My reborn husband and son are thinking about how to kill me every day.
Chapter 193 Rejection
After Wei Yuqi was arrested and imprisoned, Li Mingrui specially sent someone to deliver the message back to the Lu family.
It is said that Prince Rui already knew about this matter and had imprisoned Wei Yuqi, severely punishing him.
They are safe from now on, so there's no need to worry anymore.
Upon hearing the news, the Lu family breathed a sigh of relief and gradually returned to their normal lives.
The Lu brothers, Xu Mu and Xu Mu, resumed their business at the braised food shop in the city.
However, the Lu family were farmers, and Lu Xumu always felt that food was the most important thing.
He couldn't bear to leave the land allocated to his family lying fallow, so he planned to buy a few more strong men to help with farming and protect his family.
Upon hearing that they were going to buy more people, Lu Yanqi immediately said that he wanted to go too.
"What are you going to do?" Although Wei Yuqi had already been arrested and thrown into jail, Gu Chun still felt lingering fear when she thought about it. She didn't want to take her grandchildren out on any more adventures.
Lu Yanqi said, "I'll go buy myself a tutor to take home while I'm at it."
Gu Chunzhi said, "Let your third uncle pick one for you. He also learned to read and write with your father for a few years, so don't worry, he'll know how to choose."
Lu Yanqi wasn't worried about his third uncle choosing a bad tutor; his main concern was that someone might take the opportunity to plant someone in their family.
It seems that woman has offended quite a few people outside, and their enemies may not be just Wei Yuqi.
But he couldn't say these things to his family. Just as he was struggling with how to go out with his third uncle, a voice came from outside the courtyard asking a question.
"Excuse me, is this General Ji's home?"
Hearing the noise outside, the Lu family members were all puzzled.
Gu Chunzhi asked blankly, "What is Commander Ji?"
"They've probably come to the wrong place. I'll go and send them away." Lu Xumu got up and walked out of the courtyard.
Lu Yanqi frowned slightly.
What was the woman's last name?
He felt that the soldiers who came to deliver the rewards had a very obvious obsequious attitude towards them. Could it be because of that woman?
She really went to the army? And in such a short time, she became a brigade commander?
Just as Lu Yanqi was lost in thought, Lu Xumu opened the courtyard gate. He looked at Wei Zhenfang and said, "We don't have General Ji here. You've come to the wrong place."
Wei Zhenfang sized him up, then looked at Lu Yanqi behind him and said, "This must be Young Master Lu, right? I am Wei Zhenfang, Wei Yuqi's father. I am here today to apologize on behalf of my unfilial son."
Upon hearing that he was Wei Yuqi's father, Lu Xumu and Gu Chunzhi glared angrily and said, "How dare you come here? Your son almost killed us. How did you raise him?"
"Get out of here. Our family will not accept your apology."
Hearing the two men's rude words, Wei Zhenfang's guards were also enraged. Several of them rushed forward to argue with the two men, but Wei Zhenfang stopped them.
At this moment, Wei Zhenfang not only showed no airs of a general, but also placed himself in a very humble position.
He said, "I have been in the army for many years and have not been able to manage things at home, so he has been spoiled by his mother."
I only found out this time that he was not only lazy and incompetent, but also plotted to drive away his own brother. We have to thank General Ji for this; if General Ji hadn't taken my child in, who knows what would have happened to him.”
Gu Chunzhi was initially angry and wanted to chase the man away with a broom, but firstly, Wei Zhenfang's attitude was very good, and secondly, he kept mentioning General Ji, which aroused the curiosity of both Gu Chunzhi and Lu Xumu.
Although Wei Zhenfang was a military officer, he was also very good at reading people's expressions. He naturally noticed the hesitation of the two men for a moment and said, "May I go in and talk?"
Gu Chunzhi glanced at the villagers peeking out from outside and said, "Come in!"
Wei Zhenfang hurriedly ordered his men to drive the carriage into the courtyard, but Gu Chunzhi and Lu Xumu stopped him, saying, "If you have something to say, just come in and say it. There's no need for the gifts."
Wei Zhenfang was surprised. In his view, although the Lu family had produced a golden phoenix, they were still just a farming family with no real foundation.
In his eyes, Gu Chunzhi was just a rural farmer.
He really didn't expect that they would be unmoved by the sight of several carriages full of things and would refuse to let them in.
He couldn't help but re-examine the Lu family.
Perhaps the Lu family is more than just an ordinary farming family.
"Grandma, please give me this chance!" He bowed to Gu Chunzhi and said, "These gifts are not only to apologize to that unfilial son, but also to thank your family for taking care of Shen'er."
As a father, I failed in my responsibilities. It was Commander Ji who took him in and carefully nurtured him. Commander Ji is the benefactor of our Wei family.”
At this point, without needing to ask any further, Gu Chunzhi and the others had already guessed that the General Ji he mentioned was probably Ji Yunshuang.
The group was puzzled as to how she had suddenly become a military commander. But Gu Chunzhi knew that it was not appropriate to ask the man in front of her such a question.
She hesitated for a moment, then suppressed her doubts and said, "The mistakes he made against our family cannot be forgiven by simply giving him some gifts."
"We just want to see him receive the punishment he deserves. As for your words of thanks to my daughter-in-law, you should give the gifts to her; I have no right to accept them on her behalf. Please leave!"
After Gu Chunzhi finished speaking, she told her son to quickly close the courtyard gate.
She was afraid that if she watched any longer she would regret it, so she rushed back into the house after giving the instructions.
Back inside, the images of those several large carriages still lingered in her mind. She clutched her chest in anguish; how much money must those carriages have been worth!
"Grandmother, what's wrong?" Lu Yuzhu asked with concern, looking at her. "Is your chest uncomfortable?"
Gu Chunzhi pounded her chest and said, "Grandmother is heartbroken!"
"Are you sick?" Lu Yuzhu reached out and touched her chest, saying, "Then Zhuzhu will rub it for you, and it won't hurt anymore."
Looking at her granddaughter, Gu Chunzhi said with relief, "My Zhuzhu is so good! But, Grandma is either sick or she has refused a lot of good things, which makes her feel bad."
She never dreamed that one day in her life, Gu Chunzhi would be willing to give away so many good things.
Although she also wanted those things, she couldn't cause trouble for her daughter-in-law.
That beastly father of the Wei family was clearly after Shuangniang.
Lu Yuzhu said in a childish voice, "Grandma doesn't care. If Grandma wants anything, Zhuzhu will buy it for you in the future."
Looking at her granddaughter, Gu Chunzhi felt much better. She said, "Okay, my good granddaughter, Grandma will wait for you to take care of me in the future."
Outside, Wei Zhenfang and the several carts of goods he brought were locked outside the courtyard.
Seeing their general get the short end of the stick, Wei Zhenfang's guards complained, "These Lu family members really don't know what's good for them!"
"Shut up!" Wei Zhenfang said coldly, "What did I tell you before I came? Have you all forgotten?"
