The courtyard instantly became lively; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say it was a chaotic scene of chickens and dogs running wild.

Lu Zhaolin disappeared gracefully, while Song Qinghe stared in disbelief at the scene before her, unsure of what to say.

Are they serious?

Cui Mingzhen, on the other hand, was unfazed, clearly having witnessed such scenes countless times.

So it doesn't matter at all; let the father and son make a fuss if they want.

Once they've had enough of the commotion, they'll stop.

There are some things I need to explain to my daughter-in-law properly, otherwise she might misunderstand.

Zhou Wanru quickly said, "Qinghe, although this kid's words are unpleasant to hear, one thing is true: we can't stay here too long, we still have work to do."

"In my opinion, I hope you can take some time to come with us to Beijing, so you can also get to know your family."

"No, she's busy!" Lu Zhaolin was listening nearby, and when he heard that they were going to take his wife away without saying a word, he immediately became unhappy.

He finally managed to chase them away, and they immediately turned around and tried to kidnap Song Qinghe.

Is this reasonable?

Absolutely not, he doesn't have that kind of good temper.

Zhou Wanru glared at him with disdain. She hadn't even finished speaking yet, so why was Lu Zhaolin in such a hurry?

Look at his attitude, he's really worried that he'll run away with Song Qinghe.

Lu Zhaolin asked with a serious expression, "You all have things to do, but doesn't she have anything to do?"

“We are both very busy. I wanted her to come with me to join the military, but she didn’t have time.”

Zhou Wanru suppressed the urge to hit Lu Zhaolin on the head and said irritably, "Lu Zhaolin, you'd better shut up from now on, or you'll force me to deal with you!"

"Qinghe, don't listen to his nonsense. What I mean is, if you don't have time, then forget it. We can talk about it during the New Year."

She wasn't the kind of unreasonable mother-in-law who would force her daughter-in-law to come over when she wasn't available.

Zhou Wanru had already thought it through. Her family would all be free during the Chinese New Year, so it would be nice to get together at that time.

Song Qinghe can come back whenever she wants, depending on her schedule.

Lu Zhaolin shut up. If he didn't want to go with the army, he wouldn't go. He could come back to Lujia Village a few more times to see them.

If his mother takes him to Beijing, then he won't be able to see her even if he wants to.

Lu Zhaolin felt a chill run down his spine just thinking about it.

Lu Zhengguo and Lu Dongzheng were also tired and were taking a break during halftime.

When the old man heard them decide Song Qinghe's whereabouts in just a few words, he was immediately displeased.

Lu Zhengguo: "If you want to go back, then go back. I'm not going back. I want to stay here and retire!"

"Dad, if you're not going back, what about Xiao Chen? Isn't Xiao Chen going back either?" Lu Dongzheng advised helplessly. His father was becoming more and more difficult to deal with.

They felt more at ease knowing he was in Beijing.

If someone is here alone, and something happens, even if they wanted to help, they wouldn't be able to.

Lu Zhengguo glanced at him but didn't say anything.

Even if the King of Heaven himself came, it wouldn't matter if he didn't want to do something.

Song Qinghe sat quietly eating her melon while holding her rice bowl. See? This is what you call family status.

Whatever the old man says goes.

She should learn from this in the future, as a way to gain experience in advance, and she can't be careless.

Lu Zhaolin said, "Grandpa, do you think Second Uncle knows you went back to your hometown? If he does..."
