Speaking of this matter, Ling Ruyan felt a headache: "This matter is not decided by our old man, it still depends on what your aunt wants."

"Don't blame Xiao Ning." Lu Xiao patted her hand: "The original engagement was between Xiao Ning and the Lu family's grandchildren. Now your grandson's marriageable son must be a young man."

"Young Master Duan was engaged to Miss Sun from the provincial capital. He couldn't marry Xiao Ning, so he asked Xiao Ning to marry your second uncle. Although your second uncle gave birth to a child late in life, he is only thirty now."

"But she is seven or eight years older than Xiao Ning. It's understandable that we, Xiao Ning, don't want to marry."

Ling Ruyin glared at her: "Don't make excuses for your sister-in-law. Don't you think I don't know? Her refusal to marry is not because of our second uncle's age, but because she has a heart."

"Oh, let me tell you, how could you, the Duan family, not know about this?" Lu Xiao laughed: "That little aunt does have someone she likes, but I heard that there is no chance for the two of them."

"Although that man was a figure in the army, he retired two years ago, and it was not honorable when he retired. It is impossible for my old gentleman to agree to this marriage."

Ling Ruyan sighed again: "If you ask me, since both children are not happy, it would be better to give up on the marriage. Why bother to make it difficult for several children."

Lu Xiao shook his head:

"I don't understand what my old man thinks. The older I get, the harder it is to guess. I don't dare to go back now, lest it cause disharmony in the family."

Ling Ruyan stood up and closed the door. When she came back, she lowered her voice and said, "I shouldn't ask a question. Did your old man take part in the Han family's incident?"

"You really shouldn't ask this. How can I, a married woman, know whether you participated or not?" Lu Xiao glanced at her: "Get out quickly, I don't want to see you now."

Ling Ruyan looked kind-hearted:

"We are two sisters. Don't blame me for not reminding you. A task force has been set up and people have been transferred from the provincial capital. At this juncture, please let your old man restrain himself."

"Especially when it comes to the Han family. I had to get rid of it as soon as I got involved in it before. But that person won't let it go so easily when he comes back this time."

Lu Xiao's face was not very good:

"The task force is investigating the issue of corruption and collusion between government and businessmen. Although my Lu family has some business, it is a serious business. How could it be related to this matter?"

As for the Han family's affairs, they happened 30 or [-] years ago, and she doesn't know anything about it!

"Xiao Xiao, are you stupid for being a doctor? Do you really not know what the Lu family has been doing in the past few years or are you pretending not to know?"

Ling Ruyan said with a serious look on her face: "You think I am my father, why did you stop walking with yours five years ago?"

"Isn't that because my eldest brother went to the army and your old man wanted to avoid suspicion?"

Ling Ruyan shook his head: "This is just one aspect. The main reason is that my old man discovered that the Lu family has been interacting with local officials, and there are some unclear implications."

"As you know, except for my second uncle who is engaged in politics, everyone else in our family has retired. Old Duan and I are more focused on business and don't care much about the above-mentioned matters."

"It was also the old man who told us not to get involved in the Lu family's business, so we started to pay attention to the Lu family's business..."

Ling Ruyan did not continue: "Anyway, if you don't want to injure your husband's family, it's best not to interfere in the Lu family's affairs. I treat you like a biological sister and that's why I'm telling you these things. Don't take it seriously."

"I understand." Lu Xiao knew in her heart that several people in the big family were clean.

In particular, the old lady did want her husband to help the Lu family's business through the back door several times, but she always refused.

Before, she only thought that the old lady was eager to protect her son, and she was confused. The old man didn't know about it, but now it seems that the old man is also an insider!

Lu Xiao's feelings for the Lu family are extremely complicated, and she was also a victim of the marriage at the beginning.

Fortunately, she was clear-headed and fell in love with her current husband.

In addition, her husband's family was considered a well-known family in Beijing, so there was no opposition from her family. It was just that the Lu family thought that after she got married, her husband's family would become a support to her husband's family.

Who knows that my husband's family always has principles in doing things, so he doesn't violate the principles and blindly helps the Lu family!

It's no wonder that every time she returns to the Lu family, she always gets a cold look from the old man.

Lu Xiao smiled bitterly, shook her head and continued writing her report.

I am afraid that the only pure person in the Lu family is Lu Xiao.

It was precisely because Ling Ruyan knew this that she told her these words, and it was also because the Han family's affairs were settled that Ling Ruyan dared to say this.

Last year, she would not have dared to say these words to Lu Xiao.

After coming out of the hospital, Su Yuning refused Duan Cheng's offer, thanked Ling Ruyan, and then returned home with Xiao Mohan.
