Chapter 320: Subsequent content is being revised
The next day, just after breakfast and Wen Shihua left, Zhou Mingli came over.
Zhou Mingli had prepared the gifts for the Zhou family early in the morning. Old man Zhou liked to have a drink, so Zhou Mingli specially bought the most famous local "Sanliangye" from Xinxi and also packed a pound of his favorite tea cakes.
Lu Chun'e had nothing to worry about and because of this, Wen Wan felt a little more at ease when she entrusted Lu Chun'e to him.
Although the Wen family and the Zhou family belong to the same compound, they are located in the south and north respectively, and the distance between them is quite far.
For some reason, Zhou Mingli didn't drive here, but instead picked up Lu Chun'e and walked slowly home carrying the things.
Lu Chun'e was a little nervous.
"Will everyone in your family come today?"
Zhou Mingli nodded: "Yes, since this is your first visit, they will naturally come to take a look."
Lu Chun'e became even more nervous.
The two of them walked side by side. Zhou Mingli took advantage of the fact that no one was around to quietly grab her hand and squeeze it. "We're just going back to have a meal with the old man. You really don't need to care about other people. You don't need to care about what they think or what they say. Just have a meal and get to know each other. After the meal, if you want, you can stay a little longer. If not, we'll leave."
Lu Chun'e took two deep breaths and smiled at him: "Okay, I'm not nervous anymore."
Zhou Mingli chuckled and changed the subject: "There are still a few days left before school starts. How are you planning to spend your time?"
Lu Chun'e turned and glanced at him: "I might have to go back to Tonghua Lane. My brother is over there, I have to go see him, what about you?"
"Then I'll go back with you."
Lu Chun'e poked his palm and asked, "Where are you going back to?"
Zhou Mingli stopped and looked at her: "Did you forget? What I told you last time? I have a house over there too, but it's not cleaned up yet."
After saying that, he quickly moved closer to her and said, "Pack up. We'll live there after we get married."
Lu Chun'e's cheeks flushed, and she looked down at her feet: "Who wants to marry you!"
Zhou Mingli pretended not to hear: "Well, it's okay for us not to live there. I'll report it when we return to the team." But Tonghua Lane also needs to be cleaned up. After all, it is in the city, and they must have a place to stay when they come back, so they don't have to run to the compound.
Lu Chun'e looked at him puzzledly: "What report?"
"Marriage report!"
After saying this, he couldn't help but laugh when he saw the girl in front of him twist her face. "I need to file a marriage report, then apply to accompany the army, and then apply for the family compound over there."
After saying that, he added, "Well, wait until you have decided when you are willing to marry me and then I will call you." That definitely won't work. You have to prepare in advance.
Lu Chun'e was honest, especially when it came to big things. Despite her girlish reserve and shyness, she always spoke her mind. "Well, that's still too early. I'm only a sophomore this year, and I'm starting my internship during the summer vacation." Then, looking at Zhou Mingli, she said, "You'll be back at the end of this semester. Don't you have any vacation time?"
"Um!"
Lu Chun'e bit her lip lightly and said, "So, which military district are you in? If I'm doing my internship, I'll go to the military district hospital where you are."
Zhou Mingli's eyes lit up when he heard this: "Okay!" His words were concise, but his heart was filled with joy. He had thought so too, but it was completely different to say it out loud.
It is said that the Zhou family is some distance away from the Wen family, but Lu Chun'e felt that she had arrived right before she had even walked far.
I was nervous, but I had no choice but to go ahead with it. An ugly daughter-in-law always has to meet her parents-in-law.
When they returned, it was almost evening. Zhou Mingli had to send the people back after picking them up. Knowing that the two of them were going back to Tonghua Lane the next day, Zhou Mingli took the responsibility of sending them back.
Wen Wan had no objection. His going just saved Zhang Qianfeng the trouble of making another trip.
After everyone left, Wen Wan finally had time to ask Lu Chun'e, "How was your first time meeting the Zhou family?"
Lu Chun'e didn't answer her immediately. Instead, she pondered in her mind for a moment before saying, "Mr. Zhou seems quite kind, and his brothers are also okay and polite. My sister-in-law is also okay." After she finished speaking, she smiled and said, "We talked for a while, and I could tell that they really looked down on me. Some of them even mocked Zhou Mingli for finding someone like me who came from the countryside."
"I was very nervous and uncomfortable at first, but then I didn't feel anything at all. Their birth is just a reincarnation, a blessing from their parents, but you have to live your life yourself, and no one else can do it for you. I come from a rural background, but I have come this far by relying on my own abilities. I was admitted to university and will have a very respectable job in the future. They have nothing, are not as educated as me, and even their jobs rely on their family background. What qualifications do they have to look down on me and make fun of Zhou Mingli?"
Wen Wan nodded with relief: "You really have grown up. It's best to think this way."
Lu Chun'e nodded and stopped talking about it: "We're going to Tonghua Lane tomorrow. Do you want to take Dandan with you?"
"I won't take him with me. His hands and feet are still freezing in this weather. There's an auntie taking care of him at home, and the place is spacious. I'll be very busy if I go there and won't have time to take him with me."
Dandan is used to staying with Wen Shihua, so she won’t stay with him at night. They will be together during the day, but she will still be with her grandfather at night.
So, when she left the next day, Dandan didn't feel sad, but felt a little happy instead.
Because Wen Wan was gone, his aunt would just coax him to finish writing the words he needed to write, and he could run around wherever he wanted in the rest of the time.
But what he didn't expect was that his good days would end once Wen Wan left.
In the morning, Wen Shihua got up and pulled the person out of bed and took him out. The grandfather and grandson began their morning exercise that was like a tug-of-war.
When they arrived at Tonghua Lane, Wen Wan went to Ai Shang first.
Unexpectedly, Lu Donglin was also there. He turned over every possible place in the backyard and rebuilt the edges.
The upstairs and downstairs are all clean.
When Wen Wan and the others arrived, he was sowing vegetable seeds, and no one knew where he got them from.
When he opened the door and entered the house, Lu Chun'e looked at him for a long time without saying a word. Lu Donglin felt inexplicably guilty.
"Sis, if you want to scold me, just say it. Don't look at me like that."
Lu Chun'e suddenly raised her foot and kicked him: "I feel like I'm wasting my breath scolding you. You're not brave enough, but you're so bold? It's a big deal, you just don't like it. Why don't you go find Brother Dongcheng and send a telegram here? Is your dislike more important than your life?"
As he spoke, his eyes turned red.
Zhou Mingli stood behind her. It was the first time he met his future brother-in-law, and also the first time he saw Lu Chun'e so angry.
The Lu family members are all good at growing up. They are not tall and strong, but they all have good looks.
Lu Donglin and Lu Dongping are about half similar in their features, but he also has Zhang Hongying's looks, slightly more feminine. Fortunately, he has a cheerful personality, so it's not too much.
Zhou Mingli gently called out to Lu Chun'e, "Okay, don't be angry. Isn't he okay? That's good enough."
Wen Wan also said: "It's a blessing in disguise. At least he knew to come to the capital to find us. That means he's not completely stupid."
Lu Chun'e sniffed and ignored him, even though he had a flattering smile on his face.
Wen Wan introduced him: "This is the person your sister is dating now. His surname is Zhou, Zhou Mingli."
Lu Donglin's expression changed immediately. He looked Zhou Mingli up and down, and after a while he finally said, "Hello."
Zhou Mingli didn't care and helped take the things out of the car.
Lu Donglin helped to clean up and discussed with Wen Wan: "Sister-in-law, I have cleaned up every corner here. I will move in here and I can help you with housekeeping."
Wen Wan had originally thought so, but she didn't know how to start the conversation. It would naturally be the best thing if he took the initiative.
"Sure, if you want to do it, just move over."
Lu Donglin breathed a sigh of relief. He indeed felt more comfortable living here.
"Sister-in-law, Brother Qingming came yesterday, along with one of your classmates, and brought you two big bags of things."
Wen Wan was stunned for a moment: "He's back?"
Lu Donglin scratched his head: "I didn't ask much, I just said you went back there, and he said he would come to see you when he had time."
Free? Wen Wan raised an eyebrow: "Is he so busy?"
Then she thought of Xu Qingming's current situation and smiled knowingly. Indeed, he was quite busy.
We're all away from home during the New Year, and although my third uncle is open-minded, he still has to suffer some setbacks.
Unless, he can really bring his partner back this year.
However, that is impossible.
Xu Qingming got off the bus yesterday and went straight to Tonghua Lane to deliver the things for Wen Wan and then send Li Laiyu back.
Then he returned to the staff family compound at Hua University.
Then, I came to Tonghua Lane again today, but not to find Wen Wan, but went directly to Li Lai Yu.
Ms. Wang Mengfang gave him advice, asking him to be more diligent, meticulous and considerate.
Since it is rare to like someone, you must always strive for it and do your best. If it still doesn't work out, there is nothing to regret.
Good women are afraid of being entangled by fierce men.
Xu Qingming deeply agreed.
Li Laiyu is a girl with a cold personality, but he has enough patience to warm her up little by little.
He would make himself an inseparable part of her life.
In this life, unless she really doesn't want to get married, then he will accept it. Otherwise, it can only be him.
Before this, he was not as good as him.
I have been single for more than 20 years, so I don’t care about the present time.
What he didn't expect was that Li Lai Yu had no intention of giving him this opportunity.
She went to Guangzhou for important business.
Find suitable fabrics, paints, and threads.
Like Wen Wan, she likes making clothes, but they take two completely different paths.
Wen Wan likes to do it and wants to develop what she likes into a career.
She is different. She likes it because she looks down on the current things. If she has the ability, she hopes to create better things.
She does all the weaving, printing, dyeing, embroidery and garment making by herself step by step.
She just didn't expect that Xu Qingming would chase her and follow her to a place as far away as Guangzhou, and never come back for the New Year.
She just doesn't like unnecessary things and people because it's too troublesome.
But she was not stupid, she knew what Xu Qingming wanted to do.
But she didn't want to.
No one can force her to do something she doesn't want to do.
So, when Xu Qingming came to her house again, although she didn't lock him out, she didn't beat around the bush and asked him directly, "Why didn't you stay home for a while instead of going home for the New Year?"
Xu Qingming said: "It's the same wherever you are." Where the heart belongs is home.
Li Laiyu chuckled, invited him into the house, made him some tea, and said, "Do you like me and want to pursue me?"
Xu Qingming was slightly stunned. Perhaps because of his age, he didn't show any panic or shyness. He spoke frankly, "Yes, I like you and want to pursue you."
"I've never liked a girl before, and I've never wanted to be with someone like I do now. Even if that girl doesn't like to cry or laugh, and is as strong as a rock wall, I still want to accompany her, even if it's just walking together without talking."
Li Laiyu was slightly startled, then sighed: "We are not suitable."
Xu Qingming's heart sank slightly: "I didn't do enough."
Li Laiyu shook his head: "No, no, it's me. I don't plan to find a partner. The present life is too precious to me. I don't want to change it or break it."
"I won't restrict you. I won't make your life any different now, only better."
Li Laiyu chuckled when he heard this, and the smile dazzled Xu Qingming's eyes: "No, you don't understand. One person is free, but two people are troublesome."
Whether your life is good or not is up to you alone to decide; other people’s promises don’t count.
After all, people's hearts are fickle.
