Chapter 717: Cutting off her path in the British Society
There was only one fish left from the lunch meal.

In the afternoon, Tang Mei cleaned it up and shaved off a few pieces of the thicker part of the fish's back with fewer bones for marinating.

The rest was done according to Lu Miao’s method of making boiled fish in the past. He used the fish head to make soup, then sliced ​​the fish meat into thin slices, and calculated the time to blanch the sauerkraut in the soup.

In the evening, the young couple stepped into the house one after another, and a large pot of boiled fish in sour soup was served on the table.

"Oh, are you buying fish today?"

Lu Miao put down his things, washed his hands, and went to the kitchen to help serve the rice.

Tang Mei said: "I didn't buy it, it was given to me by your uncle Ling."

"Why are you suddenly sending fish to me? Is there something you want?"

"You are so smart!"

Tang Mei looked at her with annoyance, carried the plate and walked past her to the main room.

To make up for the loss from the previous bitter summer, people gain weight at the beginning of autumn and the key is to eat well.

Tang Mei was busy for the whole afternoon and put several dishes on the long table at home, including boiled fish, roast duck, braised pork and so on.

There should have been something like boiled meat.

Since there are people from both the north and the south in my family, we tried to balance the tastes. As long as they are full and eat well, it’s fine.

On the table, Lu Miao picked out two pieces of duck meat with duck skin and ate them. At first he thought the fat was very fragrant, but later he felt greasy about it.

Fu Jingyou rolled the spring pancake and handed it to her. She shook her head and refused to eat it, so Fu Jingyou stuffed it into his mouth and wrapped it up in one bite.

"What's going on with the Ling family? My aunt hasn't told me yet!"

Tang Mei glanced at Lu Yuanzheng, and seeing that he did not stop her, she told him what happened during the day.

Lu Miao nodded thoughtfully and said:

"Cultural differences are equal to differences in thinking. You can't see anything right now, but communication becomes difficult over time. There's still a lifetime ahead of them. How are these two going to get along?"

"How is your life? Isn't it all your own? Take care of your own family and stop meddling in other people's affairs."

Lu Yuanzheng lowered his brows and pointed at the table seriously to emphasize:

"Don't talk about this matter anymore."

"…Isn't this my home? I'm not stupid, why would I go out and tell you?"

Lu Miao pouted in dissatisfaction, nudged the child's father with his elbow, and talked about another topic:
"When are you going to get some more butter?"

"Are you greedy?"

"Well, I want to eat hot pot... If I can buy some butter, I'll buy more and boil it all at once. It will last for a long time."

"Okay, I'll get up early tomorrow and go take a look."

"Hmm~!"

The whole family chatted while eating.

Perhaps because many households used electricity on the day of the Beginning of Autumn, the power supply was difficult and the warm-colored light bulb above my head flickered.

The adults continued to eat without much reaction.

On the contrary, the three little ones all tilted their heads up to look at the light bulb.

"Mom~"

Xiao Mingxia ran to the table, pointed at the light bulb and said in childish words:
"The light bulb blinks!"

Teenage children always have wonderful ideas, and what they say is incredibly cute.

Lu Miao kissed her and said:
"Yes, the light bulb blinked. Maybe it's tired. Let's have a good meal first, take a shower and go to bed early, so that the light bulb can rest early, okay?"

"Good~"

Xiao Mingxia nodded softly, ran back to the small table, sat down and continued eating in a serious manner.

.........

At night, Fu Jingyou returned to his room after taking a shower in the yard. Lu Miao was reading a travel magazine.

Fu Jingyou leaned the bathtub against the door, sat on the edge of the kang and asked:

"Haven't you gone yet to meet the foreign staff?"

"I'm leaving tomorrow." "What can I do for you?"

"No, I have to go out early tomorrow, so I need to go to bed early today~"

As she spoke, she closed the book and put it aside, then spread out the pillow and lay down first, patting her side and inviting him to join her.

Fu Jingyou hung the towel behind the door. She had some serious things to do the next day, and was afraid that the child would disturb her at night, so he simply took the baby to the room over there.

By the way, I asked my father-in-law for the car keys.

As he was about to go back to his room and close the door, he waved the key to show her:
"I'll send you off tomorrow. You can sleep a little longer."

"Row!"

Lu Miao smiled and kissed him, then rolled over and lay down again.

Perhaps because he was worried about what would happen the next day, Lu Miao tossed and turned and couldn't sleep.

Fu Jingyou asked what was wrong and she shook her head.

Afraid of disturbing him and preventing him from falling asleep, she tried hard to suppress the urge to turn over. She stayed stiff and rigid for half the night before she fell into a daze and fell into a deep sleep.

He said the night before that he would sleep a little longer in the morning, but the next morning, Lu Miao still got up a little earlier than usual.

She dressed neatly, packed her books, and called Fu Jingyou to go out. Tang Mei had just finished washing the rice.

"You're leaving half an hour early without telling me? The meal hasn't even started yet, why are you leaving at this hour?"

"It's better for me to wait for others than for others to wait for me. Besides, if I go there earlier, I can read a few more pages of the book."

Although the possibility of it coming in handy is slim, there is a saying that goes "It is better to be prepared."

"Well, then you buy some food on the way, Xiao Fu, buy some for her, do you hear me?"

"understood."

As if there were wolves and tigers chasing him from behind, Lu Miao trotted all the way to the fixed parking spot at the end of the alley.

……

After get off work yesterday, Chen Qinghai informed Lu Miao that he had to leave from Guoying Press at 7:40 the next morning.

Lu Miao was afraid that something might go wrong, so he kept thinking about it before going to bed and deliberately went out much earlier in the morning.

Fu Jingyou drove her there, and when they arrived at the Guoying Society it was still five minutes before seven o'clock.

However, one of the two cars arranged by the British Agency had already left.

Although the other car was still parked on the side road in front of the Guoying Society, several senior colleagues in formal Zhongshan suits were waiting anxiously beside the car.

Lu Miao's heart skipped a beat, thinking something bad was going to happen.

The car had just stopped and I didn't have time to listen to Fu Jingyou's instructions to get the fried dough sticks and tea eggs.

She opened the car door, glanced at the road conditions, and ran across the street.

"I'm coming!"

When several old seniors saw her, they all breathed a sigh of relief.

"Xiao Lu, what's wrong with you? Weren't we notified long ago that we had to leave at 6:30? It will take us a while to get to the mansion over there by car, and it would be bad to let the foreign staff wait for us."

Half past six...!
Lu Miao was alerted and quickly responded to apologize:
"I'm sorry, I was delayed by something..."

"Okay, let's get in the car. We have reserved time, so it should be in time to leave now. We can talk about other things on the way!"

"Yes……"

The seniors were very amiable and caring towards the younger generation, and none of them had any intention of getting into any further disputes with Lu Miao.

Including Lu Miao, there are a total of eight people on this trip.

But she is the only lesbian.

There were five people in the car including the driver. Perhaps to take care of her, the three senior colleagues squeezed into the back seat and gave the passenger seat to her.

Lu Miao got into the car, feeling embarrassed, guilty and angry.

I feel guilty that such an important occasion was almost ruined because of her.

The one who was angry was that bastard Chen Qinghai.

How dare he blatantly trick her in such an occasion!
This is a determination to cut off her career in the British Social Sciences Society!
