Chapter 476 Extra: Previous
Life Yaoshui Village produced a big man like Lu Mingfeng, who expanded his business to the whole country and even abroad.
But he was unwilling to return to his hometown to help build his hometown.
The whole Yaoshui Village scolded Lu Mingfeng for being ungrateful, saying that Yaoshui Village raised him, but he did not know how to repay, so Yaoshui Village is still a poor village.
Zhou Min passed by after finishing his farm work and heard the villagers talking about Lu Mingfeng again. He said with a cold face: "Has Second Brother ever eaten a single bite of rice from your family, or drank a sip of water from your family? Whose kindness has he forgotten, and whose righteousness has he betrayed?
You guys, who are well-fed and have nothing to do, say bad things about him behind his back every day. If you have the guts, say it to his face and see if Second Brother will beat the shit out of you!"
"We didn't say that first. It was your family that said it. We were just saying it behind their back for fun."
The old village chief came over and told Zhou Min not to bother with these people.
"They were fooled by that old fellow Lu Yongsheng. Go back and persuade your father-in-law not to believe your uncle's lies.
They are the whole family sucking blood from your family. The living expenses that Mingfeng sends every month go into their pockets.
They used Mingfeng's money and ruined its reputation. I have never seen such shameless people.
Don't be provoked by them. Mingfeng and Mingqi are brothers. If he is willing to help you, your family can get out of this poor little mountain village."
...
Zhou Min thought of her unreliable father-in-law and was furious.
Having a promising son in the family makes everyone proud. However, his father-in-law wanted to pass on his eldest uncle's grandson to Lu Mingfeng, who had never married.
Lu Mingfeng disagreed, so his father-in-law wanted to cut off relations with his second brother. Instigated by his eldest uncle, he took him to court, saying that he did not support the elderly.
If the couple had not testified in court, Lu Mingfeng's reputation would have been ruined.
Seeing that this trick did not work, his uncle changed his mind and turned the spearhead against his own family.
In the name of doing good for her family, she urged her husband Lu Mingqi to find Lu Mingfeng and let Lu Mingfeng make a will to pass all the inheritance to his children in the future.
Her husband is soft-hearted and has a personality similar to his father-in-law. He forgets his last name after being criticized.
Zhou Min didn't want her son to become a vampire like her uncle's family, so she usually didn't let him have much contact with her father-in-law and uncle's family.
She also warned her son not to peek at other people's things.
Because of this, Lu Mingfeng treated his family very well and paid for his children's tuition so that he could study hard.
However, his two sons were not good at studying. They didn't get into high school and went home to farm.
...
Recently, Lu Yongfu heard from somewhere that Lu Mingfeng was going to get married.
And the woman he was going to marry was a divorced and dying woman.
When Lu Yongfu got the news, he went to find his son immediately.
In the end, the wedding was not completed.
Because the woman Lu Mingfeng was going to marry passed away.
Lu Mingfeng wanted to bring his wife back to his hometown for burial, but Lu Yongfu and Lu Yongsheng tried their best to stop him and not let him enter the ancestral tomb.
Lu Mingfeng was willing to pay the money, and Lu Yongsheng was moved, but he asked Lu Mingfeng to succeed his grandson.
Lu Mingfeng left Yaoshui Village in a rage with his ashes.
Zhou Min chased after him with his son and said to Lu Mingfeng: "You leave the ashes behind, and I will let the children secretly bury them in the ancestral tomb at night."
Lu Mingfeng said: "My wife should be buried in the ancestral tomb openly. I despise such sneaky behavior!"
...
Only his brother's family attended the funeral that Lu Mingfeng held for his wife.
After the funeral, Lu Mingfeng kept his nephew Lu Changguo and took out a will.
"When I die in the future, you put my ashes together with your second aunt's, and I will leave you part of my property."
Lu Changguo shook his head: "Second uncle, I will do what you say, but I don't want your property."
"Why not? Dad and my uncle's family have been looking forward to my death so that they can inherit my inheritance. Now it's delivered to your doorstep and you don't want it?"
Lu Changguo said, "My mother said that what others give will eventually run out. Only by making money with your own ability can you be considered a real talent.
Besides, my second uncle has too much property. Even if I get it, I may not be able to keep it. I don't know who will benefit from it in the future."
Lu Mingfeng patted Lu Changguo's shoulder with relief and said, "My eldest sister-in-law has taught you very well. I don't have any children. As long as you come to pay homage to your second aunt every Qingming Festival, I will provide funds to help you start a business." Lu Changguo
nodded happily, "Even if my second uncle doesn't give me funds to start a business, as my second aunt is an elder, it is my responsibility to pay homage to her."
...
Next, Lu Mingfeng's actions were puzzling.
He put part of his wife's ashes in a necklace, wore it with him, traveled all over famous mountains and rivers, and visited Taoist temples everywhere.
After returning, he began to do charity.
He built roads, paved bridges, donated money, built schools, and supported scientific research projects.
When Lu Mingfeng was old, he only kept a commercial street left to him by his wife, and the rest of the properties were sold and donated.
No one knew why he did this.
When Lu Mingfeng was dying, he called Lu Changguo to his side and gave him the commercial street, hoping that he would run it well because it was left to him by his wife. After
Lu Mingfeng passed away, Lu Changguo buried his second uncle and second aunt together according to his will.
When the relatives left the cemetery, a Taoist priest came to the tomb of Lu Mingfeng and his wife.
"Fool, I just tricked you into drinking wine, and you took it seriously.
You are also a fool. Others are praying for their own success in the next life, but you only think about her.
Well, considering your good deeds and piety, I will fulfill your wish."
The Taoist priest raised his hands and made a seal. In an instant, dark clouds covered the cemetery, and a black whirlwind swirled around the tombstone in front of him. A necklace slowly rose from the tomb.
Then it disappeared in the whirlwind.
