339 Daughter-in-law
The mutton is put into the copper pot, and the red soup is bubbling.
A dozen people were sitting around the big table, and a cat squatted under Luman's legs, immersed in eating the half-cooked chicken in its small bowl.
"Xiaoyi." Aunt Duan Lu picked up the dishes and looked curiously at the four children across the table.
There were so many people just now, so she didn't have the nerve to ask in front of the older generation. Now that she and Wen Yi were sitting next to each other, the two sisters would have the opportunity to talk to each other.
"Is this boy the one who played best with Ling Yijia'er when we were young?"
"Yeah." Wen Yi lowered his head and nodded slightly, "Gu Yan and Wei Hua were the earliest co-workers. He still calls Wei Hua 'road manager'. He is not an outsider."
"Then you didn't book a baby wedding then?"
Duan Lu smiled and joked: "Oh, I realized it. When I was a child, it was really inconvenient to order. I just gave birth to a boy, but you have twins and two daughters. Do you want to order for Ling Yi or for Ling Yi?"
Order from Jiaer? Haha.”
Wen Yi looked at her sister-in-law helplessly: "We're already in the 21st century, but we still have this feudal arrangement."
"Now that I have grown up, I can tell the difference."
Duan Lu remembered that when choosing a seat, Gu Jiaer was chattering and stayed on the seat next to Lu Man.
At this moment, Gu Jiaer was smiling happily, introducing this dish to Lu Man, recommending that dish, and never had any time to spare.
You can tell at a glance which of the twins is talking about being friends with him.
Duan Lu asked curiously: "Ling Yi and Jia'er look so similar, and he is two sisters who met at the same time. Why did you choose the younger sister? How did you gradually get along with Jia'er?"
In Duan Lu's imagination, this seemed to be a 50% random probability question.
Wen Yi shook her head, she couldn't tell the specific situation.
When the daughters were children, they did play enthusiastically with Lu Mandu. However, in adolescence, even though they have similar appearances, in the eyes of others, the twins even look the same. But Wenyi is sure of one thing, their daughters have different outward personalities.
Naturally there will be different stories.
"Xiao Yi, are you satisfied with your future son-in-law?" Duan Lu touched Wen Yi's arm with her elbow.
Wen Yi smiled and didn't answer.
"What are you satisfied with?" Wen Jiayuan next to him muttered, "It's a show of force from the very beginning. If you have something to say, why don't you say it clearly? You have to cook for me with your own hands."
The smile on Wen Yi's face gradually disappeared.
"Ah? Xiaoyi, did you do this on purpose?"
Duan Lu lowered her voice: "That little guy doesn't suit your liking. He must have offended you somewhere."
Seeing that Wen Yi was smiling but not smiling at all, Duan Lu finally realized that her sister-in-law had no hostility towards her future brother-in-law. She just had no respect for her frying skills...
Duan Lu gouged out Wen Jiayuan and gave him a piece of dried chili pepper.
"What are you going to do with the big dried pepper skins for me? Can't you put a piece of meat in them?"
"Eat your food."
…
After the party was over, the old, middle-aged and young were divided into three groups. The living room of Gu Yan's house was spacious enough for so many people to talk homely.
After Wen Jiayuan and Duan Lu had dinner with the four members of the Lu family, they asked a few more questions about Lu Man's situation.
The grandparents of the Gu twins heard Wen Jiayuan ask about Lu Man. The two old people were neighbors in the same community as the Lu family. They both said to each other that "this child has been honest since he was a child" and "will definitely be promising when he grows up."
"Grandma~" Gu Jiaer threw herself on their sofa.
"Jia'er, why are you here?" Duan Lu asked.
Gu Jiaer was lying next to the sofa, smiling and whispering: "I heard you guys talking about brother...about Lu Man."
"That won't bring you here, right?" Duan Lu smiled and touched the back of Gu Jia'er's head lovingly.
"Grandma and grandpa, I don't know the latest information."
Gu Jiaer said seriously: "Lu Man is not only honest, but also has many, many outstanding qualities."
In his heart, Gu Jiaer even cursed a little.
honest?
These two words, at best, can only describe my brother when he was a child. Do they have anything to do with the current Lu Xiaoman?
Gu Jiaer talked about Lu Man's recent actions and briefly described the ID photo and the Three Kingdoms Killing. Wen Jiayuan and Duan Lu listened, and the expressions on their faces changed. The couple looked at each other and were really surprised.
Wen Jiayuan and his wife couldn't believe it. They had just entered college and earned the money for a house. Their horizons had already been opened. They heard Gu Jiaer's uninvited voice and said, "This is not that."
All the "strength" of the young man?
"During the summer vacation, my brother launched "Three Kingdoms", which was on the news in the Shanghai Stock Exchange and was even reported on half a page of the Youth Daily."
Seeing that Gu Jia'er's words made her frown, Duan Lu joked: "Jia'er, look at your energy, it seems like you are on the news yourself, you are so happy."
Gu Jiaer turned a deaf ear and stood up angrily and ran upstairs.
"Eh, Jia'er?" Wen Yi tried to call her.
"Mom, I was looking for my brother's news clippings for my uncle and aunt. I have a copy of them all."
"This child..."
Wen Yi stopped him in a funny way: "Don't go upstairs. Your dad brought the research before, but he put it in the room on the left on the first floor."
"Um?!"
Gu Jiaer's almond-shaped eyes lit up: "Dad, did you secretly see it?"
So, dad secretly relaxed his strings and didn't resist his brother as thoroughly as he did at the beginning?
"Ahem." Gu Yan, who was drinking tea with the elderly at the side, made a heavy noise in his throat.
"You just put it on the computer table. It's not a diary and it's not locked. Why don't you let your dad read it?" Wen Yi said with a smile.
"Let's see!" Gu Jia'er smiled and nodded, "Daddy is welcome to see more!"
The topic just spread all around the road.
Not far away, Lu Man was guarding Gu Lingyi, and Lu Xiaoshuang was guarding a refreshment shelf. The three of them were slowly consuming the after-dinner fruits.
"Xiao Man, they are all discussing you."
Lu Xiaoshuang swallowed a mouthful of cantaloupe: "Why don't you go talk to Uncle Wen and the others?"
"I won't go." Lu Man shook his head, "There are too many people. They are all elders. It's not a good time."
"Why."
At this time, Grandma Lu held up her reading glasses and let Lu Man pass.
"Xiao Manlie, is it really you up here?"
"Grandma, what you're saying is that I'm not like Ling Yijia'er, and I have a twin brother." Lu Man smiled, "If it's fake, it's me."
"My eldest grandson has a lot of potential," Grandma Lu said with emotion.
Based on Grandma Lu's age and experience, before television, the village wanted to know some news. In addition to the radio, it was the newspaper that the brigade secretary commemorated. The media of newspapers was extremely authoritative and noble in her heart.
"Why didn't you think of leaving a copy of this newspaper for grandma?"
"Grandma, I didn't know you wanted this, so I'll get you another one tomorrow. By the way, what do you want to do here?"
"Get a frame, mount it, and hang it in the room of our old home."
"Grandma..." Lu Man had a black line on his head, "No, not..."
After talking for a while, Lu Man gave up the old man's idea of getting newspaper clippings to frame. But Grandma Lu still attached great importance to the "honor" of her eldest grandson being in the newspaper, and said that she would press the newspaper that reported Lu Man on her old wooden table.
Under the cover glass, keep it well.
Gu Jiaer smiled happily: "Grandma, I will get you two copies later and you can take them back. I bought a lot of them at that time."
Grandma Lu smiled with crinkles in her eyes: "Okay, okay, I feel sorry for you, girl, to follow Xiaoman. It was hot at that time, so it's hard for you to run outside."
"No, grandma, it's not bitter at all."
Gu Jiaer waved her hand, following Lu Man during the summer vacation, traveling all over the country to comic exhibitions, and being able to accompany Lu Man, the big bad guy, she was so happy that she wanted to hum songs even in her sleep.
Grandma of the Lu family grinned and said, "Xiaoman has become more diligent. This way, when we go out, the adults in the family can rest assured."
Lu Man opened his mouth, trying to clear his name, but Gu Jiaer asked with a smile: "Grandma, Lu Man never slacked off before, he also worked very hard in the college entrance examination."
Grandma of the Lu family shook her head and said slowly: "Girl, you only know one of them. He has a loose temper and loves to take time off."
"Other children would be kicked as often as possible when they were in their mother's belly. Xiaoman was more honest at that time. He didn't kick. He has been lazy since he was a child."
"Hahahaha——" Gu Jiaer didn't expect her grandma's angle to be so strange, she was holding her stomach and almost burst out laughing.
Lu Man rubbed his nose in embarrassment, and while the elders were enjoying themselves, he quietly looked back at Lingyi.
"Now do you understand the importance of hiding and chatting with your elders?"
Gu Lingyi and Lu Xiaoshuang also heard Grandma Lu's serious words and were suppressing smiles.
"Xiao Man, I sympathize with you for three seconds."
The adults continued chatting about their daily life. When Duan Lu was having fun, she looked at Lu Weihua and Liu Jing and half-jokingly said to them: "It's a pity. Your family has a dragon and a phoenix. My sister's family has two daughters. If you guys
We also have two sons, and in a few years, they may all be even more intimate."
Liu Jing smiled and replied with a joke: "Don't be like this. One son is enough trouble. If there are two sons, the daughter-in-law is also a couple. If I don't serve you well, I'm afraid I won't be punished on Monday, Wednesday and Friday."
The eldest daughter-in-law scolded her, and she was scolded by the younger daughter-in-law on Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday——"
"After being scolded, I still have to take care of their children on weekends." Wen Jiayuan took over the topic and made everyone laugh again.
"Then you are kidding me." Duan Lu looked at Wen Yi's expression and said tentatively to Liu Jing, "Jia'er's tutor is so good. If I really want to marry him, I will definitely not make you, my mother-in-law, angry.
"
Liu Jing glanced at Gu Jia'er. The girl was a little embarrassed and lowered her head with her breasts in her arms. She glanced at Gu Lingyi inadvertently.
No one noticed that Gu Lingyi was a little angry, and she quickly and covertly gave Lu Man a blank look.
