What she didn't know was that Duoduo would come to her house to celebrate the New Year for many years to come, even after they got married and even after she had reached a very high position.
Just like what we said before, let’s celebrate the New Year together.
Now she didn't think too much about it and agreed to Duoduo.
"Sister, can you teach me to recite poetry?"
"Okay." She recited the poem.
As he recited, he yawned, and the two of them didn't last long before they fell asleep.
When they woke up the next day, everyone changed into new clothes. Lu Xiangxiang dressed very beautifully inside and wore a super thick military coat outside.
The same goes for Duoduo.
She pushed a 26-inch bicycle out of the yard, which she bought with the ticket Zhou Ziheng gave her.
They came with some biscuits and fruit. She initially thought it was too little, but Miao Cuihua said it was just right. Who would bring so many things to someone's house before they even got married or separated from their family? If they were going to give anything, shouldn't they be the ones to do it?
Miao Cuihua thought that she was being very polite to them by bringing these things to their door.
Lu Xiangxiang didn't really want to bring it up. In her opinion, her scumbag father had everything he needed. She was just asking the question deliberately. After all, he was still her grandmother's son.
Duoduo and Miao Cuihua both sat in the back. Neither of them was fat, so there was enough space for them.
After tying the things they brought to the front of the car, they set off.
It took twenty minutes to get to Lu's house. It doesn't usually take that long, but the road was difficult to walk on.
This 26-inch bike fits her perfectly and she is not afraid of falling.
When they arrived at their destination, they were finally allowed to pass after being questioned by the sentries.
This time, the few of them did not continue to stay in the car, but chose to walk.
Duoduo stepped forward and grabbed her clothes. Seeing her like this, Lu Xiangxiang wondered if Duoduo was nervous.
"Relax, Duoduo, don't be afraid. We don't live with them. We just came to see them."
"Sister, I'm afraid they won't like me."
"Duoduo is so nice, how could I not like you?" she asked back.
Duoduo lowered her head and she touched Duoduo's head. "If they don't like you, I don't like them either. It doesn't matter to me whether they like you or not. My family only has you and grandma. Do you understand?"
"Yeah." She nodded.
"What's wrong? Why don't you come in?" Miao Cuihua stood at the door and looked at the two sisters who were whispering to each other.
"Nothing." They smiled at each other and walked in together.
At this time, the Lu family was ready to welcome them, and Lu Yuantao was standing at the door to greet them.
"Mom, think about you two, Duoduo, and you're here too?" Lu Yuantao greeted.
He knew about Duoduo, after all, Miao Cuihua told him when she adopted her.
He now pays the rent every year and has also repaid the money. Lu Xiangxiang has a job and a high salary, so he can support a child, so he has no objection to this.
Girls can also become a support to their family in the future. Look how good the second daughter’s marriage is.
As for his eldest daughter, he had his own plans. He planned to let Lu Xiangxiang go on a blind date in a few days.
Only Miao Cuihua and the Zhou family knew that Lu Xiangxiang was dating Zhou Ziheng, and Lu Yuantao was kept in the dark.
He didn't know that Lu Xiangxiang was dating, and of course they didn't plan to tell anyone.
Duoduo is not bad looking and is twelve years old. She will be able to get married in a few years, he thought to himself.
His calculating eyes fell on Duoduo, who was hiding behind Lu Xiangxiang and pinching her clothes.
She really disliked Lu Xiangxiang's father and always felt that this man seemed to be plotting something.
That look was the same as her uncle and aunt's. If the person she offended hadn't been so terrible, her uncle and aunt would never have kicked her out no matter what. She was twelve years old now, and after raising her for a few more years, they could sell her, oh no, marry her off and earn some dowry money.
Fortunately, she mustered up the courage to find her sister that day, got to know her sister, and shamelessly went to her door. Otherwise, she would not have the life she has now.
As long as she can always be with her sister, she doesn't care.
Feeling the girl's fear, Lu Xiangxiang patted her hands and silently comforted her.
With her comfort, Duoduo felt much better.
"Well, what are you still standing there for? Don't you think twice about your mother? My hands are sore from carrying all the things." Miao Cuihua said dissatisfiedly.
He finally reacted after hearing her words, "I'm sorry, Mom."
Coming forward to pick up the things in her hands, Miao Cuihua walked in and looked at her, "Where is your wife?"
"She's still sleeping."
"What a lazy woman! Which wife is still sleeping so late?" You know, they set out at eight o'clock, and it's already half past eight and they haven't gotten up yet.
Nowadays, few people sleep in until this late. Even if there are days when they sleep in, why would anyone tell them to? Of course, they will get up early.
"Mom, Huifen was busy until very late yesterday, so she is still sleeping now." Lu Yuantao said embarrassedly.
"What's up?"
"Mom, you know Huifen is the head of the art troupe. During the Chinese New Year, the troupe members have to go around performing and visiting relatives and friends, and they have no time to celebrate the New Year. It's only because you came this year that they took time out to give themselves a holiday. They also went to perform yesterday and came back a little late." There was nothing wrong with what Lu Yuantao said, it was true.
Miao Cuihua was not an unreasonable person. When she heard this, she snorted coldly and said nothing.
Sitting on the sofa in the living room, Lu Yuantao turned on the TV, which was playing the news.
Miao Cuihua read it with great interest. Lu Xiangxiang and Duoduo sat on the sofa together, and Aunt Niu brought them tea.
There are also many fruits, dried fruits, etc. on the table.
She took a handful and gave it to Duoduo without hesitation, and Duoduo took it and ate it without hesitation.
Lu Yuantao went upstairs to wake up those who had not gotten up yet.
About ten minutes later, three people came down from upstairs.
Lu Zhiyuan, Lu Zhiyao and Liang Huifen.
"Mom, Happy New Year." Liang Huifen greeted Miao Cuihua when she saw her.
"I don't deserve it."
"Happy New Year, Grandma." Lu Zhiyuan and Lu Zhiyao called Grandma together.
Miao Cuihua took out two red envelopes from her pocket and handed them to the two people, receiving their blessings.
Liang Huifen looked at Lu Xiangxiang, and Lu Xiangxiang said Happy New Year. Duoduo called out Happy New Year to Auntie. Then Liang Huifen took out red envelopes and gave them to Lu Xiangxiang and Duoduo.
Lu Xiangxiang took it and found that there was ten yuan inside. She smiled even more sincerely.
"Thank you, Auntie."
When she opened the red envelope, Liang Huifen couldn't help rolling her eyes. Lu Xiangxiang didn't care about her. If she wanted to see it, she would see it. It would be best if she could be mad to death.
Liang Huifen was very angry, but she held it back.
It’s not customary to curse during the New Year, and Miao Cuihua is still around, so she really can’t beat her.
She said with a forced smile, "I can see that Xiangxiang was so happy to get the red envelope that he actually opened it directly."
