Chapter 141: The Fu Family's Kid is Really Lucky
Xie Fei felt this way, which is why he sent such a letter home.
It’s a pity that the letter seemed to have fallen into oblivion.
In half a month, Xie Fei went to the town post office several times, but returned empty-handed each time.
Xie Fei even wondered if the letter was lost along the way and his family never received it.
Xie Fei was considering taking the time to send another letter. At this critical moment, Lu Miao came back again.
Listening to the discussions among the members and female educated youth, Xie Fei found it unbelievable, but he was more delighted in his heart.
What are you happy about?
He doesn't quite know.
Perhaps it was because he still had a glimmer of hope in his heart, thinking that even if Lu Miao let him go, it would not be so easy.
Lu Miao, there must still be a place for him in my heart!
With his fantasy in mind, Xie Fei was ecstatic. He didn't have time to go back to the educated youth site to put away his farm tools. He ran down the hillside at the back mountain quickly, wanting to see Lu Miao as soon as possible.
However, after entering the production team's territory, the whispered conversations of the uncles and aunts he met along the way made him unable to restrain himself and slow down his pace.
What did those uncles and aunts say?
"Do you think this is true or false? How could the only child of the Fu family be so lucky? He was able to marry a female educated youth!"
"Who said she wasn't? She was even called a golden flower among the educated youth! Tsk tsk..."
"I heard that Lu Zhiqing's family is an official! What do you think? Is the Fu family going to make a comeback?"
“…”
What Xie Fei heard was just the tip of the iceberg.
At noon, Fu Jingyou and Lu Miao returned to the production team, and Lu Miao followed Fu Jingyou back to the Fu family. The people in the team did not know the actual situation, and many people talked about it openly and secretly.
He Hongjin knew that Lu Miao was unwilling to suffer any injustice and was afraid that Lu Miao would get angry again.
While delivering chickens to Lu Miao and Fu Jingyou in the afternoon, He Hongjin had already asked Chen Guifen to spread the news.
The news of their marriage had spread, and at least no one would think that Fu Jingyou and Lu Miao were having an affair.
He Hongjin had a good plan, but the difference in status between Fu Jingyou and Lu Miao was too great, so it was good for the team members to be shocked.
Some gossipy old ladies even secretly speculated that Lu Miao had been gone for only half a month, and when he came back, the news of his marriage to Fu Jingyou spread.
He was so anxious, not to mention the banquet, he hadn't even leaked any information before...
Recalling the rumors that had been circulating in the team a while ago, some people privately speculated whether Lu Miao had been entangled with Fu Jingyou for a long time.
Are you in such a hurry to get married this time because you're pregnant and can't hide it anymore, so you're rushing it...
Among these discussions, the voices of Wu Baoyin and Chen Shulan, who had a grudge against Lu Miao, were the loudest.
They did not hide their malice towards Lu Miao, which affected the team's atmosphere both publicly and privately.
When He Hongjin came, he found these two people to talk. At first, Wu Baoyin and Chen Shulan refused to admit it, but after being deducted 50 work points, they could no longer hold back and started to clamor.
They questioned He Hongjin on what basis and whether he was intentionally favoring Fu Jingyou and Lu Miao, two of his own people.
He Hongjin sneered on the spot and said, "If you are not afraid of Lu Zhiqing, then find Lu Zhiqing to confront him. If you go to the commune and make trouble, it will not be as simple as 50 work points." This directly intimidated Wu Baoyin and Chen Shulan.
He Hongjin is a man, and Wu Baoyin and Chen Shulan are a bit unreasonable. Sometimes He Hongjin finds them annoying, but they can still manage to fool him.
But Lu Miao is different...
She is not only a girl, but also well-educated, and most importantly, she is not afraid of tough situations.
Wu Baoyin and Chen Shulan had suffered losses at the hands of Lu Miao, and they were afraid that the situation would really get reported to the commune as He Hongjin said.
Even though they were unwilling and dissatisfied with having their work points deducted, Wu Baoyinhe and Chen Shulan could only swallow the anger.
After being scolded, the two men left He Hongjin's house together.
He Hongjin called them again.
"Captain, what else?"
Wu Baoyin's face was downcast and he looked unhappy.
He Hongjin's face was even more drawn out than hers, and he slapped the table and reminded her:
"Don't call me a bad boy behind my back anymore. I'm a legitimate poor peasant, a very honorable person."
He Hongjin had waited for many years to say this, and now he finally said it.
I felt inexplicably happy and proud, as if my back and shoulders had been relieved.
Wu Baoyin and Zhang Shulan looked at each other, and gradually saw each other's stiff expressions in their eyes.
They were shocked by Fu Jingyou's character and even more surprised by He Hongjin's words.
Bad boy...
It turns out that the production team leader knew what they were talking about behind their backs all along!
Wu Baoyin and Zhang Shulan swallowed their saliva and finally calmed down this time. They nodded and left quickly.
In the main hall of the He family, He Hongjin sat at the table in a daze for a long time, then suddenly touched his face and smiled.
"After all the hardship comes happiness. It really is..."
On the other side is the Fu family.
After returning home with Fu Jingyou, Lu Miao was always worried about one issue when he went to bed at night.
The old term is called "consummating the marriage."
Although she was a modern time traveler, she was still a girl after all and had never been in a serious relationship before. She was too shy to talk about such things and was not mentally prepared.
Just when I was hesitating and didn't know what to do, something unexpected happened when I was lying in bed with Fu Jingyou that night.
Fu Jingyou is sick.
The disease was severe and he suddenly had a high fever.
Lu Miao was startled.
The Fu family’s house is not small. It is usually quite dark during the day and even darker at night.
Fu Jingyou was so dizzy from the fever that he couldn't accompany her at all.
Trying hard to ignore his fear of the dark place in the house, Lu Miao quickly fetched some cold water with a kerosene lamp.
She wrung out a wet towel to wipe Fu Jingyou's body and apply it to his forehead to cool him down.
After changing and twisting the handkerchief repeatedly for more than two hours, Fu Jingyou's fever did not subside at all.
Lu Miao was afraid that something might go wrong with the fire, so he lit a kerosene lamp on the table and took another lamp to the team to knock on He Hongjin's door.
Afterwards, He Hongjin and Chen Guifen came back with her, carrying half a bottle of white wine.
He Hongjin went into the room and took some white wine to wipe Fu Jingyou's body. Chen Guifen saw Lu Miao's worry and hugged Lu Miao in the main room to comfort him.
"For the past ten years, I've carried a heavy burden, and now that it's suddenly been lifted, my spirit and my bones have relaxed. This is what will happen... Don't be afraid, it will happen to everyone."
Lu Miao nodded slowly, "Yeah."
Fu Jingyou's fever subsided a little in the second half of the night, and he had a low fever for the next two days and fell into a deep sleep.
Lu Miao stayed by the bed all the time. Chen Guifen would either prepare the meal and bring it to him, or he would just cook it here.
She always came here to cook for herself before, and the kitchen was fully stocked with everything. Chen Guifen was unaware of this, but after seeing this, she lightened the mood and joked:
"Your wedding was rushed, but looking at the things in the kitchen, it looks like they were prepared long ago. Your uncle and I are worried that you might be missing something."
Lu Miao humphed twice and forced a smile.
Chen Guifen patted her shoulder and said, "Don't be afraid. Jingyou has rested for several days. He will be fine in the next two days."
