Chapter 111: Old men are more considerate
"Mom might have to come over and live here for a while." Lu Chen said straight to the point.
"Okay." Xu Nuo naturally agreed, "Is this what you want to discuss with me? No need to discuss it, I welcome you to come over. But can I ask why? Because of Lu Cheng?"
"Mom doesn't know about Lu Cheng yet." Lu Chen said.
Hearing this, Xu Nuo was surprised: "If you don't know about Lu Cheng, why are you here? Could it be that you are here for you and me?"
Xu Nuo knew that her mother-in-law had been paying close attention to the relationship between her and Lu Chen.
The last time I went back, my mother-in-law was urging me to give birth.
Could it be that he came here this time because he saw that she hadn't gotten pregnant yet, so he wanted to come and supervise her?
In an instant, Xu Nuo felt under tremendous pressure.
"No." Lu Chen denied.
"It's okay." Xu Nuo patted his chest, "It's always stressful to have a baby."
Lu Chen's mouth twitched slightly: "Don't worry, if you don't want to give birth, no one can force you."
Xu Nuo also curled his lips: "Old men are more considerate as expected."
Lu Chen raised his hand and tapped her forehead: "You have firmly remembered the three words 'old man' today."
He felt a little regretful.
I shouldn't ask her today if she feels much older than she is.
Xu Nuo rubbed his forehead which was hurt by the bullet: "You got the point wrong. I was praising you for being considerate..."
"Really?" Why didn't he think so.
"Yes."
"Let's get back to the topic." After teasing her for a few words, Lu Chen's heavy mood just now was relieved a little, "Mom came here because of the matter between the second brother and his wife."
"Lu Feng? What happened to them?"
In Xu Nuo's impression, Lu Feng was a man of few words, and he knew how to take good care of Zhang Man at the dinner table. He would always be the first to give Zhang Man any delicious food.
She felt that the couple was quite loving.
"Lu Feng and Zhang Man are getting a divorce." Lu Chen told Xu Nuo what had happened.
A while ago, because of the disturbance caused by Xu Shan's family, Zhang Qiang not only lost his job, but also had to pay a lot of money to Xu Laoer's family.
Life suddenly became a lot tighter.
Zhang Qiang is a lazy person. After his wife had a fight with Xu Shan and had a miscarriage, he stopped working and just stayed at home to recuperate.
The family suddenly lost its financial income.
Zhang Qiang asked Zhang Man to borrow money again and again.
They said they were borrowing money, but in fact they never returned it after borrowing it.
After borrowing money twice, Zhang Man was unwilling to borrow again, and Zhang Qiang told Zhang's parents about this.
Zhang's parents were also patriarchal. They cried, made a fuss, and even threatened to commit suicide to force their daughter to give money to her brother.
Zhang Man emptied all the money in her pocket, so she secretly withdrew half of the savings from her passbook without Zhang Feng's knowledge.
It didn't take long before Zhang Qiang borrowed money from Zhang Man again in the name of doing business.
When Zhang Man refused to lend the money, Zhang's parents tried every possible means to force their daughter to give them the money.
Zhang Man had no choice but to ask her brother Zhang Qiang to sign a document so that she could pay the money back in the future.
What she didn't expect was that someone from Lu Feng's factory went into business, and he became jealous.
After discussing with my friends, we decided to put some money together and run a clothing stall.
When he went to withdraw money, he was told that all the money in the passbook had been withdrawn.
After returning and asking Zhang Man the reason, the two of them started fighting.
Cheng Wanying was afraid that the two people would get upset over money, so she tried her best to dissuade them.
The two people were clamoring for a divorce.
If they really want to divorce, that's fine. Two people say they want to divorce, but when it really comes to divorce, no one is willing to sign.
After going to the Civil Affairs Bureau several times, the two people finally calmed down.
Lu Feng proposed to earn the money back, so Zhang Man borrowed money from Cheng Wanying.
She borrowed one thousand yuan from Cheng Wanying and gave six hundred to Lu Feng, saying that six hundred was borrowed.
The remaining four hundred yuan was taken away by her brother Zhang Qiang.
Lu Feng invested all the borrowed money but it was not enough, so he shamelessly asked Cheng Wanying to borrow money.
After both sides reconciled the accounts, they found out that the amount Zhang Man borrowed was one thousand, not six hundred.
Lu Feng exploded again because of this and insisted on divorcing Zhang Man.
A couple has a small quarrel every three days and a big quarrel every five days.
The core of the quarrel was money.
Cheng Wanying really couldn't stand it anymore, so she decided to go out and find some quiet time.
Coincidentally, the plaster on her leg was removed and she could walk again, so she wanted to escape from this home.
It just so happened that she moved in and was also thinking of bringing Lu Chen and Xu Nuo together.
She didn't know yet that the two of them had already slept together, and that their sexual pleasure was gradually becoming harmonious.
After listening to this, Xu Nuo couldn't help sighing: "Okay, then let mom come over."
"Don't you mind?" Lu Chen asked.
Xu Nuo smiled and said, "I don't mind. Why should I mind? Mom is very good to you and me. I'm happy that she's here. I'm just afraid that... Lu Cheng's affairs will be revealed sooner or later."
"If I can't hide it, then I won't hide it. She is here, and she will feel more at ease after seeing Lu Cheng." Lu Chen said.
"Okay! When will mom come over? Have you bought the tickets?"
"The train tomorrow night will arrive early the day after tomorrow."
"Okay, I'll take some time off to pick her up then."
"That's not necessary. I'll let Xiao Wei pick it up. Just focus on your work."
"I'll do whatever you say."
For dinner, Xu Nuo cooked a little casually. Thinking about the braised duck for dinner in the evening, neither of them ate too much.
At about nine o'clock in the evening, Xu Nuo took out half of the braised duck.
She directly pulled off a duck leg and handed it to Lu Chen: "Here, try it. Does it suit your taste?"
Lu Chen likes spicy food, and when he took a bite, his taste buds fully felt the spiciness.
It's spicy but fragrant, numbing, and slightly sweet.
The taste is very rich.
Lu Chen's eyebrows relaxed: "It tastes really good! Even better than that spicy hot pot. Nuonuo, you said your cooking is average, maybe you are just being modest."
"I can basically cook anything I like to eat." Xu Nuo also picked up a piece of duck gizzard and put it into his mouth.
She sighed with satisfaction: "Mm, this is the taste, not bad!"
“You stewed two pots?”
"right."
Lu Chen asked her: "Can you bring some for Wu Yue to try?"
Wu Yue is his brother who has been through thick and thin with him, and he also loves spicy food.
"No problem." Xu Nuo said, "I have a lot of stewed meat, so I can bring more for him. Oh, and bring more tomorrow for Brigade Commander Lu to try."
The corner of Lu Chen's mouth curled up - Xu Nuo was making plans for him.
"good."
"I have to share the rest too. Sister Zhang Juan is very nice to me, I will give some to her later, and also give some to Political Commissar Liao's family. Sister Qiu Ning is also very nice to us, and there is also Liao Hong, who is probably waiting to eat now. I will give some to them. Oh, and Jin Yue, my colleagues should also take some..."
Xu Nuo counted on his fingers for a long time and finally figured out where to send the ducks.
After she figured it out, she took out two lunch boxes from home and went to the kitchen to start packing the braised duck.
Lu Chen stood at the kitchen door and looked at her. Suddenly, he felt that the scene of his parents getting along with each other that he had imagined countless times did not appear in his parents' lives, but appeared in his life instead.
It’s actually quite good to have a woman at home. It makes the home more homely and no longer as cold as before.
Xu Nuo packed two lunch boxes with duck goods and left home.
The two houses were very close, and it only took two steps to reach the Liao family's door.
She raised her hand and knocked on the door, and soon Bai Qiu Ning came out to open the door.
Seeing Xu Nuo standing at the door with a lunch box in his hand, she hurriedly invited Xu Nuo in: "I've heard about Liao Hong, that greedy girl."
"Sister-in-law, this tastes pretty good, take it back and try it. Liao Hong helped me get my wallet back today, and I don't know how to thank her, so I can only give her something to eat."
"Come in and sit for a while."
Xu Nuo refused to go in, but couldn't stand Bai Qiuning's enthusiasm, so he grabbed her arm and dragged her into the house.
Liao Hong was originally listening to her brother Liao Qing's lecture with her head down, but when she saw Xu Nuo coming over, she jumped three feet high with joy.
"Did you bring the duck?"
"I brought it." Xu Nuo placed the lunch box in front of her, "Two boxes, you and Brother Liao and his wife can have a taste."
Liao Hong couldn't help it when she smelled the food, so she opened a lunch box, reached out, picked up a piece of meat and put it in her mouth.
The moment she put it in her mouth, her eyes lit up: "Delicious! Delicious, delicious! It's so delicious. I've never eaten duck meat so delicious!"
Liao Qing looked at his sister's useless appearance and couldn't help but tease her: "All you do is eat. You can't do any job well and you never leave anything left after eating."
"Why talk about work when we are eating! Try it, it's delicious. If you don't eat it, I will eat it all." Liao Hong said while not forgetting to eat.
She hissed and shouted, "It's so enjoyable."
Liao Qing and Bai Qiu Ning thought the smell was particularly pleasant. Seeing that Liao Hong, who was usually picky, was eating so happily, they also reached out their hands.
Liao Qing ate a duck intestine and Bai Qiu Ning ate a duck gizzard, and they both praised the food non-stop after eating.
"Oh, your cooking skills are amazing! Xu Nuo, your food tastes much better than those sold in the market."
Suddenly, an idea popped into Bai Qiuning's head: "I have a good idea, do you want to hear it?"
