Lu Zhenguo was a man who would not lie, so he could only stammer and tell the village chief about Lu Youxi's admission to Peking University.

This was great. When the village chief heard that Hexing Village had produced another top student from Peking University, he was so happy that he immediately told the good news through the village radio.

Lu Zhenguo didn't find Lu Youxi, so he returned from the village chief's house.

"Youxi, where did you go just now?" When Lu Zhenguo saw Lu Youxi coming towards him, he quickly walked over and asked.

"Ask someone to keep the admission letter for me." Lu Youxi did not hide his distrust of his family at all.

Lu Zhenguo said somewhat unhappily: "You don't keep such an important thing at home, but give it to someone else for safekeeping?"

"I think it's safer to leave it with someone else than at home." Lu Youxi said without any concealment.

"What are you talking about! Who in our family could have stolen your admission letter?" Lu Zhenguo said unhappily, "We are all happy for you to be admitted to Peking University. Youxi, you really chilled the hearts of the whole family by saying this."

"You know whether my grandparents want me to go to college." Lu Youxi didn't want to dwell on this matter, so he asked again, "Where did you go just now?"

This time, Lu Zhenguo stammered and couldn't say anything.

Lu Youxi looked in the direction from which Lu Zhenguo came, and twitched the corner of his mouth sarcastically, "You went to the village chief's house?"

Lu Youxi laughed sarcastically, "Do you think I went to the village chief's house to complain?"

Lu Zhenguo lowered his head, his eyes flickering and he didn't dare to look directly at Lu Youxi.

He felt that he had wronged Lu Youxi by speculating about her with malicious intent.

Lu Youxi never went to complain to the village chief.

Lu Youxi smiled, said nothing more, and turned to walk home.

Lu Zhenguo felt guilty and didn't bother to ask her who she hid the admission letter with.

* Thanks to the village chief, Aunt Lin and Aunt Liu, now the whole village knows that Lu Youxi was admitted to Peking University.

Even if the two elders of the Lu family wanted to regret it, they couldn't.

There are so many eyes in the village watching them.

Now, whenever the two elders of the Lu family go out and meet villagers, they will be congratulated.

It is really a blessing for a family to have two top students who are admitted to Peking University.

That day, Lu Zhenjia took advantage of the fact that Lu Zhenguo and Liu Yusu were working in the fields and came to the house to visit the two elders of the Lu family.

"Dad, Mom." Lu Zhenjia came in in a hurry and looked around, "Where's that girl Lu Youxi?"

"She went to work in the fields with your elder brother." Mrs. Lu said, "What do you want to see her for?"

"This damn girl is so shameless!" Lu Zhenjia spat angrily.

"What's going on?" When Mrs. Lu heard that the matter was related to Lu Youxi, a mean face immediately fell.

He knew it too well. The whole village knew how unruly and unreasonable the two old men in the Lu family were.

But because of my age, I can't get angry with them. If I get angry, they will lie down in front of you and try to extort money from you. Who can stand that?

Therefore, the villagers were dissatisfied with the two old men of the Lu family and talked about them behind their backs, but they dared not say it in front of them.

If you say one more word, Mrs. Lu will cover her chest and say that you made her have a heart attack.

Naturally, no one dared to gossip in front of the two elders of the Lu family.

Even if he wanted to laugh at the Lu family, he would only tell it to others, and not to the two elders of the Lu family.

"I did go out for a walk a few times, but I didn't hear anything." Old Mrs. Lu urged impatiently, "What's going on? Tell me quickly!"

Lu Zhenjia pretended to look back at the courtyard outside the door, then lowered his voice and said to the two elders of the Lu family, "It's rumored outside that Lu Youxi and Xu Mai, the girl brought back by Old Lady Xu, are having an affair. It's not clean."

"What?!" Mr. Lu asked gruffly, "Who said that?"

"The girl from the Wang family was talking about was Xiaofen, who works at the milk tea shop in town." Lu Zhenjia said, "She saw Lu Youxi go to Old Lady Xu's house to look for Xu Mai."

"Mrs. Xu was not at home at the time, and Xu Mai let Lu Youxi in and even closed the gate." Lu Zhenjia said seriously, "The gates in our village are not closed. Unless you are beating your children, who would close the gate for no reason?"

"Mrs. Xu was not at home, and there were only two young people at home, Xu Mai and Lu Youxi. They were a single man and a single woman, and they were in their prime. What good could they do behind closed doors?" Lu Zhenjia was shocked. "Besides, Xu Mai was shirtless at the time! He dared to be so reckless in front of others in broad daylight. Tsk tsk tsk tsk..."

"I wonder if Lu Youxi is relying on the fact that she was admitted to Beijing University and no one can control her? Our village is not big and everyone knows each other. If there are any trivial matters in someone's family, the whole village will know about it. She can do such a shameful thing. Is she planning to never come back? How else would she dare to do that?"

As Lu Zhenjia was talking, he suddenly made a hissing sound, as if he suddenly realized something. "Dad, Mom, that girl Lu Youxi is not really planning to take the opportunity of going to college and never come back, right?"

"Although it is said that a daughter who is married off is like spilled water, we still have to wait until she is married! Now she is still a member of our family!" Lu Zhenjia blinked his triangular eyes and said with a calculating look on his face.

"She dares!" Mr. Lu slammed the table angrily.

"Why should she be afraid?" Seeing that his words had worked, Lu Zhenjia could not hide his joy, which was all shown on his face. He further said, "When she goes to Beijing University to study, she will be in the capital, and she will be free to do whatever she wants. Who will be able to control her then? We don't know what's going on with her in the capital."

"Besides, Lu Youxi is always very careful and thoughtful. After seeing the prosperity of the big city, her heart has become even wilder. Can she come back with peace of mind? She can make her own decision and even get married secretly in the imperial capital." Lu Zhenjia sneered, "Is there anything she dare not do?"

"By then, we won't be able to decide who she marries." Lu Zhenjia lowered his voice again and said, "We can't even ask her to come back."

"Dad, Mom, Lu Youxi is still a member of our family, so she has to listen to our family. If she gets married in the city, our family won't be able to control her." Seeing that the two elders of the Lu family fell into deep thought, Lu Zhenjia urged them harder.

"Besides, she found someone in the city by herself, and we don't know his background. How can we feel at ease?" Lu Zhenjia said again.

"That's what you said." Old Mrs. Lu nodded.

"City people are smart. Maybe her husband's family will look down on her because she came from the countryside, and won't even give her a decent bride price." As soon as Lu Zhenjia said the word "bride price", the expressions of the two elders of the Lu family suddenly changed.
