"Lu Feng, aren't you going to interrupt and explain about Xiao Ju?" Lin Wanwan stared at him, looking him up and down.
“I’m not familiar with her, and I’m not familiar with her family either.”
Lin Wanwan saw him speak without even looking up, "Really? Brother Lu Feng, are you really not familiar with her? Brother Lu Feng."
Lu Feng chuckled softly as he looked down at her, then turned to ask, "What's wrong, Wanmei?"
Lin Wanwan thought of the time when Lu Feng was preparing to break off the engagement. At that time, Lu Feng told He Yumei, "I'm here to see Wanmei today." Thinking of this, she couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"What are you laughing about so happily, Wanmei?" Lu Feng hugged her and kissed the mole under her eye.
“I remember the day you were going to call off the engagement, you said to my mom, ‘Aunt He, I’m here to see Wanmei.’ You called me ‘Wanmei’ that day.”
Lu Feng smiled as he recalled that day, "Luckily, the engagement wasn't called off that day, or we wouldn't be where we are now. Luckily, I overheard what you were saying to Mom outside the door."
“Lu Feng, you were eavesdropping,” Lin Wanwan poked his chest. “Why did you call me Wanmei that day? You’ve never called me that before.”
"I don't know, it just came out of my mouth. Do you like me calling you that?"
Lin Wanwan smiled and said to him, "Whatever, Brother Lu Feng, you can call me whatever you want, brother."
Lu Feng felt that she really, really looked like a little fox, calling him "brother" in a soft voice, which melted his heart.
"Then how about I call you that from now on?"
“Okay, Brother Lu Feng,” Lin Wanwan said with a smile as she hugged him. “So, what do you want me to call you?”
"What do you want to call me?" Lu Feng looked down into her eyes.
"Can I call you husband?"
Lu Feng looked at her without saying anything, but simply kissed her forehead.
"Honey, can you tell me about you and Xiao Ju now?"
Lu Feng couldn't help but laugh out loud, "Sure, Wanmei, let's talk in the living room."
Lin Wanwan took his arm and led him to sit down in the living room. "Come on, comrade, tell me about you and that lady."
"You're not calling me 'husband' anymore?"
"What 'husband'? You're the defendant now."
Lu Feng had no choice but to tell her about the past. "It's very simple. She and her mother came to live with the army, and somehow they took a liking to me. As for that Li Limei, I really, really had no feelings for her at all."
"You know our family's situation at the time. All I wanted was to get my parents here as soon as possible, but thankfully they were there to help me take care of them."
Lu Feng sighed and said, "But I was still tricked. I thought it would be over, but who knew that Li Limei tricked me into having a child. At that time, my parents were able to return to Beijing, and we returned our house and property. I wanted to send Li Limei away."
“I really have different values from her and just wanted to avoid seeing her. Who knew she would be so unrestrained? She kept eating during her pregnancy and no one could persuade her. If we pressed her too hard, she would say that our family was so stingy with a pregnant woman like her.”
Lu Feng shook his head helplessly, "My mother really had no choice but to let her have her way, but something still happened when she was about to give birth. During those days, my mother repeatedly told her to keep an eye on her and to take her to the hospital immediately if anything happened."
Lu Feng paused for a moment in silence, then continued, "On the day of delivery, my mother was so worried that she couldn't sleep all night. She asked the nanny to go check on her, but it turned out that she was eating pig's trotters in her room, even though her water had already broken."
“My mother was terrified, but she didn’t care at all. She’s a nurse herself, yet she’s so ignorant, saying that people from her hometown give birth at home.”
"Oh dear, my mom was so anxious that she threw down what she was holding and drove her to the hospital. She gave birth in the car, but the baby was too big. She was born, but she had a massive hemorrhage and died."
“At the time, my mother thought of my job, took the person to the hospital, called the police, had the forensic doctor perform an autopsy and issue a report, and called me to come home immediately. I had reported all of these things in advance, and I handed over all the investigation results and various reports issued by the police, forensic doctors and doctors to the military.”
“Xiao Ju somehow found out that my family was very rich. Before Li Limei died, she kept trying to get close to me, but I ignored her every time. After Li Limei died, she became even more aggressive. I had no choice but to take a long leave and go back home. By then, Tuanzi was already six months old.”
“During the months I’ve been at home, my mother has been talking to me about the marriage. She has a good relationship with your mother, has been to the military before, and knows about Xiao Ju and Li Limei.”
"So when Aunt He brought it up, my mom thought about it and agreed. That's why I was in such a hurry to get married before, in order to avoid her and put an end to her plans."
"So it really doesn't matter. I used to wonder why you got married so early. Turns out it was to avoid her. It's a lucky coincidence. Otherwise, how would you know me, Brother Lu Feng?"
Lu Feng smiled, put his arm around her and said, "Now you know, Wanmei, I've only ever liked you since I was a child."
"Okay, Brother Lu Feng, you can call me your brother now, your brother-in-law."
Lu Fengqiao pinched her cheek. "I know, Wanmei."
"Thank you for your hard work, honey. Our son and I will be waiting for you at home."
After Lu Feng left, Lin Wanwan returned to her room and saw that Tuanzi had woken up. Lin Wanwan quickly carried him to the toilet.
Lin Wanwan dressed herself and Tuanzi at home, played on the sofa for a while, and had some afternoon tea before Lu Feng brought Lin Xiaohai back.
"Brother Lu Feng, why are you back so late?"
“Then you’ll have to ask Xiao Hai,” Lu Feng said, pointing to the person behind him.
"Lin Xiaohai, what's wrong with you?"
"Sis, it's really nothing. I just went hunting in the mountains with Brother Wang Lin. Look, this is what I shot with my gun. Aren't I amazing?" Lin Xiaohai said, waving the rabbits in his hand.
When Lin Wanwan heard that he had actually gone up the mountain, she was about to get angry, but then she remembered that Lin Xiaohai was a boy and she couldn't overprotect him.
Finally, he could only say helplessly, "From now on, you have to tell them in advance. Don't do what you did today and not tell your family. You can go up the mountain, but you're not allowed to go alone. You also have to pay attention to safety and not act on your own."
After Lin Wanwan finished speaking, she told him to go take a shower. "We're going to Uncle Gu's house for dinner tonight. Did your brother-in-law tell you on the way back?"
"I said I understand."
Lin Wanwan saw Lu Feng sitting next to her and leaned against him.
"I thought you would scold him. Aren't you afraid something will happen to Xiao Hai?"
"I was scared, but then I thought about how he's a boy, and I can't keep him by my side forever. He has to learn to take responsibility on his own, and I can't protect him forever."
Lu Feng looked at her and nodded, saying, "You're right. He's sixteen years old, a boy. Going up mountains and down rivers is fine, just be careful when you take it."
Lin Wanwan nodded, and the three of them got ready and went to the Gu family together.
