70: The Soldier King's Supernatural Wife, Three Babies in One Child

Facing Liu Zhibai's inquiring eyes, Tao Yuwei just smiled brightly, and her smile made her heart wander among the peach blossoms flying all over the sky.

I no longer have the desire to hold anyone accountable.

After leaving, Lu Chaoyan walked forward along the dirt road in front of the Si family.

After walking for more than ten minutes, we crossed a magnificent old bridge and arrived at an ancient bluestone road built along the river bank.

Three hundred meters to the left after crossing the ancient road, there is a big soapberry tree, and under the tree is a century-old well.

Behind the tree are four rows of blue brick and tile houses, which are the brigade office, collective warehouse and educated youth compound.

On the left side of these houses, there is an ancient building with a large courtyard, which is the original owner's home.

The original owner's maternal grandfather, Lu Yungui, had five generations of ancestors who were doctors. The bridge in front of the door, the bluestone road, the old well and the rows of houses in the brigade headquarters were all built by Lu's ancestors.

However, after the war, the people of the Lu family devoted themselves to the patriotic cause and lost contact, leaving only Lu Yungui and his little daughter Lu Xiang.

When Lu Xiang was young, he witnessed a massacre by a villain, which left him with a psychological trauma and made him timid and autistic.

Seeing that his daughter was silent all day, Lu Yungui decided to adopt a child.

It was both to pass on the Lu family's medical skills and to take care of his daughter.

After searching for a long time, he adopted several boys who were about the same age as Lu Xiang.

But when Lu Xiang saw them, she cried and screamed as if she had seen ghosts.

Until Liu Ergouzi appeared, Lu Xiang not only did not reject it, but also opened his mouth to speak.

From then on, Liu Ergouzi changed his name to Liu Zhibai and stayed in the Lu family. He not only followed Lu Yungui to learn medicine, but also took Lu Xiang to school.

When Lu Yungui saw that his daughter had recovered from her illness, he was very grateful to Liu Zhibai and often helped his widowed mother, elder brother, elder sister and younger brother.

After graduating from middle school, Lu Xiang returned home to take care of his father, while Liu Zhibai went to a big city to attend university.

Seeing the prosperity and openness of the outside world, Liu Zhibai fell in love with his college classmate, Gu Suyi, a daughter of a capitalist.

Deep down in her heart, Gu Suyi looked down on him. Facing Liu Zhibai's pursuit, she was as arrogant as a peacock.

It is precisely this kind of unrequited love that makes Liu Zhibai fall deeper.

Later, the Lu family's income dropped sharply, and Liu Zhibai had to separate from the goddess Bai Yueguang, drop out of school and go home to marry Lu Xiang.

He blamed Lu Yungui for his lost love and raised him.

He resented Lu Yungui for not letting him continue his studies, and he also hated Lu Xiang for blocking him from pursuing true love.

But due to the eyes of outsiders, he maintained superficial closeness.

It was not until Gu Suyi's family was sent down to Lianshan Brigade that he began to abuse Lu Xiang with cold violence, and he continues to do so until now.

Lu Chaoyan did not enter the house, but walked along the bluestone path, came to a step, and arrived at the washing table by the river.

The bright moonlight fell on the gurgling river, like broken silver scattered on the ground.

It looked so desolate as it fell on the slender and frail woman washing clothes by the river.

Her once pretty face was now full of wrinkles and looked sallow.

The joints of his hands were bent and deformed, and only bones and a layer of skin were visible on his arms.

A head of short white hair, mixed with sweat, stuck to the head stickyly.

In the large wooden basin at her feet was a small pile of clothes, including men's, women's, and children's clothes, but there were no clothes for her, her daughter, and her son.

She is the super love-brained Lu Xiang, the original owner’s mother.

She is more hardworking than an old ox and never complains. If Liu Zhibai asks her to go east, she will never go west, even if her life is required.

Lu Chaoyan really couldn't understand her train of thought and wanted to throw all the clothes into the river.

But the original owner's memory told her that if she did that, Lu Xiang would jump into the river and retrieve all the clothes.

If one thing was missing, she would kneel in the yard and reflect on herself.

This kind of self-touching sacrifice has penetrated into her bones and cannot be easily changed.

However, the book states that after the original owner and her brother died, she also committed suicide.

Her death was a small climax of the plot, and even readers were singing and celebrating in the comment section, as one less vicious villain.

He also said that no one could stop the original owner's father from pursuing true love.

But what the original owner saw was his indifferent father, who gave other women and their children white rice to eat, fine cotton clothes to wear, and did not allow them to work in the fields.

Her mother and her three sisters worked more than 360 hours a year and ate only wild vegetable cakes and corn soup.

I have to wait until I get off work and do it myself.

Lu Chaoyan sighed secretly, sat on the stone steps and waited.

Lu Xiang's back was hunched a little. After washing the last piece of clothes, she looked up and saw her daughter sitting behind her. She said angrily, "When did you come? You scared me. What did the Si family say? When are you and Zheng Yang getting married?"

"I'm backing off. I'm not going to get married anymore."

Lu Chaoyan was not the original owner, and there was no sadness in her tone.

Lu Xiang was anxious, "What, not getting married? Why not? Does your father know?"

"Liu Zhibai advocated the withdrawal. Don't be angry. Si Zhengyang doesn't like me anymore. I don't want to get into trouble by pestering him. Find me a better one later."

I will definitely not look for one again. I will just go back and find a high-quality man to lend me sperm and raise a child with.

"What nonsense are you talking about? How can you cancel a good marriage? I'll ask your father tomorrow."

"Don't ask, I didn't lie to you, this is the compensation from the Si family," Lu Chaoyan took out the three hundred yuan, "I'll save it tomorrow and save it as a dowry."

Lu Xiang looked at the money and felt upset. Her daughter had the same miserable life as her. She had given so much for the one she loved, but they all turned a blind eye to it.

"You should save the money for your father."

"No, this is given to me by Si Zhengyang, no one else can take it away."

Lu Chaoyan put the money into his pocket, picked up the wooden basin, and walked towards the Lu family angrily.

That expression gave Lu Xiang the illusion that Lu Chaoyan was still thinking about Si Zhengyang, and she wanted to use money to win back Si Zhengyang's heart.

She gave up the idea of ​​asking her daughter for money.

She also hopes that her daughter can get what she wants, live in love with her beloved man and grow old together.

Seeing that she didn't ask for money again, Lu Chaoyan thought about it for a while and guessed what she was thinking.

She shook her head speechlessly, indicating that she could not understand the thinking of a love-brained person.

When they arrived at the Lu family’s gate, Lu Chaoyan kicked the door open and walked in.

The Lu family compound covers a total area of ​​more than 300 square meters. The first two rooms are a medical clinic with doors facing the stone road, and next to them is the main gate into the courtyard.

There are two large wing rooms on each side.

The two rooms on the left are occupied by Tao Yuwei's eldest brother Tao Rui and his family, and Liu Zhibai's younger brother Liu Sandou's eldest son Liu Yuanhang and his family.

Of the two rooms on the right, one used to be the Lu family's dining room, and is now where Liu Sandou and his wife live, and the other is the kitchen.

There are three rooms in the main house, with a living room in the middle. Lu Xiang and the original owner live at the east end, and the original owner's younger brother Lu Hanqing, Liu Sandou's youngest son Liu Yuanzheng, and Tao Yuwei's second brother Tao Jin live at the west end.

There are three rooms in a row in the backyard, one on the right and two on the left, separated by a high wall.

The one on the right is used to raise pigs and chickens, store firewood, farm tools and other sundries.

The two rooms on the left are equivalent to independent small courtyards. They are kept clean and tidy, and are planted with flowers and plants.

It is the "golden cage" that Liu Zhibai built for her white moonlight goddess Gu Suyi.
