Lu Yiming turned around and asked Lu Yining, "What about you?"
"I want to study law."
"Our school's law program is also famous. Would you like to try applying to our school?"
"Brother, you're amazing. Last month, our country held its first TOEFL exam. There were two or three hundred candidates. I signed up and took it, and my test scores were pretty good. But I have to pay for my own study abroad."
"Don't worry about studying abroad. Mom has money. And with me here, you don't have to worry about living expenses."
"Brother, you and I are both abroad, so only my second brother and my younger sister are left at home."
Lu Yiming then asked Lu Yian, "After you finish college, do you want to come to our school for graduate studies?"
“Brother, we can also study for a master’s degree in college. I don’t plan to study abroad for the time being.”
Lu Yiming smiled, feeling that his younger brother was more mature than himself and actually wanted to go into politics.
"Okay, you should develop well in China. Maybe the third brother and I will need your help in the future."
Lu Yian felt that the burden on his shoulders was a bit heavy. His eldest brother studied finance only wanting to make money, his younger brother wanted to be a Supreme Court Justice, and his youngest sister wanted to be a female pilot.
If he wanted the Lu family to develop better, he had to work hard to climb to a higher position. That way, his mother wouldn't have to work so hard and wander around for money.
"Brother, this topic is too heavy. Let's talk about something else. You will be twenty next year. When will you bring us a sister-in-law?"
"Are you kidding me? Twenty years old is still very young, okay? If you want to find a partner, wait until I graduate and get a job. I can't possibly find a partner and ask my parents to support our entire family, right?"
"Brother, how many years will it take for you to graduate?"
"An An, they say a man should be able to establish himself at the age of 30. It's not bad for a man to get married and start a family at the age of 30. It's really too early to be dating at the age of 20. I feel like I'm not even grown up yet, and I have to support a wife and children. This is not good."
After Lu Yiming finished speaking, he looked at Lu Yian with a strange expression, "You kid, you are not dating, are you? I tell you, you are still young, you must not make any mistakes!"
Lu Yirou laughed heartily. "Second brother, you're not really dating, are you? I heard that many college students are secretly dating. Second brother, those female classmates should be older than you. You wouldn't like older sisters, would you?"
Lu Yian frowned and looked at Lu Yiru speechlessly, "Do I look like a love-crazy person? Even if some female classmates wrote me love letters, I didn't take them seriously?
My eldest brother said that a man should be independent at the age of 30. I also plan to wait until I have a job before looking for a partner. Then I can find someone who shares the same ideals as me.
"Then I'll find someone who's like a brother to me."
Lu Yining asked, "You have three brothers. Which brother do you want to find a boy like?"
"A boy who has all the advantages of you. First, she is at least a head taller than me. I only need to reach her shoulders.
Second, he must have a good-looking face and a good figure. I don’t like the kind of person who gets out of breath after running a thousand meters.
Third, he can’t live off his wife. It doesn’t matter if his family is poor, he must be ambitious…”
Lu Yirou chattered on and on, and Lu Yining laughed and retorted, "You won't find a partner if you're so picky. When looking for a partner, first impression is important, and then getting along well with them is second. Most importantly, they have to have positive values and treat you well."
Lu Yian agreed, "Ningning is right. The most important thing is to find someone who is kind-hearted and treats you well."
Their family will get better and better. Their younger sister is so beautiful that she will easily be targeted by others. As her brothers, they must keep a close eye on her and not let her be deceived by bad men.
Lu Yiming said seriously, "Sister, I didn't ask you to get married at the age of 30. You girls should at least wait until you are 20 before you can date.
We don't object to free love, but you must let your family vet your partner. Although my family doesn't place a high value on family background, there's a saying about marrying someone of equal status. If the disparity in status between the two families is too great, the weaker one will undoubtedly find life very stressful.
If his sister were to find a rural boy who had only received a few years of education, the family would have to borrow money for the betrothal gift. Not only would his parents disagree, but his brothers would certainly not agree either.
My sister is a little princess at home. After she gets married, is it unrealistic to ask her to go back to the countryside to farm with that gay man?
Lu Yiming hopes that his younger sister will get married and her brother-in-law will still treat her like a little princess. It doesn’t matter if the family background is slightly worse than theirs, but it can’t be too much worse.
As soon as Lu Ting came back, he saw the children talking about marriage. Did his eldest son come back with a girlfriend?
"Dad is back." Lu Yiming suddenly stood up and looked at Lu Ting with a smile.
"Yiming, when did you return home? Why didn't you write home in advance so I could pick you up?"
"I came back today. Did Dad just get off work?"
"Well, where's your mom?"
"I'm going to the kitchen to make something delicious for my brother." Lu Yining interjected.
Lu Ting wanted to go to the kitchen to see if he needed help, but then he remembered that his eldest son had just returned and decided not to. There were so many people in the kitchen and they were doing a good job without him.
Lu Ting put down his briefcase, sat down on the sofa, and took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket. Lu Yiming took out an exquisite Zippo lighter from his pocket.
"Dad, this is a gift from me to you. It's a lighter. Try it."
Lu Ting put the matches back in his pocket and looked at Lu Yiming with a smile, "You kid still remembers to give gifts. This looks very nice."
"Yeah, it's pretty good. This lighter cost me several hundred dollars."
Lu Ting's hands trembled with fear. How could this spendthrift guy buy him such an expensive lighter?
He quickly put the lighter down and took out a match from his pocket to light it. Lu Yiming was puzzled, "Dad, why don't you use the new lighter I bought you?"
"How dare I use such an expensive lighter? Leave it here for now. I'll come out and light a cigarette if needed."
Lu Yining chuckled, "Dad, you are so funny, no matter how expensive this is, it is only about 500 yuan, not even as expensive as my sister's TUTU skirt.
Don't worry about using this gift from my elder brother. When I make money in the future, I will buy you ten."
"You kid only know how to make your dad happy. Okay, I'll use this lighter during the New Year, so put it away now."
Lu Ting knew his family was wealthy, so no matter how extravagant he was, he couldn't afford to use such an expensive lighter. Matches were only a few cents a box, yet this one cost hundreds. He didn't know how to refill it if it ran out of gas. He'd better put it aside and use it when needed.
"Dad, I made my first fortune this year, over a hundred thousand. Feel free to use the lighter. When I make a lot of money in the future, I'll buy you anything you want."
Lu Ting flicked the cigarette in his hand and said with a smile, "You are quite capable, thank you for your gift. I will put it to good use."
