After Lu Chen finished taking a shower and returned to his room, he found that Cheng Mingyue had returned to her space again, which made him feel even more depressed.
Lu Chen had insomnia for the first time, and he only fell into a short sleep when it was almost dawn.
Lu Chen was woken up by Cheng Mingyue.
After Cheng Mingyue entered the space last night, she first tidied up her own space, and then she happily soaked in the spiritual spring bath and read a book.
She also got up very early this morning for the first time ever.
Cheng Mingyue first kneaded the dough and made dozens of pancakes of medium size. Then she fried a few dishes, thinking that she would roll them up and eat them when Lu Chen woke up.
Lu Chen tossed and turned on the kang last night like a pancake. Cheng Mingyue saw it clearly in the space.
She also thought that Lu Chen was so uneasy because of his grandfather's illness.
After the meal was ready, Cheng Mingyue hurriedly boiled loquat leaf juice in the pot.
Since she had promised Lu Chen to treat her grandfather, she wanted to get this done quickly so that Lu Chen wouldn't have to suffer anymore.
Cheng Mingyue prepared the loquat leaf juice and then went to wake Lu Chen up.
Lu Chen didn't sleep well at all, his eyes were blue. Cheng Mingyue rolled her eyes at him and said unhappily:
"I've prepared the medicine and put it in the jar over there. You can find a way to get it to your grandfather. But I have to be frank with you. I'm not sure how effective this medicine will be, so you have to be mentally prepared."
She didn't want to spend all that time and effort only to be blamed in the end.
"Of course. I can't thank you enough. How could I blame you?"
After Lu Chen washed his face, he immediately helped to serve the dishes, and the smile on his face became more obvious.
After dinner, there was still some time before going to work, so Cheng Mingyue put a dozen pancakes in a bowl and walked towards her parents' home.
After Cheng Mingyue placed the pancakes on the table, she pulled her father, brother, and sister-in-law into the house. She pulled out the cloth bag from her bosom and said, "Mom and Dad, this is the money and tickets that Lu Zhiqing gave me yesterday."
"What? Lu Zhiqing gave it to you? Why is it so much? Over a thousand yuan, and so many tickets? He gave it all to you?"
Wang Guihua took the cloth bag, opened it and was so shocked that her mouth couldn't close.
Of course, the village chief and the others saw it clearly, but the village chief's focus was obviously not here. He frowned and looked at Cheng Mingyue:
"Lu Zhiqing was forced to go to the countryside because of his family's special circumstances. How could he have so much money?"
Cheng Xiangnan had the same doubts. "That's right, and wasn't he so hungry that he had to eat tree bark before? He has money but he doesn't spend it. Isn't that stupid?"
Cheng Xiangdong patted his brother's head and said, "If you have money but don't spend it, there must be a reason for not spending it. Why are you making such a fuss? You should listen to what Yue'er has to say."
Cheng Mingyue half-truthed and half-said the general situation, and finally said: "My aunt made such a fuss yesterday, saying that Lu Zhiqing ate and drank for free. I was really angry, so I thought of telling you the truth."
In fact, Cheng Mingyue was worried that as time went on, their family would have a bad opinion of Lu Chen.
She knew very well that Lu Chen was such a sinister person. If she didn't tell her family the truth, she was afraid that they would accidentally offend that guy, and then they would be in trouble if he tricked them.
Cheng Mingyue was really worrying too much. Ever since she and Lu Chen agreed to get married, her family had no choice but to please Lu Chen. They were afraid that Lu Chen and Cheng Mingyue would get divorced, so how could they possibly offend him?
The village chief and Wang Guihua thought about it and felt that it would be good for their families to know.
The fact that Lu Chen was able to give money to his daughter showed that he definitely had the idea of living a good life, and they felt a little relieved. Moreover, his family might not say anything at first, but after a long time, they might feel resentful.
Wang Guihua handed the cloth bag back and said, "Yue'er, since Lu Zhiqing is willing to give you all his wealth, it means he still cares about you. You should just settle down and live a good life with him. Don't be so willful anymore."
The village chief also agreed. "Yue'er, your mother is right. Relationships need to be cultivated. You and Lu Zhiqing will naturally develop feelings as you spend more time together. That agreement will then be invalidated."
Zhang Lan also advised: "What Dad and Mom said is right. Besides, Yue'er, you are not bad either. You also graduated from high school and your studies were also good. You are more than enough for him, Lu Chen."
"My sister is naturally good. She's still a great cook and looks very blessed..."
“…”
All of a sudden, everyone in the family started praising Cheng Mingyue like a flower, trying to prove that she and Lu Chen were a perfect match made in heaven.
Cheng Mingyue did not argue. She counted out thirty Great Unity coupons from her cloth bag and stuffed them into the hands of Wang Guihua, Zhang Hongying and Zhang Lan respectively. Then she stuffed all the food coupons, oil coupons and cloth coupons into Wang Guihua.
The three of them were like holding a hot potato, and without thinking, they stuffed it back to Cheng Mingyue.
Wang Guihua glared at Cheng Mingyue, wishing she could pry her head open to see what she was thinking. "Yue'er, what are you doing? This is something Lu Zhiqing gave you. How can we take it?!"
Zhang Hongying also quickly waved her hands and echoed, "Yes, we can't accept this money."
Zhang Lan didn't want to take it anymore, and even wanted to slap her sister-in-law, "How can we take your money? What kind of people would we be then?"
Cheng Mingyue naturally had her own ideas in mind. She snorted in pretended anger: "Mother, elder sister-in-law and second sister-in-law, don't you consider me as your own family? Is it like what my aunt said, a daughter who is married is like spilled water? You treat me as an outsider..."
"Girl, what nonsense are you talking about? You will always be my precious daughter..." Wang Guihua wanted to explain, but was stopped by the village chief.
The village chief said, "I'll give it to you. You can take it. Besides, they just separated and will definitely need a lot of things. It will be convenient for us to buy them and send them over."
The village chief was just thinking about it in his mind.
Lu Chen has money but doesn't spend it. This money is probably not that simple. Now after this transaction, it has become a gift from their daughter out of love, and no one will say anything.
From now on, even if my daughter buys something for herself, she can blame it all on them. It's so obvious and covert that no one can tell whose it belongs to.
In his opinion, his daughter has learned to be smart from that Lu Zhiqing, which is a good thing, as it can save them a lot of worries.
Finally, the village chief said to Cheng Mingyue very seriously, "Yesterday I heard your Uncle Xu say that you were reading. Since you are so motivated, then study hard. Knowledge is something that you own no matter when you learn it. No one can take it away from you."
After saying that, he turned his face to Cheng Xiangdong and Cheng Xiangnan and said, "And you two, you should also pay attention. Look at your uncle Xu's Xu Dong and Xu Liang. They are so promising and now have stable jobs. And then look at you two, hey..."
