Chapter 196 Family Reunion
Thinking of Lu Weiguo and his wife who had visited their factory last year, the gatekeeper said, "You are the family of Director Chen's daughter-in-law, right?"
Seeing Shi's father and his wife nod, the gatekeeper smiled even more happily.
"Oh, that's true. I've seen your daughter. She's very filial. You have raised a good daughter."
Hearing the grandfather talking about his daughter, Shi's father and mother became interested. After asking, they found out that their daughter had been here before.
Both sides were humble and boastful. The grandfather's Mandarin was not standard, but both sides chatted happily.
Lu's mother saw the family of three standing at the factory gate from a distance and trotted over.
Whenever a worker passed by, she would introduce them with a proud look on her face, "The ones at the door are my daughter-in-law's parents and brother."
Shi's father, mother, and Shi Muchan, both in appearance and inwardly, were extraordinary.
Shi's father and mother looked like wealthy intellectuals, and Shi Muchan's green military uniform was not to be underestimated.
The workers couldn't help but secretly marvel, the Lu family really made a good marriage.
The other party didn't look like an ordinary family.
Thinking of the Lu family's daughter-in-law who had come to the factory last time, the workers were envious again.
After Lu's mother finished showing off, she didn't care about the expressions of the workers, and smiled from a distance, "In-laws!" Shi's
father and mother had already seen Lu's mother's loud voice, so they adapted well at this time.
When Lu's mother saw Shi Muhan, her eyes lit up. Seeing Shi Muhan's appearance, Lu's mother knew that this man must be Shi Tingyu's elder brother.
Shi Muhan greeted Lu's mother, and Lu's mother smiled brightly, "This is Xiaoyu's elder brother, he looks really energetic, and I feel friendly when I see him in a military uniform."
Shi Muhan secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Lu's mother's character. I
have always heard that Lu's mother is a nice person and has a straightforward personality. Only when I saw her did I really understand. After
the two sides exchanged greetings for a while, Lu's mother got into the back seat of the car and sat with Shi's mother, while Shi's father sat in the passenger seat.
On the way, they went to the steel plant again.
The guard of the steel plant saw Lu Daming's wife getting out of a car and his eyes were wide open.
"Mrs. Lu, who are you?"
Mother Lu smiled happily, "My daughter-in-law's family is here to visit relatives. Please help me call our old Mr. Lu."
After hearing this, the guard locked the door and went to call for help.
The smelting workshop of the steel plant is hot and noisy. After the guard went over, he shouted loudly, "Lu Gong! Lu Gong! Your relatives are driving a car to see you!!"
After this shout, everyone's eyes turned to the direction of the guard.
What did they hear?
Someone drove a car to see Lu Gong?
Lu Daming thought about it and guessed that it should be the daughter-in-law's family.
He explained the work in his hands to his apprentice and walked towards the guard.
Upon asking, it turned out to be them.
Lu Daming was wearing a dark blue work suit with holes on some places caused by iron water.
He asked the security guard, "Do you think I need to change my clothes?"
The security guard: ...
Isn't it a bit late for you to ask now?
After asking, Lu Daming also reacted, smiled and stopped talking.
But the security guard was not quiet all the way, "Mr. Lu, I didn't expect your daughter-in-law's family conditions are so good, that car is really impressive, your in-laws look like cultured people, they speak Mandarin, and they look knowledgeable."
Lu Daming, "Of course not."
They are more than knowledgeable, they are very knowledgeable.
The two of them chatted and laughed and soon arrived at the door.
Naturally, there was another round of greetings when the two sides met.
Father Shi invited the other party to get in the car, but Lu Daming looked at his clothes and refused, saying, "You guys drive back first. I was in a hurry to get out, and I haven't changed my clothes yet. I'll dirty the car."
Father Shi, however, pulled Father Lu over without a care, "Brother Lu, it's too polite to say that. Let's get in the car."
Mother Lu saw this and knew that her father-in-law really didn't mind, so she urged, "Old Lu, get in the car quickly, don't dilly-dally."
After being yelled at by his wife, Lu Daming got in the car obediently.
Father Shi and Mother Shi were amused.
When the car drove away, the guard couldn't help but murmur, "Lu Gong's daughter-in-law's family is amazing." When
the car arrived at the workers' family compound, it caused a round of exclamations and onlookers from the neighbors.
Mother Lu felt that the limelight she had gained today was the sum of all the limelight she had gained in her entire life.
She always walked with her head held high when getting out of the car.
The neighbors were just like when they first met her. Whenever they met one of them, they would stop and ask about the identities of Shi's father and mother.
After knowing that the family driving the car was the family of Lu Weiguo's parents-in-law, they couldn't help but feel envious.
What kind of conditions must one have to be able to drive a car?
And the things they were carrying didn't look cheap.
In the end, the conclusion was that Lu's in-laws were really rich.
When they got home, Mother Lu made tea and asked them to warm themselves by the stove. She also took out her treasured canned peaches for them to taste. They
were very enthusiastic.
After they had talked for a while and sent the things away, Shi's father and mother got up and prepared to leave.
Lu's father and mother wanted to stay for dinner, but the Shi family refused.
"It's getting late. If it's any later, we may not be able to find a hotel before dark. We'll get together next time. There's still a lot of time in the future."
Lu's father and mother agreed. Now that the in-laws have been rehabilitated, and the daughter-in-law is pregnant, she will definitely go to Jinling to see them. There's plenty of time to get together, so they didn't force it.
The horsepower of today's cars can't catch up with those of later generations, but they can run as fast as trains.
It's just that they don't drive at night. For safety, they always stay in a hotel before dark.
The car arrived in Jinling two days later.
They did not delay any longer and drove directly to the camp family compound.
Shi Tingyu was painting at home. When she heard that her parents and brother were coming, she was stunned for a long time before she reacted.
She turned around and was
about to run to the door. Her sister-in-law who came to call for help was startled.
Since Teacher Shi resigned, the news of her pregnancy has spread.
After her sister-in-law's reminder, Shi Tingyu calmed down. She thanked the sister-in-law who came to call for help and slowed down.
Seeing that she would not run away again, the sister-in-law went back with peace of mind.
Family reunions are always accompanied by various concerns and tears, causing people coming in and out to look over frequently.
It was Shi Muchan's reminder that made the few people come back to their senses from the atmosphere of crying with joy.
After registering with the guards, Shi Tingyu got into the car with her parents and eldest brother and entered the family yard.
Looking at the beautifully maintained yard, Shi's father and mother were very happy.
Even though it is winter now, there are still many evergreen plants exuding vitality.
The vegetables in the yard are also growing well.
When everyone sat down, Shi's mother hurriedly asked about her daughter's physical condition.
Now Shi Tingyu's belly is only about to be three months, and she is not pregnant yet. From the outside, you can't tell that she is pregnant.
Shi Tingyu's subordinate touched her belly consciously and said with a smile: "Don't worry, mom, this child knows how to feel sorry for others. Others have some reactions, but I don't have any of them."
