After the inner voice was exposed, the cannon fodder group was scolded by me

Tuk-tuk-tuk!

"Sister, Grandpa asked me to ask you to come down for dinner."

Outside the door, Lu Chengyan's voice was heard.

When Lu Zhaoning opened the door, he met Lu Chengyan's cunning eyes.

He raised his eyebrows and asked with a funny look, "What's that expression on your face?"

"Everyone knows about your bravery and fighting skills. I have already told everyone about your heroic deeds in the group."

"Who are you referring to?"

"Of course it's us brothers and sisters." Lu Chengyan paused, then added, "No outsiders."

They both knew who this outsider was.

Ding!

Messages kept ringing on the phone.

Lu Zhaoning clicked on it and found that he was pulled into a WeChat group called Lu Family Meeting Room.

Lu Shiyi: [Did Lu Zhaoning really beat Zhixia in front of grandma? ]

Others responded with question mark expressions.

Lu Chengyan immediately started a voice message in the group: [Brother Shi Yu, where did you hear this rumor? Is my sister the kind of person who only knows how to make small calculations? She is always very direct when she takes action, okay? ]

Lu Zhaoning glanced at Lu Chengyan and said, "Are you really not afraid of getting beaten for saying bad things about me in front of me?"

"Sister, I am just trying to clear your name, so that no one will complain and say that they were bullied by you."

"It doesn't matter, I don't care."

When Lu Zhaoning went downstairs, everyone in the Lu family was there except her and Lu Chengyan.

"Zhao Ning, sit here with me."

When Lu Jinyue saw Lu Zhaoning, she motioned for her to sit over.

Lu Zhenghe thought that his relationship with his daughter had eased a lot in the afternoon, so he wanted Lu Zhaoning to sit next to him, but he saw that Lu Zhaoning was already sitting next to Lu Jinyue.

"I brought you several high-end dresses. Go up and try them on after dinner. If they don't fit, I'll take them back and have them altered."

"Thank you, aunt!"

Lu Zhaoning already has all kinds of dresses in her wardrobe, but she is still grateful for Lu Jinyue's kindness.

Originally, she wanted to wait until the plot was almost finished before telling Lu Jinyue the whereabouts of the child.

But seeing the haggardness and anxiety that could not be concealed in Lu Jinyue's eyes and eyebrows, Lu Zhaoning decided that she would tell Lu Jinyue about the whereabouts of the child after dinner.

"Jinyue, how can you be so partial as an aunt? You only prepared a dress for Zhaoning, but what about Zhixia's?"

After Mrs. Lu said this, the restaurant was silent for a moment.

[Is the old lady confused or can she only see Meng Zhixia? ]

[The old lady felt that she had killed her brother, so it was natural for her to love her brother's granddaughter, but genes are hereditary, especially the lie gene.]

All the elders who heard Lu Zhaoning's inner thoughts cast their eyes vaguely on Meng Zhixia.

"Mom, Zhaoning's birthday party is coming soon. This is the first time she has appeared in public in 20 years. As the only eldest daughter of the Lu family, she must attract attention. Doesn't Zhixia have a dress?"

"Then prepare two similar sets, so that others will know that our Lu family has a pair of sisters."

[Moms, do you feel a little distant? I need sisters? ]

Madam Lu's words were shocking. Not only the younger generation of the Lu family were shocked, but even Mr. Lu frowned.

But even if he was unhappy with his wife, he would not say anything in public.

"Why are you all looking at me like that? Although Zhixia's last name is not Lu, she is also the girl I raised. If the eldest brother hadn't disagreed, Zhixia would be a lady of the Lu family now."

This reunion dinner is destined to be a bad one.

"What are you talking about? I have a daughter, so why should I raise someone else's child?"

Lu Zhenghe said this with a cold expression, and gave Lu Zhaoning a reassuring look, indicating that she didn't need to worry.

"Grandma, what you said is true. Zhixia's surname is Meng. She is the daughter of your nephew from your mother's side. Our Lu family has raised her for so many years. Isn't that enough?"

Lu Jinbei's words were not so nice, and he said them more bluntly.

Madam Lu said sternly, "It's just a girl. It's not like the Lu family can't afford to raise her."

"Not to mention a girl, even thousands of Lu families can afford to support her, but why would the Lu family support someone who is not related to them?"

Lu Jinbei had a smile on his face and spoke in a calm tone, but the tone of his question made Madam Lu feel a little unhappy.

Meng Zhixia, who was being discussed, was even more embarrassed.

She knew that Lu Jinbei had never liked her, and it became even worse after Lu Zhaoning came back.

So she tried her best to avoid being with Lu Jinbei, for fear that he would see through her thoughts.

"What are you talking about? Zhixia is my grandniece from my mother's side. She is my relative and your relative as well. How can she be an irrelevant person?"

Lu Chengyan ignored his mother's eyes and said with a smile: "Grandma, you love Sister Zhixia so much, can't you love my sister more? My sister was bullied by the Jiang family before."

"I don't think she has the personality to be bullied. Who knows what's going on."

Lu Zhaoning just found it funny. She picked up her chopsticks and looked directly at Old Madam Lu.

Lu Zhenghe stood up suddenly, his brows and eyes sullen: "Mom, you are Zhaoning's grandmother, but you said such words, are you deliberately hurting her feelings?"

"No, I'm just talking about the facts." As if she had thought of something, Madam Lu asked coldly, "I heard that she wants to act again?"

"As a father, I am proud of my daughter's ability to protect herself. My daughter can do whatever she wants, and I agreed to her acting."

Madam Lu's face also darkened.

"The eldest daughter of the Lu family is determined to become an actress. How will people view our Lu family if this gets out?"

[The old lady kept calling him an opera singer. Didn’t the Meng family make a living by performing operas in the early years? ]

Lu Zhaoning sneered in his heart.

[In order to elevate Meng Zhixia and belittle me, her own granddaughter, the old lady probably has forgotten what her ancestors did, right? This is not the way to forget one's roots! ]

The elders of the Lu family felt a little embarrassed when they heard the inner thoughts, and the younger generation didn't even dare to look at Madam Lu.

Shen Qinghe, who is always good at dealing with people, didn't want to interrupt, so as to avoid being bombarded with criticism.

"Old lady, you said that actors are just actors, not to mention the distant past, my uncle and aunt met because of the drama, and Brother Shi Yu is very popular in the entertainment industry.

There is no distinction between high and low occupations, only people with a heart see everything as dirty."

"You're so rebellious... How dare you scold me like that!"

Lu Zhaoning stood up and apologized to Mr. Lu: "I'm sorry, Grandpa, I said something very excessive. I will go back to my room to reflect on it now."

Reflection or anything like that is, of course, impossible.

But if you contradict the old lady in public, you always have to give her a way out.

Mr. Lu glanced at his wife with a pair of wise eyes and said in a gentle tone: "If you are not full, ask the kitchen to prepare some food for you. Girls can't stop eating well just to lose weight."

The Lu family didn’t even raise this child. How badly was she bullied in the Jiang family?

This child has a sharp temper and is not smooth enough, but there is nothing wrong with that.

If she wants to act, then she can act. The Lu family will provide her with the resources.

My wife has been cultivating herself over the years, but her temperament has become more and more left-leaning, and no one will live according to her wishes.
