Chapter 25 Father Lu is so angry that he spits blood

"Qiuyue, you are right."

Mother Lu nodded at Xu Qiuyue, and sighed in her heart that she had made the right choice to marry this daughter-in-law.

If you think about it carefully, what Xu Qiuyue said makes sense.

Lu Yuan probably just started and he really liked her.

But no man can tolerate the betrayal of the one he loves.

Now I'm afraid it's just out of spite.

After Xu Qiuyue left, Lu's mother felt much better. She brought Xu Qiuyue's soup and went to see Lu's father.

Father Lu was busy in the government office, busy with official duties, and he was also old.

This soup should be given to Father Lu for nourishment first.

As for Lu Yuan.

Mother Lu asked her maid to buy Lu Yuan's favorite pastries when he was a child. After she met Lu's father, she would go to see Lu Yuan to do the same.

Father Lu was so angry yesterday that he vomited blood.

Mother Lu is more worried about Father Lu.

Lu Yuan is still alive and well, so there is no need to worry too much.

When Lu's mother found Lu's father, he was still reviewing official documents.

"Changqing, your brows are furrowed again. Why don't you take a rest for a while? How many things can a small Taohua Town have to deal with?"

Mother Lu asked Father Lu with some confusion.

"In this small town of Taohua, your son Lu Yuan has become the biggest profiteer, forcing women of good families into prostitution. He is responsible for all kinds of evil deeds.

He also hired a black-hearted lawyer to specifically oppose me. Today, he was in court and seized the land of innocent people. The common people were starving and could not afford to eat, but he deliberately raised the rent to force people to sell the land to him.

If farmers lose their land, they can only sell themselves into slavery.

He already has so much money, what does he need so much more for?

How could I have given birth to such a beast? "

Father Lu was so angry that he almost couldn't breathe.

He just couldn't understand why he and Lu's mother, both kind people, gave birth to such a beast in human form.

Back then, when he was five years old, he dared to ask his servants to tie up the maid who served him and freeze her to death in the snow.

When he was in the capital, his father-in-law and mother-in-law doted on Lu Yuan so much that he had no way to discipline them.

In the name of strengthening his body, he dragged Lu Yuan into the snow to let him experience the feeling of cold so that he would know his mistakes.

He was originally a top scholar.

Be able to stay in the capital.

However, his father-in-law and mother-in-law in the capital were very powerful, and he did not like the nobles' disregard for human life.

He thought that perhaps it was the atmosphere in the capital that had corrupted Lu Yuan.

So he brought Lu Yuan to this small town in the countryside, allowing him to experience the sufferings of the people and become a person like him.

But the more Lu Yuan is taught, the more he becomes crooked.

Now I go against him every day.

Almost all the things that happened in Taohua Town were found by Lu Yuan to go against him.

Even the previous master was forced to death by Lu Yuan.

And the current master is also very afraid of Lu Yuan's reputation.

As for getting married, it was made up by Lu's father himself.

There is no favor between the Lu family and the Xu family at all.

The reason why he let Lu Yuan marry the girl from the Xu family.

I just simply thought that marrying a farm girl who does farm work every day would make her stronger and won't be bullied by Lu Yuan.

Otherwise, his cousin's biological daughter would have to marry Lu Yuan.

He didn't want Lu Yuan to ruin such a good daughter. But Lu Yuan was old enough.

Zhu Rong has also been looking for a marriage partner for Lu Yuan.

This is also why there was a betrothal gift of three thousand taels. It was this that Lu's father forced Lu Yuan to give by using the favor of saving his life.

He donated all his salary to the poor people in order to reduce Lu Yuan's sins.

"Changqing, have some soup. This soup was made for you by Qiuyue herself. She learned medicine from a barefoot doctor in the countryside when she was young and knows some pharmacology. She has also read a lot of medical books these days. She made this soup specifically for you based on your physical condition."

Zhu Rong originally wanted to share with Lu Changqing that the medicinal herbs were bought by Lu Yuan.

But she didn't say it out loud, for she was afraid that Lu Changqing would know the truth and would not drink the soup.

"Alas, Qiuyue is a good child. If I had known she was such a good child, I would never let her marry this wicked boy and ruin such a good girl in vain!"

Lu Changqing also sighed.

He originally thought that the farm girl would be very vulgar.

But Xu Qiuyue is like a lotus in midsummer, pure white and gorgeous.

Her eyebrows and eyes are picturesque, lively and bright, as if she can see through people's hearts.

Moreover, there was a hint of scholarly air between his brows, and most importantly, he was studious. He had tested Xu Qiuyue's homework and found that he really did not have any talent, but that was because he had no chance to study before. Now it has only been a short time, and there is no teacher to teach him. He has been reading on his own. He gave him some pointers in his spare time, and he has already shown some talent.

This further proves that Xu Qiuyue is incredibly talented, just like him.

If he were a man, he might be able to pass the imperial examination.

"Changqing, our Yuan'er is not bad either. You should stop being prejudiced against him. He is indeed stingy. Qiuyue has been married to him for such a long time, but he never gives her a penny. Qiuyue is still working on the farm to make money.

But you see, Yuan'er was still forced to pay a lot of money.

It shows that he is very filial to you as his father."

"You are such a fool. Qiuyue married into our family and is now a member of our family. Why don't you give Qiuyue any money?"

"Changqing, didn't you say last time that there was a famine in the town next door and many people starved to death? I gave you all my money to provide disaster relief.

Now there are only a few jewelry left, and I gave a few sets of jewelry to Qiuyue.

Qiuyue is a good child, she doesn't want money, she is worried that Yuan'er will know and then ignore her, you also know Yuan'er's temper. "

Mother Lu did not tell Lu Changqing that although Lu Yuan did not give her money, if she needed anything, she only needed to ask the housekeeper and the housekeeper would do it immediately.

Father Lu is a good man and cannot bear to see the people suffer.

But there are too many people suffering.

Especially for disaster relief, a lot of the money from the imperial court was always swallowed up by corrupt officials.

Very few people were sent down to this county.

No amount of possessions would be enough to fill the void.

Even her dowry was sold in several pieces.

Later, he was redeemed by Lu Yuan, but Lu Changqing was not told.

Many people think Lu Changqing is stupid.

But Lu's mother just loves Lu Changqing like this.

Lu Changqing is handsome, talented and kind-hearted.

For all these years, he didn't have a mistress, let alone concubines.

Moreover, her biological mother died early, so she didn't have to serve her in-laws every day after she got married. Not to mention how comfortable her life was.

Unfortunately, Lu Yuan only inherited 50% of Lu Changqing's handsomeness.

"Rong'er, how come we have such a son? If he didn't look like you, I would have suspected that the report was wrong."

Lu Changqing was also helpless.

"Changqing, Yuan'er is still more like you."

Mother Lu replied to Lu Changqing.

Looking at Mother Lu like this, Lu Changqing suddenly smiled and said to her, "Like me, yes, like me. My Rong'er is innocent and kind. You are willing to share your dowry with the poor people. It would be great if Yuan'er inherited your character!"
