But what about the fish and shrimp? There are such good things here.
Lu Jiefang peeled a shrimp and put it into his partner's bowl.
"These are dried shrimp that I brought back from my trip to Hangzhou during the Korean War. Try them and see if they're good."
Zhong Yanling glanced at Lu Yuanchao, surprised that the shrimp was brought back by her future brother-in-law.
In her memory, this future brother-in-law was just a lazy bum at home. She heard that he had recently been helping to collect herbs, but he didn't have much money.
Unlike his two older brothers, who both have good jobs.
But now I hear he's gone to Hangzhou by car, I don't know what's going on.
However, it wasn't appropriate to ask now, so I shifted my focus to eating.
The family was happily eating, and when everyone had almost finished eating, Lu Yuanchao finally spoke.
"Father, Mother, I have something to discuss with you."
Wang Hongmei casually replied, "What is it?"
Lu Yuanchao had already rehearsed his speech many times, and now he could speak fluently without hesitation.
"Father, Mother, I've taken a liking to a girl and would like you to send a matchmaker to propose marriage."
"Alright, alright, please send a matchmaker to our door."
Before Wang Hongmei could say anything, Grandma Lu happily agreed.
My grandson is 20 this year; he should have been married by now.
Wang Hongmei was also pleasantly surprised. She stopped eating, put down her chopsticks, and excitedly asked...
"Whom have you taken a fancy to? Which family's daughter is she from?"
Everyone else stared at him with curiosity, but Zhong Yanling frowned almost imperceptibly.
If the future brother-in-law is also going to get married, then the Lu family will have to marry two daughters-in-law at once.
Does the Lu family have that kind of power?
Will they withhold the bride price from her?
With her head down, she shoveled rice into her mouth, her mind racing, trying to figure out how to dissuade her family from arranging a marriage for her future brother-in-law.
