Song Qing pinched his waist; this man had been acting like a peacock displaying its feathers lately.
"I've already closed the door."
He looked up, still feeling a bit aggrieved, and Song Qing glared at him fiercely.
An'an loves running back and forth between the two rooms. If she runs over from Xiao Hui's side and finds the door locked, Xiao Hui will think they're doing something.
"Be serious!"
She rolled her eyes and opened the door, leaving Lu Yang to try on the clothes alone. And let me tell you, the clothes were really well made.
On An'an's birthday, they went to the highway early in the morning to wait for a car.
Since they got bicycles, they have been riding them to the city, but riding them in the cold weather is too painful.
And we'd have to borrow another bicycle, so it's better for the whole family to take the bus.
Today, An'an wore a beautiful new dress and had her hair in pretty braids. She stood on the ground, hopping and skipping.
At An'an's insistence, Lu Ronghui also wore a dress today. The three women of the family stood there looking as beautiful as a painting, and everyone who saw them couldn't help but turn their eyes to them.
"Mom, we're all wearing skirts today."
Song Qing was wearing a light-colored, fitted dress, and Lu Yang's eyes never left her from the moment she came out.
He himself wore the shirt that Song Qinggang had made, with broad shoulders, a narrow waist, and an upright posture.
"This family is really good-looking."
"That's why they say you have to find a good-looking partner; only a good-looking partner can produce good-looking children, tsk tsk."
The woman who was speaking glanced down at her son, rolled her eyes in disgust, and blamed herself for being blind back then.
She married the man because she thought he was good to her, but ended up giving birth to an ugly son.
What's the use of being good-looking? Being good-looking won't make your son more handsome, and he might not even be able to find a wife in the future.
Upon hearing this, Lu Yang straightened up immediately, thinking that the person was praising his good looks so that his daughter would be beautiful.
As soon as they arrived in the city, the whole family went straight to the zoo. The animals were quite lethargic due to the cold weather, but even so, An'an still enjoyed watching them immensely.
"Mommy, that baby deer has grown up."
She held a green vegetable in her hand, pointing at the fawn with a look of wonder. When she first came to the zoo, the fawn had just been born and its fur was still a bit fluffy, but now it was very smooth.
It looks like it will soon be as big as its mother.
"Yes, kids grow up fast."
"I grow very fast too."
Lunch was at the state-run restaurant as usual. The whole family loved the roast chicken from the restaurant next to the train station, and Lu Yang went to buy some by himself again.
"Wei Hui, what are you looking at?"
For the past two months, Wei Hui has been refusing friends' requests to have dinner together. The atmosphere at home is tense because of his aunt's situation, and his mother and father have argued several times.
Grandpa and Father went to great lengths to suppress Aunt's matter, but Aunt blamed them instead. She hasn't come home these past few days and even wants to divorce Uncle.
Because of her, there has been no laughter in the house for a long time.
Wei Hui knew that although his father said his aunt was heartless, he would still run around for her after a while.
He had a few arguments with his father and had been staying in his dormitory instead of going home these days. Today, his good friend took him out for drinks during his break.
He was sitting there with little interest, but when he looked up, he was surprised to find someone he hadn't expected.
Lu Ronghui.
What is she doing here?
Thinking about how his parents were pressuring him to get married, and how he had even asked his father to find someone to arrange a marriage for her because he liked her, but she hadn't agreed, he stopped thinking about it.
I had previously investigated a smuggling case in Yanghe Village, and I only met Lu Ronghui a few times.
Perhaps she was quite puzzled when the matchmaker came to her door, and probably didn't even remember who he was. Wei Hui regretted that he shouldn't have been so hasty back then.
His friend noticed that he was staring in that direction for a long time without coming back to his senses, so he followed his gaze.
"What a beautiful girl, have you taken a fancy to her?"
The three of them sitting there attracted most of the restaurant's attention, and people coming and going couldn't help but turn their eyes to them.
My friend stared at it for several moments as well.
"I prefer the one on the left, but she's holding a child, so she's probably already married, isn't she?"
The man was still sighing when Lu Yang walked over carrying the smoked chicken he had bought.
"dad"
An'an called out, and Lu Yang opened the lunchbox. This little glutton!
He sat down and glanced around. Many people only looked away when they saw him return.
Lu Yang frowned. The private rooms in the restaurant had already been reserved for today; otherwise, he wouldn't have wanted them to sit in the lobby.
The person next to Wei Hui pretended to clutch his chest and sighed, "He really got married. What a pity."
Another person elbowed him, saying, "Come on, take a piss and look at yourself. How can you compare to someone else's husband?"
"That's enough. I was just making a few comments, and you're attacking me."
The two exchanged a few jokes and were surprised to find that Wei Hui was still watching over there.
"Seriously, kid? You actually have your eye on that girl on the right?"
"Do you know where she lives and whose family she lives with? Have your father go and propose marriage."
"Aren't you old-fashioned? What era are we living in? If you like someone, you just go to their door to propose marriage. These days, it's fashionable to date first and then get married."
"You make it sound so easy. How can you date someone and they just call you a pervert and arrest you?"
Wei Hui lowered his head, realizing he had actually used that old-fashioned method of proposing marriage in person.
"Dad, shall we go home after we finish eating?"
“You promised Dad you’d only go to the zoo once. Your third aunt is still waiting for us at home this afternoon.”
"All right"
Song Qing and Lu Ronghui were both holding back their laughter. As soon as this little girl sticks her butt out, everyone knows what kind of fart she's about to let out.
"Then we'll bring some roast chicken for Auntie too."
"Um"
An'an ate until her belly was round again, which was especially noticeable when she was wearing a dress. Lu Yang suppressed a laugh and led her outside.
"Wait a minute, Mom, I forgot the toy my aunt bought for me."
Her aunt gave her a toy to pick out at a department store as a birthday present.
The toys in the department store were ridiculously expensive. Lu Ronghui had just started working and hadn't received her salary yet. Under her mother's threatening gaze, An'an finally chose a moving tin frog.
However, she kept staring at a green organ, unable to look away. That organ cost 8 yuan, which was too expensive. Song Qing just wanted to pull her away.
An'an turned back every three steps, reluctant to leave. Song Qing glared at Lu Yang and he quickly picked her up.
But unexpectedly, Lu Ronghui went back and bought the organ. Since she had already bought it, Song Qing didn't want to say anything to spoil the mood. She asked Lu Yang to give her pocket money when she got back.
An'an especially loves that accordion; she even holds it in her hands while eating.
"Wait here for me, I'll go back and get it."
