Chapter 120 Chapter 120 In pairs.
"You know..."
Minister Liang turned around in the middle of his words and paused when he saw the shocked expressions on the family members' faces. His thick black eyebrows suddenly frowned and he looked at Liang Xin again.
Liang Xin saw that Minister Liang remembered something and didn't say anything.
After a long silence, Minister Liang looked at the document he had just signed and sighed heavily.
"How is this possible!?"
Minister Liang's family looked at Liang Xin in disbelief. "She, she is just a poor student who did farmland research like those who went to the countryside to work. How could she be the one who came up with such an amazing technology patent! Besides, Jiangmen Farm started construction in the first two years. I heard your uncle Liang praise you for this. How could it be her? How could it be Lu Wei!"
Minister Liang's family member kept saying "how is it possible" several times, and the whole living room was filled with her astonishment.
Liang Xin didn't answer, but just looked at her quietly.
Minister Liang's family members gradually collapsed. "I have investigated everything clearly. Before she was admitted to university, she fed pigs and cattle in the production team every day. All she did was feed the animals..."
When Minister Liang's family members heard this, it was as if someone had suddenly grabbed their throats.
The feather duster in his hand fell to the ground with a thud.
The pain on her face was countless times greater than the pain she felt when she heard the words "We just got married yesterday" two minutes ago. It was as if someone was sawing back and forth in her heart with a sharp saw.
Or an electric saw.
As a result, the muscles in my face trembled with pain and my mouth twitched continuously.
Liang Xin said to Minister Liang: "Uncle Liang, I will report the remaining documents to you in the office tomorrow."
Minister Liang's family suddenly slapped the sofa handles and said, "Why doesn't she tell me about these things? Why doesn't she tell me about her abilities?"
Without waiting for anyone to answer, she fell back on the sofa, holding her chest, obviously unable to breathe.
Minister Liang saw that the family member was not pretending to be like that in front of his son this time, but was really suffering from severe heart pain. "Xiao Zhou, bring your aunt's quick-acting heart pills over here."
After all, they are the family members of a senior military commander. Liang Xin stood at the Liang family's house and waited until Minister Liang's family members took the quick-acting heart-saving pills and recovered their breath before she said, "Aunt Wu, it's all in the past. You got what you wanted, and Lu Wei also found a satisfactory husband. You should stop being so hard on yourself."
Liang Xin's few words of comfort almost made the quick-acting heart-saving pills lose their effect.
Minister Liang stood up and sighed again, "We did not do well. Please apologize to Comrade Lu Wei on my behalf."
Only then did Liang Xin leave the Liang family.
Lu Chongfeng had just finished a meeting and was walking towards him with two brown paper briefcases in his hands.
"So happy? Have you signed everything?"
"How can I be happy?"
"Can't I tell when you're happy or unhappy by the way you walk?"
Liang Xin felt that she was just walking normally, and she didn't know how he could tell the difference. "What does happiness look like?"
Lu Chongfeng and Liang Xin walked side by side towards home. "If you are happy, you will walk fast. If you are unhappy, you will walk slowly."
"Fire eyes and golden pupils."
Lu Chongfeng felt praised, "Since you are so happy today, I will cook!"
Liang Xin looked at the file bag in his hand and said, "We have a meeting this afternoon to discuss technical reform. Let me do it."
Dudu was sitting on a small three-wheeled toy car and was pushed to the door by Lu Yueji. His chubby little hands were placed on the armrests. He looked up at his parents with an expression that looked like he was begging for praise, "Mom!"
Liang Xin looked at Dudu with a surprised look and said exaggeratedly, "Wow, our Dudu can drive a tricycle? How come it's so great!"
Dudu kicked the pedal with her beautiful little feet, and then looked up at Lu Chongfeng with her little face.
"Are your hands cold?"
Lu Chongfeng lowered his head and touched his daughter's small hand on the handle, "Not bad."
Dudu nodded and imitated the words: "Not bad."
"Dudu has grown so big in the blink of an eye." Lu Yueji pushed Dudu around the corner and ran to the living room corridor. "Dudu is so fun when she is this big now. She eats everything you give her and laughs at everything you play with her!"
"Yes, I would like to have a baby soon."
Hu Fenglian walked to the dining table carrying a basket of vegetables for Dudu, looked at Liang Xin and said with a smile, "Is everything done? Why do I seem to hear a quarrel next door from the kitchen window? Who is howling?"
"Auntie Wu next door seems to be having a heart attack."
No one in the compound knew about Lu Wei and Liang Tianguang, and Liang Xin didn't plan to say anything more. "Mom, I'll cook lunch."
Lu Yueji, who had just pushed the car to the stairs, immediately turned around and said, "I can eat the food cooked by my second sister-in-law again!"
Dudu: "Food!"
"Grandma will cook for Dudu right away."
Hu Fenglian was completely immersed in the joy of family life with her grandparents. "You can cook whatever you want. I'll cook for Dudu. I've already thought of making seaweed shrimp cakes!"
Lu Chongfeng said: "Mom has found the joy of cooking in Dudu all her life."
Hu Fenglian was about to laugh, but halfway through she realized that something was wrong with what she said, and glared at her son, "Dudu always says the food I cook is delicious, and he eats every bit of it!"
"So what was wrong with what I just said?"
Lu Chongfeng handed the file bag to Liang Xin, "Dudu's rice should be cooked until it is soft, with less oil, less salt and less seasoning. In this regard, my mother's cooking skills are second to none. No one dares to say she is first."
Liang Xin tapped Lu Chongfeng's arm with the file bag and said, "You are so disrespectful every day, always teasing mom."
"No one usually talks to her at home, so I have to chat with her more when I come back to prevent Alzheimer's disease." Lu Chongfeng looked at Liang Xin with a "you wronged me" expression, "I am being filial."
Liang Xin: ".....iron teeth and copper jaws."
Lu Chongfeng's face changed to an expression of "being praised again", "What kind of dishes do you want to cook? If you don't have it at home, I'll go to the service center to buy it."
"There are so many vegetables at home, which mom prepared for Dudu to eat as supplementary food. Yueji has also returned. There are many people at home and the weather is cold, so we use the stove to boil a Huadiao chicken hot pot for dinner."
Liang Xin went to the kitchen to check the dishes. "We just happen to have crab roe. We can make crab meat and snacks. Fresh crab wings. What else do you want to eat?"
"I'm fine with anything." Lu Chongfeng opened the refrigerator door and checked if there was any other meat that could be used for hot pot. "Everything you cook will taste good."
Lu Yueji pushed the car to the door again, "Second sister-in-law, I want to eat fried gizzards!"
"This thing is easy to buy at the service center."
Liang Xin was about to ask Lu Chongfeng to go buy some, but Xiao Shi rushed out and said, "I'll go buy some. The service center sells mutton rolls in the winter. I'll buy some more!"
Lu Chongfeng grabbed Xiaoshi's military uniform collar and said, "Why are you in such a hurry? I'll go with you."
"Where are you going?"
Zheng Xiaojun and Lu Wei suddenly came in with their hands full of gifts. Zheng Xiaojun looked at Lu Chongfeng and said, "You guys want to go out? We just prepared some gifts to give to Liang Xin as a thank you gift for her matchmaking!"
As he was speaking, two soldiers wearing glasses came in from behind, carrying a square cardboard box with a pig's leg on top.
"Thanks. I'll treat you guys to a drink later."
Zheng Xiaojun picked up the pork leg and two chickens wrapped in red paper and brought them to Liang Xin. "I heard that this is the most symbolic gift of thanking the matchmaker in traditional customs. Aunt Hu, am I right in preparing it?"
Hu Fenglian was just as confused as Liang Xin. "This... there is such a saying, but I haven't seen it given like this for many years. How did you know about this?"
"We have all kinds of information in our company. I looked it up and learned it from the older generation. It's fine as long as it's correct."
Zheng Xiaojun gestured to Liang Xin to accept it, "Take it first, there are still many things that haven't been taken out."
Lu Chongfeng took a whole pork leg and two chickens and said, "Just when we said we didn't have any meat for the hot pot, the meat is here. Let's stay for lunch together."
"We'll talk about dinner later."
Zheng Xiaojun first took out a carton of Zhonghua cigarettes and a carton of Mudan brand cigarettes from the carton. "I collected all the cigarette and alcohol coupons from my colleagues, relatives and friends, and finally managed to get these two packs of cigarettes. I could only buy two bottles of Maotai and two bottles of red wine. I also got half a box of Jiangjing Daqu and half a box of yellow croaker."
“This is too generous.”
Liang Xin took the cigarette in her hand and said, "I feel like my son-in-law is giving us a gift."
Zheng Xiaojun said, "Hey, sister-in-law, who are you taking advantage of?"
Liang Xin smiled and said, "Metaphor."
Lu Wei distributed the wedding candies to Hu Fenglian and Lu Yueji, and looked at Dudu's curious eyes. "Dudu, you can't eat it yet. When you grow up, I will buy you some."
Dudu had never eaten White Rabbit milk candy and didn't know what it tasted like. She said she couldn't eat it and stopped looking at the milk candy, turning her curious eyes to the carton.
“It’s fabric.”
Zheng Xiaojun took out a piece of cloth wrapped tightly in red paper from a cardboard box. "I don't know what material it is, but I brought it back from Hong Kong. This is Dacron. I saw in the newspaper that you wear a shirt to work in a factory, so you should be able to use it. That's why I chose this one."
Hu Fenglian looked at the gifts on the ground and said, "Xiaojun, Lu Wei, you are really the newlyweds in the compound who have prepared the most complete gifts to thank the matchmaker."
"Aunt Hu, there's something better."
Zheng Xiaojun took out two folded red paper packages from his military uniform pocket and handed them to Liang Xin. "One is the red envelope that must be given to the matchmaker, and the other is the remittance vouchers and foreign exchange vouchers I prepared. It's a rare trip for you to go back to Jiangjing, and I think the Friendship Store should have what you want to buy. It's not much, you can go and have a look."
"I won't accept the two red envelopes."
Liang Xin pointed at the gifts on the ground and said, "These are already very expensive. Yesterday, I bought a pair of gold rings for us at a gold shop. The gold rings can replace countless red envelopes."
"I know this. I'm not one of those wealthy Hong Kong businessmen. In addition to my monthly salary, I can only earn a little more in royalties. Don't worry, it's not a lot."
Zheng Xiaojun handed two red envelopes to Lu Wei, who stuffed them into Liang Xin's hands. "He wants to be thorough. The red envelopes are just a token of his appreciation, and they're not too thick."
Liang Xin handed the red envelope to Lu Chongfeng, who pinched it to feel its thickness and asked, "Two hundred?"
"In pairs." Zheng Xiaojun clapped his hands, "Okay, I've given them all away, feel free to accept them. I've been single for so many years, and my salary is not low. I've saved all the money for my wife. Now is the time to spend it. Sister-in-law, I really want to thank you, so don't be polite."
Lu Wei also urged Liang Xin to stop making excuses.
Liang Xin accepted it with a smile, and pulled Lu Wei towards the sofa in the living room, "Sit down first and have a cup of tea. I happen to have something for you, too."
Xiaoshi had already helped make tea and brought it over.
Lu Wei waved her hand, "Don't spend any more money. You've already bought so many things."
Liang Xin opened the document that Minister Liang had just signed that morning. "The chicken farm of the 11th Division has started to make a profit this year. I have just applied to the higher-ups for 10% of the total profit of the chicken farm as a reward for your technical patent. It will be deposited into your account on time every year. This year's total profit is 90,000 yuan. I will call the farm later and ask for the funds to be allocated to you."
Lu Wei was stunned.
Zheng Xiaojun was stunned and stood aside looking at the documents in Liang Xin's hand.
Everyone in the living room gathered around in an instant.
Lu Chongfeng patted Zheng Xiaojun's hand and said, "I told you, your good fortune is yet to come."
Zheng Xiaojun still couldn't react, or it seemed like he was reacting slowly, and thus became even more stupid.
"Nine thousand dollars?"
After reading it, Lu Yueji exclaimed, "I have never seen so much money in my life!"
Hu Fenglian said with a sigh, "Xiaojun is lucky, but this is Lu Wei's money. You can't use Lu Wei's money to eat and drink lavishly like before."
This made Zheng Xiaojun react, "Aunt Hu, when did I eat and drink too much? Don't say that!"
Lu Wei took the document and read it over. "I'll give you the passbook account information later."
Zheng Xiaojun was surprised, "You accepted it right away, and you didn't even say a few words of courtesy?"
Lu Wei looked up at Zheng Xiaojun.
Liang Xin also looked up at Zheng Xiaojun.
Zheng Xiaojun was confused by the look and subconsciously looked at Lu Chongfeng.
Lu Chongfeng puffed out his chest, raised his chin, and looked at Zheng Xiaojun proudly, "Don't you understand? Let me translate it for you. It means that the relationship between the two of them is better than that between you and me, and it is also beyond your comprehension."
Zheng Xiaojun looked at the sofa again, "Is that so?"
Liang Xin smiled and said, "That's right."
The arc of Lu Chongfeng's mouth suddenly turned up higher, and he tapped Zheng Xiaojun's shoulder with the back of his hand, "You taught me how to fall in love in the past, tsk, the knowledge of love requires talent, you should prepare a gift for apprenticeship, and take me as your master, and I will teach you how to fall in love after marriage."
