Chapter 445: Being Yourself Is the Most Important
"Then let Jingyou visit her home more often and ask her family for their opinions." Old Master Lu glanced at Lin Manli and Lu Jiahe. "If necessary, you should go visit first and arrange a meeting between our two parents as soon as possible."
The man should take the initiative in this matter.
Every family wants to marry a daughter-in-law early, and every family wants to keep their daughter for two more years, so they have to sit down and discuss it properly.
"Dad, Xiao Su's hometown is Qingyuan. You can't just ask us to go there, right?" Lin Manli deliberately emphasized the word "Qingyuan". She turned her head to look at Lu Jiahe and saw that he was actually playing with the boxwood gourd. She couldn't help but glare at him and continued, "Xiao Su has a house in Jinyuan anyway, so her family can't not come. Let's talk about it when they come!"
"That's right. The main thing is that we wouldn't know what to say if we went there." Lu Jiahe caught Lin Manli's gaze and immediately put the gourd down. He sat up straight and said seriously, "Don't worry. It won't be too late after Xiao Su graduates."
"Waiting until she graduates to do these things would be too hasty. It would show that we lack sincerity." Old Master Lu shook his head and added, "There is no rain without clouds in the sky, and no marriage without a matchmaker. I don't need you anymore. I'll ask Song Xiangyun to be the matchmaker and let her do this."
"Dad, they're dating on their own, why do they need a matchmaker?" Lin Manli was surprised. "Even if you're looking for Aunt Song, you can't let her go to Qingyuan, right?"
The old couple are just too idle.
They even need to find a matchmaker... She was speechless.
"That's right, Dad. Just let Jingyou handle these matters." Lu Jiahe found it unbelievable when he heard about finding a matchmaker. He suspected that the old man was confused.
"Could you please keep your voice down?" Old Master Lu's face darkened. "Do you want the little girl to hear me? I don't need your permission to do anything!"
Lu Jiahe shut up tactfully.
No matter who he offended, he was scolded... Is it a matter of the volume of the voice?
Lin Manli fell silent.
Lu Jingyou said nothing, got up and went into Mrs. Lu's room to find Su Jiaojiao.
Old Mrs. Lu was chatting animatedly with Su Jiaojiao: "I'm going to live in Jinyuan. First, the renovations at home are too noisy, and second, I want to meet you in advance. You won't blame Grandma for hiding her identity to get close to you, right?"
"No." Su Jiaojiao said frankly, "I'm very touched. Grandma is also kind-hearted."
Having said that, she still cares about it.
The feeling of being scrutinized or even tested without her knowledge is something that no one would feel comfortable with.
But the old lady meant no harm, and there was no need for her to take it to heart.
"That's good." Old Mrs. Lu held Su Jiaojiao's hand affectionately, looking at her over and over again, becoming more and more satisfied. "I'm very happy that you came today. From now on, grandma can visit you often."
The little girl still had no makeup on and didn't dress up deliberately.
She is also dressed elegantly, with a pink top and gray wide-leg pants, still looking fresh and clean.
"Grandma, I should be the one coming to see you." Su Jiaojiao's good impression of Mrs. Lu was entirely based on her impression of the old lady on the first floor.
Mrs. Lu's room was simply and cleanly furnished. There was a kang by the window, a row of small mahogany boxes beside the kang, and then there was the set of goose yellow sofas at the entrance.
The sofa set in the living room is dark gray, and is also matched with this light yellow backrest. The two sets of sofas should have been purchased together.
It can be seen that the old lady likes bright colors.
"Okay, then it's settled. Come at least once a week." Mrs. Lu smiled and said, "If Jingyou does anything wrong, tell grandma and I'll scold him."
Su Jiaojiao smiled but said nothing.
When it's good, it's really good; when it's bad, it's really bad.
"Grandma, what did I do wrong? Why are you scolding me?" Lu Jingyou pushed the door open and walked in, sitting down next to Su Jiaojiao with a cheerful face. "You can't dislike your grandson just because you have a granddaughter-in-law."
"I said if you dare to bully Jiao Jiao, I will scold you."
"What if she bullies me?"
"Nonsense, she won't bully you!" Old Mrs. Lu looked at the two of them with relief and said to Lu Jingyou, "You should work harder and marry your wife back soon."
"Okay, I'll keep working on it." Lu Jingyou knew Su Jiaojiao didn't want to talk about this topic, so he pulled her up and said, "Grandma, it's time for your lunch break. I'll take Jiaojiao to my room to rest for a while."
"We just exchanged a few words, and you came over to snatch her away." Mrs. Lu said with a smile, "That's fine, Jiaojiao is tired too, go!"
"Grandma, I have to go back. I'll come see you another day." Su Jiaojiao looked at the watch. It was almost two o'clock.
"Didn't we agree to stay here tonight?" Mrs. Lu tried her best to persuade her, "You'll be alone if you go back, so why don't you stay and keep Grandma company."
"Grandma, Jiaojiao wants to go over to the company. Something happened yesterday, and she's been worried." Lu Jingyou understood and immediately stepped forward to help. "I'll bring her over when I'm free. There's a lot of time to talk."
Only then did Mrs. Lu agree: "Remember to come often in the future."
Only after getting in the car did Su Jiaojiao feel completely relieved.
Lu Jingyou coughed lightly and said with a smile, "My grandma and the others are still standing at the door. Just hold on for another minute. Once you're out of the alley, you can relax completely."
"Why don't you leave quickly..." Su Jiaojiao looked back and saw that Mrs. Lu and Lin Manli were still watching them at the door. Then she thought, they couldn't see into the car at all.
After the car drove away from the old house, Lu Jingyou asked her: "How do you feel? Are the people in our family very nice?"
"Okay." Su Jiaojiao answered. His grandparents were enthusiastic, but his mother was lukewarm and still the same. His father was happy outside, but like a tool at home.
But she could see that Mr. Lu was the backbone of their family. He seemed easy-going, but was actually very strong. Lu Jiahe had to restrain herself in front of him.
It's not like she hasn't seen what Lu Jiahe looks like outside.
But these things have little to do with her.
She just needs to be herself.
"Don't worry about my mother. She welcomes you, she's just not good at expressing herself." Seeing her perfunctory answer, Lu Jingyou smiled and said, "It will be fine once you get to know her. Even if I'm in the suburbs of Beijing, come over when you're free. My grandma likes you very much."
The meeting was a success.
The old lady even took out a green jade necklace, showing her sincerity.
"If you don't come back, I won't go to your house." Su Jiaojiao made it clear to him first, "No matter how good your grandma is to me, she is still your grandma."
People must always put themselves in the right place.
Old Mrs. Lu didn't like her because she was nice, but because of her feelings for Lu Jingyou.
If she wasn't Lu Jingyou's girlfriend, Mrs. Lu probably wouldn't even look at her.
But Lin Manli didn't like her because she thought she was not good enough and not worthy of Lu Jingyou.
Although the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law have different attitudes, their essence is the same.
They are all for Lu Jingyou.
