Zhang Xingrong, who was sitting opposite, was deeply moved. From childhood to adulthood, Mr. Lu had always trusted her. Whenever there was something, he would ask for clarification before making any judgment.
"Grandpa, thank you." Her voice was choked with sobs. Forget it, as long as the old man believed her, it was enough. As for the others, why bother saying so much? Anyway, she didn't want to marry Lu Ran now.
Li Ruyu quickly seized the opportunity and said, "Look, she's speechless! Old man, this is what we personally saw and heard when we went to Zhangjia Village! Besides, didn't this girl get into a fight outside the Lu family before, and was even complained to by the neighbors?"
Zhang Hewu couldn't bear to listen any longer and immediately said, "My sister wouldn't fight for no reason..."
"Let me tell you." Lu Ran glanced at Zhang Xingrong and said calmly, "Grandpa, the fights they're talking about really happened."
"Look, look!" Li Ruyu said hurriedly, "What we said is true!"
Zhang Hewu was immediately very dissatisfied and glared at Lu Ran.
The old man couldn't help but frown, but soon, Lu Ran said again -
"But she had a reason for fighting. Rongya fought because those people in Zhangjia Village insulted her mother, so she started fighting. Their commune issued a notice on this matter. Rongya didn't fight for no reason."
Li Ruyu: “…”
She looked at the person in front of her who was speaking for Zhang Xingrong and was a little dumbfounded.
Didn’t this guy hate Zhang Xingrong very much before? Why is he protecting her now?
The old lady also frowned, not understanding what was going on. "Even if there's a story about the fight, she's lazy and does nothing, so there's nothing wrong with that, right? Don't say it's fake, we saw it with our own eyes when we went to the village! Ranran, I know you feel sorry for this girl, but you don't have to put yourself in such a difficult position."
Doesn't she know her grandson? He looks cold on the outside, but his heart is actually warm. He probably feels sorry for this girl and sympathizes with her!
"You say!" The old lady wanted to seize the initiative and turned to glare at Zhang Xingrong. "Do you dare to say that you weren't lazy and idle in the past? Didn't you do nothing?"
"Yes!" Zhang Xingrong nodded.
“…”
Zhang Xingrong's straightforwardness actually choked the old lady.
"Rong Ya..." Zhang Hewu couldn't bear to see his sister suffer, so he couldn't help but join in.
"Brother, I'm fine. There's nothing to deny about what I've done."
Anyway, she didn't want to please the Lu family right now. Zhang Hewu saw his sister shaking her head and thought about it. Anyway, there was no need to please the Lu family right now. What did it matter whether the Lu family believed him or not? He was worried that his sister would be wronged, but if she didn't feel wronged, what could he say?
So, he just shut up.
Lu Ran looked at the girl opposite him and saw that she was very calm. He knew what she was planning and said, "Lazy and idle are all misleading words that Zhang's Second Aunt Chen Xuezhi deliberately spread. Rong Ya was kicked out of the Zhang family and is now in Lugou Village. She is very hardworking in Lugou Village and everyone in the village likes her very much."
She probably didn't want to marry him anymore, so she didn't care what the Lu family thought of her.
But he didn't want to see her being wronged. It wasn't the first time he had spoken up.
"What? Kicked out of the Zhang family?" Li Ruyu exclaimed, "Oh my, maybe she did something immoral again and got kicked out? Even her own grandparents dislike her. There's no way such a person can marry into the Lu family!"
After hearing this, the old lady also thought that this was the case and hated Zhang Xingrong even more.
