Chapter 32: Propose Tomorrow
She heard her second sister-in-law's voice outside the door, and she seemed to hear her own name.
Could it be that he was looking for her? But she and Lu Yuxiu had just separated not long ago, so it couldn't be him, so who could it be?
Wu Fangfang heard continuous knocking on the door in the room, and was wondering who it could be. She got up and opened the door without knowing why.
As soon as she opened the door and saw the person standing outside, Wu Fangfang was a little surprised. Didn’t her younger sister just come back from going out with Lu Yuxiu?
"Excuse me, sister-in-law. I have something to discuss with Comrade Lin Xia." Lu Yuxiu said apologetically when he saw that the person who opened the door was Lin Xia's second sister-in-law.
Wu Fangfang felt a little amused when she heard this name. This person was older than her, but he called her sister-in-law because she was his younger sister-in-law.
After thinking about it, she accepted his call of sister-in-law and asked Lu Yuxiu to come into the yard first. She turned around and went into the house to call her sister-in-law.
As soon as I walked into the living room, I saw my sister-in-law had already come out, so I smiled jokingly and said, "Go quickly, Comrade Lu is waiting in the yard."
Lin Xia smiled shyly at her sister-in-law and walked into the yard.
Wu Fangfang smiled slightly, then turned back to the room, ready to give the space to the young couple.
Lin Xia walked over with confusion in her heart, not understanding why he came at this time.
The tall man stood in the yard with his back to her. Just from his back, he looked as tall and straight as a pine tree, with a unique temperament.
Lu Yuxiu felt the gaze behind him and turned around with a smile on his lips and a hint of anticipation and joy between his brows, which was very different from his usual state.
Lin Xia was stunned when she saw this, and was full of doubts. When their eyes met and she saw the smile in his eyes, her mood suddenly improved.
"What's wrong?" Lin Xia blinked and walked forward and asked softly.
Lu Yuxiu fixed his gaze on the smile in the little girl's eyes. The emotions churning in his heart gradually subsided, and he couldn't help but feel much better.
"The marriage report has come down." The man lowered his eyes and replied in a low voice.
Lin Xia was stunned when she heard it, and instantly understood something. A blush appeared on her face and her heartbeat quickened.
"Can I come and propose to you tomorrow?" Lu Yuxiu looked at the shy face of the little girl and asked solemnly, with a hint of subtle nervousness in his tone.
Was she proposed to? Although there were no flowers or rings, the words were old-fashioned.
Lin Xia's heart beat faster, and she couldn't help but look away at the tree next to her to hide her inner shock.
Lin Xia raised her eyes and caught the nervousness in the man's eyes. Then she realized that she was not the only one who was nervous. She felt inexplicably relieved and took a deep breath, "Yeah."
Lu Yuxiu was so nervous that he couldn't hear anything. His eyes were fixed nervously on Lin Xia's face until he heard a "hmm" in his ear. Then he felt his heart return to the right place.
At this moment, Lu Yuxiu felt as if his life was complete, and his face was no longer as stern as usual.
Lin Xia couldn't help but laugh when she saw the man smiling so silly for the first time after she agreed. She thought she was the only one who was nervous, but she didn't expect the man to be the same.
Lin Xia couldn't help but start looking forward to the future.
The two of them stood in the yard stupidly, with silly smiles on their faces.
A lot of time passed.
Lin Xia came back to her senses and thought about her silly behavior just now. For the first time, she felt that her IQ had been lowered by love.
"Then...see you tomorrow." Lu Yuxiu forced himself to return to normal and spoke to the little girl in a gentle voice, with a hint of reluctance in his voice.
Lin Xia nodded, then remembered something and said hurriedly, "Wait for me."
Lin Xia hurried to the kitchen, wrapped some red date cakes in oil paper and handed them to Lu Yuxiu, "It's hard to take them this morning, so now's a good time to bring them to grandma to try."
The weather is getting warmer, and pastries without preservatives will easily go bad if left for too long.
Lin Xia watched Lu Yuxiu's figure gradually disappear in the alley until he could no longer be seen. She felt warm in her heart and a smile unconsciously appeared on her face.
"Xiao Xia, who was that man who just walked out?" Zhang Hongying walked towards home, muttering to herself. Just now, a man walked through the alley. He was tall, but he had an extraordinary aura, so she didn't even see his face clearly.
He was wondering when this person appeared in their alley, but he had no idea after thinking for a long time. When he turned a corner, he saw Xiao Xia from next door standing at the gate of the yard. He immediately seemed to smell something and asked in a curious manner.
"What man? Auntie, please be busy. I'll go in!" Lin Xia glanced at the inquiring look on Aunt Zhang's face, smiled at her, pretended to be stupid and ran away. Aunt Zhang was the number one loudspeaker in this alley and was keen on all gossips. She would know something without anyone noticing.
Aunt Zhang at the outer gate looked at Lin Xia who was slipping away and curled her lips in dissatisfaction. She saw this girl smiling from a distance, and she didn't believe that there was no connection between them. Her intuition was definitely right.
Zhang Hongying muttered fiercely, "Just wait and see!" It won't be long before she knows all the news. This little girl is just kidding her, she's not honest at all.
Lin Xia went back to her room and lay on the bed, thinking about many things and unable to calm down.
But she didn't know that her appearance was typical of pre-marital anxiety.
Lin Xia woke up without knowing when she fell asleep. The house was full of lively conversations and she could faintly hear Hu Zi's laughter.
Lin Xia suddenly felt as if she was in another world. It turned out that she did not return to the modern era. It was just a dream.
She got up and went to the kitchen, where she saw her sister-in-law and Lin's mother busying themselves.
Lin Xia stepped forward to help light the fire.
While pulling the bellows, Lin Xia thought of the marriage proposal and whispered, "Mom, he said he would come to our house to propose marriage tomorrow."
This sentence was like dropping a bomb, shocking Lin's mother, "Who will propose marriage?"
"Lu Yuxiu's marriage report has come down."
"He... so fast?" When Lin's mother heard that it was Lu Yuxiu, she felt relieved.
Although I had anticipated this when my daughter started dating someone, I still felt a little reluctant when I heard the news.
"So...what do you think?"
"I agree." Lin Xia replied softly. Time was running out. It would soon be the day when the original owner would frame Jiang Wanrou and anger He Lixuan.
She has been here for so long and has been staying away from them in various ways, but she couldn't help but panic when she met him today. She was afraid that she could not escape the plot of the original book. Since such a person appeared, Lin Xia wanted to give it a try.
Wang Yanmei supported her sister-in-law to get married early. Seeing that Lin's mother was reluctant, she spoke to ease the situation and said, "Look how good Comrade Lu is to my sister! She will definitely live a happy life in the future!"
"Even if my little sister has to go with the army, she can still come back for home visit leave."
After hearing this, Lin's mother felt much better. At first, she just wanted her daughter to find a good man.
"By the way, Mom, there are so many red date cakes, do you want to send some to Xiaoxue?" Seeing that her mother-in-law seemed to want to say something, Wang Yanmei mentioned Lin's mother's other daughter.
My sister-in-law has finally found love with Comrade Lu, so please don’t cause any more trouble.
When Mother Lin heard this, her mind was immediately diverted.
