Chapter 31 It’s You!!!
After dinner, Xu Nuo went to the kitchen to wash the dishes.
Lu Chen was sitting on the sofa in the living room reading a book. He had an English dictionary on his hand and would flip through it every now and then to look up a few words.
The books above his head were foreign war documents, all written in English, which gave him a headache.
I have been reading a book for half a year, but the progress is limited.
Xu Nuo came out of the kitchen, and Lu Chen closed the book: "You said you wanted to show me something, what is it?"
"Wait a moment, I'll go upstairs to get it." Xu Nuo went upstairs with brisk steps. After a while, she came down with a basket in her hand.
She put the basket in front of Lu Chen and took out a few small bags like brocade bags from it.
This small package is made of red cellophane and tied with pink cellophane to form a beautiful bow.
There were also a few small packets made of pink cellophane, tied into bows with red cellophane.
You can see that she has very dexterous hands and this thing is made very delicately.
"What's inside?" Lu Chen asked, looking at the bulging brocade bag.
"Wedding candy." Xu Nuo explained, "When I came back from Beijing, Mom brought me a lot of melon seeds, peanuts, and wedding candy. I guess she wanted you to distribute them to your comrades. I didn't have time to sort them out yesterday, so I'll sort them out now that I have time. When you go to work tomorrow, take the wedding candy to share with everyone."
Lu Chen also remembered that his colleagues in the army looked at him today as if they wanted to say something but hesitated. They probably wanted to ask him about his marriage and want some wedding candies.
"Okay." Lu Chen agreed.
"I don't know how many comrades you have to give candies to, so I packed all the candies and stuffed them into your luggage. You can take them with you tomorrow morning." Xu Nuo said.
"Yeah. Thank you for your hard work."
"It's not hard, it's actually quite fun."
"Um."
Lu Chen didn't say much. After throwing out a question, Xu Nuo answered it, then he hummed lightly and said nothing more.
There was no movement in the huge living room, and it fell into silence.
Xu Nuo was still waiting for Lu Chen to say something, but unexpectedly, he didn't say a word and just lowered his head to read.
Xu Nuo: “…”
For the first time, I felt that life might be more fulfilling with a noisy man.
Since Lu Chen had already started reading, Xu Nuo didn't want to disturb him. She personally served Lu Chen a cup of tea and placed it next to him, then turned around and went upstairs.
"You can use the study room at will. If you like any book on the bookshelf, you can take it yourself." Lu Chen's voice came from behind.
Xu Nuo looked back at him, only to see that he still maintained the same posture. She paused and responded softly, "Yeah."
Bang, bang, bang——
There was a knock on the door. Lu Chen put down the book and stood up to open the door.
"Old Liao?" Seeing the person standing at the door was a little beyond Lu Chen's expectation. They saw each other more often on weekdays, and rarely visited each other after returning home. "Why are you here?"
"Not only him, but also us!" Liao Hong pushed her brother aside and emerged from behind him. "What? You don't welcome us?"
"Please come in." Lu Chen dodged and let the person in.
As soon as Liao Hong entered the door, she saw the curtains hanging on the windows, the vase on the table, and the tablecloth on the dining table, which seemed familiar.
"Please sit wherever you want." Lu Chen invited the three of them to the sofa, "I'll go make tea for you."
"Don't bother." Liao Qing hurriedly stopped him, "There's nothing special about our relationship. It's not...I heard that you got married, so we wanted to come and see your sister-in-law."
As soon as he finished speaking, Liao Qing was severely glared at by his wife and sister.
When we left home, we had already agreed that we were here to deliver wedding gifts, so don't mention anything about meeting the new bride.
If they are willing to let you see it, then most likely they can still tolerate it. If they don't want to mention it, then forget it.
Liao Qing had repeatedly told them these words, but now, as soon as he entered the door, he opened his mouth and said he wanted to meet the new bride.
After Liao Qing finished speaking, he realized that he was wrong.
He turned around and slapped his mouth twice: "My mouth... is really stupid."
"Captain Lu, that's not what he meant. He meant that we came here to give him a wedding gift..." Bai Qiu Ning quickly tried to make amends.
Liao Hong nodded repeatedly and quickly pushed the watch she had prepared in front of Lu Chen: "It's a gift for you. But there is one thing I must tell you, otherwise, I will feel uncomfortable."
Lu Chen probably knew what Liao Hong was going to say: "It doesn't matter. It's a new watch after the watch cover is changed!"
Originally he could have refused the gift, but since Liao Hong mentioned the time when the watch was dropped, he had to accept it.
Otherwise, it would seem like he dislikes the gift.
Liao Hong was very happy to see that Lu Chen did not despise her. Looking at the face that she had been thinking about day and night, she was so moved that she wanted to cry.
Seeing his sister looking so worthless, Liao Qing coughed twice and handed over the bag in his hand: "This is a towel blanket. Your sister-in-law prepared it for you when she heard that you were getting married."
In fact, this towel blanket was prepared by Bai Qiu Ning for her sister-in-law Liao Hong, thinking that there would be some drama between her and Lu Chen.
Now it seems that it was just a fantasy.
"Thank you. I'll take it." Lu Chen accepted the towel blanket and the watch. Just as he was about to call Xu Nuo down, he heard Liao Hong complaining.
"It's all that blind woman's fault. If it weren't for her, the watch would never be like this! I don't know from whose family this annoying person came." Whenever Liao Hong thought about it, she felt very angry.
When she scolded Xu Nuo, Lu Chen's eyes fell heavily on her face.
Seeing that something was wrong, Liao Qing hurriedly pretended to clear his throat to remind Liao Hong.
Liao Hong found that Lu Chen was staring at her, and her face suddenly felt hot, so she quickly closed her mouth.
"Well...it's nothing, I'll go back." Seeing that Lu Chen was slow to call his wife out, Liao Qing had already made up his mind.
There is a high probability that Lu Chen’s wife is an ugly one!
He came from the countryside and knew that some girls in the village were ugly, with red and black complexions, and were shy and timid and would become shy when they saw people.
Lu Chen’s young wife might be that kind of person.
"Wait a minute." Lu Chen said, "Since you are here, take some wedding candy back to eat."
"There's also wedding candy..." Liao Qing was quite surprised, "Then you have to eat two pieces."
Lu Chen turned around and shouted upstairs: "Xu Nuo, there are guests at home, send down some wedding candy."
His voice made the three people of Liao family very excited. They stretched their necks to look at the stairs.
The sound of footsteps was heard, and then a girl in a red dress appeared at the stairs. A girl with a high ponytail, a fair complexion and bright eyes walked down step by step.
Her calves were long, thin and shiny white, and her waist was graceful and light, swaying with her steps in an elegant curve that instantly caught everyone's attention.
“Fuck…your little wife is so beautiful…” Liao Qing was stunned when he saw Xu Nuo.
Bai Qiuning and Liao Hong's eyes widened instantly, and they blurted out at the same time: "It's you!!"
