Volume 2: Earthly Experience Chapter 95: The Lu Family
Lu Xiao actually knew something about Wang Bing's affairs.
He also knew the real purpose of Wang Ai coming to personally celebrate Lu Ci's birthday. This matter had already spread to the Lu family on a small scale.
Originally, Lu Xiao thought that Wang was just an ordinary son of a wealthy family, but now seeing this...
This Wang Bing is a little different from the rumors. It seems that they have underestimated Wang Ai's most beloved descendant.
At this moment, on a hill not far away.
Lu Ci naturally noticed the strangeness in front of the village. He looked at Wang Bing with a slight smile on his face, "This kid is quite interesting!"
"Father……"
At this time, an old man with a cane came forward and said respectfully: "Xiao has brought the old master Wang into the village, you see..."
"Yeah, I got it!"
Lu Ci nodded slightly, turned around and walked down the mountain along the stone steps.
As the head of the Lu family, one of the four families, he still has to receive the head of the Wang family. This is a matter of etiquette.
Wang Ai's arrival attracted many young people in Lujia Village.
You know, this is the first time in recent years that an outsider has come to celebrate Lu Ci's birthday.
Didn’t you hear Lu Xiao say that he and Wang Ai haven’t seen each other for more than 20 years!
Lujia Village, in the main hall of the family.
"Haha, Old Lu! I'm here to celebrate your birthday!" Wang Ai said with a smile after seeing Lu Ci in the main hall.
"snort!"
Lu Ci snorted softly, "Every time you see me, it's always bad news! What are you planning to do this time?"
"Haha, Lao Lu! What you said is really hurtful. Today is your good day, I won't bother with you!"
Under Lu Xiao's guidance, Wang Ai sat on the chair next to Lu Ci. As for Wang Bing...
Everyone at this occasion was an elder, so he had no right to sit down, and so he naturally stood behind Wang Ai.
After Lu Ci had someone bring up some tea, he picked up the cup in front of him, rubbed the cup lid against the wall and said, "Originally I wasn't going to host it, but you made such a fuss that I had to make such a big scene!"
"Haha, isn't it better to have some fun?"
Wang Ai continued to smile and said, "I came to you for something, and I thought I could take advantage of your happiness to get this done. This would also be a wish of mine!"
"Oh, what is it?"
Lu Ci asked knowingly, "You know it's my birthday today, so don't tell me about the circle. I don't want to know, and I don't want to care!"
"Hey~ It's so unlucky to talk about things in the circle at this time. I came to you this time to talk about things between your children and grandchildren..."
…
In Lujia Village, because of Lu Ci's birthday, many affiliated forces of the Lu family came to congratulate him.
The elders in the family, such as Lu Zhong, Lu Xiao, Lu Ping and others were all busy running around. After all, they were guests from far away, and their Lu family was a wealthy family after all, so they had to observe the etiquette.
On the contrary, the younger generations seem to have nothing to do.
"Huan'er!"
At this time, a young man with short hair was knocking on a door, but there was no response after knocking for a long time.
"Lü Gong, stop knocking! You know Huan'er's temper. If she doesn't want to see anyone, no one can see her!"
At this time, a young man wearing round-frame glasses stood behind him, looking nonchalant.
"Lü Liang, is this the time to make sarcastic remarks ? Grandpa has told me that today is Grandpa's birthday banquet, Huan'er, you can't be absent."
The person who spoke was Lu Gong. He frowned and said impatiently, "Really? You and Huan'er, you two troublemakers had to make trouble today. Do you really want to make Grandpa look bad in public?"
"Hey, hey, hey! Lu Gong, what you said is too much!"
Lu Liang's originally lazy expression suddenly became serious, "I just did what you said, what else do you want me to do? Besides, Huan'er has Aunt Feng to supervise her, why do you care!"
"you……"
After being retorted by Lu Liang, Lu Gong glared at Lu Liang with a bad look, then turned around to look at Lu Huan's room, and strode away without saying anything.
After watching Lü Gong leave, Lü Liang put his hands on his chest, leaned against the wall at Lü Huan's door, and said softly: "Okay, he's gone! Come out!"
squeak!
The door of Lu Huan's room opened a crack, and a pair of eyes appeared from inside. They looked around for a long time before slowly opening the door.
"Really gone?"
“Let’s go!”
Lü Liang looked at the girl in front of him with pigtails and pink sportswear in silence and said, "I wonder if you really need to do this... I noticed that you've been avoiding Lü Gong lately. Is there something you're hiding?"
"I don't know. I always feel like he looks at me strangely, ever since I told him about the Soul Enlightenment Technique..."
As she spoke, Lu Huan's voice became lower and lower, and in the end it was almost impossible to hear what she was mumbling.
"Really?"
Lu Liang thought for a while and waved his hands, saying, "Forget it, forget it. I can't figure it out. You've been feeling depressed lately. Don't hold it in and get sick... Oh, change your clothes. You'll be attending Grandpa's birthday banquet later. Don't be late. Otherwise, there will be gossips from the eldest house! Aunt Feng won't look good then!"
"knew……"
Lu Huan rolled his eyes, and suddenly seemed to think of something and asked, "Are people from the Wang family here too?"
"Ah, here I come! Any problem?"
Lü Liang was talking halfway when he suddenly seemed to remember something and said with a sly smile: "Oh~ I didn't expect it to be so obvious, Lü Huan! I didn't expect you to start to have such devious ideas..."
At this point, he came forward and said, "I'm telling you, don't have too many illusions. The one from the Wang family looks ordinary, and he has squinty eyes..."
"roll!"
Lu Huan's cheeks turned red, he kicked Lu Liang hard, turned back into the house and slammed the door shut!
“Ouch!”
After being kicked unexpectedly, Lu Liang felt a burning pain in his thigh .
He gritted his teeth and said, "Really? I was kind enough to help you gather information, but you didn't thank me, and you kicked me! I guess I should just change my name to Lu Dongbin!"
"roll!!!"
The next moment, Lu Huan's roar was heard from the house. Seeing this, Lu Liang trotted away from Lu Huan's door.
Inside the room, after seeing Lv Liang leave, Lv Huan also fell on the bed and sighed, muttering to himself: "Alas, sometimes I really envy Lv Liang's heartless look. If only I could be so casual..."
…
Soon it was noon, and the originally relatively deserted Lujia Village was exceptionally lively today.
At the main table, besides Wang Ai, Lu Ci and others, those sitting there were also prominent figures from the Southwest region.
The second-class seats were occupied by people of Lu Zhong and Lu Xiao's generation, while the third-class seats were occupied by fathers like Lu Ping and Lu Feng.
The last seats were occupied by younger people like Wang Bing.
It can be seen that the Lu family is a family with extremely strict class systems.
You have to know that the strict class system of the Lu family is different from the strict family rules of the Lu family, because it can be seen with the naked eye that the seats of the Lu family's strange people are relatively forward.
The status of those ordinary tribesmen who are unable to awaken their Qi sense is obviously inferior to their peers, and there is even a sense of contempt among them.
This situation is extremely common in large families, including their Wang family.
This contradiction is unavoidable!
It's just that the Wang family advocates that everyone should do their own job. If you are an extraordinary person, you should do extraordinary things. If you are an ordinary person, you should do what ordinary people should do. It seems that everyone is doing their own thing.
The Wang family has been instilled with a concept since childhood, that is Wang Ai’s famous "Money Fist Theory"!
The extraordinary people in the Wang family also know that they cannot do without the economic support of ordinary people; ordinary people in the Wang family also understand that if they want to become bigger and stronger, they cannot do without the support of the extraordinary people group behind them.
The Lu family is a family with a strong family tradition. No matter whether you are an extraordinary person or an ordinary person, you must abide by the family rules.
So this is also the reason why the Lu family members are very straightforward whether they are in the circle or in the society of ordinary people .
As for the Gao family...
The Gao family is too low-key, so low-key that if Gao Lian was not the current head of the Northeast region, many people in the circle would have almost forgotten about them.
On the other hand, the Lu family...
After all, Wang Bing had followed Wang Ai for a long time and had some opinions of his own. He felt that if Lu Ci continued to manage the family, the Lu family would sooner or later face internal strife.
To put it bluntly, a hundred years after Lu Ci's death, the Lu family, this big tree, might fall apart due to internal strife.
Let’s not talk about anything else, just look at the sons-in-law in their family. They are extraordinary people after all, but their status is not as good as the younger generations of the Lu family. If it were you, would you not be angry?
The continuous accumulation of various contradictions will eventually explode one day.
