Du Ningyang couldn't help but frown when he heard this. He didn't expect that his wife would accidentally let the cat out of the bag. He couldn't stop worrying. In order to ask Mr. Gu for help, they promised Mr. Gu to keep this matter secret, but they never thought that it would be leaked out inadvertently. What should they do?
Du Kang, who was sitting on the side, understood what his mother said. It turned out that his mother let the secret of Uncle Gu slip out of a moment of weakness. "Mom, how could you let it slip? Uncle Lu and others saved me before because of Grandpa Lin and my grandfather. Now if the news leaks out, it may be used as a bargaining chip by Lu's political enemies. Wouldn't our family be considered ungrateful?" Du Kang became more and more excited as he spoke. He didn't understand the twists and turns, but he couldn't do anything ungrateful, and his voice became louder and louder.
Xu Lifang let it slip when she saw Mrs. Hai crying. She hadn't thought about it at the time: "Ningyang, Xiaokang, I'm sorry. Seeing Manqian crying like that reminded me of the time when you had the accident. I..."
Seeing his mother like this, Du Kang also felt that his words were a bit harsh, so he quickly lowered his voice and said, "Okay, Mom, I know I said it a bit harshly. I'm sorry." Then he quickly asked his father for a solution: "Dad, why don't you see if you can make amends? If not, I will go to Uncle Gu's house to apologize. After all, we didn't do our promise to him."
When Du Ningyang heard his son say this, he knew that this was something his family had done that was not authentic, but now this was the only solution: "Well, let's go together!"
Xu Lifang also knew that she was indeed a bit impulsive: "Is this okay?"
Du Ningyang looked at his wife and nodded, saying, "This is the only way."
The next day, Du Ningyang and his family of three went to Gu's house with a gift of apology.
In the Gu family compound on Changning Street, Lu Zhenchuan woke up and kissed the forehead of the person in his arms, then got up, dressed, and went to the kitchen to cook for the family. When he came out after cooking, he saw Lu Haoyu washing his and Gu Yu'an's clothes.
Lu Zhenchuan brought breakfast to the table and said, "Come and eat."
"Oh, I'll come over after I hang up the clothes." Lu Haoyu hung up the rest of the clothes before walking over, sitting on the chair, picking up the chopsticks and eating.
Lu Zhenchuan looked at Lu Haoyu and said, "An An is still sleeping."
"Yeah." Lu Haoyu responded, his eyes flickering, but he quickly concealed it. He picked up a piece of pickled vegetables with chopsticks and ate it with the porridge.
Lu Zhenchuan looked up at Lu Yuhao and asked, "What happened to An An last night? Did she make a fuss?"
Lu Haoyu said: "Not bad."
Lu Zhenchuan picked up the bowl and took a sip of porridge: "That's fine."
After the uncle and nephew finished breakfast, Lu Haoyu quietly cleaned up the dishes and washed them, while Lu Zhenchuan went to wash his and his wife's clothes.
Lu Zhenchuan had just finished washing the clothes when he heard a knock on the door. Lu Haoyu, who was reading a book nearby, also heard the knock on the door, so he put the book on the table and went to open the door.
Lu Zhenchuan wrung out the clothes and hung them on the clothesline. "Who is Haoyu? Why are you knocking on my door so early in the morning?"
After Lu Haoyu opened the door, he saw Du Kang standing at the door with gifts. He shouted to them, "Uncle Du, Aunt Xu." Then he opened the door.
Du Ningyang and the others hadn't expected that the person who would open the door would be Lu Zhenlang's youngest son. Although they didn't know why Luo Haoyu lived here, they still smiled and said, "It's Haoyu, we're here to look for your fifth uncle."
"Come in!"
Lu Zhenchuan had just finished hanging up the clothes when he saw the person coming. "Brother Du, what are you doing?"
Du Ningyang placed the gift box on the table and stated his purpose: "We are here to apologize to Qinchuan today."
There was a hint of a smile in Lu Zhenchuan's deep eyes: "Apologize?" He couldn't remember what the Du family had done to offend them.
At this time, Du Gang walked out and bowed to Lu Zhenchuan: "Uncle Lu, we are sorry, we accidentally leaked the news that Uncle Gu treated me." Then Du Ningyang told Lu Zhenchuan the whole story from beginning to end. Lu Haoyu sat quietly at the table listening to what happened, without any expression on his face?
After hearing this, Lu Zhenchuan's face instantly turned cold and he asked, "Did the Hai family know about this?"
Du Ningyang explained with an apologetic and guilty look in his eyes: "Not yet, but it should be soon. After all, the Xiaokang incident was quite a big deal back then. I'm really sorry."
At this time, Gu Ranzhou opened the door and walked out of the room: "Zhenchuan!" Gu Ranzhou had just woken up and was still a little confused. He didn't care at all whether there were any guests at home.
Lu Zhenchuan's eyes were a bit cold when he looked at Gu Ranzhou, but soon they turned into tenderness: "Zhou Zhou, you're awake! Are you hungry? I'll bring you breakfast."
Gu Ranzhou nodded in agreement, "Yes!" When he regained consciousness, he realized there were a few strangers in his house. "Mr. Du, are you coming to Chenchuan for something?"
Du Ningyang didn't expect that the other party had just woken up: "No, no, no, I came to see you."
Upon hearing this, Gu Ranzhou asked with a puzzled look on his face: "Me? Is there something important that made you come here so early in the morning?" He remembered that apart from the time when he treated Du Kang, he had nothing to do with the people of the Du family. Now that the people of the Du family came to find him, it was most likely that something had happened, otherwise they would not come to him for no reason.
Du Kang once again stood up and apologized: "I'm sorry, Uncle Gu."
Seeing this, Gu Ranzhou frowned and asked in confusion, "What do you mean?"
Lu Zhenchuan sighed softly and explained to his wife why they had come. Gu Ranzhou seemed to understand and then frowned, "Okay, I understand."
The three members of the Du family knew that it was not a good time to stay here for long, so they had to say goodbye and leave first.
"Then we'll take our leave first. Goodbye, Uncle Gu!"
“Slow down!”
After seeing off the family of three, Gu Ranzhou sat on the chair without saying a word until Lu Zhenchuan brought out breakfast. At this time, Gu Yu'an also walked out of the room.
Lu Zhenchuan asked worriedly, "Zhou Zhou, are you okay?"
Gu Ranzhou shook his head and sat quietly at the table, explaining, "What could be the problem? I'm just a little irritated."
"An An, come and eat!"
"good!"
"Oh... let them do this." Lu Zhenchuan sighed, but held his breath and didn't leave. "Zhou Zhou, don't be angry. I will handle it. This time I didn't think it through. I will pay more attention next time."
Gu Ranzhou was too lazy to speak. It was not that he didn't want to, but since the incident had already happened, they had nothing to hide. After all, they didn't try to hide it after it happened, and anyone who was interested could find out with a quick investigation.
