Grandma Lu nodded. "He not only fell in love with her, but he also wanted to marry her. Luckily, Xiao Ding saw him submitting the marriage application and immediately told me."
Shen Mengya probably couldn't bear it anymore, and tears streamed down her face.
"Grandma, Grandma, my brother Zhengting has fallen in love with someone else, and he's going to marry her. Grandma, what should I do?"
Grandma Lu hugged her.
“Mengya, don’t be sad. Grandma is still here. She won’t abandon this matter. Don’t worry. As long as I have a breath left, I will not let him marry that girl. He can only marry you.”
"But, but... Zheng Ting is always very opinionated. What if he doesn't listen to Grandma?"
Grandma Lu gave a deep snort, "Don't worry, I have plenty of ways."
Shen Mengya nodded. After receiving comfort from the old lady, she became very curious about who that girl was and how she could catch Lu Zhengting's eye.
She thought she was excellent in every way, but Lu Zhengting just didn't like her. What kind of girl was she that stole Lu Zhengting's heart?
"Grandma, who is this girl who is going to marry Zhengting?"
Mrs. Lu then realized, "I was so angry when I heard the news that I didn't ask for details. I'll call Xiao Ding again later to find out the situation. I also need to tell him to try to hold back Zheng Ting's marriage application and not approve it yet. We must find a way to make Zheng Ting give up on this girl."
Shen Mengya thought for a moment. If she and Old Madam Lu insisted on preventing Lu Zhengting from marrying someone else, Lu Zhengting would definitely think that she had instigated the old lady, and he would hate her in the future.
But she couldn't care less about anything else; all she wanted was Lu Zhengting. Only by being with Lu Zhengting would she feel happy.
Even after they got together, she put in more effort and used her gentleness and kindness to slowly warm him up.
Even if Lu Zhengting doesn't marry her, he can't marry another girl, otherwise she'll be heartbroken.
Grandma Lu quickly dialed the military region again. Regiment Commander Ding answered the phone and instructed him to try to suppress the marriage application. Then he asked him about Lin Qingyan's situation.
After hanging up the phone, she told Shen Mengya, "I asked around, and that Lin Qingyan was an educated youth who went to the countryside to work in Mopan Village. It just so happens that Zhengting's maternal grandmother's family lived in Mopan Village. Perhaps Zhengting met her when he visited his relatives. I don't know what kind of seductive tricks she used to seduce Zhengting."
"Grandma, what should we do?"
"Marriage is always a major decision that parents must make. We'll go find the second son in a bit and have him call Zheng Ting to stop this."
Just as they were about to go out, a young woman in her twenties came in, carrying a bag of apples, cookies, and candy.
The person who came was Lu Zhengting's older sister, Lu Xinping.
"Grandma, Mengya, where are you going?"
Grandma Lu didn't give Lu Xinping a friendly look. She didn't like this granddaughter much to begin with, and now that she had just learned that Lu Zhengting was going to marry someone else, she couldn't help but feel angry at people related to Lu Zhengting, so her face became even longer.
"Don't worry about where we go, you're too nosy."
Lu Xinping was already used to the old lady's cold words. She knew that the old lady did not like her. Her uncle's family had two cousins, but the old lady's favorite was Shen Mengya, followed by her uncle's two cousins. She was the least favored one.
She didn't care whether the old lady liked her or not. The fact that she came to see her was just a formality out of respect for her father and grandfather, so as to avoid the old lady finding fault with the second branch of the family.
She put her things in the living room and said, "Grandma, since you're going out, I won't keep you any longer."
Anyway, she had no intention of sitting down and chatting with the old lady.
Just as she was about to leave, the old lady called out to her, "Did you know that Zheng Ting found a girlfriend in the countryside of Feng City?"
She actually knew all along and wanted to meet Lin Qingyan, but her family knew the old lady's character. The old lady doted on Shen Mengya and wanted her younger brother to marry Shen Mengya. If the old lady found out that Lu Zhengting had found another girl as his partner, she would definitely interfere and stop it.
So, no one told the old lady about it.
"I don't know. Zheng Ting found a girlfriend over there. What's that girl like? I haven't heard anything about her."
Grandma Lu snorted, but she could tell that she wasn't telling the truth. "I knew you wouldn't tell me."
"Grandma, I really don't know."
"Alright, alright. I'm going out now. You can leave as soon as you've delivered your things."
"Okay, Grandma, goodbye."
Lu Xinping left without any hesitation.
However, she's so excited because her younger brother is getting married.
At this time, Lu's mother had already returned home.
She immediately told Lu Zhengting's father about Lu Zhengting and Lin Qingyan's upcoming marriage.
"Zhendong, San'er's marriage is finally settled. He can marry such a good girl. The big weight on my heart can finally be lifted."
Mr. Lu has never met Lin Qingyan, but every time he talks to Mrs. Lu on the phone or writes a letter, Mrs. Lu mentions Lin Qingyan and always praises her.
Although the main focus is on Lin Qingyan treating Lu Zhengting's leg, it's clear that Lin Qingyan is not only a highly skilled doctor, but also has many other merits.
Think about it, otherwise why would his son like it?
"He probably submitted the marriage application by now, and it should be approved in a few days. We should start preparing for the children's happy occasion."
While Lu's mother was happy, she also thought of another person, Shen Mengya.
Shen Mengya has always liked Lu Zhengting and once said that she would not marry anyone but Lu Zhengting. Grandma Lu has always supported Shen Mengya and hoped that Lu Zhengting could marry Shen Mengya.
Lu Zhengting and Shen Mengya were like people from two different worlds. Shen Mengya had always been raised by Old Madam Lu as her own granddaughter. He and Shen Mengya had grown up together since childhood, but he couldn't even get along with her like a brother or sister, let alone like her.
At that time, she thought her son was naughty and didn't like playing with gentle and delicate girls. Later, as her son grew up, he basically didn't communicate with girls.
People say that opposites attract, but her son is the exact opposite.
Even when his son was twenty years old and of marriageable age, he never liked any young girls, nor did he enjoy being around them.
She couldn't help but start to suspect that her son might have some kind of mental disorder, or difficulty interacting with girls of the same age.
She had tried to get others to introduce Lu Zhengting to potential partners. The girls were all pretty, and they liked Lu Zhengting a lot. But her blockhead son, just sitting there with a cold face, looked like a killing god. With just a few words, he could make the girls back down.
