Commander Ding led them directly to Lu Zhengting and Lin Qingyan's house. Lin Qingyan had gone to work, and both doors were tightly locked.
Aunt Zhang and Yang Qiuyue were sitting in front of their house. Aunt Zhang was reading the newspaper and studying writing, while Yang Qiuyue was making shoe uppers. Suddenly, a car stopped in front of them, and they quickly looked into the car.
Before getting off the bus, Grandma Lu took out two packets of pastries and gave them to Commander Ding.
"Xiao Ding, you came all the way from Beijing without bringing anything good. Take these two packets of pastries back home for your children."
"Oh dear, Auntie, I can't accept this!"
Grandma Lu placed the snacks on the passenger seat. "Since we've given them to you, don't refuse. Otherwise, Mengya and I will feel awkward coming to your house."
"Alright then, Auntie, thank you."
"Don't mention it, we even rode in your car."
After Grandma Lu and Shen Mengya got out of the car, Commander Ding turned the car around and drove away.
The two arrived at Lu Zhengting and Lin Qingyan's house, only to find the gate locked. There were two women nearby, and Old Mrs. Lu asked them, "You're both Zhengting's neighbors, why is no one home? Where's his wife?"
Zhang's wife and Yang Qiuyue both looked at them in surprise.
“I am Zhengting’s grandmother.” She then pointed to Shen Mengya, “and this is her sister.”
Zhang's wife and Yang Qiuyue had no idea what had happened between these two and Lin Qingyan and Lu Zhengting, and Lin Qingyan had never mentioned these two to them.
Since it was Lu Zhengting's grandmother and sister who came, they would naturally treat them politely.
Aunt Zhang stood up and invited them, "Zhengting and Qingyan have both gone to work. Why don't you come to my house and have a seat?"
"They've all gone to work? What kind of job does his wife have?" Grandma Lu asked, puzzled.
"You don't know? Qingyan is now a pediatrician at the military hospital. She's excellent at treating patients. Everyone in our family compound, adults and children alike, loves to see her. Qingyan isn't just good at treating patients; she can also write articles and cook very well. Your granddaughter-in-law is capable of anything, she can do everything."
Grandma Lu didn't pay much attention to Zhang's praise of Lin Qingyan: "She was a village doctor when she was in the village, so it's not surprising that she continues to be a doctor here."
Shen Mengya was almost dying of jealousy. How come Lin Qingyan was praised everywhere she went?
It's so annoying.
She didn't dare show her true feelings on her face, but instead smiled at Sister Zhang.
“My sister-in-law is quite outstanding, otherwise she wouldn’t be a couple with my brother.”
Grandma Lu said to Shen Mengya, "Why don't we go sit at their neighbor's house for a while, and come back when they return?"
"Okay, Grandma."
They then went to the other party's house with Sister Zhang, and Yang Qiuyue also came along to chat with them.
During their conversation, they brought up Lin Qingyan again, and Zhang Saozi and Yang Qiuyue kept praising her. Shen Mengya felt very uncomfortable, but she could only suppress her displeasure and agree with them.
“What my sisters-in-law say is true. My sister-in-law is indeed outstanding in every way, and most women can’t compare to her.”
But in his heart, he wished he could strangle Lin Qingyan.
Lin Qingyan, so what if you're good or outstanding? I won't care about that now. Once I win Zheng Ting back, you'll have nowhere to cry.
Since Shen Mengya decided to give up on Lu Zhengting, it seems that Old Madam Lu has also been able to accept Lin Qingyan.
She's old now and needs her children to support her in her old age. Unless it's absolutely necessary, she's willing to live peacefully with them.
Around noon, Lin Qingyan returned from the hospital on her bicycle. She opened the door and went home. As soon as she parked her bicycle, Aunt Zhang came over with Grandma Lu and Shen Mengya.
"Qingyan, you're off work. Your grandma and sister came to see you two. You and Zhengting weren't home just now, so I asked them to come to my house for a while."
Grandma? Sister?
Lin Qingyan turned her head in confusion and saw Old Madam Lu and Shen Mengya. Her face immediately darkened, and she said coldly to Old Madam Lu and Shen Mengya, "Why are you here?"
In front of Aunt Zhang, she didn't want to expose the family's shameful affairs and embarrass Lu Zhengting. This was a military region, and if more people knew about Lu Zhengting's rapid promotion and the appreciation he received from many leaders, there would inevitably be people who were jealous and envious of him.
If someone with ulterior motives were to exaggerate the situation and spread rumors, it would certainly have some impact on Lu Zhengting's reputation.
She first checked what those two people wanted to do there.
She said to Sister Zhang, "Sister-in-law, thank you for your help earlier. It's lunchtime, you should go home and cook. Brother Zhang will be back later, so I won't keep you here for lunch."
"It's nothing, it's nothing. Your sister-in-law won't help you anymore. I'm going back now."
Seeing that she didn't look well, Sister Zhang wondered if she had some kind of conflict with the two men.
Lin Qingyan probably didn't want her to know about their family background, so she tactfully left.
"Thank you for your help earlier, sister-in-law. Please take care."
After Aunt Zhang left, Lin Qingyan's face instantly darkened. Instead of yelling at Old Madam Lu and Shen Mengya in the yard, she called them into the house.
"Come here, let me see what kind of trouble you're up to this time."
