Chapter Forty-Nine: A Bumpy Road to Love
"Zhengqiang, you're not too young, it's time for you to handle your marriage." Lu Yonghui said calmly, looking directly at his son Lu Zhengqiang.
Lu Zhengqiang looked at his father Lu Yonghui expectantly, thinking that his father Lu Yonghui would support him, but the following words made Lu Zhengqiang's heart cold to the bottom.
"Lao Jiang's family has a granddaughter, who is the same age as Zhengqiang, or make an appointment this weekend and have a meal for the two of them." Lu Yonghui said unquestionably, those eyes had no emotion, as if they were giving orders.
Lu Zhengqiang looked at his grandparents, his parents, four people, eight eyes, no previous care, love, only disappointment, could it be that he made an unforgivable mistake by marrying an ordinary woman.
"This is the first time I've not done what you've arranged, so can't you promise me? Just let me do what I want, and I'll do everything else at your disposal. Lu Zhengqiang didn't want to fall out with his family, but he wasn't ready to compromise either. Is power so important to them, and is affection a dispensable thing? It's good that the two parents can see each other once a month, even if they meet, they have nothing to say, is this the way of husband and wife? Growing up in such a family, although there is no shortage of food and clothing, but people are indifferent, why don't you want to follow their arrangement and marry a person who has no feelings. Rather than having a cold marriage, it is better not to get married.
Lu Zhengqiang has been a good child since he was a child, independent, motivated, didn't let the family worry about it, and has always followed the path planned by the family, but in the matter of marriage, he disobeyed the family's arrangement, which made the old man Lu, who has always been intimate, very intolerable.
Mrs. Lu is a woman in the end, so she hurriedly haha: "Let's not talk about this matter first, let's observe it for a while." β
Carrying Lu Zhengqiang's back, he gave Old Man Lu, who was on the verge of anger, a look not to speak, and Wang Qianqian also knew that this matter could not be forced. Wang Qianqian knows this son very well, either she doesn't say it, or she is ready to fight for a long time, and she won't give up until she reaches her goal.
"Yes, Dad, Mom, let's find out what kind of person Bai Han is." Wang Qianqian also woke up from the dazed moment just now, and she couldn't force it.
Lu Zhengqiang looked at his grandmother and mother gratefully, and said, "As long as you get along for a while, you will know why I like her." β
"It's not early, Zhengqiang, you go back, it's not good for Qin Lao to ask for leave, let's all calm down and think about how to deal with this problem?" Mrs. Lu pulled the hair on her forehead, wanting to ease the tense atmosphere in the room.
Lu Zhengqiang knew that he couldn't be reckless, nodded, and prepared to leave, giving his family a little buffer time.
"Thank you, grandma, I'm serious, I hope you can think about it too." Lu Zhengqiang stood up, bowed to the elders, and finally took the first step, although it was very difficult, but he must persevere, and work hard for the happiness of himself, Bai Han, and Bai Ling.
Out of the door, Lu Zhengqiang turned around and looked at the big yard, although it was very connotative, it still gave people a cold feeling, and couldn't help but think of a poem "How deep is the courtyard?" There is no answer to this, and there is no answer to it.
Although Wang Qianqian is almost fifty years old, she has been working in the office for a long time, so she looks much younger than the average person, less than forty. After seeing Lu Zhengqiang go out, he asked impatiently: "Mom, are you really going to agree to Zhengqiang to marry a married woman?"
Mrs. Lu's face was not good, but after decades of precipitation, Mrs. Lu did not blow up like Wang Qianqian, took a sip of tea, and said slowly: "How could I agree to this matter?" But you don't know that you have a strong temperament, you have always been a person who has gone all the way to the end, and since you have said it, you will not change it easily. We can't be tough with Zheng, and if we force this only grandson away, it will be more than worth the loss. β
Old Man Lu is now calm for the most part, and he moistened his throat and said: "Qianqian, you go to find out who this Bai Han is, if you can be admitted to BJ University, it shows that you are not a simple character, you can only win a hundred battles if you know yourself and your opponent." β
Wang Qianqian quickly sorted out her bag, stood up, and said, "Okay, I'll go now." "This is a major matter for my son, and it cannot be delayed. Father-in-law and mother-in-law, who are old and can't bump, and her husband is a member of the public family, so she can only go to the sea to open a store by herself, and the time can be freely deployed.
BJ University, isn't the granddaughter of the Jiang family admitted, let that little girl help me inquire, isn't it? Wang Qianqian came to Jiang's house at night to find Jiang Lao's granddaughter, Jiang Wenwen. When Jiang Wenwen heard the name Bai Han, he sighed in his heart, when his cousin-in-law went to the countryside to know the youth, there was a good woman, who seemed to be called Bai Han, and later admitted to BJ University, it wouldn't be the same person. The night before my cousin got married, she slept with herself and told herself about it. At that time, I was not worth it for my cousin, but after meeting my cousin-in-law, I finally knew why my cousin chose my cousin-in-law.
"Aunt Wang, I'll go to check for you tomorrow what kind of character this Bai Han is, and I will definitely not let your nephew be confused." Jiang Wenwen assured that fortunately, it was Aunt Wang's nephew, if he fell in love with Aunt Wang's son, even if Aunt Wang didn't say it, he would have to investigate. It turned out that Jiang Wenwen and Lu Zhengqiang lived in the same courtyard when they were children, and later separated in the first two years because of work transfers. Jiang Wenwen has liked to be behind Lu Zhengqiang since he was a child, chasing Lu Zhengqiang like a little tail, and has liked Lu Zhengqiang for a long time.
Wang Qianqian touched Jiang Wenwen's hand, the more she looked at it, the more she liked it, and said with a smile: "Auntie, please ask you, Zhengqiang talked about you a few days ago, and when Aunt Wang is busy for a while, I will invite you home for dinner." β
"Really?" Jiang Wenwen has been troubled all the time, Lu Zhengqiang is lukewarm to himself, if he can get along with this Aunt Wang, maybe Brother Zhengqiang will be better to himself.
"Of course it's true, when did Auntie lie to you! There's news, you call me or go to the old house at night, I'll be staying in the old house for the next few days. Wang Qianqian said with a smile, overjoyed, looking at Jiang Wenwen's appearance, she should like Zhengqiang.
After Wang Qianqian left, Jiang Wenwen ran to his room to call his cousin Wu Meifen and asked, "Cousin, has my cousin-in-law ever been with a woman named Bai Han?" β
Wu Meifen listened to the voice on the phone, looked at Shi Jinghai, who was drunk next to her, and felt cold, this man was holding himself again, but he was shouting the voice of the cheap woman in his mouth, Wu Meifen's fingernails were about to break.
"yes, why did you remember to ask this?" I don't want my cousin to know that he is in pain now, he likes Shi Jinghai, but he hates him for having someone else in his heart.
Hearing his cousin's business trembling slightly, Jiang Wenwen asked in a low voice, "Cousin, are you uncomfortable?" β
Wu Meifen tried her best to suppress her voice, wanting her voice to sound normal: "It's nothing, I'm fine, what's wrong with Bai Han's woman?" Did you hook up with someone again? β
Jiang Wenwen asked in surprise, "Cousin, how do you know this?" β
"Humph! At first glance, it looks like a vixen, and it's very normal to hook up with others! Tell me, who did you hook up with? Wu Meifen heard Jiang Wenwen's confirmation, and her heart was slightly comfortable for you, and when she saw Shi Jinghai sleeping dead on the bed, she sneered, the woman you love has hooked up with someone else, what else do you have to look forward to!
Jiang Wenwen felt that his cousin was different from before, and his cold voice was full of meanness.
"Cousin, do you remember Lu Zhengqiang?" Jiang Wenwen wanted to ignore the uncomfortable coldness.
"Hey, isn't Lu Zhengqiang your brother? This Bai Han is really powerful, he used to provoke your cousin-in-law, and he was not at ease when he arrived in City B, so he hooked up with your strong brother. Aren't you uncomfortable at all? Or did you really just throw in the towel? β
"Cousin, it's not that I like Lu Zhengqiang, it's Lu Zhengqiang's mother, Aunt Wang's nephew, and I want to ask me to help check Bai Han's situation at school. Cousin, if you and your cousin-in-law are married, don't think about what happened to your cousin-in-law before, and live a good life. Jiang Wenwen comforted Wu Meifen, hoping that her cousin's voice would not be as cold as it is now.
Wu Meifen disagreed, the Aunt Wang in Wenwen's mouth was a shrewd figure, if the Wang family had such a situation, it would not be Wenwen's turn to ask, that is, Wenwen, a simple child, would believe what others say.
"Wenwen, why don't you use your brain, if it is the Wang family, will it be your turn to inquire? Aunt Wang doesn't have a niece who is also in BJ University, why did the granddaughter of the Wang family go to check on herself and come to you! Wu Meifen said earnestly, wanting to remind Jiang Wenwen not to be so naΓ―ve.
Jiang Wenwen was so shocked by Wu Meifen's words that his hands were covered with cold sweat, he could barely hold the phone, and asked in a trembling voice: "Cousin, do you mean that Bai Han is entangled with Brother Zhengqiang?" Aunt Wang was embarrassed to ask her niece to find herself? β
Although Jiang Wenwen is simple, it doesn't mean that she is stupid, and she quickly understood the twists and turns. Wu Meifen temporarily put her mind at ease and said: "At present, it is inferred that this is the case, a family like the Lu family is not allowed to find an ordinary person, so don't worry." And that Aunt Wang is looking for you because she will know that even if you know the truth, she will not talk nonsense, just because you like Lu Zhengqiang. β
"Cousin?" Jiang Wenwen's voice was full of tears, knowing that Lu Zhengqiang had always regarded himself as his sister, but he had always believed that Brother Zhengqiang would one day find out that he was good and like him. But listening to my cousin's analysis, although Aunt Wang's words were entangled by Bai Han, it can be vaguely inferred that Brother Zhengqiang seems to like that Bai Han. If she didn't like it, Aunt Wang wouldn't be worried at all, and let herself inquire about Bai Han.
