Forty-Eight. Help Me Beat Him

Uncle Lu happily explained that it was two juniors who came to see him.

The old man looked at Zheng Shan and Li Yuan, who were busy at work, looked at the cigarette that Zheng Shan handed over just now, smashed it and said, "Yes, better than your daughter and son-in-law."

Uncle Lu's expression didn't change, he just laughed at himself, the old man said two more words when he saw this, and then left.

Zheng Shan and Li Yuan tidied up a little, and seeing that it was getting late, they started to prepare lunch.

Fortunately, they brought some meat this time. As for some vegetables, there are some vegetables in Uncle Lu's small vegetable garden.

At this time, it is still very good to give meat as a gift.

Li Yuan's cooking skills are not bad, so I leave it to him.

There is an open-air stove not far from the door, which is a soil stove with a small iron pot on it. The inside of the iron pot is rusted. Zheng Shan washed it several times before cleaning it.

"Give me a cigarette." Uncle Lu said suddenly looking at the busyness of the two of them.

Zheng Shan looked at Uncle Lu's body, which was still coughing from time to time, and said with a smile, "Are you still smoking when you're like this? Forget it, I'll talk about it when you're healthy."

Uncle Lu said with a stern expression: "What? You just said you invited me to eat, but now you can't even give up a cigarette?"

Zheng Shan looked at Uncle Lu's eyes, and finally took out a cigarette and helped to light it, while exhorting: "Be careful smoking, don't smoke too fierce."

"It's just you." Uncle Lu muttered in dissatisfaction, but there was no displeasure in his eyes.

After taking two sips, Uncle Lu said, "I guess you can guess it too."

"What?" Zheng Shan pretended to be at a loss. As for Li Yuan, he pretended he didn't hear it and was busy cutting vegetables with his head down.

Uncle Lu pointed at Zheng Shan and scolded with a smile: "You kid is still pretending in front of me."

After finishing speaking, he fell silent again, and immediately said: "Forget it, I'd better talk about it, otherwise I will always hold it in my heart, and no one will vent it, and it will be uncomfortable to panic."

Immediately, Uncle Lu told what happened to him in the past few years.

In fact, it was very simple. The eldest daughter and son-in-law came over and said they would take care of him.

There was no one else around Mr. Lu, his wife left early, his youngest daughter was married far away, and he had no son, so he readily agreed.

The house was sold, and the money was directly given to the daughter and son-in-law.

But I didn't expect that after the daughter and son-in-law got the money, it changed. At the beginning, they were served with delicious food and drink.

However, in less than half a year, the attitude became worse and worse, and the son-in-law was a lazy person, so not only did he eat and drink worse, but he also had to help his son-in-law from time to time to earn work points.

After that, it became the norm. He had to work for his son-in-law, otherwise he probably wouldn't even eat.

That is to say, in the past six months, Uncle Lu's health has been getting worse and worse, and he can't do it anymore, so he can rest at home.

But that's all, the daughter and son-in-law only occasionally come over to give some food.

Although Uncle Lu said it very plainly, he seemed to have taken it off, but Zheng Shan could feel the resentment and grievance in Uncle Lu's heart.

Zheng Shan could not help clenching his fists, took a deep breath, and asked, "Don't you still have a pension, sir?"

This is something that Zheng Shan can't understand. It is clear that Uncle Lu has a pension. It stands to reason that even if he doesn't talk about family affection, he should take good care of Uncle Lu for the sake of pension and let him work for a few more years. Ah, take a few more years of retirement.

Uncle Lu sarcastically said, "There are many short-sighted people in the world."

Zheng Shan stopped talking, and at this moment, several people suddenly came over.

Zheng Shan glanced at it and saw a man, a woman, and two children.

"Dad, I heard that two of your juniors came to see you, who are these two?" the man said with a smile.

Zheng Shan looked at the man, but did not speak.

Uncle Lu said with an ugly face: "What are you doing here?"

"Dad, aren't we here to see you and see what you are missing?" the woman also said.

The man was even more direct and walked directly into the house. When he saw the gifts brought by Zheng Shan, his eyes lit up.

"Dad, I'll bring these things back for you, save them from being stolen here." The man was rude.

At the same time, he also said, "I'll go get some bowls and chopsticks."

Li Yuan went up to stop him, but saw Zheng Shan shaking his head.

At this time, Uncle Lu just watched his movements quietly, and didn't stop him, he just said lightly: "Take it back for you, it might as well be stolen."

"Dad, what did you say, Libing is your son-in-law anyway." The woman was unhappy.

"Hehe, son-in-law?" Uncle Lu said disdainfully, and at the same time his eyes were full of disappointment when he looked at the woman, which soon became dull.

Uncle Lu asked himself that he had never treated his daughter badly. It was like this since he was a child. When his daughter got married and the younger daughter was too far away, he also helped him from time to time.

But in exchange for such a result, how could Uncle Lu not be disappointed.

When Li Yuan finished the meal, the man just brought some tableware and chopsticks over, "Hurry up and take the things, I'm exhausted."

The woman hurried over to hear the words and began to visit the tableware.

The man shook his hand, looked at the cigarette Zheng Shan was smoking, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he came over to talk to Zheng Shan.

"What kind of cigarette is this, brother? Why haven't I seen it?"

Zheng Shan didn't even look at him, just smoked his own cigarette, and didn't mean to share it with him.

The man was a little unhappy, but since Zheng Shan brought so many gifts today, he still didn't say anything.

It was even more incredible when eating. Zheng Shan and Li Yuan couldn't move their chopsticks at all. Men, daughters, and children were not polite at all, and they swept the food on the table very quickly.

In the past two years, they have rarely eaten such a sumptuous meal.

As for the money from the sale of Uncle Lu's house, they had already squandered it all. If it wasn't for Uncle Lu's pension, their family would have run out of food.

Uncle Lu didn't eat either, just watched them eat like this.

Zheng Shan and Li Yuan simply stopped eating, and Li Yuan clenched his fists, but Zheng Shan stopped him.

No matter what, this is Uncle Lu's daughter and son-in-law. If you don't give them face, you have to give Uncle Lu's face.

"Yo, the leprechaun ate so well today, and is here to spoil your father-in-law again?" Someone passed by, smelled the meat, saw the sumptuous meal on the table, and laughed and laughed.

The man only made a cold voice when he heard the words, but did not speak.

After the two children finished eating and ran away, they didn't say a word to their grandfather. At this time, Uncle Lu suddenly spoke up, and Zheng Shan was stunned by what he said.

"Dashan, Dayuan, I remember that you were good at fighting before, didn't you?" Master Lu suddenly asked.

Zheng Shan was stunned for a while, but Li Yuan replied immediately: "Of course, you have seen our record back then."

"Hehe, the uncle asks you one thing today." Uncle Lu said calmly.

Zheng Shan seemed to have guessed something, and Li Yuan patted his chest and said, "Speak, sir."

"Help me beat him hard." Master Lu said word by word, staring at his son-in-law.
