Chapter 128: Being implicated by my own grandmother again

"Xiaoxi, eat more vegetables! Grandma will make you something delicious in the evening." Grandma Lu's face was full of smiles, as if something good had happened to her.

"Yeah. You guys eat too." Gu Xiaoxi felt that he came down late, so he was very quiet while eating.

After dinner, Gu Xiaoxi was about to clean up the dishes when Grandma Lu stopped her.

"Xiaoxi, you sit down and let Jianye and Jianlin clean up and wash the dishes."

Gu Xiaoxi was a little puzzled. "Isn't this a bad idea? One of them is a patient, and the other just came back."

Grandma Lu raised her eyebrows and said, "Why is it bad? Now they have to do all the housework."

Grandpa Lu coughed lightly and said, "It won't kill a boy if he works harder. I'm going to go out for a walk."

When his wife wanted to educate her grandson, he did not intervene and just walked out with his hands behind his back.

Gu Xiaoxi glanced at Lu Jianye and Lu Jianlin. Did these two make grandma angry?

"Sister-in-law, let's do it! You take a rest." Lu Jianlin stood up first and quickly cleared the dishes.

Lu Jianye took a rag and wiped the table.

It's just washing dishes. It's no big deal for Lu Jianlin, and he won't really let his second brother share the burden.

Gu Xiaoxi sat in the living room, talking to her grandmother and mother-in-law.

After Lu Jianlin finished washing the dishes, Mr. Qi also came over.

Without saying a word, he handed the task of giving acupuncture to Lu Jianye over to Gu Xiaoxi and just watched from the side.

Only when he was sure that the little girl had really mastered it and would not make any mistakes did he nod.

"Xiaoxi girl, I won't come tomorrow. If he gets acupuncture on his leg regularly, he won't need it in three to five days at the least, and seven to eight days at the most."

Gu Xiaoxi nodded and said, "I'll take you to the train station tomorrow."

Qi Lao waved his hands and said, "I am already a grown-up, why would I need you to send me anything? I will leave by myself tomorrow. It just so happens that an old friend of mine is going to Shanghai too, so I will go with him."

"Okay then!" Gu Xiaoxi felt a little apologetic, but didn't insist in the end.

Qi Lao was called to Kyoto by her and Lu Jiansen, and she originally wanted to send him back when she returned.

Mr. Qi seemed to know what she was thinking. He smiled and took out a new set of silver needles from his pocket and handed them to her.

"This is for you. Don't worry, girl. I have traveled across the country countless times by myself. I am in good health and can go back by myself. Who knows, by the time you are in Qingbei, I will still be playing in Shencheng!"

Gu Xiaoxi's eyes suddenly lit up when he heard this. "Then I'll go back to Shencheng to find you! I want to go to Shencheng, too."

Mr. Qi said with a smile: "Didn't you just go to Shencheng with that kid Lu Jiansen?"

Gu Xiaoxi scratched his head and said, "Let's go again."

"That won't work. If you get lost along the way, I won't be able to find a little girl to give to Lu Jiansen as compensation. Just wait for that boy to come back and pick you up."

Gu Xiaoxi felt a little regretful, "Grandpa Qi doesn't want to take me out to play!"

Old Qi chuckled, "If you and Lu Jiansen don't go back to Kyoto during the New Year, I'll take you to the mountains to pick herbs. And bring Shuangshuang along."

Gu Xiaoxi wanted to nod immediately, but when she saw Grandma Lu was still listening, she restrained herself.

"Well. Have a safe journey tomorrow!"

"Okay, now you know how to remove the needle, I'm leaving now." Old Qi stood up as he spoke.

Wei Mingying and Lu Jianlin also quickly stood up and, together with Gu Xiaoxi, sent Mr. Qi to the door.

At this time, Gu Xiaoxi discovered that there was a car waiting for Qi Lao at the door.

After returning home, Wei Mingying gave Lu Jianlin a few instructions and went to work.

Gu Xiaoxi sat on the nanmu sofa in the living room, reading a book, waiting to remove the needles from Lu Jianye's penis.

"Sister-in-law, do you girls care a lot about whether a man can cook?" Lu Jianye suddenly asked.

When Lu Jianlin heard this topic, he also looked over curiously.

Gu Xiaoxi blinked and asked, "Why do you ask that?"

Lu Jianlin explained: "My grandmother said so. She said that among my eldest brother's strengths, being able to cook is also a very important one."

Grandma Lu, who had just come in with a sewing box, heard this and immediately echoed, "Isn't it? If a man is the boss at home and does nothing, how can the relationship between husband and wife be good?"

Gu Xiaoxi heard what her grandmother said and nodded with a smile, "Yes, grandma is right. A family belongs to two people. One person can't take care of everything while the other does nothing. Husband and wife should be equal."

Lu Jianye fell silent when he heard this.

Should husband and wife be equal?

But there has never been equality in the relationship between him and Bi Wenyue.

He has always been the one who gives.

Lu Jianlin was also thoughtful.

After a moment of silence, Lu Jianlin suddenly said, "Then Grandpa doesn't even go into the kitchen to cook!"

Grandma Lu snorted, "Can you compare with your grandpa? Your grandpa is so decisive and courageous. And it's not that he can't cook, it's just that his cooking skills are a little bit poor. I don't want him to cook."

Lu Jianlin: “…”

Why is he suddenly feeling a little sour?

Gu Xiaoxi heard this and said seriously: "Grandpa is a very wise and loyal person, and he is very good to grandma. It is really precious to be able to live together like grandpa and grandma through all the ups and downs together."

Grandma Lu really thinks that Xiaoxi is a good girl who is lovable. She has good vision, is pretty, kind-hearted, and smart.

The important thing is, it's really pleasing to her eyes!

This girl should belong to their Lu family!

She raised her eyebrows and looked at her two grandsons. "You heard it, didn't you? In a couple, it's impossible for only one person to make continuous contributions. The simplest example is cooking. One of the two people has to know how to cook. Otherwise, how will you live? Eat air every day?"

It was obvious that Grandma Lu's words had a hidden meaning.

Lu Jianye lowered his head and dared not say a word.

How could he not know that grandma was talking about him.

He can't cook, and neither can Bi Wenyue. They got married based on his passion alone.

Lu Jianlin now felt a little sympathetic towards his second brother.

After thinking for a while, he asked in a low voice: "Sister-in-law, do you know what the people in the military region call me in private?"

Gu Xiaoxi nodded, "I know, isn't it King Lu Yan?"

"Then don't you think my brother is too cold?" Lu Jianlin asked with curiosity in his eyes.

Gu Xiaoxi shook his head. "No. I'm not his soldier. He can't discipline me, right?"

Lu Jianlin smiled, but he was narrow-minded.

Grandma Lu said very protectively: "Xiao Sen may look cold, but he has a warm heart and loves his daughter-in-law, just like his grandfather."

Gu Xiaoxi raised her lips slightly, "Well, grandma is right!"

When Grandma Lu saw that she was accepted by her grandson's wife, the smile in her eyes became gentler.

"The greatest advantage of Komori is that he has known what he wants and what he doesn't want since he was a child. He can take and let go. He is decisive and never drags his feet. He never forces things that don't belong to him."

Lu Jianye felt that he was being framed by his grandmother again!

Lu Jianlin wanted to say something but didn't dare to, so he had to listen carefully.

"Xiao Sen has another advantage, which is that he has a good vision!" Grandma Lu thought about it and spoke again, her words sounding particularly happy.

If I didn’t have good vision, how could I have married such a good and obedient wife like Xiaoxi!
