After leaving Lu Jinguang's house, Lu Zhengguo didn't rest. Instead, he went around to other houses, delivering the message to each one and making sure everyone was notified.
Many people were also speaking well of Song Qinghe, implying that Lu Zhaolin had gotten a great deal by marrying her, and that they were afraid the Lu family would mistreat her.
Lu Zhaolin followed behind, listening. Although his expression seemed calm, his eyebrows were practically flying off his chest.
You can tell at a glance that he's very happy!
Lu Dongzheng would glance at him from time to time; his son had always been one to keep his emotions hidden.
I never expected there to be this side to him. It seems that Lu Zhaolin is truly satisfied with Song Qinghe.
Lu Zhaolin was a little annoyed by Lu Dongzheng's teasing gaze. What did he mean by that? Why was he staring at him like that?
"Aren't you happy when others praise my mom?"
Oh, did I say anything?
Lu Dongzheng asked calmly, "I haven't said a word. Is Xiao Liu getting too excited?"
Lu Zhaolin glanced at him, then simply shut up and remained silent.
Forget it, there's nothing more to say!
On the other side, after all the men in the house had left, Zhou Wanru got up and took out a bankbook to hand to Song Qinghe.
Song Qinghe was completely dumbfounded. What was wrong with the Lu family? Did everyone like to give out bankbooks without a second thought?
Seeing her stunned expression, Zhou Wanru shoved the bankbook into her hand: "Qinghe, take it. There's 8,000 yuan in here. It's not a lot, but it's our token of appreciation."
“I’ve discussed it with Zhaolin’s dad. First, it’s relatively difficult to buy the ‘three turns and one sound’ here. Second, even if we did buy them, you two might not need them. It’s better to just convert them into cash and buy them when you need them.”
"The rest will be our betrothal gifts. Normally, we should prepare the betrothal gifts and come to your door to ask for your hand in marriage, but given the current situation, we can only make special arrangements."
Zhou Wanru actually felt quite sorry for her daughter-in-law, Song Qinghe, who deserved better.
Whether it's family background, character, or appearance, she's impeccable.
They really should treat her better.
But given the current situation, with the Song family in trouble, she can only make do for now.
Song Qinghe was a little hesitant to accept the offer; 8,000 yuan was no small sum, especially in this day and age.
Zhou Wanru clearly didn't consult her; she simply handed her the passbook.
Not only that, Zhou Wanru also looked at Zhao Chunxiang and Cui Mingzhen beside her and made a promise.
"Aunt Song, in-laws, don't worry, I will definitely treat Qinghe like my own daughter and won't let her suffer the slightest grievance."
"My dear in-law, you're too kind."
Cui Mingzhen was somewhat moved. The Song family had fallen to such a state that most people would have avoided them like the plague.
But the Lu family was different; they not only helped them unconditionally, but they did it in such a respectable way.
Even though they knew that even if they didn't give a bride price, the two old men wouldn't say anything out of consideration for their friendship.
Zhou Wanru smiled and said, "My dear in-law, what are you saying? We were just doing what we should do."
“I have a lot of children, and my womb is not cooperating. I have given birth to sons one after another. There is nothing I can do. My husband and I have made a lot of plans for them over the years. Every marriage is the same.”
Only by being impartial and unbiased can one be a good mother-in-law.
Zhou Wanru believed that she treated each of her sons exactly the same, with no difference between them.
At that time, even if the daughters-in-law wanted to find fault, they wouldn't be able to find anything to criticize.
Cui Mingzhen smiled and thanked them again. With such in-laws, she was naturally at ease knowing her daughter would marry into the family.
Today is the tenth day of the sixth lunar month, and there are still eight days until Song Qinghe's wedding.
They really need to get their furniture ready and move back as soon as possible; they can't keep staying at the Lu family's house indefinitely.
If I were to continue living at the Lu family's place, it just didn't feel right.
The daughter will be sent from home to get married at that time!
