"Twenty-nine, isn't that just the right time to go to my grandfather's house to give gifts?" After listening to Lu Yun's answer, Lu Ying pinched her fingers and calculated.

"It should be able to catch up." Lu Yun responded and picked up a square towel to wipe his mouth clean.

It is customary in Luodu that the son-in-law should send some New Year's goods to his father-in-law's family before the Chinese New Year to express his gratitude. Although the two valves are at odds with each other because of Lu Yun and Xie Tian's affairs, as the saying goes, etiquette cannot be abolished, and Lu Valve attaches the most importance to etiquette, so Lu Xin will still go.

"Tomorrow, my mother and I will go first." Lu Ying looked at Lu Yun and asked tentatively, "Are you going?" ”

"I'm not going." Lu Yun shook his head and said, "I guess my grandfather's family doesn't want to see me." ”

Two months ago, he made a big fuss about Xie Fang, so that Xie Valve lost all face, and directly abolished the two sons. It is conceivable how much Xie Valve hates him to the core. Lu Yun went to thank the valve at this time, purely to make Lu Xin's father-in-law unable to celebrate the New Year......

"It's also ......," Lu Ying no longer forced Lu Yun.

。

At noon on the 29th, Lu Xin really went out of the customs.

Lu Xiang and Lu Yun had been waiting outside the door of the quiet room for a long time. Seeing Lu Xin coming out of it, Lu Yun hurriedly got up to greet him.

Lu Yun looked at Lu Xin carefully, and saw that his demeanor was calm like water, his eyes were restrained, and he looked like an ordinary person who didn't know the slightest martial arts, and he no longer had the same sharp edge as before.

"Congratulations to my father, congratulations to my father." Although it was expected, Lu Yun was still very happy, resisted the urge to kiss Lu Xin fiercely, and congratulated him.

"Hehe, fluke, fluke." Lu Xin also suppressed the excitement in his heart and tried his best to maintain a calm identity as much as possible.

"What time has it been? You're just coming out! Lu Xiang couldn't understand the mood of the father and son, picked up the crutches and smashed them on Lu Xin's legs, eager to break his lonely crutches and said, "I thought you were going to celebrate the New Year inside!" ”

"How dare my son." Lu Xin smiled bitterly to avoid Lu Xiang's crutch, and couldn't help but plead depressedly: "Father, in front of Lu Yun, you should save me some face." ”

"Shit! You are a grandfather, and that is also my son, I can fight if I want! Lu Xiangcai didn't eat him, and the crutch beckoned to Lu Xin's leg again: "You really want to save face, don't be that kind of shameful thing!" ”

"Two days ago, the eldest uncle and the second uncle came." Lu Yun explained to Lu Xin softly.

"Hey, it's weird......" Lu Xin knew the reason why the old man was angry.

"They all told me, how did you say I gave birth to a turtle with such a shrunken head as you?" Lu Xiang snorted angrily, and wanted to pick up the cane again in a huff, but fortunately, Lu Yun hurriedly pulled it from the side, so Lu Xin didn't have to dodge in embarrassment.

In fact, although the old man Lu Xiang has a bad temper, he will not break Lu Xin's leg because he almost can't celebrate the New Year together. The reason why he was angry was because of what he heard from Lu Xiu and Lu Xia - Lu Xiang heard that all the deacons unanimously wanted to nominate their son as the lord, but Lu Xin agreed on the spot, but when he turned around, he used the excuse of retreat to become a shrunken turtle who never saw anyone.

This is almost going to blow Lu Xiang's lungs. In his opinion, his son actually has the opportunity to become the lord of the valve, which is a blessing that has been cultivated for several lifetimes, and it is also an unshirkable responsibility as a son of the land valve! How could Lu Xin let down those who had high hopes for him?

The reason why Lu Xiu and Lu Xia wanted to tell Lu Xiang about the matter was that they wanted the old man to call Lu Xin out so that he could ask him what he was thinking in person!

If Lu Yun hadn't stopped him, Lu Xiang would have smashed the door of the quiet room a long time ago, slipped Lu Xin's ear, and handed him over to Lu Xiu. Fortunately, Lu Xiangping loved Lu Yun very much and could listen to Lu Yun's words the most, so he waited until today under his hard persuasion.

"Big brother, second brother, I'll make it clear to them." Knowing the reason for his father's anger, Lu Xin hurriedly comforted Lu Xiang and said, "Father will put his heart back in his stomach, don't worry." ”

"Can I not be worried?" Lu Xiang's crutches hit the ground heavily, and he said to Lu Xin seriously: "It's not that I want to be the boss of the valve, but my son, Lu Xia and they all told me, we Lu Valve need to catch up, you can't frustrate the big guy's spirit as soon as you come up!" ”

"My son remembers his father's teachings, and I will not disappoint you." Lu Xin nodded heavily.

"I hope so." Lu Xiang looked at the sky, if he continued to preach, he would delay everything, so he stopped talking, pointed to the front yard with a cane and said: "Yesterday, Lu Ying and her mother went to your father-in-law's house, I asked them to leave half of the gifts, you hold on tightly, send it to your father-in-law before dark, save people from talking about long things." ”

Lu Xiang attaches the most importance to these rules and etiquette, in previous years, when Lu Xin was in Jiangnan, every year when he brought New Year's goods to his family, he would give a share to his in-laws in the name of his son. Lu Xin returned to Beijing this year, so naturally there was no reason not to go to his father-in-law's house......

"Yes, there was a father in previous years." Lu Xin responded and hurriedly went back to the house to change his clothes.

When Lu Xin got dressed and came to the patio, he saw that the carriage for going out had been prepared, and there were eight carts full of gifts.

Lu Yun just counted the gifts, and when he saw Lu Xin come out, he presented the gift list.

Lu Xin took it and looked at it, and couldn't help but say, "This is still half?" ”

"Hehe, the old man's temper, my father doesn't know it." Lu Yun smiled disappreciatively: "The more people feel that we are sad, the more he has to prop up the façade." ”

"Okay, then it's cheaper for my father-in-law." Lu Xin just said it casually.

Although Lu Xin was not greedy for a penny, he had been operating Lu Valve's industry in Jiangnan for many years, and he didn't know how much wealth he had accumulated, so he wouldn't take this gift seriously at all. He just hasn't come out of his previous identity as a disaster relief envoy, and he will subconsciously calculate in his heart how many hungry and cold victims these gifts can save.

But Lu Xin can't always care about the victims, how to live his life or how to live. He tucked the gift slip into his sleeve and stooped down in the carriage.

Lu Yun suddenly bent down, leaned into the carriage, and whispered to Lu Xin.

When Lu Xin heard this, he nodded quietly, indicating that he knew.

"Do you need to ask my master to help you?" Lu Yun asked for his opinion softly.

"No, I don't." Lu Xin shook his head resolutely, he was determined to face it himself.

"Then Father be careful." Lu Yun nodded, if it was himself, he would make the same choice. But Lu Yun was still a little uneasy, so he stuffed a black object into Lu Xin's clothes.

"What is this?" Lu Xin couldn't help but be stunned.

"This is a shield made of extraterrestrial meteorite, and the Great Grandmaster can't destroy it." Lu Yun smiled.

"You don't need it, do you?" Lu Xin wanted to refuse.

"Be prepared." Lu Yun didn't allow him to refuse, so he put down the sedan curtain and watched the coachman lead the carriage to the main entrance. Sixteen other coachmen worked in pairs, pushing and pulling, driving eight heavy carts, and followed the sedan chair out of the house.
