Cheng Mingyue's name was far from reflecting her reality. She was the laziest, greediest, and fattest person in Baihe Brigade, earning her nicknames like "Fatty Cheng," "Fat Woman,&...
Seeing that Lu Chen’s expression was not right, Shen Shumin described the extremely clear dream again in detail.
Lu Chen's heart suddenly ached. He remembered that there was an educated youth from another village who had committed a serious mistake and was eventually transferred to a coal mine in the north to dig coal.
If he was also in the coal mine, he must have made a big mistake. What mistake could he have made?
He suddenly remembered a letter he had written before.
He remembered that he and Mingyue had just received their marriage certificate. When he said he wanted to send a letter, Mingyue's face suddenly changed drastically, and she dragged him onto the tractor.
If it weren't for Mingyue, he would have sent the letter because of grandpa's illness. As a result, he would have been betrayed by his father's friends and buried alive in the coal mine.
It was clearly the coldest time of the year, and the northwest wind was blowing hard enough to make people's faces hurt, but Lu Chen's forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat.
"Ah Chen, what's wrong with you? Don't scare Mom, okay?"
Seeing Lu Chen’s appearance, Shen Shumin was so frightened that she grabbed his arm tightly, and her face turned pale.
Lu Qizhou snatched the bicycle from Lu Chen's hand, propped it up on one side, and went around to the other side of Lu Chen to comfort him with concern.
"Ah Chen, it was just a dream, don't be afraid."
Lu Chen took a moment to calm down before squeezing out a few words from between his teeth: "Mom and Dad, if it weren't for Mingyue, I would really be dead by now."
"Ah Chen, what's going on?" Shen Shumin was so anxious that she burst into tears.
Lu Chen repeated what he had just thought, and finally added: "Dad, you must never trust that friend of yours in the future. You must remember my words."
Lu Qizhou and Shen Shumin were already numb at this time.
They didn't expect that such a small matter would have so many twists and turns.
That friend had been sticking around them a while ago, acting like they were as close as could be, but who knew he actually harbored so much filth inside.
However, the person they had been targeting had saved their family so many times that they felt that even if they gave her all their wealth, it would not be enough to express their gratitude.
After a while, the three of them lowered their heads and walked towards Baihe Brigade again, but they all became silent and didn't say another word.
Lu Qizhou and Shen Shumin have now begun to check their friends in their minds and decided to be more careful in judging people and never trust others easily again.
But Lu Chen was thinking about something else.
Mingyue’s big reaction to the letter at that time was definitely not a coincidence. Did she know something else?
He must find Mingyue to find out.
When the three of them arrived at Baihe Brigade, it was almost dark. The whole village was quiet and the gate of Cheng Mingyue's house had been closed long ago.
Lu Chen first signaled Lu Qizhou and Shen Shumin with his eyes to relax, and then he started knocking on the door.
The Cheng family was preparing to have dinner. When they heard the knock on the door, they all looked at Cheng Mingyue.
In the past two days, whenever there was a knock on the door, it was Lu Chen who opened it. They didn't have to guess at all now, it was 100% certain that it was him again.
Cheng Mingyue was also a little confused. Didn't Lu Chen say he would pick her up after the New Year? Why was he coming here now?!
"I'll go open the door and see what he wants?!"
Cheng Xiangnan placed his chopsticks and ran to open the door with an angry look on his face.
The Cheng family members hurriedly followed, fearing that Cheng Xiangnan, that idiot, would really beat Lu Chen again.
As soon as Cheng Xiangnan opened the door, he saw three people standing at the door carrying large and small bags.
He couldn't control the expression on his face, and he shouted inside: "Dad and Mom, come and see?!"
The Cheng family followed closely behind him and naturally saw the three people standing at the door. They were also a little overwhelmed.
In the end, Cheng Mingyue pushed through the crowd and stepped forward, politely calling out, "Hello, uncle and aunt!"
"Okay!" Lu Qizhou smiled awkwardly.
After Lu Qizhou finished speaking, he looked back and saw that his wife's eyes were full of stars.
It’s over!
The Shen family’s old problem has come back again!
Everyone in the Shen family is obsessed with looks and can't move their feet when they see someone good-looking.
Lu Qizhou has the most say in this.
When he was in college, he was entangled by Shen Shumin because of his good looks. In the end, he, a poor student, married Shen Shumin, the eldest daughter of the military region, with his good looks.
Lu Chen felt that he had made a wrong decision. He should have directly dragged his mother to Mingyue's house at that time. Just a meeting would have been enough to deal with it. There would have been no further problems.
He smiled sheepishly at Cheng Mingyue, then waved his hand in front of his mother: "Mom, come back to your senses!"
Shen Shumin woke up as if from a dream, raised her eyes and glanced at Cheng Mingyue again, then rushed towards Cheng Mingyue with a howl, shouting:
"Ah Chen, fairy, I saw a fairy!"
The Cheng family members took a deep breath, not knowing what expression to use to express their sympathy for Lu Chen.
"My mother is mentally normal. She just acts like this when she sees someone good-looking. Don't worry about her." Lu Chen continued, "Mom and Dad, there were actually some misunderstandings before. My parents were deceived. I brought them here to apologize to you."
Cheng Mingyue received Lu Chen's gaze, and combined with the meaning of his words, she immediately understood.
"Come in first and talk."
As soon as everyone sat down at the table, Lu Chen and the other two's stomachs started growling.
Lu Chen smiled awkwardly: "We haven't eaten all day today."
Shen Shumin and Lu Qizhou hurriedly nodded.
The village chief and his family had no temper left at all. They warmly invited them to eat first and talk about other things after the meal.
The three of them were indeed very hungry, so they didn't hesitate any longer and picked up their chopsticks to start eating.
Lu Chen was fine, after all, he used to eat the meals cooked by Cheng Mingyue every day, but Shen Shumin and Lu Qizhou's eyes widened as soon as they took a bite with their chopsticks.
This is so delicious.
They have eaten all kinds of delicious food over the years, but no meal has ever been as good as this one chopstick.
Although today is not the New Year’s Eve dinner, the Cheng family has prepared a very sumptuous meal.
In the past two years, every household has raised task pigs, and they can get a lot of money every year, and their lives have become much better.
In addition, Cheng Mingyue would occasionally release fish, rabbits and pheasants from her space into the village rivers and mountains. As long as everyone worked hard throughout the year, they could eat a lot of meat.
It is especially indispensable on the Cheng family’s dining table, which is almost full of various meat dishes.
After the meal, Shen Shumin and Lu Qizhou started calling each other "brother", "sister-in-law", "nephew", "niece-in-law" and "grandson".
Of course, the most common names are "Ming Yue", "Yue Yue", "Yue Er" and "Yue Yatou"!
The Cheng family looked at each other in confusion.
Didn’t Lu Chen’s parents look down on rural people and his daughter Yue’er?
Who will tell them that this is not a good look?
