Chapter 138 I'm too ashamed to say it
"Grandma... I'm hungry. Aren't you the one who loves Dapeng the most? Grandma, I'm so hungry, please get me some food..."
Chen Cuihua's legs were being held by her grandson.
She felt an instinctive pang of heartache for the child.
However, she also knew that if these children were not corrected, they would become just like Lu Changfa and Lu Changshun.
Teaching children is no longer her responsibility.
She lived the rest of her life only for herself and her daughter.
Chen Cuihua pried her grandson's hands off: "If you're hungry, go find something to eat."
It's not a year of famine, and the grass is lush and green; wild vegetables are everywhere. Si Xi only has one grandmother and she's grown up like this. You all have parents; if you starve, it's because you're lazy!"
Chen Cuihua entered the thatched hut.
"Chen Cuihua!"
Peng shouted angrily, "If you don't care, I'll leave! Let your son and your two poor grandchildren starve to death!"
Seeing that Chen Cuihua was truly heartless and indifferent, Sun Shi lost her spirit.
"Let's go, it's no use."
“At least you have your elder brother, what am I going to do…” Madam Peng gritted her teeth.
"Then go out and work, just like Chen Cuihua back then, raising three children on her own while also taking care of a useless husband!"
Sun said sarcastically, then turned and left with her child.
In the Lu family's dirty and messy courtyard.
Lu Xingde was so hungry that he felt dizzy and had to struggle to walk out, leaning on a wooden stick.
"Where are they? Where have they all gone! A bunch of lazybones, where's the food?"
“Is there anyone lazier than your father? If you want to eat, go earn it yourself!” Madam Sun walked in and said sarcastically.
"What did you say?" Lu Xingde stared.
This is outrageous!
"I told you you're as lazy as a maggot. You're clearly capable of moving, but you've been faking illness and not doing any work all these years!"
You're the one who's a glutton, a lazybones, and an old codger!
"Go to hell!"
...
Feng Xiaowan and Lu Qingqing eagerly awaited Lu Yun's return.
But when he returned, he had a sullen face.
They unloaded the carriage, and there was no one to take the precious horse to the river to brush its fur.
He went inside without saying a word.
"Brother?" Lu Qingqing knocked on the door.
"Little sister, I'm a little tired and want to rest for a bit."
Who would believe that!
He used to be able to run around all day without ever getting tired.
Lu Qingqing pushed the door open directly.
Caught off guard, Lu Yun's red eyes immediately became a stark reminder of his condition.
"Are you crying? Who bullied you? I'll get revenge for you."
"No, I got sand in my eyes!"
Are you Nezha?
"What nonsense are you spouting? I need to rest. Get out."
"Okay, tell me, which girl are you dating? And you even sent her a hair accessory."
Lu Yun's eyes widened, and his face quickly turned bright red.
However, instead of being ashamed, his expression was quite complex, a mixture of anger and humiliation.
"Who told you that? Nobody did!"
"What's wrong? Did you have a fight with someone?"
"No, no, I'm not dating her, and I won't be dating her!"
Understood.
Love is like a gust of wind.
They come without a trace and go without a trace.
It's over before it even truly began?
"Sigh." Lu Qingqing sighed.
She had no experience with matters of the heart and wanted to offer comfort, but she didn't know what had happened between them.
"Why don't you look at other people? Some people say that the pain of heartbreak is not in the heartbreak itself, but in the lack of opportunities to recover."
"Look around you, there are plenty of good girls! Like... Lin Ye?"
"I'll never trust women again! They're all liars!" Lu Yun shouted angrily.
How is this considered misogyny?
That's a complete sweeping generalization!
"Who is it?" Lu Qingqing asked curiously.
Lu Yun refused to say anything, only stating that he would have no further connection with him in the future.
Lu Qingqing didn't get the answer.
It wasn't until Lu Feng returned that he said Lu Yun had hit Feng Xiaoyong that day.
"What happened? Did Second Brother and Xiao Yong fight? Did Xiao Yong not work hard enough?" Feng Xiaowan asked in a series of questions.
"No wonder my second brother looked unwell when he came back. I'll go back and talk to Xiao Yong tomorrow."
"No, don't make wild guesses."
Lu Feng didn't know what had happened either. He usually carved small wooden items in the shop, and Xiao Yong would greet the guests.
Xiao Yong went out for a while and came back with injuries on his face.
He said Lu Yun hit him, and he was so angry that he didn't even look at the shop anymore and went straight home.
Lu Qingqing felt that this matter was not simple.
Then he went to ask Lu Yun what had happened.
"Don't ask, I... I'm too ashamed to say!"
"Even if you're ashamed to say it, you have to say it!" Lu Qingqing said sternly.
I have to force him to tell me today, so she knows what it is.
It's best if it's not a situation where two men are vying for one woman.
Lu Qingqing was angry, but Lu Yun was still very afraid.
He could only blush and look incredibly embarrassed as he said, "A few days ago, I was delivering goods to town when I accidentally bumped into a girl..."
Lu Yun bumped into a girl, injuring her leg, and took her to the clinic.
That's how the two met.
The girl's name was Tian Miaomiao, and her family owned a steamed bun shop.
She is innocent and lively, and especially likable.
Over time, Lu Yun began to experience romantic feelings.
Lu Yun assumed the girl liked him too, given her behavior...
Lu Yun couldn't bring himself to say anything harsh to a girl, but Lu Qingqing understood immediately.
Lu Yun isn't stupid; how could he possibly misunderstand?
It must be that the girl's words and actions were suggestive.
“I went to the town first after I came back from the city today, wanting to give her a surprise... but who knew, I saw her and Feng Xiaoyong struggling together.”
Lu Yun thought Feng Xiaoyong was being indecent, so he rushed over and punched Feng Xiaoyong.
But it wasn't like that at all.
The two of them have known each other for a long time, and they've even held hands.
Feng Xiaoyong said he was just waiting to propose marriage.
It turns out Lu Yun was the clown.
At that moment, with the magnolia hairpin he had bought for Tian Miaomiao in the city tucked in his arms, he wished he could disappear into a crack in the ground.
"They've held hands, so who said that?" Lu Qingqing asked.
"That's what Feng Xiaoyong said."
Did Tian Miaomiao acknowledge what Feng Xiaoyong said?
Lu Yun looked embarrassed again, but after being glared at by Lu Qingqing, he finally spoke.
"She cried and said... said she hadn't understood her own feelings before... said that she actually liked me."
Lu Yun almost mumbled the last few words.
"So Feng Xiaoyong was very angry."
Lu Qingqing sneered inwardly.
It's best that Tian Miaomiao isn't fishing!
Why does the tea flavor taste so strong?
"And you, buddy? Were you angry or happy when she said that?"
"What's there to be happy about! She was clearly holding hands with Feng Xiaoyong, and then she went out with me. Besides, I could tell that Feng Xiaoyong was really upset!"
Does she treat relationships so casually? She can just say she doesn't like someone anymore!
Lu Qingqing smiled and said, "Thankfully, the young man isn't a fool."
"Hey bro, wanna know what Tian Miaomiao is like behind closed doors?"
"What's the meaning?"
"Whether she's innocent and adorable, or scheming, we'll find out by trying."
"Invite Feng Xiaoyong along too!"
