"Let's go and take a look. If you can be of any use to us, we'll trouble you again." Seeing that his father-in-law had left, Gu Mingze called Li Jianguo to go and take a look as well.
"Oh, it's not a big deal. Your business is my business. I'm willing to help you no matter how much trouble you have." Li Jianguo said to Gu Mingze, and then said to Lu Qingyan: "Sister-in-law, the captain and I will go and do our work first. When we have time, I will take you to the commune and I will treat you to a meal."
"Come over when you're done. It's a happy day, so you can share in the joy." Lu Qingyan smiled and said
"I won't come today. I have to go back to the commune after I finish my work. After all, it's working hours, and it's not good for me to be out for too long." Li Jianguo shook his head and refused, then asked Gu Mingze to lead the way. The two went to the brigade.
"Xiaoyan, I just heard the policeman calling your husband the head of the regiment. How high of an official is this head of the regiment?" An old lady watched the policeman and Xiaoyan's man leave, and she came up to Lu Qingyan and asked.
"He's not a high-ranking official. He was a police officer who was in the same unit as my husband. We have a good relationship, so I asked him for help." Lu Qingyan smiled when she heard what the old lady said.
"Oh, that's what happened." Seeing that Lu Qingyan didn't want to talk, the old lady curled her lips and turned around to busy herself nearby.
Lu Qingyan looked at the woman's back and shrugged helplessly, then looked at his second brother and said, "Second brother, go ask my second sister-in-law to come over and help with the housework. My eldest brother should be here with the bride soon."
"Okay, I'll go right away." Upon hearing this, Lu Qinglin hurried to the field and asked his wife to come over to help.
I was still angry with my wife. She had told me in the morning to go over early to help.
My wife refused to do it, saying that she wanted to earn some work points before going to help.
This is terrible. Such a big thing happened today. When his wife goes there later, she will definitely be scolded by his mother.
"Mom, stop busying yourself here. Go inside and see if you're missing anything. They should be here soon." After her second brother left, Lu Qingyan found her mother who was cutting vegetables and said,
"Okay, I'll go check it out." After hearing what her daughter said, Mother Lu put down the kitchen knife in her hand, washed her hands, and went into the house.
Just like that, about ten minutes later, Father Lu, Gu Mingze and the captain came back with gloomy expressions.
Just as Lu Qingyan was about to go up and ask something, she saw his elder brother coming over on a bicycle with the bride.
"Hurry, hurry, the bride is here." Lu Qingyan swallowed the words that were about to come out of her mouth, and hurriedly called everyone to get busy. The bride was brought back.
Liu Fang was wearing a set of clean old clothes, her face was slightly painted red, her hair was combed neatly, and she was sitting on the back of the bicycle with a flushed face.
After entering the house and looking at the clean and tidy house, she felt very satisfied and made up her mind that as long as her husband and two stepsons were good to her, she would also be good to them with all her heart.
The people from the Lu family outside don’t know what Liu Fang is thinking.
Everything is ready here, let's start cooking.
All the relatives outside were seated, waiting for the banquet.
About half an hour later, all the dishes were ready.
Lu Qinglin led a group of friends to start serving the dishes.
Lu Qingyan took the four children to the kitchen, got some food and went to the bride's room.
"You are here." Liu Fang was sitting in the room stiffly. When she saw her sister-in-law leading four children into the room, she immediately stood up and said
"Sister-in-law, hurry up and do it. It's already noon. You probably haven't eaten yet, right? I've served you some food, but I need you to do me a small favor." Lu Qingyan put the food in her hand on the table and said with a smile.
"What help? You tell me. As long as I can do it, I will definitely help you." When Liu Fang saw her sister-in-law asking her for help, she immediately agreed and said that she would definitely help if she could do it.
"It's not a big job, but there are a lot of people outside, and it's not convenient for me to take care of the children, so I was thinking, can you help look after these four children?" Lu Qingyan saw that the new sister-in-law in front of her was very easy to talk to, so she said that it was noisy outside and it would be bad to let the children go out and cause trouble, so could she help look after them?
Although she said this, what she was thinking in her heart was that she was afraid that she would feel uncomfortable staying in the room alone, so she asked the children to come over and keep her company.
Another thing is that she wanted Gangzi and Shitou to spend some time alone with Liu Fang to see what their attitudes were towards each other.
"Okay, okay, it's just that I'm bored staying in the room alone, so let the kids stay in the room with me." Liu Fang has always liked children since she went to the county for a check-up and was told that she couldn't have children.
When she saw her sister-in-law asked her to help look after four children, she immediately happily agreed.
"Gangzi, Shitou, Jingming, Qiming, the four of you need to stay in the house and listen to your mother and aunt, okay?" Lu Qingyan had to go out and was busy, so she couldn't stay in the house for too long. She gave the four children a few words and walked out.
But she didn't walk far after she went out. She just stood there and listened carefully to what was said in the room, wanting to hear what they were saying.
After seeing her sister-in-law go out, Liu Fang relaxed and called a few children to go to the table with her to eat.
"Aunt, we've already eaten, you can eat by yourself." Qiming said without any shyness.
"Have you really eaten? There's a lot of food here. I can't finish it all by myself. Can you help me eat some more?" Liu Fang said to the four children, and then said to Gangzi and Shitou: "Gangzi and Shitou, you two can bring your two brothers to eat with me, okay?"
"Yeah." Gangzi and Shitou couldn't even pronounce their mother's name, so they just nodded indifferently and led their brothers to the table, where they sat on the stools and didn't say anything.
"All this meat is for you to eat. Look at how thin you are. Eat more meat to replenish your body." Liu Fang didn't expect Gangzi and Shitou to eat with her, so she sat down immediately, gave all the meat on the table to the children, and sat there eating rice and vegetables.
"You eat too." Gangzi saw that the woman in front of him actually gave all the meat on the plate to them. After hesitating for a moment, he also picked up the chopsticks, picked up two pieces of meat from his bowl, and put them in Liu Fang's bowl.
"Okay, okay, I'll eat them all. I'll eat them all." Liu Fang was moved by Gangzi's actions and said with a tearful smile.
"Don't cry, don't cry, if someone comes in, they will think we are bullying you." Gangzi panicked when he saw the woman in front of him crying.
"I didn't cry. I was really happy that Gao Xinwen has two sons." Hearing this, Liu Fang reached out to wipe away her tears, looked at Gangzi and Shitou and assured them, "Don't worry, you two, I will definitely treat you well in the future. I will give you all the good food and drinks at home!"
"good!"
