"Yao'er, it was Second Uncle who was greedy. It was Second Uncle who was wrong..."
Lu Zeyi collapsed in Yun Zhou's arms and spoke weakly.
"Wrong?"
Lu Yao turned from Nuan Yu's arms to face the half-dead Lu Zeyi, and caught a glimpse of the open box in front of the tombstone out of the corner of her eye.
"Can one wrong word bring my parents and my brother back to life? Killing someone means paying with your life!"
"I will pay with my life! Second uncle came to your father's grave today to confess and forgive his sins."
"Don't call yourself Second Uncle in front of me!" Lu Yao roared with hatred: "You don't deserve it!"
Lu Zeyi's heart sank, and the image of the well-behaved, cute and lovable little Lu Yao pulling at his sleeve suddenly appeared in his mind.
"Uncle, please help me hide this candied haws. Don't let my father find it. He won't let me eat too much."
"Yao'er, you really can't eat too much. Eating too much will cause your teeth to rot."
Little Lu Yao tugged at Lu Zeyi's sleeve and shook it, and said in a baby voice, "Second Uncle, my good Second Uncle, you said you would spoil me, so please help me hide it, okay?"
Lu Zeyi's heart melted when he saw the cute little Lu Yao. "Okay, okay, Second Uncle really can't do anything with you. I'll hide you now. Don't forget to come to Second Uncle's yard to eat candied haws when you return home. However, this is only this time. After all, eating too much sugar is bad for your teeth."
Xiao Luyao smiled sweetly, "I knew Second Uncle doted on me the most. I promise I won't steal candied haws next time."
......The warm scenes of the uncle and nephew getting along emerged before his eyes like mushrooms after rain in a few breaths.
Facing Lu Yao, who was filled with anger and hatred at this moment, tears suddenly welled up in Lu Zeyi's eyes.
What he did over the years not only failed to get the position of the head of the Lu family, but also made him lose the most precious thing.
Now that I realize it, I let my own selfish desires get the better of me.
Seeing him crying, Lu Yao felt even worse.
He still has the nerve to cry!
"Since you've come here to die as an atonement, then do it!"
Lu Yao said this mercilessly, turned around, and saw Lu Hangan with a stunned expression in the distance.
When Lu Hangan saw Lu Yao looking at him, he quickly hid behind a tree. He didn't know how to face Lu Yao.
His father actually murdered his uncle!
The uncle who doted on him the most!
How dare his father?!
He's his father's biological brother, how could he kill his own brother?!
Lu Yao frowned slightly. He must have seen her beating and forcing his father...
It doesn't matter.
Lu Zeyi deserves to die!
"Brother-in-law, I'll wait for you in the carriage. If we take too long, my sister will be worried."
Lu Zeyi looked at Lu Yao's receding figure, opened his mouth, but had nothing to say.
"Second Uncle." Si Chuyu habitually called out without a trace of emotion, "Since you know what the Luo and Ye families did back then, does Fourth Uncle know about it too? Was he involved in it?"
Lu Zeyi said: "Fourth brother always likes to turn a blind eye..."
His fourth brother knew very well that smuggling iron ore would be a capital crime if discovered.
At first, Lu Zeyu just tried to persuade him not to do it, saying that he would be beheaded if he was discovered.
Seeing that he was determined to do this, his fourth brother stopped trying to persuade him.
He gave his fourth brother the silver he earned from smuggling iron ore, and he just symbolically refused it before accepting it.
Lu Zeyi had to say that his fourth brother was smart.
Now that the truth has been revealed, he can't blame his fourth brother. After all, his fourth brother had tried to persuade him earnestly, but he didn't listen.
Perhaps, his fourth brother had this idea in mind when he accepted the money he sent with peace of mind.
Lu Yuan's medicine had been tampered with. He remembered that his fourth brother had only tried to persuade him.
Si Chuyu's eyes darkened. Lu Zeyu was really a man who did bad things without knowing it, but he still got a lot of benefits!
What a mean guy!
"It's getting late, let's get started."
Si Chuyu took the three-piece death suit that Ling Xiao had prepared for Lu Zeyi.
He was worried about what Lu Zeyi had prepared.
Yun Zhou frowned unconsciously when he saw this.
It's impossible for him to do anything.
"Master Si, please spare my master's life. He knows he's wrong." Yun Zhou immediately knelt before Si Chuyu. "I'm willing to die for my master!"
Si Chuyu was a little surprised. This man was even more loyal than Chen Ji and was willing to die for Lu Zeyi.
Si Chuyu snorted coldly, "You think you can get away with it? My father-in-law's death, didn't you know about it and didn't you participate?"
"I……"
Yun Zhou had nothing to say, he really knew.
"Since you want to die so badly, then you and your servant will die together in front of my father-in-law's grave today to atone for your sins!"
"Yunzhou, you are making trouble! My godson still needs your care!"
"Chu Yu, Chen Ji and Yun Zhou were all following orders. The culprit is me!"
After saying this, Lu Zeyi picked up a white ceramic bottle from the box.
He knelt again in front of the tombstone of the family of three and kowtowed solemnly three times.
"Brother, Second Brother was really wrong."
After saying this, Lu Zeyi opened the bottle and was about to drink it in one gulp.
"father!"
Lu Han hesitated for a long time before finally showing up and stopping him.
Whether his father was smuggling iron ore or murdering his uncle, all of these crimes were punishable by death.
He could not plead for him to be acquitted.
As his son, I could only send him off personally.
When Lu Zeyi saw Lu Han Gan show up, he seemed to have lost his soul and instantly lost his vitality.
Finally, his son knew his worst side.
Lu Han squatted down and hugged him, whispering in his ear, "No matter what mistakes you've made, I have no right to judge you. Now that you've admitted your crimes in front of your uncle's tombstone and are willing to die to atone for them, you're still my good father."
"Godson, it's Dad who is sorry for you."
Si Chuyu frowned. He was not here to witness this scene of life and death.
He urged unkindly, "It's getting late, it's time to get going."
Lu Zeyi hugged Lu Han tightly and said, "Son, live well. Your father has committed serious sins and must pay the price for his actions. Yunzhou, take the young master away quickly."
"father!"
I saw Lu Zeyi kneeling in front of the tombstone and drinking a bottle of poison in one gulp. He was gone within a few breaths...
Lu Han watched Lu Zeyi slowly close his eyes in front of him, his expression painful, but not a single tear shed.
He only knew that his biological parents were gone...
"Sister Yao'er, let's go back."
Lu Yao looked at Lu Han's back for a long time, then lowered the car window curtain.
"Nuanyu, the truth about my father's death must not be told to anyone, not even my sister and the others."
"My lady, I will keep my mouth shut and won't say a single word!"
How could Nuanyu dare to tell anyone? If her young lady hadn't asked her to secretly monitor her brother-in-law, her brother-in-law would have kept it a secret from everyone.
Her young lady had just nearly suffered a relapse of her madness, and her eldest daughter was pregnant. If she knew about this, the consequences would be disastrous!
