To avoid harassment from my brother-in-law, I got married to a wealthy man

The next day, Lu Xi went to Tanya's villa.

Ordinary people think that if someone in the family has passed away, it would be unlucky to keep the body at home, so most of them send the body directly to the crematorium. However, Fu Zongze brought the person back here, probably because he was afraid that Tanya would have no home.

It can be seen that he really loves his daughter-in-law.

As she walked in, Lu Xi couldn't help but wonder, Fu Zongze was so harsh on her, his granddaughter-in-law, but so indulgent towards Tan Ya, what was the difference between them?

"Xixi, you're here." Zhuang Yi ran over.

Lu Xi hugged Zhuang Yi and said, "Your eyes are swollen."

"It's okay. I just cried for a while. I remembered how my grandma loved me when I was a child. My grandma wasn't completely useless, and she's gone now, so I just thought more about her good points."

Zhuang Yi paused for a moment and then said, "Oh, by the way, my grandpa is back, and so is my second uncle."

In the past, Zhuang Yi liked to call them grandpa and grandma, but after being with Lu Xi for a long time, she felt that grandma and grandpa were closer to her.

Lu Xi was a little surprised. Fu Nanzhou's father and second brother came back?

That’s right, he is Tanya’s ex-husband after all, so it’s normal for him to come back.

"I'm telling you this because my grandpa is not easy to get along with. My second uncle... he has a sharp tongue and his words are not pleasant to hear. You should at least be mentally prepared."

Lu Xi nodded, "Okay, I understand."

The two best friends walked inside while talking.

The villa was shrouded in a solemn atmosphere. When people usually hold a funeral at home, there would always be ups and downs of crying, and everyone would be immersed in mourning. But it was different here. There was no crying, only dead silence. It was very depressing and made people breathless. Lu Xi couldn't help but take a long breath and then let it out, only then could he feel relieved.

Before he went in, Fu Nanzhou came out.

He was wearing black casual clothes and a filial piety badge on his arm. It was a pure black badge with the word "filial piety" engraved on it. Except for Fu Zongze, everyone else wore the same badge.

"Xixi."

Fu Nanzhou looked much more haggard, with dark circles under his eyes and black stubble on his chin. It was rare to see him looking so decadent.

Lu Xi nodded and leaned sideways, "Put it on me."

Fu Nanzhou was slightly startled, his throat felt dry and sore. Lu Xi could have not worn it, but it was all for him.

She lowered her eyelashes, and Fu Nanzhou put them on for her personally, "Xixi, thank you for coming."

Lu Xi didn't say anything and went into the living room with Zhuang Yi.

Now Tanya has changed into her shroud and put on new makeup.

I don’t know how the undertaker managed to restore a person who was disfigured beyond recognition in a car accident to his original appearance, as if it were magic.

Until now, Lu Xi still felt like she was dreaming. Just two days ago, he was arrogantly calling her a bitch, but now he is lying in a coffin. It is really fate's trick.

At this time, Fu Zongze came over with a cane, his face icy cold, "What are you doing here?"

"Grandpa!" Fu Nanzhou frowned.

Fu Zongze covered his chest, tears streaming down unconsciously, "If you hadn't asked her out that day, Xiaoya wouldn't have gotten into trouble, and I won't break my promise."

He dreamed of Xiaomei last night. Xiaomei blamed him for not taking good care of Tanya and even wanted to kill him in the dream. He felt really upset.

Lu Xi raised her chin slightly, and said firmly, "I won't take the blame for this. Mr. Fu, I know you are sad, but no matter how sad you are, you are not qualified to put all this on me. I made an appointment with Tanya only because she insulted my mother. The rest has nothing to do with me. You should hate the murderer.

"To put it bluntly, why did the waiter tamper with the brakes? Everything has a reason. We can't just put the blame on others when something goes wrong."

“Shut up!” Fu Zongze roared, his old face flushed with anger, because of Lu Xi’s disrespect, and even more because she exposed him.

He knew clearly that the little girl was innocent, but he still took out his anger on her. This was indeed a personal emotion, and it was not what an elder should do.

But people are selfish. Rather than blaming themselves, blaming others can make them feel more comfortable. He chose a way that would make himself less uncomfortable.

Lu Xi did not compromise. "Old man, you are old and cannot stand stimulation, but I am also pregnant and cannot stand being wronged, so don't find fault. If you are really angry, you will suffer. After all, I am young."

Fu Zongze felt a lump in his throat and stared at the girl in front of him with fiery eyes. It had only been a short time since she returned to the Shen family, but the weak little girl had become a thorny cactus and was growing up so fast!

"You know I'm not in good health, but you still come to make things difficult for me. Do you want to piss me off to death?"

"I didn't do that." Lu Xi muttered. She shouldn't have quarreled with Fu Zongze in such an occasion.

But she really couldn't bear it.

She has been a prick since she was young. Her sister always said that she was harsh with her words. She has been like this for many years, and it has become even worse after returning to the Shen family.

Especially since it wasn't Tanya's fault, why should she let herself be wronged?

At this time, a young and handsome man walked up to them and said, "My sister-in-law looks like a pretty girl, but I didn't expect her to be so sharp-tongued."

Lu Xi looked over and saw that this man had inherited the excellent genes of the Fu family and was very handsome, but he did not look much like Fu Nanzhou and Fu Dongzhou.

Everyone in the Fu family has sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, with three-dimensional facial features and a sense of volume, but this person has a pair of narrow and long phoenix eyes, which give people a feeling of coldness and unfathomableness.

This should be the Fu Xizhou that Zhuang Yi mentioned. He really seems to be a sharp-tongued person who is difficult to get along with.

"Second brother." Lu Xi called out.

Fu Xizhou raised his thin lips, and a hint of mischief flashed across his narrow eyes, "Hello, sister-in-law."

Before Lu Xi could say the second word, Fu Nanzhou came up to her and put his arm around her shoulders, "I'll take you to meet Dad."

Then he looked at Fu Xizhou deeply, and there were undercurrents in their eyes.

Lu Xi saw it, but she didn't quite understand. Isn't this Fu Nanzhou's second brother? Why do these two people seem...

Well, I can’t really put it into words, but I just feel like their relationship isn’t very good.

Fu Nanzhou hugged Lu Xi and left the villa, and said in a deep voice, "Stay away from my second brother. He is not as kind as he seems."

Lu Xi wanted to say that even on the surface, Fu Xizhou did not give people a kind feeling, but a somewhat dangerous feeling.

"Do you have a bad relationship with your second brother?"

"Yeah." Fu Nanzhou just responded and gave a positive answer, but did not say the reason why their relationship was not good.

Lu Xi didn't ask any more questions. After all, without Tanya, the brothers of the Fu family must be feeling sad.

In fact, Lu Xi knew very little about the Fu family, but she could sense that it was not as peaceful as it seemed.

After all, Fu Heng and Fu Xizhou are away from the country all year round, and Fu Nanzhou should have a younger sister besides Fu Beibei.

Also, Fu Heng is the eldest son, and Fu Zongze also has two daughters, which means Fu Nanzhou has two aunts, but none of these people came, which is obviously a bit abnormal.

However, Tanya was only Fu Heng's ex-wife after all, and not a member of the Fu family, so it was understandable that she did not come back.

Fu Heng was in the garden, and no one knew what he was thinking.

"Dad." Fu Nanzhou spoke in a deep voice, without a trace of emotion.

Fu Heng retracted his gaze, without looking back, and said indifferently: "Your mother and I have known each other since childhood.

"Your grandfather has always treated your mother as his own daughter. He forced me to marry her. I was unwilling, but in order not to go against your grandfather's wishes, I still married her.

"Your mother is not a good wife, let alone a good mother, but she gave birth to my children, including you guys, so I should thank her.

"These past two days, I couldn't help but wonder, if I had been more resolute at the beginning, would your mother not have become what she is now?"

This was the first time Fu Heng talked about Tanya with Fu Nanzhou.

"Nanzhou, your mother has let you down, but she also gave birth to you. Let's just let it go."

After saying these words, Fu Heng turned his head and saw Lu Xi was there too. His pupils trembled, and he opened his mouth and suddenly laughed sarcastically, "Fuck you..."
