Chapter 27 Preferring Sons to Daughters



"Hahaha! This old woman Lu always manages to cause a huge joke every time she comes to Lu Sen's house to make trouble! This time she actually said it's haunted? That's hilarious!"

"Exactly, exactly. He's probably done too many bad things; he gets scared even when he sees the little girl Lu Sen adopted. Hahaha—"

"That child was really ugly. It was so ugly that it made me feel a little creeped out and disgusted."

Several middle-aged women were standing by the door. Through the crack in the door, they could see Old Lady Lu and Li Xiufang rolling around on the ground, laughing so hard they were doubled over.

They even made way for the people behind them to take turns watching.

Lu Sen and Yun Ping covered their mouths and chuckled, pretending not to have seen the old lady's creepy behavior.

The reason she was so afraid when she saw An Wan was probably because she remembered that she had caused the deaths of the third son's two daughters.

That's what you call deserved it!

Because of his preference for sons over daughters, he caused the deaths of two people. He was ruthless and didn't even care about retribution.

The entire Lu family home was filled with laughter, along with Old Mrs. Lu's wailing and howling.

"Hahaha! They got what they deserved! The bad guys got their comeuppance! Hahaha—"

Lu Zhili clapped his hands and jumped around, laughing so hard he was "completely inhuman."

"Fifth Brother, you're awesome!" An Wan turned around and secretly gave him a thumbs up, but could only praise him in a low voice.

She glanced furtively at Lu Sen and Yun Ping, feeling guilty, afraid they would be upset if they heard. After all, Old Mrs. Lu was his mother, and they had to respect her.

Lu Yanshu was stunned when he saw An Wan, who was so playful and cute.

What just happened? It wasn't a coincidence.

Or was it premeditated?

Is she really not stupid?

But is she really that smart?

Is she really only four or five years old?

Lu Yanshu still didn't believe that she could frighten Old Madam Lu like this with just a few words; it must have been a coincidence.

Lu Jingxing stood straight, quietly watching An Wan's performance.

I didn't expect her to have some skills.

Not only did they not make things worse, they actually helped them out.

"Wanwan, you're amazing!" Lu Chunhe gave her a thumbs up and spoke softly.

She dared not let Lu Sen hear it, after all, Old Lady Lu was his biological mother.

Besides, I'm not a stupid fifth brother who can say whatever he wants without getting scolded or held accountable.

"Ahhhh—"

I heard Old Lady Lu shout that there was a ghost, her voice so shrill and eerie.

"There's a ghost!"

Lu Xin, who has been terrified of ghosts since childhood, was especially frightened by An Wan's appearance, his face turned pale and his whole body trembled.

He ran around with his head in his hands, making a complete fool of himself.

He's almost a grandfather, yet he's still not mature and steady.

Lu Sen shook his head helplessly, grabbed Lu Xin, opened the door, and threw him out like a puppy.

He then squatted down, pulled Li Xiufang up, and dragged her to the front door.

The villagers who had been watching the commotion quickly made way for Lu Xin and Li Xiufang.

Everyone was making fun of this eccentric couple, treating them like monkeys in a circus.

Lu Sen picked up his teacup, took a big gulp of tea, and sprayed it onto Old Lady Lu's face, wetting her face and hair.

There were still a few tea leaves on her face, one of which was stuck in her nostril.

An Wan, who was hiding in Yun Ping's arms, almost burst out laughing.

She covered her mouth with both hands; if she actually laughed, it would be her fault and would also implicate Lu Sen.

“Mom, please come home! Don’t come to my house unless it’s absolutely necessary. I will send your retirement money to you on time every month, so don’t worry. If you come to cause trouble again, I will follow my older brother’s example and stop giving you your retirement money.”

Lu Sen helped the distraught old lady Lu to her feet and slowly walked her to the door, where he helped her sit on a stone stool to the side of the gate.

He issued an order to leave, an order to leave for life.

If Old Lady Lu dares to bring Lu Xin and Li Xiufang to cause trouble again, he will no longer give them face.

We've already fallen out today, but we just haven't said anything harsh yet.

Let's give everyone some dignity!

Besides, if they continue to cause trouble for their home, it might fall into ruin.

It was already on the verge of collapse and could not withstand any more turmoil.

An Wan felt much relieved after watching Lu Sen close the door. As long as he wasn't blindly obedient to his parents, she could still stay in this house.

After all, if he were truly blindly filial, he would definitely make Yunping compromise and be bullied by Old Lady Lu for the rest of her life.

But she can't stand Yunping being bullied, so there's a possibility that she'll have a conflict with him.

If things come to this, we won't be able to stay or leave, so let's not make everyone suffer.

Fortunately, he didn't act blindly towards his parents today, otherwise she would have made plans to leave much earlier.

The door shut out the outside chatter, and the twenty or thirty villagers who saw An Wan all showed expressions of horror.

And the way they secretly talked about her, their mouths full of disgust and loathing.

This made Lu Sen feel very uncomfortable.

Now that she is his daughter, he must protect her.

But all he could do was close the door; he couldn't very well go and beat up those gossipy people!

What can someone else do if they have a mouth?
