It wasn't that she didn't want to buy better things, but she simply didn't have any money at home, so she was picking up the vegetables that others didn't want.
Looking at the aged Lu Shi and the yellowed vegetables, Lu Heng felt disgusted from the bottom of his heart.
"Mother, didn't Father say that everything in the Peng family should be inherited by me?"
"How about I change my surname to Lu?"
He knew he had nowhere else to go.
Unless Shang Tian agrees, it will be in vain for him to escape anywhere.
Abandoning the Lu family is out of the question; if he were to actually do that, Shang Tian would definitely kill him.
Madam Lu looked at Lu Heng in surprise, "Everything in the Peng family should belong to your younger brother, how can you think like that?"
She never imagined that her son would have such thoughts.
Lu Heng looked at her and asked, "Mother, didn't you say that I could have half of my brother's things?"
Now that my brother is gone, it's only right that I keep his half safe, isn't it?
Seeing that Madam Lu was still hesitating, he turned his head away and said with a hint of suppressed emotion, "Mother, if this continues, you will die of illness."
Mother, I can't live without you.
Hearing her son's words, Mrs. Lu was tempted.
They have no money at home and can't even afford to eat now. If she and Heng'er really died, how heartbroken they would be if they didn't come back.
"We're just keeping it for your brother for the time being."
Hearing her agree, Lu Heng breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Of course, Mother. When we get home, we'll ask a doctor to come and give you a proper check-up."
Seeing that her son was only worried about her and not thinking about anything else, Madam Lu was very gratified.
She stood up and said, "Let's go find the prince now, it's better to move back sooner."
She was tired of eating such simple meals.
Lu Heng naturally agreed. He helped Lu Shi to her feet and they headed towards the Shang family home.
Upon arriving at the entrance of Shangtian, Madam Lu seemed somewhat uneasy. "Should we... reschedule for another day?"
Seeing Madam Lu like this, Lu Heng sighed and said, "Mother, you coughed again last night."
When can we reschedule?
He knocked on the door, and when Shang Tian opened it and saw them, he frowned. "What do you want?"
Seeing Lu's aged appearance, he stepped aside to let the two of them into the house.
Su Qian suddenly looked up, saw the two of them, and asked, "What brings you here?"
Madam Lu and Lu Heng respectfully bowed to Su Qian and her husband, saying, "I would like Heng'er to change his surname to Peng."
Su Qian nodded, "Then let's change it."
What business is it of theirs?
What do you want with them?
Seeing that Su Qian did not object, Madam Lu continued, "Then Heng'er is my husband's eldest son, and the Peng family..." should also be inherited by Lu Heng.
Upon hearing her words, Su Qian almost cursed out loud, "What a biased old woman!"
The eldest son is her biological child, but isn't the youngest son hers too?
"What about Peng Buwang?" Shang Tian asked with a dark face.
He had some tolerance for Peng San, but this tolerance was only passed on to his obedient and well-behaved son.
As for this woman he doted on, who was always causing trouble, well...
“When he comes back, everything will be his,” Madam Lu said with complete confidence.
Shang Tian nodded, "Then we'll just wait for him to come back and give it to him directly."
Why go through all that trouble?
"But..." Now the mother and child are starving to death.
Lu didn't know how to say these words.
Seeing that she was hesitant again, Lu Heng said urgently, "Now my son and I can only survive by picking up rotten vegetable leaves every day. Please, Your Highness, return our house."
