Chapter 82: It’s Uncertain Whose Territory Will Be Buried in the Future
Lu Zhenping’s words were like a cup of cold water thrown into hot oil, instantly exploding with disorienting force, yet he stood there, calm and collected, seemingly oblivious to the devastating impact of his own words.
Lu Changzhu realized that his son was saying all this at the doorstep of their family home as a way to support Shen Meng. Otherwise, they could have closed the door and had a proper family discussion instead of demeaning his own brother in front of everyone, saying he had no abilities of his own and could only find temporary work at the commune with his elder brother’s help.
He was blaming himself for overstepping as a father, but this damn fool didn’t even know what was happening. If he did, he would definitely side with the Lu Family.
"Zhenping, you just got back and don’t know the problems at home. I don’t blame you for taking the side of your wife. Let me explain: your wife has some real skills – buying a bicycle without a word and even secured a clay-tile factory job placement certificate. Before that certificate could even warm up, she took it back to her maiden home. What do you say about such a wife? Should she be beaten or not? You weren’t home, your brothers couldn’t hit her, so naturally, I, as your father, took the responsibility to discipline her. Otherwise, she might just walk all over you in the future."
Lu Zhenping remained silent. His father’s words were loaded with information, and the people standing outside began to gossip. But he appeared more interested in sizing up Shen Meng.
Shen Meng: "...."
What did that mean? Was he disparaging her height???
Zhou Jiaojiao’s face turned somewhat pale. When Zhenping belittled Lu Jiaxuan in front of so many people just now, it made her quite uncomfortable. She had previously hoped that once her big brother returned, Shen Meng would no longer have good days, especially since she heard from Wu Xianglan that the relationship between the big brother and his wife was quite cold, and she believed it.
