But at this moment, Lu Zhengan also entered the house with two bowls of water.

"I heard Huai Shu say that my aunt is not feeling well, I don't know if she is getting better now?" Lu Zhengan put the water in Song Lan's hand and continued: "Brown sugar is warm, aunt can use it a little. ”

Seeing that Lu Zhengan was so considerate, Song Lan's heart was very ironing. nodded to Lu Zheng'an, and said with a smile: "Last time, the dog Meng Gongzi came to the rescue, and our family should have come to thank you together." However, the old man was not in good health and could not make the trip, and he was deeply sorry in his heart. I took the liberty to come to the door today, and I ask Lu Gongzi to forgive me. ”

Song Huaishu's mother should be a woman from everyone's background, whether it is talking, or being dignified and dignified, it is different from ordinary people's women.

Since crossing over, where has Lu Zhengan ever come into contact with such a person, although he is not timid in his heart, he always feels that it is not appropriate for him to say anything.

Nodding at Mrs. Song embarrassedly, when Lu Zhengan was worried about what topic to find, he only listened to Song Huaishu on the side: "How was the chicken you bought in town last time?" But are they all alive? ”

Chicks and ducklings are very fragile and may die if they are not taken care of. Although Lu Zhengan is very careful and considerate of people, he once said that he has never raised chickens and ducks, so Song Huaishu feels that Lu Zhengan may not be able to raise those chickens and ducklings well.

Hearing Song Huaishu's words, Lu Zhengan, who was racking his brains to find a topic, suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, "It's all alive, and the fluff on the wings has receded, and they have grown a lot." ”

seemed to confirm that what Lu Zhengan said was true, and as soon as his words fell, the ducklings who were scattered by Lu Zhengan into the new chicken pen let out a burst of angry calls.

Hearing this, the two couldn't help but laugh when they looked at each other.

Since Lu Zhengan met Song Huaishu, he has always felt that this person is a little timid, and in modern terms, he is a little socially afraid. Now seeing him smiling so happily, his eyes are unconsciously dyed with a smile.

"Would you like to go over and have a look?"

Song Huaishu used to want to raise some chickens and ducks at home, not only because it was convenient to eat at home, but more importantly, it was also lively.

It's just that the town's houses are small, and there is not much extra space to raise these small animals. As a result, although Song Huaishu has always had such thoughts, he has never been able to make the trip.

Now seeing that Lu Zheng'an has raised so many little guys at home, Song Huaishu is envious in his heart. Hearing him say this, he immediately nodded and stood up.

When Lu Zhengan saw Song Huaishu get up, he also stood up. Seeing that Song Lanshi was looking at him with an inquiring expression, his heart couldn't help but tighten, but he still nodded politely to her.

……

Looking at the little cubs running happily in the chicken pen, Song Huaishu turned his head to look at Lu Zheng'an, and asked casually: "We came to the door rashly today, aren't you angry?" ”

Lu Zhengan couldn't help but be a little strange when he heard this: "It's too late for me to be happy that you can come to see me, how can you be angry?" ”

After that, Lu Zhengan glanced back at the door of the hall, and saw that Song Mu did not come out, so he leaned his head slightly next to Song Huaishu, and said in a low voice: "However, I feel that Ling Ci is much more serious than Ling Tang, and I am afraid that I will say something wrong, and it will not be good to lose my manners when the time comes." ”

Song Huaishu had long seen Lu Zhengan's crampedness in the face of his mother, but what he didn't expect was that Lu Zhengan was honest, he just asked, and Lu Zhengan told him everything in his heart.

Even the frankness that his parents had never had made Song Huaishu laugh in his heart, and at the same time, his heart was also warm. looked at Lu Zhengan's eyes, all with a smile.

"My mother is actually very gentle, but she is not very familiar with you, and she will inevitably pay attention to her words."

Hearing this, Lu Zhengan was somewhat relieved, and then asked him why he suddenly came to Hualongshan today.

Song Huaishu: "The last time I came with my father, my mother wanted to come too. However, I couldn't make the trip because of my poor health, and I always felt some regrets in my heart. A few days ago, you gave me a lot of fish, and my mother has been thinking about it since she found out. She has been in better health for the past two days, so I went out with her to have a look. ”

Speaking of this, Song Huaishu couldn't help but be confused.

Although his mother is not a person who loves to owe favors, he and his father have clearly come to thank him before, why should she come again, and he always feels that his mother is always a little anxious when she mentions the matter of coming to the Lu family.

However, even if he felt strange about what the elders decided, he didn't want to ask, so he brought his mother with him just because the weather was good.

"We're all friends, and you're too polite."

Hearing Lu Zhengan say this, Song Huaishu leaned on the newly built fence in front of him and smiled. "Actually, I also want to come over to see how the chicks and ducklings you bought are doing, and I just happened to bring my mother out to breathe."

After Song Huaishu finished speaking, he was stunned for a moment. For some reason, when he got along with Lu Zhengan, he didn't even notice it when he was relaxed at will.

Seeing that Song Huaishu's expression was different, Lu Zhengan thought that he had something wrong, and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Song Huaishu came back to his senses when he heard this, looked up at Lu Zheng'an, who had a concerned expression, and smiled.

"It's all right, we cut two cuts when we came in the morning. Do you still have leeks in your home? How about we eat dumplings with leek pork at noon? ”

Lu Zhengan naturally didn't notice anything wrong with Song Huaishu's casual attitude, and when he heard that the other party wanted to eat dumplings stuffed with leeks and pork, plus the ingredients were ready-made, he naturally nodded in agreement.

"Okay, I'll go to the back yard to cut leeks now, and I'll go and talk to my aunt."

Song Lan's own visit this time was also to see what Lu Zheng'an's temperament was, and he brought so many things here, and he also had the intention of keeping food.

Hearing Lu Zhengan say that he wanted to eat dumplings stuffed with leeks and pork at noon, Song Lan's had no objection. Seeing Lu Zhengan walking to the backyard with a bamboo basket, he knew that there should be a vegetable garden behind him, so he also followed.

Lu Zhengan: "Now that the sun is getting bigger, why doesn't my aunt rest in the house?" ”

Song Lanshi: "I'm not tired, the air here is good, the scenery is good, so I want to come out and go around." ”

There are not many leafy greens left in the season, except for the rape that is about to ripen, that is, the leeks and the cucumbers and beans that have just been set up.

The beans and cucumbers Lu Zheng'an had just watered, and the small seedlings were dark green and looked very vigorous under the sun.

Lu Zhengan pushed open the bamboo door of the courtyard, carried the basket to the innermost side of the vegetable garden, and cut half a bunch of leeks with scissors before getting up and coming out.

Seeing Song's mother and son standing at the door of the vegetable garden looking curiously, Lu Zhengan explained with a smile: "There are basically no vegetables in the garden now, the two rows of beans and cucumbers have just been planted, and the cucumbers will be eaten in a month." This thing looks small, and there are quite a lot of knots after serving. I can't eat too much by myself, so if my aunt doesn't dislike it, I'll let Huaishu come and pick it. ”

"Lu Gongzi is polite, we have already taken advantage of you, why dislike it."

Lu Zhengan only felt extremely awkward when he heard Song Lan's call himself 'Lu Gongzi', scratched his head and smiled and said to her: "I am friends with Huaishu, and my aunt is Huaishu's mother, so she can be regarded as my elder." You don't have to be so polite, just call me Zheng'an. ”

Song Lanshi carefully looked at Lu Zhengan's expression when he heard this, and saw that his face was sincere and not fake, so he nodded his head.

The three of them walked and chatted back to the front yard, and before they could gain a foothold, they saw a woman dressed in red and green.

Seeing the three people standing in the courtyard, the person who came waved the handkerchief in his hand and said, "Ouch, I didn't expect that Brother Lu's house had a guest, but it was a coincidence that I came today." ”

CHAPTER XVIII

After so much time has passed since the Mid-Spring Meeting, this is the first time Lu Zhengan has seen Mrs. Jiang again. Originally, he was about to forget about this matter, but now when he saw Mrs. Jiang coming to the door, he thought of the fucking law of 'men don't marry at twenty, women don't marry at fifteen, and their families sit down', and the expression on his face froze.

Lu Zhengan: "Why does Granny Jiang have time to come to my house today?" It's hot, so sit in the house. ”

Mrs. Jiang glanced at Song Lan's and Song Huaishu, who were extraordinary, and regarded them as his relatives. waved the handkerchief in his hand and said with a smile: "It's not a big deal for me to come, so I won't go into the house to sit." ”

As she spoke, Mrs. Jiang glanced at the two people next to her again, and continued: "It's not that the Mid-Spring Festival has passed for half a month, so I'm here to ask if you have a match." You should also know that this matter has always been grasped tightly, and if Brother Lu has a heart, he still has to settle it quickly. Otherwise, I won't be able to explain it to my superiors. ”

Mrs. Jiang's words made her very embarrassed on the surface, but it was not difficult to hear the persecution inside.

Lu Zhengan didn't understand what she meant, and nodded to show that he understood. "It's annoying my mother-in-law."

Mrs. Jiang's impression of Lu Zhengan is still good, and she will stop when she sees him. He saluted Song Lanshi and Song Huaishu, then pinched the handkerchief and turned around and left.

Looking at the back of Mrs. Jiang leaving, the three people at the gate of the courtyard were silent for a while. Not to mention Lu Zhengan's mood, Song's mother and son have reached the bottom after hearing Jiang's mother-in-law's urging to marry.

After all, Song Huaishu has reached the age of a weak crown this year, and even if he is not ready, the government will not allow him to continue like this.

Song Lanshi obviously thought of this, looked back at Song Huaishu, whose face was already a little pale, and sighed silently in his heart.

In fact, although she proposed to Song Xiren to find a contract with Song Huaishu who did not dislike him, she was always a little hesitant in her heart. After all, Song Huaishu is already big and has his own ideas and ideas. It was wrong to make a decision without consulting him.

It's just that now that the situation is compelling, Song Lan's heart was still a little wavering, so he slowly became firm. Turning his head to look at Lu Zhengan on the side, he couldn't help but take a deep breath when he saw that he was looking in the direction of the mountain.

"Let's go back first."

Although the arrival of Mrs. Jiang added a lot of things to the three of them, they couldn't skip the meal. And it is really troublesome to wrap the dumplings alone, after the three of them entered the yard, Song Lan took the basket and went to the shade under the eaves to choose leeks with Song Huaishu.

And Lu Zhengan took the knife of pork brought by Song Huaishu, neatly peeled and cut into pieces, and began to chop up the meat filling.

Song Lan glanced at Lu Zheng'an, who was busy in the kitchen, and then shifted his gaze to Song Huaishu beside him.

Xu was because Mrs. Jiang came to the door, and Song Huaishu's face had lost the joy he had when he first came. Although he looks no different from Fang Cai on the surface, Song Lan, as his mother, can't see his emotional changes.

Knowing that he must have thought of himself, Song Lan's eyes moved slightly, and he felt that now was a good time to test him.

"Speaking of which, it's been so long since the Mid-Spring Meeting, and I haven't even asked you if you have anyone you like."

Song Lan's movements in choosing vegetables did not stop, although his tone was relaxed, and even with these teases, Song Lan's heart was always lifted when he said this.

Sure enough, when Song Lan's words fell, Song Huaishu's expression visibly became nervous. Holding a leek in his hand, he looked up at his mother opposite apologetically and shook his head slowly.

"I ......" Song Huaishu wanted to speak, but suddenly remembered that he was a guest at someone else's house at the moment. turned his head and glanced at Lu Zheng'an, who was busy working in the stove house, and then said in a low voice: "Mother, even if I have a favorite candidate, in a situation like mine, I'm afraid that being with me will only harm others." ”

Song Lanshi only felt a tingling in his heart when he heard this, but he still had a smile on his face. "My son is humble and polite, and his appearance is not bad, so he is so arrogant, my mother is not happy."

Knowing that this topic was not good to talk about before Song Huai wrote, Song Lan smiled and changed the topic. "Forget it, I'm just asking, you don't have to pay too much attention to it. With me and your father in everything, don't think about it. Okay, I'll choose this little leek myself, you go to the stove house to see if Lu Gongzi can help, although we are here to be guests, it is not good to let the family work alone. ”

Hearing what his mother said, Song Huaishu naturally didn't want to talk about anything else. Obediently answered, got up and walked to the stove house.

Song Lan looked at Song Huaishu's back and sighed silently, the sorrow in his heart almost overflowing from his chest.

She knows her son best, and when it comes to this, she must not say anything else, it is better to find out what Lu Zhengan means.

……

Because of the help of Song's mother and son, Lu Zheng'an's family made dumplings very quickly. It was just the end of the day, and the steaming dumplings were already out of the pot.

Lu Zhengan hadn't eaten dumplings for a long time, and when he looked at the dumplings with a round belly, he only felt that his saliva was about to fall.

asked Song Huaishu to bring the dumplings to the hall, Lu Zhengan pounded some garlic paste with garlic mortar, added salt, balsamic vinegar and sesame oil, and divided it into three portions with a small saucer before walking to the hall.

At this time, Song Huaishu had already set up the dishes and chopsticks and was waiting for Lu Zhengan, and when he saw him coming over with three plates, he hurriedly walked up to pick up the plates in Lu Zhengan's hand. "How did you take so many plates, wouldn't it be a pity if you fell them?"

Hearing this, Lu Zhengan smiled lightly, and waited for Song Huaishu to successfully take away one of the plates, and then said, "I'm careful." ”

Song Lan sat on the stool and watched the two get along so harmoniously, and for a while her heart was mixed. After hearing Lu Zhengan beckoning them to eat quickly, he returned to his senses and nodded to Lu Zhengan in thanks.

The dumplings made by themselves have thin skins and large fillings, and they are full of fragrance in one bite. Especially when dipped in the sauce prepared by himself, it is both appetizing and fragrant, and Song Huaishu and Song Lan, who are full of worries, also ate a lot.

After eating, Lu Zhengan led Song Huaishu and Song Lan's family to walk around at the door of his house. While eating, let them talk about their orchard.

Although the sun is scorching at this time, standing in the forest is better than having a mountain wind blowing, and it doesn't feel too hot.

Song Lan held Song Huaishu's arm, looking at the fruitful fruits on the fruit tree, and his mind became more active. Glancing sideways at Song Huaishu, Song Lanshi wiped the non-existent sweat on his forehead with his sleeve.

Song Huaishu was always careful, and Song Lan's health was not very good during this time, so he was even more attentive. At this time, seeing her mother wiping her sweat, Song Huaishu was afraid that she would be tired again, so he hurriedly persuaded her to go back to rest.

However, Song Lan shook his head. "I know my body, it's just a little sweaty, and it's not tight. And it's hard to come out of it, so naturally I want to see more. ”

Hearing this, Song Huaishu didn't insist, looked up at the sun above his head, and replied, "Then I'll go back and help my mother throw a handkerchief." ”

Song Lanshi nodded: "By the way, help me bring me some warm water." ”

Lu Zheng'an's house is not far from the orchard, but it is indeed a bit of a toss to bring a glass of water from the yard to the forest.

Although Lu Zhengan wanted to follow Song Huaishu back to help, he didn't have any complaints when he saw Song Huaishu, and he couldn't say anything. And Song Lan's health is really not very good, and he can't put her here alone.

More importantly, Lu Zhengan always felt that Song Lan's move was a bit deliberate, as if he wanted to open Song Huai's book.

However, regardless of whether Song Lan was intentional or unintentional, Lu Zhengan always stood silently beside him and refused to say a word. It wasn't until Song Huaishu walked out of the forest and couldn't hear them anymore that Song Lanshi turned sideways to face Lu Zheng'an.

"Lu Gongzi is also twenty this year, right?" Seeing Lu Zheng'an nodding, Song Lanshi continued to ask: "Seeing that your family's conditions are good in the village, and Lu Gongzi is still a talent, how can it be delayed until now that there is no marriage match?" ”
