Chapter 48: Calm

This is a rare quiet day in Binh Duong City, and it is even quiet and silent.

Since Mu Han returned to the Separation Realm, Wang Xiong told her that it had been about ten days since Mrs. Lu returned to the house, and even the annoying 'relative' had left, and Mu Han had not gotten any news about the Lu Mansion for a long time.

Compared with the calm outside, Lu Mansion is now more calm, and there is a hint of desolation in the calm, which makes the people in it shudder.

Lu Jiajia may be the most disappointed person in the Lu Mansion, at least that's what she thinks.

That night, Lu Jiajia, who was still refining his qi with Li Ye, heard the noise outside the mansion, saw his father, and walked out of the mansion with a smile that he had never seen before, but as if he had some kind of entanglement, as if he didn't see himself.

Then she knew that her biological mother, who only existed in the mouth of her elders, had returned to Lufu.

Remembering what the fairy sister had said to herself more than ten days ago, Lu Jiajia was a little excited, and she had an incomparable yearning for the mother she had never met.

What does she look like?

Is she gentle or stern, taciturn or witty?

...... the hell she What kind of person is he?

With many questions, Lu Jiajia saw the woman next to her father who had been smiling, dressed very decently, but with a trace of haggard and indifference on her face, as if she was very tired, and the people and things here were strange to her.

"Jiajia, come and see your mother. Walking on the road, Lu Qiuming finally saw Lu Jiajia and beckoned to her.

Before I saw her, Lu Jiajia had always been full of curiosity and expectation for her mother. After watching from afar, she always felt that her mother was different from her imagination, but it seemed that her mother should be like this. was called over by his father to visit, but Lu Jiajia's mind was messed up, and she stayed there and didn't know what to do.

"Jiajia, what's the daze, come here. ”

It wasn't until Lu Qiuming called her again that Lu Jiajia moved her steps and slowly moved in front of her mother.

The stranger he should have been most familiar with stared at him quietly, and there was no trace of emotion in his slightly tired phoenix eyes, as if he was looking at a person who had nothing to do with him. No, more than that, this kind of look, as if she was not looking at a person, but a dead thing.

The word mother, who has reached the throat, can't say anything, that kind of indifference, like the cold wind and snow in the cold winter, blows her heart. It was a cold she had never experienced before, a cold colder than ice, and it was her mother's heart that didn't care about herself!

Lu Jiajia's expression darkened and she was silent.

He bowed lightly to his mother.

"You're Jiajia?" she finally spoke, but this question, which should have been full of love, was cold as if it was about to freeze.

"Yes. Lu Jiajia nodded, and her tone couldn't help but be the same as her, full of indifference and indifference.

Between the two, it doesn't look like a scene where mother and daughter haven't seen each other for decades, even if the conversation between strangers is not so cold.

However, Lu Qiuming didn't seem to feel it, he still smiled, and said softly to Lu Jiajia: "Okay, your mother is tired of traveling, and let her rest first, and you can come to visit her tomorrow." ”

"Hmm. Lu Jiajia responded, bowed again, and stepped aside.

Mrs. Lu glanced at her, as if she had thought of something, and the corners of her mouth rarely raised a slight arc, but it seemed to have a deep mockery.

"It's kind of educated. ”

This sound very abrupt at first glance, no one knows why she said such a thing, Lu Jiajia, who had retreated to the side, had a stiff face, but she didn't wait for the next step, and when she looked up again, Mrs. Lu and Lu Qiuye had gradually walked away.

Li Ye is still here, and he didn't leave with his master like this today.

He knew that the master didn't need him to accompany him today, but the young lady needed someone to accompany him now, although that person might not be himself.

"Uncle Li, I kind of believe what you said. Lu Jiajia leaned on the rockery on the side and said lightly, "Sister Fairy said beautifully, I'm afraid I can't feel it." ”

"Miss, Madame has not returned before, and I am not all familiar with what I said, in fact, Madame has always been like this, she is so indifferent to anyone, you don't have to care. Li Ye persuaded.

"But I'm her daughter after all. ”

Li Ye was silent, his mother was a person he had lost a long time ago, and it could even be said that he had never had it, how could he persuade Miss like this?

Li Ye didn't understand any big truths, and at the same time, his purpose was very simple, he listened to the old man's words and protected the safety of the eldest lady.

Therefore, he didn't understand anything, so he could only stay quietly by Lu Jiajia's side and accompany her with a wordless companionship.

If it's that Miss Mu, at least you can talk to the young lady.

Although he guessed wrong, Mu Han and Lu Jiajia actually didn't have anything to say, but his actions still received good feedback. At least Lu Jiajia didn't feel that kind of ice cellar-like experience all the time, and accompanied by Li Ye, as if her mother had never returned, she continued to refine her boring qi.

After that day, she did go to see her mother again, but as she had done the first time, she said no more after saying hello.

Lu Mansion is still the pavilion, Lu Jiajia is sitting there, but she is no longer holding hot tea in her hands.

"Now that my aunt is home, my father is not as strict as he used to look at me. Lu Jiaying held the hot tea and took a sip, "It's much easier to see you now than before." But this autumn is gradually gone, winter is coming, although it is not snowing much here in Pingyang City, but it is still a little cold, little sister, you really don't drink this hot tea?"

"Don't drink it. Lu Jiajia shook her head and said, "I thought that my mother had figured it out when she came back, and I missed my father, but now it seems that this may not be the case." ”

"Oh?" Lu Jiaying put down the teacup in his hand, "What does that little sister think?" ”

Lu Jiajia stared at him, and then asked, "I don't know what you think, second brother?"

"Second brother, I don't have any ideas. Lu Jiaying smiled, "I just feel that these days are a little too calm." ”

"Isn't it good to be calm?" Lu Jiajia asked, although her heart was cold, she still didn't want her mother to come back, but she deliberately came to her father to report the grudge more than ten years ago.

"It's good to be calm, but it's not good to be too calm. Lu Jiaying shook his head and said, "Now, I'm afraid the affairs of the Lu family have nothing to do with you and me, this muddy water is gradually becoming clearer, I think about how wrong it was for us to complain about the eldest brother before." ”

"Second brother, what do you mean by this?" Lu Jiajia asked with a frown.

"I never thought my aunt would come back. Lu Jiaying sighed and continued, "But she's back...... Little sister, don't get me wrong, I don't welcome my aunt in that sense, it's just that she came back at this time. ”

"What's going on here?"

"Now...... I'm afraid my father's ambition is about to be exposed. Lu Jiaying said solemnly, "I never thought that my father's ambition was so big, not to mention that the eldest brother is gone, I am afraid that the eldest brother will not leave, and my father's position as the head of the family is also inevitable." ”

"Third Uncle ......" Lu Jiajia hesitated, not that she believed in Lu Qiuye, but that she didn't want to think about her mother like that, even if her mother was so cold.

"Actually, I shouldn't have told you this. Lu Jiaying smiled bitterly, "No matter how crazy he is, it's my father after all." ”

"You should have told me. Lu Jiajia retorted, "Because it's not just your father who is crazy, but also my mother." ”

"Little sister should not make presumptuous assertions. Lu Jiaying said, "Auntie is not sure what she is coming back for." ”

"Second brother, in fact, you are good at anything, but this is not good. ”

"How?"

"It's too fake to be a person, sometimes I suspect that you are the second uncle's child. ”

"Huh. Lu Jiaying shook his head and chuckled, "Actually, I'm okay with others, but I have to be like this to you." ”

"Why?"

"Because you're my sister. ”

That was many years ago, when Lu Jiaying was only four years old, and Lu Jiajia had only turned one year old.

Lu Jiaying, who often played in front of the backyard, suddenly realized that the person who used to sit there and look up at the sky, the person he should call his aunt, seemed to be missing.

"Brother, when was she gone?"

"Who?" is also not big, looking at Lu Jiarin, who is only ten years old at most, looks very stable, and her childish little face doesn't seem to be very naΓ―ve.

"Auntie. ”

Lu Jiaying's answer was very broad, but Lu Jialin naturally knew who he was talking about, not his mother, but the woman whose body had been locked up for half a year, but her heart was locked forever.

"She's long gone. Lu Jiarin said lightly, "Why are you asking this?"

"I just don't feel like it's empty. Lu Jiaying replied, "By the way, brother, is the little sister the daughter of that aunt?" ”

Lu Jialin nodded.

"Ah...... Does my daughter look like her mother?"

"Possibly. ”

"But I don't want my little sister to look like her mother. Lu Jiaying said depressedly.

"Why?"

Lu Jiarin looked at him very calmly, not knowing why he had such thoughts.

"That aunt is really good-looking, but there is always an uncomfortable feeling, I just want to laugh when I see my little sister, I don't want to cry. ”

"Huh. Lu Jiarin smiled rarely, "Then you have to work hard, you must not let the little sister look like an aunt." ”

"Huh?"

"Take good care of her and let her, so that she will not become a person like her aunt. ”

"But my father didn't let me get close to my little sister, and every time I wanted to go to see my little sister, I would be scolded by him. Lu Jiaying said aggrievedly.

Lu Jialin frowned, and then chuckled again.

"Then you're lying to them. ”

"Hu......h?

"Jia Ying, the silent responsibility is not necessarily worse than those superficial kung fu, you are a man. ”

That was the only time in Lu Jiaying's memory that Lu Jialin said so many words to him at one time, although the eldest brother on weekdays is also very close, he has always been silent.

It's just that when he was a child, he didn't understand his eldest brother's words very well, and it wasn't until his father's ambition was revealed, and he was also a lot more sensible before he understood what his eldest brother meant.

Since he can't stop his father, and he will stop himself, he can only be so cold, show them, and see how rare the contacts of his life are.

"Big brother, why do you want to teach me to deceive?"

"I'm not teaching you to lie. Lu Jialin knocked him on the head, "I'm teaching you how to be a brother." ”

"Then will you lie to me?"

"Yes, because you're my brother. ”
