Chapter 288 The Reason for the Poor Relationship between Grandparents and Grandchildren
"Be good and listen, I'm going to be gone for a while."
After a passionate and lingering kiss, he restrained himself and held her in his arms to calm his inappropriate impulse.
"You can't deny your debt when you come back."
She was still a little afraid that the past would repeat itself and it would be just another pipe dream for her.
Leng Huaijin felt a surge of guilt.
He lowered his head and rested his forehead against hers and promised, "Don't worry, I won't do anything wrong again."
In the past, he didn't understand enough how stubborn she was.
Now that he understands, he will no longer do meaningless things that will cause pain to two people.
With her, he admitted defeat.
After he simply packed up his things, Shen Weiyang went back to the kitchen.
After all, it was dark here. Although she felt very happy and satisfied being with him, she would definitely pay attention to the influences that she should pay attention to.
Moreover, if she went to see him off, it was difficult to guarantee whether she would go back with him.
She was very worried about his situation. Even though she couldn't help in any way if she went back with him, she would feel much more at ease.
But the best thing to do is for her to train well here and wait for him to come back, and then stand by him in the best possible way to help him face all the difficulties he may encounter in the future.
When she returned to the kitchen, Chef Luo was still preparing the dough for tomorrow morning. When he saw her come back, there was something strange in the look in his eyes.
Shen Weiyang felt uneasy when he stared at her: "Luo, Chef Luo, what's wrong with you?"
Chef Luo looked at her with a scrutinizing gaze, "So you're actually Old Man Lu's granddaughter?"
Shen Weiyang took a while to react: “I, I just found out some time ago that I am actually the granddaughter of the Lu family in the imperial capital who was living outside.”
Chef Luo asked curiously, "Then why are you here?"
"You'd rather work as a logistics support officer and feed the pigs here than leave. Did the Lu family ask you to help gather some information here?"
When he asked the last question, Shen Weiyang could already hear his hostility towards him.
She immediately explained: "No, I don't have much to do with the Lu family. I, I am because..."
"Why?"
"Yes, it's because, I am because..."
I came here because I like Leng Huaijin and want to pursue him.
This was the truth, but she wasn't sure if she could tell Chef Luo.
Although Chef Luo was indeed very nice to her.
But she always felt that Chef Luo was not an ordinary chef.
Unexpectedly, Chef Luo had already spoken first: "Are you like that Qiang Qiang? You followed Leng Huaijin because you liked him. That guy really has unlimited charm."
"You, you know?"
Shen Weiyang looked at Chef Luo in shock, feeling a little embarrassed.
Chef Luo understood everything. He looked at her inscrutablely and smiled, "Of course. How could you, little girl, hide such thoughts from me?"
"Master Lu, the lieutenant is here to take you back today, right?"
Since her feelings for Leng Huaijin were no longer a secret, Shen Weiyang didn't hide it at this time and said frankly: "Yes, I don't know what deep hatred the Lu family has with the Leng family. Old Lady Leng doesn't like me very much, and my brother doesn't seem to like me getting too close to Leng Huaijin."
She still hadn't forgotten the last time she broke into the Leng family estate and saw Old Lady Leng trying to catch her.
Fortunately, Lin Shutong made herself a scapegoat at that time.
Chef Luo laughed and said, "This old lady really holds a grudge. She's held it for her whole life."
Shen Weiyang was once again shocked at how much gossip Chef Luo knew: “You, you also know this?”
Chef Luo chuckled complacently and said, "It's all old gossip. It's no big deal if I tell you. It turns out that Old Lady Leng liked your grandfather back then, but Old Master Leng also liked Old Lady Leng. He's a man of his word, and whatever he likes, he'll get it. So he sent your grandmother to your grandfather to seduce him."
"Ahem, it can't be considered seduction. Anyway, it was all a combination of mistakes. In the end, your grandfather cheated on your grandmother, then broke up with Mrs. Leng and married your grandmother. Mrs. Leng was heartbroken and was forced by her family to marry Mr. Leng. Later, she hated the Lu family and felt that your grandparents had ruined her life."
"This incident caused a huge uproar in the city at the time, but because the Lu and Leng families were both among the top ten families, no one dared to say anything. Gradually, no one mentioned it, and people got used to it. Later, Old Madam Leng and Old Madam Lu would clash in public."
Does this kind of emotional entanglement exist among the older generation?
Shen Weiyang now understood why Old Lady Leng disliked her and the Lu family.
Judging from Chef Luo's statement, she was the one who was hurt the most by what happened back then.
But why did she hate Leng Huaijin? Why?
"So that's how it is. But this old lady Leng has such a bad temper. She seems so petty. She doesn't even seem to like Leng Huaijin. Could it be because Leng Huaijin's father wasn't born to her and the man she loves?"
She deliberately tried to trick him into talking, wanting to know more about Old Lady Leng's attitude towards Leng Huaijin.
This time, because of Leng Huaichen, Leng Huaijin will have a hard time after returning to the Leng family, and she is very worried.
These old stories were no secret, and Chef Luo did not hide them from her.
"You're wrong. The eldest son of the Leng family was the old lady's favorite son, whom she cherished very much. However, he and his wife died in a war more than ten years ago. Only the brothers Leng Huaijin and Leng Huaichen were sent back. It is said that the couple sacrificed themselves to protect the twins in a critical moment. The old lady hated them because of this, believing that they had killed her son, and she also had many complaints about her daughter-in-law who had not yet married into the family."
Shen Weiyang: "Unmarried daughter-in-law?"
Chef Luo: "Yes, Xu Qingwu was born a dancer. She met the eldest son of the Leng family in an entertainment club. She didn't have a good background. When the old lady finally found out that her most proud son was going to marry a prostitute, she was furious and refused to agree to them being together. Later, it happened that the eldest son of the Leng family received a mission to go to the pass, and Xu Qingwu went with him. Then, five years later, when the two were about to return, a riot broke out and they died in the riot. When the Leng family rushed there, they only had time to save the twins, Leng Huaijin and Leng Huaichen."
So that's how it was. The old lady turned her grief over losing her son into hatred for her grandson.
She felt that if it weren't for Xu Qingwu, her son would not have run away from home.
And brother Leng Huaijin, who has half of Xu Qingwu's blood in his body, is undoubtedly the only person she can hate at the moment.
She now understood better why Leng Ye was so worried that Leng Huaijin would be implicated.
