Chapter 76 -76: You Will Be Captured Too
“And this house, it’s still in your names. I never cared, and I even said to Yushu, maybe you also wanted to be safe, worrying that if the house were in my name, then we wouldn’t respect you anymore,” Lu Zhenguo said. “Actually, Yushu and I never cared whether it was in your name or ours. The ownership wouldn’t make us disrespect you.”
“Fair? There’s never been fairness between me and Lu Zhenjia,” Lu Zhenguo said sarcastically with disappointment. “I knew that before, but I thought you were my parents, and I should respect you.”
“But from the other day when you wanted to marry off Youxi, who got into Jing University, to Foolish Hu, up to today when Lu Zhenjia actually wanted to ruin Youxi, I finally realized, I regarded you as parents, as family, yet you never considered me your son, a member of the family, let alone Youxi!” Lu Zhenguo argued. “In your eyes, Youxi is just a tool for making money. You don’t care about her life or death at all. Even if she dies, as long as you can use her death to get some money, you wouldn’t bat an eye.”
“As for whether or not I still want this house?” Lu Zhenguo sneered. “It’s yours, give it to me if you will, if not, forget it.”
“You admit the house is ours,” Old Madam Lu screeched, her demeanor like dealing with an enemy, nothing like facing an honest and respectful son who had dutifully cared for them for decades. “You still have the gall to stand in our house and drive us out? This is ours!”
“We’ve paid the rent,” Lu Youxi interjected. “Before the rent expires, this place is our home, and you have no right to evict us. On the contrary, you have no right to barge into our home. I could even call the police.”
“Aren’t you leaving yet?” Lu Zhenguo was also annoyed.
Thinking of Lu Youxi’s ordeal, he now just wanted to see if Lu Youxi was still alright.
He had no intention of arguing with Ge Guifen and the others.
“The village chief is here, the village chief has arrived!” someone shouted.
The village chief arrived drenched in sweat, his shirt soaked through, wiping his brow and gasping for breath.
On the way here, he had already heard what happened and was cursing the Lu Family’s elders and the couple Lu Zhenjia for stirring up such trouble.
“Have you had enough?!” the village chief bellowed as he entered.

Ge Guifen quickly complained to the village chief, “Chief, you have to talk some sense into them. Their family is out of line!”
“Lu Youxi even got her own uncle thrown in jail, is this the behavior of normal people?” Ge Guifen cried. “Moreover, Lu Zhenguo disowned his own parents, wanting us to leave and to sever ties with us!”
“Their family does need to be dealt with!” Old Master Lu also said to the village chief.
The village chief was amused by their outrage, “I was talking to you!”
“Don’t you think you’ve gone too far?” the village chief said disapprovingly.
“We…” Ge Guifen hadn’t expected that the village chief would be scolding them.
Old Madam Lu, eyeing the situation, said, “Chief, this is our family’s private affair, are you going to meddle too?”
“I won’t interfere with your private affairs, but Lu Zhenjia has committed a crime and has been arrested by the police. No one can help you!” the village chief stated. “Do you intend to obstruct justice? If so, you will also be arrested!”
“That… that can’t be that serious…” Old Madam Lu didn’t believe it, though her tone was less confident.
The village chief laughed in dismay, “If you don’t trust me, and you don’t trust Youxi, go ask Lu Youbang!”
“Or else, I’ll get you a lawyer for legal advice, go and ask the lawyer!” the village chief said loudly.
“Also, I heard what you said just now. Youxi is right, you rented this house to Lu Zhenguo and his family. I, and all these villagers outside, can witness it, and Youxi even had you sign a lease contract,” the village chief explained. “Before the lease expires, this is the place of Lu Zhenguo’s family, and without their permission, you cannot force your way in!”
“Now that you’ve split up, stop causing trouble here. Have you no shame?” the village chief said irritably.
With the village chief mentioning the risk of being arrested for making more trouble, Ge Guifen and the others no longer dared to make a fuss.
The village chief took the opportunity to say, “Though it’s hot, you being soaked isn’t comfortable, and there’s a risk of getting sick. Better go home and get cleaned up.”
Without any choice, the four of them had to leave.
Moreover, their clothes were dripping, and they didn’t even know what the water was used for, which was a revolting thought.
They could only go home first and think of another plan.
Seeing them go, the village chief also sighed. Having such a family in the village was indeed exhausting.
“Chief, thank you very much,” Lu Zhenguo hurriedly said.
The village chief waved his hand, “Youxi has truly suffered an injustice, such a plight to befall on someone with an uncle and grandparents like them. Even a stranger like me is fuming, let alone Youxi.”
“Fortunately, Youxi is going to study in the Imperial Capital and won’t have to deal with them anymore,” the village chief sighed and said to Lu Zhenguo, “I shouldn’t be the one to tell you this, but I can’t help but to speak my mind. Today, you stood firmly by Youxi’s side, not softening because of blind and foolish filial piety. I support what you did. In the future, you also should not soften towards them. It’s because you’ve always been soft-hearted and too honest that they’ve become more and more presumptuous.”
“Your wife and children are all good; don’t make a mistake and hurt them!” the village chief warned.
Lu Zhenguo’s face flushed with embarrassment.
Especially after what happened today, thinking back on his own past actions, he felt too ashamed to face his wife and children.
“Didn’t Youxi mention that once things are settled, she’ll take you to the city?” the village chief said. “You should do it soon to avoid being tangled up with them here while Youxi is studying in the Imperial Capital.”
“Chief, don’t worry, I will handle everything as quickly as I can and fetch my parents and Youxue over,” Lu Youxi said.
“Ah! Life in the big city isn’t easy, especially since you have to study and can’t make money. I was only suggesting, don’t feel pressured,” the village chief added, thinking to himself that he might have spoken too harshly. Lu Youxi was a student just going to the Imperial Capital, being able to take care of herself was already commendable. Everything there was expensive; it couldn’t be so easy to bring the whole family over so swiftly.
“Youxi, are you okay? You’re not hurt, are you?” the village chief asked again.
“I’m fine. This time, thanks to Xu Mai, he anticipated it early and prevented Lu Zhenjia’s plans from succeeding,” Lu Youxi said with a smile.
