Lu Xiuyuan suppressed the disappointment in his heart and handed over the gift in his hand.
"Bo Li, it doesn't matter if Comrade Su is not at home. I brought these gifts to you. I didn't bring any gifts last time, so I bought some more for you this time."
Tang Chunlan did not take them immediately, but just took a look at the gifts. From the exposed corners, she could guess that they were of great value.
Tang Chunlan turned her gaze back to Lu Xiuyuan and looked at him seriously.
"Comrade Lu, are you pursuing my daughter?"
Lu Xiuyuan didn't expect Tang Chunlan to speak so bluntly. He was a little flustered for a moment, but he quickly suppressed it and looked at her seriously.
"Yes!" His tone was firm, and his eyes showed no evasion.
Tang Chunlan was very satisfied with this. Many men would always be vague and avoid the main issue when they meet the girl's father.
To put it bluntly, they behave like this because their intentions are not pure.
Lu Xiuyuan behaved very honestly, which surprised Tang Chunlan a little.
"Comrade Lu, let's go over there and talk." Tang Chunlan did not invite Lu Xiuyuan to her house, but gestured to the old locust tree at the entrance of the village.
There is a stone bench underneath, and the villagers will sit on it to enjoy the cool and rest when they have free time.
"Okay." Lu Xiuyuan responded.
Tang Chunlan sat down first, but Lu Xiuyuan still stood straight in front of her.
"Don't be nervous, sit down, I just want to chat with you casually." Tang Chunlan said with a smile.
"Yes." Lu Xiuyuan put the bag in his hand aside and sat upright on the other side of the stone bench.
"Comrade Lu, do you know Mr. Lu?" As soon as Lu Xiuyuan sat down, Tang Chunlan directly asked a heavyweight question.
Lu Xiuyuan was stunned and looked at Tang Chunlan with some surprise.
He quickly realized that the Huo family had spent a lot of time in Beijing before. Although they had no contact with his family, they must have heard of his grandfather's name.
"If you are asking about Lu Xingchang, then he is my grandfather." Although his grandfather was the only old driver with the surname Lu in Beijing, Lu Xiuyuan still said his grandfather's name.
"You really are from the Lu family in Beijing." Tang Chunlan already had a guess in her mind, and was still a little surprised when she got a positive answer.
"Bo Li, I am me, my grandfather is my grandfather, and I am serious about Comrade Su!" Lu Xiuyuan was afraid that Tang Chunlan would misunderstand that he was just acting on impulse, so he solemnly stated his attitude.
"But for a family like yours, it's not enough for you to be serious alone. You should know the situation of our family. As long as we stay in Shimatou Village, the relationship between you and Miaomiao cannot be resolved." Tang Chunlan's tone was very gentle, but her eyes were always fixed on Lu Xiuyuan.
Lu Xiuyuan wanted to say something, but Tang Chunlan added.
"If you insist on being together, either you give up everything you have now and live with Miaomiao in Shimatou Village. Or you can only wait for us to return to Beijing. But Comrade Lu, none of us knows when we can go back, or maybe we will never have the chance in this life. Which path do you think you and Miaomiao can choose?"
After hearing this, Lu Xiuyuan understood Tang Chunlan's worries to some extent. He stood up and looked at her seriously.
"Bo Li, I understand what you mean, but I will not choose either of the two paths you give me."
"So you are planning to give up?" Tang Chunlan frowned slightly, but soon relaxed.
Even if their family had not encountered any misfortune, they would not have been able to come into contact with people like the Lu family if they stayed in Beijing.
She thought it would be good for her daughter to find someone with a similar family background, so that they, as her family members, could support her.
But the next moment, Lu Xiuyuan spoke again.
"I have been serving in the army since I graduated from the military academy. During this period, I have made many contributions, both large and small. I didn't care about these things before, and just wanted to complete the tasks assigned to me by the organization. In the future, I will work harder, and I will use enough merits and medals to exchange for a chance for Comrade Su and I to be together!"
"Of course, the prerequisite is that Comrade Su is willing to be with me." Lu Xiuyuan said in a firm tone.
