Reborn 73 years later, he takes his mother-in-law hunting in the mountains.

Chapter 345 Are Relatives Good or Bad?

Lu Yao still couldn't figure out what this kid was up to.

Looking at Shi Shouyin now, he seems like a kind and approachable older brother.

It's unimaginable that he was the one who broke Yuan Shumei's ribs and beat Zhao Jianguo to death.

Has he repented?

How could that be?

Having lived a lifetime, Lu Yao understands human nature best.

As the saying goes, "It's easier to change mountains and rivers than to change one's nature."

A person can change their way of life, but they cannot change their personality.

He could choose to marry Ding Mei in this life, but he could never change his philandering nature.

If Shi Shouyin was cruel, then his kindness can only be attributed to not having offended him.

Just like a tiger that has eaten its fill, it doesn't harm people simply because it's not hungry, not because it has become docile.

With his current strength, Lu Yao is definitely not someone who can afford to offend Shi Shouyin.

This command center is now more powerful than it was back when Li Posi was in power.

Lu Yao had witnessed it when Li Posi was in office.

When You Dou Gou Shengzi and Tie Zhu were fighting, there were machine guns on the vehicle.

No matter how capable you are, you can't fight against a well-equipped team.

Besides, he also planned to settle down and live a peaceful life with his family.

He didn't want to kill someone and then flee.

If we want to kill this villain Shi Shouyin, we can only choose assassination; we can't kill him openly.

Shi Shouyin stared at Lu Yao, wondering if Lu Yao had gone mad with emotion because of these gifts.

In this day and age, who can afford such benefits?

Lu Yao was awarded a second-class merit but only received a reward of two hundred yuan.

How could he not be moved when I sent him such a large quantity of useful supplies?

If Shi Shouyin knew that Lu Yao was looking at these supplies and plotting how to kill him, he would be heartbroken.

Jiang Guizhi was extremely grateful at this moment.

Quickly offer Shi Shouyin your seat:

"Director Shi, please sit down. I'll go get a few more dishes and call those comrades at the door in."

Shi Shouyin quickly waved his hand: "No, no, no, those people are not worthy of eating with Xiao Lu. They are not qualified."

Then he picked up his coat and put it on, saying to Lu Yao:

"Brother Lu, I'm heading back now. I might not see you again for another year. I'll bring you a gift when I return."

Lu Yao nodded: "There's no need to be so polite."

Jiang Guizhi kept urging Shi Shouyin to stay for dinner, and a hint of impatience flashed in Shi Shouyin's eyes, but he immediately smiled again when he looked at Lu Yao.

"No need to see me off, nobody needs to see me off, I'll go by myself!"

He closed the door from the outside, preventing the enthusiastic Jiang Guizhi from going out to see him off.

Lu Yao stood on the edge of the kang (a heated brick bed) inside the house, looking out over the courtyard.

Watching Shi Shouyin walk out with crab-like steps.

I got into the car.

They didn't turn around, they just kept driving forward.

They might take a detour out of the village.

When Jiang Guizhi returned, she complained to Lu Yao:

"Look at you, you silly son! I've never seen such a good leader in my entire life! They gave you a gift, and look at you, so indifferent! You're just like your stubborn father!"

Lu Yao smiled and said, "Mom, don't worry about my affairs."

As he spoke, he hugged his mother and sister.

I felt a little uneasy.

If Shi Shouyin had known that the person in the state-owned cotton mill toilet that night was me, he probably would have launched a revenge campaign long ago, and it's impossible that he would still be smiling and giving me gifts.

My biggest worry isn't anything else, but that my family will be implicated.

Fortunately, Shi Shouyin did not notice.

So I'll just play along for now.

If he trusts me, killing him would be much easier.

We can use his connections for now and see what happens later.

Find the best opportunity to strike, without implicating anyone.

Otherwise, many of the candied hawthorn vendors in Jiangzhou City would probably have been tortured for no reason last time.

The employees of the state-owned cotton mill were also frequently interrogated.

Next time, I'll do it perfectly.

Lu Xiaoqian asked her brother:

"Brother, this guy is weird. Why is he so nice to you? He doesn't look like a good person."

Jiang Guizhi quickly tapped Lu Xiaoqian's forehead with her finger:

"This silly child, you can't tell who's good or bad just by looking at them. You're so good to your brother, and you call him a bad person? You're the only one who's not a bad person!"

Then I packed up the gifts:

"Oh dear, we can't possibly eat all of this. Tuwazi, how about we send a few pounds of rice to your uncle as a New Year's visit?"

Lu Yao shook his head: "I wouldn't even feed the dogs to him."

"Oh dear, this child is becoming more and more like a beast! Let me tell you, you little country bumpkin, we can't forget our relatives just because we've become successful. Your mother's relationship with your uncle is like your relationship with Xiaoqian. If Xiaoqian becomes successful in the future, do you think she'll abandon you?"

Lu Yao smiled as he looked at his excited mother.

I thought to myself, you've never suffered at the hands of your uncle in your entire life.

How can I be the same as Xiaoqian? I would kill for Xiaoqian, but he wouldn't even make room for you to sleep.

However, seeing that his mother was about to cry, Lu Yao had no choice but to comfort her:

"Mom, it's not that I'm incapable, it's that my uncle is no good. How about this, let's go to his house right now, I'll bring twenty pounds of rice..."

"Good, that's my good son!"

Lu Yao waved his hand: "I haven't finished yet, Mom."

Lu Yao sat on the edge of the kang (a heated brick bed), holding his mother's hand with one hand and his sister's hand with the other.

"Mom, I just want you to know what kind of people my uncle's family is. You and my sister go in first and tell them I'm in trouble. If they're willing to help, I'll give them twenty pounds of rice, and I'll be there for them whenever they need anything. If they don't help, you'll understand what kind of people they are, otherwise you'll always think I'm a heartless person!"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Guizhi immediately shook her head:

"If our family is in trouble, your eldest uncle will definitely help. I'll go ask him if you don't believe me."

Lu Yao stopped him: "You can't go by yourself. Take Xiaoqian with you. When you go inside, don't say anything. Let Xiaoqian do all the talking. Just don't let anything slip."

It's hard to believe that Jiang Guizhi went to Lu Yao on her own.

He had to bring along his loyal fan, Lu Xiaoqian.

If Jiang Guizhi hadn't sided with her brother, Lu Yao wouldn't have wanted to expose his uncle's true nature and hurt his mother.

But if I don't do this now, it will affect the relationship between mother and child.

Therefore, Lu Yao had to make Jiang Guizhi recognize her family.

Jiang Guizhi still had some confidence in her brother.

I feel that if my brother is in trouble, I will definitely help him without hesitation, so if I am in trouble, my brother will definitely do his best.

She also wanted to shut Lu Yao up so he wouldn't keep saying bad things about her uncle.

Now that her son is capable, Jiang Guizhi is thinking about helping all her relatives in her family to succeed; that would be true achievement.

She was afraid that her family would say behind her back that she was heartless and ungrateful.

He immediately nodded: "Okay, I won't say anything, you two brothers can talk."

Lu Yao laughed and said, "I won't go in either. Let Xiaoqian go in with you. We need to make the most of the act."

Turning back to Lu Xiaoqian, he asked, "Do you know how to fake crying?"

Lu Xiaoqian nodded vigorously, looking very excited:

"I know how, I have a trick. I can cry just like a pro."

She didn't say her secret, but it was simply that her eyes would well up with tears whenever she thought of her father holding her and playing with her when he was alive.

Lu Yao rubbed her head:

"Okay, then try to act convincingly."

Lu Xiaoqian had been listening intently for a long time.

It was perfectly clear what Mom and my brother were up to.

It's a bet on whether my uncle is a human or a ghost.

I am the key person being tested.

To be honest, she sided with her brother.

Because she didn't have a good impression of her uncle's family either.

When I was little, I would go to my uncle's house to play. He was always afraid to eat at their house and would keep pretending to leave to chase me away. Jiang Guizhi was blinded by familial affection and couldn't see it, but Lu Xiaoqian could sense it.

So Lu Yao told his mother and younger sister to wait at home while he went to borrow a bicycle to carry the twenty-odd meters to his uncle's house in Majiadian, to test the Jiang family's good and evil.

Lu Yao ate a few steamed buns and then left home.

I need to borrow Wang Fugui's bicycle.

Now Lu Yao can borrow any car that belongs to anyone in the village.

However, Wang Fugui was the stingiest, so they insisted on borrowing from him.

As we were walking, we saw a villager running towards us in a panic.

"Tuwazi, Tuwazi, something bad has happened!"

"What's wrong, Fifth Uncle?"

"A group of people caused trouble at Captain Ding's... no, Ding Dahu's house. They came in a jeep, carried guns, and tied Ding Dahu up!"

Upon hearing this, Lu Yao was startled and immediately ran towards the Ding family.
