Chapter 20 + Chapter 21
"Well, it looks like it's real."
Lu Shengtang looked at Lu Qianqian and seemed to be very good in the kitchen, although I don't know when Lu Qianqian learned cooking, but girls should still be able to cook some dishes.
"Uncle, you don't have to worry about my craftsmanship, you can just sit in the living room and wait to eat."
Although Lu Qianqian is not a chef, there is no problem in cooking some home-cooked food. Three dishes were made quickly.
"It looks good, it should be delicious."
Lu Shengtang looked at the dishes brought out by Lu Qianqian, and was not worried about hurting Lu Qianqian's little heart at all.
"Uncle, if you say that, I'm really going to be sad." Lu Qianqian is a little helpless, shouldn't the elders all praise her?
"Hehe, if you want to hear your uncle's compliment, then wait until your uncle tastes the dishes you cooked."
Lu Shengtang was originally hopeless, but he didn't expect Lu Qianqian's craftsmanship to be so good. It's simply amazing.
"The taste is really good, I can't imagine that Qianqian has such craftsmanship, it's really surprising."
"Uncle, there will be many things that will surprise you in the future."
Lu Qianqian must show her changes in front of others little by little, and then show all these changes to others to let others know that this is the real Lu Qianqian.
"Qianqian came to find her uncle, it definitely won't be so simple, you better tell me what happened."
After eating and eating, Lu Shengtang now wants to know what Lu Qianqian wants to do, and the current Lu Qianqian will definitely not be Lu Qianqian who has nothing to do to chat with him.
"I came, in fact, there are some things, I have never known my father very well, and I don't understand why my father is with Lin Yuxiang, so I really want to ask my uncle."
Lu Qianqian came this time to know the love and hatred of the previous generation. Lin Yuxiang was the murderer of the original owner's parents, but Lu Tianyuan still married Lin Yuxiang. Why is that?
"Daddy doesn't like Mommy? So after his mother died, he married Lin Yuxiang directly. ”
"Don't be cranky, it's not what you think." Lu Shengtang couldn't have imagined that Lu Qianqian would have such an idea. "This was actually a long time ago."
"At that time, our conditions were far from being as good as they are now, your grandfather was just an ordinary citizen who worked in a landlord's house in the town, and his income was meager, although it would not make your frail grandmother and my two brothers hungry, but the quality of life was not very high in those days, and he did not even have the spare energy to support me and your father to go to school at the same time. Seeing that I was about to go from elementary school to junior high school, and at this time your grandmother died of a serious illness, and your grandfather, who was already overworked, was overworked for a while, and was also in a trance, messing up an important errand, so he lost his job in the landlord's house, and the family conditions were unsustainable since then. And at that most difficult juncture, your father, that is, my brother, resolutely gave up the opportunity to continue his school and dropped out of school in the second year of junior high school. ”
Listening to Lu Shengtang's unhurried story, Lu Qianqian nodded, Lu Tianyuan once told his daughter about the past, Lu Qianqian has such a memory.
Originally, although she didn't live a rich and expensive life, she didn't worry about money, so she didn't really understand the difficult situation back then, but imagining that kind of scene, she still had a dignified face and sighed in her heart.
"If it weren't for your father, I probably wouldn't have been able to go back to school." Lu Shengtang said as he spoke, as if he had thought of something. "At that time, your father went out alone, relying on a few peach trees in our backyard, starting from a stall vendor selling peaches, carrying a flat burden, getting up early and returning late, and wandering around various towns and townships to make a living."
Lu Qianqian listened to Lu Shengtang talk about the past, she never remembered these things, and it seemed that Lu Tianyuan had never said it to Lu Qianqian.
Lu Qianqian couldn't help but be curious, could it be that Lu Tianyuan didn't want his daughter to remember the bittersweet memories and then work hard?
It's just that the painless thing in the past, I didn't say anything about the hard work of starting my own business, Lu Qianqian didn't understand.
"Looks like your dad didn't tell you anything." Lu Shengtang looked at Lu Qianqian's expression, he didn't know anything, and he knew that it must be because Lu Tianyuan didn't say anything.
"Yes, Dad didn't tell me anything, including how he struggled and how he met my mother, Dad didn't say anything."
"It's understandable that your father didn't say it."
Lu Shengtang seemed to have thought of something.
"At that time, it was not peaceful, the law and order were not as good as now, and there were often local hooligans who bullied him into outsiders and teased him, and even once, your father was beaten by them, and a whole load of peaches was trampled to pieces. Your dad is precocious and has stronger self-esteem than his peers, so how can he be willing to suffer? Relying on a thin man who was less than 1.7 meters, relying on a brick picked up from the ground, he forcibly made the hooligan leader pay the price of blood, and smashed the hooligan leader with a scoop on his head, although he himself was beaten by a group of people with a blue nose and swollen face, and he couldn't get out of bed for a few days. ”
"It's really surprising that Dad still has such a time." Lu Qianqian couldn't have imagined that Lu Tianyuan would be such a person. If, at that time, I was by his side, I might have to say that I would have done a good job for the rest of my life.
"Not really."
When Lu Shengtang originally spoke, he was still elated, but gradually, his expression was not very good-looking.
"Uncle, did you think of something bad?"
Lu Qianqian looked at Lu Shengtang's face and couldn't help but ask curiously.
"At that time, I was in junior high school in another county, and I didn't know that something like this happened to my brother, but he still kept giving me money. Until one day, I heard from a fellow from my hometown that my brother had stabbed someone and was imprisoned in the class room......"
“!”
Originally, Lu Qianqian thought that something might have happened, but she didn't want it to be such a big deal. Something like getting into the classroom, no matter what time it is, is very shocking.
"Yes, you heard me right." Looking at Lu Qianqian's shocked expression, Lu Shengtang still repeated. "That's because your dad was really angry afterwards, he sharpened the knife every day when he was recuperating from his injuries, and rushed to the local area at night, stabbed the hooligan leader three times in a row, and took revenge on him!"
"Of course, the gangster leader is not dead."
Originally, Lu Qianqian was still thinking about whether the gangster leader should be dead, this is a big crime. However, he soon calmed down, and if the hooligan leader died, where would he still be himself. But the idea was overturned by himself, and in that chaotic era, human life was not necessarily the most important.
I don't know why, after supporting Lu Shengtang's supplement, Lu Qianqian's heart was still relieved. Whatever the reason, one person does not have any qualifications for another person's life.
"Don't worry, your father is not such a brave and unscrupulous person." Lu Shengtang looked at Lu Qianqian, who had changed his face, and explained. "I heard from your dad that he deliberately didn't stab the other party at that time, he just wanted that guy to learn a lesson and tell him that our Lu family is not easy to mess with! didn't really kill other people's lives as soon as their brains were hot. After all, in that case, one life will pay for one life, and you will have no good fruit to eat. ”
"Mm-hmm, Dad is really thoughtful."
Lu Qianqian nodded, it is not worth it for others to put themselves in, and such a lesson is not unavoidable.
"But uncle, the other party will definitely not let my father leave the class room so easily."
"Not really." Lu Shengtang thought that at that time, his father was also worried about his gray hair, and the Lu family had no way. "After your father was arrested, our Lu family had no choice at all. Later, because of this, your grandfather specially cheekily went back to beg his former master, the landlord surnamed Lin......"
"Lin... The landlord with the surname? Lu Qianqian felt that the appearance of this person was not an accident. Could it be said? ”
"Yes, you're right, this landlord surnamed Lin is the biological father of your stepmother Lin Yuxiang, because his real name is Lin Yuanhuan, people gave him a nickname called Lin Yuanwai." Lu Shengtang said affirmatively. "This landlord, say it's a good person, where were there any good people at that time? But you have to say that he is a bad person, but he is not the great evil person. ”
"It seems that the matter between my father and Lin Yuxiang will only appear because of this landlord." Lu Qianqian felt that she knew, it was because this landlord had helped her father, otherwise how could her father marry Lin Yuxiang?
"The relationship between our family and the forest landlord is not just like this." Every time Lu Shengtang thought of this, he felt pity.
"If this forester gets rid of this little problem in the eyes of too much money, he can even be said to be a kind person, if it weren't for your grandfather who inadvertently broke his beloved collector's edition of antiques, as for what kind of antiques, I don't know, but it is certain that the object must be priceless. Anyway, if it weren't for this incident, the forester wouldn't have kicked your grandfather out of the house in a fit of rage. He knew about our family situation, and he didn't force your grandfather to pay a debt, but just asked your grandfather to write a huge IOU, and also asked his old man to promise that if he couldn't repay his debts in this life, his father would pay the debts to his son. ”
"Oh my God! There are still such people. So what is the deadline for this debt repayment? It's not going to be over, it's going to be over. ”
Lu Qianqian couldn't imagine that at that time, it was called an antique, and it was a collector's edition of an antique, how much was it worth.
"You're right, there's no deadline." Lu Shengtang nodded. "In general, the forester is a good person, although because of the antiques, he doesn't like to see your grandfather, but seeing your grandfather begging bitterly, in the end, the forester who remembered the old love still moved his heart of compassion, used some connections, and bailed your father out."
"I believe that after my father found out about this, he must have felt uncomfortable." Lu Qianqian empathized and felt that if this matter was not solved by herself, but the people in her family would be affected, she would definitely feel uncomfortable.
"yes, that's how your dad is." Lu Shengtang nodded. "After your father came out, he learned that the person who saved him was a forester, and without saying a word, he came to the door and asked the forester to take him in for a long time, for life, on the grounds of paying off his father's debts, of course, everyone knew that he was not only to repay his debts, but also to repay his kindness."
"Since then, your father has served in the forester's house, because he is shrewd and capable, and hard-working, he is deeply valued by the forester, and the forester's body has become less and less tough in the past few years, slowly, your father, a young man in his early twenties, has become the Lin family's housekeeper and deputy, taking care of the Lin family's livelihood for the master."
"I have to say, your father, he was born to be a business genius!"
When he said this, Lu Shengtang's eyes burst out with unconcealable admiration and admiration, Rao is himself has reached such a height, and the brother in his memory is still the existence he admires the most.
"In this way, this forester is still very good." Not everyone has such vision and courage to dare to use young people, even if their father behaves so well, the master family doesn't believe it, everything is in vain. "Know what it means to know people and be good at work."
"yes, I just know too much, that's why I made some wrong decisions."
Lu Shengtang seemed to have thought of something, and the expression on his face became very strange, as if he was very angry and happy, with a contradictory expression.
"The forester's family originally made a fortune by engaging in the silk business, but after your father took over the business, in just one year, the Lin family's annual net profit doubled! As your dad's income has doubled, our family's life has gradually improved, and I can finally focus on my studies with peace of mind. It's just that our old father, your grandfather, left without a few years of happiness. ”
"In this process, your dad ran business by walking around, his contacts gradually expanded, and he got to know a lot of business bosses, with his down-to-earth temperament and kindness, your dad can be said to be a mixed wind and water in the business circle, and many bosses can establish a friendly and trusting relationship, and since then he has gradually emerged in the business circle."
"At that time, he first came into contact with the oil industry, the oil industry was not as developed as it is now, but your father he saw the business opportunities in this industry, and proposed to the forester to attack the oil industry at that time, but that year the forester was terminally ill and unable to preside over the overall situation, out of trust in your father, the forester gave his only daughter Lin Yuxiang to him, and intended to hand over the property of the Lin family to him to help Lin Yuxiang operate, the words are very clear, all the property of the Lin family belongs to him. But Lin Yuxiang resolutely refused to marry him because he looked down on your poor father, let alone handed over the Lin family's property to him to share, so he regarded his father's last wish as a void, not only did he not marry your father, but also drove him out of the Lin family, he always looked down on your father, and later married an overseas Chinese named Zhuge Yu. ”
"Zhuge ?"
After Lu Qianqian heard Lu Shengtang's words, she felt very familiar with this surname in her heart, and felt as if she had heard this surname somewhere.
However, this did not prevent Lu Qianqian from continuing to support Lu Shengtang to talk about his father, especially when he heard the back, Lu Qianqian was already angry and dissatisfied.
"What? Lin Yuxiang, she used to look down on my dad? ”
The implication is, since you look down on my father, why did you still get married?
Just to occupy the Lu family's existing huge family business? It's not enough to enjoy the life of fine clothes and food, and even do not hesitate to use the death book to do things that hurt the heavens and reason?
"It's not just looking down on it, it's just cheap! Naked insult! ”
Lu Shengtang snorted heavily, his voice trembling with the sudden surge of anger.
"I happened to be back from studying abroad that year, and I saw the snarky look of that woman holding another man's hand and poking her fingers to chase away your father, and I will never forget the few words she said at that time, which were tantamount to a beast's conscience."
"What she means is that a lowly person like your father who takes a fancy to their Lin family's money and is shameless is not worthy of sharing assets with her. At that time, her words were very polite, and she was simply personally attacked everywhere, trampling on your father's dignity. ”
"Those unbearable foul words, hearing the itching of even my teeth, almost rushed up to give her two slaps on the spot, in fact, I almost did that, but your father pulled me back...... He didn't say anything, just shook his head at me expressionlessly, and took me home with me, not resentful at all. ”
And even after a long time, he never said a word about it. Even after Lin Yuxiang's divorce, she was willing to accept him as his wife and become your stepmother, all in order to keep his promise to Lin Yuanwai. ”
"Now that I think about it, my brother, he's such a very measured man. But that Lin Yuxiang. Hum! In the past, he was so rude to your father, and now he dares to marry him with a cheeky face, and he also plots to belong to the property of our Lu family! ”
For the generosity of his brother, Lu Shengtang looked proud and his eyes were bright, but at the same time, he was indignant at his kindness.
If it weren't for his brother, how could Lin Yuxiang, a tumor, be planted in the big family of the Lu family?
"Uncle, don't worry, I will never let our Lu family's property fall into the hands of such an immoral and unrighteous person." In particular, this man is also an enemy of his own parents.
Lu Qianqian swore that she would personally send this person to where she should go. If you use the same means as the other party, you will definitely become the same person as the other party if there is no accident, so Lu Qianqian must not use the same means as the other party.
"Uncle believes in you."
Lu Qianqian's progress is seen by Lu Shengtang, so I believe that Lu Qianqian will definitely have no problem.
