Transmigrated Into the Vicious Stepmother in a Historical Novel - Chapter 214

“You just said you had something to tell me. You won’t just share this, right?”

“Of course there’s more. Recently, Lu Chen has really enjoyed making money and playing around with these little things. I think it’s great that he has the courage to put himself out there and has his own ideas.

So, I believe we should support Lu Chen in this. We shouldn’t dampen his enthusiasm. Next time you see him, make sure to encourage him.”

Lu Chen could become a business prodigy, and Sheng Fei didn’t want anyone to dampen Lu Chen’s motivation.

Hearing Sheng Fei’s advice, Lu Ting felt that she truly cared for Lu Chen like her own child. Sometimes, even with one’s own kids, it’s hard to be that attentive.

“You mean I shouldn’t discourage him?”

“Exactly.”

“But he’s just a kid. If that’s the case, wouldn’t it affect his studies?”

“Lu Chen is a smart kid. He won’t neglect his studies. Besides, I believe he can balance studying and making money.

Though he’s small in stature, he has his own ideas. As long as we don’t interfere and support him, I believe that one day Lu Chen will surprise you.

Alright, enough about that. Let’s think of a way to return that money to your brother Lu Jiefang.”

After discussing the matter about Lu Chen, Sheng Fei handed over the money wrapped in a plastic bag to Lu Ting.

Last time, she had already told Lu Ting that this money was from “Jixiang and Ruyi” and needed to be returned to the house next door.

Unfortunately, Sheng Fei had a strained relationship with them, so she would never go herself.

It was fortunate she found this money, it was a stroke of luck. If someone else had found it, they likely would have spent it.

“I almost forgot about it. After you told me last time, I tested my eldest brother’s thoughts on it. He said the money was lost by Jixiang and Ruyi, which caused a big fight between my mom and sister-in-law. Now, the two sides are at odds. If things go poorly, they might think we took the money.”

“I just thought they might misunderstand us, which is why I had you do this. When you give it to them, you can explain. Anyway, I’m handing the money to you, so you can give it however you want.”

Thank goodness she left this mess for Lu Ting to handle. After she finished speaking, she went off to do her own things.

Lu Ting smiled wryly, feeling the money was like a hot potato.

Many knew that the eldest brother and sister-in-law of the Lu family were unreasonable people. Lu Ting knew it too, so he tried to avoid conflict. If he couldn’t avoid it, he’d have to face it head-on.

Sitting there, he felt quite troubled.

He wasn’t sure what to do.

After thinking it over, Lu Ting concluded that if he handled this well, no one would be grateful to him, but if it went poorly, they might misunderstand him.

In the end, Lu Ting decided to let Jixiang and Ruyi deal with this mess, so he didn’t do much. He went directly to the children.

Sometimes, Jixiang and Ruyi and the five children walked to school together and played together, so Lu Ting asked the children about Jixiang and Ruyi’s usual route.
