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

Lu Yang laughed a few times: "Aren't there still Lu Qing and Lu Yao?"

“My dad treated them much better than he treated us three siblings. They were like family to him, even though they weren’t his biological children. Shouldn’t they be dutiful to them?”

“From now on, all the family property will belong to the brother and sister, and they should support my father and grandmother. Why should they get all the benefits while we have to do all the dirty and hard work?”

Lu Jianzhong realized that Lu Yang hadn't just moved out because of the college entrance exam; he had simply given up on Lu Jianjun and his grandmother.

He sighed and said, "He's still your father. Without him, you wouldn't exist. Blood relatives shouldn't have to fight like this."

"If you really don't want to go back, that's fine, but you can't lay a hand on your dad or grandma anymore. Hitting your father and cursing your mother is the act of an animal!"

Lu Yang nodded and said, "Please tell the villagers that if anyone wants to learn how to grow mushrooms or sprout beans, they can contact me. It's quite simple."

Lu Jianzhong stubbed out his pipe, stood up, and walked away with his hands behind his back.

After he left, Lu Xing and Lu Yue ran out from the corner.

Lu Xing patted his chest: "I thought the old man would force us to go back."

Lu Yang shook his head: "The old man isn't family. He can only try to persuade us. If he can't persuade us, then so be it. Forcing us to go back won't do him any good."

After Lu's mother brought back some firewood, the group worked together to prepare dinner.

Late at night, Guan Xiuqin met Lu Jianjun at the warehouse entrance. She complained, "When are you going to bring Tian Zhaodi back? Your mother is about to beat me to death!"

As she spoke, tears streamed down her face. Lu Jianjun felt heartbroken when he saw her crying.

He quickly coaxed, "That little bastard Lu Yang is like a different person. Not only did he discover that Xiao Yao took his place in university, but he also guessed... about us."

Guan Xiuqin was so frightened that she almost couldn't hold back her tears. If this shameful thing got out, she would be drowned in gossip.

With tears welling up in her eyes, she asked, "What should we do? Please think of something!"

Lu Jianjun said softly, "As long as we stubbornly deny it, he can't do anything about it."

"I'm going to Tianjia Village tomorrow. Tian Zhaodi's two younger brothers will need me to buy more fertilizer from the supply and marketing cooperative!"

Guan Xiuqin burst into laughter through her tears, gently punched Lu Jianjun's chest with her fist, and then quickly rubbed it for him: "Did it hurt?"

"It hurts so much, you have to make it up to me."

Lu Jianjun grabbed Guan Xiuqin's hand and pulled her eagerly into the small storage room.

After the warehouse door closed, Lu Yao walked out from the corner. He already knew that he was Lu Jianjun's son.

But he never treated Lu Jianjun as his father, because he could only ever call Lu Jianjun "Grandpa"!

Lu Yao took a deep breath, his heart filled with endless resentment.

That bastard Lu Yang deserves to be his slave. Why should he break free from his control?

Lu Jianjun is a fool. Lu Yang knows so many deadly things, yet he only thinks about forcing Tian Zhaodi back and doesn't intend to deal with Lu Yang!

Lu Yao smiled sarcastically, immediately went to the kitchen to get a large bucket of soybean oil, and left under the cover of night.

On a dark and windy night, Lu Yao patiently hid in a corner and waited for half an hour after the oil lamp in the gatehouse went out before quietly approaching the gatehouse.

He walked very carefully, afraid of making a sound and disturbing the people inside.

But it was too dark around him, and he stepped on a mousetrap in the grass next to the gatehouse.

what--

Lu Yao cried out in pain, and Lu Yang immediately got up upon hearing the sound and quickly walked towards the door.

He pushed open the door and saw Lu Yaozhen sitting on the floor, twisting his face as he tried to break the mousetrap on his foot.

Lu Yang walked to his side, looking down at him, and said, "I'm covered in sweat."

After Lu Yao pried the mousetrap off his foot and threw it aside, he was already trembling with pain.

Lu Yang glanced at the bucket of soybean oil beside him, a murderous glint flashing in his eyes.

That bastard wants to burn them alive!

He said coldly, "You're the arsonist!"

Lu Yao, of course, couldn't admit it. He gasped and said, "Can't I just be passing by? Are you out of your mind to put a mousetrap on the ground?!"

Lu Yang said with a half-smile, "How else can we catch you, this big rat, if we don't set a mousetrap?"

"I knew you were coming back, so I prepared this especially for you."

As he spoke, he picked up the bucket of soybean oil and shouted, "Get out! If you come any closer, I'll break your legs!"

He carried the soybean oil, walked quickly into the gatehouse, and locked the door.

Lu Yao was furious, but his foot was in so much pain that he was afraid it would be broken. He had no choice but to hurry to the village doctor to treat his injury without delay.

Lu Yang put the soybean oil on the ground, turned around and found that his mother had also gotten up.

"Who was that just now? I think I heard someone call out."

Mother Lu glanced at the soybean oil and asked curiously.

Lu Yang took off his shoes, lay down on the kang (a heated brick bed), and calmly said, "The old man brought them. There are too many people during the day, so he brought them at night. Go to sleep."

Lu's mother nodded, turned over, and went back to sleep.

Lu Yang stared at the dark moonlight outside the window, his gaze growing colder and colder.

He actually wanted to stay independent, but now it seems impossible. The Lu family will keep causing trouble, so they need to find a more secure place to live.

He barely slept all night. After dawn, Lu Yang said calmly, "I'll go to Uncle Yu's house and see if they'd be willing to rent a room from us."

He underestimated Lu Yao's ruthlessness and audacity; it seems the plan needs to be brought forward.

Around 5 a.m., Lu Yang led his mother and Lu Yue to Uncle Yu's house.

He knocked on the door, and soon Uncle Yu opened it, peeked in, and asked, "Why are you all so dirty?"

Lu Yang politely asked, "We don't have anywhere to stay for the time being, could we rent your house?"

Uncle Yu only has one daughter who married into the county. The old couple lives in four houses and are both kind-hearted people, which is why Lu Yang chose this house first.

"We're all from the same village, no need to pay, feel free to stay!"

Uncle Yu opened the door and invited them in, scolding them, "Why did you have to stay in the gatehouse? That's very unlucky."

After they finished cleaning the house and had dinner at Lao Yu's house, Lu Yang was about to go buy some daily necessities when two more uninvited guests arrived at Lao Yu's house.

As soon as Tian Guoqiang entered the courtyard, he shouted in a shrill voice, "Big sister, you're such a drama queen! Hurry up and pack your things and go home, stop throwing a tantrum!"

Lu's mother looked distressed, clutching the hem of her clothes, standing there helplessly like a student being scolded by a teacher.

Tian Guofu went straight up and grabbed Lu's mother's arm, pulling her toward the door. Lu's mother staggered as she was pulled.

Tian Guoqiang yelled at Lu Yue, "What are you standing there for? Hurry up and pack your things!"

Lu Yang shouted coldly, "We've separated. I'll never live with Lu Jianjun again. Forget about it!"

Tian Guoqiang rolled up his sleeves and shouted, "You brat, how dare you! Your mother has always been a coward; it must have been you who instigated her to separate from the family!"

"A wicked creature like you will be talked about behind your back if you go out. You have no morals whatsoever!"

Lu Yang walked silently to Tian Guofu's side, pushed him aside, and said to his mother, who was crying and wailing, "Go inside and continue tidying up."

Mother Lu covered her face and hurriedly walked into the house.
