Scumbag Chapter 210 The Real Young Master Doesn’t Care For The Crematorium Trope (32)

The old lady was simple-minded, and soon, the old man managed to pry the truth out of her.

It turned out that she had also been reborn.

In her past life, after Grandpa Lu died, Lu Minghua married Miao Rui, and they soon had a child.

With a new generation in the Lu Family, the old lady was overjoyed and even divided some of her shares between Miao Rui and her great-grandson.

Later, she took a bad fall and was sent to a nursing home by them.

The nursing home looked decent on the outside, but the caregivers inside often mistreated the elderly.

At first, Lu Song and He Qiaoqiao would visit her often, and Miao Rui would bring her great-grandson along. The old lady complained about one of the caregivers, and the nursing home fired that person.

But as time went on, Lu Song and his wife visited less and less, until eventually, they didn’t come even once a year.

The old lady’s phone was confiscated, so she couldn’t call home.

"Old Lu, they liked to pinch me, slap me, and sometimes they wouldn’t even give me food..." The old lady cried, tears and snot running down her face.

The Lu Family wasn’t poor, and if the old lady had fallen, they could have hired a private caregiver for her at home.

It was Lu Minghua who said that there are many elderly people in the nursing home, so she wouldn’t feel lonely with so many companions.

At first, the old lady had been reluctant, but somehow, Lu Minghua managed to convince Lu Song and his wife. When her own son and daughter-in-law persuaded her to go, she agreed.

Who would have thought that after entering the nursing home, the old lady would only live decently for the first two years before her life became unbearable?

In the end, she was bedridden, unable to move, and developed severe bedsores that festered with no one to care for her.

“It was this unfilial son who ignored me!" The old lady glared at Lu Song lying beside her and even tried to get out of bed to hit him.

“Now, tell me… who switched my medicine?"

Grandpa Lu stared at the old lady.

“Medicine? What medicine?" The old lady looked utterly confused, and when Grandpa Lu explained that he had died because someone had tampered with his heart medication, she was dumbfounded.

“It wasn’t me! How could I ever do such a thing?" The old lady hurriedly defended herself.

Although she was uneducated and liked to play mahjong, she would never resort to harming others.

Besides, she and Old Man Lu had been married for decades, and he had always treated her well. The couple had a good relationship, so how could she commit such an atrocity?

Grandpa Lu stared at the old lady for a while and concluded that she wasn’t lying.

His old wife might be foolish and not particularly bright, but she didn’t have the heart or the guts to kill someone.

Not long after the old lady finished pouring out her grievances, Lu Song also opened his eyes.

‘Where is this? Didn't I die with He Qiaoqiao in the fire at the old house?’

When he saw Grandpa Lu, Lu Song's eyes turned red.

"Dad..."

Grandpa Lu had been back for several days now and had already come to terms with the bizarre reality of rebirth. Now, seeing his wife reborn and recognizing the look in his son’s eyes, he knew that Lu Song was reborn too.

"Tell me, how did you die?" Grandpa Lu’s face was grim.

"Dad, Lu Minghua is not a good guy! He killed me, and he killed Qiaoqiao too!" Lu Song’s eyes burned with hatred as he gritted his teeth.

As it turned out, Lu Minghua’s years of obedience had all been an act.

He and Miao Rui had slipped something into Lu Song and He Qiaoqiao’s food, leaving them dazed and confused as they signed over their shares. With that, the Lu Family’s assets had become Lu Minghua’s personal property.

At first, Lu Song had worried that his son and daughter-in-law might neglect him after gaining control of the shares, but instead, they treated him with extreme filial piety.

His little grandson would sweetly say, ‘I love Grandpa and Grandma the most!’, and their affectionate words gradually put Lu Song at ease.

Two years later, Lu Minghua mentioned that he wanted to learn the authentic Lu Family’s recipes to ensure their legacy wouldn’t die out.

Lu Song thought about it and felt it made sense. His son is the heir of the Lu Family, so it didn't matter if he gave him the Lu Family’s recipes, because they would be passed down in the future anyway.

And so, Lu Song completely disregarded Grandpa Lu’s repeated warnings never to teach the recipes to outsiders.

Indeed, Lu Minghua had successfully expanded the family restaurant, earning widespread praise. Lu Song had been proud, believing his adopted son had lived up to his expectations.

But gradually, Lu Minghua’s attitude changed.

He and Miao Rui grew increasingly close to the Miao Family. Their second son even took the Miao surname, and eventually, the couple moved back to live with the Miao Family.

When Lu Song asked to see his grandson, Miao Rui would brush him off, saying the child was busy with extracurricular classes and would visit ‘when he had time’.

Then, one day, a fire broke out in the house. Lu Song and He Qiaoqiao had been sleeping so deeply that by the time they woke, the flames had already engulfed everything.

"Dad, how could a fire just start out of nowhere? When I woke up, my head was spinning… I collapsed after just a few steps! Something was very wrong!"

At this point, Lu Song was very emotional.

"Before bed, Qiaoqiao and I both drank milk. There must be something wrong with the milk!"

While Lu Song was talking, He Qiaoqiao also woke up. The couple hugged each other and cried bitterly. The taste of dying in the fire was too painful.

Once they calmed down, Grandpa Lu pointed at the old lady and said, "Who was responsible for sending your mother to a nursing home and abandoning her?"

Lu Song quickly explained the timeline of his death. It turned out, he and He Qiaoqiao hadn’t visited the old lady later because they were already dead.

"Who was the person who switched my medicine?" Grandpa Lu continued to ask.

At this time, Lu Song's eyes were a little evasive, and Grandpa Lu immediately understood everything.

"Wonderful. What a fine son you are!"

"Dad, I was also afraid at that time..."

"Scared of what? That I’d uncover something? Did you kill Mingting? Even a tiger doesn’t eat its own cub… Mingting was your own son!" Grandpa Lu’s voice shook with fury.

"No, no! It wasn’t me! Miao Rui tampered with Mingting’s car! She said Mingting was the only one who could save Minghua, but he refused to donate a kidney..."

"The medicine I switched was just vitamins Miao Rui gave me! I never wanted anything to happen to you..."

Plak!

Grandpa Lu slapped Lu Song in the face.

"That woman murdered your son! And you protected her by killing your own father?!" Grandpa Lu was so angry that his beard was shaking, "You deserved to be burned to death by that vicious couple. This is karma!"

"I was unfair, blind, and got killed by my own son! You two neglected your flesh and blood, switched my medicine, and abandoned your mother in a nursing home, and in the end, your adopted son killed you. This. Is. Karma!"

After saying that, Grandpa Lu coughed up blood and collapsed.

The hospital descended into chaos, and Fengtian relayed every detail to Mingting.

Now, the truth is out.
