Although she had never hoped for any other children, this child came along, and she didn't want to be a heartless mother.
But if she doesn't abort the child, she'll die.
It was only then that she realized her house was decorated in white.
"Yunzhou, him?"
"Eldest daughter-in-law, you decide, and I won't interfere with your decision, but your life must be the priority. Our Lu family doesn't need you to lose your life for the sake of carrying on the family line," Lu Rong said weakly.
Sister-in-law Lu looked at her mother-in-law with gratitude.
"Wife, Yunzhou is gone."
"Brother, you stay with sister-in-law first. Mother-in-law and I can go to the cemetery." After much deliberation, Qiao Wanyue made this decision, as someone needed to take care of the family.
Moreover, the Yang family is eyeing them covetously. They will not stop fighting because of Lu Yunzhou's death. On the contrary, they will fight even more fiercely and take advantage of the chaos to plunder.
Lu Mantang also arrived with his family.
"Rongrong, let Lu Heng go with you. You two are an orphan and a widow, and you can't go on without a man to take care of you. It's too chaotic on the train. I know Wanyue is smart, but you'll have limited manpower. If you encounter any trouble, you'll be in trouble without anyone to help you." Lu Mantang rushed over as soon as he heard that his nephew had died.
Lu Rong thought for a moment, then said, "Okay, thank you, cousin."
Lu Mantang said, "There's no need for thanks among family."
After a brief discussion, Qiao Wanyue, Lu Rong, and Lu Heng set off together, while Lu Heng stayed home to take care of his wife and children. They had contacted the military region in advance, and the people there, knowing they were coming, paused for a moment before promising to receive them.
They planned to set off the next day.
In rural areas, when families hold funerals, they usually hire an opera troupe to perform and hang white paper money. However, Lu Yunzhou's grave is not here, so after discussing it, they decided not to hold such a big ceremony and instead have the relatives go to the cemetery to pay their respects.
"Sister, is there anything I can help you with?"
Qiao Wanyue was tidying up her things in the yard, while Qiao Shanshan sat on the wall, eating melon seeds and watching her with schadenfreude.
"Little sister, are you happy?"
Qiao Shanshan could barely suppress the smile on her face.
"Is there?"
Qiao Shanshan threw a sunflower seed into her mouth, spat out the shell, and the shell landed in the Lu family's yard. The ground, which had just been swept clean, now had a few incongruous pieces of trash.
"Of course—" Qiao Wanyue picked up a broom and swung it at the person on the wall. The broom seemed to have a locator on it, hitting Qiao Shanshan directly on the head, causing her to fall backward.
Ouch
Clang
Qiao Shanshan fell flat on her face.
Qiao Wanyue's gaze fell on the neighboring courtyard. The Yang family would definitely take the opportunity to cause trouble. If she wanted them to behave themselves for a while during their absence and not cause trouble for her elder brother, then she would have to let them make a mess of things on their own first.
Qiao Wanyue's eyes darted around.
She grabbed a hoe and stormed into the Yang family's house without saying a word. She started smashing things, and anyone who resisted was hit with the hoe. She was no match for Yang Dacui, but just as Yang Dacui was about to smash things, Lu Yunqi arrived. Anyone who dared to lay a hand on her was kicked away by Lu Yunqi.
In other people's eyes, Qiao Wanyue was a widow who had just lost her husband, and Qiao Shanshan was sitting on the wall of her house gloating. What's wrong with her throwing a tantrum?
Qiao Wanyue smashed things like a madwoman. She smashed things in a very systematic way. First, she went to the kitchen and, while the Yang family was away, put all the meat, eggs, and valuables into her spatial storage.
Next, she went to Yang's mother's room. Yang's mother hid the money on the roof beam. The Yang family's house had wooden beams that were about two meters high. She stood on a stool to reach the beam and used the stool to take all the baskets down from the beam.
Her eyes lit up when she saw what was in the basket: three gold bars, several pearls, and emeralds. She placed her hand on it, and the basket vanished instantly. Qiao Wanyue then dug up all the other places where treasures were hidden and stored them all in her spatial storage.
When she left Yang's mother's room, she smashed everything in the room with a hoe.
