Chapter 1273: Something Happened in Beijing
"I'm sorry to you three...his father, wait until I die, then find another one."
Zhao Lanxiang lay straight on the bed, choking with tears and saying:
"Live a good life and raise the child well. If that girl doesn't want to come back, then she can just stay. She's not wrong, and I don't blame her."
"Her uncle and aunt have already arranged a way out for her. She'll be fine in the future. Don't go looking for her... With a mother like me who's clueless, she's born to suffer more than others. Don't stand in her way..."
Zhao Lanxiang spoke a lot in a halting manner.
Brother He sat beside her, sobbing uncontrollably, and told a lame lie to comfort her:
"Don't overthink it... The doctor said, just keep a positive attitude. This disease can be cured. It will heal on its own slowly!"
Zhao Lanxiang smiled and did not expose Brother He.
After a brief silence in the room, Zhao Lanxiang asked:
"Where's my workbox?"
Brother He stood up while sniffing:
"I'll find it for you..."
…
Lu Miao actually missed his child because he hadn't seen him for a long time.
In terms of months, summer vacation in northern Beijing starts earlier this year than in previous years.
As time passed into June, Lu Miao had already started counting the days on his fingers.
By the end of the month, when Fu Jingyou was really about to take some time off to make a phone call to arrange this matter, news came from the village first.
Hu Zhiyuan, who usually comes here by bicycle, drove here this time.
Lu Miao heard the sound of a car horn from afar and came out to stand in front of the door looking out.
Soon, we saw Hu Zhiyuan rushing towards us on the road facing the pond not far away, holding a large box in one hand and making a left and right move.
Behind him, there were two figures, one tall and one short.
Lu Miao has good eyesight.
When she saw who the two figures were, tears welled up in her eyes and she took a step forward and ran down the ramp in front of the door.
She usually has to pant after walking a few steps, let alone running.
Fu Jingyou saw this from inside the door and was startled:
“Miaomiao!”
By the time he followed her out the door, Lu Miao had already squatted down and hugged the firm little ball.
"Mom, I miss you so much!"
Baichuan was nestling in his mother's arms and acting like a spoiled child. When he heard his father's voice, the impish boy grinned and immediately stuck his head out and shouted:
"dad!"
Fu Jingyou was stunned for a moment, then quickly stepped forward, picked up his son, and helped his wife up:
"dad."
We were discussing bringing the child back home a few days ago, so now we can finally save some trouble.
The father-in-law sent the child directly to him.
Yes, the people following Hu Zhiyuan were Lu Yuanzheng and Bai Chuan.
Lu Miao also shouted: "Dad."
"Um."
Lu Yuanzheng nodded slightly.
The family briefly met on the way, and Hu Zhiyuan smiled and said:
"Haha, Uncle, Brother Xiao Fu, sister! The sun is high outside and it's scorching hot. Let's stop talking here and go home quickly! Uncle must be tired from bringing the kids here!"
Lu Miao wiped away the tears of excitement and longing, nodded quickly, and walked in front with Bai Chuan in his hand.
The mother and son chatted as they walked:
"Mom and Dad were planning to have Uncle Chen bring you back, but you got here first."
"I can't wait, Mom! I've been on vacation for days!"
"Little rascal!"
"Hehe~"
…
One of the reasons why Lu Yuanzheng personally brought the child here was that Baichuan was making a lot of trouble at home.
Second, there is another thing.
Third...
Although he didn't say it, he was actually worried about his daughter.
So when he sat down at the Fu family, he saw that although Lu Miao was still pale and thin, his complexion and physique were obviously much better than before in Jingbei.
When he saw the not-bad food on the table, his brows, which had been tense all the way, finally relaxed.
It was at this moment that my anxious heart finally settled down.
Lu Yuanzheng calmly withdrew his gaze, smiled, raised his wine cup and clinked it with He Hongjin's:
"I'm sorry to bother you this time."
He Hongjin said hurriedly:
"Oh, my dear relatives, we are all family! It's only natural for us to visit each other, so please don't say such inappropriate things!"
He Hongjin and Lu Yuanzheng sat on the corner of the table next to the chief and second seat.
Fu Jingyou and Hu Zhiyuan are from the younger generation, so they sit at the end of the table.
When the elders raised their glasses, they followed suit.
The large table was sparsely populated, with only the four of them sitting there.
Chen Guifen, Tian Guihua, Lu Miao and several other children set up a small table nearby.
Sitting at separate tables does not depend on gender hierarchy.
But they are all familiar with each other. The host will definitely show respect to the elders and guests, but more importantly, they will do whatever makes them feel comfortable.
For example, at this moment, everyone at the small table is relaxed and contented, chatting and laughing.
In terms of liveliness, it is many times more lively than at the big table.
Because of the matter between Brother He and Zhao Lanxiang, He Hongjin and Chen Guifen haven't been coming here often recently.
Whenever he came over, he always had his eyebrows drooped and sighed constantly.
At this moment, Lu Yuanzheng brought Baichuan. On one side of the small table, Chen Guifen sat next to Lu Miao, calling him "little golden egg" with every word, and her teeth were exposed with joy.
Over at the big table, He Hongjin took a sip of wine with Lu Yuanzheng and then leaned over to take a look.
He also grinned and laughed.
The whole hall was filled with joy.
After dinner, Lu Miao brewed tea himself, with one pot on the big table and one pot on the small table.
Lu Yuanzheng and Fu Jingyou, the father-in-law and son-in-law, were talking inside the door, while the small table was moved under the jujube tree outside the door.
When the uncles and aunts who were collecting grain in the threshing ground heard that Fu Xiaoliu's youngest son had returned, they all put down their work temporarily and sat over to drink tea and watch the fun.
Seeing that Baichuan was fair and solid, and his features were exactly like those of Fu Xiaoliu when he was a child, someone said curiously:
"This kid is so good-looking and doesn't look like a stranger at all. He looks just like the young master of a rich family!"
He Hongjin was standing by and looking at the child with a smile, but when he heard this, his face suddenly turned fierce:
"What are you talking about!"
The man also realized that this statement was wrong and quickly changed his words:
"Little Six Wife, I'm saying this kid is well-educated, sensible and generous, don't think too much!"
After all, everyone in the village knows that Fu Xiaoliu’s ancestors were wealthy people.
Lu Miao just smiled faintly and didn't get angry.
She could still tell whether it was a genuine emotion or deliberate sarcasm.
Lu Miao poured tea for the old aunt and other uncles, aunts and sisters-in-law around her, smiling and talking, his eyes always on Bai Chuan.
At the table in the main hall, Lu Yuanzheng withdrew his gaze from outside the door.
When he looked at Fu Jingyou, he asked seriously:
"When are you planning on going back?"
Fu Jingyou said: "Miaomiao's health condition has improved. After the last course of medicine is finished, it will be around November or December at the end of the year."
"……Um."
Lu Yuanzheng responded solemnly.
Seeing that he was frowning, and wanting him to come in person this time, Fu Jingyou carefully asked:
"Dad, did something happen in Beijing?"
