Reborn in 85: Starting with a family split and becoming the richest man, the ungrateful wretch regre

A look of madness flashed in Lu Jianjun's eyes: "Of course I won't go by myself, I'll go with my in-laws!"

Grandma Lu was bewildered: "What in-laws?"

Lu Jianjun said with a serious expression, "It's the Xu family!"

Grandma Lu slapped her thigh: "That's right! If Lu Yue marries into that family, we'll be in-laws. Besides that cripple, they have three boys!"

"I must cripple Tian Guofu and Tian Guoqiang!" Lu Jianjun gritted his teeth, his eyes flashing with ferocity.

Grandma Lu didn't say anything, but she was thinking to herself, even if Lu Jianjun managed to get the money back, would he return her money for her funeral?

She knew very well that she, as Lu Jianjun's biological mother, was definitely not as important as Lu Yao in Lu Jianjun's heart.

After figuring things out, Lu Jianjun ignored the mess in the house and went back to his room to sleep.

Grandma Lu sat on the ground, looking at this place that didn't feel like home, and couldn't help but cry silently.

The next morning, the four of them went to the county and first took Lu Yue and Lu Xing to the Third Middle School to register.

After settling them in, Lu's mother and Lu Yang went to set up their stall.

When they returned to Old Yu's house, Old Mrs. Lu was standing at the door, staring at them fiercely.

In less than a week, Grandma Lu had lost at least ten kilograms, becoming skin and bones, with messy hair and clothes covered in stains, looking extremely disheveled.

Lu's mother immediately tensed up, her expression becoming somewhat unnatural.

Grandma Lu had been standing at the door in the wind for over an hour and was getting impatient.

Upon seeing them, he immediately shouted, "Where have you all been? What's in this car?"

Lu's mother said meekly, "We've gone to the county."

Lu Yang said coldly, "What are you doing here?"

"So you're saying I can't come?"

Old Mrs. Lu blurted out, she was already used to bossing Lu's mother and the others around.

But she regretted it as soon as she said it.

Lu Yang chuckled, took out his key, opened the door, and said, "Come in and let's talk."

Grandma Lu looked at Lu Yang cautiously; all three of them, including Lu's mother, listened to Lu Yang.

She would only allow the four of them to return to the Lu family if she could persuade Lu Yang to go back.

Once inside the courtyard, Lu Yang gestured for Old Madam Lu to sit on the wall and casually asked, "What do you need?"

Grandma Lu suppressed her anger and said, "It was wrong of Lu Yao to take your place in college, but so much time has passed. You should have calmed down by now. Move back home."

She felt she had been humble enough, and Lu Yang should give her face and not make a scene anymore.

Lu Yang glanced at her expressionlessly and asked in an icy tone, "If the lives of the three of us siblings could ensure you a peaceful old age, what would you choose?"

Grandma Lu slapped her thigh and angrily said, "What did you say?"

"You are all my own grandchildren, why would I want to kill you?"

Lu Yang stared at her and said, word by word, "Isn't your family from Dafeng Village?"

"Do you dare say that it wasn't your suggestion that Yue'er marry into the Xu family?"

Grandma Lu immediately fell silent. She opened her mouth, wanting to argue in her own words, "The Xu family is much better off than ours..."

Lu Yang stared at her, and even the old lady Lu couldn't continue speaking.

Lu Yang said quietly, "No one is here to order you around, to exploit you, or to beat and scold you."

"I'm quite surprised that you've only come to bother us after enduring this for so long."

Old Mrs. Lu's expression contorted for a moment, then she gritted her teeth and said, "Lu Yang, how dare you abandon me! Aren't you afraid people will call you unfilial? I'll make sure you can't live in the surrounding villages!"

Lu Yang thought he'd heard a joke: "If anyone's going to laugh at someone, laugh at Lu Jianjun, not me!"

Grandma Lu's breath hitched, and her tone softened considerably: "How can you possibly get back?"

"If you're not going back, then I'm not leaving!"

Lu Yang scoffed, "This house belongs to the Yu family. If you want to live here, we can't make that decision."

"If you insist on doing it this way, we'll have to find another place to rent."

Grandma Lu gritted her teeth, her eyes red with anger: "Do you have to be so ruthless?"

Lu Yang said bluntly, "I learned it from you. You never leave us any way out for your own benefit."

"Yangzi, dinner's ready."

Lu Yang pushed open the door and shouted loudly.

Lu Yang didn't say a word, turned around and walked towards the house, leaving Old Mrs. Lu standing in the yard.

Grandma Lu sat in the courtyard and wailed loudly, her heart bleeding with hatred.

Since Lu Yang is so heartless, she won't tell him that Lu Jianjun has already started discussing marriage with the Xu family.

Isn't Lu Yang worried about Lu Yue, that good-for-nothing? She'll just watch coldly as the four of them get caught off guard.

However, she had only been crying for less than three minutes when a gaunt figure suddenly rushed into the yard.

"Give me back my money! Give me back my money!"

Li Xiulian, her hair disheveled, grabbed Old Madam Lu by the neck and let out a shrill scream.

Grandma Lu was no pushover either. Forgetting about crying, she immediately grabbed Li Xiulian by the neck, and the two began to wrestle.

Standing at the window, Lu's mother glanced outside and said with considerable doubt, "It's been so long, and Li Xiulian still wants to extort money from your grandmother."

"You don't know that Lu Jianjun imitated Li Xiulian, sneaking into Li Xiulian's house in the middle of the night and stealing her money."

Lu Yang smiled and stuffed a piece of meat into his mouth.

Lu's mother was shocked on the spot: "Your father went to the widow's house to steal money in the middle of the night?"

She shook her head, as if she were getting to know Lu Jianjun all over again.

Neither of them intended to intervene to break up the fight; in the end, both Old Mrs. Lu and Li Xiulian were pulled away by Lu Jianzhong.

After dinner, Lu's mother went to the backyard to wash clothes, while Lu Yang watered the mushrooms and bean sprouts, as if the old lady had never been there.

The next day, Lu's mother and Lu Yang went to set up their stall to do business again. After they finished, they went to the hospital to visit Yu Guangxue.

Lu Yang specially bought brown sugar and malted milk powder, and Uncle Yu couldn't refuse, so he accepted them.

Yu Guangxue only nodded to them when they entered, and then her eyes were empty, like a mannequin.

Aunt Yu seemed to be holding back her emotions, so she pulled Lu's mother outside and chatted for a long time.

When they returned, their eyes were a little red.

The four of them went outside and talked by the window.

"Uncle, what do you plan to do with the Tang family?"

Lu Yang couldn't help but ask, because his family had suffered so much in their previous life, and they had taken care of Lu Yang and his family, so Lu Yang wanted to help them.

Old Yu gets furious whenever this is mentioned, and Aunt Yu keeps wiping away tears.

After a long pause, Aunt Yu took a deep breath and said, "Her in-laws said they would only agree to a divorce if she handed over all those photos."

"Moreover, the house they live in belongs to her mother-in-law and is not considered marital property. Her bastard husband has been paying rent to his mother over the years, so they have no joint property at all."

“Xiaoxue spent five years with him and even had a child with him, but now she can’t get a single penny. Her life is ruined.”

Old Yu's face was ashen. He sat silently to the side, as if he were in a trance.

Upon hearing this, Lu's mother couldn't help but feel a pang of anger in her chest: "This is too much!"
