"We're talking about Yu Xiaozhi and his wife."
Upon hearing that it was her eldest son and Jiang Yue, Lu's mother's smile faded somewhat.
She came back precisely to talk to the old lady about Jiang Yue.
"Mom, I heard someone talk about something before."
Mrs. Lu was afraid that if others in the compound found out that Jiang Yue had disappeared and been abducted, the Lu family would be utterly disgraced.
But if she asked her eldest son about this, he would definitely protect Jiang Yue. So she decided to talk to her mother-in-law first, since her sister-in-law was also there. She didn't believe her sister-in-law could tolerate such a humiliating situation.
"What did you hear about?" Grandma Lu looked up at Lu's mother.
“My friend said that last month, the police in Xiangcheng and Jiangcheng cracked a major case involving human trafficking. One of the girls involved was from Beijing and had gone to Xiangcheng to join the army.”
When Lu Xiaogu heard this, she was somewhat surprised.
"Is that girl alright?"
Lu's mother looked at Lu's grandmother. She thought, "She's said such things, yet my mother-in-law is still so calm and collected. This reaction is really strange."
"That girl's name is Jiang Yue."
What?
Lu Xiaogu looked at her sister-in-law in surprise.
"That's impossible."
My nephew and Jiang Yue have such a great relationship now. If something like this really happened, my parents would definitely have heard about it by now. They wouldn't be sitting here so calmly.
If Jiang Yue really disappeared, her aunt and the others wouldn't be able to sit still.
Lu Yu and Jiang Shan's group must have rushed over and rescued Jiang Yue long ago.
"It's probably just someone with the same name," Aunt Lu comforted her. "Maybe someone is deliberately spreading this rumor to smear Jiang Yue's reputation. Sister-in-law, you mustn't fall for it..."
Looking at her sister-in-law, Lu's mother felt that her sister-in-law was being too naive. Did she really need people to smear her? It was already a fact.
"Mom, there's no smoke without fire in this matter. Our Lu family can't afford to have anyone framed..."
Before Lu's mother could finish speaking, a loud bang rang out, startling her so much that she immediately stopped talking.
"By what?"
Grandma Lu looked at Lu's mother with a serious expression and a stern tone.
"You are the eldest daughter-in-law of the Lu family. How can you listen to outsiders and start doubting the innocence of your eldest granddaughter-in-law? Or do you want to take this opportunity to make your son and Jiang Yue divorce quickly and then choose a daughter-in-law who suits your taste?"
"Mom, you've misunderstood me. I'm worried about the Lu family's reputation. There are all sorts of rumors going around, some really nasty," Mrs. Lu said, her face full of grievance and tears welling up in her eyes, as if she had been misunderstood by Mrs. Lu.
"This matter cannot possibly be true. The eldest granddaughter-in-law of the Lu family can only be Jiang Yue. There can be no one else but Jiang Yue."
What?
What's so great about Jiang Yue? She is undeniably beautiful, but aside from her face, what else does she have that can compare to the other girls from the compound?
Could it be that just because of the relationship between the Lu family and the Jiang family, they want to tie his son to Jiang Yue for life?
This is her son. Why can't she even make decisions about her son's wife?
She didn't like this daughter-in-law. What good qualities did Jiang Yue, a high school student, have besides her bad temper and being spoiled?
Now when she goes out, people talk about Jiang Yue, and the implication is always that it's a pity about Lu Yu.
"Mom, the most important thing right now is to find out the truth about this matter."
