Hearing Shen Wanshan's words, Lu Dajun frowned fiercely, because he really hadn't thought about it in this way.
In their time, there were many couples who had never met before marriage, and they had spent most of their lives together.
However, things are different now. Young people value mutual consent and liking each other.
If it is really as Shen Wanshan said, wouldn’t it harm Xiaofen.
Lu Dajun only sighed softly, "Never mind. Marriage is a big deal, and you can't force it. After all, you can't force a cow to drink water."
Hearing Lu Dajun's relief, Shen Wanshan's hanging heart was slightly relieved.
He was really afraid that Lu Dajun would fight him to the death, which would make things awkward.
"Lao Lu, don't worry, what I just said is still valid. After I finish the brat's wedding, I will arrange for those kids from my old friend's family to come over as guests."
"Thank you very much." Lu Dajun put down the teacup gently. "You go ahead and do your work. I'll come back for a cup of tea some other day when I'm free."
"You're welcome anytime."
After sending Lu's army away, Shen Wanshan finally let go of his worries.
Just at this moment, Shen Cinian came over and said, “Grandpa, Grandpa Lu is gone?”
"Well, I persuaded her to leave." Shen Wanshan sighed softly, "Your Grandpa Lu said that Xiaofen has been crying all day since she learned about your marriage."
At this point, Shen Wanshan raised his eyes to look at Shen Cinian and jokingly said, “By the way, do you really have no idea about that girl Xiaofen?”
"No, I only like Ningning."
"Since you've chosen Xiao Tang, you must treat her well in the future. Otherwise, not only will your in-laws, but even I won't forgive you."
"Don't worry, Grandpa."
Looking at the smile that could not be concealed on Shen Cinian's face, Shen Wanshan also showed a smile on his face.
"Okay, go check if there's anything else that needs to be cleaned up at home. Don't neglect Xiao Tang."
"Okay, then I'll help you go and rest for a while."
-
Lu family.
As soon as Lu Dajun stepped into the yard, Lu Xiaofen came to meet him. She asked anxiously, "Grandpa, how is it? Did Brother Nian agree to marry me?"
"Xiao Fen, there are so many good men in the world, why do you have to fall in love with that kid from the Shen family?"
Lu Xiaofen looked at Lu Dajun with sparkling eyes, her eyes were bright and shining as if they had been washed by water.
"Grandpa, there's no logic to liking someone."
"Xiao Fen, listen to Grandpa's advice. A forced melon won't be sweet. Give up."
"Brother Nian still won't marry me? Why am I inferior to that country bumpkin? Why does he treat me like this?"
As she spoke, Lu Xiaofen's eyes filled with tears. The next second, she suddenly grabbed Lu Dajun's sleeve and begged:
"Grandpa, please help me. I've never loved someone so much in my life. Even if a forced melon isn't sweet, I'm going to pull it off and taste it myself!"
Seeing his granddaughter's stubbornness, Lu Dajun felt a headache.
"Xiao Fen, Grandpa can agree to anything you ask for, except this one." Lu Dajun's attitude was unquestionable. "Marriage is a lifelong event, how can it be treated as a joke? Besides, have you ever thought about the consequences if you force yourself to marry Xiao Shen?"
"I don't care. I just want to marry Brother Nian. Even if I die after marrying him, I am willing to do it."
Upon hearing this, Lu Dajun was so angry that his veins popped out and even his hands began to tremble slightly.
This is the granddaughter he doted on since childhood. She would risk her life for a man at any time, which is a disgrace to the Lu family!
With a loud "bang", Lu Xiaofen's face was hit off-center by Lu Dajun.
Seeing his granddaughter's cheeks swelling up rapidly like steamed buns made of leavened dough, Lu Dajun regretted it.
But years of dignity made him unable to bend down and apologize to the younger generation, and he couldn't even say a soft word.
"I've really spoiled you. Now all you can think about is love and romance." Lu Dajun scolded coldly, "Is this all you have? You're always willing to die for a man. What's the matter? In your eyes, we family members are not even as good as outsiders?"
Lu Xiaofen was very angry after being slapped.
But after hearing what her grandfather said, she was choked and couldn't say a word.
Even the resentment in my heart completely dissipated in an instant.
"Grandpa, I'm sorry I disappointed you."
Lu Xiaofen lowered her head, her heart feeling as if it were being pricked by a needle.
Because of her grandfather's words and that slap, the thought in her heart was completely shattered.
But her heart really hurt, as if it was being tightly grasped by a big hand, and it hurt so much that she couldn't breathe.
"It's okay, as long as you can figure it out. There are many good men in this world, not just Chen Ci Nian. He doesn't like you, that's because he doesn't know the difference between gold and jade. My Xiao Fen is the best girl in the world, and she will definitely find someone who will treasure you like a pearl."
"I understand, Grandpa."
"Alright, let Aunt Zhang take care of your cheek." Lu Dajun's eyes were full of heartache. "You've grown up now. You can't be so willful anymore."
After saying that, Lu Dajun went straight back to his room, leaving Lu Xiaofen standing there alone, crying uncontrollably.
However, time is like sand in your hand. No matter how hard you hold it, it will not stay for a moment because of your joys, sorrows, anger or happiness.
Day and night rotate.
Just as the first ray of morning sunlight shone on Tang Wanning's face, there was a knock on her door.
"Ningning, Ningning, it's getting late, it's time to get up and put on makeup."
Hearing his mother's call, Tang Wanning rubbed his sleepy eyes and said vaguely, "Mom, what time is it?"
"It's already past five o'clock, and the sky is bright. Hurry up and get up, put on makeup and change clothes."
"Mom, it's still early. I'll sleep a little longer."
"Have you forgotten what day it is today? Hurry up and get up, or you will miss the auspicious time."
"I know, Mom, I'll get up now."
After hearing her daughter's agreement, Su Meijuan returned to her room with satisfaction, while Tang Wanning quickly entered the space.
After taking a comfortable hot bath, she started to put on makeup in front of the mirror.
These skin care products and cosmetics were all made by Tang Wanning based on the formulas he bought from the system mall. They are many times better than the products of this era.
After all, marriage is a lifelong event, and Tang Wanning doesn't want to settle for anything less.
In the mirror, Tang Wanning watched the blush sweep across her cheeks, as if spring peach blossoms were sprinkled on her face, making her look even more charming and beautiful.
A pair of almond-shaped eyes flickered, as if there were thousands of stars hidden in them.
"Yeah, perfect!"
Just as I finished putting on my makeup, Su Meijuan's slightly anxious voice was heard outside the door.
"Ningning, have you finished your makeup? If you don't know how, I still have time to find a makeup artist now."
"Okay, okay, wait a minute, I'll be right there after I change my clothes."
"Okay, hurry up and come out and let me see it. If it doesn't fit, there's still time to remake it."
