Chapter 126 Don't Hide
"Sister-in-law, what's the matter?" Xu Nuo was very curious when he saw her mysterious expression.
Bai Qiuning glanced at Liao Hong, then pulled Xu Nuo aside and whispered, "Xu Nuo, I think your brother-in-law looks quite energetic, and he looks a bit like your man. Liao Hong's eyes widened when she saw him. I was thinking, Liao Hong is also of marriageable age, can you help to match them up?"
Xu Nuo didn't expect that Bai Qiu Ning would tell her about this. She smiled regretfully: "I do want to, but Lu Cheng already has a girlfriend."
"Ah?" Bai Qiuning's face was full of disappointment. "You have a girlfriend? A female soldier?"
"No. My girlfriend is in Beijing, working as a planning editor in a publishing house. I heard she is a returnee from overseas study, and she is quite pretty. I guess we fell in love at first sight."
"Oh..." Bai Qiu Ning was a little disappointed and could only give up.
Dinner, at the dining table.
Cheng Wanying asked Xu Nuo: "Just now, the wife of Political Commissar Liao took you outside and whispered to you for a long time. What did she say?"
Xu Nuo curled his lips and said, "Her sister-in-law has taken a fancy to Lu Cheng and wants to date him."
Lu Cheng was eating a steamed bun, and when he heard this, he almost choked: "Sister-in-law, I have a partner."
"I know." Xu Nuo said, "I refused."
Cheng Wanying seemed to have discovered a new world: "What? You have a partner? When did you have a partner? How come I didn't know?"
Lu Cheng didn't want to talk about it at the moment, so he made a few excuses: "Mom, we haven't even started yet, so don't ask me. I'll let you know sooner or later. But not now."
Cheng Wanying sighed: "Don't follow your elder brother's example and get married when you are almost 30."
Lu Cheng patted his chest and assured: "Don't worry, I'm earlier than him."
"I hope you keep your word."
As they were talking lively, the phone at home rang. Xu Nuo thought it was Lu Chen who answered the phone, so he put down his chopsticks and went to answer it.
Who knew that the call came from the gate?
"Sister-in-law, there is a man named Lei Ming and another named Yang Dong. They both said they are your relatives."
"Thunder?" Xu Nuo vaguely remembered, "Is he from Jing City?"
"Yes, yes, that's right."
"Let them in."
Xu Nuo hung up the phone and said to Lu Cheng: "Lei Ming and Yang Dong are here. They should be here to see you, right?"
Lu Cheng was stunned: "Damn! These two guys really came over!"
A few days ago, they talked on the phone, and when they heard that he had a broken bone, they both clamored to come over.
He tried to stop them again and again, but failed.
"Why don't these two people stay for two days? They will cause trouble for your sister-in-law again." Cheng Wanying said.
"Mom, don't be so polite. What trouble is it? We are all family. Let's not talk about that."
Xu Nuo went out to meet Lei Ming and Yang Dong, and brought the two back in less than a quarter of an hour.
As soon as Lei Ming entered the room and saw Cheng Wanying sitting at the dining table, he was suddenly stunned.
"Aunt Cheng...Aunt Cheng, why are you here too?"
Yang Dong was also stunned when he saw this: "Oh, Aunt Cheng..."
Seeing the two people's exaggerated expressions, Cheng Wanying couldn't help laughing: "Why? Are you so surprised by my appearance here?"
"No, no." Lei Ming winked at Yang Dong.
Yang Dong quickly handed over a bag of fruit: "Aunt Cheng, I don't know what you eat, so I bought some fruit to honor you."
Cheng Wanying said with a smile: "Is this really for me? I think it's for Lu Cheng?"
Yang Dong chuckled twice: "I really didn't expect you to be here."
"Okay, we're not outsiders." Lu Cheng interrupted, "You haven't eaten yet at this hour, go wash your hands and sit down to eat first."
Lei Ming asked, "Is there enough food in your house for us to eat?"
"Enough, definitely enough!" Cheng Wanying pointed to the bathroom, "That's where you wash your hands."
Lei Ming and Yang Dong washed their hands and sat down, exchanging a few pleasantries at the table.
He probably just asked why Lu Chen was not at home, and how Xu Nuo was spending his honeymoon days.
Xu Nuo discovered that Lei Ming and Yang Dong had been exchanging glances and making eye contact at the dinner table, as if they had something to say but were hesitant.
Lu Cheng obviously noticed it too, and asked them directly: "You two have been flirting with each other, what are you doing? If you have something to say, just say it directly, don't be so secretive."
Lei Ming refused to speak, but kept saying, "We don't have anything to say. We just saw that you were in good spirits despite having a broken bone, so we are happy for you."
Yang Dong also nodded hurriedly: "Yes, yes, that's right, that's what I mean."
"Really nothing to say?" Lu Cheng raised his eyebrows.
"No, really. We just came here to see you and then walk around. Anyway, we are different from you. We don't have jobs and are not bound by any constraints." Lei Ming said.
"Yes, yes, that's what I mean."
"Okay, as long as there's nothing else to do." Lu Cheng snorted and laughed, picked up a piece of duck with chopsticks and threw it into Lei Ming's bowl, "Come on, those who like meat, try this."
Lei Ming picked it up and stuffed his mouth with it. The rich taste gave his taste buds the ultimate enjoyment: "Hmm, it's really good. This is the most delicious thing I have ever eaten. Is it my sister-in-law's cooking?"
Xu Nuo smiled and said, "It counts, and it doesn't count either."
"Come on, eat more. You must be tired and hungry after taking such a long train ride." Cheng Wanying pushed the plate of food towards the two of them. "Just eat this tonight. I'll make delicious food for you two tomorrow."
"Thank you, Aunt Cheng."
After dinner, Xu Nuo arranged accommodation for the two of them.
There are only three bedrooms in this house. The two upstairs are occupied by Cheng Wanying and Xu Nuo respectively, and the downstairs is occupied by Lu Cheng.
Now that there are two more people, they can only merge the rooms and let Cheng Wanying and Xu Nuo sleep together.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were packing bedding when Lei Ming came upstairs and told Xu Nuo that he wanted to share a room with Lu Cheng, even if they had to sleep on the floor.
He and Yang Dong insisted on sleeping like this, and Xu Nuo had no choice but to do as they wished.
At night, Lu Cheng and Yang Dong lay on the bed, while Lei Ming slept on the floor under the bed.
The three of them were lying down and chatting.
Lu Cheng asked, "You two have traveled thousands of miles, not just to see me because I have a broken bone, right?"
"You underestimated us, didn't you?" Yang Dong was still stubborn, "We really came to see you. What do you think? Are we good brothers? I am so touched by your spirit."
Lu Cheng snorted, "Really, Yang Dong, Lei Ming? We played together when we were wearing open-crotch pants and pee mud. Don't we know each other well? Let's put it this way, if you two stick out your butts now, I know what kind of shit you're going to poop."
Yang Dong smiled embarrassedly.
Lei Ming also put away his usual playful smile and said seriously: "Lu Cheng, the brothers are really in trouble. If we were not forced into a desperate situation, we would not have come all the way to find you. Can you help?"
