Chapter 12: The Ultimate Logic
When Lu Danian went out with the stick, Lin Mu said with a playful smile: "Uncle, what are you doing? We will be a family sooner or later."
This made Lu Danian feel nauseous: "Who are you family with?"
Lin Mu said, "I'll just marry Lu Xiang later."
Lu Danian was so angry that his face turned pale. He was so angry that he didn't care about anything else. He swung the stick and was about to hit him. You could hear the sound of the stick breaking the wind when he swung it.
How could Lin Mu let him succeed? He even hid and ran away, but he still didn't stop: "Uncle, I will come to propose marriage tomorrow."
Seeing that this stinky scoundrel was still pestering him, he said, "If you dare to come here, I'll give you a discount."
Lin Mu was almost hit by the wooden stick, and he rolled and crawled over the wall to get out.
Lu Danian was so angry that he opened the door and chased after him for several meters.
Lin Mu, this hooligan, does such sneaky things in the village. Running fast is his way to save his life. He came back when Lu Danian couldn't catch up with him.
When he got to the house, he went to comfort the frightened Lu Xiang and Lu's mother. He wanted to say that he had driven the gangster away. But facing Lu Xiang's clear eyes under the lamp, he was speechless and slapped himself hard.
"Dad." Lu Xiang was startled.
Lu Danian's chest heaved up and down, as if he had countless words to say, but when he opened his mouth, no word came out: "Dad is sorry for you." If he hadn't been crazy and agreed to Grandma Lu's marriage exchange, how could even a little hooligan dare to bully Lu Xiang.
If this kind of gangster were to make a fuss outside, Lu Xiang's reputation would be affected!
Mother Lu knew what Lu Danian was thinking and said, "I will sleep with Xiang'er tonight."
Lu Danian was afraid that Lin Mu would strike back again: "I won't sleep tonight, I will keep watch here."
Lu Xiang said, "Dad, you should go to bed. We have to work in the fields tomorrow." They still use the commuter system here. If he stays up late, he won't be able to make it tomorrow.
Mother Lu said, "Yes, go back to sleep. I'll call you if there's anything."
When Lu Danian heard this, he wiped away his tears and went back to the house.
Lu Xiang and her mother turned off the lights before going to bed for fear of wasting electricity, but Lu Xiang suffered from insomnia in the dark.
Lin Mu was Aunt Lu's nephew, a man of many vices. In her previous life, Lu Xiang had gone mad and was running around, and Lin Mu had tried to force her. Lu Xiang had run all the way up a mountain, but she missed a step and fell to her death. This black sheep must not be allowed to get away with it.
Lu Xiang knew that he and some small hooligans had been placing nails on the national highway to block roads and rob people. If they were caught, they would be punished during the crackdown in the 1980s.
But she is just an adult now, how can she make others believe her?
Lu Xiang thought about it for most of the night, and only fell into a drowsy sleep at dawn.
The next morning, she heard a man's voice and Lu's mother's voice intertwined outside. She wanted to open her eyes, but she was too tired.
But she could feel someone enter the room and seemed to be watching her for a while. After a long time, the feeling of being watched disappeared, and she fell into a deep sleep.
When she woke up, it was already past ten o'clock. No one in the village slept so late. Lu Xiang had a good sleep and her cheeks were rosy. She put on her shoes and went out. Mother Lu was still at home.
Originally, Mother Lu was going to work with Lu Danian, but she was afraid her daughter would be upset, so she asked the village chief for a leave of absence. At this moment, Mother Lu looked like she had made a mistake. She pointed at the five multi-grain steamed buns on the table and said, "Xiao Fu brought these over. He just helped chop some firewood. I don't want him to stay."
Mother Lu is not good at saying no, and she doesn't know what to do when faced with such a thing.
Lu Xiang went out and saw that the water tank at home was full and the firewood was piled up. Fu Qinhui was planting vegetable seedlings in the yard. Although he was a college student, he grew up in the countryside and knew how to do these things.
Lu Xiang watched for a moment, then saw Fu Qinhui's figure. There were two or three idle people outside, not far away, watching the excitement. It was work time, and the village chief had already sent everyone away, otherwise even more people would have come to watch the excitement.
Aunt Lu came over from a distance and saw a hint of jealousy in Fu Qinhui's eyes.
The previous marriage exchange was planned by Aunt Lu and Grandma Lu. They were afraid that Uncle Lu would not agree, so after drinking, they asked him to go to the next village to distribute wedding candies. When Uncle Lu came back, he found that Lu Zhaodi was still at home. After asking, he realized the stupid thing they had done and was furious.
Uncle Lu, being the younger generation, naturally couldn't blame his mother, so all his anger was directed at Aunt Lu. The two began to quarrel, and eventually came to blows.
Aunt Lu was slapped several times and cried and screamed, and the neighbors could hear her. In the morning, a few people who had a grudge against her came to ask about it, but she gave them a cold and sarcastic reply.
Now she was here to cause trouble for Lu Xiang. Seeing Fu Qinhui actually helping her family plant the garden, her heart felt like it was soaked in vinegar.
Aunt Lu said, "Oh Qinhui, you're a college student, what are you doing?" Then she called out Mother Lu and said, "No one is bullying others like you. Some people look honest but are actually malicious."
Mother Lu is used to being honest. She dares not talk back even when being criticized, and she trembles with nervousness when arguing with others.
Lu Xiang asked, "Aunt, what are you doing here?"
Aunt Lu looked at Fu Qinhui and deliberately raised her voice, "Lin Mu has taken a liking to you. He said he came over to you last night and mentioned it to you. Now he wants me to be your matchmaker."
Mother Lu was shaking with anger: "Lin Mu is such a man, and you are still trying to be a matchmaker for Lu Xiang?"
Aunt Lu said coldly: "Just look for the right person. What's wrong with Lin Mu? He's smart and knows how to feel pain and warmth. Besides, if you don't agree, take care of your daughter and don't seduce him!" Her words were full of disparagement of Lu Xiang, saying that she was not serious.
Mother Lu was shaking. She had deliberately said this kind of thing in front of Fu Qinhui. It was so evil that it was pus and water.
Lu Xiang said, "Lin Mu climbed over the wall yesterday and was nearly beaten to death by my father. You're still speaking up for this scoundrel, no wonder Lin Mu is so fearless. It turns out he has your support!"
Aunt Lu said, "I didn't support him. If you don't agree, forget it. There's no need to be so sarcastic. If you hadn't interfered, Fu Qinhui would be my son-in-law now. I'll settle this account with you slowly!"
Lu Xiang was amused by her selfishness. She would also say sarcastic words: "Oh, Aunt, you don't dislike Fu Qinhui because he is not from the city, so you have other plans. Could it be that you forgot such an important thing when you went out without your brain?"
Aunt Lu glared at Lu Xiang: "Little bitch, what nonsense are you talking about." Then she reached out to hit Lu Xiang, but was grabbed by the arm by Fu Qinhui.
Fu Qinhui said, "Aunt Lu, Lu Xiang is my wife, please be polite!"
