331 Why doesnât the older sister always protect the younger brother?
âWhy did her uncle, miss Zhouâs second child, take her life? Difficult labor or two lives?â Cai Xiaolian asked again.
It was impossible for two lives to be lost. Otherwise, where did Lu Zheng, who they saw every day in the village, come from?
âI also heard mother and father mention it after Zhou Furenâs death. Donât ask! Father and mother hate it when people eavesdrop!â Uncle Gu said in a mysterious tone.
Cai Xiaolian and Gu Nian nodded.
Gu Xin, who loved to eavesdrop, nodded her head guiltily.
I heard that when sister Jia was pregnant with her second child, she found out that general Lu was communicating with his childhood friend. His childhood friend even came to her house to make her angry. Sister Jia was hot-tempered and turned against her on the spot. She splashed a pot of hot water on his face.
âThat childhood sweetheartâs family is on par with the Lu family. The old lady of the Lu family didnât want to fall out with that family because of this, so she punished sister Xiaojia to kneel in the ancestral hall. After general Lu returned, he didnât even bother to visit sister Xiao Jia, who was carrying his child. That night, sister Xiaojia went into premature labor. She died when the child was four months old. According to mother, she and Mrs. Zhou went to investigate. It was the childhood sweetheart who deliberately came to sister Xiao Jiaâs house to anger her to death.â
âMy mother and Mrs. Zhou went to the capital and beat general Lu half to death. They wanted to take away sister Xiaojiaâs son and daughter. However, the Lu family was the high Dukeâs public house. The two of them could only beat the person up. It was impossible to take her away openly, not even if they wanted to steal her child. After returning, Zhou Furen also died of depression. That year, my mother was also very unhappy. She had to rest for a few months. Father took her to the county and played for three days before her mood became better.ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âAI! Poor sister Xiao Jia, poor sister Xiao Jiaâs children!â
âHowever, I heard that sister Xiao Jiaâs daughter is quite capable. She protected her younger brother very well under the hands of her stepmother. However, after sister Xiao Jiaâs daughter got married, no one knew what kind of life her youngest son had with his stepmother. These years, after Zhou Furenâs death, father and mother did not have any contact with old master Zhou.â
Uncle Gu sighed.
if you can protect your little brother, why donât you always protect him? â Cai Xiaolian asked.
Gu Nian knew that Lu Zhengâs sister, Lu Xue, was the first grandchild of the Lu family. She was very intelligent and was well-liked by her grandfather.
Unfortunately, Lu Xueâs grandfather passed away when she was 14 years old, and the siblings lost their protection.
Lu Zhengâs father married his childhood sweetheart the year his mother died and had a son the next year.
In Lu Zhengâs Fatherâs heart, there was no Lu Zheng at all. He didnât care about him at all. In addition, he was born prematurely and was weak. If Lu Xue was not his first child, the treatment of the siblings would be worse.
Later on, Lu Zhengâs stepmother, Madam Lin, arranged a marriage for Lu Xue to be a hedonistic son of a rich family. He was the kind of hedonistic son who had tainted all the maids in the backyard and even played with people to death.
Lu Xue cried and refused to marry, threatening to kill herself. Her behavior reminded father Lu of the siblings âmother. He was furious and immediately ordered, â even if you die, you should die in your husbandâs house!
Then, he ordered his men to kidnap Lu Xue and make her wait at home for her marriage.
Lu Xue was disheartened and wanted to die with her brother to find their mother.
At this moment, it was Lu Zheng who persuaded his sister.
Lu Zheng said, â sister, donât you want to avenge your mother? â
