Chapter 171: Suspected of being an old man
The more Lu Xiaolin listened, the more she felt that what her daughter-in-law said was reasonable, but she was not at ease about letting her daughter-in-law go to such a far place alone as a woman.
"But I can't let you go." Lu Xiaolin raised her eyes, thinking that her eldest grandson's life was not in danger at present, as for what he said about his son-in-law...... If it really comes to that point, she won't be stronger, but it's not sure when she will be strong, but she knows that Shaopeng won't stay in the forest farm for the rest of her life, and when there is always a momentum, they can wait.
"Since it's Xiao Xu's marriage, let his father and mother worry about it." As if she had figured it out, Lu Xiaolin stretched out her frowning brows, and the expression on her face was also restored to its original state, so that Du Juan couldn't see what her mother-in-law was planning in her heart.
"Actually, I can go through it together." Du Juan also had her own plans in her heart, so she strived, "Listen to Xiao Xu's meaning, it is because he can't beat that person that he is threatened to be a son-in-law." Therefore, when Sister Guang and her husband go, it is estimated that they will not change anything. ”
"Treat others the way they do?" Lu Xiaolin immediately understood what her daughter-in-law meant, but when she saw the four children sleeping on the kang, she hesitated a little, "Then you don't care about the children?" ”
"Don't the children have a mother and an aunt, oh, and Lan Lan, although she has a strong belly, it's still okay to take care of her." Du Juan said indifferently, "Besides, it's not like we won't come back for a long time, we can come back in a month at most." ”
Lu Xiaolin really hopes that her daughter-in-law can go over the most, and she is a husband and wife who can top the eldest daughter.
"You make me think again." Lu Xiaolin couldn't make a decision, she had to think about it carefully. Neither her husband nor her son were around. She didn't even have anyone to talk to.
"Why don't I ask Dad?" Du Juan said.
"Ask your dad?" Lu Xiaolin was a little moved, "Why don't you ask?" ”
"Go ahead and ask, it won't be long back and forth anyway." Du Juan said. She had gotten up and started to get ready to go out.
Since I'm going to my father-in-law's, I'll give them a little more food by the way.
Du Juan moved quickly, and packed out two large bags of things in two clicks.
"Xiaojuan, go and come back quickly." Lu Xiaolin told her uneasily, if she didn't know that her daughter-in-law was capable, how dare she let her go out on such a snowy day.
"Mom. I'll be back in a moment, what do you have to tell Dad? ”
"Nothing, just let him take it easy. Don't rush to do everything. Shaopeng's body was very well received by her daughter-in-law, and she was afraid that he would be reckless, thinking that she was still a young man.
Du Juan pursed her lips and smiled, and nodded yes.
The relationship between the parents-in-law is indeed good. The two can be said to have grown up together. Ups and downs along the way. After more than half a century, the relationship can still be so good, it is worth learning from her.
Without Yuan Mingjun in Changsheng Forest Farm, I feel that the atmosphere of the entire forest farm is much better.
Especially Lin Shaopeng's house is the most obvious.
When Du Juan arrived, they were preparing to eat.
"Yo, it's all eaten." Du Juan smiled and pushed the door in, and saw several people sitting around the big hot pot, holding steamed buns in one hand. Holding chopsticks in one hand and soaking vegetables in the pot.
The steamed buns and vegetables are all sent to them by Du Juan regularly, usually. As long as you boil the pot and put the frozen steamed buns on the edge of the pot, it will be soft after a while.
"Why, your mother-in-law won't give you food." Wen Bochen joked with a smile.
"Uncle Wen, I'll add food later, don't eat it." Du Juan swept away the snowflakes on her body, raised her eyebrows slightly, and smiled defiantly at Wen Bochen.
"One less person to rob us, I can still eat a few more bites." Hao Chunmin followed suit.
"That's it, don't look at Lao Wen's laughter all day long, in fact, he is raping." Li Aimin looked disdainful, and the few hairs on the top of his head curled, as if he agreed with the master's statement.
"That's it." The rest agreed.
Du Juan smiled and took out a lunch box from her bag, which was a neatly cut yard of braised hoof meat.
"It's still our Xiaojuan who knows what we like to eat the most." Liang Hanqing cheered, and the first one stretched out his chopsticks to clamp the hooves and meat.
By the time Lin Shaopeng and the others finished their lunch satisfied, Du Juan had already packed up all their clothes and put them in her bag, waiting for a while to go back and wash them down.
"What happened at home on a snowy day?" Lin Shaopeng's face is white, elegant and handsome, and his temperament is dusty, he is obviously an old man in his sixties, but he looks like he is less than fifty.
"It's a bit of a thing, and I need you to get an idea." Du Juan smiled faintly and carefully said Kong Lingxu's matter, "Dad, I want to go over in person, but Mom can't make up her mind." ”
"The surname is He, very capable of fighting?" Lin Shaopeng touched his smooth chin thoughtfully, and suddenly his eyes lit up and he thought of someone, "I used to know a person surnamed He, and his skills were very good, we admired him at that time, and we also gave him a nickname called Chivalry." Later, when the civil war was fought, he was never seen again, and no one knew where he had gone. ”
"What does Dad mean, the surname He is likely to be a descendant of a chivalrous man?" Du Juan's eyes widened and she said curiously, "That person should have internal kung fu, and Xiao Xu is not wronged when he loses to him." ”
"Hmm." Lin Shaopeng nodded, and then said, "If it is really the descendant of a chivalrous man, then it would be good for Xiao Xu to marry his child." ”
"But people want Xiao Xu to join in the family, not to marry a wife." Du Juan poured cold water and said, "I don't care who he is, the person who bullied me just can't do it." ”
"Hahaha...... Okay, well, it's time to teach the surname He a lesson, so that he knows that there are mountain people outside the mountain. Lin Shaopeng laughed happily, "The knight teased us a lot back then, and now he can tease his descendants in turn, that feeling is really wonderful, hahaha......"
Seeing her father-in-law smiling like an old child, Du Juan twitched the corners of her mouth funny.
Subsequently, Du Juan inquired about some deeds surnamed He, and then went home in the snow.
Lu Xiaolin and the others had lunch, sat on the kang and chatted and waited for Du Juan to come back. Sang Chunhua and Du Shilan already knew about Kong Lingxu. also knew that Du Juan might go over in person.
Therefore, both mother and daughter were a little worried, but they didn't dare to show it on their faces. I'm afraid that it will be difficult for Lu Xiaolin to see it.
"Have you eaten them all?" Du Juan put down the big package in her hand, shook the snowflakes on her body, and greeted with a smile.
"We've all eaten, I'll bring you the food." As soon as Sang Chunhua saw her niece come back, she immediately got busy. Knowing that my niece goes to her father-in-law's, she won't stay for dinner at any time, so. Meals were reserved early in the morning.
Du Juan first looked at the kang, a few boys were sleeping on their backs, she smiled and began to take the chopsticks handed over by her aunt to eat.
Eat and drink. Du Shilan put out a set of tea sets and began to make tea.
Du Shilan doesn't have to work now, and she can't do heavy work, so she took the opportunity to learn various skills from Lu Xiaolin. Especially when it comes to etiquette. Because she heard the young lady say that they will definitely return to the capital in the future, then they will deal with some people with status when the time comes, and they can't lose the face of the Du family.
Fortunately, Du Shilan is okay with a belly, learning some things, but it can also play a role in prenatal education.
"Lan Lan is much more skilled now, it seems. In addition to diligence, many things need to be practiced to make perfect. Lu Xiaolin smiled slightly, and looked at Du Shilan's complicated formalities to make kung fu tea.
"That's also what you taught well, Sister, otherwise where would she have these skills." Sang Chunhua smiled. Now it seems that the girl has come out of the previous marriage, and she looks mature and sensible a lot.
Lu Xiaolin smiled and took the teacup handed over by Du Shilan's hands, took a sip slightly, and then nodded, "Yes, the timing is very good this time, the tea soup is clear, mellow and fragrant." ”
Receiving Lu Xiaolin's praise, Du Shilan was very happy, but she had a gentle and supple expression on her face. smiled faintly at everyone, and distributed the other cups of tea on the table to her mother and young lady.
Du Juan watched Lan Lan's performance funny, it seems that her mother-in-law taught Lan Lan a lot of things, otherwise the girl would have been chattering a long time ago, how could she not be as proud and disgraced as she is now?
"Mom, Dad said that the surname He may be someone he knows, if it is really that person, then it is feasible for our Xiaoxu to marry his girl." Du Juan said truthfully, "Mom, have you ever heard of a chivalrous man surnamed He before?" ”
"A knight surnamed He?" Lu Xiaolin frowned, and then suddenly realized, "It turned out to be him, and the two families are really good." ”
"Mom, do you know?" Du Juan was very curious.
"I haven't seen him, but your dad will often mention him, and he has been teased by that man several times, and every time he is teased, it makes your dad's teeth itch, but he will unconsciously stick to it afterwards." Lu Xiaolin smiled and said, "Did he promise to let you go over and let you clean up the descendants of that chivalrous man?" ”
"Mom, you really know Dad, he really decided that."
"That's it, since he agreed, that person is likely to be the offspring of me and your dad when we were young, you can go and meet us on our behalf, I haven't heard from him for many years." Lu Xiaolin was a little emotional as she spoke.
"Then I'll go to my eldest sister's house later."
"Make a call to Xiao Jiang, please ask him to go to your eldest sister's house and say it, and let your eldest sister and her husband come over." Lu Xiaolin felt that the eldest daughter and his wife should be allowed to come to her, and the few of them would discuss it carefully, so as to save the time to be blind.
"Okay, then I'll call."
As soon as Du Juan left, Sang Chunhua asked, "Xiao Juan, are you going to Xiao Xu's to support him?" ”
"Big sister, Xiaojuan is capable at home." Lu Xiaolin pulled Sang Chunhua and said a little embarrassed, "There is no news about the mission of the Aijun until now, and Shaopengwo Forest Farm doesn't know when it will be able to return to Beijing, and now it can only rely on Xiaojuan to support the scene." ”
"What are you talking about, isn't Xiaojuan your Lin family's daughter-in-law, working for the Lin family is what she should do." Sang Chunhua didn't think there was anything, anyway, she knew that her niece was very capable, and it wouldn't be her who suffered, "Besides, how can I look at that girl and want to leave immediately?" ”
"Huh?" Lu Xiaolin and Du Shilan's eyes widened, and the two looked at each other uncertainly and asked, "Is there one?" ”
"You can't be mistaken." Sang Chunhua nodded affirmatively, "So I didn't interject when you said it, thinking that I would just help her take care of the children." ”
"Mother, without the pressure of the young lady, can we handle the four?" Du Shilan had a palpitating expression, she still remembered that after she got married, her second sister-in-law deliberately complained to her.
said that the young lady made her miserable, she took care of her for three days, and Ren let herself lose more than half of her hair.
"Hehe......" The three of them all laughed helplessly, and they all had to look at what they couldn't suppress.
In the evening, Du Juan prepared a sumptuous meal.
Lin Aifen and his wife came in the snow, and both of them were drenched in white.
First, I asked what was going on, otherwise I wouldn't have let them come over on a snowy day.
After listening, the couple's expressions were very intriguing, neither angry, but also not happy, as if they accepted this matter calmly, so that Du Juan glanced at it from time to time.
"Xiaojuan, it seems that I have to trouble you about this." After a while, the eldest sister of the Lin family spoke, "You are both Xiao Xu's elder and his master, and no one can fault you in the past." Not to mention that Xiang Bing and I can't take so many days off, even if we can ask for it, we don't have the ability to make people change their minds, although the son-in-law may be that person scaring Xiao Xu, but who dares to guarantee that there will be no accidents halfway, so, you still go, no matter the martial arts, you can take a shot, you can top several of us alone, you go to our whole family can rest assured. After saying that, she laughed first, anyway, there are capable younger brothers and sisters, and there is no big problem with her Xiaoxu's affairs.
Du Juan glanced at the eldest sister of the Lin family unceremoniously, pouted and said, "Your husband and wife are really broad-hearted, and the eldest daughter-in-law is such an important matter."
"Will you?" Lin Aifen asked rhetorically.
Du Juan shook her head, not to mention whether Kong Lingxu was her apprentice or not, just because that kid was her nephew, she would take care of Sister Lin.
After Lin Aifen and his wife entrusted their eldest son's marriage to Du Juan, the two started eating heartlessly, making Du Juan stare at them several times in one night.
Since it was decided that Du Juan would go alone, she had to arrange things at home.
At this time, Du Shikang came back with his son, which made Lu Xiaolin and Sang Chunhua both breathe a sigh of relief.
Although the two knew that Du Juan was very capable, how could a young woman go out alone to reassure her family. Now it's okay, with Du Shikang, then they can rest assured.
"You don't know how to send me a telegram, or I'll be back sooner." Du Shikang snorted and drank the hot soup in the bowl, feeling that the air here in Xiaojuan still smelled good. In the past few months in his hometown, he was really depressed enough, and he couldn't wait to fly back immediately. (To be continued.) )
