Cartoonist's Dream

Lu Hui felt that she was forced to the edge of the cliff, and her only options were jumping off or walking forward...

……

(Is it worth being so serious with a child?)

"Ugh--"

(Is this really okay? Rejecting a marriage proposal from an 8-year-old child...) [

"Ugh--"

"Lu Hui, you are sick. You can sigh ten times after a meal. Hurry up and finish your meal and watch TV together later." Li Yushu educated her daughter.

On the day when she encountered a primary school student's confession, Lu Hui rejected the marriage proposal that was ridiculous at first, but then became very serious on the grounds that "I already have a boyfriend, so I can't betray him".Having a boyfriend is a real thing, she thinks she has not lied to Xiao Limu, and she has rejected many people, but today she has been restless for some reason, and she keeps sighing all day long.

(Have I regretted it? Regretted rejecting a schoolboy's courtship?!) She shook her head and quickly got the thought out of her mind.

"Oh—" sighed again.

"Sorrowful, graying head." Lu Yujian read a sentence, and then urged: "Daughter, eat."

Lu’s family—more precisely, it should be called Li’s family. In fact, Lu Hui’s grandpa was also named Li, just like Li Mu’s grandpa.It's just that Grandma Lu Hui gave birth to two daughters. According to the village, the "incense" of their grandfather's family will be cut off in the generation of Lu Hui's mother.Although Lu Yujian lives in their house, he is not considered a son-in-law. If you don't want to make trouble, it is best not to let Lu Wei and Lu Hui change their surname to Li.

Lu Hui's grandfather, Li Shang, and mother, Li Shushu, actually hoped that the family name could be passed on, so that the Li family would not be completely cut off from the daughters and grandchildren, so they have always supported Lu Wei and Li Mu's relationship.If the two can successfully marry and have children, then the great-grandson will be transferred back to the Li surname, and the ancestral graves on both sides are close to each other, and they can worship the ancestors by the way.

It sounds a little feudal and unbelievable, but Pingnan Village is still a village in the city. Every household in the village has its own field, and there are pigpens and fish ponds about a kilometer away from the back of the Li family.Nearly half of the people still make a living by growing vegetables, and some still live in mud-and-tiled houses. A village of 2000 people can clearly show the gap between rich and poor.People like Limu and Lu Wei's who can get up early and rent out two or three big houses can indeed be regarded as rich families.

Although the two families can be regarded as big families, the differences in their parenting methods have gradually emerged.

Before being demolished, Lu Hui's family still had dinner with his family in the way of "eating big pots of rice".Whenever it is dinner time, as long as there is no special event, the family must sit at a table with a diameter of three meters to eat together.The huge family includes Lu Hui's grandparents, sister-in-law and sister-in-law's boyfriend, parents and sister Lu Hui, often accompanied by some relatives who came to the city.

There may be one or two family dinners in Limu every year, but it is rare to have dinner like this every night, but it does increase the cohesion of a family.This may be the reason why the living gap between Lu Hui's family and Li Mu's family will widen for a long time after the demolition.

But now Lu Hui is somewhat resistant to this kind of dinner, because at best it is group building, at worst it is eating unhygienic, she is very concerned about such details.

The most troublesome thing is that you have to watch other people's faces when you eat fast or slow.If you eat quickly, you have to wait for others to eat at the table; if you eat slowly, others have to wait for you to eat.The former will be very chatty, while the latter will make the diners very stressed. It is okay if there is a topic to chat with family members.

But like now—

"Why did Lu Hui sigh just now?"

If you are not careful, you will become the focus of discussion in the whole family.When they ask, they can't answer "I'm bothered by a kid's proposal".

(It would be strange not to be laughed to death by them!)

If you are asked if it is Li Mu...ah, there is no need to ask at all, basically there is no one else who has a close relationship with Lu Hui except him, and you can guess who it is. [

(How would Weiwei feel if she knew about it?) Lu Hui didn't dare to think about it.

"You said it. If you don't say it, how would we know, and how can we help you solve it." Li Zhishu asked Aunt Lu Hui.

One hero and four gangs!The intention was good, but it was difficult for Lu Hui, what else could she say besides bowing her head, shaking her head, and keeping silent, but what she did made the family even more worried.

Just as my sister-in-law's gossip was blazing and she was about to ask further questions, there was a crisp cry from outside the yard.

"Lu Wei"

"Aloe"

"Have you finished your meal?"

"Do you want to walk the dog or go swimming tonight?"

Limu is here!

Meet one of the special conditions for eating and leaving early!

"I'll go and open the door for Limu!" ​​Lu Hui felt relieved when she heard Limu's voice, she said, and ran out of the living room before her grandparents agreed.

Swimming, of course, would not go to the Lujiang River. Although it used to be the place where the great founder of Mao Zedong's country went swimming in winter, and the people of Nanhua often went to swim at the place where he went into the water, Li Mu and Lu Hui Dadi still prefer to go to Jiangbin Road. Gym swimming.Tickets are not very expensive, and it is still national, and the sanitation of the swimming pool is relatively guaranteed.

Besides... the Green River has already begun to swell.

Continuous heavy rain began to fall on the upper reaches of the Yangtze River and Huaihe River, causing the water levels of the two rivers to skyrocket.

It was inevitable that people would suspect him, so Li Mu didn't even read related news.

The mailbox he sent the email to has never been used again.

But excessive avoidance can also cause suspicion. For example, when Lu Wei's family is watching the news of the rainstorm, it is impossible for Limu to refuse to watch TV with them when Lu Hui takes him into the house.It's just that when he was watching TV, he was worried about whether the people living in dangerous areas had evacuated spontaneously, and whether the country had repaired dangerous dams and unfinished dams.

[Is there a sandbag inside the embankment? 】

[Is there a steel bar at the broken place? 】

Premier Zhu asked very directly and bitingly.

Li Mu saw his face on other news, and suddenly felt that the impression at that time was actually very deep, and the memory of that time flooded back into his mind.

Lu Wei's family had dinner three rounds now, and they were sitting around the dining table talking about the news while turning on the TV in the living room on the first floor. [

"Such heavy rain can continue for another week, it seems that there is going to be a flood over there."

"Looking at the local news, the Lujiang River has already flooded! It has risen by more than three meters!"

"Is it very big? I just went up to the embankment yesterday to see it, and it was a little higher than usual."

"It's different this time. The water rose very fast, and I don't think it can get out." Grandpa Lu Wei has rich experience.

"The price of rice, vegetables, melons and fruits will definitely increase, so buy more tomorrow and save it..." Grandma, who is also very experienced, said to Lu Wei's mother.

Li Mu suddenly discovered another reason why Lu Hui's family is prone to prosperity.

They obviously watch the same news, but they can ask different questions. It seems that they are just chatting non-stop, but they have a slightly insightful view on national events.When the flood came, it was difficult to transport melons and fruits to Nanhua City, and it was imperative to increase the price of rice and melons and fruits.Pingnan Village already produces green vegetables for the city, so there is no need to worry about the supply of green vegetables. What needs to be hoarded is melons and fruits.

If they are a little more aggressive and seek benefits in disasters, they may be able to summarize the "disaster economics" of later generations.Of course, Limu does not approve of "disaster economics", but this kind of economics does play its role, and under the control of the state, it can achieve a win-win situation for businesses and disaster victims.

Li Mu and Lu Hui's family are just ordinary citizens, they have no other intentions about the flood, and they don't want to rely on exotic goods to live in the country and make money.What's more, they didn't expect the river to be so fierce that the small bean curd project that could have resisted ordinary floods was exposed.Small citizens have their duties as small citizens, and they just want to spend less money when there is a flood.

Listening to the family's discussion, Li Mu's thoughts also warmed up.

Fruits are exempted. The flood lasted for a long time, and it will not save a lot of money.

Instead, I should ask my mother to fill the rice tank with rice. In the next two months, the country will probably regulate the price of grain and open warehouses to release grain.

These things that have been detected by Lu's family don't need to pretend to be ignorant to the family, Li Mu can boldly go back and tell the family what to do.

A family is full of strength when they get together. They can talk about something together. If they encounter a good opportunity, they can mobilize the energy of the whole family after a good discussion. The lifestyle of the Lu family is really enviable to Limu.

"Lu Hui, why are you sighing today when you haven't heard of it?" The sister-in-law's words caught the attention of the whole family, and they all shot at the ignorant girl who was eighteen years old.

There is no doubt that the power of a family acting together is enormous.

It seems that I heard Lu Hui's predicament today from Aunt Lu Wei...

"Isn't it because of me today?" Li Mu dragged his voice deliberately, causing Lu Hui to feel nervous, "I did a problem that you couldn't solve, which made you feel depressed, right?"

Call ~

Lu Hui breathed out, knocked her own head, and said to herself: Why didn't I think of such a simple reason.It's wrong to tell a harmless lie, and it's over if the "facts" are clarified.

(Looking at Lu Hui's performance... it seems to be true?) The eyes of the Lu family looking at Li Mu became more and more miraculous

(He can do high school students' questions at such a young age?!) The three of them, Mr. Lu, Mrs. Lu, Mrs. Lu, and Mrs. Lu, became more and more determined to recruit Li Mu as his son-in-law.
