"Are you... also the one who entered here by mistake?"
After being speechless for a long time, Lu Jun finally came to his senses from the reality that the red-clothed ghost had disappeared, and turned to look at Pei Wende not far away.
"also?"
Keenly capturing the key words in Lu Jun's words, Pei Wende felt that the middle-aged man in front of him seemed not as "crazy" as Zhang Shusheng said?
At the very least, Lu Jun at this stage is someone he can communicate with, rather than a complete madman.
"Has anyone been here besides me?"
After hearing Pei Wende's question, Lu Jun nodded affirmatively as if he didn't understand the other party's words at all.
"Besides you, there is also a watchman named Wu who has also been here."
"It's just that he was killed by my sister Lu Xuan'er in the end, and his head was planted under the big tree outside."
Although he was clearly saying chilling words, Lu Jun seemed to be saying something ordinary, without even the slightest emotion in his voice.
"You're going to die soon anyway, would you like to hear me tell you a story?"
As soon as Lu Jun said this, Pei Wende finally understood why Zhang Shusheng said this guy was a madman.
[Is there no normal person in this family? 】
With such murmurs in his heart, Pei Wende finally chose to sit down and listen to the story honestly.
Anyway, the little green snake has already gone after the beauty's head, while the red-clothed ghost seems to be deliberately hiding from her husband...
So in a sense, the current mourning hall should be the safest place. Pei Wende also needs some time to summarize and summarize what happened to him tonight.
…………………………………………………………………………………………………………
Lu Jun and Rui'er actually didn't know each other for a long time.
However, the process of their getting to know each other is quite legendary in this era and can be called a classic drama piece.
Lu Jun has always been the legitimate son of the Lu family. He has received strict education from Mr. Lu since he was a child, and he has lived up to his expectations and become the most outstanding son in the family.
Not only could he speak at the age of one and write at the age of two, Lu Jun had probably read through most of the commonly used texts when he was four or five years old. He could go to private school to study the Four Books and Five Classics when he was only of school age.
However, what was never expected was that a sudden illness took away his sight, leaving him blind and self-defeating.
"These days lasted until I reached the age of being crowned..."
Years of blindness have made Lu Jun no longer as sunny and active as his peers. With an increasingly gloomy personality, he doesn't want to come into contact with anything outside, let alone let others see him like a waste.
It wasn't until Mr. Lu made the decision without authorization and arranged a wedding for Lu Jun that the days of inaction were truly over.
This seems to be a fixed practice among wealthy families in this era.
This was how Li Lifu married Lu Lan back then, and that's how Li Yanran became today, and Pei Wende appeared in the ghost domain of Lu Mansion today.
"To be honest, I didn't like Rui'er at first..."
"Because that was just a unilateral decision made by my father."
Lu Jun never thought that Mr. Lu really understood his thoughts, but he also knew his father's authority in this family, and his resistance would only result in more meaningless forced "shackles."
This has been the case since childhood. Mr. Lu never asked Lu Jun what he liked. He just gave Lu Jun what he thought was the best.
"Only this time, I don't hate the marriage my father has decided for me."
Although he only took his wife for the sake of happiness at first, as time went by, Lu Jun found that he actually fell in love with this lively and kind girl, and fell in love with her sweet and clear voice.
As his name suggests, he is lively and active, just like a blooming flower, injecting fragrance and vitality that he has never experienced before into Lu Jun's life that has long lost its vitality.
"Maybe it's because it really worked, and my eyes gradually started to see things clearly from then on."
The calm voice still spoke, but Pei Wende clearly heard the long-repressed pain and sadness in Lu Jun's tone, as well as the anger of gaining and losing.
"But I'm even more fortunate that I found someone worthy of my protection in this life."
Lu Jun didn't know if this was the so-called "love".
Because in this era where parents' orders and matchmaker's words were important, he only knew that he was lucky. Ruier's daughter-in-law was much better than he had imagined.
Intelligent, lively, and very considerate, Ruier is more perfect than any woman Lu Jun has ever met, except for being infertile.
To be honest, Lu Jun himself did not have a strong desire for an heir.
However, his father, Mr. Lu, was a traditional old man, and he had learned from the mistakes of the Li family in Tanzhou, which led him to value his children to the point of being almost paranoid.
Taking medicine, worshiping Buddha, taking concubines, and even forcing his son to divorce his wife...
After learning that his daughter-in-law was infertile, Mr. Lu tried every means he could think of, but he still couldn't get what he wanted.
"So not only for her, but also to live a peaceful life in the future..."
Quietly touching the sarcophagus where his wife lay, he saw a line of clear tears dripping down the corner of Lu Jun's eyes.
"I decided to obtain academic status, leave this family, and leave the father who controlled half of my life."
In order to get rid of the shackles of the family...
In order to get rid of his stubborn father...
In his late middle age, Lu Jun burst out with unprecedented potential. In just a few years, he became familiar with the classics of the imperial examination and successfully passed the Jinshi.
"I thought we could finally live the life we like..."
"But what I never expected was that when I received a letter from home again, I got the news that she had died of illness."
At this point, Lu Jun, who was lying on the sarcophagus, was already crying. He was already stimulated and became even more crazy.
As the saying goes, a man won't shed tears easily, but he hasn't reached the sad point yet.
Facing Pei Wende, a man who was destined to die, Lu Jun, who had always been strong, finally stopped pretending about his emotions, and for the first time, he burst out the pent-up feelings in his heart without reservation.
"..."
His lips couldn't help but squirm, and Pei Wende wanted to continue saying "sorrows."
But when these two words came to his lips, he couldn't say them out.
Because Pei Wende knew very well that the man in front of him did not need any comfort. What he needed now was just someone to talk to and vent to.
