Chapter 62 It doesn’t matter what others think

Jiang Haitang had no idea that Lu Liangchen had planned it all clearly.

She couldn't persuade him, so she had to give up.

The two of them bought a lot of things, and with the addition of a sewing machine, they simply couldn't carry it all.

"Wait a moment, I'll find a tricycle to help us take it back." Lu Liangchen said.

"How about I buy some more vegetables and cook at home tonight?"

Jiang Haitang has been eating from the same pot since she came to the factory, and she is a little tired of it.

Although the big pot meal is delicious, cooking by yourself has a more homely feel.

"good!"

Lu Liangchen immediately agreed, took out his wallet again, took out several bills from it and stuffed them into Jiang Haitang's pockets.

"This is the meat ticket I saved during this period. I'll give it all to you."

Jiang Haitang: ...

Director Lu is so generous, he gives us tickets for everything.

Jiang Haitang's grain and oil book has been processed, and she happened to bring it with her when she went out today.

She bought rice, flour, grain and oil at the grocery counter. It was already afternoon and there were not many vegetables left, so she bought a cabbage, a handful of beans, two eggplants, and the last small piece of meat, and then returned to the door of the supply and marketing cooperative to meet Lu Liangchen.

I didn’t think it was a lot when I bought it, but after I finished buying it, the tricycle was almost full.

The tricycle driver was a middle-aged man in his forties who helped them move their things onto the tricycle.

"You are a newlywed couple, right? Buying all these things will surely make your life better."

"Master, you misunderstood. We are colleagues." This time, Jiang Haitang answered the question first.

The tricycle driver was embarrassed and scratched his head for a long time, not knowing how to answer.

He clearly thought the two of them were a good match, so how could he have guessed wrong?

The tricycle driver's embarrassment made the atmosphere a little strange.

Jiang Haitang then realized that it was just as Director Lu had said, it would be better not to explain.

Perhaps because of embarrassment, the tricycle driver pedaled very fast, and Jiang Haitang and Lu Liangchen had to jog to keep up with him.

Fortunately, the family compound was not too far away. When they arrived at the compound, Jiang Haitang was out of breath, but Lu Liangchen was as calm as ever, not at all nervous or short of breath.

Jiang Haitang was breathing heavily while Lu Liangchen was busy unloading the goods.

He was very strong and he hurriedly moved everything that needed to be moved to Jiang Haitang's house before he started to move the sewing machine.

Then he paid the tricycle driver another twenty cents.

When Jiang Haitang stopped breathing, she heard Lu Liangchen calling her in the room.

"Haitang, look, how about putting the sewing machine in the living room? It's next to the window, so it's bright."

As expected, men still don’t know how to live. Jiang Haitang rushed in to stop them.

"Director Lu, don't tear it down yet. Just leave it like this until you...it's as good as new."

Jiang Haitang vaguely mentioned the word "marriage".

For some reason, she felt like these two words were burning her lips and she couldn't say them.

"Waiting for what? When I get married?" Lu Liangchen asked Jiang Haitang with a faint smile.

"I don't even have a partner right now, and I don't know when I'm going to get married."

After saying that, without waiting for Jiang Haitang to say anything else, he quickly opened the packaging of the sewing machine.

Well, there’s no need to persuade Jiang Haitang anymore.

At this time, the sewing machine had to be installed by oneself. Lu Liangchen didn't waste any time and started tinkering with it with the instruction manual.

Jiang Haitang felt too embarrassed to just stand there stupidly, so she turned around and went to the Kong family next door to pick up Xiao Taozi.

Little Taozi sat listlessly on a small bench in the yard, staring at the gate.

The moment she saw Jiang Haitang, Xiao Taozi immediately jumped up and flew over like a little cannonball and threw herself into Jiang Haitang's arms.

"Mom, you're here?"

The baby's voice has a crying tone. If you don't know, you might think the child is being wronged.

Aunt Kong was also anxious and hurried to explain.

"Haitang, I haven't wronged the child. It's just that she's very thoughtful. She only recognizes you and Director Lu, and she's afraid that you won't want her."

"When you were here, she and Erni were having so much fun playing together. But when you were not around, she didn't play or talk either. I offered her cookies and candies to coax her, but she didn't even smile. She just sat there waiting for you."

Jiang Haitang hurriedly thanked Aunt Kong.

"Auntie, I know. Thank you so much today."

"Why are you being so polite?" Aunt Kong said immediately, "The child is sleepy and has been waiting for you. He won't sleep no matter what. Take him back and let him sleep."

After Jiang Haitang thanked him again, she carried Xiao Taozi out.

Before they reached the door of the house, little Taozi, who was already extremely sleepy, tilted her head and fell asleep in her arms.

Jiang Haitang felt both amused and sad, and her movements became gentler.

Lu Liangchen saw Jiang Haitang carrying the sleeping little Taozi in and said with a smile, "Why did you bring her in when she was asleep?"

Jiang Haitang repeated what Aunt Kong had said and said, "Look, he fell asleep before he even got home."

"Please carry him in." Lu Liangchen reached out to take the child.

"Changing hands will easily wake her up. Director Lu, go to the bedroom and put the pillows in place. I'll just carry her in."

Lu Liangchen hurriedly walked into the small room with his long legs and placed the small pillow in the middle of the bed.

Jiang Haitang carefully put Xiao Taozi on the bed. Xiao Taozi was startled and murmured, "Mom, please don't leave me."

Jiang Haitang felt sad when she heard this, and patted her gently, "Mom is here, she will accompany you, Xiao Taozi, go to sleep obediently."

Perhaps feeling the warmth from her mother, little Taozi fell into a deep sleep.

Jiang Haitang stood up and saw Lu Liangchen still standing in the room, staring at her infatuatedly.

"Director Lu..."

"You're a good mother."

Jiang Haitang smiled bitterly, she might be a good mother.

However, in her previous life, she was deprived of the right to be a mother and died without a child.

In this life, if she gets rid of Lee Seung-ri, will she have her own children?

"Director Lu, please don't mind Xiao Taozi calling me mom. I didn't teach her to call me that."

Jiang Haitang felt that she had to talk this matter over with Lu Liangchen. It would be bad if Lu Liangchen thought she had any intentions towards him.

"I know, it was Xiao Taozi who liked you, and you corrected her at the beginning."

Lu Liangchen was actually quite proud of this.

Otherwise, why do we say that a daughter is a father’s warm and sweet little cotton-padded jacket?

Xiao Taozi even knew to help him find a wife.

"We all live in the staff quarters now. Xiao Taozi is yelling like that, and I'm worried..."

"There's nothing to worry about. Others can misunderstand if they want to. As long as the two of us are clear about it, that's fine."

Lu Liangchen immediately stopped Jiang Haitang from continuing.

It would be better if it were just a misunderstanding!

He couldn't ask for more.

"I'll cook dinner tonight, and you and Xiao Taozi can come over to eat."

Now that the matter has been brought up, Jiang Haitang wants to go home and pack up the things she bought today.

Lu Liangchen nodded.

When Jiang Haitang returned home, she first ventilated the honeycomb coal stove to boil water, and then packed up the things she had bought today and put them back in their places.

The water in the kettle was already boiling. She washed the newly bought pots, pans and plates with boiling water and started cooking.

In the evening, I make rice and braised pork, stir-fry cabbage with vinegar, and stir-fry green beans.

Lu Liangchen wiped the sweat from his forehead and carefully tightened the last screw of the sewing machine.

He considered himself a capable man, but installing a sewing machine was not really his forte and it took him a lot of effort.

When he straightened up, the aroma of braised pork wafting from next door was so strong that he could even hear the gurgling sound of the stew.

The rich aroma of stewed meat mixed with the sour aroma of pickled cabbage and the crispy aroma of stir-fried beans made my empty stomach rumble.

Lu Liangchen touched his stomach and felt really hungry.

Little Taozi was also attracted by the meaty smell. She got up from the bed, swiftly jumped down from the bed, ran to the door barefoot, rubbed her sleepy eyes with her little hands, and said, "Mommy, meat."

Lu Liangchen couldn't help but smile when he saw his daughter's eyes shining with the smell of meat.

But when he saw the little girl standing on the ground barefoot, he quickly picked her up and put her back on the bed.

"Why did you come down without shoes? You'll easily catch a cold."

He muttered as he put shoes on the little girl.

The two people here hadn't finished packing yet, and Jiang Haitang was already standing at the door.

"Director Lu, it's time to eat." Jiang Haitang stood at the door wearing an apron.

Xiao Taozi immediately rushed over and hugged Jiang Haitang.
