Chapter 107: No-show

Towards evening, the country road was quiet, except for the two brothers and sisters of the Lu family, there were almost no other pedestrians in sight.

Lu Shan stood on the side of the road, the expression on her face was very calm, but her heart was very entangled.

After all, she is not the arrogant Lu Shan before, and she will not be angry because of Lu Jue's few heavy words, the reason why she doesn't speak is because she only now finds that she is still a little rusty with the current environment, and she has not completely integrated into this society.

After all, she spent more than ten or twenty years in the barracks with a group of rough men in her previous life, and this subtle thought and habit made her unable to completely change for a while, so when she met Yuan Zijie, who had a good conversation with Lu Jue, she suddenly came up with the idea of inviting Lu Jue to be a guest.

Of course, even under this influence, she is not so friendly to everyone of the opposite sex. The reason why she treats Yuan Zijie differently is because she saved Yuan Zijie, and obviously, Yuan Zijie is also convinced of this, so she can have a sense of trust in him more. Another reason is Yuan Zijie himself, he is now at a low point in his life, and his relatives around him do not recognize his dream, so she has a good idea.

However, this matter will have to wait until tomorrow to see Yuan Zijie, and the top priority now is how to explain to Lu Jue, who is already angry.

"Alas, don't think that my brother's speech is ugly, he says that he is loyal to his ears, and I am also worried about you." After a long time without hearing Lu Shan's voice, Lu Jue couldn't help it, and his attitude softened first.

If Lu Shan really lost his temper with him before, maybe he could still harden his heart and ignore her. But when the scene he expected was completely different, in the face of such a quiet Lu Shan, he suddenly remembered her changes in the recent period, and somehow, the balance in his heart finally tilted in her favor.

Hearing Lu Jue's words of comfort, Lu Shan pursed her lips and smiled, a warm color appeared in her eyes, she pointed to the car, and said happily: "I know brother, I will pay attention to it in the future." It's not early, let's go back quickly, if it's late, grandparents will definitely be in a hurry. ”

Looking at Lu Shan's face and knowing that she really listened to her own opinions, the stone in Lu Jue's heart suddenly fell, and he thought with relief that his sister was really sensible, no longer so arrogant, and she couldn't listen to any opinions.

Quickly rode into the car and drove Lu Shan in the direction of Qili Village.

Lu Shan, who returned to her mother's house, was more cheerful and free like the fish who returned to the water, although the time spent in the Lu family was not much longer than the time in the Ye family, but the selfless care of her relatives still made her completely regard this place as her home.

Grandpa Lu and Grandma Lu greeted Lu Shan, who had gone to L City, looking left and right, looking up and down, and always felt that their granddaughter seemed to have lost weight. Grandma Lu was extravagant for the first time, killed the hens in the house, stewed a big pot of chicken soup, plus all kinds of meat brought back by Lu Shan, this day's dinner was even richer than the New Year!

After eating and drinking, Lu Shan helped clean up the dishes and chopsticks, and boiled a large pot of bath water, the temperature has gradually risen in the past few days, although Grandpa Lu and Grandma Lu are countrymen, they also love cleanliness and are very diligent in taking a bath.

Yesterday, Lu Shan spent the night at Ye's house for the first time, and because Ye Gang was not at home, she was not embarrassed to boil water to take a bath by herself, so she boiled enough water to let herself take a comfortable hot bath.

Early the next morning, Lu Jue and Lu Shan got up, the two of them washed quickly, finished breakfast as fast as possible, and rode out of the door.

However, as soon as they were discharged from the hospital, before they had time to get in the car, they saw a five or six-year-old boy running towards them, shouting as he ran: "Brother Lu Jue, Sister Lu Shan, answer the phone, there is your phone!" ”

The two siblings stopped, looked at the little boy who had run in front of them, and recognized at a glance that this was the little grandson of the village chief Li Guofu, named Li Hao, nicknamed "Mouse (meaning mouse)".

Answering the phone? At this hour, who would call the village to find them?

Lu Jue's eyes sank, and he suddenly thought of a possibility, and his mood was not bad.

But he wasn't sure who was calling, so he decided to answer the call first.

"Little mouse, do you know who called?" Lu Jue rode a car, carrying Lu Shan and Li Hao, and asked.

Li Hao is almost six years old, small, thin and dark, and people who don't know still think that he was abused by someone. But everyone in the village knows that Li Hao's appearance and physique are completely inherited from his son Li Jianjun.

Don't look at Li Hao's small appearance, but his little head is clever, and he is already very sensible at a young age. Hearing the question of Lu Jue's brother, whom he admired the most, Li Hao replied very excitedly: "I know, I know, I heard my grandfather ask his name, it is a person surnamed Yuan!" ”

Surname Yuan? Except for Yuan Zijie, don't think about him.

"Brother, Yuan Zijie is calling now, there should be something that can't be delayed." Lu Shan guessed the reason for Yuan Zijie's call.

There are some small regrets in her heart, she originally wanted to take this opportunity to see if she could cooperate with Yuan Zijie, and it seems that she will find other opportunities.

When he arrived at Li Guofu's house and said hello to the Li family, Lu Jue went into the house to answer the phone, while Lu Shan stayed outside and was caught by the Li family's aunt and chatted.

What kind of person Li Guofu is, Lu Shan has seen it as soon as she was reborn in Qili Village, so she is still very patient with the family of such an old man who is worthy of her admiration.

Although, the content of the Li family's aunt's conversation is a little strange.

"Shanshan, over the years, your grandparents have not been easy, you have worked hard to study and live with your brothers and sisters, don't be blinded by the world of flowers outside! If that's the case, how can your grandparents live? The Li family's aunt took Lu Shan's hand with a straight face, "Don't blame the aunt for being nosy, I'm also for your good, you drank my milk when you were a child!" If you take it seriously, I'm your mom, don't do anything stupid, do you hear? ”

Looking at the worried expression on the face of the Li family's aunt, Lu Shan was a little puzzled, and she heard this in a fog.

Thinking of what Lu Jue said when she picked her up at the station yesterday, she was keenly aware that something must have happened at home, but she didn't know why, not only did Lu Jue not tell her, but even Grandpa Lu and Grandma Lu's face did not show any traces.

Lu Shan adjusted her mood and followed the words of the Li family's aunt, "Auntie, how can I dislike what you said, I remember how good you were to me when you were a child, and you were better than my mother was to me!" ”

Although her words are exaggerated, after all, she is an outsider, and her memory is not particularly complete, and her memory is even more vague for this kind of childhood incident. But she knew about the fact that the Li family's aunt had breasted her, and this was what Grandma Lu said when she gossiped with her.

When she was just born, Mingyu saw that it was a girl, so she naturally didn't like it. It's strange to say, Mingyu is obviously a city girl, and she is also a scholarly and cultural person, but her patriarchal thinking is even stricter than that of rural people. As soon as Lu Shan was born, she fed her for a day, and then said that she had no milk and no longer cared about this daughter.

Although Mingyu doesn't like her daughter, the Lu family likes this little baby carved in pink, seeing that Mingyu is unwilling to feed her daughter, Grandma Lu has no choice but to hold Lu Shan and borrow milk everywhere to drink. At that time, there were many children in every family, but because of the special era, no one was rich, and most of the families who had children could not even sit down in confinement, and the milk was naturally not enough, and their own children could not be fed, who was willing to lend other people's children to drink.

Seeing Lu Shan, who was malnourished after drinking rice paste, Grandma Lu was so anxious that her mouth was full of sores, and then Aunt Li couldn't stand it, so she borrowed milk from Lu Shan and fed her for three months.

Every time Grandma Lu talked about it, she was in tears, hating and resenting Mingyu, her daughter-in-law.

Aunt Li listened to Lu Shan's words, a smile suddenly appeared on her face, she nodded, and said, "It is said that only mother is good in this world, but your mother is ......."

"Ahem!" Before Aunt Li finished speaking, she was interrupted by a middle-aged man with a sturdy body, who walked out of the hall and pulled the corners of her mouth at Lu Shan very unnaturally, "Shanshan is here, come in and sit!" ”

Immediately, he glared at Aunt Li and said in a low voice: "There is still pig food boiling in the stove, I'm afraid it's time to turn over the pot, you go and take a look." ”

Only then did Aunt Li realize what she had said to Lu Shan, and she immediately regretted it.

No matter how bad Lu Shan's mother is, she shouldn't say such things in front of Lu Shan, she reached out and patted her mouth as she walked towards the stove, secretly hating why she didn't control this mouth just now.

As soon as Aunt Li left, Lu Shan's eyes narrowed slightly, and she thought, could it be that Lu Jue's mistake yesterday was related to Mingyu?

What does that Mingyu want to do?

Want money? No way! When she came, the Lu family was so poor that they couldn't even open the pot, and every meal of sweet potato porridge and even a piece of meat had to be reasonably arranged for the tooth sacrifice.

Need? Lu Shan felt that this possibility was even less possible. With Mingyu's conditions and scheming, she can abandon her family and children and return to the city, and she will naturally form a new family. In this case, Mingyu is afraid that he can't wait to break up the relationship with the two children of the Lu family, and he can't wait for the two to be born, so how can he come back to recognize his relatives?

Unless she can't give birth.

Lu Shan pursed her lips and simply put this matter aside, not paying attention to it at all.

In her memory, there is no specific existence of Mingyu, I don't know if the previous Lu Shan was too obsessed, or the memory automatically deleted this person.

In short, Lu Shan flipped through her memories, except for knowing that she had a mother, who abandoned her family a few years ago and resolutely returned to the city, there was no specificity. Even what the other party looked like, Lu Shan couldn't find a memory.

It seems that in the original Lu Shan's heart, there is also a great hatred for Mingyu's mother. That's why she cares so much about the world in the city. Perhaps, she just wants to see if life in the city is really so good that it can make a woman resolutely abandon her own flesh and blood.

Lu Jue quickly answered the phone and came out.
