the next day.
Qian Xin really went home.
He works in the waterway system and is responsible for ship scheduling at the port.
There is no port in the capital, but the city closest to the capital has the largest cargo port in the country.
Qian Xin saves up his vacation time every month and then goes home to take a vacation at the end of the month.
Qian Xin doesn't know that Lu Qian is living in the Qian family.
As soon as he entered the door and walked to the entrance of the living room, a sweet voice came from the stairs: "Brother Qian Xin!"
Lucy was wearing a yellow plaid dress, her hair was sleekly braided, and she had a red bow hairpin on top of her head.
She walked down the stairs with a cheerful pace, her eyes wandering around Qian Xin as she walked.
In a northern city where the average height is around 180cm, Qian Xin looks particularly thin in both stature and build.
He was a little over 1.7 meters tall and weighed just over 100 pounds. He had thin cheeks, flat eyebrows, a not very straight nose, and wore a pair of black-framed glasses.
It's the kind of appearance that is so embarrassing that you wouldn't even find it in a crowd of people.
He was wearing the dark grey work clothes issued by his company and a pair of black leather shoes, looking very simple and unpretentious.
Lu Qian hadn't seen Qian Xin for a long time, and she thought he would be different after he started working.
Looking at it now, I feel a little disappointed.
But she still had a sweet smile on her face and kept calling me "brother".
When Qian Xin saw Lu Qian, he was obviously stunned.
I didn't expect her to show up in my house.
Qian Xin nodded at Lu Qian, his lips moved, but he didn't utter a word for a long time.
Lu Qian looked at his dull appearance and laughed in her heart. He was still as dull as when he was a child, speechless when he saw a girl.
"Sit down," Lu Qian pointed to the sofa, "Are you tired from the journey? I'll go to the kitchen to get you some water."
Zhou Ping heard the noise from the kitchen and came out with a glass of water: "No need, Xixi, I'll just pour the water."
He handed the enamel cup in his hand to his son, stood by and watched him drink the water sip by sip with a smile.
Thinking of something, Zhou Ping turned around and took out ten yuan from his pocket and handed it to Lu Qian:
"Xixi, we're out of soy sauce at home. Take this money to the store and buy a bottle. Use the remaining money to buy some snacks you like."
"Okay, Aunt Zhou." Lu Qian took the money and went out very tactfully.
She knew that Zhou Ping wanted to get her out of the way so that she could have a private conversation with her son.
After Lu Qian left, Zhou Ping turned around and told her son about Lu Qian and the Lu family.
"This is what Mom thinks. You're not a child anymore. It's time to start a family after waiting for so long.
What do you think of Xixi? Our families know each other well. I've watched her grow up. She's well-educated and good-looking. And don't you remember you often mentioned her?
Now that she has had this incident, I think it would be better to let her stay in our house and be your wife, what do you think?"
Qian Xin paused while drinking water, and finally understood why Lu Qian suddenly appeared in his house.
"She...has nothing to do with the Lu family anymore?"
Zhou Ping nodded, a hint of sympathy flashing across her face. "Of course, I didn't expect your Aunt Zhang to be so decisive. To protect her own daughter from being wronged, she directly kicked Xixi out of the house."
"Anyway, it seems that the Lu family has no intention of recognizing Lu Qian. But who knows if they will have a change of heart later? After all, how many daughters can be born as decent as Lu Qian?"
Qian Xin hesitated for a moment and asked again: "What does Lu Qian mean? Is she willing to marry me?"
Zhou Ping said, "Of course she is willing. I mentioned this to her the day she came to our house. She didn't object and has been staying at our house for so many days. Isn't that her tacit consent?"
Qian Xin put down the water cup and finally relented, "Then you arrange it, Mom."
"You promised, son?"
Zhou Ping's face showed joy, as if she had already seen the scene of herself holding her grandson in her arms in the future.
Seeing his mother's excitement, Qian Xin couldn't help but remind her, "But Mom, I don't like big ceremonies. Just getting the certificate and having a meal as a family will be enough."
He really doesn't like socializing and doesn't like appearing in crowded places.
Besides, he and Lu Qian had no feelings for each other, so there was no need for them to act like a loving couple in front of others.
Zhou Ping didn't know what her son was thinking and just thought that he was very fond of Lu Qian.
Since her son has agreed to get married, why would she care so much?
She agreed repeatedly: "Don't worry, Mom will definitely respect your opinion."
After the mother and son finalized their marriage, the next thing to do was to discuss the betrothal gifts.
Qian Xin said: "Mom, you can give whatever you want as a betrothal gift, just like any other ordinary family."
Zhou Ping has not yet completely separated Lu Qian from the Lu family. She subconsciously feels that it is impossible for the Lu family to completely ignore Lu Qian.
"How can that be? Xixi has been raised pampered since she was a child. The Lu family has given her the best of everything, so the betrothal gift must naturally be higher than other families."
Qian Xin: "Mom, why don't you see clearly? Lu Qian is no longer a member of the Lu family. She is willing to marry me just because she is reluctant to leave the circle of the capital."
"Do you really think she has any feelings for me and our family?"
Zhou Ping: "Son, you can't say that. As the saying goes, love grows over time. Isn't it natural for a couple to develop feelings for each other over time? We've all been through this.
You see, you're quiet, and Lu Qian is sweet and lively. Your two personalities complement each other perfectly, how wonderful!"
Zhou Ping was still fantasizing about the loving relationship between her son and Lu Qian, but Qian Xin was already a little tired of dealing with it. He stood up and brushed off his clothes, "Mom, I'll do whatever you say. As long as you're happy."
After saying that, Qian Xin went upstairs to the bedroom.
Zhou Ping wanted to take advantage of the few days her son was at home to finalize the marriage.
