Chapter 46: Chapter 46: Let’s Split Up
Chapter 46 -46: Let’s Split Up
“They’re afraid I’ll ruin their plans!” Lu Youxue pointed accusingly at Ge Guifen and Lu Youzhen, with thick hatred emanating from his still childish face, making it especially prominent and shocking.
Recognized as the culprit by Lu Youxue, even Ge Guifen panicked, clinging to Lu Youzhen’s hand, frantically lost for excuses.
At this moment, Liu Yushu truly detested this entire family; she released Lu Youxue, and lunged at Ge Guifen, “Beasts! All of you, a family of beasts!”
Ge Guifen hurriedly dragged Lu Youzhen toward the yard’s exit, both flustered and disheveled.
Lu Youxi intercepted Liu Yushu and also escorted Lu Youxue out of the courtyard.
“Weren’t you saying Youxue went out to play? Such a big child was locked in a room, and you told me he was out playing?” Lu Youxi couldn’t even bother to say more to the Lu Family’s elders.
She merely exposed the bruises on Lu Youxue’s arms and legs for Lu Zhenguo to see.
Although Lu Zhenguo and the village chief had already seen them inside the house previously.
“Dad, how long will you keep deferring to them?” Lu Youxi confronted Lu Zhenguo, “Uncle was about to hit Mom in front of you, they wanted to marry me off to Foolish Hu, they even tied up Youxue. Grandma and Grandpa knew well Youxue was tied up in the room, but said nothing. Aren’t these enough for you to consider our situation?”
“Indeed, this is too much!”
“There’s nothing like this.”
“The Lu Family is too absurd.”
“People say the Lu Family’s elders favor boys over girls, but they don’t even treat Lu Youxue that well.”
“I see, although they indeed favor boys over girls, in reality, they only care about Lu Zhenjia and Lu Youbang. As for Lu Zhenguo, no matter how many sons he has, it’s useless.”
“Yes, the Lu Family’s elders would sacrifice even little child Lu Youxue for the sake of Lu Youbang, showing that all their care is truly only for Lu Zhenjia and Lu Youbang, and no one else matters to them in their eyes.”
“As an outsider, I feel for Lu Zhenguo. Usually, it’s him and his wife who take care of the Lu Family’s elders, yet whenever there’s a good opportunity, it never comes to Lu Zhenguo’s family first, always to Lu Zhenjia and Lu Youbang. When sacrifices are needed, they remember Lu Zhenguo’s family.”
“Lu Zhenguo is truly filial, enduring so many wrongs, yet he still treats them like his own family, wholeheartedly and devotedly.”
“Is this really something to be proud of? Lucky that my own husband isn’t like that.”
“Yes, he might have a reputation for being filial, but it’s his wife and children who suffer, that’s no good at all!”
“He’s got the good reputation, but it’s his wife and kids who are miserable; people like that, whoever associates with him is unlucky!”
Lu Zhenguo, originally shocked by the wounds on Lu Youxue’s arms and legs and unable to speak, now heard these condemning words incessantly drifting from outside the yard.
Lu Zhenguo’s face turned red and then pale.
He felt the world spinning around him, overwhelmed with self-reproach.
Lu Zhenguo couldn’t help but reflect, what had he done over the years?
Just by closing his eyes and ears, he had pretended those injustices didn’t exist.
Yet he let his wife and children bear so much.
Indeed, the words from those outsiders might not be pleasant to hear, but what they said was indeed true.
He had been too selfish all along, in the name of filial piety, but had caused his wife and children so much suffering.
The Lu Family’s elders were his relatives, but so were his wife and children!
He had looked after his parents for so many years, and since they still preferred Lu Zhenjia, then they should live with Lu Zhenjia.
This didn’t mean he was unfilial, right?
Whatever was due to them, he would still deliver.
They all lived in the same village; visiting his parents would still be convenient.
Most importantly, he could no longer let his wife and children suffer every day like this.
“Let’s split the family.” Lu Zhenguo clenched his fists, his shoulders slumped slightly, his voice still clear amidst the chaos of the courtyard.
“Good! You’ve finally come to your senses!” To everyone’s surprise, the person who spoke was Old Madam Lu.
Old Madam Lu looked smug, her voice becoming even sharper and filled with a confident edge, “Your wife and daughter are nothing but burdens who only create debts. Which family’s woman doesn’t do housework at home? A little work and look how aggrieved they are! Especially that eldest girl, your wife has been led astray by her. Every day, she listens to that girl badmouth us, brainwashed into thinking we don’t treat her well!”
“You split with them, and without that troublemaker eldest girl, we can live our lives well again.” Old Madam Lu’s face was filled with relief and pride, thinking how wonderful life would be without Lu Youxi.
Lu Youxi was born to settle debts; from the moment Lu Youxi was born, she disliked this granddaughter.
Initially, she even thought of using Lu Youxi to earn a substantial dowry.
After all, Lu Youxi had not been cheap to raise all these years.
Their family had not treated Lu Youxi harshly.
They provided Lu Youxi with food and clothes and also supported her schooling.
Now that Lu Youxi had grown up, it wouldn’t be unreasonable to collect some dowry money, right?
Who could have known that Lu Youxi would secretly register marriage with this mysterious Xu Mai?
She simply wouldn’t let her family benefit at all from her.
Old Madam Lu realized that their family would never see any benefit from Lu Youxi in this lifetime.

If it was impossible to gain anything more from Lu Youxi, then it was better to just drive her out.
That would save the money spent on raising Lu Youxi.
Old Madam Lu plotted triumphantly, snorting, “Didn’t the eldest girl say it? She will have Xu Mai earn her university tuition fee; our family doesn’t need to worry about it. She looks down on us anyway. It’s just right to split the family. From now on, she’ll have nothing to do with our family.”
“She can attend university, whatever the cost, she’ll figure out a way!” Old Madam Lu coldly curled her lips, with somewhat malicious anticipation, as if waiting to see Lu Youxi’s misfortune unfold, “I have to see what good end will come from Lu Youxi following this Xu Mai!”
Lu Youbang studies at Jing University, costing a lot of money!
Lu Youxi really has no sense of reality, thinking Xu Mai is so reliable?
They registered marriage after knowing each other for such a short time?
Such a relationship could never be stable.
In the big city with its seductive, dazzling world, would Xu Mai still be willing to work hard to support Lu Youxi and earn her tuition fees?
Eventually, Lu Youxi would have nothing!
Then Lu Youxi will realize just how much the Lu Family has done for her to the best of their abilities!
The village chief subconsciously felt that Old Madam Lu might have misunderstood Lu Zhenguo’s intention.
But then again, the way the Lu Family thinks is not something ordinary people can understand.
Which normal family would not nourish a girl as outstanding as Lu Youxi, instead, thinking of marrying her off to a fool for money?
So the village chief thought it best to wait and see what Lu Zhenguo meant.
Upon which, a look of surprise crossed Lu Zhenguo’s face.
