Chapter 346: Reward
Lu Ren's narration of Yuan Dou still carries his thoughts, from his point of view, everything he does is right, he is a responsible husband and a conscientious deputy mayor, but the right thing is not necessarily good, especially from Lu Xiaoxia's point of view, he is not a good father, he failed to take into account his daughter's feelings and did not participate in his daughter's growth. He understands these now, but it takes time to make up for it, and from his concession this time, it is enough to see that he began to care about his daughter and began to pay attention to her feelings. That's a good thing, but it's a little late.
Lu Ren is very grateful to Yuan Dou, he thinks that it was Yuan Dou's appearance that made his daughter start to become normal, become lively, make friends with normal people, and bid farewell to her former fox friends and dogs. Yuan Dou doesn't think that these are his own credits, in Yuan Dou's opinion, Lu Xiaoxia was originally a good girl, but the previous path went astray because no one led her. But now it's different, with Lian Yan and Ye Xi, people who also value feelings to make friends, Lu Xiaoxia has embarked on the right path from the beginning.
Yuan Dou and Lu Ren chatted for a long time, from noon to evening, most of the bottle of wine on the coffee table fell into Lu Ren's stomach, and Yuan Dou only drank one glass. Lu Ren talked about him and Lu Xiaoxia calmly, and the feelings in his language were very light, but Yuan Dou listened very seriously. The father's feelings for his daughter are in this bland sentence, although there are no waves, but the undercurrent is turbulent, the slightly wrinkled eyebrows, the gently trembling hands, the changing sitting posture, and the pauses from time to time fall into the memory, Yuan Dou observed that Lu Ren's small movements did not seem confused, Yuan Dou knew very well, that is, Lu Ren's love for Lu Xiaoxia, was her reluctance and concern, and now with the memories, it was pushed to Yuan Dou. Although Lu Ren didn't say it, Yuan Dou felt that he hoped that Yuan Dou loved her more than him, and hoped that Yuan Dou would not ignore her feelings, and he was entrusting Lu Xiaoxia.
The housekeeper's knock on the door interrupted the communication between the two, Lu Ren stood up and patted Yuan Dou on the shoulder, and said, "I have said everything that should be said, you must not live up to my expectations, I appreciate you, what you said that day is still in my ears, you are a person worthy of trust, I am a little worried about my daughter handing over to you, but I am very relieved, for my daughter, I hope you can think about it more, okay, let's go to dinner together." ”
Yuan Dou knows his situation very well, for ordinary people, he is indeed not a person worthy of trust, but Lu Xiaoxia chose himself, Lu Ren's hesitation and contradiction Yuan Dou realized, for Lu Xiaoxia, Yuan Dou nodded firmly, and said, "Leave it to me!" ”
During the meal, Yuan Dou met Lu Xiaoxia's mother, compared to the first meeting, after meeting again, Lu Xiaoxia's mother had less hostility in her eyes and more scrutiny, and the tension that disappeared after chatting with Lu Ren appeared again when facing Lu Xiaoxia's mother. Yuan Dou cares very much about what Lu Xiaoxia's parents think of him, his father has passed, and the next step is his mother.
At the dining table, Yuan Dou behaved very steadily, sat upright, ate carefully, and some small habits were restrained today, thanks to his mother's education, this is not too difficult. After eating, Yuan Dou pulled Lu Xiaoxia aside and asked, "Your mother has been watching me during the meal, which makes me nervous to death, how is it, is your mother satisfied?" ”
"Okay, right?" Lu Xiaoxia said.
"What do you mean it's okay, what did your mother tell you?" Yuan Dou asked.
"I didn't say anything, I just asked about your situation, and I already picked it out, but my mother seems to be a little dissatisfied with you." Lu Xiaoxia said.
"Don't lie to me, I don't have any advantages, in your mother's eyes, I have shortcomings all over my body, right? I've already done it with your father, and your mother will hand it over to you, I have to go to school tomorrow, and I'm going back now, the biggest difficulty is Lian Yan, I'll go back to explore the wind first, do you think it's okay? Yuan Dou said.
"No, of course not, I'll go back with you." Lu Xiaoxia said.
"And what about your mother?" Yuan Dou asked.
"Don't worry, I've already told her about us, and she won't object, but you have to take care of it in the future." Lu Xiaoxia said.
"Is that so? How do I feel that she is very upset about looking at me? Yuan Dou said.
"Nonsense, can she be happy that you cheated her daughter away? Let's go, let's go say hello together, and then go back to the martial arts hall. Lu Xiaoxia said.
It is said that the mother-in-law looks at her son-in-law, and the more she looks at it, the more she is happy, Yuan Dou only sees horizontal eyebrows and vertical eyes, feels that her scalp is numb, and finally left Lu Xiaoxia's house, Yuan Dou let out a sigh of relief, and said to Lu Xiaoxia, "It's so difficult!" ”
"Don't be afraid, isn't this me, as long as I like you, my mother will definitely not hate you, I just can't accept it at first, and it will be fine after a while." Lu Xiaoxia said.
"I can't accept anything, I'm afraid you will have contradictions." Yuan Dou said.
"It's not going to happen, let's go." Lu Xiaoxia said.
In the past two days, Lian Yan has been sending messages to Yuan Dou, but Yuan Dou is ashamed and always perfunctory, but fortunately, Lian Yan did not pursue it too much, when Yuan Dou and Lu Xiaoxia returned to the martial arts hall, Lian Yan welcomed the two very happily, which made Yuan Dou scratch his head and smile bitterly. Yuan Dou wanted to tell Lian Yan directly, but Lu Xiaoxia's eyes stopped Yuan Dou.
After returning to the room, Yuan Dou received a short message from Lu Xiaoxia, she asked Yuan Dou to delay for a few days, and she had to tell Lian Yan slowly. Yuan Dou felt that it was unnecessary, but since Lu Xiaoxia wanted to do this, he could only listen to her. What Yuan Dou is most worried about is that Lian Yan will let him choose one of the two, as long as this is not the case, everything else is easy to say. Yuan Dou was lying on the bed after washing, it was still early, and he couldn't sleep, when suddenly there was a knock on the door.
"Knock knock!"
Opening the door, Lian Yan stood at the door, holding a large plate in his hand, with a few plates of snacks on it, Yuan Dou dodged Lian Yan's gaze and invited Lian Yan in. Lian Yan put the things on the table, then turned to look at Yuan Dou and said, "How is it, is the trial I handed over to you completed?" ”
"Trials? Yes, yes, it's done, it should be done. Yuan Dou said.
"So, Lu Xiaoxia's matter is settled, and his parents won't let her go on a blind date?" Lian Yan said.
"That's right." Yuan Dou said.
"Well, let's try the snacks I made!" Lian Yan said.
"Oh, oh."
Eating dim sum, Yuan Dou recalled that Lian Yan said that he was rewarded, Yuan Dou smiled and said, "It tastes good, is this what you made yourself?" That's what you're talking about as a reward? ”
I don't know where it touched Lian Yan's nerves, she suddenly blushed and said, "That, almost, it's just a part." ”
"And what about the rest?" Yuan Dou asked.
Wonderful!
