After the female supporting character in the quick transmigration series realized her mistakes
Chapter 409 The Husband Who Hidden His Shameful Past 19
Little did they know that Lu Weifeng, who had just entered the house, was standing behind the door and had heard Jiang Xiaofen's mother's words clearly.
Lu Weifeng's face was extremely gloomy, as if it could drip water.
He recalled those unbearable past experiences of being schemed against, and a surge of hatred welled up in his heart, making him grit his teeth in hatred.
Who could have predicted that the Jiang family would be so greedy, actually attempting to repeat their old tricks and try again!
Hmph... However, this time, Lu Weifeng decided that he must make good use of this opportunity to make Jiang Xiaofen pay the price for her choice.
The next day, before dawn, Lu Weifeng hurriedly went to his second uncle's house.
Today is the day my cousin goes up the mountain; it's an important moment.
When Lu Weifeng arrived at his second uncle's house, he could hear his second aunt's pitiful cries from afar.
The cries grew louder and louder, one after another, "My son, my son, my son," so plaintive and heartbreaking that it brought tears to the eyes of anyone who heard it.
A group of people standing at the gate, waiting to carry the coffin out, couldn't help but turn their heads away when they heard the crying. Some of them had tears in their eyes, and some even shed tears.
My second aunt's two daughters were also crying loudly nearby, their cries intertwining with my second aunt's, creating a heartbreaking lament.
Finally, it was the village elders who intervened and persuaded them to step aside.
After the brothers and villagers carried the coffin out of the yard together, the firecrackers behind them started popping and crackling.
The Lu family has five brothers, and although all five are married, Lu Weiqing is the only son among the younger generation.
Lu Weijiang and Lu Weigao's son is still young, and the others either don't have sons or are not married, so they naturally can't attend this kind of event.
As for Lu Qi, his father specially invited him here, and he said very nice things, saying that Lu Qi was born in the Lu family and also had the Lu family surname.
Since Lu Weisheng, as his elder, had passed away, he naturally had to act as a filial son.
This also happened in his previous life. Lu Weifeng saw it and strongly opposed it. He did not want to acknowledge that Lu Qi was a child of the Lu family.
But everyone advised Lu Weifeng that even if Lu Qi wasn't a child of the Lu family, he still grew up eating the Lu family's food, so it was okay for him to be a filial son now.
Lu Weifeng had no choice but to acquiesce.
In her previous life, Lu Qi and the other adults went up the mountain in the dark and accidentally fell from the top of the mountain. Fortunately, Lu Weifeng was quick-witted and rescued her in time.
That's why Lu Qi broke a leg; otherwise, if he had really rolled down the slope, he would have been half-dead, if not dead.
What if no one saves him in this life? Wouldn't he, as a child, be less fortunate?
Since Lu Qi is so eager to die, let him be. Who told him to not know how to enjoy a good life and to only think about unorthodox things all the time now that he's grown up?
In his past life, Lu Weifeng saw that Lu Qi was an innocent child, so he immediately reached out to help without thinking too much.
This time, Lu Weifeng didn't want to be the meddlesome one again.
Everyone has their own destiny, and he must learn to respect the arrangements of fate. Since what is meant to come will come, there is no need for him to meddle.
If you don't know what the future holds, then no matter what happens in the present, just try to get by and don't try to change the status quo.
When people get along, conflicts and disagreements are inevitable, but they shouldn't lead to death.
In his previous life, Lu Weifeng held this same belief: that everyone should live peacefully in their own little world.
But in the end, it turned out that Lu Weifeng was too naive and didn't think things through.
Otherwise, Lu Qi and his mother wouldn't have developed such greedy hearts.
Even after Jiang Xiaofen got married in her previous life, she still encouraged Lu Qi to run around and cause trouble, which must have been because she was living too comfortably.
As for the specific details of Lu Qi's injury, I won't go into them. In the end, Lu Qi ended up with a broken leg.
This lesson was etched in his memory, and it was the most regrettable mountain climb he had ever made in his life.
Jiang Xiaofen, just three days after her son was injured and Lu Weisheng passed away, was caught red-handed having an affair with Lu Weijiang, thus ruining her reputation in the village.
Lu Weijiang brought this upon himself. That day, when the brothers were having dinner together, Lu Weifeng had already warned everyone that Jiang Xiaofen was up to something.
The brothers didn't understand what Lu Weifeng meant.
But they all kept their guard up and were extra careful.
Jiang Xiaofen secretly plotted in her heart, feeling that this was an excellent opportunity to use her "old trick" again.
So, she said with a smile, "I have been living in the Empress's house for many years, and I am truly grateful to the Empress and my uncle for their tolerance and acceptance of me all this time."
After Jiang Xiaofen finished speaking, she paused for a moment, looked at Lu Weifeng's face, and saw that his eyes were heavy and he seemed to be backing down, but then she thought that since they had come this far, she had no choice but to bite the bullet and continue.
"Although my cousin didn't say anything when he came back this time, I still feel a little guilty. So... I'd like to take this opportunity to toast him today, hoping he won't take my presence to heart."
Jiang Xiaofen had her own ulterior motives for saying that.
After all, the reason she was able to live in the Lu family was that she was pregnant out of wedlock.
This fact makes her position in the village and the Lu family somewhat delicate.
Jiang Xiaofen's family refused to let her return home because of her premarital pregnancy, while her aunt, Lu's mother, was kind-hearted and pitied her plight.
With their son not around, the elderly couple felt somewhat lonely, so they brought Jiang Xiaofen home to live with them.
With that said, it made perfect sense for Jiang Xiaofen to toast Lu Weifeng.
The intention was also to let Lu Weiqing and the others know that the things that happened later were all actions taken after everyone had drunk too much, so that they could serve as witnesses later.
Unfortunately, Lu Weifeng dodged it, which made Jiang Xiaofen lose face in front of several of her brothers.
Lu Weijiang was quite chivalrous and thought that Lu Weifeng looked down on them, the rural people, because he was a college student.
So he stepped forward to help Jiang Xiaofen out of the predicament, no matter how Jiang Xiaofen tried to refuse.
Seeing this, Lu Weifeng said, "Alright, then you drink it." He then pushed the glass of wine that Jiang Xiaofen had handed him to Lu Weijiang, and told them to drink it.
Although Lu Weijiang's words implied that Lu Weifeng looked down on them, he was just venting his frustrations.
He stared at the half-bowl of wine in front of him, and couldn't help but have second thoughts.
As the eldest brother, Lu Weiqing stepped in to defuse the situation, saying, "Alright, Xiaofeng was just joking, don't take it seriously."
Lu Weijiang originally wanted to take the opportunity to back down, but seeing his brothers staring at him expectantly, he was too embarrassed to lose face, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet, pick up the bowl, and gulp it down.
What happens next is entirely up to fate.
