Chapter 20: Chapter 20: Oh no, Lu Youxi got into Jing University Chapter 20: Chapter 20: Oh no, Lu Youxi got into Jing University However, after hearing what the grandparents had said, Lu Youxue understood.
If neither he nor his sister were ho, there would be no one to protect their mother.
His father was an honest and upright man, a good person, but not necessarily a good husband or father.
“Grandpa, Grandma, I have to disagree with you here,” Lu Youxi said coldly, “Especially Grandma, you too are a daughter-in-law of the Lu Family. It seems you’ve never considered yourself a true mber of the Lu Family either, always thinking of it as foreign.”
Old Master Lu, having heard this, his face instinctively darkened, and he couldn’t help but look towards Old Madam Lu.
“What nonsense are you spouting, you wretched girl!” Old Madam Lu raised her hand to strike Lu Youxi, her years of being a daughter-in-law evolving into a mother-in-law, who not only favored sons over daughters but was near sadistic towards her daughter-in-law.
She herself had suffered much in the Lu Family, and now that she had the upper hand, she wanted to doubly impose it on her daughter-in-law, making her taste the sa bitterness.
But Old Madam Lu’s hand had not yet fallen when it was blocked by Lu Youxue.
Lu Youxue, with his slight fra, stood firm in front of Lu Youxi and Liu Yushu.
Lu Youxi, looking at Lu Youxue’s back, felt that this small fra was nevertheless much more reliable than Lu Zhenguo.
“So, if you think my mother, as a woman and a daughter-in-law, doesn’t deserve to speak here, then you shouldn’t speak either. You’re a woman and a daughter-in-law too, with no right to speak in the Lu Family,” Lu Youxi said coldly. “At least I still bear the Lu surna! You don’t even have that!”
Aren’t the Lu Family’s elders always going on about ‘the Lu Family’ this and ‘surna Lu’ that?
Then she would fight magic with magic!
“You wretched girl! Is that how your mother spurs you on normally?” Old Madam Lu was furious, “Lu Zhenguo, are you just going to watch her talk back to us? Lu Youxi, this thankless child! You still want to support her through university, hoping she’ll support you in old age? She probably despises us!”
Lu Zhenguo opened his mouth, awkwardly saying, “Mom, Youxi wouldn’t do that.”
Then he turned to Lu Youxi and said, “Youxi, how can you talk to Grandma and Grandpa like that!”
“I’ll kill you today, you family-destroyer!” The old lady looked around for a stick and, seeing a broom in the corner, moved to grab it.
Lu Youxi lifted the express mail envelope, charged into the courtyard, and shouted loudly, “I was admitted to Jing University!”
Lu Youzhen, who had been amusedly watching from the side, expecting Lu Youxi to be beaten, of course, wouldn’t speak up for Lu Youxi. She was just waiting to see Lu Youxi get beaten when she suddenly heard Lu Youxi say this.
Lu Youzhen, shocked, followed her to the courtyard, still in disbelief, “You got into Jing University?”
“Let see your admission notice!” Lu Youzhen rushed over, trying to snatch the express package from Lu Youxi’s hands, wanting to see for herself if it was true.
But Lu Youxi hid the admission notice behind her, “Just look from there, don’t touch my admission notice.”
She wasn’t sure she could trust Lu Youzhen’s character; she might crazily tear up the admission notice.
Lu Youxi stepped back a few more steps, putting so distance between herself and the Lu family mbers, and shouted loudly, “Aunt Lin, Aunt Liu, are you ho?”
“We’re here, we’re here.” The voice of Aunt Lin ca from next door, and soon she entered through the Lu Family’s main gate.
Aunt Liu quickly followed suit, “I’m here too!”
“I need you to witness sothing. Just now, you both heard what my grandparents said, that if I was admitted to Jing University, they would not stop from going to university,” Lu Youxi said loudly. “Now I’ve been admitted!”
Lu Youxi, in front of everyone, tore open the express mail envelope and took out the admission notice inside.
She didn’t trust Lu Youzhen, but she trusted Aunt Lin and Aunt Liu.
Lu Youxi handed the admission notice to Aunt Liu, “Aunt Liu, Aunt Lin, look, this is the admission notice from Jing University, isn’t it?”
Aunt Lin and Aunt Liu leaned in to look, “Yes! It’s the admission notice from Jing University!”
Aunt Liu held the admission notice from Hua Country’s top institution, feeling it almost scalding her hands. After a quick glance, she hurriedly returned it to Lu Youxi, “You better keep this safe.”
“Yes, keep it safe!” Aunt Lin echoed quickly, “Such an important docunt!”
“Who would have thought, another university student from our village, and from Jing University no less!” Aunt Liu handed the admission notice back to Lu Youxi, her hands still slightly trembling with excitent.
Liu Yushu excitedly rushed over, tears in her eyes, “Youxi, you got into Jing University!”
At that mont, Liu Yushu didn’t care about in-laws or Lu Zhenguo, she couldn’t think of anything else and blurted out, “Don’t worry, even if I have to pawn everything, I will make sure you go to Jing University.”
Lu Youxi didn’t ntion that she could win scholarships.
She had mories from a past life and knew she would win scholarships, but her parents didn’t know.
Events that hadn’t happened yet, even if she promised confidently, couldn’t fully convince anyone.
Lu Youxi carefully put the admission notice back into the envelope, and when she looked up, she caught Lu Youzhen glaring at the admission notice, her eyes filled with disbelief and resentnt, almost wishing she could tear the docunt to shreds.
Carefully gripping the admission notice, she then saw Lu Zhenguo also nearly crying with excitent.
“Youxi, rest assured, I will definitely support your education,” Lu Zhenguo promised. “As long as you continue your studies, even if it’s for a Ph.D., I’ll support you!”
Only then did Old Master Lu and Old Madam Lu co out, their faces dark and unwilling.
“Grandma, Grandpa, just now you promised that if I got into Jing University, I could go. Well, now I have been admitted,” Lu Youxi stated loudly.
“Yes, just now I and Xiao Liu both heard it,” Aunt Lin chid in.
Aunt Liu had already thought about it, if it really ca to it, they would bring in the village chief.
Not to ntion just getting into Jing University, even being admitted to an ordinary university would still an being a university student; there was no reason to stop soone from studying.
Old Master Lu scoffed, “Suit yourselves!”
He turned and walked back into the house, Old Madam Lu also no longer wanting to see Lu Youxi’s happy expression.
Lu Youxi was really a losing deal!
Now that she was admitted to the university, they still had to pay her tuition!
Lu Youzhen’s eyes flickered, and she ran off, rushing ho to inform her parents.
“Mom, Dad! It’s bad!” Lu Youzhen hurried into the house, already shouting before she even stopped, “Lu Youxi got into Jing University!”
Ge Guifen was feeding the chickens. Hearing this, she ca out with her basket, “What did you say?”
“Lu Youxi has been waiting at the village entrance for the admission notice for the past couple of days, and today she indeed received it. It’s the admission notice from Jing University!” Lu Youzhen stated, “I was just at Uncle’s house, I saw it with my own eyes. And the neighbors from both sides, Aunt Lin and Aunt Liu, even witnessed it!”
Lu Zhenjia hurriedly ca out of the house, “Lu Youxi got into Jing University?”
