Chapter 118 The Happy Lu Family Elders
The luggage was placed in the north room, and Shi Tingyu and Lu Weiguo began to pack.
Lu Weiguo sorted out the toiletries.
Shi Tingyu took out the cotton clothes bought for Lu's father and mother and gave them to them.
Seeing their daughter-in-law coming out with the clothes, Lu's father and mother put down the work of picking vegetables and stood up.
Shi Tingyu said, "Mom and Dad, these are the clothes that Weiguo and I bought for you. Try them and see if the size fits."
Lu's mother smiled from ear to ear, but she couldn't help muttering a few words, "We are already at this age, there is no need to wear new clothes. Save the money for you young people."
Shi Tingyu said, "Weiguo and I are not around on weekdays, so we can't take care of you, so we thought of buying you some clothes to show our filial piety."
Lu's mother felt a little distressed about the money, but she was really happy to see the new clothes.
At this time, Lu Weiguo came out of the room and said, "Mom and Dad, please try it
on to see the size. This is the size we bought before. Don't buy it if it doesn't fit. It will be a waste of money." When Lu's father and mother heard it, they hurried to try it on.
Seeing the cotton shirt that fit her body perfectly, the joy on Lu's mother's face was obvious.
This cotton shirt is purple-red, and the color saturation is not high, but it makes the face look white. Unlike the current floral cotton shirts, this cotton shirt has a detachable circle of gray rabbit fur on the collar, and the buttons are beautiful buttons, which makes it look very fashionable when worn.
"Fortunately, I didn't gain weight in the past two years, otherwise I wouldn't be able to wear such a beautiful cotton-padded jacket." As she said this, she stood in front of Lu Daming and turned back and forth, "How is it? Does it look good? This fur collar looks expensive."
Lu Daming looked at Lu's mother happily and nodded vigorously, "It looks good, like an old lady in a big city."
Lu's mother was overjoyed by Lu's father's words, and urged Lu's father, "Try your clothes on quickly, too. That cotton-padded jacket looks very neat to me. You will look very energetic in it."
Lu's father took off the old cotton-padded jacket he was wearing and put on the cotton-padded jacket that Shi Tingyu brought.
Lu Weiguo helped Lu's father button up his clothes, patted his shoulders, tugged at the hem, and said, "Not bad, the size is right."
This is more than the size is right, because of trying on clothes, Lu's father's back is straight, and he looks very energetic when wearing it.
Lu's mother looked at Lu's father, stretched out her hand from time to time to adjust the clothes on his arms, and exclaimed, "After all, these are clothes bought in big cities, and this style is good-looking."
Lu's father's clothes are black Zhongshan suit-style cotton jackets, which make him look very energetic. You get what you pay for. This cotton jacket is not cheap, and the workmanship is also good. It looks like something from a department store.
Lu's father touched the pockets and cuffs lovingly, and the size and length are just right.
Lu Weiguo handed the two pairs of pants and shoes in Shi Tingyu's hand to his parents, "Go back to the room and try on the pants and shoes."
Lu's father and mother did not refuse at this time, and took the pants and shoes and went back to the room.
When the two came out, the house had changed a lot, because the little daughter-in-law was coming back, and the clothes that Lu's father and mother wore were also the better ones in their closet, but they were still not as eye-catching as the new clothes.
Mother Lu took two steps back and forth and said, "Well, it's good, the size is suitable, and it's true that new clothes are warm."
Father Lu said, "How can it be the same? There is new cotton inside."
Mother Lu took off the cotton jacket reluctantly, "I will keep this clothes for the New Year's greetings on the first day of the new year."
Then, she asked Father Lu to take off the clothes, "You should change your clothes quickly, don't get them dirty, you will be proud when you wear them back to the village during the New Year."
Father Lu took off the cotton jacket and said, "Even if you don't wear new clothes, you will still be proud when you take our daughter-in-law back."
Mother Lu smiled and said, "I like to hear that."
Even now, she is still a little confused. She
is still thinking in her heart, is such a beautiful girl really her daughter-in-law?
In this area, there is no one who is as good-looking as her daughter-in-law
. If she didn't know her son's character, she would be a little worried that her son had snatched her daughter-in-law away.
Father and mother Lu went to change clothes, and Shi Tingyu and Lu Weiguo went back to the room to continue sorting things.
Not long after, there was a knock on the door.
Lu Weiguo said, "The door is not locked."
Mother Lu pushed the door open, holding a bowl of something carefully in her hand.
When she got closer, Shi Tingyu saw that it was a bowl of brown sugar eggs.
Mother Lu placed the bowl of hot brown sugar egg water on the table next to her and called Shi Tingyu, "Xiaoyu, this is the brown sugar egg I made for you. It's cold now, come over and eat some to warm yourself up."
Shi Tingyu didn't hesitate and walked to the table and sat down, "Thank you, Mom. I'm a little hungry."
This attitude made Mother Lu nod her head. This child is good and open-minded.
This egg is a grass egg. Although it is not as big as the foreign eggs in later generations, it tastes very good. After eating an egg and drinking some hot brown sugar water, Shi Tingyu felt warm in his stomach.
Mother Lu made a lot of eggs, a total of five. If the bowl could not hold them, she would probably make a few more.
Shi Tingyu ate two and gave the rest to Lu Weiguo.
Lu Weiguo picked up an egg and ate it, looking at Shi Tingyu and said, "I am grateful to my wife."
Lu's mother laughed and scolded, "You little bastard, when did your mother not prepare food for you when you came back?"
"Why not this time?" Lu Weiguo asked.
Lu's mother was speechless for a moment. Their whole attention was on their daughter-in-law, and they really forgot about it. However, Lu's mother still made up for herself, "You would have eaten eggs even if you hadn't."
After the young couple finished eating the eggs and brown sugar water, Lu's mother took the bowl out. When she reached the door, she couldn't help but turned back and said, "Xiaoyu, you must be tired from the car ride, so take a rest first. I'll call you when the meal is ready."
After saying that, she closed the door without waiting for the two to respond.
Shi Tingyu looked at Lu Weiguo with a smile in her eyes and said, "Your parents are very nice." She
was polite, straightforward and enthusiastic.
Lu Weiguo corrected her, "They are our parents."
Shi Tingyu: "That's what I said, so it's easy to distinguish."
Lu Weiguo stood up and led her to the bed, "Rest on the bed for a while, I'll call you when the meal is ready."
Shi Tingyu went to bed obediently. She was indeed a little tired today.
Lu Weiguo put away her down jacket, tucked her quilt and went out. After a while, he came in with an IV bottle.
"What is this?" Shi Tingyu asked.
Lu Weiguo took out his new pair of socks, put them on the IV bottle, and stuffed the bottle into the quilt, "It's filled with hot water, use it to warm the quilt."
The hot water bottle was stuffed in, and Shi Tingyu felt the heat as soon as she put her feet on it.
It was a bit hot, but she had to move it away after just a few seconds. Only
then did she know that the infusion bottle could be used in this way. When she was born in her original world, it was already far away from the 1970s. At that time, rubber hot water bags were used, red, green, and various colors. She
had never used this kind of hot water bottle.
