Lu family's daughter-in-law

Chapter 78
The sun gradually moved to the west.

As Tanabata approached, it was still hot at noon, but it was much cooler in the morning and evening than in midsummer. The breeze blew, and the broad leaves of the persimmon tree fluttered gently. Ning Xiang sat under the persimmon tree, lowering her head to cut Anan's nails.She cut it carefully, Anan was trapped in her mother's arms, looking at her for a while, and looking up at the big persimmons above her head among the leaves.

Every time the little guy comes to Xu's house, he has to look at it, except for the chicken in the backyard, which is this persimmon tree.

"Auntie, eat." Pursing his lips, Anan stared at his mother and said, then sucked in his saliva.

Ning Xiang blew on the freshly trimmed nails, looked up at the little guy, Anan immediately raised his other hand, pointed to the big persimmon above his head, "Eat!"

Ningxiang smiled, and coaxed softly: "No, the persimmons are not ripe yet, they are not good to eat. Auntie will pick sweet persimmons for Anan after the persimmons turn yellow."

Anan blinked, then suddenly turned his head outside the door, his big eyes remained motionless, as if he was listening carefully.

Ning Xiang's heart trembled, and she listened carefully, and she really heard the faint rolling sound of ruts.

Is Lu Cheng here?
Ningxiang's first thought was to give Anan to her cousin, who would help her cut the remaining nails, and she hid in the house.But in a flash, she thought that Pei Jinghan would return, and she would see Lu Cheng less and less often. Ningxiang's eyes darkened, she lowered her head, pretending that she didn't hear the movement outside, and continued to cut Anan's nails.

The sound of the donkey cart was getting closer and closer, Anan looked at the gate of the east courtyard, and tentatively called out "Daddy".

Atao and Amu ran out to see, Anan also wanted to go, but Ningxiang held her down firmly, "Anan, wait a moment, after cutting his nails, he will go to see Daddy."

Even if she wanted to stay, she had to find an excuse, so she couldn't let Anan go.

In fact, Anan didn't particularly miss his father, whom he hadn't seen for a day, so he looked over there, turned his head and continued to look at his mother.Dad came to pick him up, and when he got home, he would not see the most comfortable mother who was gentle and cut his nails.

The little guy rubbed against each other and leaned comfortably in his mother's arms.

Lu Cheng came in with a small basket of fruit, and the first thing he saw was his son's enjoying posture, his eyes straightened.

He dreamed of holding her like this!
"Isn't Lu Cheng very busy recently? I haven't seen you for a long time." Mrs. Li greeted her from the kitchen, and said affectionately. She has never been married to Lu Cheng, and her son often comes to play The admirer who is a niece, on the contrary, likes this stable and capable man who takes care of his younger siblings very well.

"It's okay." Lu Cheng looked away, and handed the basket in his hand to Mrs. Li, "Auntie, I picked this up from the ground, don't dislike it."

How could Mrs. Li dislike him? Knowing that Lu Cheng was stubborn, she accepted it after being polite.

"Daddy!" Anan tilted his head and yelled crisply.

Lu Cheng smiled at his son, stared at Ningxiang, and thanked Li Shi: "A Tao is still young, our three brothers are careless, we all forgot when I cut Anan's nails last time, and troubled my aunt You helped take care of him."

Li smiled and said it was okay, and invited Lu Chengdao: "Shall we eat at Aunt's house tonight?"

Lu Cheng knew that this was a polite remark, and said bluntly: "No, the second and third are still waiting for us at home. I'm afraid they will worry if we go back late."

Mrs. Li nodded, and asked him to sit in the room again, but Lu Cheng still declined, so Mrs. Li went in with the basket in order to return the basket to Lu Cheng.

The elder was not there, Xu Qiuer was on his side, Lu Cheng smiled at her, and strode to the persimmon tree.

Ningxiang is helping Anan cut the last little fingernail, but it could have been done long ago, so she deliberately procrastinated and waited for him.

Hearing his approaching footsteps, the man's long legs appeared out of the corner of the eye. Ning Xiang didn't dare to look any more, and forced herself to concentrate on helping Anan. It turned red, like a delicate crabapple on a branch in spring.

Understanding that it was not easy for the two to meet each other, Xu Qiuer deliberately led Atao Amu not far from them, and sat on a stone that was used as a bench, pretending to tell them a story. Cheng was too close to his cousin, and there was no one around, so he felt suspicious.

Of course, she also wanted to hear what Lu Cheng would say to coax her cousin...

"Has Nan been naughty today?" Lu Cheng squatted opposite Ningxiang with his back to the east courtyard, first talking to his son in a dignified manner, his peachy eyes had already fallen on Ningxiang's face, and he didn't feel guilty at all for perfunctory son After all, the son can look at him whatever he wants when he comes home, but there are not many opportunities to see her.

"No!" Anan shook his head, seeing his father staring at his mother, he also looked at her.

Being stared at by the two fathers together, Ning Xiang was embarrassed to look at her. She quickly cut off the last bit of nails for Anan, put the scissors on the ground aside, pushed Anan towards Lu Cheng, and said softly, "Anan went to find Daddy." .”

"I don't..." Anan didn't want to leave, so he turned his head and threw himself into his mother's arms, hugging her tightly with his two short arms.

The little guy refused to leave, Ning Xiang took a quick look at Lu Cheng, and then saw his handsome face in a daze, recalled the last time they parted, and immediately lowered her head again.

Lu Cheng stared at her obsessively, from his eyes to his lips, he was reminiscing about that day in his mind.

What I want most is the land of Taoyuan that has not been explored to the fullest.

It's a pity that he didn't understand anything at the time, and even thought she couldn't hold back after drinking too much water.

After understanding the reason, he wanted to hug her more and more, to experience all kinds of good things about his Xiang'er to the fullest.

"Are you still angry?" Lu Cheng asked in a low voice as he touched the top of his son's head in a short time.

Ningxiang lowered her head, and her red lips were tightly pursed.

Anan thought his father was talking to him, turned his head to look, but saw that his father was still looking at his mother.The little guy didn't understand. He raised his head and saw his mother's face was red. Anan stretched out his hand, touched his mother's face lightly, and grinned, "It's hot."

Ning Xiang didn't even look at the boy's smiling eyes, and turned her head to the other side with a blushing face.

Anan tilted his head and chased after him.

Lu Cheng also wanted to chase after her, but he had to endure it. He stared at her sideways and said, "If you don't speak, I will treat you as angry. Xiang'er, on the night of Qixi Festival, I came to look for you at the back door of your house. It was dark I will come, you can come out any time, I will always wait for you."

After speaking, he stretched out his big hand, and unexpectedly picked up his son who was lying on Ningxiang's lap.

"Auntie!" Anan was upset, and after being hugged by his father, he turned around and called Ningxiang.

Ningxiang saw her aunt coming out with a basket, she didn't care about being ashamed, she stood up quickly, snatched Anan back, and used Anan's small body to cover her blushing face, and went straight to the door of her house, "Anan, be good, aunt hug Anan goes to the car, and Anan will come to play with aunt some other day."

Anan obediently leaned on his mother's shoulder, staring at his mother's cheek with big eyes, reluctant to move away.

Lu Cheng and the others went around from the east courtyard.

Far away from Lu Cheng, the blush on Ning Xiang's face slowly dissipated, she held Anan in her arms and coaxed softly, and waited for A Tao to sit firmly on the donkey cart before she put the little guy on the cart.Anan stepped on the car floor first, and when he stepped on it, he could use his strength. He hugged his mother's neck and wanted to return to his mother's arms.

Ning Xiang smiled softly, spent a while with Anan, and finally coaxed the little guy.

"Go in, let's go." Lu Cheng swept the crowd one by one, in front of Li Shi, without looking at Ning Xiang, he drove away skillfully.

"Auntie!" Anan shouted to Ningxiang before the donkey cart turned.

Ningxiang smiled and waved at the little guy, and then waved for a while, seeing Lu Cheng also tilted his head to look back, and immediately put it down.

At that moment, although they were far away, Ning Xiang seemed to see clearly Lu Cheng's teasing smile, which was gentle and brilliant, like the sun at dusk, warming her heart.

He asked her to meet her on the evening of Chinese Valentine's Day.

On Qixi Festival, Cowherd and Weaver Girl meet again, and this Qixi Festival may also be the last private meeting between her and Lu Cheng this year or even in this lifetime.

If so, Ningxiang wanted to give Lu Cheng a real meeting between men and women.

Don't care about etiquette and restraint, go to see him happily, and accompany him to do whatever...he wants to do.
