Chapter 39 Telling the Truth



Lu Ting brought Su Yan out of the Lu family's old house. They first walked to the bank to withdraw three hundred yuan and then went straight to the department store.

Lu Ting originally planned to withdraw another hundred yuan to buy some clothes and shoes for his wife, and also buy some cooking utensils.

Su Yan took out the red envelope given by her grandfather and opened it. Unexpectedly, there were ten big unity notes inside.

"Lu Ting, your grandfather is very generous! Did your grandfather give money to your eldest sister's wedding?"

"Give me twenty dollars."

"Your grandfather is biased towards boys? But he's quite rich."

Lu Xiangqian has a lot of grandchildren, and giving dozens of dollars to each of them is not a small amount. According to the living standards of that era, he is indeed quite rich.

"Grandpa gave you a hundred yuan because you are the eldest granddaughter-in-law of the Lu family. His pension is higher than mine. Besides, my great-grandfather used to run a grain and oil store, so our family is quite well-off. Otherwise, how do you think my grandfather married my grandmother?"

But no one expected that his grandfather actually married two wives, and both of them were half-sisters.

Even his father didn't know about this, and he didn't know whether he should tell him. Why did his grandfather hide it from his father and keep it hidden for so many years?

Does he want his father to be devotedly filial to his current grandmother?

His father was actually quite nice to his grandmother, but his grandmother knew the truth from the beginning, so why didn't she tell it?

It’s a headache. I don’t know if my dad will be devastated when he finds out about this.

Su Yan didn't expect that even in a year of natural disasters, there were still so many people out shopping. They walked from the first floor to the third floor. Whenever Lu Ting saw his wife looking at something for a few seconds, he would ask her if she wanted to buy it.

"Yan Yan, look, there's some red wool on the shelf. Should we weigh two pounds to take back? I think your fair skin suits red very well."

Knit a sweater? She only knitted a scarf in high school, not a sweater.

The original owner had only knitted gloves, and all her sweaters were knitted for her by her mother.

It seems that there is only one thick sweater and a woolen vest in her closet. It’s time to knit a new one this year, but it seems that she doesn’t need to buy the wool.

There are many beautiful sweaters in the wardrobe of the space villa, but it is not convenient to take them out for the time being. However, there seem to be several boxes of high-end wool in the warehouse in the basement of the villa.

Her good friend does live streaming to sell goods, and she will send her some of the good stuff she has. She uses it if she needs it, and puts it in the warehouse if she doesn’t.

Now, if she needs something in the future, she can go to the warehouse first to check if there is anything she plans to buy.

"Lu Ting, you don't need to buy yarn for now. Your brother is officially home, so let's buy some vegetables today."

"My parents will buy the vegetables."

"Then give your brother a gift to officially welcome him home."

"Then let's buy him a Hero pen and a pound of candy."

"Okay, come and buy whatever you like."

After buying those daily necessities, they went to the place where they bought bicycles and compared bicycles of every brand and model. The prices ranged from one hundred and sixty to two hundred yuan.

Lu Ting finally chose a Phoenix brand bicycle that cost 180 yuan. Su Yan was very happy at first, but when Lu Li tied all the things he bought to the back seat of the bicycle, she began to have a headache.

This forced her to sit on the front bar of the bicycle. It wasn't that she was shy and embarrassed to sit in the front.

But it is at least forty or fifty kilometers from here to the military area, and it takes at least two and a half hours to ride a bicycle.

Su Yan regretted it. She regretted going out shopping with Lu Ting. If she had known earlier, it would have been much better to ride in the car with her parents-in-law!

She sat huddled on the front handlebar of the bicycle for more than two hours, and when she returned to the military compound, she felt like her butt didn't belong to her anymore.

Su Yan stood downstairs and didn't want to move. Lu Ting moved the newly bought pots and pans on the bicycle, as well as the things he bought for his wife, back upstairs. He soon went downstairs and pushed the bicycle to the Lu family residence.

"Hey, the Lu family kid bought a bicycle! How much is it?"

Lu Ting smiled and replied, "One hundred and eighty."

"Why is it so expensive? The Zhang family bought a Forever brand bicycle for just over 160 yuan."

"Mine is a Phoenix brand."

"Let's go, let's come in!" Su Yan now just wanted to go in quickly and sit down and rest for a while.

She was not as interested in bicycles as the Tu people were. They were just a means of transportation.

Lu Ting pushed the bicycle into the yard, and Lu Fengnian came out. "You actually bought a bicycle and rode it all the way back."

"Well, after riding for two and a half hours, Yanyan's legs are numb from sitting."

Su Yan kicked Lu Ting in annoyance. How dare this guy say that?

Lu Fengnian patted the bicycle seat and said, "Just buy it and get it registered when you have time."

"Dad, please lock up your bike in our yard from now on. If you leave it downstairs, it might get damaged by passersby."

Of course, you are not afraid of being stolen. If you park your bike downstairs and someone damages it, no one will know. If you lock it in your own yard, anyone can come and ride it.

"Okay, but you still need to get a lock, to prevent Xiaochen and Xiaoyu from ruining your bike."

Su Yan was a little amused. Aren't bicycles meant to be ridden? How could they be damaged? If a bicycle broke, it could be fixed. A 28-bar bicycle this thick should be very durable.

When the three of them entered the house, they found that Lu Jin was not there. Su Yan went to the backyard and found out that he was helping his mother-in-law in the kitchen. Sure enough, this was his mother-in-law's biological child, and his temperament was just like hers.

"Mom, we're back. Is there any medicine I can help you with?"

"No need, Jin'er said he wanted to cook a meal for everyone."

Looking at her mother-in-law's smiling face, Su Yan was also very happy. It was great that they were finally reunited with their son.

"Sister-in-law, you're back. Mom said you like eating fish. Do you think this grass carp should be braised or stewed? I don't know how to boil fish yet."
