Lu family's daughter-in-law

chapter 16

Lu Cheng came to pick up his son on foot.

Before going out, he deliberately changed into a gray cloth that was [-]% new. In fact, he still had a newer one, but he was afraid that it would be too ostentatious. Like Li Nanny's youngest son, it would be obvious at a glance.Although Lu Cheng had never chased after a girl, he knew how to proceed step by step. He couldn't wait to tell her after only meeting him twice. Of course it's good that Ningxiang likes him.

He is patient, and the two lands are next to each other, so he is not afraid that he will not have the opportunity to show it.

When he arrived at Liuxi Village, Lu Cheng went straight to the north of the village. He remembered Xu Huai's directions last time.

Standing at the gate of Xu's house, seeing her and Xu Shouliang's family come out, Lu Cheng clenched his fists, took a breath, and then smiled warmly at Xu Shouliang and his wife: "Anan is stubborn and refuses to go home. Sorry for the trouble." She didn't even glance at the Ningxiang sisters, she behaved politely.

He was born handsome, with the demeanor of a rich family manager or a shopkeeper, steady and generous, Mrs. Li couldn't help but take a second look, and suddenly understood that only such a farmer can make Fucheng Qianjin willing Marry, change to an ordinary and vulgar one, not to mention Miss Qianjin, even the maids in front of the lady probably don't like it.

Good-looking, polite and talkative, Mrs. Li had a very good impression of Lu Cheng, and hurriedly said: "It's all right, Anan is good, he didn't cause us any trouble at all, go, go and sit in the room." Her husband was neither salty nor salty, so Li secretly pulled her husband's sleeve.

Xu Shouliang then greeted Lu Cheng.

Lu Cheng had never dealt with Xu Shouliang before, so he thought he had such an unsmiling temper, so he didn't think much about it. When he walked in, he handed the oiled paper bag in his hand to Xu Qiu'er, and said with a smile: "This is dried sand fruit, the taste is okay, something Not much, Qiu'er, don't be disgusted."

Surprised and delighted, Xu Qiuer happily asked him, "Brother Lu bought it himself?"

But all fruits are precious things.

Mrs. Li was embarrassed to accept it, so she snatched back the dried fruit and stuffed it into Lu Cheng's hand, "My child, why are you being so polite? Take it back and keep it for Anan!"

"Anan is too young to eat this." Lu Cheng insisted on refusing to take it, and took a few steps back towards Xu Huai, "Auntie, I work in the orchard, and every year there are some bad fruits that are broken or rotten, and I can't sell them. , the master asked us to take it home, dig out the inedible parts and throw them away, and dry the rest as snacks, it’s really costless, so you can take it.”

It turned out to be like this, since she didn't spend any money, Mrs. Li didn't force her anymore, but handed it over to Ningxiang for her to hold.

Lu Cheng finally had a reason to look at Ning Xiang.

"Thank you, Big Brother Lu." Ning Xiang nodded to him politely, handed the things to her cousin, and said with a smile: "Qiu'er put it away, I'll save you and Amu for snacks."

Xu Qiuer took it with a smile.

Lu Cheng couldn't help being disappointed, there was nothing rare at home, and this dried fruit was the only thing she could get her hands on, but she didn't seem to like it.

Realizing that the man was looking at her, Ning Xiang guessed that Lu Cheng wanted to ask Anan, so she said: "Anan is sleeping, you can leave after he wakes up?"

Although Lu Cheng really wanted to stay at Xu's house for a while, he had other concerns, and said helplessly, "No, I'll just carry him away so that he won't make trouble when he wakes up." It was really the first time that his son was so clingy to an outsider Well, people are too young to be reasonable, and Lu Cheng couldn't bear to carry a crying child away, so he could only use this method.

"What's the matter, we'll talk about it when we wake up." Li advised from the side.

Lu Cheng insisted on leaving immediately.

Ning Xiang was very reluctant to part with Anan, but she was not her own child after all. Since Lu Cheng insisted, she looked at Lu Chengyi and said, "Brother Lu, go sit in the east room first, and I will find a piece of clothes that Amu can't wear to wrap Anan up. In case Anan blows the wind on the way."

She was as careful as a hair, and Lu Cheng sincerely thanked her, "Then I'm going to trouble you."

Ning Xiang nodded, and headed towards the West Room first, never meeting Lu Cheng's eyes from the beginning to the end.

Sensing her obvious alienation, Lu Cheng frowned, and tried not to chase her back.

Westinghouse.

With the help of Xu Qiuer, Ning Xiang quickly found a small shirt that Amu wore when she was three years old. Spread the shirt on the kang, and then walk to the top of the kang.

Anan was lying on the outside, her white and tender right cheek was squeezed against the pillow, and Fenfen's small mouth was slightly opened, but luckily she didn't drool.Ningxiang smiled, gently lifted the quilt, and carefully hugged Anan.Sleeping well and being moved by someone, Anan rubbed against Ningxiang when she was put in her arms, acting like a baby, full of dependence.

Ning Xiang was inexplicably sad.

She couldn't understand why she was so reluctant to part with this child after only knowing him for a long time. Is he too cute or too pitiful?
When Anan was laid down on her younger brother's shirt, Ningxiang's eyes were blurred.

"Sister, are you crying?" Xu Qiuer tilted her head to look at her, seeing that there were tears in her eyes, Xu Qiuer opened her mouth in disbelief.

"I just can't see children being pitiful." Ning Xiang explained to herself while covering Anan.

Xu Qiu'er looked at Anan, and said softly: "It's okay, although Anan has lost his mother, there is still Big Brother Lu, A Tao can also play with him." Life is much better than cousin Amu, parents are gone, sister She also sold herself as a maid, and she could see her once a month.

Anyway, Xu Qiu'er couldn't understand her cousin's deep sentimentality.

Ning Xiang couldn't hold back for a while, but quickly calmed down again, kissed Anan's cheek lightly, hesitated for a moment, and picked up the sleeping boy by herself.Anan liked her so much, she wanted to hug him for a while, even if the little guy didn't know it.

Xu Qiu'er helped her pick up the curtains, Dongwu Lu Cheng heard the movement, and came out anxiously, saw the son sleeping soundly in Ningxiang's arms, and suddenly realized that he missed his son in just a short meal.

"I'll return the clothes some other day." When he took the child from Ning Xiang's arms, he looked into her eyes and whispered.

Maybe it was because they were too close, the deep words sounded mixed with some deep meaning, Ning Xiang couldn't help but looked up at him.

She was a head shorter than him, and when she raised her head, her long eyelashes moved upwards, revealing those clear almond eyes, with waves of light flowing inside, Lu Cheng's heart was also rippling, and the gentleness spread into her eyes, and in Ning Xiang's view, a man There seems to be no affection in the eyes, which is a bit frivolous.

Ning Xiang didn't think he would like her, but this momentary misunderstanding reminded her of Lu Cheng's ruthlessness towards his dead wife, and she was sure that Lu Cheng had firmly held Anan, Ning Xiang immediately backed away, ignoring Lu Cheng's words to return the clothes.

However, Lu Cheng captured the disgust she showed when she withdrew her gaze, which was completely different from the tenderness when she looked at Anan.He is used to looking at people's expressions, and guessing the reason based on their emotions and anger. Most of the time, he can guess almost exactly, but this time he has no clue.

What did he do to upset her?
Were you all right when we parted at noon?

Lu Cheng couldn't figure it out, but he was eager to know, but he couldn't ask in front of everyone in the Xu family.

He was the one who insisted on leaving immediately. Now that his son was in his hands, Lu Cheng had no choice but to walk out with difficulty. As for her, although she came out to see him off, she stood behind Xu Shouliang and his wife, making him unable to take a second look.

When I came, I was full of anticipation, and when I returned, I scratched my heart and lungs.

When he was approaching Donglin Village, the little guy in his arms finally moved. Lu Cheng stopped for a while and looked down at his son who had taken advantage of him.

When Anan yawned, he opened his eyes and closed his mouth. He stared at his father's familiar big face for a while, then suddenly turned his head to one side, looked left and right, there was no house or Aunt Xiang around him.

The little guy blinked dumbly, then looked up at his father, and murmured in doubt.

Lu Chengzheng got angry, lifted the little guy up, supported his buttocks and said, "A'nan and Daddy are going home."

Anan continued to stare at his father, as if he finally understood, his small mouth was tightly pursed.

Seeing that his son wasn't crying, Lu Cheng didn't mention Ningxiang again, and walked forward with a sullen face and lips pursed.

At least for this moment, father and son are very similar.

After walking about ten steps, his arm suddenly felt hot. Lu Cheng immediately lifted his son up, but it was too late, and his body was wet.

Lu Cheng raised his head in disbelief, stared at his son and questioned, "Why don't you tell Dad if you want to hush?"

The little guy already knew how to make noise before boo boo. Lu Cheng couldn't believe it, but felt that his son wanted to pee on him on purpose for revenge.

Anan still pursed his lips, staring at his father with big black eyes, only his face was red because of the suffocation just now.

Lu Cheng didn't mind, he pulled Amu's shirt to wipe his son's buttocks, and then hugged him back in his arms, just blocking the wet spot.

The father and son ignored each other along the way, and when they got home, Anan reached out to his second uncle, Lu Yan, who was feeding the sheep in the yard.

As long as Lu Cheng is at home, the little guy won't be hugged by his uncles easily. Lu Yan is flattered. When the nephew who has been separated for more than a day finally misses himself, he immediately throws away the things at hand and strode over. Uncle!"

As a result, as soon as I took it, I felt a piece of wet clothes before I felt my nephew's longing...

Xu family.

Amu was still asleep, and Xu Qiuer sat beside her cousin, feeding her a piece of dried sago, "Sister, try it, it's delicious."

Ning Xiang shook her head, focused on mending her younger brother's crotch, and said softly: "Qiu Er, eat it, I often eat this in the Hou Mansion."

In fact, she has never eaten it. Pei Jinghan doesn't like this kind of snacks, and neither she nor Suyue bought them, but she just doesn't want to eat them.

Xu Qiu'er believed it, and ate two slices, wrapped the rest for Amu, and sat back down again. She thought of something, and laughed softly: "Elder sister, did you find out that Brother Lu calls you Miss Xu, big girl?" Call me Qiu'er, but I'm clearly only one year younger than you, why does he call me two? It seems like he treats me like a child and you as an adult."

Ningxiang stopped her needlework in surprise, and after thinking about it, she really did.

"Did Brother Lu like you?" Seeing that her cousin had listened, Xu Qiuer finally expressed her guess.

"Don't talk nonsense." Ning Xiang frowned and stared at her.

Xu Qiuer refused to accept it, and hummed: "Then why do you think he called us that way?"

Ning Xiang pursed her lips, and perfunctorily said, "See you're too short..."

However, this guess took root in her heart and made her feel uncomfortable.

Maybe the uncle is right. When I go home in the future, even if I meet him, I won't be able to take Lu Cheng's car anymore.
