The rebirth of the Republic of China

Lu Yihua's mood hadn't recovered until dinner time.

After looking at the dishes on the table, he was not very interested, and sat lazily on the first seat under the main seat.

Lu Han and Lu Jiamin looked at each other, and looked at Lu Yihua in unison.

The old man of the Lu family had a flirtatious life when he was young, and it was only when he met Lu Yihua's mother that he finally settled down and went home to have a peaceful life. Therefore, before Lu Yihua was born, the Lu family already had a concubine Miss Lu Han.

The wife of the Lu family, Cheng Xiuyu, was born in a family. Before she married Mr. Lu, she was a well-known talented woman in Shanghai, and her appearance was even better.

At the beginning, when Mr. Lu married his wife when he was still a teenager, the ostentation caused a sensation in Shanghai, and many people were envious.

Mr. Lu had a bad reputation when he was young. Although he managed the family with amazing skills, he was too casual in his private life.Therefore, apart from being envious, many people wanted to see how this flowery Miss Cheng would be treated when she arrived at the Lu family.

But the result was beyond everyone's expectations. Almost on the first day after marriage, the young master of the Lu family simply and neatly settled all his troubles outside without leaving any trouble for his wife. Relying on the old love, he just disappeared in Shanghai.

Mr. Lu's father was in poor health, so he handed over such a large family business to his son early on. Mr. Lu took on the responsibility of acting as the head of the family when he was a boy. For decades, he has been on the beach, and he has a kind of pressure on his body. Apart from Lu Yihua, none of the remaining sons and daughters of the Lu family were not afraid of their father.

Lu Yihua can be regarded as an outlier in the Lu family. He was raised in the palm of his benevolent mother since he was a child. It was not until the age of eight that the wife of the Lu family was weak after giving birth to the second youngest son of the Lu family. Handed over to servants.

Perhaps it is precisely because of this that the old man of the Lu family loves his eldest son very much. He often teases him with his wife, and treats him more indulgently than the other two children. When Lu Yihua was ten years old, the wife of the Lu family finally couldn't bear it. , died of illness less than half a year after giving birth to the third miss of the Lu family.

Lu Yihua had a deep affection for his mother. During the days when Mrs. Lu's wife passed away, he could barely eat, shut himself in the house and did not go out. Useless.

Mr. Lu was exhausted because of his wife's funeral and family affairs, so he had no time to take care of others. After a month of busy work, he realized that his son had become so emaciated. After trying various methods to no avail, he had no choice but to use a The most stupid way is to bring your son with you no matter what you do. In addition to the entire Lu family, I am afraid that only the eldest son has a little bit of affection for Mrs. Lu, so Mr. Lu is more indulgent to his son.

After another two years like this, one day, Lu Yihua suddenly proposed to Mr. Lu that he wanted to study abroad.

Because Lu Yihua has been very assertive since he was a child, the father not only didn't worry about it, but felt that boys should go through more twists and turns in order to succeed, so he happily agreed. Whoever thought that the child would no longer be his own when he went out, and came back. In the end, he even contracted the problem of being a good man.

After Mr. Lu regretted it, there was nothing he could do. One year after Lu Yihua returned to China, he left him a letter and went to join the army outside. He clearly stated that he would not inherit the family business. There was absolutely no way, I could only let him go after thinking about it.

It's just that it's up to him to let him go. After all, the son can't be controlled by the father, but this doesn't mean that Mr. Lu doesn't care. On the contrary, it is because he cares so much about this son and is afraid of losing that he had to make a compromise.

But after all, Mr. Lu has been strong for half his life, and he will never feel comfortable under compromise. Now when he just sat at the dinner table, he saw Lu Yihua sitting lazily and leaning on the chair. Now the man in the room on the second floor, the old man got angry immediately.

"Crack!" With a sound, everyone at the dining table was startled, and all of them immediately sat upright.

Lu Yihua paused in his heart, and sat down when he heard the sound.

Mr. Lu looked at Liu Sheng who asked him questioningly, and took a breath: "Keep eating."

Although Liu Sheng was Lu Yihua's adjutant, he was a guest at his house after all. Mr. Lu had a good impression of this motivated young man, so he suppressed his anger.

Lu Yihua heaved a sigh of relief when he heard the words, and also realized that he had done what he had done tonight, so he quickly bent down and picked up the porcelain bowl on the table, filled a bowl of nourishing clear soup, put it in front of Mr. Lu, and said with a smile: "Father, try this, it's today Is it something new made by a cook? I haven’t even seen it before.”

Mr. Lu gave him an angry and funny look and did not speak. Lu Yihua was puzzled by that look. The third lady of the Lu family next to him had already put down her chopsticks and said, "Brother, our family has been making this soup for three years. I do it all the time, a prescription from an old Chinese doctor, which is very good for our father's health."

"Really?" Lu Yihua was embarrassed for a rare moment, touched his nose with a smile, and at the same time raised his head and glared at Lu Jiamin.

Lu Jiamin stuck out her tongue, there was nothing she could do, her father was too angry to be scary, for the sake of her figure, she didn't want to have supper tonight.

Liu Sheng raised his head and glanced at Old Man Lu, and questioned, "Is the old man not in good health?"

Mr. Lu waved his hands and smiled, and said: "What's wrong, don't listen to that girl Minmin's nonsense. It's just that I've been old for two years. After all, age is not forgiving, and I can't improve my spirit."

Liu Sheng thought for a while, put down his chopsticks, and said, "Our family used to know an old Chinese doctor who has a special research on acupuncture and moxibustion. If you have time, please let someone contact you. It should be good for your health."

Mr. Lu has become interested now. Over the years, his spirit has deteriorated day by day. Although it is not a big problem, people always want to be in better health: "Where is that man?"

"He is from Zhejiang. My father often went to Zhejiang when he was young. I met him by chance. I still have his address. I will write to you later. I just don't know if that gentleman is still there after all these years There."

"It's better than nothing." Mr. Lu smiled, "I've been in a bad mood for the past two years, but it's restrained me. It's hard to stay at home as a whole."

Seeing that they were talking happily, Lu Yihua couldn't help pouring cold water on the side for a moment: "Even if you are in good spirits, you still have to stay at home. There is a lot of chaos outside. Do you think it was the time when you could ride a horse and wander around?"

Mr. Lu was upset: "Why are you such a disappointment, kid?!"

"I'm telling the truth, father, you can't listen to advice if you like it."

Lu Jiamin couldn't stand it anymore, rolled his eyes, and said, "Brother, that's not what you said. Our father is growing old now, why do you always want such a powerful character to retire?" Distressed look.

Lu Han on the side lowered his head to eat, but he couldn't hide the raised corner of his mouth.

Lu Yihua swallowed the food in his mouth, glanced at Lu Jiamin, leaned back on the chair, spread his hands and said, "What's the matter today, are you all attacking me?"

Lu Jiamin said disdainfully: "You are not so wronged, big brother, now the second brother is not here, just us?" She pointed to Lu Han who had not said a word and was eating quietly by her side, hesitated and pointed again Pointing to Liu Sheng, "It's just the three of us? Your second brother's main combat power is not there, and we don't have enough to fill your teeth. Don't you feel blush for wronging someone so wrong?"

Lu Yihua rubbed his chin, looked at the two people sitting across from him, and the person beside him stretched his arms around the neck of Liu Sheng who was sitting next to him, and looked at Lu Jia who was opposite him with a friendly look. Min said: "Three? At most, it's just the two of you, let alone Sister Han, do you think she's like you?"

Lu Jiamin blinked, looked around at Lu Yihua and Liu Sheng who was being held by him, blinked again, turned to look at old man Lu: "Father, big brother bullied me."

Lu Jiamin and Mr. Lu are not close, and often can't even speak a few words, but every time Lu Yihua comes back, Mr. Lu will show kindness that is rare in ordinary times, and the children can also take the opportunity to relax and enjoy the family happiness .

This war of words finally ended under the authority of the old man of the Lu family. After dinner, Lu Yihua went to the yard alone, and Lu Yihua lit a cigarette, feeling relieved.However, before the first puff of smoke came out of his mouth, Liu Sheng came over in a hurry: "Master, the guard who was guarding your door just now came and said that Major Zhao was in the room and said he wanted to find you."

"En." Lu Yihua replied, with a vague meaning in his voice. Liu Sheng waited for a while and saw that he didn't move, hesitated for a while, and said, "Why don't you go and have a look? Major Zhao's condition is not very good."

Lu Yihua glanced back at him when he heard the words, then looked away after a while, put out his cigarette without saying a word, and asked inexplicably, "Zhengzheng, do you think there will be karma in this world?"

Liu Sheng was startled, and raised his head abruptly. Lu Yihua's back was facing him at this moment, and he could only see half of his side face bathed in the light. He cautiously asked tentatively, "...Karma?"

"There are three retributions in karma: one is immediate retribution, the second is retribution for life, and the third is immediate retribution; if good deeds do not prosper, there will be remnants of the ancestors, and they will prosper when all disasters are exhausted; evil will not be eliminated..." Lu Yihua's words behind were vague, and Liu Sheng could only vaguely Yolian guessed and distinguished these sentences, but the more he listened, the more frightened he became, and finally he couldn't help it, and interrupted him with a raised voice: "Master seat!"

The sudden sound made Lu Yihua's heart tremble, the cloud in his head dissipated instantly, and his hazy eyes gradually cleared up.

Seeing that he was awake, Liu Sheng stayed silent with him for a long while before saying: "Master, I don't quite understand what happened to you. Since more than two months ago, you have started to have some slight changes. How can I say this? I can't describe this change." Whether it’s good or not, you see things are deeper than before, but your spirit—” After a pause, the next words twirled on his tongue, Liu Sheng bowed his head and said respectfully, “Your spirit Makes me a little worried."

Lu Yihua didn't speak, he raised his head and silently looked at the moon in the sky.

He also understands that his emotions have been fluctuating too much these days, but he can't tell people the reason for this kind of thing. Today, he suddenly wanted to say something, so he chose cause and effect, a topic that is easier for people to accept, but he didn't expect that he almost put himself go around.

Lu Yihua closed his eyes, laughed at himself, turned around and saw Liu Sheng still standing there with his head down, the softness in his eyes flashed away, walked over and patted him on the shoulder, explaining: "I have been emotional for the past two days. It's not right, but it's not as serious as you think, it may be caused by too many things in the past two days, and it will be fine after a while."

"Master seat..."

Lu Yihua, who had already turned and walked back, stopped when he heard the sound, and turned to look at Liu Sheng who was hesitant to speak.

"This afternoon..."

Lu Yihua raised his eyebrows and looked at him: "Although I was the one who vented my anger, I apologized at the time. You don't remember it until now, do you?"

Liu Sheng was silent for a while, then suddenly smiled and said, "No, I mean this afternoon I suddenly thought of something from the past, can you grant me a long vacation, I want to go back to Shanghai."
