Surprise! The rough husband is the hidden boss of the period literature

Chapter 371 Is the Lu family very rich?

This is so interesting.

Xu Qing watched the spectacle with great delight.

Lu Mingqiu must have come for her; now the two cousins ​​are at odds.

Liu Qidong dared not push Lu Nianying any further. Firstly, she was actually pregnant, and secondly, he recognized Lu Nianying's identity. As an outsider, he shouldn't interfere in the Lu family's affairs.

He helped Lu Mingqiu up. There was a hole in the back of his head, from which blood was gushing out. Liu Qidong was very worried. "Xu Zhiqing, can you help take a look?"

Having witnessed Xu Qinghuan's love of money, he added, "As long as Comrade Lu's life can be saved, any amount of money is acceptable."

Xu Qinghuan glanced at him, squatted down beside him, took a silver needle and inserted it into an acupoint on Lu Mingqiu's head, stopping the bleeding on the spot. "Take him to the sanitation station, this wound needs to be cleaned and bandaged."

"Don't let her get medical treatment!" Lu Nianying said angrily, "She deserves it, she deserves to die."

Xu Qinghuan was somewhat curious, "If she dies, will you be able to live?"

"If you can't live, you can't live. It's not like anyone cares about living." Lu Nianying gave a self-deprecating laugh and blocked Liu Qidong's path.

Liu Qidong said, "Comrade Lu, your grandfather and grandmother have always thought of you."

“Think about me?” Lu Nianying was a little crazy. “They would think about me? I’m not their own granddaughter, why would they think about me? Aren’t they thinking about Lu Mingqiu?”
Even a lackey of the Lu family like you knows to protect his young master, so why didn't you say you were protecting me just now?

Liu Qidong's pride was wounded, and his face turned ugly. "Comrade Lu, I...didn't recognize you just now."

This was like a knife to Lu Nianying's back; she was supposed to be just as glamorous as Lu Mingqiu.

Liu Qidong was someone Old Master Lu was used to employing. He frequently visited the Lu family and could be said to have watched her and Lu Mingqiu grow up. Yet, he said he didn't recognize her.

"I was sent to the countryside by this slut. Did Grandpa and Grandma punish her?" Lu Nianying asked, her face covered in tears, pointing at Lu Mingqiu. "No, right? Why would they punish their own granddaughter for someone like me who is living under someone else's roof?"
"I'm just someone Lu Mingqiu used to abuse. And he dares to say he cares about me? If he cared, would he abandon me and leave me in the countryside?"

Lu Nianying roared; she had completely gone mad.

Seeing that she was in a bad mood, Liu Qidong was about to explain when he saw her rushing towards Lu Mingqiu again. It was obvious that she didn't want him and Lu Mingqiu to live well. Liu Qidong was shocked and ran away.

Lu Nianying ran a few steps, then her stomach started to hurt. Clutching her stomach, a feeling of helplessness, despair, and self-loathing welled up inside her, like sharp knives ripping at her heart.

She looked up and saw Xu Qinghuan. "Xu Qinghuan, are you happy to see me like this? You deserve a lot of credit for me ending up in this state!"

Xu Qinghuan smiled and said, "Really? I think you brought this on yourself. The Lu family has been very kind to you. No matter how bad they were, they raised you and didn't let you wander around like those stray cats and dogs. You should be grateful."

"You think you can compare to Lu Mingqiu? Lu Mingqiu is the legitimate daughter of the Lu family. Her mother is your uncle's lawfully wedded wife. What are you? You're an illegitimate child. Why should she call you her sister? Isn't it right for her to send you to the countryside?"

Xu Qinghuan glanced at her sideways, "You have no self-awareness at all, you deserve to become a laughing stock!"

After saying that, she lifted her feet and left.

Behind them, Lu Nianying screamed, "Ah!"

She shouted at Xu Qinghuan's retreating figure, "It's not just me who lacks self-awareness; Song Wanlin is the same." She thought that using Song Wanlin would sting Xu Qinghuan, but it didn't.

Lu Mingqiu suffered a mild concussion and was still a little dizzy after waking up, but she saw Xu Qinghuan clearly and remembered her mission. "Xu Qinghuan, can you listen to me for a few words?"

In Xu Qinghuan's eyes, this person was somewhat different from the Lu family, but not by much.

She laughed and said, "You just woke up, your head must be spinning. Don't you need to rest for a bit?"

“The situation is critical, and I’m afraid it will delay my brother’s treatment.” As soon as she spoke, tears rolled down her cheeks. “Mingxu was raised by me since he was a child. He is very attached to me. In this world, he is the closest family member to me.”

If Xu Qinghuan hadn't read the book, she might have believed these words, but she knew that when Song Wanlin was in the Lu family, she doted on Lu Mingxu, treating him like a little tyrant.

Lu Mingqiu might treat Lu Mingxu very well, but only to cooperate with Song Wanlin in putting on a good show of maternal love and filial piety, and sisterly affection and brotherly respect.

"Then you must understand, that's your brother, not my brother, and certainly not my closest relative in this world." After saying that, Xu Qinghuan got up to leave.

Liu Qidong blocked the doorway, saying, "Xu Zhiqing, please let Comrade Lu finish speaking. This is the least you can do to show respect."

A hand like an iron clamp gripped Liu Qidong's shoulder from behind. Liu Qidong mustered all his strength, but it was too late. With a gentle push, he was shoved aside.

Liu Qidong stumbled and grabbed the wall to avoid falling.

"Go back?"

Hearing the voice that had echoed in her mind countless times, Lu Mingqiu shuddered. She couldn't help but look up and see that figure as solid as an iron wall. Just like in her memory, the person was standing beside Xu Qinghuan in a protective posture.

Xu Qinghuan felt that burning gaze. She knew what was going on, smiled, and tiptoed to kiss Jiang Xingye on the corner of his lips. "You got into a fight again?"

Jiang Xingye was flattered. Even though he knew there were people in the room, he couldn't help but pinch Xu Qinghuan's chin and gently bite her lip. His voice was hoarse as he asked, "Shall we go back?"

"Xu Zhiqing, is my injury alright?" Lu Mingqiu asked, sitting up. "Don't you need to stay here and watch over me?"

She raised her hand to her forehead, but her gaze involuntarily fell on Jiang Xingye.

He seemed taller and more muscular than he had been a few months ago, and her heart was pounding; she felt terrible.

Xu Qinghuan gave her a half-smile, "Since you can get up, pay the medical bills and go out first. Just come back tomorrow to change the dressing."

Lu Mingqiu was stunned for a moment. She didn't want to be kicked out. "Xu Zhiqing, we don't know anyone here. We'll be staying here for another two days. Can we ask you for lodging? It's two yuan per person per night, is that okay?"

"Live here? No way, this is a sanitation station, not my home."

"No, is it okay if I stay at your place?"

Xu Qinghuan laughed and said, "Do you think I'm so poor that I have to rent a place to make money? Besides, I rented it to you for one night, and you reported me the next day. Who am I supposed to complain to?"

Xu Qinghuan shook the first-aid kit in her hand. "Is the Lu family very rich? How rich? As rich as I am?"

Happy reading, my dears!
