Chapter 43: Why am I afraid of him?
Lu Debang is the village chief after all. Even if you are a military wife, you can't use a knife in front of so many people. What's more, because you are a military wife, you have to be more patient and tolerant than others. No matter what, you must convince others with reason. If you use a knife, you will not be the only one criticized.
"Zhenping's wife, put down the knife quickly and talk about everything in a nice way. Even if Jiahe's wife is wrong, we can't use a knife."
Wu Xianglan hid backwards. Only then did she feel scared. There was an injury on her arm, but if Xie Jing was pregnant, what if something happened? Not to mention the parents-in-law, even Lu Jiasheng, the bastard, would not let it go.
She looked around, and almost everyone in the Lu family had come, but she didn't see her man Lu Jiahe, and she couldn't help but feel anxious.
"Village chief, everyone is a witness today. Mingyang is Lu Zhenping's eldest son. When Lu Zhenping is not here, he can make the decision. We mother and son want to separate, and this matter can't be put on the back burner. One thing Wu Xianglan said is right. If we don't separate now, they can come to eat my food and eat as much as they want. But my child and I haven't been back to eat for a long time. Everyone knows it clearly. If we don't separate today, the Lu family will force us mother and son to die. I will take my child and jump into the river tomorrow."
Lu Jiaxuan frowned, looking at Shen Meng's agitated look and feeling a little irritated.
"Sister-in-law, don't be anxious. Didn't we agree to wait until Dad comes back? You have to write a letter to Big Brother. Big Brother is the eldest son of the Lu family and is the most filial to his parents. If he knew that you had separated from the family, he would be angry with you when he comes back from his family leave."
"If you are angry, then be angry. Why should I be afraid of him? Everyone knows that Mingyang, Mingliang and Mingfang are not Lu Zhenping's biological children. I just heard someone say that they are unlucky with their parents. Haha, their fathers are both good men with strong bones and are heroes who sacrificed their lives to defend their country. Why can you stand here and watch the jokes about my family? It is because someone built a wall with flesh and blood to protect your safety. The wall built with flesh and blood also contains the fathers of Mingyang's children. They are the descendants of heroes, Wu Xianglan, and the person who just gossiped. You are insulting them. They are the descendants of heroes. How dare you say those things? Over the years, because of the three of them, the soldiers in the army have sent so many good things to the Chao family. Wu Xianglan said that the Lu family raised them, but didn’t they also bring benefits to the Lu family? Today I say this. From now on, Mingyang, Mingliang and Mingfang are my children, Shen Meng. If anyone dares to gossip about them again, I will fight him to the death. "
Shen Meng finished his words passionately, and with a force in his hand, he chopped the locust tree at the door with a knife. The deep mark seemed to have chopped into everyone's heart.
The three brothers and sisters who were driven out of the gate by Liu Sanjin listened to Shen Meng's words, tears streaming down their faces, especially Mingfang, who was sobbing.
The faces of the people at the door changed several times, and no one dared to speak. Some felt guilty, some regretful, some sighed, and some were unwilling to accept it.
But no matter what, no one dared to refute Shen Meng, even Zhou Jiaojiao and Lu Jiaxuan, who wanted to persuade the quarrel, did not say anything.
Lu Debang saw that Shen Meng was serious, so he waved his hands and said, "Wu Xianglan, you should quickly apologize to your sister-in-law and your nephews and nieces. You are so old, but you still have no control over your words. You can still bring up things that happened so many years ago. I forgot what Zhenping told you at the beginning. If he knew that I was not here, you would torture his children like this. Just wait!"
Shen Meng knew that what happened tonight had come to an end. Lu Debang obviously wanted to smooth things over. After all, the division of the family was their own business, and he could not make the decision. Last time, he and Zhang Hongfa decided to divide the food of the Lu family, which made Lu Jiahe very dissatisfied. If he decided to divide the family this time,
I am afraid that when old man Lu who was working outside came back, he would have to talk to them.
Wu Xianglan still wanted to fight back. She looked everywhere but didn't see her man. Feeling aggrieved, she looked at Zhou Jiaojiao and suddenly burst into tears.
"Jiaojiao, you have to stand by second sister-in-law. Second sister-in-law doesn't mean any bad things. Just say it now. How can an elder apologize to a younger person? Isn't this embarrassing for me? Besides, Yongqiang and Yongli were also beaten. Can't we just call it even? Wuwuwu..." "
Second sister-in-law, oh, eldest sister-in-law, look, we are all family. Can't we just talk it out? Second sister-in-law definitely didn't mean it. So, let third sister-in-law give birth in two months, and let second sister-in-law take care of her and serve her, okay?"
Shen Meng said a lot of things and took a break. She silently tried to pull the kitchen knife off the locust tree. In the dark, she tried with her hands, feet and face, but couldn't pull the knife off.
"Haha, that's none of your business. Go find a quiet place to talk to. I still say the same thing. Divide the family and apologize to my children. Otherwise, this matter is not over. I will take the children to the army tomorrow to find your eldest brother. I heard that with his rank he can be given a courtyard and follow the army. By then, our family will not come back. Don't come to him for help in the future if you have any problems."
Lu Jiaxuan's eyebrows jumped when he heard this. He was worried that his eldest brother would not reply to his letter or help him to say hello to the commune. If Shen Meng really took the children to the army, who knows what bad things he would say. If he really never came back, his eldest brother would be estranged from the Lu family.
"Don't be angry, sister-in-law. I'll write to my eldest brother about the division of the family property later, okay? Second sister-in-law, we are all family. If you did something wrong, it's nothing to apologize to Mingyang's children. Besides, sister-in-law is right about one thing. They are all children of heroes. You should apologize to the children of heroes. What's there to be embarrassed about
?" "So he bit me and you just let it go? My arm is covered in blood."
"I'll ask Jiaojiao to find Dr. Lu to take a good look at you later. It's okay, sister-in-law, just apologize to the kids. Everyone is watching!"
Shen Meng watched Lu Jiaxuan deal with it. She didn't say a word. This man is also a profit-oriented person. He speaks beautifully and ridicules her for making trouble openly and secretly. But Shen Meng observed that there are not many smart people. If you don't explain it clearly, few people will know what he means by ridicule.
Wu Xianglan looked at Mingyang with a bitter face and apologized to Mingyang and Mingfang. After that, she took Yongqiang and Yongli and ran away. Lu Debang comforted them with a few words and quickly dispersed the people who were watching the excitement.
Shen Meng looked at Zhou Jiaojiao and Lu Jiaxuan, snorted coldly and went home. Lu Mingyang, Lu Mingliang and Lu Mingfang followed her footsteps.
Lu Mingliang licked the snot that was about to fall to his lips, sniffed and said, "Mom, we haven't taken the kitchen knife home yet!"
"Mom just used too much force and cut too deep, and I can't pull it out."
The three children: "..."
