Chapter 274 - 274 263 Lu Hongjun Compromises
?Chapter 274: Chapter 263: Lu Hongjun Compromises Chapter 274: Chapter 263: Lu Hongjun Compromises Lu Hongjun had intended to give his collection of old items to his nephews. In his mind, only the nephews could carry on the Lu Family legacy, as a daughter would ultimately marry and belong to another family. Of course, this didn’t prevent him from relying on her for his old age. Holding such views was the reason why he had let something slip in front of Lu Jiaguang.
After Lu Jiaxin finished speaking, she turned and said to Gu Wenfeng, “Brother Gu, you’d better hurry on home. Your wife and children must be waiting for you to come back!”
Gu Wenfeng nodded, but he didn’t leave right away. Instead, he turned to Lu Hongjun and said, “Everybody can see Jiaxin’s character is above reproach. If you have a clear mind, you shouldn’t refuse.”
Relying on nephews for old age care is the dumbest thing ever. Take the Lu Family for instance, Lu Jiaguang is a decent man, but his own parents are still alive, and he can’t possibly neglect his own parents to take care of an uncle who lives in another household. It’s one thing to help take care of you for a few days, but contributing money and effort full-time is definitely impossible—they just can’t shoulder that burden. Not to mention the parents of Lu Jiajie, who are even less likely to contribute, they’re the kind who take advantage without ever suffering a loss. If Lu Hongjun asked them to support him, they’d immediately come rushing to the Forty-nine City. And if he was considering remarrying in the future, the chances were he’d want a pretty one. A beautiful woman marrying an old geezer like you is only after the money. Once they’ve drained all your assets, who’d bother with such an old geezer anymore?
Lu Hongjun, aware of his own extraordinary status, asked, “But what if she breaks her promise and neglects me later on?”
Second Sister-in-law Lu couldn’t help saying, “For all these years, our family has never leeched off you. The few times you fell sick, I sent Jiazong to take care of you, and even made you chicken and fish soup to boost your health—all out of respect for Jiaxin. If you’re not leaving your possessions to Jiaxin, setting aside to marry some young and pretty widow, then let me put it this way: if you get sick or go to the hospital later on, don’t call us, we won’t be involved.”
After saying that, she glared at her husband.
Lu Jiazong quickly responded this time, immediately echoing, “Third Uncle, I’ll listen to my wife.”
