Lu family.
After Lu Zhengqing and Zhang Yue visited Meng Zhen's big house, they felt that the room they had decorated for their daughter seemed a bit stingy.
The couple used to decorate their home in a girly style.
Now that the layout and vision have expanded, I want to decorate it in a more grand way.
Hearing that a young couple in the staff housing complex had just renovated their house in a European style, Zhang Yue decided to go over and observe and learn from them.
The young couple's house was in the family housing area where Zhou Ping lived.
Zhang Yue made an appointment with someone to go there, but unexpectedly ran into Lu Qian coming out of Zhou Ping's house on the way.
"Mom? Oh no, Aunt Zhang."
"Why are you here?"
When Lu Qian saw Zhang Yue, she did not avoid him intentionally, but instead stepped forward to greet him generously.
But the change of name sounds a bit weird.
Zhang Yue didn't intend to argue with her. It was normal for his adopted daughter to feel resentful towards them.
She nodded at Lucy and asked in surprise, "Why are you here?"
Lu Qian smiled and said, "Aunt Zhang, that's very interesting. Why can't I be here?"
"Why, she's not your daughter anymore, so she doesn't even have the qualifications to be here?"
There was a hint of sarcasm in his words, which made Zhang Yue frown.
But I still explained in a good-tempered manner: "You misunderstood, that's not what I meant."
"You can be anywhere, I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."
She was thinking about the appointment and walked quickly.
When passing by Lu Qian, Lu Qian sneered:
"Has Aunt Zhang ever learned Sichuan Opera face-changing? When she treated me like her own daughter, she always smiled and greeted me, wanting to bring the best things in the world to me.
After you found your biological daughter, your expression changed immediately. You didn't even bother to look at me, and you thought it was too much to say two words to me."
"Oh, you are really heartless and ungrateful."
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Ping and several family members of his colleagues were walking towards this side carrying vegetables.
Seeing Zhang Yue standing at the door of her house, she thought that he was here to chase Lu Qian away.
She rushed forward with the vegetables in her hand, blocking Lu Qian like a hen protecting her calves, and yelled to her bestie:
"Ayue, don't make things difficult for Xixi. I was the one who let her live in our house."
"If your family doesn't recognize her, I will!"
"You wouldn't come to my house and chase anyone away, would you?"
Hearing Zhou Ping's words, the family members nearby immediately came over with gossipy looks on their faces.
His eyes moved between the two of them.
Aren’t Zhang Yue and Zhou Ping best friends? Why are they fighting over the child now?
And isn’t Lu Qian Zhang Yue’s daughter? Is there anyone who doesn’t acknowledge his own daughter?
When everyone was confused,
Lu Qian hid behind Zhou Ping, lowered her head and pulled the corner of Zhou Ping's clothes aggrievedly: "Forget it, Aunt Zhou."
"It's all my fault. I shouldn't be here..."
"I shouldn't have disturbed Aunt Zhang's reunion with her biological daughter. My existence is a mistake..."
That pitiful tone was completely different from the sarcastic tone he used to speak to Zhang Yue before.
Zhang Yue's eyes widened in disbelief, looking at her former adopted daughter as if she were watching a peep show.
Why didn’t I realize that this child was such a person before?
He has two faces in front of people and behind their backs!
He sneered at her and pretended to be pitiful in front of others to gain sympathy.
Zhang Yue felt a little disappointed. She didn't like to talk about her family affairs in front of outsiders.
But with so many family members present today, if the matter is not clarified, what if these rumors affect the reputation of his own daughter?
We all live in a nearby residential compound, so we'll see each other soon. Zhang Yue simply made it clear:
"Lu Qian, I don't care where you go. I just ran into you here today and asked you one more question."
"I don't know if your existence is a mistake, but your family secretly switched my biological daughter with you, separating us for twenty years! And after the switch, your family abused her, while we treated you like a treasure for twenty years!"
"Now that the truth is out, we naturally want to claim our daughter back. How can we let you continue to occupy her place? If you want to hate or resent her, go find your own biological parents. They are responsible for this sin. What does it have to do with me?"
"To put it bluntly, our family is the victim."
After Zhang Yue's explanation, everyone understood the relationship.
Suddenly, the look he gave Lu Qian became a little subtle.
It turns out that it wasn't just a case of wrong babies being taken away, but Lu Qian's family deliberately swapped the two children.
This is simply lacking in virtue!
Lu Qian felt even more embarrassed when she received everyone's contemptuous looks.
Biting her lips, her fingers tightly grasped the corner of Zhou Ping's clothes.
Zhou Ping already treats Lu Qian as her own daughter-in-law. It goes without saying that the relationship between best friend and daughter-in-law is more important.
"The mistakes made by Xixi's parents were none of her business! She was just a baby at the time and couldn't influence her parents' behavior."
Her voice rose slightly, and she was eager to clear Lu Qian's name.
"Besides, even raising a dog requires attachment, let alone a person. Ah Yue, you've raised Xixi for twenty years, and now you can just turn around and kick her out without any regrets. That's way too cruel."
What he said made some sense, and several family members were shaken for a moment.
After all, the mistakes of the previous generation cannot be blamed on the next generation.
The Lu family's actions were indeed a bit too ruthless.
Oh.
Zhang Yue chuckled and looked at Lu Qian who was hiding behind Zhou Ping.
"Is that what you told your Aunt Zhou? Did our Lu family kick you out?"
"Why didn't you tell me that we also gave you an apartment in the north of the city, and that you had a savings account that would be enough for an ordinary person to live on for several years?"
