Chapter 37 Letter
"Mom, I'm going out." When Lu Xin went out, he looked at his mother cautiously.
Because of the previous injustice she suffered, Lu Yue was now particularly sensitive to Lu Xin's departure. "Why are you going out? Who are you looking for?"
"I'm going to Pingping's house to see if she has found the person who stole the vegetables." Lu Xin spoke to his mother in a weaker tone.
"Hmph, you were wrongly accused of stealing her vegetables earlier, and now you're so careless as to care about her? If you have this free time, why not come over and help your mother write a letter?"
The two families already had conflicts, and now her son fell in love with the other family's daughter. Lu Yue got angry when she saw his stupid behavior in love.
When Lu Xin heard about writing a letter, he forgot about going out and asked in a bad mood, "Mom, why do you keep sending letters over there? They haven't replied in all these years, and the stamps are expensive."
Lu Yue sat there and glanced at her son. "Why are you controlling me? I've been pissed off for so many years, and you won't let me write a letter to vent my anger?"
The scumbag left without a trace of emotion, and she had to endure all the suffering in the following years alone.
Lu Xin's grandparents died within a few years due to the severe blow they suffered.
How could she not hate this?
Since she couldn't find the scumbag himself, she wrote a letter to his home to curse him and try to ruin his reputation.
This has been the only channel for her to vent the hatred in her heart over the years.
"I just feel that you wrote so much, but they can't see it, so it's a waste of effort. Mom, why don't you tell me the name of that person and where his home is, and I'll go find him."
Lu Xin didn't mean to be so annoyed about his mother writing the letter. He also wanted to seek revenge on that man, but every time he asked specific questions, his mother refused to say anything.
After a few times, he stopped asking.
"Why are you looking for one by yourself? It would be great if you can find a job. This is your mother's business, she can handle it herself."
"mom."
He wanted to say something else, but Lu Yue was too lazy to listen to his nonsense. "Alright, if you don't help me write this letter, I'll go find the village chief. You can go see your partner and stop standing here and bothering me."
After saying that, Lu Yue kicked her son out of the house and went to the village chief's house with the letter paper.
Every year at this time, she would write a letter and ask the village chief to help mail it.
So when Lu Zhengde saw her coming, he immediately knew her purpose, "Sister-in-law, is it the same this time?"
"Yes, Village Chief, this time you can help me curse more harshly and write a few more copies. It would be best if the neighbors can see them too."
When the village chief ran inside to get a pen, she sat aside waiting, and happened to meet Liu Hehua who brought Liu Fangfang to her home to chat.
The two men were still a long way away when the sound came over.
"Girl, where did you go to college?"
"Grandma, I went to university in Province N, and I went to a normal school. I wonder what Sister Bailu studied?"
"Your sister Bailu..."
The conversation stopped because when Liu Hehua entered the room, she saw Lu Yue sitting in the yard.
The two looked at each other awkwardly, and neither of them spoke first.
As for Liu Fangfang, she hid behind Liu Hehua the first time she saw Lu Yue. The scene of the two people quarreling that day left a deep shadow on her.
Lu Yue's cursing attitude at that time was quite scary.
In the end, Lu Xing, who was walking last, greeted first, "Lu Xin's mom? Are you here to see the village chief about something?"
"Auntie, what a coincidence! I'm almost done with my work. Who is this person following behind you?" Lu Yue recognized Liu Fangfang, but after hearing what she just said, she pretended not to recognize her.
Able to change the subject, Liu Hehua immediately took the initiative to introduce, "Oh, this is Lianhua's daughter-in-law's friend, who has been staying at your Aunt Xing's house recently."
"Sister Bailu's friend? So she's also a college student? Where did she go to college?"
"this?"
"Normal University in Province N, what's wrong, Auntie?" Although Liu Fangfang had heard about the educated youth, since neither of them mentioned their names, she didn't expect Lu Yue to be the person involved.
Lu Yue asked the question in a relaxed tone, but her eyes were fixed on Liu Fangfang's face, not missing a single expression on her face. "Oh, then, have you ever heard of the name Fang Jian when you were in school?"
Everyone else held their breath, and the village chief who was writing a letter also stopped writing.
Fang Jian is the name of the educated youth who abandoned his wife and children.
Lu Yue hasn't mentioned his name for a long time, and when she curses people, she always uses that man instead.
Now when others heard her suddenly mention this name, they were too nervous to speak.
Liu Fangfang didn't notice anything unusual and thought about it carefully. "I don't think we've heard of this name before in our class. Is he from our school?"
"Yes, but it happened more than ten years ago. It shouldn't be hard to find it after so long, right?"
"It's a bit troublesome, but our school has a graduation album where all the graduation photos of each class are kept. Auntie, do you know anyone who attends our school?"
"Yes." Lu Yue sneered, "A very important person!"
"Then I can help you check when I get back to school, but I'm not sure if I can find where he is now."
"It's okay, you've already helped me a lot."
The village chief sitting next to him asked, "Are you still going to write this letter?"
"Write, of course you should. Village chief, please write it a little harsher, I want to deliver it to him personally this time." After Lu Yue finished speaking, she left in a hurry without even taking the letter. The ferocity on her face was even more intense than the last time they quarreled.
"Auntie, are you okay like this?" Liu Fangfang was a little worried. She looked like she was about to go out and chop someone down.
"It's okay, Lu Xin should stop me." Lu Xing was used to it. "Lu Yue's health is not good. Even if she really wants to do something, she will take care of her body."
Now they were more curious about Liu Fangfang, "Can you really find Fang Jian?"
"If this person and I went to the same school, I should be able to find out where he went after graduation by asking the teacher. What's wrong? Is this person important?" Liu Fangfang was a little confused as she watched the two people surrounding her.
"Should I still check?"
"Yes, of course. After all these years, we finally have some news. If you can really find out something, it will be a great help." Liu Hehua was afraid that she would give up and the only clue would be lost, so she immediately tried to persuade her.
"Really? Then I'll check it out when I get back, and tell you right away if I have any results."
Liu Fangfang, just as she said, didn't stay here for too long. She came to the school just to take a look at the situation, and after that she had to go back to school to attend classes.
Before leaving, she also left the address of the school so that they could communicate through letters.
In the next few days, Lu Xing and the others, like Lu Yue, sat at the entrance of the village when they had nothing to do, for fear of missing the letter sent by Liu Fangfang.
They waited for a long time, so long that Lu Yue thought Liu Fangfang had forgotten what she had promised her.
One day, when the village chief came into the village with a letter in his hand, Lu Yue was the first to approach him and asked, "Village chief, is this a letter from Liu Fangfang?"
"Let me see." The village chief looked at the recipient and said, "No, it's a letter from Lu Yu to his mother."
When Lu Yue heard that it was not a letter she wanted to read, she was not very interested anymore.
The other people who were chatting nearby were a little bit unbelieving when they heard this.
That bastard Lu Yu has done so many bad things by relying on Old Lady Lu's favoritism, and he has never felt guilty.
How long has it been since he was kicked out to work? He's already written back?
Could he be asking for money? I think that's more likely.
Old Mrs. Lu also thought so, so her expression was not good when she received the letter. If her stupid son complained to her about being poor, she would definitely scold him severely.
Of course, if her youngest son's life was really miserable, she would still find a way to send some money over.
She opened the envelope with trepidation, looked at the lines of words, and suddenly realized, "Village Chief, I was so excited just now that I forgot. I can't read. How about you read it to me?"
The village chief asked, "So I'll study here?"
Lu Xing and the others who were watching the fun laughed, "Judi, can we listen to what your son writes?"
"If you hear something you shouldn't hear, you won't be angry, right?"
Old Lady Lu was annoyed by the few people. "Listen, listen, listen. What else can't you listen to? Village Chief, please read quickly."
She has already given up. She has made so many embarrassing mistakes, so this one won't make any difference.
If I don't tell this group of people, who knows what outrageous rumors they will make up behind my back.
"Then I'll read it." The village chief cleared his throat.
Mom, I found a new job.
The job you introduced to me before is too hard. I have to work from day to night without even having time to rest. It's not a job for a human being.
And my boss finds fault with me every day and always causes trouble for me. It’s so annoying.
…………
In short, I can't continue working in this crappy factory.
Hearing this, Mrs. Lu's face darkened, and Lu Xing stopped her before she started to curse.
The letter hasn't been finished yet.
Because she was so angry, she didn't notice that the person pulling her was the person she hated the most.
The village chief ignored the little dispute and continued reading.
Later, an older acquaintance of mine introduced me to my current job.
This job is great. I can make a lot of money in a day just by treating customers to meals, drinks and chatting.
Mom, I have a lucrative job now, you can ask the Wang family to prepare for the wedding.
"I'm done."
Lu Zhengde closed the letter and no one dared to speak. Everyone was shocked by the contents inside.
Only one person thought otherwise.
"I knew that my Xiaoyu is a promising person. He found such a good job on his own." When Mrs. Lu heard the last sentence, she looked proud and felt that her son had finally stood up for her.
Those who usually liked to tease her were silent at this time, and no one came out to refute her.
Seeing how strangely some people were acting, Mrs. Lu felt unhappy. "What are you doing? Don't you think my son has a bright future by finding such a lucrative job?"
"What's so promising about that? Accompanying people to drink, eat, and chat, isn't that just three kinds of company? What kind of promising is that?"
Lianhua has always been good at scolding people.
But this time, Mrs. Lu wasn't angry. "I know, but how can a man like him suffer? Aren't the ones who suffer anyway? So many of my daughters are willing to spend money to treat my son to a meal. If that's not a testament to his ability, what is it?"
If other people do this, it's not proper, but if her son does this, it only shows that her son is too charming.
"Are you jealous? My son is liked by so many people. They spend money to eat with him, but your son can't even find a partner if he spends money."
The more she spoke, the more she felt it made sense. "No wonder you're so aggressive. Your son's fate is to dig in the fields for food. He'll never be as successful as my son in this life. Just accept your fate."
The others were speechless towards Old Lady Lu and didn't bother to say anything more. "Yes, your son is amazing. I knew from a young age that he was destined for this job."
Mrs. Lu didn't hear the sarcasm in the words at all. "That's right, you have good taste."
"I have to go back. My son is finally making some progress. I have to quickly settle this delayed marriage."
Seeing her happily walking back, Lu Xing was a little surprised. "She wouldn't think that the Wang family would still agree to this marriage just because her son is working as an escort, right?"
"Maybe?"
"Maybe she feels that her son has made it big, and that the Wang family's daughter is not worthy of her son."
"No way?"
Liu Hehua was still confident in her ability to judge people. "Just wait and see."
【Author has something to say】
Lu Yu: It’s great here! There’s food, drinks, and sleep. I love it!
Mrs. Lu: I am proud that my son is a triple companion!
Others: ????
