Lu Fengnian peeled one for Hua Min and put it in her hand. "Xiao Min, try the tangerines your eldest son bought for us. Aren't they very sweet?"
Hua Min took the tangerine and put a slice into her mouth. "Hmm, this tangerine is very sweet. If it were in ancient times, it would definitely be a tribute tangerine."
"I happen to be going out tomorrow, and I'll give some tangerines to my father-in-law and my daughter."
"Dad, when you go to grandpa's house, remember to bring back the cradle, stroller, cotton-padded clothes, and quilt for us."
Hua Min asked Lu Ting, "Did you ask your grandfather to help you make the quilt? I asked a cotton craftsman to make two quilts."
"I took the cotton and asked Grandpa to help make it. If you make two more quilts, how will we use them all?"
"Then I'll leave one bed at home. Xiao Jin is already 20 years old, so it's time for her to look for a partner."
When it came to finding a partner for his son, Lu Fengnian mentioned several female names and asked Hua Min which one to choose. Hua Min said she wanted to hear her son's opinion.
Lu Jin just happened to come in with a bowl of duck. When he heard that his parents were looking for a partner for him, he was so scared that his hands almost shook.
When all the food was served, Lu Fengnian looked at the delicious dishes and kept praising Lu Jin for his ability.
"Whoever marries our Jin'er will be blessed."
Lu Ting smiled and said, "Dad, I've cooked so many meals for you, why don't you praise me?"
"You kid, do you still want to brag? It's your blessing to marry Xiaoyan. With your personality, if Xiaoyan didn't want you, you probably wouldn't get married until you were thirty."
Would he? In the past, he had worked hard to build a career and climb the social ladder, and he had never thought about getting married so early.
Now he feels lucky that he got married last year. A bachelor can never experience the happiness of having a wife.
The only consequence is that he can't be with his wife every day. When she is not at home, he misses her so much that his body aches. He will ask his wife to help him tonight.
"Xiao Jin, you're going out with Dad tomorrow. You're visiting Uncle Lu's house. It seems their daughter, Lu Qiaoling, has been admitted to university. However, she didn't go to a military academy, but to a normal university to become a teacher."
When Su Yan heard that someone could become a teacher after graduating from a normal university, she immediately became nervous. She knew that the profession of teacher was a noble one, but teachers had suffered greatly during the Great Movement.
No matter how good or bad that person is, or whether he has a good family background or not, she cannot let her father-in-law introduce a future teacher to Lu Jin.
The times are like this. She cannot change history, but she can change the fate of her family.
They had already offended their superiors because of the college entrance examination. If they caught anything wrong with their family, they would all be finished.
"Dad, I think we should find someone for my brother-in-law in the military compound. You said that girl is a college student and she's not in the same school as my brother-in-law. What if she's already dating someone at school?"
Lu Jin smiled at Su Yan and said, "Dad, my sister-in-law is right. When looking for a partner, it's better to find someone you know well. There's someone in our dormitory who already has a partner back home, and after getting into university, she said she was single in order to find a new partner."
"Principal Chen seemed to have said that you guys can't date in school, right? It seems Principal Chen has a daughter in high school who'll be eighteen after the Chinese New Year. He even joked about introducing his daughter to you last time."
"Dad, the lesbian you're talking about is called Chen Ting, right? She has big eyes and a round face."
He and his sister-in-law didn't come home for the past two weeks. He met a girl at school who called him Brother Lu Jin and told him that her name was Chen Ting and she was the principal's daughter.
Lu Ting grinned and asked, "Why did she take the initiative to look for you?"
Lu Jin answered honestly, "I saw him twice, Saturday and Sunday."
"Do you want to get in touch?"
"Dad, you said she's not even eighteen yet, and I'm not very familiar with her, but I feel like she's a bit silly and doesn't look very smart."
Su Yan wanted to laugh. Her brother-in-law was always a quiet man, but he actually complained about female comrades and called them silly. What did Chen Ting do to make him misunderstand her?
"I've seen that girl. There's nothing wrong with her IQ, right?"
Lu Fengnian thought that Chen Ting would be 18 after the Chinese New Year, so he only needed to wait another half year to file a marriage application. If his son liked her, the two families could get engaged during the winter vacation.
"Dad, one time she came to talk to me, and while we were talking she walked into the men's room with me. Another time she bumped into a tree and kept apologizing to me."
Su Yan was guessing what kind of personality Chen Ting was. She might be a little silly and a little careless, but she had never seen her before. She would only know what kind of person she was after meeting her.
Anyway, she has to spend the next twenty days in school, maybe they will meet on Saturday or Sunday?
"I think she's quite polite and seems very blessed. Jin'er, you can choose not to come next weekend and get to know her.
Your school's rules prohibit dating on campus, and since she's not from your school, it doesn't affect her."
The reason why the school does not allow students to date on campus is because they are afraid that they will visit other students' dormitories and have sex, which will affect their studies.
"Dad, that girl might just be curious about me, but if you really like her, I can try to get in touch with her. I also know that after the New Year I will be twenty-one, and it's time to find a partner."
When they heard Lu Jin agreed, Lu Fengnian and Hua Min were so happy that they each had an extra bowl of rice in the evening. Fortunately, Lu Yu had cooked a big pot of rice in advance.
Su Yan couldn't understand Lu Jin. Could this guy be the introverted and reserved type? On the surface, he looked gentle and reasonable, but in fact, he was a little bit scheming and a bit coquettish.
Seeing his wife staring at his brother, Lu Ting felt a little jealous. He put a piece of pig liver into Su Yan's bowl with chopsticks and said, "Wife, eat more pig liver to replenish your blood."
"Thanks."
After dinner, Lu Ting stayed at home to wash the dishes, while Lu Fengnian and his two sons found a way to carry the two bags of tangerines back.
After cleaning up, Su Yan took Lu Ting into the space and took out the salted cabbages one by one to wash them.
After washing the Chinese cabbage, place them one by one in a dustpan to drain the water. Mix the spicy sauce and other ingredients for the kimchi and prepare them tomorrow morning.
"Yan Yan, can we finish the thirty cabbages we prepared?"
"I'm worried that thirty kimchis won't be enough to eat by then, but if that's not enough, we can make more later."
"I'll get up early tomorrow morning and prepare the hot sauce for you. Now let's take a shower and go to bed!"
Su Yan knew that Lu Ting must be holding it in so badly that she carried her upstairs to the bathroom without waiting for her answer.
The two of them stayed in the bathroom for half an hour, then Lu Ting carried Su Yan back to the room and continued.
After finishing, Su Yan suddenly felt a slight pain in her stomach. She didn’t know what was going on. Could it be because she had moved too hard just now?
