Chapter 1086 Such a Huge Change!
Mrs. Lu entered the room and asked her husband worriedly: "What... happened to fifth brother?"
"It's just a trivial matter." Fu Hongda said a few words about the accident on the bridge, put his hand on Lu's shoulder, and said, "Hongtian made such a fuss, and he didn't even think about how I, an uncle, would care about a child. "
Mrs. Lu was right when she heard it, but then she thought that Fu Ziru had almost fallen into the water, so she hurriedly pulled her daughter to look around and check again and again.
Fu Ziru looked at her father nervously, hesitated for a long time, and finally plucked up the courage to whisper to her mother: "Mom, it's because I didn't pay attention to my steps that something almost happened. It has nothing to do with anyone else or Zhu'er. Can you, Spare Zhu'er?"
Zhu'er is Fu Ziru's personal maid. She grew up with Fu Ziru. Mrs. Lu was puzzled: "What happened to Zhu'er?"
Fu Ziru bit her lips, looked at her father, and said, "Father scolded Zhuer Banzi..."
Mr. Lu immediately looked at Fu Hongda.
Fu Hongda frowned and looked at Fu Ziru's expression accusingly: "Have you learned how to sue your father to your mother?"
Fu Ziru lowered his head in fear, and held his mother's clothes tighter.
Mrs. Lu stood up, covered the back of Fu Hongda's generous hand with her soft hand, and said softly: "Even if Zhu'er girl is not good at protecting her master, she is still young, so how can she really punish her? If this beating continues, What should I do if it kills me? Ziru will die of grief?"
Fu Hongda was obviously not satisfied with his wife's plea, but when he saw his soft eyes and his daughter's timid gaze, he finally softened his tone and said, "I won't do this again."
Mrs. Lu immediately smiled and patted her daughter on the head: "Why don't you thank your father?"
"Thank you, father." Fu Ziru said excitedly, and hurried outside, obviously going to pick up Zhu'er.
Fu Hongda looked at his daughter's jumping back and scolded Mrs. Lu: "A woman's benevolence will never become a great thing. Ziru is still young, so she can be arrogant at this time, but she will eventually grow up. What you should teach should also be taught.”
Mrs. Lu nodded in agreement.
At this time, they were the only two people in the room. Mrs. Lu couldn't help but think of what Mr. Tan had just said: "I heard that the old man is really dying this time. Can't he wake up?"
"Did the third sister-in-law tell you?" Fu Hongda squinted his eyes and said in a cold tone: "The third sister-in-law talks too much and tells you everything. What do you mean you can't wake up? It's just that you got angry before. , this time when I was tired, I got tired. The doctor said, just take a good rest and don’t pay attention to those rumors."
"But..." Mrs. Lu's elegant face was full of anxiety, "But if the old man can wake up, why would he entrust the power of the family to you? What is the power of the family? It is the facade of a mansion. , even if it is not given to the eldest and second brothers, it is okay to give it to the old lady temporarily. How can I give it to you? When the third sister-in-law told me, I was frightened. If this is true, in the future, when we are here to build a house, we will still Can you stay here?"
Fu Hongda looked at Mr. Lu quietly. Under his calm gaze, his pupils shrank slightly: "If you leave it to me, will you lose the Fu family's reputation? Is this what you think?"
Mrs. Lu hurriedly took his hand and explained carefully: "The power of running the family has always been given to the direct descendants and not to the concubines. If it were given to you, it would not be a loss of appearance, but it would be really against the rules. It would make people poke their spines. You have to be taught in the ancestral hall of your ancestors. Sir, let’s live a peaceful life and don’t get involved in those messy things, and don’t let others pour dirty water on you, okay?”
Fu Hongda said nothing and had no expression on his face. He returned to the bedroom, took out his clothes from the cabinet and started to change.
Mrs. Lu knew that her husband was angry.
Fu Hongda went out without telling Mr. Lu where he was going, let alone when he would be back.
Mrs. Lu felt anxious in her heart, and at the same time she thought, should she go find the third sister-in-law and discuss it with the third sister-in-law? But the third sister-in-law seems to have only a partial understanding of this matter. The third brother is not a person who tells the third sister-in-law everything. Besides, there are more concubines in the third bedroom than in the fifth bedroom. The third sister-in-law is not living a satisfactory life in the room. If you go to ask like this again, it will inevitably make it difficult for the other party.
Therefore, Mrs. Lu endured it and just wanted to wait until her husband came back and then give her some advice.
When Fu Hongda came back, it was already the afternoon of the second day. At the same time, everyone in Fu Mansion knew overnight that the old man was seriously ill and handed over the power of the family to his fourth son, Fu Hong. The matter of reaching.
Mr. Lu was so frightened that he was trembling from the moment he got up. Until noon, Mrs. Tan came over and said, "Your third brother smashed a lot of things in the room. He also said that he wanted to find the clan leader to remove Hongda from the clan and drive him out of the clan." Mansion."
Mrs. Lu's heart almost jumped out of her chest when she heard this. She touched her chest and her eyes were red: "Third sister-in-law, you have to beg for mercy! Even if the old man really gives the power of running the family to Hongda, it is still the old man's decision. Hongda has no idea. I really can’t blame him for not being able to make the decision.”
Tan sighed: "My good sister, the old man has been unconscious for several days. Where is the order? Your Hongda is putting the old man under house arrest and seizing power!"
"No, no, no." Mrs. Lu refused to accept this argument. "It's absolutely impossible. Hongda is not such a person. I have been married to him for many years. I know him well. There is no way he would do such disloyalty." Something unfilial.”
Tan stayed in the fourth room all day, firstly to accompany Lu, because she was afraid that the second room in the second room would come and cause trouble, and secondly, she wanted to wait for Fu Hongda and ask clearly what was going on.
Fu Hongda came back from Shen Shi. As soon as he entered the courtyard, Mr. Lu and Ms. Tan walked out together. They were about to ask, but they were frightened by a series of people behind Fu Hongda.
Fu Hongda politely called Mr. Tan, "Third sister-in-law." Then he told the servants behind him, "Go and clean up."
The servants bowed down and answered, and entered each room in twos and threes, moving things and sorting things.
Mrs. Lu felt frightened and asked Fu Hongda: "This is..."
Fu Hongda did not return to Lu's family, but just looked at Tan's family and said, "It's getting late. Third sister-in-law should go back."
Tan didn't leave, but immediately asked: "I heard that the old man has appointed someone to take charge of the house..."
"Third sister-in-law, go back." Fu Hongda interrupted, with a sarcastic look on his face: "What you want to know, third brother will tell you."
Tan frowned, remembering that Fu Hongda had never been so rude to her.
Seeing that the atmosphere was not good, Mrs. Lu quickly said, "Ms. sir, the third sister-in-law also has good intentions..."
Fu Hongda said nothing, his cold eyes glanced back and forth between Mr. Lu and Mr. Tan, then he raised his hand and gave silent instructions to the back.
Several maids and maids immediately swarmed up to her and said, "Slaves, please send the third lady back to her room." Then they held Tan Shi up and escorted her out of the courtyard.
Tan was stunned by this move.
Mrs. Lu was also frightened: "Ms. sir, what are you doing!"
