Chapter 145: 116 Lu Family men preaching principles to you, means they don’t love you (2 updates)_1 Chapter 145: 116 Lu Family men preaching principles to you, means they don’t love you (2 updates)_1 Everyone was surprised; the surgery took such a short time? From start to finish, it was less than half an hour.

Especially Wu Donglin, who was full of energy. After the surgery, he felt his head, which had been muddled for so many years, suddenly become much clearer, and the voices of the people around him became much more distinct.

This kid, Lu Han, is really impressive. The praise and recommendation Bai Wei had given to his grandson were based on true ability, far from the empty talk he initially thought it was.

He had sporadically sought out doctors in Beijing before, but they never seemed to be able to target the problem as quickly, always just alleviating his condition. He had never heard any of them suggest solving the issue with surgery.

Wu Donglin couldn’t stop praising Lu Han.

No wonder Tang Su chose Lu Han over her family’s Wu Jie. Indeed, in some respects, this young man was much more composed than her own Wu Jie.

That girl really knew how to pick.

“Lie flat, don’t move around, and don’t get too agitated. Depending on how well you recover, you may be discharged in three to five days. If not good enough, another surgery might be necessary, such as if you’re smug and don’t follow instructions.”

Lu Han was blunt with his words. Just like with old people and children sometimes, you have to say things as they are—coddling them all the time won’t do any good.

When everyone heard Lu Han use words like “smug” and “disobedient” to describe their patriarch, the butler was the first to not dare to make a sound. Besides Doctor Lu, there was definitely no one else who dared to say such things about their old master.

As expected, Wu Donglin’s face turned sour when he heard Lu Han’s assessment of him.

This brat, Lu Han, was really crossing the line, lacking respect for his elders. When he returned to Beijing, he would have to properly complain to Bai Wei and also to Lu Maoyan. They needed a stern talking to.

Other children of the Lu family had been disciplined properly by him. No matter what, he was Lu Han’s father; he should teach him if it’s necessary, and if he can’t learn, then a thrashing might be in order.

He didn’t believe that he couldn’t teach a good child through discipline.

He also knew that it wasn’t that Lu Maoyan didn’t dare to discipline; it was that he couldn’t bear to do so. The men in the Lu Family may lack other talents, but they were second to none when it came to loving and cherishing their kin—something no one could learn from them.

If a man from the Lu family talks to you about principles, it means he doesn’t love you; that’s why he sticks to principles.

When it comes to someone they truly love deep in their heart, ha….

Principles? It’s all bullshit.

Rules? Just a pile of dog shit.

Just look at Lu Maoyan, who’d talked about principles and rules all his life, but when facing Bai Wei and her son, Lu Han, he became a complete pushover.

Forget it, let’s not talk about this.

It’s useless to complain about Lu Han to them, unless Bai Wei is willing to personally pick up a duster to punish her precious son.

“We have other things to attend to, so we’ll be leaving now. Call me if there’s anything. I believe, if you behave, there should be no issues,” said Lu Han, then he put his arm around Tang Su’s shoulder and led her away.

Once they stepped out of the ward, Tang Su’s phone rang. Lu Han was heading to the changing room to change clothes, so he took her to the empty room next door and suggested she take her call there. He then went to the room next door to change.

“Hello, Empress Mother—” Tang Su was in a very good mood.

“How did it go today? Was Lu Han’s surgery successful? What time did you finish over there?” asked Su Ruoan. She and Tang Shengyi had prepared at home and were about to leave when they thought of checking with Tang Su on the status there.

“It’s already finished, Lu Han is changing clothes, and we’re about to leave.”

“You know, if you guys don’t have time to prepare red envelopes, I have two extra ones here. I’ll have your dad wait for you at the entrance of the farmstay, and you can just use those directly. There’s no need to buy gifts; giving red envelopes is simpler and doesn’t require much thought.”

“Yeah, good idea, but we’ll just pick up a red envelope on the way there.”

“You need to buy two.”

“Huh? Am I not tagging along with you guys for free food and drinks? Haven’t I married yet? Am I not a daughter to you and my Emperor Father anymore? If we’re a family, why give two red envelopes?” Tang Su was puzzled.

She remembered, at the beginning of this year when their family of three went for a meal, they only gave one red envelope. At the time, she even asked if she, now working, should give one separately.

Her mother had said back then, since you’re not married yet and are still a daughter waiting to be married off, part of our household, one red envelope from our family of three is enough. She also said the amount was quite generous, and it wasn’t necessary to trouble ourselves with dividing it into two.

Why the change in stance today?

So it was because it was her best friend’s husband’s birthday, and the more red envelopes for her best friend, the better, right?

Indeed, that’s what Su Ruoan had in mind, “Do you eat and drink less at your godmother’s? No matter what, since they’re for your godmother, what’s wrong with giving one more envelope?”

At this point, Tang Shengyi joined the conversation, “Girl, hurry up and get two red envelopes. Three or four, your mom won’t think it’s too many. She just asked me to give one separately.”

Tang Su: “…”

Su Ruoan scolded, “Why are you butting in? Are your shoes even on properly?”

Tang Su was actually quite envious of the friendship between her mom and her godmother. She truly hoped that by the time she and Sun Qing reached their mothers’ ages, their relationship would still be this strong.

It’s just that her godmother didn’t have children, so in the future, Sun Qing must have kids, or else she would end up like her godmother, always thinking about snatching her children away.

She didn’t mind, but still, she hoped that if she decided to have children later on, Sun Qing would have her own too. That way, they could even become relatives by marriage, right?

Adding kinship upon kinship, how wonderful that would be.

And it’s not that her godmother didn’t want children; she was forced into not having any.

Thinking about this, Tang Su felt really angry, wondering why her godmother was so eager to celebrate Jiang Tao’s birthday when he had treated her godmother so heartlessly. Why not let Jiang Tao’s pair of children celebrate with their dad?

After hanging up the phone, Tang Su pursed her lips. Lu Han stood by the door waiting for her, and seeing her unhappy face, he pulled her over, “What’s the matter? Your lips are so pouty you could hang an oil bottle on them. You don’t like giving the extra red envelope? I’ll handle it.”

“No need, I’m just upset that Jiang Tao won’t let my godmother have kids. She’s still out celebrating his birthday.”

“Don’t all you women fear pain? Isn’t it great not to have kids?” Lu Han ushered her to the elevator.

This floor wasn’t busy. Old Ke had already issued instructions, wanting Wu Donglin to have a good rest, so the neighboring rooms were vacant.

There was no need for the two of them to conceal their conversation.

The doctors and nurses were also specially assigned. Unless there was something wrong in the ward, they basically didn’t come over.

“It would be good if a woman herself gave up the right to have children, but my godmother has been pregnant before. It was that old bastard Jiang Tao who didn’t want it.” He robbed her godmother of her right to be a mom for his own children, what a selfish old man.

If it weren’t for her godmother being the hostess of the birthday party today, she really wouldn’t want to go.
