Oh no! His rural wife is sweeter than a peach!

Chapter 241 Child Stolen in the Middle of the Night

In the blink of an eye.

One night passed.

The day for paying respects to Grandma has arrived.

Lu Luozhi got up early to prepare the necessary offerings.

The shopkeeper in town who sells paper offerings also delivered what she wanted.

Her eldest granddaughter bought her a villa, sofa, computer, mobile phone, and washing machine; she had her boss make everything that was currently available to her.

She wanted her grandmother to be happy in the next world as well.

Grandma Lu's grave is on the back hill, where she is buried next to Grandpa Lu.

It takes a few minutes to walk from the house to the back of the mountain.

Ying Yuchuan, the grandson-in-law, naturally followed suit.

He solemnly burned paper money, lit three sticks of incense, and kowtowed three times in front of the grave of Grandpa Lu and his wife.

He said he would treat his siblings well from now on, so that the two elderly people could rest assured.

He said he would not let their eldest granddaughter down.

He said that if he couldn't do anything, they could hold him accountable.

As Lu Luozhi listened, her chest filled with emotion, and her reddened eyes could no longer leave this man who was cold on the outside but warm on the inside.

She had told Huang Maozi to gamble on fate, and when he chased after her relentlessly, she knew she had made the right bet.

Lu Ming also talked a lot with his grandparents.

One point he emphasized was that he was not a social outcast, and that he did very well on his exams.

The entire worship process was short.

Afterwards, those paper-made items were also engulfed by the flames.

Suddenly a gust of wind blew, and the flames and burning ashes swirled in the air.

Their grandparents seemed to have heard what they said.

It's as if it's saying, "Live well and don't think about them too much."

Longing will surely be answered.

When a person passes away, death is not the end, but rather that no one remembers them.

On the way back, Lu Luozhi took Ying Yuchuan to her parents' graves.

This was something he brought up himself.

He said that as a son-in-law, he wanted her parents to see him.

She also wanted to reassure her parents so they could entrust her to him.

His words and every action were sincere and without any perfunctory intent.

He also kowtowed three times to them.

Here, he was neither the high and mighty young master of the Ying family nor the president of a corporation. He was simply there as Lu Luozhi's husband to light three sticks of incense for her relatives and let them get to know him.

Lu Mingshi whispered in her ear, "Sister, he's a good man. You must hold on to him tightly and not let him get away."

Even he thought Ying Yuchuan was a good man.

She glanced at him and said, "How do you know I can let him get away?"

Lu Ming didn't say much, but cheerfully tidied up the things on the ground and went home.

He could set up a stall with her, he could humble himself to come after her, he could live with her in these poor places, and he didn't care about her background. How could she let him run away?

The misunderstanding from before is no longer important.

She smiled, took Ying Yuchuan's arm, and they went home together.

She will no longer be lonely; she will have someone to rely on.

---

Since it was to pay respects to her grandmother, Sheng Shuang and Ying Sangrou knew their place and did not follow.

They waited for them to come home.

At noon, with the help of the four of them, Lu Luozhi prepared a large table full of dishes.

The table was covered with all kinds of chicken, duck, fish, meat and shrimp.

They ate and chatted, and the atmosphere was even more harmonious than when they were at the Ying family's house.

During the journey, Sheng Shuang received a phone call.

"Sorry, Luozhi, I probably have to go back to Nancheng the day after tomorrow."

After hanging up the phone, she said apologetically to Lu Luozhi.

"A friend of mine is coming from Shenzhen. She donates a large sum of money to our foundation every year. This time she has a project to discuss with me, but she seems to be in a bad mood. I need to go back and keep her company."

"Is it Madam Pei?"

Ying Yuchuan vaguely guessed who it was from his mother's words.

Lan Ling, the wife of Shenzhen's richest man, is from a family with comparable wealth and power to the Ying family. Mrs. Pei has always been enthusiastic about various public welfare activities for women and children.

"Yes, it's her."

Sheng Shuang sighed.

"Her, to be honest, I feel a little sorry for her. Although she is very wealthy and lives a life of luxury, she has been depressed and unhappy for many years and has never been truly happy."

Why?

Lu Luozhi asked curiously as she ate her food.

Who isn't interested in gossip about wealthy families?

Besides, these kinds of gossips aren't something just anyone can easily hear, especially coming from someone like Ying Yuchuan's mother, a socially adept lady. They're bound to be earth-shattering.

She's not an outsider, so there's no harm in telling her.

Sheng Shuang explained to her, "She had a child when she was young, but sadly," she sighed, "that child disappeared when it was only half a month old."

"She kept searching and searching for more than 20 years. She has persisted in doing charity work all these years, firstly because she wanted to find her child through this method, and secondly because she wanted to accumulate some merit for that child so that the child could live a good life."

"She's a Buddhist, and a master told her that this would make the child's life better. But after all these years, and after spending so much time and money, we still haven't found even a trace of the child."

"Sometimes when I see her smile, which is more painful than crying, I feel terrible."

"We, as her friends, don't want to discourage her, but so many years have passed, and the child might be dead. If we were going to look for him, we should have found him long ago."

After speaking, she sighed deeply.

Even with a lot of money, there are times when you are powerless and helpless.

That lost child is a lifelong pain for Bluebell.

Lu Luozhi sighed upon hearing this.

"Is it really impossible to find that child?"

"Can't find it."

Sheng Shuang shook her head, "It's like she's vanished into thin air. Only she has been searching tirelessly all over the country and even abroad."

What a pitiful woman.

The child she finally gave birth to has disappeared.

"Then how did her child go missing?"

While listening intently to the deer's cry, she asked curiously, "How can such a tiny child not run away?"

At this point, Sheng Shuang clearly became somewhat angry.

"It was a woman who was sponsored by her family who took it away."

She emphasized, "That girl's family was poor. Her parents had five children, and she often didn't have enough to eat or wear. One day, she was rummaging through the trash can for food when Lanling saw her. She couldn't bear it and asked her family to sponsor her from junior high to university."

This woman would be fine if she were just well-behaved, but she's very jealous of Lanling, who was born a rich heiress and has so much love and attention. She often takes advantage of Lanling's kindness to achieve her own goals.

"However, she's also very good at playing the innocent, making it impossible for anyone to see through her scheming. That woman graduated from university and works at Lanling's family company. She kept pestering Lanling to let her live in one of her apartments."

Lanling was easily swayed, so they let her stay. At the time, Lanling was studying abroad. Two or three years later, after graduating, she returned and was preparing to marry her fiancé, Pei Cong. However, this woman took a liking to Pei Cong and repeatedly tried to seduce him, even going so far as to strip naked and wait for him in bed on several occasions.

"When Lanling found out, she couldn't stand it and told her to get out of her house and quit her job at her family's company. After Lanling got married, she tried all sorts of tricks to seduce Pei Cong into having an affair, but luckily he didn't fall for it."

"Because the woman was blacklisted by the entire industry and couldn't find a decent job, she moved back to her home in the slums. She harbored a lot of resentment."

After learning that Lanling had given birth and was staying at a postpartum care center, she bribed the staff there. One night, when no one was looking, she secretly stole the two-week-old baby.
