Chapter 45: Shipwrecked at Sea
The dawn of the morning lifts off the light veil of the night, the sun covers the earth, the autumn is peaceful, the clouds and breeze are light, and the climate is slightly cool.
"Have you heard, those people from the Lu family went to the house early in the morning to make trouble."
"It's really a sin, if this Young Master Lu is not sick or sick, which round will they be presumptuous here."
"No, if you want me to say ......" The street vendor was about to speak, but was stopped by someone next to him pulling his sleeve.
I saw a man with a fat head and big ears swaggering over, wearing gold and silver, and he couldn't wait to raise his neck to the sky when he walked, which was very funny.
"Look, I haven't seen a rich man." As if sensing the gaze of others, he turned his head and scolded, the flesh on his stomach trembled three times with this turn, and the big gold chain on his waist was also exposed, and his body was full of the breath of an upstart.
The person who was about to speak before hurriedly shifted his gaze and lowered his head to hide the disdain in his eyes, "A toad is a toad, and no matter how luxurious the clothes are, you can't hold a white swan." ”
Of course, this was said in the heart and not let anyone hear it.
The Lu family, one of the three major families in Pingcheng, was once very prosperous, and the ancestors accumulated monstrous wealth in business for generations, with many shops under their names, and 100 acres of fertile land with 100,000 family properties, which can be called the first wealthy businessman in Pingcheng.
In today's generation, because of the opening up of the maritime trade business, the Lu family and his wife are kind-hearted and benevolent, and the people of Pingcheng have more or less received their favors, and they are grateful from the bottom of their hearts.
Everyone can't stop envying the Lu family when they mention it, but now it has long lost its original pomp.
Up to now, the younger generation has only one son, and his legs are disabled and unable to walk, so he can only sit in a wheelchair all day long. Originally, the Lu family had a big business, and the Lu family and his wife also hired a special maid to take care of him, and the life of the young master of the Lu family was also rich in clothes and food.
But now everything has changed, the Lu family and his wife unfortunately suffered a shipwreck when they went to sea to do business some time ago, and no one on the entire ship survived.
There is only one young man with a disabled leg left in the huge Lu family, and the maids and servants in the house are scattered, and some of them ignore the past master and servant relationship, and take away the Lu family's jewelry and sell it.
The people on the side of the Lu family took this opportunity to divide up the property, leaving him no way to live, if it weren't for some ornaments that couldn't be dug up, these people would be eager to empty the Lu family.
For Lu Lian, the treatment during this time was really falling from the sky to the ground. In the past, everyone was in a hurry, but now everyone has to spit on him when they see him, "waste" and "lame".
"I said cousin, look at what time it is now, your father and mother are dead, and no one can cover you." That fat man is the eldest son of Lu Lone's second uncle's family, he doesn't learn all day long, he is lazy to eat, and his heart is even uglier. After the Lu family was down, they came to find trouble with Lu Lin every day, and took pleasure in it.
"If you obediently call me uncle, I will consider leaving you some money, otherwise you won't blame me for starving." Lu Chao stepped on the chair arrogantly, pointed at the young man in front of him and shouted.
Dividing up all other people's property, and running in front of others to make a charity look is really shameless to the extreme.
The young man sat quietly in his wheelchair, ignoring the scene in front of him, with a faint expression. He looked to be fifteen or sixteen years old, his complexion was a little pale, and his body was a little thin, and he probably hadn't been able to eat properly in these days.
But the facial features are delicate and cold, and it is not difficult to see that after a few years, he must be a handsome son, which forms a sharp contrast with the person opposite.
"Don't let you say that, young master, it's just a group of ungrateful villains, bah, you will definitely be punished in the future." A hot-tempered little girl was angry and stepped forward to scold.
The Lu family and his wife also took good care of these collateral when they were alive, usually they took advantage of the Lu family, and the Lu family and his wife turned a blind eye and passed, who would have thought that they had raised a group of white-eyed wolves to come out, and as soon as the people here died, they couldn't wait to come over and divide the property.
"What a fierce little girl, I like it." Lu Chao was not angry, his expression was obscene, and he walked forward with a smile and was ready to hug the little girl.
He is notoriously lustful in Pingcheng, and he does a lot of things like robbing people's daughters, but the family is rich and powerful, and the reputation of the Lu family is rampant and domineering outside, and the people are complaining, can't they hide if they can't afford to provoke? Lu Chao walked on the street, and everyone avoided him.
Lu Chao was obese and his body was not very flexible, and the little maid dodged as soon as he dodged, but he almost fell down because of inertia.
Lu Chao was angry, "Arrest this little lady for me."
Two people stepped forward to restrain the little maid, and one left and one right came to Lu Chao.
"Slap", Lu Chao slapped it, the little girl's face was turned to the side, and the redness and swelling that were visible to the naked eye were enough to show how ruthless Lu Chao's hand was, and a trace of blood flowed down the corner of her mouth.
Lu Xiao stopped pushing the wheelchair's hand, and looked at Lu Chao with a cold and hard look, "I advise you not to go too far." ”
The little girl's name is Liu Ye, she was rescued by Lu Lin from the bandits when she went out once, and she has been waiting for him since then, and she is also the only little girl in Lu Mansion who has not left. is reasonable, Lu Lin can't leave her alone.
"Lu Chao, I know what you want, I'll tell you the news if you let her go." Lu Xiao opened his mouth lightly, as if he didn't know how important the news he was going to say next was.
"Young master, no, it was left to you by Madame." Liu Ye covered his face and spoke, and his words were a little unclear.
Lu Chao walked over happily, outsiders don't know, can he still be unclear. By chance, I learned that Mrs. Lu had left a large amount of property to Lu Xiao before, and Lu Chao had selfish intentions and didn't tell anyone.
Where the things are hidden now only Lu Lin knows, he has long wanted to swallow this huge amount of money, so he often comes to find trouble with Lu Lian, but he didn't expect Lu Lin to have a clear heart.
"It's been a waste of my time. Don't say it, you kid is pretty good-looking, and this little face is more tender than a woman's. As he spoke, Lu Chao was about to reach out and touch it, but Lu Xiao turned his head disgustingly, not letting the fat pig's hand touch him.
"If you dare to touch him, I will dare to chop off your hand!" Shi Jing kicked open the door and walked in angrily, followed by two teams of bodyguards, which were specially assigned to her by Song Yan today, and they were all first-class good players.
God knows that she listened to the news of the Lu family along the way, and knew what kind of life Lu Lin had recently, so she couldn't wait to come and pick him up earlier, if she hadn't been recuperating in bed, where would Lu Lin have suffered from this.
Who would have thought that as soon as he came, he ran into a disgusting person who was reaching out to touch him, Shi Jing almost wanted to kill this person on the spot, so he took a deep breath before stepping forward.
