Chapter Seventy-One: Would You Like to Be My Husband?
Seeing Lu Tingting walking back with a very bad face, Chen Long, who had already cooked a meal and filled the table, hurriedly greeted her:
"Lu Tingting, what's wrong? Come over and have dinner together. It's all ready, didn't you just say you're hungry? Quick, come and sit down and eat together......"
"Oh...... Good. ”
Lu Tingting responded, realizing that her face was wrong, and immediately stepped forward with a smile on her face. Looking at the table full of delicious hot dishes, he immediately stretched out his thumb and praised Chen Long: "Wow, Chen Long, you are really good, you have made such a sumptuous dinner in a few clicks, you are really a good man who is diligent and capable! It seems that I am not wrong!"
Hearing the sweet compliment, Long Chen suddenly laughed happily: "Haha, there, Lu Tingting, you are too awarded! Actually, I don't know much about cooking, I just make do with it and eat it. ”
"Come on, Long Chen, if you are my husband and can cook such meals for me every day, then I am very satisfied and happy for a lifetime! Then you can answer me now, Long Chen, are you willing to be my husband?" Lu Tingting asked him half-seriously and half-jokingly.
Chen Long seemed to hear what she said, and did not answer her affirmatively, but responded: "Lu Tingting, don't joke with me, I am qualified to be your husband?
"Cut, what do you say is worthy of it, I want you to agree directly!"
“...... Okay, let's stop talking about unreliable things, find a chair and sit down, everyone is hungry, hurry up and eat while it's hot. ”
At this time, the fifth sister had already made three bowls of rice and put them on the table, and she moved a chair and invited her to sit down: "Sister, sit here." ”
Lu Tingting thanked her politely, sat down, picked up the dishes and chopsticks and began to taste the taste of the dishes one by one......
The fifth sister also sat down to taste each pot of vegetables with her.
Chen Long didn't pick up the bowl of rice on the table and eat it. Instead, he went to another countertop and carefully brought a large pot of noodles that Lu Tingting had just eaten a few bites to sit down. I scooped it up with chopsticks and ate it with relish.
Chen Long's move immediately stunned the fifth sister and Lu Tingting!
"Long Chen, why are you ......" Lu Tingting couldn't believe her eyes, and quickly stopped him, "...... Why are you still eating this pot of noodles? I just ...... I've eaten it all before, and I've been leaving it for so long, it should be all gone. Don't eat it!"
After all, I grew up in the countryside, and I grew up from hardships, so of course I know that food is not easy to come by. Think of the days of suffering that preceded it...... How could he be willing to throw away such a large pot of noodles? Chen Long's habitual thinking and practice, of course, brought it over and ate it without much thought.
However, looking at the surprised eyes cast by the two of them, and hearing Lu Tingting's words, Chen Long, who was eating the noodles in his mouth, suddenly looked embarrassed......
He quickly swallowed the noodles in his mouth into his stomach, and then smirked, "...... This noodle has no mussh, it tastes very good! Why can't you eat it? Lu Tingting, you just ate it, it's okay, besides, you should be healthy too, right?"
"Of course I'm very healthy, otherwise I can work as a nurse?" Lu Tingting immediately emphasized after hearing this, "...... But don't you eat this pot of noodles? Didn't you have a bowl of rice here? Isn't this rice better than noodles, and it's worse than this pot of noodles?"
"It's okay, just eat your food. I think this pot of noodles is delicious, and besides, I love noodles too. ”
Chen Long explained, then put away his smile and began to busily eat the pot of noodles with chopsticks.
Seeing that Chen Long still insisted on eating, and he was eating very loudly, Lu Tingting was speechless and did not persuade him again. He moved the chopsticks in his hand and ate by himself.
The fifth sister saw all this, but she never said anything. In fact, since she bought vegetables and saw Lu Tingting in the house, to talking to her, and to chasing her out to find Li Feng just now...... She was watching and listening to everything. Especially just now when she chased out to find Li Feng, she stood in the door and observed carefully. Although she didn't know what they said, she could already see that she was begging Li Feng for something. After all, the fifth sister has grown up, and from a woman's point of view, she can probably guess what kind of thoughts and thoughts a woman has in her words and deeds. She was so glad that her brother could come to the provincial capital...... Thinking that he had spent his hard-earned money to marry that sister-in-law who was in a foreign country and did not understand the language. Thinking that he has lost his sister-in-law over the years, he has been in pain with his two children, farming day and night, doing odd jobs to support the family...... How uncomfortable she felt for her brother in her heart. In the years since she lost her sister-in-law, she has always thought of her brother's painful and arduous life at home, and she is really worried about how her brother will live in the future? Is it just like this, spending his life alone in the countryside? After all, her brother is still young, how can he be such a widow all his life...... However, how could she find someone who was willing to be with him when she stayed in the countryside? So she had been worried about her brother and had a heartache...... Now it's good that my brother has come to the provincial capital, and in just two months, he has met a woman. What's more, the leader Li Feng and the Lu Tingting in front of him seem to like her brother very much...... This kind of thing makes her feel great comfort and joy in her heart now.
However, judging from the two women she came into contact with in the past two days, through her careful observation and feeling, she had different feelings in her heart. The Lu Tingting in front of her felt a little self-inflicted and even obsessed with her brother. And that Li Feng was very indirect and subtle, more of pity for her brother. If she could choose, of course she would choose Li Feng, no matter from which point of view, Lu Tingting and Li Feng are not comparable, the difference between the two is simply one heaven and one underground! However, how could Li Feng fall in love with her brother, this made her very puzzled and incomprehensible. Because with her brother's current situation, he really can't be compared with her...... And this Lu Tingting, except for a little figure and appearance, is really not very good, and she feels that she is not worthy of her brother! Of course, in the words of these two women, Li Feng is as beautiful and excellent as Chang'e in the sky, which is unattainable. On the contrary, this Lu Tingting, although it cannot be compared with Li Feng. However, it is precisely because of her straightforward rectum and difficult to break that she feels that she is a woman in the most real work life. Therefore, it feels like she is closer to her brother's situation......
The fifth sister carefully observed the words and deeds of the woman in front of her brother and her every move, and rarely expressed any opinions.
The chattering Lu Tingting, in addition to praising the delicious food in Haikou, kept asking Chen Long and the fifth sister questions and things like that. The siblings basically didn't ask her anything except to answer some of her inquiries. It's more about concentrating on eating seriously......
However, Chen Long still took a chance and asked her what happened to chase her out to find Li Feng just now, but Lu Tingting didn't answer him truthfully, and casually made up an excuse to push over.
A harmonious and satisfying dinner was finally finished, and the diligent fifth sister immediately cleaned up the table and cleaned the dishes, chopsticks and dishes, and Chen Long was also busy helping to clean up together.
Lu Tingting did not have the habit of cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks and cooking and housework. I just helped wash the vegetables and cook, just to give people a good impression. Now that you have eaten and drunk enough, the inert nature of not wanting to move is exposed. She sat on the chair and only played with the mobile phone in her hand, so that she didn't even look at the fifth sister and Chen Long when they were cleaning up and doing housework.
Soon, the tableware and utensils that I had just used were cleaned and neatly arranged. Chen Long said to the fifth sister: "Fifth sister, dinner has been eaten, you can go back to school first if you have nothing to do." My injury has improved today and I can go back to work tomorrow. In the future, don't come to me if you don't have anything to do. First, I am afraid that it will affect your and my work, and second, my residence here is quite narrow, and the daily necessities are few and leaky, so it is inconvenient for anyone to come. ”
"Well, I see, brother. I won't be here if I don't have anything to do in the future. But don't you have a new mobile phone number, you give it to me, and I'll call you first if there is anything in the future. ”
The fifth sister agreed, in fact, in the same provincial town, and also working in the same company, as brother and sister, who doesn't want to be able to live together so that they can have a good care? But since the eldest brother has proposed it, the younger sister has no choice but to obey.
Chen Long found the new mobile phone that Li Feng had just sent and opened it, dialed the fifth sister's mobile phone, and told her his mobile phone number. Then he looked up at Lu Tingting, who was still indulging in playing with her mobile phone, and opened her mouth to say something to her, but she wanted to say something again, so she had to look helpless. In fact, in what he said to the fifth sister just now, he had already hinted that he would not come in the future, but Lu Tingting did not listen to what he said to the fifth sister at all, let alone comprehend the words in it.
The fifth sister seemed to see her brother's dislike for Lu Tingting, and hurriedly stepped forward and raised her voice and shouted to her: "Sister Lu, I am going back to our school to live now." Where do you live? If it's in the same direction, let's go back with a team. ”
"Ah...... Are you going back?" Hearing the fifth sister calling her, Lu Tingting came back to her senses from her fascinated mobile phone. Looking up at Chen Long, who was standing not far away, staring at her with expressionless eyes fixed on him, he felt that Chen Long seemed to be giving her an expulsion order. So he was a little unhappy and said to him in a joking tone: "Long Chen, do you really want me to leave? Are you willing to let me go? Can't you leave me to talk or go out for a walk?"
Hehe, I really didn't expect her to say this, Chen Long politely refused: "Come on, if you have the opportunity, let's talk about it another day." I'm going to work the morning shift tomorrow, and with my injury, I want to rest early. If there's nothing to do, you'd better go back first. ”
Chen Long's attitude and speech were obvious, and Lu Tingting didn't force her to stay anymore after hearing it. So she deliberately pretended to be unhappy and coquettish, stood up and responded to the fifth sister: "Okay, sister, let's go back together." Your brother doesn't seem to welcome me, so I don't have to stay here. ”
After Lu Tingting finished speaking, she gagged and glanced at Long Chen, picked up her small bag casually, and deliberately pretended to be angry and strode out first, without even looking back.
Chen Long could see that she was deliberately coquettish to test herself, and he vaguely felt in his heart that this woman was obviously throwing the hydrangea of love to him today, but he didn't seem to be ready to accept it......
The fifth sister was looking at her brother's reaction, and Chen Long hurriedly motioned with his eyes for her to chase her out to see her off.
The fifth sister immediately understood her brother's silent will, so she also reached out and grabbed her small bag and followed her out quickly......
