Chapter 348 Smoke Rising from the Ancestral Grave



Lu Cheng raised his hand and touched Qin Anning's forehead, his eyes full of worry, "Wife, you don't have a fever, right?"

My father-in-law has been gone for several years, how can he still come back to life?

Qin An Ning slapped his hand away, her face full of displeasure. "I'm telling you the truth. Isn't that how it's played out in many movies and TV shows? Undercover agents fake their own deaths to complete their missions."

If this is true, then it is not impossible that her father is still alive. The more Qin An Ning thought about it, the more she felt that her idea was correct.

"Wife, is there any similarity between that person and Dad?"

Qin Anning recalled carefully the similarities and found that apart from their heights, there were no other similarities. Even their walking postures were different.

"But, but the more this happens, the more it proves that his disguise is successful, doesn't it?"

Qin An Ning felt insecure after hearing what she said.

She might be possessed by a demon. She would think of her father whenever she saw a stranger.

Lu Cheng sighed. His wife must have missed her father-in-law and mother-in-law so much that she could associate everything with them.

"Ningning, do you still remember the health-preserving pills that grandma and grandpa took from you? They said they were going to give them to a person who was being demoted."

Qin An Ning nodded, motioning him to continue.

"While you were away, I went to visit my grandparents and learned from them that the man was a professor at National Tsing Hua University, teaching mechanical engineering. I planned to study with him."

"Really? This is like sending a pillow when you are sleepy." Qin An Ning was also happy for Lu Cheng after hearing the news.

But thinking of that man's identity, Qin An Ning became worried again. With a wrinkled face, she asked, "Many people like them end up like this because they are betrayed by those around them. Will he be willing to teach you?"

Lu Cheng raised his eyebrows, a determined smile on his lips, "Sincerity can move mountains and open up new horizons. Nothing is easy. Take your time. He will be able to sense my sincerity."

Qin An Ning grabbed a thread on Lu Cheng's clothes and buttoned it up in a disjointed manner.

After hearing this, I felt that what Lu Cheng said made sense.

"Well, I'll go over to see your grandparents tonight and ask them about the professor's temperament. Maybe they can help you talk to him."

"No, wife, grandma and grandpa helped the professor out of kindness, and I don't want him to think we're trying to repay a favor.

Don't worry, your husband is so capable, how can he not handle this?"

"Just be so cocky!"

The two of them chatted affectionately about other things.

I haven't seen each other for half a month, and I really miss each other, so even if we say some meaningless nonsense, it still feels sweet.

Lu Cheng breathed a sigh of relief, finally getting over the matter.

When he goes to Beijing again, he will go to the graves of his father-in-law and mother-in-law to talk to them and ask them to send a message to his wife in her dreams to prevent her from having too many worries.

While the young couple was being sweet and loving, Wang Qiufen was showing off her trophy to Lu Rongjiang.

"Look at this dress, it's made of Dacron, very expensive, let's each get one.

And these three-joint leather shoes, Ningning bought a pair for each of us..."

Wang Qiufen took things out one by one, folded them and put them in the cabinet after displaying them.

Such nice clothes should be saved for wearing outside.

Lu Rongjiang was smoking a cigarette beside her, listening to Wang Qiufen talk about how Qin Anning took her out to play, took her to eat delicious food, and bought things for her.

"Why does it sound like An Ning spent all this money? Didn't I bring you some money? Why didn't you spend it?"

Lu Rongjiang thought his wife was being stingy and was reluctant to spend money.

Even if a daughter-in-law is filial, she cannot be blamed for being ignorant.

Wang Qiufen saw what her husband was thinking at a glance and snorted in annoyance, "I do want to spend it, but can I afford it?

Ningning fooled me, and by the time I realized what was going on, I had already bought everything."

It sounded like she was being stingy. Wang Qiufen was a little unhappy and started banging the broom around.

Lu Rongjiang was a little embarrassed, but he hadn't said anything soft in all these years, so he stiffly changed the subject, "Well, that clock is pretty nice."

Speaking of the table clock, Wang Qiufen had something to say. She talked about how Qin Anning insisted that she choose this clock and what happened afterwards.

Then he took out the two small yellow croakers from the deepest part of a bag and showed them off to Lu Rongjiang.

“Look at this!”

Wang Qiufen raised her chin slightly and said with a smug look, "Ningning is really our family's treasure. Since marrying Ningning, good things have happened to our family one after another."

Lu Rongjiang was also very excited when he saw the two small yellow croakers, and he somewhat agreed with what Wang Qiufen said.

An Ning is indeed a lucky child. Otherwise, who would get two small yellow croakers for free when buying a clock?

"What did this little yellow croaker An Ning say?"

"Ningning didn't want it. She said she would give them all to both of us. After much persuasion, she finally agreed to take one and even said she would keep it for us."

Wang Qiufen sighed. She was not well educated but she was not stupid. How could she not know that Ningning was just fooling her?

Who has gold bars and doesn’t hide them carefully, instead letting the mother-in-law save them?

"An Ning is a good person!" Lu Rongjiang also agreed with his wife's words. It was a great honor for their family that the fifth son could marry An Ning.

"Hide those two things. They will be given to the children in the future anyway."

Lu Rongjiang has his own ideas. They have now separated, and it seems that all three sons and daughters-in-law are filial.

But the more filial his children are, the more he needs to plan for the future of himself and his wife, and try not to be a burden to his children when he is old.

Now they are still able to work and save enough money for their retirement. When they pass away, the money they save will belong to their children.

Lao Wu and his wife are capable and filial, and don't care about those things, so they accept the child's kindness and give more to Lao Wu and his family when he divides the family property with his wife in the future.

Wang Qiufen kept talking about her trip, and Lu Rongjiang listened patiently until very late.

Lu Cheng finally waited until dark, and hurriedly pulled Qin An Ning into the space.

Qin Anning pushed him away and said, "I'm going to visit my grandparents later."

"I know, wife, just this once, don't you miss me?" Lu Cheng's breath was burning hot in his ears.

After the passionate kiss, Qin An Ning had no time to think about anything else. They hadn't been together for more than half a month, and she missed him too.

Fortunately, Lu Cheng kept his word. After indulging himself for a while, he didn't do anything else. He hugged the woman and rested for a while. When they saw that it was almost time, they got up and took their things to visit the two elders.

Grandma and Grandpa were very happy to see Qin An Ning coming over. They happily pulled her to sit down and talked, "Ning Ning, you don't have to bring food here all the time. Lu Cheng also brings food every now and then, and we can't finish it all."

Qin Anning really didn't know that Lu Cheng had sent her something. This guy hadn't even told her.

But as a grandson-in-law, it is his duty to take care of his grandparents.

Although she thought so, Qin Anning was still very happy that Lu Cheng always cared about her family, and decided to go back and reward him.

There is still wheat harvest to do tomorrow, and the two elders need a good rest. They didn’t stay too long, just talked to their grandparents and went back.
