The Lu family’s third son, Lu Zhentao, was the former High Duke’s illegitimate son and the country guarding Duke’s half-brother. He managed the entire Lu family’s business and did not enter the officialdom.
Because of his identity as a concubine’s son, the old Duke had chosen a merchant’s first wife’s daughter, the SU family. The SU family had died early, leaving behind a son and a daughter. Third Master Lu did not remarry, nor did he have any concubines.
The third branch’s son, Lu Jun, was 13 years old and was studying at the Imperial College. Their daughter, Lu Suan, was 10 years old.
Overall, the first household had the most people, while the third household had the simplest father and son.
There were more than 20 people in the Lu family, including his mother. The moment Lu Zheng pushed the door open, everyone looked over.
There was no doubt about Lu Zheng’s appearance. He looked very much like the country guarding Duke.
When the country guarding Duke was young, he was one of the most handsome men in the great Zhou. Otherwise, he would not have been able to abduct Lu Zheng’s mother when he passed by the Zhou family town and make her so loyal to him. He also couldn’t let the daughter of a noble family like Lin Shi still think of him after he got married and have so much love and hate.
Lu Zheng walked in front of the country guarding Duke and smiled.”Father, your son has returned!”
The country guarding Duke frowned slightly. He was a little angry. No matter what, he was still this brat’s father. They had not seen each other for so many years, and he had just appeared so brazenly. Was he going to be over just by shouting?
The country guarding Duke did not answer him, but second old master Lu said with a smile, ” “Little Rou is back! It’s been so many years, and you’re really too much. You didn’t even tell your family that nothing happened to you. You’ve made second uncle sad for nothing!”
Lu Zheng looked over and said in all seriousness,”Second uncle, it’s not that your nephew didn’t want to report, but your nephew didn’t dare! If nephew sends a letter to the family, maybe second uncle really won’t be able to see nephew!”
Second old master Lu,”Yingluo.”
He subconsciously glanced at Madame Lin.
Madame Lin gritted her teeth and calmed herself down. In the end, she did not flare up.
Second Madam Lu was much more straightforward. She smiled sincerely and pulled on Lu Zheng.”Brother Yi has grown up. Second aunt is really happy to see that brother Yi is fine! When second aunt received the news, she even went to the ancestral hall to tell sister-in-law! She said that brother Yi is promising, so sis-in-law can be at ease!”
When Qin Shi married into the family, Lu Zheng’s mother, Zhou Shi, happened to be pregnant with him. Not long after, Qin Shi also had Lu Yue. Zhou Shi grew up in a small place and was the only daughter. She was more lively and carefree. Qin Shi happened to be pampered since she was young. After getting pregnant again and again, the two of them had a very good relationship.
Lu Zheng quietly retracted his hand and said politely, ” “Many thanks to second Shen for telling my mother.”
He knew everyone in the Lu family like the back of his hand and also knew Qin Shi’s personality. She was not bad, but she was definitely not that good either.
“Third uncle, your nephew is back!” He turned to look at third Master Lu.
Third Lu master nodded with a smile on his face. “It’s good that you’re back, it’s good that you’re back!”
Other than that, third Master Lu did not say anything else.
Lu Yang from the third branch blinked his big eyes and looked at Lu Zheng timidly.
Lu Zheng saw her as well. He smiled. when I went to the old mansion, third aunt was not even pregnant with che ‘er. Time really flies.
Lu Yang was stunned for a moment. He walked up to Lu Zheng and said, ” “You are second brother, right? Second brother, you really look like eldest uncle!”
The country guarding Duke, who was about to explode in anger, was instantly appeased when he heard Lu Yang’s words. He looked at Lu Zheng and thought that he was quite similar.
He still remembered how he looked like when he was young. This kid looked at least 80% like him, and 20% like his mother and little Jia.
