Lu Mingfang grew up in a honey pot.
It was her first time to come to such a remote county town. She was even surprised when she heard from her father Lu Hechuan that her nephew was going to get engaged to a girl from a production team.
Until now, I still can't quite accept this reality.
"She is in the Licun Production Team." When Lu Jianguo mentioned Li Jinfeng, his eyes softened a lot.
Lu Mingfang saw this scene and became even more curious about Li Jinfeng.
"Your grandfather, my father, told me to get you engaged as soon as possible and bring you back to meet his grandfather. Also, your research institute has already sent people to visit three times. You should also take some time to go back and see what's going on!"
The research institute's affairs are classified as confidential.
Even Lu Jianguo's relatives would not take the initiative to tell him.
But Lu Jianguo knew what was going on.
Before he came, he heard that the research institute was working on a project that involved technology that they had not yet mastered. However, Lu Jianguo had just come across some of it when he was in a foreign laboratory, so the research institute urgently needed him to go back and help with some preliminary data and planning.
"I understand!" Lu Jianguo said indifferently.
Lu Mingfang choked.
Fortunately, I have gotten used to this nephew. He has always been like this and is indifferent to everyone.
It’s hard to imagine how he gets along with his partner.
Could it be that it's the same, that I can't say a single gentle word for a long time?
"By the way, grandpa was afraid that you didn't have enough money and tickets, so he asked me to bring some out for you. He also gave three thousand yuan to that Li... Li something. You can give it to her!" Lu Mingfang said.
As he spoke, he handed the rattan box he had brought from home to Lu Jianguo, "This is all here. Take out three thousand and give it to that person. The rest, you can use as a betrothal gift or give it away. It's up to you!"
Lu Mingfang was very casual, and she wasn't a meticulous person.
She is over 30 years old and has not experienced the ravages of time. Her temperament is still similar to that of a young girl. What she likes to do most is to be a hands-off boss.
If the other people in the Lu family didn't have the time and energy to make this trip, this job would definitely not have been her turn.
Lu Jianguo took the box without hesitation.
He put the box in the room prepared for him by Zhao Mingcheng, and then came out. Feeling that it was about time, he called Lu Mingfang and Zhao Mingcheng's family to go out to dinner together.
Lu Mingfang was still not used to seeing the buildings in Anwu County. They were small and short, much worse than those in Jiangbei Province.
So, unconsciously, a bit of disgust and dislike was revealed.
Lu Jianguo ordered a few dishes and spent a lot of money to buy two kilograms of braised pork and a fish.
Lu Mingfang still felt unsatisfied. The fish was not fresh enough, and the braised pork sauce was too dark in color. It was obvious that it was not cooked well.
"Aunt Jianguo, please eat!" Zhao Mingcheng said politely when he saw Lu Mingfang didn't move her chopsticks for a long time.
Lu Mingfang took another look at the dishes on the table and still didn't like them.
"Mingcheng, Uncle Zhao, Aunt Zhao, you guys eat!"
Lu Jianguo, who had been silent all this time, spoke up. He actually didn't quite agree with his aunt coming over. She couldn't help much and might even end up doing something worse with good intentions.
However, the engagement must be arranged by the elders of the Lu family, otherwise Lu Jianguo can handle the matter alone.
