In the morning, Su Wantang got up early to practice boxing, but didn't see Lu Huai'an. She was puzzled for a moment, but then didn't think much of it and continued to focus on her boxing.
Soon after, Yu Tingting arrived.
As soon as he entered the courtyard, his eyes darted around, clearly looking for Lu Huai'an.
Out of the corner of her eye, Su Wantang saw Lu Zhentian rush forward and block Yu Tingting, who was about to walk towards the house.
"Tingting, give me the child, you can go to work."
Grandpa is acting a bit strange.
Noticing Su Wantang's gaze, Yu Tingting felt provoked and glared back angrily.
Su Wantang: "..."
She didn't do anything wrong!
The next second, a familiar male voice rang in my ears.
"Wantang, don't worry, I will keep my distance from women with ill intentions."
Yu Tingting's eyes were practically blazing with fury, and Su Wantang had no doubt that Yu Tingting wanted to kill her at that moment.
But Lu Huai'an seemed oblivious and continued, "I don't have the habit of casually becoming someone else's 'cheap dad'."
Lu Huai'an silently added in his heart: Except for those you gave birth to.
Yu Tingting stormed off, her high heels clicking on the ground.
Su Wantang saw it and felt extremely pleased.
After all, these words coming from her mouth were far less damaging and humiliating than those from Lu Huai'an.
"Wantang—"
"You're so noisy."
It wasn't that she was still angry with Lu Huai'an; she just wanted to deliberately ignore him for a few days so he would learn a lesson.
Lu Huai'an shut his mouth and quietly watched Su Wantang practice boxing.
With piercing gazes from behind, Su Wantang felt uncomfortable and went inside after a short while.
After breakfast, Su Wantang busied herself in the yard.
Wen Wanqing was kind to Su Wantang, and Su Wantang remembered it in her heart.
I saw she was interested in skin whitening last time, so I bought some medicinal herbs. I processed them yesterday and started working on them today.
Seeing how busy she was, Lu Huai'an didn't disturb her. He just sat next to her, like a statue waiting for his wife.
While watching Jiang Lele practice her horse stance, Lu Zhentian would occasionally glance over here and couldn't help but purse his lips.
Her eyes were filled with disdain for Lu Huai'an.
He's still as useless as ever.
"Dad," Zhang Juan called out as she entered the yard.
What are you doing here?
"I just heard that Huai'an injured his leg, so I came to check on him."
Lu Zhentian was old, but he knew everything perfectly well.
When Wan Tang first came, she refused to visit him; upon learning that Wan Qing had returned and was going to the military base to force the two to divorce, she immediately arranged a marriage for her second son.
Lu Zhentian didn't even bother to explain what kind of scheme they were plotting.
And this time, such a big thing happened in Huai'an. Lu Yuanyang kept it from him, but not from anyone else. Lu Zhentian didn't believe that Lu Yuanzhou hadn't heard anything about it.
He didn't wait until the person was discharged from the hospital to come; his visit was just a pretense, and in his opinion, his real purpose was to see them make a fool of themselves.
As an elder, he also hoped for family harmony. Lu Zhentian snorted twice and remained silent.
Zhang Juan looked somewhat uneasy after being given the cold shoulder.
Lu Huai'an: "Thank you for your concern, Aunt. I'm fine now."
Lu Huai'an was outstanding from a young age, overshadowing the eldest son, Huai Dong. The old man also doted on him and personally taught him.
Huai Dong didn't receive this kind of treatment when he was a child, even though he was the eldest grandson of the first branch of the family!
If it weren't for her womb being so fertile, giving birth to three sons, each one quite good, the old man would have long since forgotten about their eldest son's family.
“Huai’an, your aunt has heard about your leg. It’s just that you’re lame. You’re all better now, aren’t you? Don’t think too much about it.”
Why does that sound so unpleasant?
Su Wantang: "Thank you for your concern, Aunt. Huai'an's leg is not lame and will get better."
Lu Huai'an's eyes brightened slightly.
Who are you trying to fool?
Even Old Gu said it wouldn't get better, but he's stubborn as a mule.
Zhang Juan deliberately asked, "You are..."
"Aunt, this is Wantang, my wife."
"Oh, so you're that capitalist's daughter."
In short, both Lu Zhentian and Lu Huai'an changed color.
"Aunt, please show some respect to Wan Tang."
Lu Huai'an's tone was relatively polite, but Lu Zhentian didn't care about such formalities.
"Finished talking? If you're done, go home and stay there. I can't stand looking at you."
Zhang Juan's face turned red and then blue as she choked on the choking fumes.
She was simply furious with her second son's wife today, and having heard that Wen Wanqing was home, she wanted to deliberately see her sister-in-law make a fool of herself.
From the moment she entered the house, Wen Wanqing's appearance, job, and even the son she gave birth to all surpassed her in every way.
She married a bad daughter-in-law, but no matter how bad her daughter-in-law was, she wouldn't bring bad luck to her husband.
Wen Wanqing, that capitalist's daughter-in-law, is a jinx. In such a short time, she's already crippled Lu Huai'an's leg.
Before I even met him, the old man started to dislike me.
But she didn't dare say anything, much less stay any longer.
Otherwise, the old man would definitely have called Yuanzhou!
Zhang Juan, who had come secretly without Lu Yuanzhou's knowledge, felt extremely guilty.
"This is some tonic. Your uncle went to great lengths to get it. Eat more to nourish your body."
After saying this, Zhang Juan left in a hurry.
...
Because of Lu Huai'an's two sentences that morning, Yu Tingting was distracted all day and made several mistakes, which led to her being criticized by her supervisor.
As soon as she got off work, she rushed to the Lu family's house.
She still hadn't seen Lu Huai'an, and feeling anxious, she took Lele home without stopping.
"Mom, what should we do? Huai'an still has that capitalist vixen in her heart!"
Yu Manfan saw this more clearly than Yu Tingting from the very beginning.
"What's the panic?"
"So what if she's there? Lu Huai'an is lame, he certainly won't be a burden to that slut. After the divorce, you can marry him. Put some effort into it. There's no old affection that can't be forgotten."
"Men, they all crave novelty."
Yu Tingting breathed a sigh of relief.
But then, Jiang Lele suddenly said something.
"Not lame."
The two locked onto each other instantly.
After asking them a few questions, both of them felt a sudden unease.
Yu Tingting was so anxious that she lost her composure and started talking nonsense.
"Mom, what should I do? My brother Huai'an's leg is healed, so I won't be able to marry him."
"I don't want to! I don't want to!"
"Mom, why don't you hire someone to break Huai'an's leg again?"
Yu Manfan rolled her eyes: "Do you think the Lu family are all idiots? Besides, if even Old Master Gu can't solve this problem, this doctor must be a foreign doctor that Wen Wanqing got through connections. How could your mother have that kind of ability?"
"I don't care! I don't care!"
"Mom, you have to think of something! Otherwise, you won't be able to marry Uncle Lu!"
Yu Manfan: "..."
She's just as stupid as her deceased father; it's infuriating!
Even if it wasn't for Yu Tingting's sake, Yu Manfan had to think about herself too.
"I've got it."
"mom."
Yu Tingting immediately stopped crying, her eyes shining brighter than the light bulbs in the room.
"Cooking raw rice into cooked rice."
