Chapter 155 Memories of Mother Lu
The door was kicked open, and Hu Xin'er saw the kicked-over stool inside, the white silk hanging from the beam, and Mother Lu with her eyes closed. She felt her heart and liver break: "Mother!"
Everyone hurriedly rescued Lu's mother from the beam. It took some time to kick the door. Hu Xiner shouted, "Go call a doctor."
Fortunately, the mansion had a regular doctor, Dr. Zhou. He rushed over with his medicine box on his back, and before he could catch his breath, he asked, "How is the old lady?"
Everyone made way for her. At this time, Lu's mother had been moved to the bed and was unconscious. Hu Xiner sat beside the bed wiping her tears.
Lu Yunjue held his mother's hand tightly and called out "Mom" in a low voice, his voice choked with sobs.
The eldest princess stood at a loss beside the bed, a little flustered, and kept recalling what she had done.
But I just can't figure out what words forced Lu's mother to commit suicide!
Doctor Zhou lifted Mrs. Lu's eyelids, examined her complexion, and repeatedly felt her pulse to confirm. Then he wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said, "Thankfully, we rescued her in time. The old lady is fine. She's just been feeling depressed lately and needs to be taken care of."
"Did something happen when you went out to visit a friend last time?" This was Lu Yunjue's first reaction.
"That... I don't know. But ever since the old lady went to visit her friend, she hasn't asked me to take her pulse again. Previously, I only did it once every ten days."
Not to mention Doctor Zhou, even his own son Lu Yunjue was rarely seen by his mother after visiting friends.
Hu Xiner looked at Lu's mother, tears falling involuntarily, feeling both regretful and sad.
This is her mother-in-law, who treats her better than her parents, and even transfers all the power of the Lu Mansion to her.
But what about her? She clearly sensed that Mother Lu was in a bad mood, but she refused to show more concern and respect.
Ever since she went to the Duke's Mansion as a companion student, she even stopped paying her respects every day. Whether Mother Lu went to see her or not was one thing, but whether she did it or not was another.
Ask yourself, if Mother Lu was her biological mother, would she be so disrespectful?
Lu Yunjue touched her head and said, "Mother is fine. Why are you crying more sadly than me?"
Hu Xin'er grabbed his clothes and cried, "It's all my fault. Mom is old and Dad passed away early. We should spend more time with her!"
Lu Yunjue felt warm in his heart. Hu Xin'er didn't care at all about how Lu's mother treated her just now. Instead, she always considered Lu's mother.
He comforted her, "It's not your fault, don't blame yourself too much."
"This is your own mother!" Hu Xiner was so angry that she wanted to hit him. Even if he had lost his memory, he shouldn't have reacted indifferently like this, right?
Lu Yunjue sighed: "What I mean is, if anyone is to blame, it should be me."
Mother’s heart is connected to hers. How could he not be worried and heartbroken when his mother hanged herself?
But in his heart, he had some other guesses. Mother Lu's hanging was definitely not as simple as it seemed. If the most fundamental reason was not solved, there was no guarantee that Mother Lu would not get into trouble next time.
The eldest princess was also frightened by Aunt Lu's sudden suicide, and her brows were full of confusion: "Don't rush to take responsibility. Who could have thought that Aunt Lu would suddenly hang herself?"
No one knew why Lu's mother committed suicide. After being treated by the doctor, Lu's mother slowly woke up, but she only asked Hu Xiner to stay and the others to leave.
Everyone went out, and the eldest princess looked back worriedly, only to see that the only people left in the room were Lu's mother and Hu Xin'er lying on the bed, and Lu Yunjue standing in front of the bed.
Lu Yunjue asked worriedly, "Mother, I..."
But he was scolded: "Why are you still staying here? Get out!"
Lu Yunjue had no choice but to close the door: "Mother is weak, don't get angry yet, Xin'er, it all depends on you."
The door creaked shut, and Hu Xin'er was puzzled: "Mom, why did your attitude towards Lu Yunjue change so drastically?"
Unexpectedly, Mother Lu actually directly admitted the contrast in her attitude towards Lu Yunjue!
She looked at the ceiling and sighed softly, "I can see that you have a deep relationship with him, so it's normal for you to worry about him."
"Did I do something wrong? Mom, if you feel uncomfortable, don't hold it in. Just tell me. I can bear it!" Hu Xin'er said sincerely.
"Don't you blame me for divorcing you?" Mother Lu looked at her deeply.
There were still marks of strangulation on her neck, and her spirit and energy were far from what they used to be. Perhaps it was because she often chanted scriptures and worshipped Buddha in the Buddhist temple, so she looked dull.
Hu Xiner vaguely remembered that the last time she saw her mother was a month ago. Even after she drove Feng Ge away, she didn't say anything.
"Even if my mother wanted to divorce me, my husband wouldn't agree." Hu Xin'er pressed her face against her mother-in-law's hand. "But you really scared me just now."
Mother Lu looked at her quietly, tears in her eyes.
When people reach a certain age, they will experience menopausal reactions as their hormones change.
Hu Xin'er was worried that Mother Lu would become depressed if she continued like this, so she said, "Mom, now that we have some free time, if you're unhappy, why not go find your sisters to chat and go shopping? Or if you don't like us, just hit us a few times. Don't hold yourself back."
Mother Lu opened her mouth and then started chattering about other things.
"Xin'er, do you know? When I gave birth to Lu Yunjue, the sunset glow in the sky was as beautiful as a painting. People say that a red glow in the sky is a good omen."
Hu Xiner was about to respond, but she heard sobs in her words.
She thought that Mother Lu was immersed in her own thoughts at the moment and perhaps all she needed was a listener, so she listened quietly.
Lu's mother also talked about how Lu Yunjue was very handsome when he was a child, and everyone who saw him praised him for his beauty.
Hu Xiner felt sorry for Lu's mother, so she didn't interrupt until Lu's mother talked about Lu Yunjue's disappearance, and her expression became complicated.
She asked Hu Xin'er in a mysterious tone, "I wonder if you can bear what I'm about to say..."
A strange light suddenly burst out from his originally dim eyes, and his hand suddenly grasped Hu Xiner tightly.
Hu Xin'er was so frightened that she almost cried out. She knew that if she cried out now, Lu Yunjue would definitely rush in. But in the end, her trust in Lu's mother overwhelmed her fear...
After a while, Hu Xiner came out of the house with her head lowered.
The eldest princess came up and asked curiously, "What did Aunt Lu say when she left you alone in the room? Is she still planning to divorce you?"
"What?" Hu Xin'er was a little dazed.
Seeing that Hu Xiner looked unhappy, Lu Yunjue held her hand with concern.
Hu Xin'er forced a smile at the princess and said, "You go back first. I want to have a private conversation with Lu Yunjue."
Although the eldest princess had some doubts in her heart, she curled her lips and left when she saw Hu Xiner's firm attitude.
After everyone left, Hu Xin'er didn't say anything, but turned over the male protagonist's right wrist, and her expression became uglier the more she looked at it.
"Xin'er, what's wrong?" Lu Yunjue noticed that she looked upset and asked seriously, "What did mother say?"
Hu Xiner was silent for a while, and then relayed to him what Lu's mother had said. He was not Lu Yunjue!
