Meng Yunji is so well-behaved!
He would listen to his older sister without question.
So, the matter was simply brushed aside.
The little guy immediately assured her, "I know, sis. Don't worry, I definitely won't say a word."
Meng Fuyan patted his little head with satisfaction, "Good boy! If you are really pressed for answers, just say that they are all gone. Anyway, you are a child, so it doesn't matter whether you tell the truth or not."
Meng Yunji kept it in mind and took it very seriously.
Meng Fuyan couldn't help but chuckle; the little guy was so easy to fool!
They boiled water, cleaned the room, wiped away the dust, made the bed, and washed up. It was getting late, so they went to bed.
That night, the siblings slept in the same bed.
After suppressing his emotions for so many days, Meng Yunji was extremely happy to be at home, hugging a warm blanket, and staying with his sister!
"Sis, I'm so happy! We're finally home!"
Meng Fuyan looked at her younger brother beside her and felt a pang of heartache. He had indeed had a hard time these past few days, having to go through so much at such a young age.
"Yes, we're home now. From now on, this home belongs to just the two of us. No one will ever take over our home again. This year, we'll celebrate the New Year at home."
Meng Yunji nodded vigorously, "Yes, we'll make New Year's Eve dinner together. Sister, you continue to teach me how to cook, and I'll cook something delicious for you during the New Year."
"OK!"
Thinking about his previous reaction, Meng Fuyan still wanted to ask clearly, "Yunji, what happened when you called me earlier? Did something happen at the Lu family? Did Aunt Lu... say something to you?"
Meng Yunji lowered his head and remained silent.
Meng Fuyan comforted her, "Listen to me, tell your sister clearly that Aunt Lu has never liked us and is often sarcastic. Uncle Lu and the three brothers are indeed very good, but I know what kind of person Aunt Lu is. You don't need to hide it from me."
"Explain it clearly to your sister so that she will be aware of things and take precautions in the future."
Meng Yunji obediently repeated what Qin Qiongying had said. He huddled in the blankets, hugged Meng Fuyan's arm, and leaned on her shoulder. "Sister, why does Aunt Lu dislike us? Uncle Lu and my three brothers are all very, very good to us. I feel that Uncle Lu is more like a father to us than Dad. We haven't offended Aunt Lu, have we?"
Meng Fuyan knew perfectly well that Qin Qiongying disliked them, but there were some things she couldn't tell Meng Yunji.
Not at least not now, he's too young.
"You're still too young to understand many things. Uncle Lu treats us so well, like his own children. Aunt Lu must be unhappy! What woman would want her husband to like someone else's child? She'd rather use that energy to take care of her own child!"
"Maybe it's because Uncle Lu is so good to us that Aunt Lu is jealous, and that's why she doesn't like us. But you don't need to be afraid of her. You'll be living with my sister from now on, and she'll take care of you. We don't need to live at the Lu family's house. As for how Uncle Lu usually takes care of us, that's nothing. It's just mutual help. When Grandpa was alive, he helped Uncle Lu a lot. Now that Uncle Lu is helping us, when we grow up, we'll help Uncle Lu too, right?"
Meng Yunji nodded, "Yes, I will also be good to Uncle Lu."
Meng Fuyan smiled, "That's right. If Aunt Lu doesn't like us, then we should just stay away from her in the future. There's no need to worry about her."
"good!"
The siblings chatted for a while and then fell asleep quickly. Staying at home always makes them feel very safe. For Meng Yunji, this was the most peaceful sleep he had had since his mother passed away.
The two slept until dawn. After waking up, they went to the kitchen to make breakfast. After breakfast, Meng Yun stayed at home. The second and third floors were not cleaned. The New Year was coming soon, and this New Year was very important to the siblings. They planned to clean everything.
So Meng Yun stayed at home to clean her room, while Meng Fuyan took some letters and went to find Lu Jianjun.
Those letters were some of those that were found during a search of Wu Guozhu's study.
She knew the contents of this book from her past life, but outsiders didn't. Now that Wu Guozhu was in trouble, it was the perfect opportunity to bring it out.
She didn't go to the Lu family home, but went directly to Lu Jianjun's office.
The people at the factory were quite surprised to see her return and greeted her warmly.
Meng Fuyan walked into Lu Jianjun's office.
Upon seeing her arrive, Lu Jianjun smiled and said, "Yanyan! It's good to see you back. Is it convenient for you to stay at home? There's hardly any furniture left in your place. There was a meeting at the factory yesterday that went on very late, otherwise I would have picked you up from the train station."
Meng Fuyan smiled and said, "Brother Xingye went to pick me up. Uncle Lu, you're so busy, you don't need to worry about these little things. I'm all grown up now and can take care of myself."
"As for the house, there is really not much furniture left on the first floor, and there is still a little bit left upstairs. Now it's just me and Yunji at home. Without those eyesores, we are living in our own home. Don't be too happy, Uncle Lu, don't worry about us."
Lu Jianjun nodded, "That's good. If we need more furniture, we can just have some made. There's plenty of time later, we can add more gradually."
Meng Fuyan took out the letter she had brought and handed it to Lu Jianjun. "Uncle Lu, I heard that the Zhang family and the Wu family have been investigated, and the situation is quite serious. I have some letters here that my father had corresponded with other people before. See if they are of any use to you."
Lu Jianjun was taken aback, then quickly took the letter and opened it to take a look.
"Where did you get all this? Wasn't your house completely robbed before?"
Meng Fuyan replied, "I stole this before the incident at home. I know the situation at home quite well. That study used to be my maternal grandfather's study, and I know its layout very well."
“Actually, I started to doubt my father when he brought his stepmother's family into our home and was so biased towards them. Before my mother passed away, she also warned me to be careful. When I was signed up to go to the countryside and my father still indulged me, I knew something was wrong. He always wanted the rent money I had and wanted to send me to the countryside. Then I would have no one to rely on. If he tried to kill me, the Meng family would really fall into his hands.”
"So, after I learned that I was going to the countryside, the first thing I did was go to his study, thinking that it would be best to find something that could threaten him, so that I could negotiate with him if necessary. This is what I found in the study. The house being robbed came later."
Lu Jianjun was so angry after reading those letters that he wanted to shoot Wu Guozhu right then and there!
