Cheng Mingyue didn't want people to continue to speculate, so she explained:
"Lu Chen is fine. His family came to pick him up and take him back to Beijing."
Some people felt that Cheng Mingyue was not telling the truth and continued to ask: "Take him back to Beijing? Then why are those people carrying guns?"
Cheng Mingyue suppressed her impatience and explained again: "His grandfather is from the military. Those people are his grandfather's soldiers, protecting his safety."
"Oh~ So that's how it is!"
Someone asked, "Lu Zhiqing has returned to Beijing, so why didn't he take you with him?"
The village chief flew into a rage again: "Get out of here! If you say another word of nonsense, you'll all be sent to collect manure!"
Seeing that the village chief looked like he was going to eat someone, everyone was so scared that they dared not say anything and ran away.
As soon as they left Cheng Mingyue's yard, everyone started whispering again.
"Grandpa Lu Chen's soldiers are so strong, he must be a high-ranking official. Do you think he will come back to Beijing after returning to Beijing?"
"What is Jingshi? What is our place? You can figure it out just by using your toes. Why are you asking?"
"Is that really the case? But Mingyue is as beautiful as a flower, would he be willing to let her go?"
"Are you stupid? Beijing has everything, and you're still in need of good-looking people. He's such a high-ranking official, what can he not get?"
“…”
They chattered back and forth, and although their voices were very low, the village chief and Cheng Mingyue in the yard could still hear it clearly.
The village chief wanted to go out and fight those people, but was stopped by Cheng Mingyue.
"Dad, why are you doing this?"
"You're not angry at all? What can I say about you? That Lu Chen is such an ungrateful person. He just left without saying a word. Yue'er, what are you going to do?"
As the village chief said this, he squatted on the ground, covering his face with his hands and started crying.
Cheng Mingyue felt very uncomfortable, but she had to comfort the village chief. She pulled his arm and said:
"Dad, please stop crying. He told me he would come back to pick me up. It would be a waste of your tears now, wouldn't it?"
The village chief wiped the tears from his face, his eyes widened:
"Did he really say he would come back to pick you up? You didn't lie to me?"
Cheng Mingyue nodded vigorously: "Lu Chen really said that, why would I lie to you. Dad, have you eaten? Why don't we eat first!"
"...Okay, let's eat."
The village chief originally wanted to go back, but then he changed his mind and was afraid that Cheng Mingyue would have wild thoughts if she was alone at home, so he decided to stay and have dinner with her.
Neither of them had a good appetite today, so they put down their chopsticks after taking a few quick bites.
The village chief rarely followed Cheng Mingyue into the kitchen to clean up the dishes. While cleaning, he secretly observed Cheng Mingyue's expression.
After finishing the cleaning, the village chief did not rush to leave, but sat down. After a long while, the village chief finally spoke:
"Yue'er, why don't you pack up and go home tonight? Your mother and I are worried about you living here alone."
Cheng Mingyue didn't want to go back, and the village chief covered his face and started crying again:
"Yue'er, I..."
Without waiting for the village chief to finish crying, Cheng Mingyue rubbed his temples, feeling a little overwhelmed.
"Dad, Xiaolong and Xiaohu are already living in my room, so I won't go back. Besides, you know my skills, and I'm more than capable of protecting myself, so don't worry."
"Two fists can't beat four hands. No matter how powerful you are, if someone really wants to harm you, they have plenty of ways to do it. If you think your home is too crowded, let your second brother and his family move in, and you can live with us."
"Yue'er, if Lu Chen comes back, you can just change him back, okay? Just think of this as a way to reassure your mother and me. Just be obedient, okay?"
The village chief felt like crying as soon as he started talking.
Before Cheng Mingyue could say anything, she heard Wang Guihua crying at the door.
have to!
Here comes another one!
"Yue'er, wuwuwu~ My poor daughter, that damn Lu Chen, we were so good to him, but he just left without saying anything, how could he be so cruel! Wuwuwu..."
Wang Guihua walked into the yard crying. When she saw that the village chief was also crying, she could no longer hold back. The old couple hugged each other and burst into tears.
Cheng Xiangdong behind him clenched his fists tightly, his eyes were bloodshot, and he looked like he was ready to fight to the death.
Looking at Zhang Hongying and Zhang Lan again, both of them were crying with their hands covering their mouths, and even the two little ones behind them were crying with tears and snot.
The scene was so spectacular that all the depression in Cheng Mingyue's heart disappeared, and she burst out laughing.
Several people even stopped crying and looked at Cheng Mingyue in disbelief.
How can she still laugh?!
Wang Guihua didn't have time to cry anymore. She hurried over, touched Cheng Mingyue's forehead, and even tried to lift her eyelids.
Cheng Mingyue was speechless and stamped her feet: "Mom, I'm not crazy! What are you doing? Why are you crying? Lu Chen said he would come to pick me up after he made arrangements."
"Is it true? Why did I hear from the villagers that Lu Chen left and never came back? They also said that the educated youth in several villages had the same experience and never came back after leaving."
Wang Guihua was afraid that Cheng Mingyue was lying to them in order to reassure them, so she couldn't help but confirm it again.
Cheng Mingyue rubbed her brows and patiently explained, "It's more real than gold. Besides, you should all know what Lu Chen is like during this period. He is definitely not the kind of person they say he is. You can put your hearts at ease."
Wang Guihua felt a little relieved when she saw that Cheng Mingyue didn't seem to be lying to them.
When the village chief heard this, he stopped crying and stood up.
"Then you can move in with us and move back when Lu Chen comes back."
"Yue'er, your father is right. You are the only one left at home now, so it's a good opportunity for you to move in with us. We are worried about you being here alone."
Even Cheng Xiangdong, Zhang Hongying and others started to persuade him.
"Little sister, please move back so that you can have someone to look after you. You are so beautiful, how can you live alone?"
"That's right, little sister, move back."
"Aunt, I want to live with you..."
Cheng Mingyue was really annoyed by these people and had no choice but to nod and agree.
The two little ones were so happy that they went crazy. One of them held Cheng Mingyue's arm and shook it happily.
"Yue'er, since you've decided to move, hurry up and pack up. Let's move now."
The village chief and others were afraid that Cheng Mingyue would change her mind later, so they urged her to pack her things quickly.
All right.
What a sweet burden.
What else could Cheng Mingyue say? She had to go into the house and start cleaning up.
Cheng Xiangdong ran back home and pushed the cart over. It took him two trips to move all of Cheng Mingyue's things back home.
After returning home, the village chief asked Cheng Mingyue for her opinion.
"Yue'er, what should we do now? Do you want to move back to your original house, or do you want your eldest brother or your second brother to move in with you first?"
