Chapter 125 Arranging the Future
Tang Mei's semi-long black hair was pinned into a small bun at the back of her head with a small wooden hairpin.
Her temperament looks gentle and decent, and it can be seen that she is not a strong woman.
Lu Miao doesn't look like Lu Yuanzheng. Based on Tang Mei's appearance, she should look more like her mother.
Sometimes it’s really amazing when you think about it.
The same name, the same appearance, even if it is a different time and space, I still can't help but wonder if there is some intricate connection between them.
But no matter what he thought, Lu Miao turned his gaze back to Tang Mei.
This seemingly weak and innocent woman has dedicated her best years, and perhaps the rest of her life, to her sister's child.
Lu Miao could feel the tenderness and love that she poured out from her original body from the bottom of his heart.
Lu Miao smiled lightly and hugged Tang Mei sincerely:
"Aunt, I'm back."
"well!"
Tang Mei burst into tears, hugged Lu Miao and looked around.
Perhaps because she didn't see any signs of hardship on Lu Miao, she burst into laughter, wiped her tears, took Lu Miao's hand, and invited Lu Yuanzheng to walk into the house together.
"Let's not talk about anything else. It's lunchtime now. Auntie has already prepared the meal. You can eat first and then have a good rest. We can talk about anything else after you've rested!"
Tang Mei was tactful and skillful. She asked Lu Miao to sit down at the table in the main room. She turned around and took the box from Lu Yuanzheng's hand and put it back to Lu Miao's room.
He came out in a flash and went to the kitchen to bring the food.
Stir-fried pork with beans, mutton offal soup, pan-fried spareribs, and staple foods include crispy pancakes and rice.
Even if Lu Yuanzheng had a good job and a high income, given the times, resources were scarce and these things were not easy to get.
It doesn't take much thought to know how much effort went into preparing these meals specially made for her...
Lu Miao lowered his brows slightly, and his eyes moved as he saw everything.
When Lu Miao was not at home, the food was usually spread out in front of Lu Yuanzheng.
Now that Lu Miao has returned home, Tang Mei opens the dishes one by one in front of her:
"These are all our little treasure's favorites."
Tang Mei sat beside him and tucked Lu Miao's hair behind his ear. "Eat quickly, little treasure."
The happy and expectant look in his eyes made Lu Miao's eyes inexplicably hot.
"I understand, auntie, you eat too."
Lu Miao turned around and smiled at Lu Yuanzheng, "Dad, you eat too."
"Why!"
Just as Tang Mei said, just eat well and talk about it later if there is anything else.
The meal was full of warmth and affection, and indeed not much was said during the meal.
After dinner, Lu Miao followed his memory back to his original room.
The furnishings in the room were pretty much the same as I remembered, and everything was clean, obviously someone was cleaning it all the time.
Lu Miao was very tired, but she couldn't stand not having showered or washed up for two days.
I was packing my clothes and planning to wash up when there was a knock on the door.
Across the door, Tang Mei said:
"Xiaobao, I've brought hot water to the bathroom for you. Take your clothes and wash them yourself with cold water."
Lu Miao paused and quickly responded:
"Oh! Got it, I'll be there in a minute."
The Lu family courtyard has four courtyards, but it is not a true quadrangle courtyard. Instead, it is a two-story courtyard rebuilt based on the reference layout.
On the left and right sides of the courtyard are the kitchen and coal room respectively.
Opposite the courtyard gate is the main house hall.
Lu Miao's room is right next to the hall, while Tang Mei's room is around the corner to the right of the hall.
Lu Yuanzheng's room and study are on the second floor. He usually hangs out on the second floor when he comes back, but he lives in school most of the time.
The toilet, also known as the restroom, is in the corner under the stairs.
It may be considered backward in this era, but there are still bucket heads and flush toilets, but the style is more retro.
Tang Mei had already placed the bathtub, soap and other items in the bathroom. A large bucket of hot water was placed next to it. If you wanted to take a shower, you could use the faucet under the mirror on one side to get cold water.
Lu Miao originally thought that she would not use these bathtubs or anything like that, but in fact, she seemed to have a psychological premonition and did not resist much.
After taking a very refreshing bath, Lu Miao felt at least two pounds lighter.
She squeezed the water out of her hair and fumbled to put on her clothes. Tang Mei seemed to have heard the noise outside and said through the door:
"Xiaobao, just put your clothes there. Auntie will come to wash them. After you finish your bath, go back to your room and rest. Okay."
Lu Miao pursed his lips, "...I understand, aunt."
The hair was very long and did not dry quickly, so Lu Miao went back to the room to dry his hair. Later, because he was so sleepy, he fell asleep on the bed with half-dry hair.
In the middle of the process, Tang Mei pushed the door open and came in, adjusted her position, put a dry towel on her pillow again, and sat by the bed, watching her for a long time before leaving.
Lu Miao was half asleep and half awake, unable to move. He couldn't tell whether it was a dream or reality. Only after Tang Mei left, his pair of slender and beautiful eyebrows unconsciously frowned.
She was very envious and fortunate that her original body had someone who loved her so much, but at the same time she felt extremely guilty.
Tang Mei's love is for her original self.
But Tang Mei didn't know that she was not the child she loved.
…
Lu Miao had something on his mind and was having a lot of messy dreams. He slept from noon to dinner time. He didn't sleep well and still felt tired when he woke up.
There was more talking during dinner than at noon.
Lu Yuanzheng threw out words like school and workers and asked Lu Miao if he had any ideas.
Tang Mei guessed that he was planning a future for Lu Miao, so she nodded at the table and insisted on her opinion for the first time at the dinner table:
"Xiaobao just came back and hasn't had enough rest yet. Why are you saying all this? Let her rest for a few days and recuperate."
Lu Yuanzheng smiled and nodded: "I just asked, I didn't say to arrange it immediately."
After saying that, he looked at Lu Miao, his resolute face showing a gentle and loving expression. "Xiaobao, what do you think?"
What ideas could Lu Miao have?
Is it okay if I don’t want to do anything and just stay at home and be a little lady?
Realistically speaking, of course it’s not possible.
Forget about being a laborer or a worker, she definitely can't stand it.
Considering the present and the future, going to school is the best choice.
However, Lu Miao swallowed the food and said slowly:
"Dad, I haven't thought about it yet. Let me think about it for the next two days."
It’s not that I haven’t thought about it, but that I’m not ready yet.
Having just returned from the countryside, she still needs some time to adapt and prepare herself mentally.
"Okay, take a few days off first, and then tell Dad if you have any ideas."
Fortunately, Lu Yuanzheng was reasonable and did not force her to give an answer. Instead, he smiled and changed the subject:
"There's an autumn sports meet at my dad's school in a few days. If you don't have anything important to do, you can go over there. Most of the people there are young people with a good cultural background. You can make some friends and chat with them."
"good."
Lu Miao nodded in response, and his slender brows unconsciously frowned when he lowered his head.
