Chapter 4

Lu Xiaoya hurried through the courtyard. She was afraid that if she stayed with Angelica dahurica for another second, she could not help hating her heart like a volcano. The evening breeze was blowing, and the cherry blossoms in the yard had opened, but Lu Xiaoya was not in the mood to enjoy the unforgettable beauty.

She still has a lot of things to do, and there are still many things she doesn't want to understand. This time, she won't let them step on her body and hurt the people who love her.

"Where did you go at night? Why did you come back so late?"

The old voice came from behind, with a trace of stiff concern and a trace of indifference. Lu Xiaoya's footsteps stopped fiercely. The whole person stood there numbly, and even the expression on his face seemed to freeze. The old man was the only one who cared about her in the last life, but he gave her up in the end.

"You've just returned to Lu's house. You don't know a lot of things, and you don't understand the rules of this circle. It's best to stay at home during this time. Don't always run outside. The media are watching you, Miss Lu, how can you still act recklessly like you did at the beginning!" The old man's tone was full of dissatisfaction with her. He still insisted on taking her back when he knew that she was so unbearable in the past. He was thinking that the only blood of the Lu family could not be left out and move towards unbearable and decadent step by step. Who wants to return to Lu's house, not long after she exposed her nature, and even pushed Mengru down to hurt her.

Lu Xiaoya looked at the old man timidly and said, "Grandpa, I'll never run around again."

The old man came to Lu Xiaoya, smelled the strong wine smell on her, frowned, "it's not proper to go out and drink drunk when you're a little unhappy! I don't care what you think of your current life. You are Miss Lu after all. You must learn how to be a real famous daughter! "

"Grandpa, I......" Lu Xiaoya's beautiful eyes were filled with tears. "When can I be like Liu Mengru, i... I'm afraid......" Lu Xiaoya wiped the tears that were about to overflow from the corners of her eyes with her hand, with faint grievances flashing in her eyes.

The old man was stunned by her remark. Yes, she has been out for 15 years. Where has she received the education that a famous daughter should receive. He took it for granted.

Looking at the old man's silence, Lu Xiaoya gently pulled the corner of his clothes and looked at him timidly, "Grandpa, i... did I embarrass you, did you... Regret picking me back..." as she said, there were ripples in her eyes and her face was full of fear, "Sir, I didn't push Mengru down on purpose, really not on purpose, you have to believe me, Don't send me away... "

The old man's eyebrows were twisted into a pimple, "who said to send you away? You're the Lu family. Since you're back, there's no reason to send you away!"

"But... Yes... Liu Mengru will. I won't. doesn't it matter?"

"You are you. Mengru is Mengru. She has received 15 years of education and edification more than you. You don't have to compare everything with her. You just came back, everything can start over. "

"But the family always compares me with Liu Mengru. They think I'm as vulgar as an ugly duckling."

The old man couldn't help thinking of the situation when Mengru came back to visit them a few days ago. The family was happy around Mengru. Xiaoya hid in the corner alone. He saw Xiaoya who was envious of her, but he chose to ignore it. He couldn't help feeling a little guilty.

"In a few days, I'll invite some tutors and etiquette teachers to teach you."

Lu Xiaoya looked at the old man with bright eyes. A faint blush appeared on her childish little face: "Grandpa, can I also dance all kinds of social dances like on TV, use knives and forks, taste red wine and wear thin high-heeled shoes, right?"

"Well, there are more than these." The old man smiled on his face, but his heart was mixed. Her education, connotation, cultivation and even family affection were far away from her because of the gap of these 15 years. He was too anxious to ignore the child's feelings.

"Grandpa, I will try my best!" There was a firm light in the girl's eyes.

The old man found that he had never seen Lu Xiaoya as carefully as today. The child in front of her was wearing ill fitting sandals, and her dress was like a cloth pocket with her small body. I vaguely remember that this dress was a gift brought by my daughter-in-law to Mengru when she traveled to Europe. Mengru didn't wear it again after wearing it several times. Now she has put it on Xiaoya.

She is the real Miss Lu, his real granddaughter. She has been home for nearly a week and doesn't even have a piece of her own clothes! He is such a failure as a grandfather.

Lu Xiaoya secretly vowed that she would never live in the shadow of Liu Mengru in this life. She would be compared with Liu Mengru by others. She would let her grandfather completely stand on her side, even if she took advantage of the old man's full love.
