Lu Tiantian smiled like a flower. She was very close to Xia Yao. In just a short period of time, she had completely trusted Xia Yao. Lu Changbai stood beside Lu Jing, watching this scene with a sour heart.
He knew that the bad woman had changed for the better, but... the person being kissed was not him, so was he so disliked?
Lu Changbai lowered his head and grabbed the corners of his clothes, suppressing all his sour mood.
At this moment, Xia Yao came over holding Lu Tiantian's hand.
"Dabao is also good."
Xia Yao spoke softly and rubbed Lu Changbai's head.
Lu Changbai was stunned, raised his head in confusion, and saw the gentle smile in Xia Yao's eyes.
His face turned red and he said, "I don't care."
But everyone could see that he cared very much about Xia Yao's words.
In a short period of time, everyone, one large and one small, rebelled, and Lu Jing didn't know what kind of expression he should show.
After a while, after Xia Yao comforted Lu Changbai, he spoke.
"During this period, we also saved a lot of money. I think..."
"Do you want to go to the farm to redeem someone?" Xia Yao thought about it in his mind and blurted out his guess.
She knew that Lu Jing had always wanted to redeem the rest of the Lu family, which was one of the reasons why Lu Jing worked so hard.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she finished speaking, Lu Jing shook his head: "It's not urgent yet."
This time, it was Xia Yao's turn to open his eyes wide in surprise.
"Not urgent?"
She couldn't believe that these words came out of Lu Jing's mouth. She had always known that Lu Jing had deep feelings for Mr. Lu. How could he just watch his relatives suffer on the farm.
Facing the surprise in Xia Yao's eyes, Lu Jing didn't know how to speak for a moment.
His phoenix eyes were lowered, and from Xia Yao's perspective, only his thick eyelashes could be seen.
After a moment, Lu Jingcai spoke: "Now is not the time."
"They have been labeled as bad elements. Even if I have enough money to open up relationships now, they may not be able to come back."
not to mention……
Lu Jing swallowed what was in his heart.
The Lu family couldn't afford such a large amount of money now. Once he did, it would be followed by overwhelming investigations and interrogations. He was not willing to let his relatives face all kinds of suspicions again because of their age. and cross-examination.
Better to be on the farm than to be interrogated.
Farming is a bit tough, but it's not life-threatening.
Although Lu Jing didn't finish speaking, Xia Yao still guessed it.
After being silent for a while, Xia Yao nodded: "Now is indeed not a good time. Even if we have to take Grandpa and the others out, it should be after the grievances on the Lu family have been washed away."
When Lu Jing heard this, his thick eyelashes trembled slightly, and then he raised his eyes. In his deep phoenix eyes, there were emotions that Xia Yao couldn't understand.
"What did you say?"
Xia Yao realized that he had let slip, and his fingers clenched into fists unconsciously.
"What did you just say?" This time, Lu Jing was unwilling to ignore the past. He strode forward and locked eyes with Xia Yao, "What does it mean to wash away grievances?"
Xia Yao complained in his heart.
In fact, the thing she was talking about was done by Lu Jing in the book.
But at that time, only Lu Jing and his two children were left in the Lu family. Mr. Lu and others had long since died on the farm due to overwork.
Even so, Lu Jing still did not give up. He found key evidence that proved that the Lu family were not traitors but patriotic businessmen. It was the Lin family who had facilitated the labeling of the Lu family as traitors.
It was the Lin family who deliberately made things difficult for the Lu family and destroyed a lot of evidence under the guise of defeating the traitors. However, their hard work paid off, and Lu Jing finally found the evidence and cleared the Lu family's grievances.
Seeing Lu Jing's appearance now, it was obvious that the young man had not thought of this level yet.
Xia Yao stepped back step by step, but Lu Jing pressed forward step by step. Now he no longer had the usual harmless disguise, and his phoenix eyes were blazing.
"I..." Xia Yao knew that he had no way out.
She cleared her throat and said seriously: "I want to say, how do you know that grandpa and the others are traitors? Maybe... they were framed by others?"
"You grew up under the guidance of your grandpa. Don't you still know who he is? Maybe there is a villain behind this, deliberately causing harm! And as long as you find the evidence, you can overturn this unjust case!"
"As for the evidence..." Xia Yao thought for a while, but this stopped her.
The original book didn’t say what key evidence Lu Jing obtained to overturn the case!
Xia Yao was stumped for a moment, but soon, she had a flash of inspiration and spoke quickly: "Grandpa is usually so generous to the people in the village, so he must be more concerned about the country and the organization. If you look carefully, Maybe we can find evidence that grandpa donated money and materials?”
"When grandpa was labeled a traitor, wasn't it because the Tian family said that grandpa was ordered by hostile forces to secretly stockpile supplies and sell them at high prices to disrupt market order, while at the same time sending money and supplies to the hostile forces? But where are the so-called supplies that were sold at high prices? And What evidence is there to prove that grandpa is sending money and supplies to hostile forces?"
"Isn't this all just one-sided words from the Tian family? If you can inquire more, you might be able to find some clues. Perhaps...the supplies in this stockpile are not sold at a high price, but given to those who really need them. What about the organization? The organization was completely broke at that time, so it must be a critical time when these supplies are needed!"
These words made Lu Jing stop in his tracks.
His eyes were deep as he looked at Xia Yao.
Xia Yao felt a chill behind her back. Some of those words just now were her memories of the original book, and some were her own speculations.
In fact, the original book is enough to prove that Mr. Lu is not a traitor but a patriotic businessman. Upon further examination, the Tian family's original accusation is untenable.
What's more, with the Lin family backing them, all the Tian family's accusations seemed so weak, and they might be able to find a breakthrough.
Xia Yao didn't say anything, she felt Lu Jing's eyes gradually softening, and she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
But the next moment, Lu Jing's words made her heart skip a beat again.
"When the Tian family accused grandpa, everyone in the brigade, including the captain, didn't know exactly what crime they were accusing grandpa of. Why are you... an educated youth who went to the countryside, a person who is completely unfamiliar with the Qingshui brigade and Anhe County? , know so clearly?”
Xia Yao's heart was racing, and her mind was spinning rapidly, thinking about how she should deal with Lu Jing's question.
"never mind."
Lu Jing stepped forward and walked directly past Xia Yao.
"I don't care about your little secrets."
Lu Jing whispered as they passed each other.
Xia Yao broke into a cold sweat behind her back, and she secretly cursed Lu Jing as a bastard in her heart.
Just now, she almost lost her composure because of Lu Jing's words.
I am so surprised!
