Chapter 93 Fang Shuying's Demonstration

When Lu's father saw the person standing at the door, he rubbed his eyes again, still unable to believe it: "Fourth son?"

What's going on this year?

In previous years, it was considered good if one of their four sons came home each year; usually, the elderly couple would spend the New Year alone.

This year, first the third brother got married after leaving the military, and the eldest brother even came back for a visit.

Lu Xiangdong had initially said that he would have a holiday until the Lantern Festival, a rare long holiday, but he was still unexpectedly called away.

I've been at home for five or six days now, and with the travel time, it's been at least ten days.

Then the third brother returned, bringing not only his wife but also a pregnant woman.

As it turned out, the third brother and his wife had only been back for a day when the fourth brother also returned.

Mr. Lu suspected that perhaps he had been talking about his unfilial sons too much, and some passing deity had overheard him, which was why all four children had been sent back.

Lu's mother subconsciously looked behind Lu Xiangbei: "Did you come back alone?"

Lu Xiangbei glanced at Jiang Jiani and immediately knew what was going on: "Don't look, there's no one else, it's just me."

He blinked: "Is this my third sister-in-law?"

Jiang Jianni and Lu Xiangyang sat together, their expressions quite intimate, making their relationship immediately apparent.

He didn't quite understand Lu Xiangnan and the person next to him.

If you say they're comrades-in-arms, their relationship seems a bit too close; if you say they're related, they're both men.

He subconsciously wanted to see if Tang Tian had an Adam's apple.

Lu Xiangnan said casually, "Don't just call her Third Sister-in-law, call her Second Sister-in-law too."

He patted Tang Tian on the shoulder: "See this? Your second sister-in-law, Tang Tian."

“That’s your third sister-in-law, Jiang Jiani.”

He looked at Lu Xiangbei and sighed dramatically, "Si'er, you're already twenty-five. When are you going to bring a wife home?"

Lu Xiangbei glanced at him dismissively, completely ignoring him: "Dad, Mom, I'm going upstairs to put something away."

As she spoke, she picked up her suitcase and bag and went upstairs.

Lu's mother sighed, "The fourth son is still the same. When will he ever find a girlfriend?"

Jiang Jiani wanted to laugh.

Lu's mother had given up on urging her four sons to get married, but Lu Xiangnan and Lu Xiangyang got married one after another, which gave her confidence, and she started to set her sights on Lu Xiangbei again.

Lu's father was optimistic: "Even a monkey like the second son can find a wife, so our fourth son is a researcher, he'll definitely find a partner too."

He gave Lu Xiangnan a disdainful look:

"Researchers are all precious treasures."

“I heard that if they can’t find a partner on their own, the government will arrange one for them.”

"Don't worry, no one will stay single, Fourth Brother."

This is also why they haven't been urging Lu Xiangbei to get married much – they're just waiting for Lu Xiangbei to get a wife from the country when he's older.

Jiang Jianni quickly turned her face behind Lu Xiangyang and chuckled a few times.

When she turned around, she saw Tang Tian wink at her.

Jiang Jiani's face immediately flushed.

Why.

What was that saying again?

Husband is not a gender, but a feeling.

Perhaps because they were both women, Tang Tian always subconsciously took care of Tang Tian.

For example, helping her pull out a chair, clearing away her dishes, and stopping any potential accidents when the elderly couple were hitting Lu Xiangnan.

In less than a day, Jiang Jianni had already gained a deep understanding of this sentence.

Even knowing that Tang Tian was already a mother-to-be, she would still blush and her heart would race if Tang Tian smiled at her.

Lu Xiangyang observed and remembered their interaction.

I've decided to kick my second son and his wife out as soon as the New Year is over.

Although Lu Xiangdong was not there, the Lu family had a rare reunion, and the house suddenly became much more lively.

In particular, both Lu Xiangnan and Lu Xiangbei have close friends in Pingyang City.

I heard they were back, and people kept coming to see them until New Year's Eve.

Jiang Jianni experienced firsthand the lively atmosphere of a large family.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, everyone got up early to exchange New Year's greetings.

After the young members of the Lu family returned from paying their New Year's visits, the five who had gone out had become eight—three of the brothers' friends had also returned.

Lu's parents had already set up a mahjong table with their friends and were having a great time.

The young people played cards. Eight people played Dou Dizhu with two decks of cards, and soon everyone had a piece of paper stuck to their face.

Just as everyone was having a great time, Fang Shuying arrived with a tall, refined-looking young man who wore glasses.

She glanced around as she entered, then smiled and said, "Uncle Lu, Aunt Tang, Ah Sheng and I have come to wish you a Happy New Year."

A million years later, her gaze swept over Lu Xiangyang and Jiang Jianni, then she nestled close to Asheng, clinging to his arm like a little bird seeking shelter.

"Oh, I forgot to introduce you first. This is Ah Sheng, full name Chan Kong-sang, from Hong Kong. He is my college classmate at America University and the love of my life."

Mr. Lu looked puzzled: "You, didn't you go back to school? Why are you back again?"

He looked disapproving: "It costs a lot to get from here to America. Now that you're going back, you should finish your studies."

"You've been back for three days already. How much money do your parents have for you to waste like this?"

It's not easy to go abroad these days; the round-trip airfare and train tickets alone can cost tens of thousands of yuan.

Although the Fang family was well-off, they couldn't afford Fang Shuying's frequent trips back and forth.

Mr. Lu felt that he should have a good talk with Mr. Fang and Mr. Su.

After all, he watched Fang Shuying grow up.

I absolutely do not want my old friend to end up ruining himself because of his child.

Lu's mother thought much more than Lu's father, but she didn't show it. Instead, she smiled and said, "Oh, I knew you had high standards, Shuying. I didn't expect you to find such a good partner."

Is this your partner's first time visiting here?

"There are so many fun places around here! Have you taken Ah Sheng out to explore?"

Fang Shuying's expression immediately changed.

She could tell.

That old hag is trying to get rid of her.

Just as she was about to say something, Chan Kong-sang gently pinched her arm.

Fang Shuying paused for a moment, then remained silent.

Chen Gangsheng smiled and said, "Yes, I've heard Shuying mention her hometown many times. She said the scenery here is exceptionally beautiful and well worth visiting."

"Uncle and Aunt, we still have a few more families to visit, so we won't bother you any longer."

After they left, everyone present was speechless.

What happened when Lu Xiangyang and Jiang Jiani got married; so many people were there.

The news spread like wildfire, and everyone, whether they knew each other or not, knew that Fang Shuying had specially traveled back from abroad to try and steal the bride, but had failed.

When Lu Xiangnan and Lu Xiangbei returned and met up with their buddies, the first thing they heard was about Fang Shuying disrupting Lu Xiangyang's wedding.

Lu Xiangnan was somewhat speechless: "Seriously, how dare she come to our house?"

Moreover, she stared at Lu Xiangyang and Jiang Jiani for a while. What did she mean by that?

So you come to their house to show off after finding a partner?

Is this necessary?

Isn't that childish?
