Chapter 716: The Young Couple is Really Capable
The two of them used to be superiors and subordinates, so not only was it embarrassing to bring it up, even Ling's father was a little hesitant to say a word.
But the situation is different now. For the sake of our children, parents have to take risks when they should and bow their heads when they should.
It's not a matter of face or not.
But then again, they are the only ones who have some conditions and can use this relationship to play the emotional card.
There are so many families out there who are starving and have nowhere to turn to for help.
Lu Yuanzheng is not a stickler for convention, but his behavior is somewhat old-fashioned and conservative.
He himself is not very interested in things like using relationships and playing the emotional card.
But they have known each other for so many years, and Ling's father used to work under him.
Don't give the monk any face, but give the Buddha any face. Considering Ling's father's hard work, Lu Yuanzheng turned a blind eye to this kind of thing and agreed to it.
"Go home later and discuss it with the kids. If they really don't have any objections, you can have the kid work in the cafeteria when school starts."
"Hey, hey! Good, good, good!"
In the main room, Father Ling had put aside a worry, and he felt relieved, with the smile on his face becoming more genuine and obvious.
Seeing Lu Yuanzheng holding the youngest in his arms, Ling's father rubbed his hands with envy.
Finally, he couldn't help but waved his hands and called the other three older ones to come over. He hugged them one by one, as a way of satisfying his "children's desire" in advance.
Noticing the simple and happy smile on Ling's father's face, Lu Yuanzheng felt happy and like a child, with a sense of pride in his heart.
He held the soft, bony Yangyang close to show Father Ling, like he was offering a divine treasure.
"This is my grandson, Baichuan, Lu Baichuan."
"What? When did you give birth to another one?"
Father Ling looked confused.
Lu Yuanzheng was proud of something he had done and loved to show off, so he went into the house and took out the child's brand new household registration page to show others.
Two men in the house were chatting about their child's household registration, and two older women were also chatting outside the well.
"Where are the young couple? Where did they go? I didn't see them in the house."
"It's okay now that I'm out."
Tang Mei shook her head and sighed, then smiled and said:
"Xiao Fu went to the electromechanical factory for internship, and Xiao Bao went to that Guoyingshe Society. She said some foreigners came to our place recently, and she's busy there."
"Oh, I was wondering where they went to play since there were no classes during the summer vacation. Turns out they didn't even rest during the vacation!"
Mother Ling sighed with emotion and praised:
"It's good to be diligent. Young people should be diligent. The more diligent you are, the more capable you will be! Look at Xiaobao, how capable he is now! I heard that foreign officials who come to the country are usually received by leaders!"
Ling's mother is good at talking, and she praised Lu Miao and Fu Jingyou like flowers.
Tang Mei was so happy to hear that that even with the crow's feet at the corners of her eyes wrinkled, she smiled like a flower.
She is not the kind of parent who spoils the fun by quickly retorting when others praise her child, explaining things like "no" or "that's just the way it is."
On the contrary, no matter who praised the child, Tang Mei would feel proud and nod in agreement:
"The children are hardworking, so it's only natural that they excel. I think your Lingyuan and Wenpei are not bad either!"
The two women looked at each other and laughed happily.
The old couple of the Ling family had their meal here before leaving.
The braised fish made by Tang Mei.
A whole fish is enough to stew a large pot.
When Ling's parents left, they felt a little embarrassed:
"This fish was caught from the farm pond. I brought it here to let the children taste it during the autumn fattening season. Look at what it's like now."
"The children didn't get to eat it, but we ate it all."
"Where are you talking?"
Tang Mei smiled and pointed in the direction of the kitchen.
"Isn't there another one? You guys should share some of the ones you brought here, otherwise, they'll all go bad in this hot weather."
"Ha ha……"
The Ling couple rubbed their heads and smiled innocently.
It’s getting late, and there’s a lot of work to do this season.
There were still many things to do on the farm, so the old couple from the Ling family did not stay long and soon took their leave.
Tang Mei walked them to the gate of the yard. Turning back, she saw Lu Yuanzheng still holding the little golden nugget and rocking it back and forth to comfort him. She suddenly made a "tsk" sound and started nagging:
"It's okay for you to stand up and pretend to see them off after they leave, but your feet are like they're welded to the house. You're really going backwards!"
"Don't hold the little one in your arms all the time. His mother won't let anyone hold him more than once!"
Lu Yuanzheng chatted with her unhappily:
"Normally, I won't be allowed to hold my child when his mother is at home. Now that she's not home, can't I hold him?"
Tang Mei took a broom and swept the scattered fish bones and fish bones under the table, mocking him:
"You don't breastfeed the baby at night, and he'll develop a habit of needing someone to hold him all the time. How are you going to let the young couple rest?"
Unable to convince Tang Mei, Lu Yuanzheng frowned and muttered, "You're exaggerating."
After swinging little Baichuan around twice, he still cooperated and carried the child to the swing.
Seeing that there was an empty space in Grandpa's arms, Mingyi immediately raised his arms and moved closer:
"Grandpa, Grandpa!"
Lu Yuanzheng understood and bent down to hold the chubby boy under his arms and pick him up.
Mingyi pushed his hand away, kicking his toes and refusing to cooperate:
"Grandpa, I don't want to be held, I want to ride a big horse!"
"Where's the big horse for you to ride?"
Lu Yuanzheng's face turned stern, and he waved his hand and called out to Shi An:
"The little bicycle is behind the door. Take your brother outside to ride his bicycle under the shade of the tree."
Shi An was so well-behaved that she walked up to Ming Yi and wanted to hold his hand.
Mingyi refused to give in and stomped his feet like a calf, trying to get into his grandfather's arms.
"If you want to ride a big horse, you have to ride a big horse, um ~ Grandpa, Grandpa..."
Everyone in the Lu family has one characteristic, which is that they have a sharp tongue but a soft heart.
Lu Yuanzheng doted on his grandson too, and couldn't stand the boy's dawdling, so he picked him up and put him on his neck:
"Okay, Dama, Dama!"
Mingyi grinned, his little mouth open, drooling with joy.
Lu Yuanzheng waited until he had enough fun before he took him off the back of his neck and wiped his saliva carefully.
Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Shi An leaning against the door with his hands behind his back, staring intently.
Lu Yuanzheng waved the shy boy over to him, bowed and said "ouch", then lifted Shi An up and put him on his shoulder:
"Good boy, have you gained a bit of weight lately, huh?"
Shi An was startled by his body suddenly rising high, and subconsciously hugged Lu Yuanzheng's head tightly.
When Shi An realized that he was "riding a big horse", he felt uneasy and nervous.
But somewhere in my heart, it seemed as if I had suddenly relaxed.
Shi An's eyes curved, and a faint frown appeared under his eyes. He relaxed a little, smiled happily, and said very seriously:
"Grandpa, it's because grandma's cooking is so delicious that I eat a big bowl of rice every day!"
"Being able to eat is a blessing. Only by eating well can you grow strong. Eat more. When you grow up, grandpa will send you to the army."
"oh!"
Shi An didn't know what "troops" were, but seeing that his grandfather was serious, he nodded in agreement.
