Lu Fengchun's words made it hard for Lu Zhiyuan to say anything.
He can't say that his mother doesn't care about you at all.
He knew clearly that Lu Fengchun's words were telling everyone that he was back, which was what the old lady meant.
As long as Lu Zhiyuan nods his head according to his words, it will be justifiable for Lu Fengchun to return to Ning'an Marquis Mansion.
Lu Zhiyuan finally planned for so long to expel people, but now they are back.
He even defeated him.
He tried to calm down, struggled out of Lu Fengchun's arms, and replied awkwardly.
"Let's see mother first."
He didn't answer Lu Fengchun's words, and Lu Fengchun didn't say anything. He just nodded and followed him to the coffin.
The old lady was lying inside, her eyes closed tightly and she looked very peaceful.
Lu Fengchun wiped his tears and shouted that his son would be late when he came back.
Each sound is more tragic than the last, making people feel moved every time they hear it.
Compared with Lu Fengchun, Lu Zhiheng was not that dramatic. He only had symbolic red eyes and stood aside respectfully.
He is about the same age as Lu Hanxiao.
He also has dark skin, but has outstanding appearance. He has inherited Jiang Linrou's good looks, and he can be called a handsome young man.
He looked towards Si Ning and Lu Hanxiao. When he saw Si Ning, he nodded slightly and then turned his attention to Lu Hanxiao, bowing and saluting.
Lu Hanxiao nodded, responding to him.
Lu Fengchun also looked at Lu Hanxiao, called out to his third brother, thank you for your hard work, and said nothing more.
The funeral at Ning'an Marquis Mansion was very grand, with many relatives and friends coming to pay their respects every day.
The Marquis of Jing'an and the British duchess came to pay their respects in person, and ministers from the DPRK and China also attended.
When you come to worship, you not only burn incense, but also give some gifts.
The old lady lay in mourning for seven days and was buried five days before the New Year's Day. She was buried next to the Lu family's ancestral grave in the suburbs of Beijing.
Because the old Marquis is still alive, Mrs. Lu can only build a small grave alone. After the old Marquis returns to the West a hundred years ago, she will be buried with him.
The Lu family has been from the capital for generations, and their ancestral graves occupy a large area.
But the branch of the old Marquis was a side branch, so it was in a remote location. The old lady's grave looked small and desolate, but no one cared about it.
In the ancestral hall, Lu Zhiyuan announced the old lady's last wish in public.
"My mother has some private property in her hands. I will take care of it for the time being. I will also take over the shop under her name temporarily. Because my father is still alive, we will not separate the family. I will wait until my father comes back to make a decision."
As soon as these words came out, Jiang Linrou was the first to object.
The old Marquis is not at home all year round. Even if he wants to tell him about the old lady's death, he doesn't know where to send the message.
When he comes back to make a decision, I'm afraid her father-in-law won't be able to come back even if she dies.
When the old lady died, Lu Zhiyuan was left alone. Who knows what she said?
Their big house is also the Lu family's, so they should all have a share in the old lady's private property.
"Second brother, I think my mother's intentions are good, but this kind of thing is more fair. The property left by my mother is also intended to benefit future generations. Now you are the only one in your room, and as you said, your father is not here. , that is, the eldest brother is the father, so why not let your eldest brother keep your mother's belongings first, and then when you give birth to a son, you can hand these properties to your descendants."
Jiang Linrou had always kept her tail between her legs in the Lu family because the old lady was pressing on her and she couldn't get over it.
In addition, her husband and children were controlled by Lu Zhiyuan and Li Xutang, so she did not dare to go against her second wife.
But things are different now... The old lady died, Li Xutang ran away, and only Lu Zhiyuan was left.
Now that he doesn't even have an official position, he is no different from them, so what is there to worry about?
As the sister-in-law, Jiang Linrou is qualified to raise objections.
There are also clan leaders and other clan members who also support Jiang Linrou.
"Logically speaking, this is the private property of the younger siblings. We can't say much, but Lin Rou is right. The eldest brother is the father. Since the third brother is not at home, and Zhiyuan insists on waiting until the third brother comes back to make a decision, it is better to leave it to Fengchun first. Come on,"
"He has experienced at the border for so many years. He has seen more than Zhiyuan and is more stable."
As the most vocal person in the clan, the clan leader made his position clear.
Most of the Lu family members are doing nothing, but a branch of the family is living such a good life. Many people in the family are jealous, but they have to rely on Ning'an Marquis Mansion to live, and often go to Ning'an Marquis Mansion to enjoy the autumn breeze.
The old lady was selfish, so how could she let these people take advantage of her? Naturally, she showed them a lot of face.
Li Xutang and the old lady are colluding, and he won't be kind to these people.
The people in the clan scolded them behind their backs, thinking only of getting revenge one day.
Now that the opportunity came, they naturally took advantage of it without hesitation.
Lu Zhiyuan is not someone to be bullied, "My father is not dead yet, and it is not your turn to decide on my mother's private property!"
"Then let the government make the decision and let the government make the decision. How should this private property be handled?"
Lu Fengchun couldn't break up with Lu Zhiyuan, so Jiang Linrou would do it.
Anyway, she was a sister-in-law, so even if she said a few words to Lu Zhiyuan, it would be hard for Lu Zhiyuan to say anything.
After all, isn’t there an old saying that the elder sister-in-law is the mother?
During this period, Lu Hanxiao and Si Ning stood aside without saying a word.
He was an adopted son. Whether it was the old lady's private property or everything in the Ning'an Marquis Mansion, these people did not want to give Lu Hanxiao even half of it.
They have all forgotten how the Lu family got the success they have today.
Of course, Lu Hanxiao wouldn't want the old lady's money, but he just had to stand here, otherwise he wouldn't even listen to a word.
There was a quarrel in the ancestral hall, with both parties holding different opinions.
Although Lu Zhiyuan was weak, he had no intention of giving in.
At this moment, the greed of human nature is undoubtedly exposed, and you can give up face for money.
Several people quarreled over this matter for several days, and finally reached an agreement - to divide the money equally.
House deeds, gold, silver, jewelry and shops, half for the big house and half for the second house.
Because the old Marquis was still alive, Lu Zhiyuan also said that the old lady had mentioned that the families should not be separated, so everyone still lived in Ning'an Marquis Mansion.
After they finished dividing, they remembered that there were Si Ning and Lu Hanxiao.
The clan leader looked down upon Lu Hanxiao because they had never benefited from Sanfang and felt that this adopted son had taken advantage of their Lu family.
And because he asked Lu Hanxiao several times to arrange for the children of the clan to go to the military camp, Lu Hanxiao refused. The clan leader even criticized him.
At this time, they saw that Lu Hanxiao didn't look good at all. Lu Hanxiao didn't bother to talk nonsense with them, so he took Si Ning out of the ancestral hall and wandered around.
The ancestors of the Lu family chose this place very well. It is surrounded by mountains and water, and the scenery is pleasant.
The two of them chose a high place overlooking the entire capital, and Lu Hanxiao pointed it out to Si Ning.
"That's Qianmen Street. There's a stall selling brine. That's the market. South Lane is over there..."
He pointed to a place on the outskirts of the city, "There is a racecourse there, it is very wide..."
Si Ning thought that Lu Hanxiao had once said that when he returned to Beijing to resume his duties, he would go to the city in advance to visit the bustling capital. In the future, he wanted to build a border border in the shape of the capital, and he couldn't help but be curious.
"Lu Hanxiao, can you tell me what the border is like?"
