Tian's mother was surprised: "So soon, I don't know anything about your family situation, how many brothers and sisters you have, how your parents are doing, I don't know anything, this engagement, isn't it a bit of a joke?"
Lu Heng also knew that he was a little anxious, but he didn't have much vacation time. If he didn't get it done this time, he didn't know when he would be able to ask for leave next time. He was not young anymore and didn't want to wait any longer.
"Aunt, I have three older sisters and I am the only son in my family. My parents are in very poor health and are simple and honest people.
My mother gave birth to three daughters in succession. She suffered a lot and was scolded a lot at the hands of my grandmother.
It wasn't until I was born that life became a little easier.
She has experienced the pain of the older generation's preference for boys over girls. She said that even if her daughter-in-law only gives birth to daughters in the future, she will not be angry and will not want grandchildren.
She also said that her three daughters were all very kind to her, no worse than her sons.
On the contrary, those families with many sons have a very chaotic life.”
After hearing this, Tian's mother felt relieved: "You didn't lie to me?"
Lu Heng said sincerely: "Aunt, you are my future mother-in-law, how dare I lie to you!
Let’s talk about it later.
Miaomiao is Chen Mengyao's friend.
If I dare to lie to you, she will chop me to pieces."
Tian's mother believed him and said, "Mr. Tian, bring the matchmaker home tomorrow."
When Lu Heng was about to leave, Tian's mother brought him some fruit: "I heard from Miaomiao that you were staying at Xiaoye's house. Take this and eat it with me."
Lu Heng did not refuse: "Of course, thank you, mother-in-law."
It was the first time someone called her that, and Tian's mother blushed: "We're not even engaged yet, it's too early for you to call me that."
"It's not too early. Practice your voice so that you can shout more skillfully in the future." When Lu Heng said this, he was not at all slick, but very sincere, which made Tian's mother feel warm in her heart.
"What time will you come tomorrow?"
"About ninety."
"We'll take tomorrow off then."
After leaving Tian's house, Lu Heng went to the post office again.
Originally he didn't know where the post office was. It was Tian Miaomiao who told him on the way here.
This point.
There are very few people at the post office and no need to queue.
He paid the money, got the bill, and called the village.
After the call was connected, he asked the village chief to call his mother to answer the phone.
Mother Lu ran all the way to the village chief's house. She picked up the microphone on the table and said, "Hello, who is this?"
Lu Heng: "Mom, I'm Lu Heng. I've found a partner and we're getting engaged in the next few days. Please come to Baiwu Town, Tong County."
Mother Lu was so shocked that she almost dropped the phone: "Why didn't you give me a definite answer before when I urged you to?
But now a bomb is suddenly dropped on me.
Fourth brother, I haven't prepared anything, and you want me to go to the girl's family. Isn't this embarrassing?
"Old Four, when did you become so unstable in your work?"
Lu Heng: "I only have a few days off. If I don't finalize this matter, who knows when the next time will be.
I was able to take leave this time because my boss gave it to me because I was solving a personal problem. Normally, I wouldn't be given leave."
Mother Lu wanted to chat more, but she was afraid of the high phone bill. So, she kept it short: "What's her family like? How many siblings does she have? What's her education level?"
"She is the youngest of four children in her family. Not only is she a high school graduate, she's also a mother."
