Chapter 22 Hangcheng (2)
"If you really plan to marry him, live a good life and don't be willful. When you become someone's wife, you have to look like someone else's wife, and you should be kinder to his parents. His parents are the same as yours. If you treat his parents well, others will treat your parents well." Mother Lan urged in her heart not to meddle in the younger generation's affairs, but she couldn't help but mutter a few words.

Lan Chuning sighed in her heart, how ignorant she was to make her mother worry about her like this.She walked over and sat beside her mother, holding Lan Mu's arm and resting her head on Lan Mu's shoulder.From childhood to adulthood, there has never been such intimacy between their mother and daughter. Mother Lan felt that such a gesture was unattractive, and she never let Lan Chuning do it.

Lan Chuning leaned on her mother, eyes blurred: "Mom, I'm sorry, I was too self-willed and ignorant before, and it was my fault. Now that I have grown up, I am really sensible, and I will live a good life in the future. I won't worry you anymore. Mom, I'm sorry." Lan Chuning said, her voice choked up, sorry for being too late.

Mother Lan heard this sorry, thinking of her deceased wife and the daughter she saw that year, she couldn't say anything anymore.Forget it, let the past go, I am old, I don't have much extravagance, as long as my son and daughter are well.

"Okay, go to bed early if you have nothing to do. Go see your dad with mom tomorrow." Mother Lan patted her daughter's hand and was about to get up and leave.

Lan Chuning grabbed her mother: "Mom, this time you go to Hangzhou with us." This was suggested by Lu Qirui this afternoon.

Mother Lan sat down again, "No, it's fine for me to be here alone. There are also relatives and friends here. I don't know anyone in a big city, and I'm not used to living in a big city."

"Mom, after I go back, I will go to his house with Lu Qirui to visit his parents, and then I think the two parents will meet to discuss the wedding date. You can't miss this occasion." Lan Chuning moved out in the afternoon to discuss with Lu Qirui rhetoric.

Mother Lan thought about it carefully and felt that it made sense. She couldn't show up when her daughter got married, which would make the other party look down on her. "Well, I won't go back with you this time. When you meet his parents and confirm the time to meet, you tell me and I'll go."

"Mom, come with us, there will be someone to take care of you on the way. I don't worry about you being alone." Lan Chuning refused.

"There is nothing to worry about. Your mother and I are not too old to walk. Well, don't say more, just make a decision like this. It's getting late, I'll go to bed first, and you shouldn't go to bed too late. After Lan Mu finished speaking, she went back to the room without waiting for Lan Chuning to speak.

Lan Chuning sighed, but still did not convince her mother.Look at the time, it's only nine o'clock.Go downstairs, go to the kitchen to heat up a glass of milk, and send it to Lu Qirui.Mother Lan just bought the milk two days ago, she doesn't drink it herself, but as soon as Lan Ji Ning or Lan Chu Ning come back, she will buy it for preparation.

Lan Chuning knocked on the door, walked in, and put the milk on the table: "I know you won't go to bed early, so I poured you a glass of milk. I wanted to make tea for you, but it's not good to drink tea at night, so I still drink milk." Right. Just now my mother said that she wants to visit my father tomorrow, do you want to go together?"

Lu Qirui picked up the milk and took a sip. He doesn't like drinking milk, but he won't let down Lan Chuning's kindness.After listening to Lan Chuning's words, she nodded, "Okay, what time do you want to go tomorrow?"

"It won't be very early, you can rest assured and sleep well. Well, you can continue to work, I'll go first."

Lu Qirui looked at Lan Chuning's back as he walked away, but he didn't hold back, the future will be long.Glancing at the milk on the table, he picked it up and took another sip, frowning, he still couldn't get used to the smell of milk.

On the second day, Lu Qirui woke up early, and went out to buy steamed buns with Mother Lan. When she came back, Lan Chuning had already woken up and was setting the dishes on the dining table.

The three of them had breakfast, Lan Mu packed up some fruits, and took Lan Chuning and Lu Qirui up the mountain.Father Lan's cemetery is in a cemetery not far from Baoyang Village. Mother Lan took them along a small path, which is much closer from here, but only about half an hour away.

Lan Chuning stood in front of her father's tomb, looking at the photo of her father on the tombstone.This photo was taken with the whole family during the Spring Festival of the year Lan Chuning graduated from university. Lan's father worked hard all his life and never had a good day, let alone took a decent photo. The only ones are Lan Chuning It was left when Ning took the whole family to take a family portrait.She used to think that she would have many opportunities to take her parents to the outside world and take pictures of them in the future, but she didn't know that fate would trick people.

Lan Chu stared at the photo on the tombstone, looked at his father's gray hair and old face in the photo, suddenly knelt down on his knees, and said silently in his heart: "Dad, I came to see you, I'm sorry, it took me so long to see you, I don’t know if you still want to see me? I know that you will never forgive me in this life, and I dare not ask for your forgiveness. In this life, I did not let you enjoy happiness, but brought you indelible humiliation. I'm sorry, I'm really sorry! I hope that in the next life you will remember not to meet such an unfilial daughter like me again."

Mother Lan did not stop Lan Chuning, this is what she should do.Looking at the tears on Lan Chuning's face and her sad expression, Lu Qirui couldn't help feeling distressed and guilty.

He wanted to go up to help her up, but in the end he didn't move. He watched silently, then knelt down beside her, and silently said "I'm sorry" to Father Lan in his heart.

Mother Lan and Lan Chuning were amazed by Lu Qirui's actions, but they didn't think much about it. They were getting married soon, and it would make sense to meet their future father-in-law.

"Dad, I'm getting married. This is the one next to me. His name is Lu Qirui. He treats me very well, very well." Lan Chuning said, her voice was hoarse and deep.

Father Lu Qirui kowtowed. "Uncle, don't worry, I will treat Chu Ning very well, and I will never let her down." As Chu Ning said, very good, very good.

The three stayed here for a while before leaving.

Because she was going back to Hangzhou early in the morning, Lan Mu went to the neighbor Mrs. Wang to buy an old duck, stewed the old duck soup for Lan Chuning and Lu Qirui, and prepared a big bag of special products for them to eat on the way.

Lu Qirui already knew that Mother Lan would not go back with them this time, so he didn't say much, thinking that he would send someone to pick him up next time.
