"What's wrong with me finding out? What shameful things have you done? Are you worried about me finding out now? You're really capable of doing things first and asking for permission later. You've clearly taken advantage of my connections. What's going on? Your sweetheart has already graduated from high school, and the Bai family hasn't said anything?"
Wearing a well-tailored old-fashioned suit, the old man walked in with a cane, looking energetic.
His voice was so majestic and sharp, and his face so stern that no one could ignore him.
The first time Bai Huan saw her, his legs suddenly went weak and he said in a trembling voice, "Mother-in-law, why are you here? What's the matter with you coming here today?"
It's no wonder she made a fuss. Ever since she married into the Lu family, the two elders separated their second house because of some unpleasantness they had in the past.
What wind blew today that brought this person here? Thinking about what he had done, Bai Huan's eyes flickered, and he didn't dare to look at Old Lady Lu.
Old Lady Lu had participated in the Korean War when she was young and was a formidable figure. She knew what her daughter-in-law was like.
She had always looked down on her, but her son insisted on marrying her. If it weren't for this loser, her favorite daughter-in-law wouldn't have died of depression.
She despises the third party who interferes with other people's marriages the most.
But no one knew what kind of drug her son had been drugged with, and he insisted on marrying her, and even had such a good-for-nothing loser.
Lu Jian was also very afraid of Old Lady Lu, as he knew very well that she looked down on them.
But this glaring gaze still made him feel embarrassed, as if he was inferior to others.
Lu Jian was about to speak when Bai Huan glared at him. Mrs. Lu was angry now, and this was not the time to argue.
Bai Huan quickly asked the nanny to serve tea to Mrs. Lu, and her voice was flattering: "Mother-in-law, you misunderstood me. Xiao Jian has also graduated from high school. He is the only son of our second wife. If he goes to the countryside, I don't know when he will be able to come back. Life in the countryside is bitter and cold. How can he bear it with his frail body? Even if you really don't like me, he is the blood of the Lu family after all. You can't just sit back and watch.
I was forced into this situation and had no other choice but to resort to this desperate measure!"
Oh, does this mean you blame her for not using her connections to find a job for Lu Jian?
Old Lady Lu sneered. She had never seen anyone so shameless. "Did you lose face in order to marry into the Lu family? Now you haven't found it back? What kind of a jerk is he? I don't even need to declare to you that he's a descendant of the Lu family. Stop trying to get involved with me.
I can't possibly acknowledge his existence. The second wife's only grandson is Lu Yu, and Bai Jing is the only daughter-in-law of the second wife. You are, at best, a worthless person. I warn you, if you act on your own again, don't blame me for kicking you out of this family."
Old Lady Lu knocked the ground with her cane seriously, causing the two men to shudder.
This old woman has been holding on to the family for so many years and has refused to give up power, preventing the younger generations from developing. Her network of relationships is still in her hands.
She wished that the old woman would die sooner. If she had not repeatedly stopped her, she would not have separated from Lu Aidang, and she would not have allowed Lu Aidang and Bai Jing to have a bastard.
Unfortunately, Bai Jing didn't live long, and the bastard's fate was not good either. Even if this old woman was powerful, she couldn't pave a way out for them.
Everything was in her grasp, so what if she lowered her attitude? At least she had the life she wanted.
As for the Bai family, it doesn’t matter. Just cut off ties.
She is now the daughter-in-law of the second branch of the Lu family. Who wouldn’t be envious when she goes out?
Lu Jian's face was the ugliest. He had always known that his grandmother did not recognize him, but the words she said were like a thorn in his heart, making him feel rebellious.
Okay, isn't that what he looks down on me? He has to let her see how he is inferior to that dead bastard?
The topic of Lu Yu is a taboo in the Lu family. Because Bai Jing got into trouble and Lu Yu disappeared, this almost became a thorn in the heart of old lady Lu, and no one could mention it.
Old Lady Lu looked at Lu Jian without any of the kindness she showed towards her bloodline: "What? You took advantage of the Lu family's connections, gained benefits, but don't want to admit it? This is the rule your mother taught you all these years.
Don't think I look down on you. I don't even consider your worth. If your father hadn't stopped you, you wouldn't be in the Lu family's territory right now. I, an old woman, can't tolerate any sand in my eyes. You must continue to pay for the sins you committed in your previous life in this one."
Then, Mrs. Lu gave Bai Huan a warning look and said, "Please be strict with yourself in the future. If I hear you stirring up trouble outside again, don't blame me for making you lose face. I'm not dead yet, and you don't have the ability to go over me, humph."
After Mrs. Lu finished speaking, she left swiftly, and the guards quickly followed.
Bai Huan's face changed instantly. He threw the ceramic cup in his hand and stared at the direction where Old Lady Lu was walking away with a vicious look.
"Bai Jing, Bai Jing, why do you only have eyes for Bai Jing and that bastard? I've done so much, but you're blind and can't see it. Don't even think about me staying put. I'm going to cause unrest in your Lu family, and no one can stay out of it. If I don't have a good life, you won't have a good life either."
Bai Huan has never been a good person, as can be seen from the fact that she took away the husband of Miss Bai's family by pretending to be an adopted daughter.
How could an ordinary person do such a wicked thing? But she did it.
He thought he could rise to the top and make a class leap, but unfortunately the Lu family did not recognize it.
Even under the repeated pleas of Lu Ai's party, Old Lady Lu still forcefully separated them.
From this we can see how much Old Lady Lu hates evil.
Lu Jian quickly supported his mother and comforted her, "Mother, don't bother with that arrogant old man. Sooner or later, I will make her look at me with new eyes. I will achieve some achievements at the newspaper and make you look good. I will fight for you whatever you want."
Lu Jian is a man who knows how to talk. Bai Huan felt warm inside when she heard him. Her son is the best. She will have to rely on her son in the future.
When this old woman dies, she will have the final say in the Lu family. After all, the eldest wife of the Lu family has only given birth to a few daughters, so the Lu family's incense still depends on her own sons.
That old woman is just being stubborn and doesn't even look at the current situation. She can't really let the Lu family die out.
As for that bastard, there is no chance that he will appear in Beijing in this lifetime, so she has to go there quickly to deal with the follow-up issues.
In order to avoid attracting attention and being implicated in what happened in the past, she must not lose everything she has now.
After all, she maintained an understanding personality in front of Lu Ai's party.
After Lu Jian left, Bai Huan immediately dialed the number he knew by heart, gave the instructions, and bought a ticket to Bac Ninh Province.
What Gu Qingning didn't know was that someone was about to come and get killed.
The next day, she rushed to find Li Huan and explained the Li family's intentions, which made Li Huan blush.
