Chapter 102: , get off the train
Xia Mingxi laughed at that time: "Dad, look, this uncle doesn't look for a daughter-in-law like you, he must be laughed at."
The waitress snickered, "This child is so funny, look at these adults, no child is sensible yet."
Lu Qing: “…”
Lu Xuan: "..." The urge to kick the child is even worse.
Lu Qing and Lu Xuan glanced at each other and nodded in greeting. Maybe they were the people who were teased together. They still sympathized with each other.
…Yes, sympathy.
Later, when Lu Xuan asked him if he would like to be Xiao Ming's stepfather, the entire state-run hotel seemed to collapse.
My God! !
“What… what?”
"Who with whom?"
…
Anyway, everyone in the state-run hotel thought it was outrageous.
Qin Rou and his party entered the restaurant, Xia Mingxi was already very familiar with the menu, and took the initiative to order three or four special dishes, Qin Rou and Ye Mingxiu ordered a few more, waiting to be served.
After Lu Qing heard that Xiao Ming came to the restaurant again in the back kitchen, he was very nervous, and even went to get a towel to wipe his face, Lu Qing thought it was Xiao Ming and his mother brought him to the restaurant to eat again , I went out to meet and found out that this is not the case.
Xia Mingxi greeted him warmly: "Hello, Uncle Lu."
"This is my uncle and aunt, as well as Uncle Zhao and Aunt Ye..."
Lu Qing was stunned for a moment, it turned out to be Lu Xuan's younger brother and sister, his voice trembled a little: "Hello, comrades..."
The group simply exchanged a few words.
Qin Rou found that the chef surnamed Lu was about the same height as the third sister, but bigger and stronger. Come to the state-run hotel.
Sanjie's vision is not bad, she looks like a reliable man, but the two are not destined to be together.
Qin Rou glanced at Lu Yan and thought that, sure enough, only magic can defeat magic, Captain Lu's "silence is golden" rule is useless when you meet a man who is really silent and down-to-earth .
"It's served, try it, this sausage is delicious!"
, as well as a honey sauce char siew, fried eggplant with beans and two vegetarian dishes, and a bowl of Jade soup.
Lu Qing gave them some chicken cakes, and after the meal, Zhouzhou and Dumpling took a chicken cake and slowly nibbled them.
Back at the guest house, Zhao Jianghong deliberately teased Xia Mingxi: "Everyone is worried about having a stepmother, so aren't you worried about having a stepfather?"
Seeing that Xia Mingxi greeted people cheerfully just now, he couldn't help being curious.
Xia Mingxi is also eating chicken cakes. Although it is a little oily, it tastes especially delicious: "What are you worried about? There are cakes to eat."
"Tsk tsk, what if your mother gives birth to a younger brother with your stepfather, and the whole family bullies you?"
Zhouzhou and Dumpling said at this time: "Protect brother Xixi and not let him bully."
Xia Mingxi was suddenly very moved: "Uncle Zhao, look, I have so many good brothers."
Zhao Jianghong: “…”
The picture of this brother and brother Gong is slightly dazzling.
"Brother will protect you too."
"Brother Xixi, you are such a good brother."
Zhao Jianghong was bored and asked casually, "Why do you say that brother Xixi is a good brother?"
Little Dumpling said, "Brother eats bitter gourd, and younger brother eats meat."
Xia Mingxi: "…"
Xiao Ming thought, I don't want to be a good brother who eats bitter gourd.
Zhao Jianghong: "...Is it still like this?"
He turned around and said to Ye Mingxiu: "In the future, our children will be taught the same way. Look, how many brothers and sisters are respectful."
“Let the elder brother love the younger brother, and the younger brother also protect the elder brother.”
Ye Mingxiu: “…”
"I didn't like bitter gourd when I was a child, my sister insisted that I eat it."
Xia Mingxi thought, I don't like bitter gourd either.
After learning that she was not here, the disappointment haunted him all day long.
Lu Qing plucked up the courage to call Lu Xuan, told her that Xiao Ming and his uncle's family came to the restaurant for dinner today, and introduced them in great detail. some dishes.
—it was a habit he developed when he wrote letters.
On the other end of the phone, Lu Xuan felt sour water in her mouth, thinking that these men are all here to torture her, including the old comrade Lu at home, in May and June When I was eating fresh mackerel dumplings, I ate several meals in a row, and even called her to tell her how delicious the fresh mackerel dumplings were, said that this was the fish that my son-in-law bought for my father-in-law, and asked her when she would find a son-in-law. Bring fish to your door.
Lu Xuan was full of confusion now, when he heard him talking about chicken and duck honey sauce char siu on the other end of the phone, especially the honey sauce char siu, Lu Qing recited in his dull and heavy voice: "I made the honey sauce char siu. I remember you said last time that you like to eat it. Today happened to be the pork belly that Xiao He just delivered early in the morning. We kept the best piece here and marinated for two hours..."
How to bake on the oven, how to brush with honey sauce…
Hearing that Lu Xuan just wanted to hang up on the other side, she thought that it would be fine for this man to talk about it in the letter, and now she had to make a special call to say that she just wanted to eat them alive.
The hungry Lu Xuan changed the subject: "How about my brother and Xiaoming?"
Lu Qing hesitated for a moment, he couldn't think of anything other than the recipe in his mind, but he also heard the chat with the group of waitresses in the restaurant. She praised and praised her relatives more in front of her.
Lu Qing immediately said: "Your brother is a good man, I, I... I have never met a man as good as him..."
Lu Xuan: "...??!"
My brother Lu Yan is a good man? ! !
…
The two chatted for a long time on the phone about what kind of good man Lu Yan was.
After hanging up the phone, Lu Xuan touched her forehead, feeling that something was wrong today.
She thought in a trance that even her younger brother has become a good man who is affectionate and considerate, and will give people advice on who to talk to... Is it really true that Shibei will be treated with admiration for three days?
But why did she want to chat with Lu Qing about recipes and her brother on the phone?
Lu Xuan: "…"
My brother said a lot of good things about her in front of Lu Qing?
Otherwise, why did Lu Qing praise her brother Yitong inexplicably? Could it be that Lu Yan is still trying to find a way to bring them together?
I still don't know what Lu Yan said in front of Lu Qing, so that Lu Qing changed his mind so much, and even made Lu Qing take the initiative to call her. When I received his call, I felt completely different from when I received his letter before.
Lu Xuan raised her hand and wiped her face, her cheeks were slightly red, looking up at the white clouds in the sky, she secretly sighed:
—This unfortunate brother is sometimes useful.
I don't know what he complimented his sister?
Lu Xuan turned around and called Comrade Lu. Lu Zongyi was surprised when he received the call: "What's the matter?"
"I think my brother is really different after getting married."
Comrade Lu yawned: "What's the difference? They are all men who have been married for several years, and they should mature and be more steadfast."
"Don't worry, you'll know when you see you, the younger brother and younger sister will arrive with their children in two days."
"I know I know, I want to die to see my three little grandsons." Lu Zongyi rubbed his hands, thinking that he was about to see his grandsons and grandsons, he was excited and worried: " What do you think about your brother and sister-in-law's relationship? I'm really afraid that they will quarrel. Lao Xu's son and daughter-in-law have left, and the two children are pitiful..."
After the baby was born, the couple had a small fight for two days and a big fight for three days, and they were about to fight."
"I have tried to persuade your mother several times, but you won't listen to them. You can't persuade them. A good couple will leave now."
"Your mother said that I am an old-fashioned concept, and if the two of us can't get along, then we will divorce... Hey, Yanzai has been worried about him since he got married. Xiao Qin quarreled, how are these two going to..."
Lu Xuan calmly said: "Old Comrade Lu, you have nothing to do when you are full. I advise you to have nothing to do every day. Why don't you ask Uncle Wang to go fishing and fly a kite."
Lao Lu: "…"
"What do I have to worry about now? You are all married, and you can't find Xixi if you don't want to. Looking forward to home and all the best."
"I'm going to find Lao Xie to help me write a letter, write a home and everything and post it in the house."
Lu Xuan asked tentatively, "What if I bring you a son-in-law who delivers fish?"
Old Comrade Lu sneered, he didn't even raise his eyebrows, thinking about you, you son of a bitch, where are you walking the dog? I don't believe you anymore.
Every time I say go to meet, go to meet, I will fool your father and walk around every time, who will believe you.
"You'd better say goodbye, I've already thought about your father, let's be like this, the family and everything are prosperous, don't make noise, don't make trouble, live in peace, my mother and I will be satisfied, This person, you have to learn to be content and happy, cherish the good life now, a good life, you'd better not make a fool of me." Now Lao Lu has given up what he wants for a son-in-law, and he doesn't plan to have granddaughters and granddaughters. Changle, cherish the present.
It's good to have nothing to do with fishing.
Only hope for home and prosperity.
Lu Xuan: "…"
Okay, Sanjie Lu didn't say anything, the father and daughter hung up.
Not long after Lu Qing hung up the phone, he was still fantasizing about the call just now, desperately recalling what he just said, there should be no problem, right? It won't bother people there.
He touched his face, feeling like a 20-year-old hairy boy, full of energy.
Tomorrow early after get off work, he decided to go to the cinema to watch a movie, so that he could have a topic to talk about in the letter.
Lu Qing used to be a boring and boring man. When he was in the army, he practiced repeatedly every day, and he could not contact outsiders. He was surrounded by comrades who were tired of training. In the repetition of the day, my brain seems to be rusted, I don’t need to think, and I don’t have much curiosity about the outside world.
But now his life has an accident, he began to pay attention to all kinds of things in the city, pay attention to the surrounding food scenery, pay attention to the parents who are full of fireworks, he will also go to the cinema, to Guangdong Theater...he records a lot of things in words and shares them with another person.
Thinking that another person will read the letter and understand everything it says makes all the words meaningful.
In the past, Lu Qing only attended the literacy class in the army. Now he reads the dictionary every day, and he also goes to the reading library in the city to borrow books. Life has become a lot more relaxed and happy, full of positive sunshine.
Lu Qing's life is very energetic, and he also began to make some plans for himself.
When he came back after watching the movie, his colleagues told him that his hometown called him and asked him to find a time to call back.
Lu Qing called home.
As soon as it was transferred to someone, I heard his mother's voice: "Second, why haven't you sent the money back."
"Tell me, I will send you fifteen every month from now on."
His mother, Ge Dafang, was obviously stunned: "Only fifteen? How will our family live on fifteenth?"
"How much do the other brothers give?"
"They still have a family to support, so you are different. During the few years you were a soldier outside, a few brothers took care of the house. Are you worthy of your parents?"
Lu Qing said: "The family built a new house, a few brothers married wives, and the little sister's dowry, whose money was used?"
Ge Dafang hurriedly said: "The money was saved by the family for you, and you don't have a family now, first help your other brothers and sisters, your nephew, your nephew, your cousin, what kind of It doesn't cost any money, your little cousin is about to get married and talk to someone, and now people are more demanding, and the village also pays attention to the four major items, why should you save a set with him?"
"Your father asked you when can you help your cousin and let him also work in a state-run hotel. Your third uncle is gone, and it's not easy for others..."
Lu Qing: "I will not send money from this month."
"Should the family return my pension and other money to me?"
Ge Dafang said: "What are you in a hurry, you are trying to kill your mother, and I will definitely scold you for being a **** head when you come back."
"Our family has long since separated. Several brothers embezzled my money. I wrote an IOU before. When I go back and collect the debt, don't blame me for being rude."
Ge Dafang said: "You dare!"
Call me."
"If I don't transfer the money next month, I will take my kitchen knife back to my hometown. You know I have seen blood. If the money is not returned, men and women will shave their heads and eat feces. Whoever comes up and persuades me to cut whoever... If the trouble gets bigger, I will sue them for embezzling the pensions of veterans with disabilities, you can decide."
…
Qin Rou and his party got on the train to Lu Province, and bought six sleeper tickets, which happened to be in the same carriage, and the six shops opposite, Zhouzhou and dumplings got on The train, especially in high spirits, crawled around like a caterpillar.
They also don't want to stay in the bottom bunk, "Be high! Sleep high!"
"High!"
Zhouzhou and Dumpling were arguing about going to the top bunk, and Lu Yan carried the two little guys to the top, "Be careful not to fall."
"Hehe..." The two stinky brats grabbed the fence and probed out to see their mother underneath.
After Lu Yan accompanied the brothers to spend their energy, the two little cubs fell asleep with each other in their arms. Lu Yan carried them to the bottom bunk, and the two brothers slept on each other. He clenched his fists and slept very sweetly.
Mother Qin Rou had already slept in the middle bunk as a dead pig.
Zhao Jianghong and his wife next door, one sleeps in the middle bunk and the other sleeps in the bottom bunk. Xia Mingxi, who occupies the top bunk alone, also slept very deeply.
Lu Yan stood up, his two sons slept soundly on the bottom bunk, he half-bent over to look at Qin Rou sleeping on the middle bunk.
The thin, long and upturned eyelashes twitched slightly as they breathed together.
—this is his daughter-in-law.
He will take his wife and son back to his hometown.
Lu Yan's eyes filled with doting tenderness, he kissed her cheek and covered her with the blanket on her stomach.
Lu Yan was about to sit on the lower bunk, guarding his two sons for a nap, when he turned around, he saw Zhao Jianghong looking at him with his chin in his hand.
Zhao Jianghong's expression is very strange.
Lu Yan: "…"
A **** flashed in his heart, he knew he shouldn't have gone back with this guy.
Zhao Jianghong sighed and sighed. He sat up and whispered to Lu Yan, "I've only seen you in your house a few times before, getting along with your son."
"After spending two or three days together, I suddenly realized that you are really a father."
Lu Yan said indifferently: "If you have a problem with your eyes, you can go to the hospital for treatment."
"To be honest, I'm feeling more and more emotional now, time is not forgiving, in a flash, we are all at this age, and we are all thirty. There is a saying in the ancients, thirty And stand…”
Lu Yan said: "Attention, you are thirty, I am twenty-nine."
"Aren't they all the same? Can you please interrupt me less? I still remember when our school held a kite flying competition, and I was the only one who brought a kite to school, no schoolbag, and was scolded by the teacher. Half dead, you're still smiling..."
"This time flies so fast, when I have children and daughters in the future, the children will all grow up, and we will become old men."
"Go fishing together."
"The old man in our family, in addition to fishing every day, has to throw a few kites at the end of the year..."
"What about you, by that time you, old man Lu, will probably be at home worrying about your two sons not getting married every day, and jumping with anger at home, saying that these two **** don't listen to your work arrangements, nor listen to you. Arrange the object, you want to go east, they want to go west, you want to go west, they want to go east..."
Lu Yan raised his eyebrows: "Are you my son?"
Zhao Jianghong: “…”
Lu Yan patted him on the shoulder: "It's not easy for your dad to be at home, you go back with your partner and spend more time with Uncle Zhao, lest he jumps every day and the old man gets more angry, Bad body."
Zhao Jianghong: “…”
You really want to **** me off, Lu Yan.
"The good sad atmosphere has been mixed up for you."
Lu Yan smiled brightly: "I'm a young man in my twenties, I won't hurt the spring and autumn with you."
"Make a face, Lu Yan."
The train was heading north all the way. Zhao Jianghong and Ye Mingxiu got off at the station first. Lu Yan and Qin Rou took their children and got off at Jiaodao Railway Station.
August is the height of summer, but the temperature here is very comfortable, there is no sweltering heat from the stove in the middle, and several places where the train passes by halfway are gushing vigorously. The heat wave, and now I get off the train on Jiaodao, I just feel that the temperature is particularly pleasant, the wind is very strong, and it is very comfortable to blow on my face.
Learning that the younger son's family was coming, Lu Zongyi and Jiang Ping came to the train station to pick him up.
"Grandma and grandpa!" The eldest cousin's voice was the loudest.
"Grandpa and Grandma!" The brothers Zhouzhou and Dumpling shouted with a little milky voice.
"Xixi, she has grown taller, thinner and stronger."
Lu Zongyi and Jiang Ping hold a child each, "How good, grandpa and grandma's good grandson, come and tell grandpa, who is Zhouzhou and who is dumpling?"
Little Dumpling said, "I'm Zhouzhou!"
No matter what, take your brother's place first.
"Oh, it's my brother, his voice is so loud."
Brother Zhouzhou rubbed against Grandma's arms and said softly, "Grandma, I'm a little dumpling..."
"Hey, good dumplings, grandma will make dumplings for you later."
"Give our little dumplings the biggest dumplings."
Lu Yan and Qin Rou: "…"
Old Comrade Lu stared at the child in his arms and looked at Dumpling, he suddenly said, "My grandson, why does Grandpa think you are Dumpling?"
Dumpling: "...Grandpa?"
Little Dumpling froze for a moment, but it was discovered that something was wrong so quickly.
Qin Rou and Lu Yan glanced at each other, both of them were a little surprised. I didn't expect that after not seeing each other for such a long time, Lu Zongyi could still distinguish Zhouzhou and Dumplings.
"I'm kidding you, silly Zhouzhou." Comrade Lu grinned.
The guilty little dumpling: "…"
He turned his head to look at his brother in grandma's arms, and couldn't help but said, "Hey..."
The werewolf exploded.
He was afraid of being caught by grandpa to eat grandma's Yikusi beet.
It's better to be a younger brother.
Lu Zongyi's eyebrows trembled: "Tell grandpa, who is Zhouzhou and who is dumpling?"
Little Dumpling said subconsciously, "I am Zhouzhou!"
Comrade Lu: “…”
Jiang Ping: “…”
Qin Rou: “…”
Lu Yan: "…"
"Look at these two children, it's really fun, take them back and let the old king next door recognize them, who is the elder brother and who is the younger brother."
