Manor Romance

Chapter 416 Questioning
"Take it easy, Sister Suyan is here, and Ah Ci hasn't seen each other for many years. Speaking of leaving her in Luzhen, do you dare to say that you have no responsibility at all? Speak up if you have something to say, Ah Ci If you have anything you want to know, we will definitely tell you, and we can't keep it a secret anyway." Tan Lele tugged at her father's sleeve, telling him not to show his old temper, and there was no atmosphere of reunion after a long absence. She came with a very happy mood.

Even if Tan Mingsong doesn't give Lu Ci and Yunli face, he can't lose his manners in front of Lu Suyan. Although their family belongs to the conservative lineage, Lu Suyan doesn't care whether the head of the family is conservative or not. Respected by every member of the Lu family.

Lu Suyan seemed to know Tan Mingsong's character very well, and didn't mind at all, but Yunli's attitude surprised her a bit. Although his relationship with Lu Ci was not widely publicized, she knew it very well, as long as it was related to Lu Ci Yunli would never stand by and watch, just because he didn't say a word, it doesn't mean he really let go. If Tan Mingsong really provokes his nerves, not only will he have no good fruit to eat, but the Lu family will also have a hard time.

You must know that the biggest reason why Yunli agreed to go to the Wahuang Palace was to give Lu Ci the truth and let her meet Tan Mingsong's family who adopted her again. This is the condition of their cooperation. But it was a terrible thing, as can be seen from the results not long ago, Yun Li actually agreed to go, which shows Lu Ci's position in his heart.

"Uncle, Sister Lele, why are you two the only ones here? Is Aunt Ming still in good health, and Lu Sheng and the others are not here, don't they want to see me?" Lu Ci has a lot to say to them, Tan Mingsong She was already very happy to be here with Tan Lele, but she still couldn't help asking about other people's situation. After all, she grew up in this family and had no contact for so many years. She was very concerned about everyone's situation.

Tan Mingsong didn't want to talk, so Tan Lele pulled him to sit down, and explained to Lu Ci: "You know the situation of grandma, she is getting older, her legs and feet are not so good, and the crutches are no longer working, and now she has to sit when she goes out. She can only use a wheelchair, she has a very stubborn temper, she doesn't want to bother us to push it, so she stays at home all day arranging flowers and plants, or taking her treasures out to watch, we can't persuade her no matter what, as for Lu Sheng and the others, They bullied and squeezed you a lot in the past, but now you are not what you used to be, how dare they send you to your door to throw themselves into the trap, it is not clear that they are here to find you."

Hearing that Lu Ci was bullied before, Yun Li's eyebrows twitched, and then there was no more, and he continued to sit there and listen, taking a sip of the hot tea prepared by Lu Suyan from time to time. Lu Ci didn't really care about the past, so he replied Said: "It's good that her old man is in good health. If she is willing, I will find a chance to visit her in the future. She taught me a lot when I was young, and I haven't forgotten it until now."

"It's good if you have the heart. In fact, grandma also wants to come to see you, but we don't live in London. The humidity is very heavy recently, so we didn't let her come here. I will convey your kindness to her when I go back." Tan Lele explained.

Lu Ci nodded, and said, "And you, Sister Lele, came here even when you were pregnant with Liujia. Is the child's father your deskmate in middle school? I can't remember the name, but he liked to go to We ran around the house, saying we were doing homework, but in fact we wanted to chase you, and later we moved back to China, and he followed him regardless, and he was beaten several times by his uncle, but he didn't have a long memory."

Unknowingly, Lu Ci began to say the words "we". It can be seen that she still treats Tan Mingsong and the others as family members. Never forget half a point.

Tan Lele nodded with a smile, and said, "That's him. This is the second child. Our first child is almost two years old. He is a chubby naughty boy. He is just as stupid as he is, why is my dad Beating and scolding were useless, but in the end I agreed to him when I couldn't go on, this time he drove us here, and the person was outside, but he was not allowed to come in."

"That's great. I don't even know you're married and have children, but it's good to know that you're living a happy life." Lu Ci replied with a smile. In this family, she has the best relationship with Tan Lele. She was bullied by others when she was young. , it was this sister Lele who came out to uphold justice, but she went out to study and work later, and the chances for the two to meet became less and less. Since the incident happened a few years ago, they have never been in touch again.

"What's so good, if it wasn't for the rice, you said I could make that kid succeed? You also remember, people from our family don't make me do some indecent things, some people have the ability , but it’s hard to say what kind of character it is.” Talking about his son-in-law, Tan Mingsong didn’t give any affection, and reminded Lu Ci that he really had the posture of the head of the family, even when facing a legendary figure like Yunli, Also not at all polite.

"I know, uncle, when you adopted me, did you know that I was a child in that scientific research team? Did Mr. Mo tell you about me?" Lu Ci nodded to Tan Mingsong, it was rare that he was willing to speak. Speaking, she seized the opportunity to ask questions.

"Of course I know. Although our family was not involved in that incident, it would be difficult not to know about such a commotion. My father and father-in-law have been close friends with Mr. Mo for many years. I also studied with Mr. Mo when I was young. No matter how difficult the matter he told us, we will do it well." Tan Mingsong replied truthfully.

"This matter was quickly found out by the senior members of the Lu family, but at that time they didn't have a good way to arrange you, so they had to go on like this. I didn't know about this until I grew up. I'm really sorry for not telling you the truth. It is." Tan Lele added.

"It turns out that this is the case. I don't want to pursue the past. I just want to find out how I got here. I hope you can understand my feelings. If I am not the daughter of Mu Jun and Mu Ying, I am not with that scientific research team. I have a close relationship, I wonder if you are still willing to adopt me, or just treat me as a bargaining chip?" Since he came here with determination, Lu Ci asked the question he cared about.

Tan Lele couldn't answer this question. After hearing this, Tan Mingsong's face became a bit more serious. After thinking for a while, he still answered: "As I said just now, our family has a deep friendship with Mr. Mo. The matter he asked We will all do it well. If it weren't for the accident a few years ago, we will fulfill our promise to train you, at least until you graduate from university. This has nothing to do with your identity and background. Even if you are the head of the family, I I think my father and father-in-law will not agree."

Lu Ci was a little surprised by this answer, but she knew Tan Mingsong's character very well. He would not make up false words to comfort others. This should be the truth. She didn't know whether to be happy or sad, so she continued to ask : "Then what happened to you back then, everyone withdrew without saying a word, and no news was left behind. When I returned to Lu Town, only Aunt Chen was here. Later, it was rumored that you were involved The smuggling case, but Yunli checked and said that you were fighting internally, what is going on?"

The Aunt Chen mentioned by Lu Ci was the old lady Chen who was their nanny when they settled down in Lu Town. After dropping out of school and returning to Lu Town, she lived with this old lady Chen. Later, old lady Chen became seriously ill and passed away shortly after, leaving a large debt. Lu Ci worked around to pay for her and spent her entire life It was a very gloomy time, but it was also because of this that she met Yunli.

Seeing that Tan Mingsong didn't really want to answer this question, Tan Lele took a look at Lu Suyan, and then explained: "It's not accurate to say it's an internal struggle. You all know that the old Lu family was divided into two factions many years ago. I belong to the conservative faction, but there are actually many false rumors in the outside world. The two factions just have different ideas, and there is not much conflict. We were forced to go into exile because it was actually related to a business. , because it involves too much, I am inconvenient to say more, but this has nothing to do with you and that matter."

"It's not a big secret. In recent years, the Lu family's domestic business network has developed quite rapidly, which naturally attracted the attention of some people and organizations. Unfortunately, Uncle Tan and the others were caught and became rivals. The opportunistic opportunity for suppression is why that kind of thing happened, and the Lu family can't run amok everywhere, we have to admit that." Seeing Yun Li frowned, Lu Suyan quickly added.

"Actually, we didn't think about keeping you, but the situation was very sudden at that time, and you were studying far away in the north, and the family couldn't take care of it at all. Later, my father and the others intended to take you away, but the other party's forces We have been staring at each other to death, if we contact you again, it will only cause trouble for you. In the end, after discussing with everyone, it is better to cut off contact first. This is a safer way for you, but I didn't think of you afterwards. It's such a hard life." Tan Lele was still holding Lu Ci's hand, explaining to her in detail.

Lu Ci nodded to her, feeling a little agitated. She once wondered whether Tan Lele and the others had abandoned her, and whether she was left alone again, hiding in a dark corner and crying alone, waiting for the sun to rise and thinking about it again. There is no way to continue to live, because there is still such an unbroken hope in her heart. Now that she heard these words, even though she was relieved, she still couldn't help but feel the emotion in her heart rushing up.
