"Mom, I know what you want to say, but my dad married a stepmother, and there is no place for me in that family anymore."
"Have you ever received a letter from home in all the time I've been in the countryside? There's no place for me back home, so I won't go back. Isn't it nice for our family to live here?"
Lu Zheng was very resistant to going home. Wang Hua heard it and didn't intend to care about it anymore.
Come to think of it, it would be awkward for a child born to the original wife to live in a family with a stepmother.
"You know it yourself!"
Xiao Ru ran into the yard and ran around, then excitedly grabbed Lu Zheng's clothes.
"Lu Zheng, eat roast duck!"
Lu Zheng's depressed mood just now disappeared. His little girl was just a sweet girl. She didn't take anything to heart. As soon as she came back here, she was thinking about eating roast duck!
Wang Hua said angrily, "Why are you fooling around like that? We've just settled down, we should clean up the yard first. When can't we eat roast duck?"
Lu Zheng took Xiao Ru's hand.
The house certainly needed some serious tidying up, but it wasn't anything major.
Yue Yao helped to arrange the things he sent, and it would take about an afternoon to finish.
"Mom, Ru'er was so upset on the train. I was the one who coaxed her to eat roast duck. Since I promised her, of course I have to do it. Let's put down our things and go eat roast duck!"
Wang Hua put down what she was holding and took a look at the small glutinous rice dumpling.
This kid is so pitiful. Originally, his mother had milk to drink, but after his father interrupted him, he could only drink cow's milk.
"Let's go!"
Father Xiao brushed the dust off his clothes and had no choice but to follow.
Lu Zheng knew a place to eat roast duck, so he took his family in.
The roast duck was golden and crispy. Xiao Ru couldn't take her eyes off it when she saw it, and there was a suspicious smile at the corner of her mouth.
"Little greedy cat!"
Lu Zheng tapped her nose happily.
The family ate happily and ate two roast ducks.
But when it came time to pay the bill, Wang Hua felt a little distressed. These two roast ducks were equivalent to an ordinary worker's monthly salary, right?
Only this young couple has some confidence, otherwise who would be willing to eat like this!
The family was about to go out, but Lu Zheng stopped there.
She was a pretty woman who seemed to be quite old, with wrinkles starting to appear at the corners of her eyes.
The other party seemed to have not expected to see Lu Zheng here. She was stunned for a moment, and then a sarcastic smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, which was incompatible with her weak temperament.
"Lu Zheng? I didn't expect you to come back. Now that you're back, why don't you go home and see your dad?"
"Aren't you being a little too unfilial?"
Lu Zheng glanced at him coldly: "Isn't this exactly what you want?"
"You can go back today and tell that Lao Deng how unfilial his son is. He came all the way back without even visiting him."
"My family's connections and assets must all be passed on to filial sons. An unfilial son like me will be left with nothing."
"Logically speaking, my actions are exactly what you want. Shouldn't you thank me?"
Just a few words made it clear that this woman was most likely Lu Zheng's stepmother.
Xiao Ru looked him up and down.
When I was a little locust tree, I also heard many animals gossiping around her.
The woman in front of me has charming and seductive features in her eyes and eyebrows, but she looks innocent and simple.
