Chapter 940-Side Story, Comprehension 41
“Amitabha.”
Wu Cheng walked out of the house and said softly.
Father and Mother Jiang couldn’t help but look at him.
Wu Jiu looked at Jiang Tongtong and nodded at her. Jiang Tongtong had done far better than Wu Jiu had imagined. She was very strong.
“Are the two of you looking down on me?” Wu Meng looked at Mother Jiang and Mother Jiang.
Mrs. Jiang and Mr. Jiang’s expressions stiffened. In the business world, they had seen many people who hid knives behind their smiles. They always spoke in a roundabout way. They thought that Wu Xing was going to persuade them to make peace. Who knew that he would be in a difficult position the moment he opened his mouth?
Mother Jiang and Father Jiang didn’t know how to answer him at that moment. Just hearing Wu Meng’s words made them feel very uncomfortable.
“Daddy, Mommy and Daddy didn’t mean that,” Lu Qiuran hurriedly explained.
Wu Meng looked at Lu Qiuran. Lu Qiuran suddenly lost her voice. At that moment, she seemed to have lost her ability to speak.
Wu Jiu’s gaze seemed capable of cutting her into pieces. Lu Qiuran was terrified, and her soul trembled. Wu Jiu’s tone was cold.” Qiuran, you’re 23, right? Other than the five years you left, you’ve lived with me for almost 18 years. When I picked you up, you were only a few months old. Did I force you to do anything?”
Lu Qiuran’s expression was ugly, but she still bit her lip and spat out two words.
Wu Jiu looked at Mother Jiang.” 1 don’t think the two of you are fundamentally different from Lu Qiuran and me. Why are you forcing Jiang Tongtong to this point?” She was already twenty-six years old. Did she not even have the right to make her own choice? Why can’t she make the decisions in her life?”
Mother Jiang’s face turned ugly. She could no longer pretend to be easy-going. Her sharp and difficult side was completely revealed.” What’s my family like? What’s yours like?” What does it have to do with you how I teach my child? If you don’t have the ability to give it, don’t tell me you don’t allow others to give it? 1 raised her. Don’t you understand?”
“The kindness of raising him is greater than the heavens?” Wu Jiu narrowed his eyes.
Mrs. Jiang frowned, and Mr. Jiang did not look too good either.
Lu Qiuran’s heart skipped a beat.
“I’m afraid the two of you have forgotten that I raised Lu Qiuran. I still have the adoption certificate issued by the police. If I don’t relent, Lu Qiuran will forever be surnamed Lu.”
Wu Cheng smiled.
“Daddy…” Lu Qiuran felt wronged and sad.
Wu Xin glanced at Lu Qiuran.” What’s wrong? Do you feel wronged? You didn’t agree with me just now. You were raised by someone else, so you should understand better. Don’t tell me that I should be able to understand and support you infinitely when I’m here? Do whatever you want to do?”
Wu Cheng was just short of saying the phrase ‘a whore still needs to build a memorial arch’.
Father Jiang’s face darkened.” Master Lu, you’re a monk. Isn’t it a little beneath you to say that?”
Wu Jiu looked at Father Jiang.” Sir, you must be joking. What 1 cultivate is my heart. As long as I have a clear conscience, I will not be disturbed by anything.”
Don’t use this moral kidnapping. I don’t buy it at all.
Wang Zixiao and the others were about to clap their hands and applaud for Wu Cheng. At this moment, they felt that this old monk was too handsome. His aura was unleashed and he could kill everything in a second.
What a good cultivation heart. The entire program team wanted to clap and cheer for Wu Xu.
Father Jiang and Mother Jiang’s faces were ashen. They could not win against Wu Meng and could not suppress him even if they wanted to, regardless of their status or anything else.
“Jiang Tongtong is suffering from severe depression. Do you know that?” Wu Jiu looked at her parents calmly. Did you know that she had severely harmed herself?”
Mr. and Mrs. Jiang’s faces turned ashen. Mrs. Jiang gritted her teeth and said,” How could she be sick? We didn’t mistreat her in any way. What she has today is the life that many people dream of. We can’t even beg for it. What else is there for her to be unsatisfied with? How have we wronged her? Why is she suffering from depression?”
Mother Jiang questioned him angrily. Wu Jiu’s expression was still calm. He smiled gently.” 1 think cultivation is good. Can 1 force others to cultivate with me?”
“You…” Mother Jiang glared at him.
How could this be the same thing?
“Are you willing to cultivate with me?” Wu Meng looked at Mother Jiang. Eating vegetarian food and chanting Buddha to leave the secular world, all of this is for your own good. 1 will definitely teach you everything, are you willing? Ma ‘am, you’re not willing either, right? Don’t do to others what you don’t want others to do to you.”
Mother Jiang was speechless.
Lu Qiuran wanted to speak up for her parents, but before she could say anything, Wu Meng’s gaze landed on her.
“Think about yourself first before you ask others.” Wu Meng looked at Lu Qiuran.
Mother Jiang took a deep breath and looked at Jiang Tongtong coldly.” If you want to be my disciple, then don’t acknowledge us as your parents.”
Jiang Tongtong felt as if her throat was blocked. She looked at Wu Meng. That was light, her salvation. Jiang Tongtong endured the pain in her heart and said,” Alright, then I’ll be an orphan again. I’ve learned it before, and I won’t touch it again in this life.”
Mother Jiang was speechless.
Father Jiang felt his head swell. He finally regained some rationality. He forced an awkward smile and said,” What are you talking about? We’ve been family for so many years. How can you say that?”
Father Jiang felt that everything was beyond his expectations. They were not here to make enemies, but to befriend. After all, this old monk had good medical skills. He should not make enemies. He would be of use to them in the future.
How did it develop to this extent?
Now that they had cut ties with each other, it was not as if they could not get anything in the future. Father Jiang did not believe it. He pulled Mother Jiang and said to Jiang Tongtong,” Tongtong can learn if she wants to. Father and Mother will not stop her. Master Lu, don’t be angry. When Tongtong acknowledges you as her master, we will be even closer.”
Wu Jiu smiled faintly. He did want to get rid of this family, but under the pressure of benefits, Father Jiang came to a realization. It was impossible to sever ties with them. He would not let go of Jiang Tongtong unless he squeezed out a trace of benefits from her.
Mother Jiang was still angry. Lu Qiuran lowered her head and bit her lip. She didn’t want this to happen at all. If Jiang Tongtong accepted a master, her depression would only gradually recover. She would feel very happy when she found that her father was always by her side and caring for her.
That was not what she wanted to see.
Father Jiang couldn’t let go of the benefits, so he smiled and acted as a peacemaker.
Father Jiang nudged Jiang Tongtong and said with a smile,” What are you waiting for? Hurry up and prepare some tea to acknowledge Master Lu as your teacher. You’re still young anyway. You can learn anything you want. Just follow Master Lu and learn well.”
It would be best if he could learn all of his skills. Then, he would also be a divine doctor in the future. With a single needle to treat a disease, how many people would beg to come? How could the machinery in the hospital compare to the ones that had been passed down since ancient times?
Muxue smiled and pulled Jiang Tongtong to prepare tea.
Wang Zixiao and the others smiled.” I thought I was joking. So you’re really going to acknowledge me as your master. I’ll have to prepare some gifts.”
Everyone went to prepare and soon gathered in the temple hall. The scene was harmonious..
