"Why did you buy this thing for me, kid? It's so expensive. You should save the money for yourself." Although Li Xianglian was happy, she also felt sorry for her daughter's high expenses here and that she might not have enough money in the future.

Lin Lu did spend a lot of money to buy gifts for everyone this time, but after all, it was her first formal salary, so she was happy to give everyone a little surprise.

"Money is earned to be spent. If I buy it for you, you should wear it. You don't have any jewelry. When my brother and sister-in-law get married, you should wear something nice to give them face."

Li Xianglian: You’re right. The second half of my daughter’s words really touched her heart.

"Okay, Mom will accept it. Don't buy me any more in the future. Your brother and Xiaoye have also bought me a lot, and I can't use them all."

All old people are like this, so Lin Lu didn't take her words to heart and took the gifts for his father, brother and sister-in-law.

I bought a pair of leather shoes for Lin Changchun, a watch for Lin Cheng, and a lipstick for Ye Qianyu.

"This is all my love, you are not allowed to say you don't like it." Lin Lu put his hands on his hips and joked playfully.

Ye Qianyu immediately opened the box and applied a smear on her lips. "I like it, how could I not like it, sister? You understand me too well. How did you know that I just needed a lipstick of this color?"

Lin Lu often saw her wearing bright red, but this time she specially chose one with an orange hue, which made her look sweet and lively. It was a very careful choice.

"As long as you like it, sister."

Lin Cheng and Lin Changchun also tried their gifts and expressed their love for them.

Lin Changchun wiped his eyes and sighed, "Time flies so fast. My little girl can earn money to buy me gifts."

Li Xianglian elbowed him and said, "When does your daughter never buy you a gift? You are so heartless."

It was awkward. The emotions that had been brewing for so long were burst like bubbles. Lin Changchun said, "Okay, okay, I was wrong. Dad is so happy. Thank you for the gift from my daughter."

Lin Lu said sincerely: "If everyone is happy, I am happy too."

Ye Qianyu: "You bought it for us all. What about you? Did you treat yourself?"

Lin Lu: "Don't worry, I've already bought it."

Lin Cheng glanced at the time and asked, "Do you want to eat at home or go out?"

Ye Qianyu suggested: "Let's go out. Everyone is tired from the car ride and has no energy to cook. Besides, there probably isn't any food at home."

Lin Cheng: "Okay, you guys take a rest first. I'll go out and buy it and bring it back."

My parents may have just arrived here and don’t really want to go out to eat.

Lin Lu responded positively, "Brother, I'll go with you."

Li Xianglian: "Okay, then you two brothers can go."

Ye Qianyu just felt tired and did not go out with the brother and sister. She took the two old people into the room prepared for them.

Li Xianglian didn't even let her make the bed and sent her back to rest.

My daughter-in-law grew up in a wealthy family and she certainly didn't have to do these chores since she was a child. The two of them are not the kind of old people who would stir up trouble or hate to see their children have an easy life. I won't bother them with things I can do myself.

…

"Did you spend New Year's Eve with him in the army?" Lin Cheng put his left hand on Lin Lu's shoulder, not missing a single change in her expression.

Lin Lu was frank and didn't hide anything: "Well, didn't he call you already?"

Lin Cheng wanted to hit someone just thinking about this. Song Chen did call to report it to him, but what he said was very infuriating - "Brother, I'm worried about Lin Lulu spending the New Year alone at home. It just so happens that I have a day off today, so I want to bring her to our company to spend the New Year with everyone."

When Lin Cheng asked him how many days he would take her, he began to act out his own story, "Hey, little brother, what did you say? Say it again. Is it snowing? Why is the signal so bad? Little brother, little brother, are you still talking? The signal is so bad. Did you hang up already? That's it, I'm hanging up too."

The signal was bad at all. Lin Cheng heard every word of his conversation clearly.

Seriously, I really want to crawl along the telephone line and blow his head off.

"He only had New Year's Eve and the first day of the New Year off. I had a lot of things to do here, so I came back on the third day."

Lin Cheng nodded and encouraged, "The conditions there are definitely not as good as back home. Going there will only lead to suffering. Go less often in the future."

Lin Lu found it funny. Her brother sounded like a child. How could he persuade a couple to separate?

"Indeed, there are only bathhouses for taking a shower. At home, you have to boil water yourself. The toilet is very small and not very convenient. There is no heating. When you take off your clothes, you shiver with cold. There is no air conditioning in the living room or the room, and I often feel a chill on my back."

He was saying all sorts of unfamiliar words, but his face was filled with a happy smile.

Because Song Chen would always boil water for her and warm the bed, and let her lie down immediately after she finished washing. He would then help her wipe her hair at the head of the bed and help her wash and hang up her clothes.

His body is always warm, and I don't feel cold at all when I hold him in my arms at night.

When he got up in the morning, he would light the stove and keep it burning brightly. When she got up, the whole house would be warm.

She didn't even have to prepare three meals a day. He got up early in the morning and cooked for her as well. Sometimes he went to the cafeteria to get lunch and dinner.

He would prepare snacks and fruits for her and quietly accompany her while she read.

Lin Cheng: "I'll buy you a house next year and let him come here to accompany you."

He had this idea a long time ago and had talked about it frankly with Ye Qianyu. She did not object and expressed her support for Lin Cheng's approach. She believed that as a brother who was capable, it was his duty to provide a better life for his sister.

Besides, she likes her sister-in-law Lin Lu very much.

Lin Lu shook his head. "No need. It's not easy for you, brother. The company needs a lot of money at the beginning. Song Chen and I have been saving up slowly. Hopefully, we can buy a house next year."

Lin Cheng knew his sister's personality and took a step back. "Then I'll give you the down payment, and you two can repay the loan yourselves. Lulu, don't refuse. You're grown up now and need me less and less. I don't even feel like a real brother anymore."

Lin Lu still felt guilty about getting married secretly. "Okay, brother, you're so nice. I'll buy you a house when I make money."

Song Chen: "Why don't you come to our company and work as a legal officer after graduation?"

Lin Lu refused outright. "My teacher has recommended me an internship at a fantastic firm. I might want to stay there after graduation, but of course I'd like to work while studying for my master's degree."

Lin Cheng asked, "Have you applied for admission to graduate school?"

Lin Lu was a little proud: "Well, I've already applied. According to the quota ratio, my grades are good enough to get in."

Lin Cheng felt relieved when he heard that his sister had a clear plan for her future.

After many people fall in love, their careers and plans are easily influenced by their partner. Lin Cheng was afraid that she would go astray, but fortunately, this girl was sober.
