When Lin Qingyan hugged Lu Zhengting, she noticed that his body wasn't as stiff as it used to be when she deliberately teased him.
His leg healed, he became more confident, and he no longer needed to hide his feelings.
She pressed her face against his back, feeling very happy.
She wasn't the only one feeling happy at that moment; the man in front of her was practically bursting with happiness.
He sat in front of the car, and no one saw that the corners of his mouth never left his mouth from the moment he got on.
After they returned to the brigade, Lu Zhengting first took Lin Qingyan home, where Lin Zhiheng and Grandma Lin were waiting for her at the door.
"Sister, you're back."
Grandma Lin hurried up to Lin Qingyan and said, "Oh my, girl, you're finally back! It's so dark already. If you hadn't come back soon, I was worried that some shameless guy would have kidnapped you."
The "shameless guy" she was referring to was, of course, Lu Zhengting.
Lu Zhengting frowned. "That guy" is fine, but why add "shameless" before it?
He dared not be angry with Granny Lin, and said with a smile, "Granny, you're joking. I would sell anyone but her."
How could he bear to part with his future wife?
Even if they were to abduct someone, they would abduct them to their own home.
Lin Qingyan was going home with her grandmother, Lin Zhiheng. Lu Zhengting said goodbye to them and went back to the brigade leader's house.
There were also four or five people standing in a row in front of the team leader's house.
There was the brigade leader, Grandma Li, Mother Lu, Li Qinqin, and Li Fang.
As soon as they saw Lu Zhengting, they immediately inquired about his examination at the county hospital.
Lu Zhengting shared the good news with them, "The X-rays taken at the hospital show that my leg is fine now, and I just need to rest for a few more days."
"Really? That's great."
"Sister Qingyan's medical skills are indeed superb," Li Qinqin said.
Grandma Li was so excited that she couldn't help but wipe away her tears.
"Okay, finally it's done."
"Mother, this is all thanks to my second future daughter-in-law. Where is your granddaughter-in-law?"
Grandma Li nodded and said with a smile, "Now that Zheng Ting's leg is healed, it's time to get a divorce certificate. Xiao Lin is beautiful and outstanding; it's better to avoid any unforeseen complications and have her snatched away by someone else."
Upon hearing this, the people around were all stunned for a moment.
Isn't this old lady in a bit too much of a hurry?
But thinking about it, their anxiety is quite reasonable.
Mother Lu said, "Mom, it's not just you who's anxious, we've been anxious for a long time too. But, getting married is a big deal, we can't just make the decision ourselves. We have to see what Xiao Lin, the educated youth, thinks, and see if she wants to get married so early."
Grandma Li knew that young people nowadays weren't like they were back then; they didn't get married as early.
She nodded. "Okay, okay, let's settle on a date first. As for when to get married, you can discuss that yourselves."
The group was taken aback again. The old lady's words about "setting things up" probably meant that Lu Zhengting and Lin Qingyan should officially become a couple.
After they got home, Lu Zhengting went to put away his bicycle, and his mother and Li Qinqin both approached him with gossipy expressions.
Lu's mother asked mysteriously, "Why did you and Xiao Lin, the educated youth, come back so late? The moon is already so high in the sky."
Didn't you do anything on the way?
Did you confess your feelings to that girl? Or after you confessed, did you do anything like kissing, hugging, or lifting her up high?
Li Qinqin strained her ears to hear how her cousin would respond.
Lu Zhengting could almost see the burning gossip flames in their eyes.
"Mom, Qinqin. Qingyan and I went to the supply and marketing cooperative and then to the state-run restaurant, so we came back late."
Lu's mother immediately gave her son a thumbs up.
His son really got it and knew how to treat the young girl well.
"Okay, well done. So, have you confessed your feelings to that girl? Are you sure you want to be in a relationship?"
Lu Zhengting raised his hand and scratched his head, looking somewhat troubled. "Not yet. I just don't know what to say to her when I confess my feelings."
Suddenly, Lu's mother remembered the way Lu's father pursued her when she was young.
"Speaking of this, Mom has some experience. Mom can pass on all of your dad's methods to you."
Lu Zhengting remained noncommittal, because his father seemed like a dull and wooden old man, what new tricks could he possibly have up his sleeve?
However, he also wondered if his seemingly dull and rigid father had any tricks up his sleeve when it came to pursuing women.
"Mom, I can listen to that. Come inside later and tell me all about it."
"good."
Once inside, Lu's mother told her son all about the way Lu's father had pursued her back then.
Lu Zhengting shook his head repeatedly after hearing this.
Every time his father went to see his mother, he would put vegetable oil on his hair to groom himself, but his mother could always smell it.
His father would always send flowers to his mother. If there were wildflowers in the wild, he would send them; if there were no wildflowers, he would simply make paper flowers for his mother. As a result, his mother complained: "If you didn't know we were dating, you would think you were sending me a wreath."
His father wanted to give his mother a dress, but the family was too poor to afford it, so he took his own clothes, had them altered, and then gave them to his mother.
So much so that when his mother went out wearing that dress, a woman suddenly jumped out, saw the three words "Lu Zhendong" embroidered on her chest, and yelled at her: "What is your relationship with Zhendong? Why are you wearing his clothes?"
