The original owner was incredibly proud, boasting to everyone she met about how outstanding her son was…
She made such a fuss that the whole village knew her family had become wealthy.
Some people joked:
"Sister-in-law Lu, your son is so outstanding, why don't you bring him to the city to enjoy a comfortable life?"
The original owner couldn't save face, so she lied and said that her son had asked her to go, but she refused because she couldn't get used to city life.
"Then why doesn't he send money back to renovate the old house?"
The original owner held her head high and proudly said that her son had bought a house in a big city. She felt sorry for her son working hard to earn money and having to pay the mortgage, and did not want to add to his burden.
Children and grandchildren have their own blessings. She's old now, and she's lived in this dilapidated house for most of her life; she's grown attached to it.
She spoke flawlessly.
Although that's what I really thought, and I was prepared to refuse.
However, Lu Chengming never explicitly stated that he wanted to repair the house.
They didn't even give her a chance to refuse.
The original owner had some concerns.
Has my son gotten too cocky?
I may not need it myself, but the other person can't refuse to give it to me...

The original owner started bombarding the other party with phone calls, always managing to catch them when they were busy, either socializing or working overtime.
The impatience in his voice was almost palpable.
"Mom! I've told you so many times, don't call me anymore, wait for me to call you! Can't you just call Xiaofang if anything happens?! I've already told you I'm busy, I'm busy!!"
"Beep beep beep..."
The original owner felt very bad, but understood.
My son is busy with work, earning money...
My daughter-in-law has an easy job, so I have time to answer her phone every day.
She was thinking about when she could go to the city and experience city life.
However, when Lu Chengming learned of her idea, he was extremely unwilling and used the same excuse: he was busy with work and told her not to cause trouble.
Five years after their marriage, the couple worked together to go from poverty to a comfortable life, and Qin Fang finally started to get pregnant.
Lu Chengming took this opportunity to persuade her to resign and return to her hometown to rest during her pregnancy.
This killed two birds with one stone, dispelling the original owner's plan to go to the city to take care of the pregnant woman.
