Chapter 67 Go and invite in person!

Gu Chi looked at the three women as if they were enemies, and the villagers naturally understood what was happening.

My alertness instantly rose: "What are you three doing?"

"Hurry up and leave Gu Chi's house, otherwise the people in our village will be hard to deal with."

Faced with these aggressive villagers, Lu Meng and the other three didn't dare to stay here even if they wanted to.

I could only say goodbye hastily and leave quickly.

The villagers looked at the three people's receding backs, turned around and looked at Gu Chi with a smile on their faces.

"We heard from the village chief and others that you are the top scorer in our city's college entrance examination, so we came here to give you something as a token of our appreciation."

"Here, this is all made at home."

"If you have any difficulties in the future, just tell us. We are all neighbors and we will do our best to help you."

……

Gu Chi didn't expect that he would feel the warmth of home from so many strangers.

Gu Chi choked up for a moment: "Thank you all, I really appreciate your care for me."

"If you need any help from me in the future, just ask."

Several villagers smiled sheepishly: "You are still a child. What do we need your help with? We just want you to help our children mark the key points or something."

Gu Chi didn't think there was anything strange about such a request, as he just wanted his children to be able to get into a good school in the future.

"Okay, I'll summarize the notes, but the learning method varies from person to person, so I can only do my best."

Hearing this, several villagers were already grinning from ear to ear.

When the three sisters returned home, they did not expect that not only were the old couple of the Lu family still waiting, but even Lu Ziming, who was on a business trip, had also returned, and Zhao Rui was sitting next to Lu Ziming.

The three sisters stood side by side with their heads down, not daring to look up at the elders.

"Grandpa, grandma, dad, mom..."

Ever since they came in, Mr. Lu's face looked so gloomy that it looked like water was about to drip out.

"Hasn't that rebellious son Gu Chi come back yet?" Lu Ziming spoke first. "He's getting more and more rampant. This uneducated thing is really pissing me off."

Madam Lu said sarcastically: "It's because you haven't educated them well..."

As she said this, she glanced towards Zhao Rui twice. As a mother-in-law, she had always looked down on Zhao Rui.

Originally, Zhao Rui thought that the Lu family ignored her because she failed to give birth to a son. However, even after giving birth to Gu Chi, her attitude towards Zhao Rui remained unchanged.

It is because there is some gap in family conditions between the Zhao family and the Lu family. Although it is a family marriage, the Zhao family is actually marrying above their station.

Since Zhao Rui arrived at the Lu family, she has been under a lot of pressure. So no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't get pregnant, and the two elders of the Lu family became more and more dissatisfied.

Fortunately, Lu Ning was born in the third year. But when Zhao Rui was pushed out of the operating room, the first thing the old lady of the Lu family said when she saw her was to ask her to have another child.

Although Zhao Rui felt resentful about this matter, she did not dare to express anything. After all, the strength of the Lu family was there, and Zhao's father admired his son-in-law Lu Ziming very much, so she could only swallow her anger.

"Hmph! Don't forget, if it weren't for our Lu family, your Zhao family would have gone bankrupt long ago." Mrs. Lu snorted coldly, her eyes full of contempt and disgust. Mr. Lu coughed and said, "Okay, now that we're back, let's have dinner tonight. We've been tired all day, let's go to rest after dinner!"

After hearing what Mr. Lu said, everyone nodded and agreed.

At the dinner table, Madam Lu deliberately called Zhao Rui over and scolded her: "Rui Rui, you now have both a son and a daughter. Although Gu Chi did not grow up in the Lu family and seems to have problems with his education, he is the blood of our Lu family after all."

"How can you just leave it alone? Ziming is busy with work now. Don't you have the ability to take care of the housework at home?"

Mrs. Lu's words made Lu Ziming, who was standing next to her, frown. He glanced at Mrs. Lu and then at Zhao Rui.

Zhao Rui clenched her fingers nervously, bit her lips and said, "Mom, I understand what you said. Don't worry, I will definitely educate Gu Chi well."

"That's good..." Mrs. Lu said this and stopped talking.

Mr. Lu changed the subject and asked, "Ziming, how is your company doing recently?"

"It's fine. I just got a contract a while ago." He just came back from a business trip and just wanted to have a good rest, but it was difficult for him to show anything in front of the two elders. "Besides, most of the company's affairs are now handled by Lu Meng."

"Well, you did a good job." Mr. Lu praised, "In the future, you can let Tianci participate in the company's affairs appropriately. After all, Lu Meng is a girl and will get married sooner or later..."

Mr. Lu's sudden words made the restaurant quiet instantly, and all eyes were focused on Lu Meng.

Lu Meng's hand holding the chopsticks trembled slightly. No matter how hard she tried, she still had no say in the patriarchal society.

Perhaps because she had been suppressed for too long, Lu Meng actually spoke slowly: "I don't plan to get married."

These words were like a bomb, instantly igniting the emotions of the two elders of the Lu family.

"Lu Meng!" Lu Ziming shouted at her, "Don't just say that!"

Lu Meng raised her eyes to look at him and said calmly, "I know you are worried that Lu Meng will affect Lu Tianci's inheritance rights."

As soon as she said this, Lu Ziming immediately retorted: "What nonsense are you talking about!"

Madam Lu stared at Zhao Rui with eyes wide open, and then scolded: "Is this the good daughter you taught?"

Lu Ning nudged Lu Meng from the side, signaling her not to say anything more.

But it was obvious that such a reminder did not have much effect on Gu Chi. Perhaps he had been suppressed for too long, and Lu Meng wanted to find an outlet.

"Am I wrong? I work hard in the company, but I don't even have a little bit of equity. I can say nothing, why do you have to tell me so much?"

"After I get married, do I have to go to another family to help carry on the family line, so that my daughter can repeat my life?"

"If that's the case, why should I get married?"

After saying that, he turned around and left.

Mr. Lu was so angry that he had difficulty breathing. He covered his heart with his hands, but his eyes were still fixed on Lu Meng.

"Lu Meng, come back to me!" Ignoring Zhao Ziming's shouts behind her, Lu Meng left without looking back.

When she left home, Lu Meng felt that there was no place that could accommodate her.

Now she began to envy Gu Chi, who could control his own life instead of being a puppet of others like her.
