Lu Ming remained silent for a while, then sat up straight and looked at Lin Wanwan.

"What's wrong?" Lin Wanwan looked at him with some curiosity.

"Mom, why doesn't Uncle get married and have children?"

Lin Wanwan looked earnestly into his eyes, "Xiaoming, everyone has the right to choose what kind of life they want to live. My father and I love each other, so we decided to get married and have you and my brother. Dabo also has the right to choose not to get married and not to have children. No matter which one, our ultimate goal is to live a happy and joyful life."

Do you think your uncle is happy?

Lu Ming nodded, "Uncle knows a lot of things, he studied abroad, he's just as good at business as Mom, he's filial to Grandma, and he's very good to Mom and us. He has dinner with us every day and always has a smile on his face. I think Uncle is very happy."

"Yes, no matter what kind of life we ​​choose, whether we get married or not, whether we have children or not, our goal is happiness and joy. Although we may take different paths, our goal is the same."

“I understand, Mom. If anyone in the alley says again that Uncle isn’t married or that there’s something wrong with him, I’ll just say this to them.”

"Xiaoming, what some people say isn't that important. Don't let it affect our mood."

Lu Ming nodded.

Lin Wanwan stood up and patted his shoulder, "You're taller than your mother now, you're a little man now."

"Mom, from now on, Dad and I will protect you together."

Lin Wanwan turned around with a smile, "Okay, let's go, let's go eat."

The two came out just as Song Lanzhi called for dinner.

The Lu family doesn't have many rules, and they often chat during meals.

Song Lanzhi looked at the two children and said, "Summer vacation is coming soon, right? Go stay at your grandparents' house for a while during the vacation."

Lu Jing looked at Song Lanzhi with pleading eyes, like an abandoned puppy.

"Grandma, are you annoyed by us and want to kick us out?"

Song Lanzhi knew he was faking it, and said irritably, "You made sweet and sour pork ribs for me even though you disliked me, you little ingrate."

Lu Jing pouted, "It's obvious that Mom likes to eat it. Grandma is the most biased; she only likes my mom."

Song Lanzhi said with a smile, "Then you're right, I do like your mother, and you all have to step aside."

Zhang Junyi laughed along with him.

He was quite reserved when he first came to our house for dinner, but he gradually got used to it. Sometimes, after dinner, we would chat so late that Song Lanzhi would let him stay at our house for a few days.

"Second brother, how's the company doing lately?"

Lin Wanwan was asking about Zhang Junyi. One day during a meal, Song Lanzhi suddenly told Lu Feng and Lin Wanwan to call him "Second Brother" and the two children to call him "Second Uncle."

Song Lanzhi accepted it all, and the others had no objections. The two children only knew that they had gained another uncle who loved them.

Lu Anyang looked at her speechlessly, "Didn't we agree during dinner that he wouldn't work and that he was resting? You still want him to talk about work? Are you trying to kill him with exhaustion?"

Zhang Junyi blushed and patted his arm to indicate that he was fine.

Lin Wanwan immediately made a shushing gesture, "I'm sorry, I disturbed your meal."

Zhang Junyi blushed and was about to say something when Song Lanzhi interrupted him.

She put a piece of pork rib in his bowl and said, "You eat. Wanwan is like a workaholic. Don't be like her."

"Mom, I prioritize my family now. When did I become a workaholic?"

"Aren't you ashamed when you say that?" Lu Anyang casually chimed in.

"Honey, your brother is bullying me."

Lu Feng glanced at Lu Anyang and said, "Ignore him, my brother is going through menopause."

Even Zhang Junyi, who was standing next to him, laughed.

After summer vacation started, Lin Wanwan felt that her work was not so busy anymore, and she had less time to work overtime.

While I was having chilled white fungus soup at home, I received a call from Bai Ying.

"Wait, again. I think I'm hallucinating."

The person on the other end of the phone patiently explained it once.

Lin Wanwan was even more confused after that.

After hanging up the phone, Lu Feng asked curiously, "What startled you? You looked so incredulous."

Lin Wanwan blinked and looked at him, saying, "Bai Ying is getting married."

Lu Feng raised an eyebrow, before he could say anything.

Song Lanzhi immediately asked happily, "Is it a matter of careful consideration who you marry?"

Lin Wanwan looked at her in surprise, "Mom, how did you know?"

"How could I not know? Grandpa and Grandma Jinyan really like Bai Ying and have been trying to match them up. I thought it wouldn't work out, but I never expected they would actually get married."

Song Lanzhi stood up with a happy expression and said, "Bai Ying is like a daughter to me, so I have to prepare something for her."

He started to walk out, but before he reached the door, he turned back.

"Let me call your mom and godmother first and ask what we should prepare."

Lin Wanwan blinked at Lu Feng.

"How come I didn't know? My senior brother didn't tell me."

"Not a single message received?"

Lin Wanwan looked at him and shook her head.

After Song Lanzhi finished her call, Lin Wanwan immediately dialed Cheng Jinyan's home phone number.

Cheng Jinyan didn't say much, only that he would pick her up and they would go for afternoon tea together.

"I went to have afternoon tea with my senior brother. These two are too much! They didn't send any news at all, and now they're getting married."

Lu Feng took her hand and asked, "Do you want me to take you home?"

"No need, my senior brother said he's coming to pick me up. I'll be right back after I go out for a bit."

Cheng Jinyan arrived very quickly.

Lin Wanwan stared at him without saying a word after getting into the car.

Cheng Jinyan kept smiling, "What kind of look is that?"

"The interrogative look in your eyes... Why did you come alone? Where's your fiancée?"

"She's at home."

"She...tsk tsk, aren't you two going a bit too far?"

"About half a year ago, my grandparents wanted to match us up. We discussed it and realized that we were both of the right age and if we didn't dislike each other, it wouldn't be a bad idea."

"Did I ask that? I'm asking why you two didn't tell me. Isn't that a bit much?"

After ordering, Cheng Jinyan smiled and looked at her, "Didn't I tell you now?"

"You two are getting married and you're only telling me now? I'm going to make a scene."

Cheng Jinyan placed the strawberry cake in front of her and also ordered her a glass of orange juice.

"Sugar-free orange juice and low-sugar cake, right?"

Lin Wanwan took a bite of cake with satisfaction, "Don't think I'll let you off the hook like this, I'm still angry."

"Then eat something to vent your anger."

Lin Wanwan ate a small piece of cake and put down her spoon.

"Tell me, what's going on between you two?"

"As I just said, we don't dislike each other, we're not getting any younger, and both our families are very satisfied, so we're preparing to get married."

Lin Wanwan looked at him and said, "You two shouldn't treat marriage like a game."

"No, Bai Ying and I are very serious. We dated for half a year before deciding to get married. Besides, isn't she your best friend? Don't you trust her? Or do you not trust me?"

Lin Wanwan shook her head.
