Chapter 395 I don’t have any normal hobbies
"Xingning, what I'm asking is what your grandfather and your father like..." Tao Zhou took a deep breath and asked patiently.
"My grandfather..." Lu Xingning thought for a moment.
"My grandfather likes the paintings my sister-in-law draws and the clothes she alters."
Her grandfather was reluctant to wear the Tang suit that her sister-in-law had altered for him unless it was an important occasion.
And her sister-in-law's paintings...
Her grandfather wouldn't let anyone touch her.
Tao Zhou was speechless.
Can't you like something more normal?!
"My dad..." Lu Xingning thought for a long time.
"My dad doesn't seem to like anything."
Her father's food and clothing are all arranged by her mother. Her father eats and wears whatever her mother prepares.
Now that I think about it, her father doesn't seem to have any hobbies other than being busy with work every day.
Tao Zhou was completely speechless.
His parents asked him to ask...
How is he going to explain this when he gets back?!
"What about your brother? What does he like?" Tao Zhou tried hard to force a smile.
"My brother..." Lu Xingning frowned.
Her brother...
Apart from work, she serves her sister-in-law every day.
Tao Zhou looked at Lu Xingning intently, waiting for her reply.
Lu Xingning shook his head.
"What do you mean by shaking your head?" Tao Zhou was devastated.
"My brother is in the military area twelve hours out of twenty-four hours a day..." If her sister-in-law hadn't been in the compound, Lu Xingning suspected that her brother would stay in the military area twenty-four hours a day.
Tao Zhou had nothing to say.
It was the New Year holiday, and the Tao family was waiting for news in the house.
When they heard the door open, they all stood up and went to greet it.
"Xiao Zhou, what did Lu Xingning say?" Tao Zhou's mother Liu Hailan spoke first.
The excitement was beyond words.
"Brother, what did my sister-in-law say? Tell me quickly, did she agree to let us go?" Tao Xiaoyue also looked anxious.
If her brother became the son-in-law of Chief Lu, no one would dare to look down on her family.
Once her brother moved into the compound, she could move in under the pretext of visiting him and his wife...
I heard that the young men in the compound are not only handsome, but also have great prospects.
Although Tao Yong, the head of the Tao family, did not express it as obviously as Liu Hailan and Tao Xiaoyue, one could see the eagerness hidden in his eyes as he stared at Tao Zhou intently.
"I agree." Tao Zhou nodded.
"Great! We can go to the compound now." Tao Xiaoyue jumped up with joy.
Liu Hailan also rubbed her hands excitedly.
"Keep your voice down!" Tao Yong frowned and glared at his fussy daughter.
As if afraid that others can't hear it.
They came to your door, and this was just the first step.
There's not even a clue about the fate of the family, why get so excited?
"Xiao Zhou, have you asked Lu Xingning's grandfather and father what kind of wine they like to drink?" Liu Hailan poured water for Tao Zhou attentively.
"I asked, and Xingning said that the wine her grandfather and her father drink is not sold outside at all." Tao Zhou took the water glass and sighed.
Tao Yong was startled.
Then he reacted quickly.
He was just thinking too simply.
According to the Lu family's family background...
Even if it is sold outside, it is probably not affordable for a family like theirs.
"Did she tell me what else her grandfather and father like?" Tao Yong asked.
If you want to catch the eyes of the Lu family, you must please them.
Tao Zhou sighed and shook his head.
"What do you mean by shaking your head? Is it you who didn't ask, or Lu Xingning who didn't say?" Liu Hailan was anxious.
"I asked, and Lu Xingning also told me, but it was the same as if she hadn't said anything. She said that her grandfather liked the paintings drawn by her sister-in-law and the clothes altered by her sister-in-law..." Tao Zhou wanted to sigh again.
What kind of hobby is this!
I don’t wear new clothes, I like to wear old clothes that have been altered.
And the paintings her sister-in-law drew...
Tao Zhou was even more confused.
What good paintings can Jian Qingyi, who applied for home-schooling right after entering school, draw?
Saying that I am studying at home is just an excuse.
Everyone knew that she went back to take care of her pregnancy.
It's just that everyone turned a blind eye because of the Lu family.
"Lu Xingning's sister-in-law can also make clothes?" Liu Hailan was a little surprised.
Didn't you say you were an artist? Why are you making clothes now?
"She is said to be able to embroider." Tao Zhou heard Lu Xingning mention it.
"Everyone can embroider! At our age, who can't embroider some magpies, plum blossoms, and mandarin ducks?" Liu Hailan looked disdainful.
Only young people like them don’t know how to do that.
"Mom, you can just say this at home, but you are not allowed to say nonsense when we get to the Lu family." Tao Zhou frowned and reminded.
Judging from what Lu Xingning said, the Lu family members valued her sister-in-law very much, not to mention that her sister-in-law was pregnant with twins.
In the Lu family's generation, Lu Xingning was the only child.
What the wealthy families value is the inheritance of incense...
"Your mother is not stupid!" Liu Hailan smiled.
How could a girl from a small county town who could marry into a large compound be simple-minded?!
Such people can only be befriended, not offended.
"Xingning said that her sister-in-law is pregnant and needs to rest. She asked us not to make a lot of noise and disturb her sister-in-law's rest when we go there." Tao Zhou said again.
Tao Xiaoyue didn't like to hear this.
What does it mean to stop making loud noises and disturb her sister-in-law's rest?
Isn't it just a pregnancy?!
What’s so great about it?
Do you really think you are the queen and pregnant with the prince?!
"Oh, by the way, Lu Xingning said her sister-in-law likes to eat the freshly baked snacks in Yunlai Hotel." Tao Zhou suddenly remembered this.
"The dim sum at Yunlai Hotel..." Tao Xiaoyue was suddenly excited.
"She might as well eat gold."
Yunlai’s snacks cost dozens of yuan a box, and her monthly salary is not enough to buy two boxes.
Liu Hailan also frowned when she heard this.
A box of snacks from their supply and marketing cooperative is only two dollars and fifty cents.
"Buy it!" Tao Yong said.
"I heard that you have to queue up to buy snacks at Yunlai Hotel." Liu Hailan looked distressed.
"Then go early." Tao Yong said in a firm tone.
A woman from a small county town who could marry into the Lu family must have some abilities.
There's no harm in making friends with such people.
"Bring all the canned food, malted milk, and milk powder from home tomorrow..." Tao Yong said with a frown.
"I still have to buy two bottles of good wine..."
Whether they drink or not, proper etiquette cannot be abandoned.
"As for fruits, you have to pick the good ones and don't be too stingy." Tao Yong said this to Liu Hailan.
After being married for decades, he still didn't know her.
Every time I buy fruit, I always buy the cheap ones.
When it comes to fruits, it’s cheaper if you eat them at home, but if you want to give them as gifts, you’d better buy good ones.
Especially for a family like the Lu family.
Even good people may not be interested in it, let alone bad ones.
The next day.
Before dawn, Tao Xiaoyue was kicked out by her mother Liu Hailan.
Although Tao Xiaoyue was unhappy, she still took the early bus to Yunlai Hotel.
Liu Hailan went to the department store with a stack of big unity bills in her arms.
Although she felt sad, she also knew that you can't catch a wolf without sacrificing your child.
For her son's bright future and her daughter's lifelong happiness, she is willing to give it all today.
