The two are from the sa village. Fat Aunt is also Li Cuixia’s matchmaker. To poke at each other’s sore spots like this is not just inappropriate, it’s truly malicious! Luo Ye, who intended to go inside, sighed lightly, turned, and walked towards Fat Aunt: "Calm down, it’s not worth getting so upset with soone like her."
"Do you know who that Zhu Honghai she’s talking about is? He’s a fool from my mother’s village, a lifelong bachelor, supported by the village team, and knows nothing beyond food and clothing.
Isn’t she looking down on ? Even if I’m over fifty, even if I’m alone, I wouldn’t stoop so low as to beco a burden like that, right?
She’s stabbing right in the heart. My dear Old Li has been gone for so many years. If I had so thoughts, could I have waited until now?... " Fat Aunt’s tears rolled down, and then she burst into crying.
Li Cuixia is truly devoid of morals, just devouring the water source and drowning the well digger! Luo Ye lightly patted Fat Aunt without saying much. Such sorrow has likely been building up for quite a while, and given the chance, it’s like a breaching flood pouring out. Once she’s done venting, her heart will lighten up, and she’ll feel better.
The door to the Lu Family house swung open, and a middle-aged woman stepped out, taking a few quick steps towards Luo Ye: "I was inside when I heard her howling away. She seed fine when she left. What happened?"
As Luo Ye was explaining, the door swung open again, and Lu Qingqing ca out, montarily stunned upon seeing Luo Ye, then smiling as she approached to pull Luo Ye’s hand: "Ye’er, why did you co?"
"Qingqing, do you know this young girl?" The middle-aged woman asked, while Fat Aunt, ceasing her sobs, curiously looked at Lu Qingqing—indeed quite gossipy, still curious at such a ti, awkward.
"Wen Su is a child from my uncle’s family." Luo Ye quickly explained. Although her approach was prudent, offering an incomplete explanation while still being reassuring wasn’t easy, so for the sake of her second brother, she’d better appear enthusiastic and proactive.
"Was it Wen Su who asked you to co? How co? Final exams are approaching, how can he waste ti now? Although, my dad is fine, it was just a false alarm, he scared to death." Lu Qingqing patted her chest as she spoke, though smiling, her eyes faintly glinted with tears.
Evidently, Wen Su hadn’t told her the truth. It was hard to say what he told her the days before. Luo Ye didn’t want to explain with Fat Aunt present, so she nudged Lu Qingqing: "I’ll tell you later. Now that I’m here, can’t you offer a drink?"
"Qingqing, quickly bring Ye’er inside, it’s cold outside." Lu Qi urged her daughter, looked at Luo Ye apologetically, "Ye’er, go inside and get warm. Auntie will stay outside for a while. I’ll make sothing nice for you tonight."
"Thank you, Auntie." Luo Ye waved to Fat Aunt again, "Auntie, see you soon."
Fat Aunt still wore a look of confusion. Seeing Luo Ye say this, she waved back: "See you, thank you."
Li Cuixia was blabbering and trying to cozy up to Lu Zhishan. Seeing Lu Qingqing leading Luo Ye inside, she paused with a start. Lu Zhishan also saw Luo Ye and stood up excitedly, "Hello, Uncle Lu." Luo Ye greeted first, then turned her attention to Wen Su sitting with Lu Dongdong: "Second brother, I purposely didn’t tell you, surprise?"
These words were indeed a reminder to Wen Su. She ca with the intention of telling the other party everything that could be said. As a smart person, Wen Su couldn’t misunderstand Luo Ye’s intentions. He got up, moved forward, and ruffled her hair: "Silly girl."
Those three simple words implied this aning: I am your second brother, family, how could I let you have a hard ti?
Luo Ye smiled at him, greeted Lu Dongdong, and then looked again at the contemplative Lu Zhishan: "Uncle Lu, I’m intruding, are you welco?"
"A warm welco indeed, Luoluo, you’re an honored guest, Uncle Lu will fetch so of my treasured tea for you." Lu Zhishan took a few steps, lightly glanced at the grinning fool Li Cuixia: "Mrs. Xing, thank you for coming to see , there’s a distinguished guest in our ho, so we won’t keep you."
"Director Lu, you probably don’t know yet. When Xiao Luo first ca to the mine, he rode in the sa car as my father-in-law. He has a good relationship with my father-in-law. Last week, he even went to our house for dumplings." She said this, hoping to indicate that her family has close ties with Luo Ye, seeking special attention from Lu Zhishan.
With Zan Wenxing being arrested, Lu Zhishan had beco the rightful mine director at Yuanzhou Mine, which was also the key reason his ho was bustling these days.
Li Cuixia’s words ant sothing else to the Lu siblings. Lu Qingqing looked at Luo Ye with surprise: "Luoluo, why did you co to the mine so early? Since you ca to the mine, why are you only visiting our house today?"
"I’ll explain later." Luo Ye pulled her to sit down, "I have my reasons for doing this, don’t rush."
"Does this child think the Mine Cultural Troupe has a bad reputation and doesn’t want to tell family?" Li Cuixia added nosily.
"Mine Cultural Troupe? Luoluo, why did you go to the Mine Cultural Troupe? Aren’t you..."
Wen Su frowned, interrupting her: "Qingqing, I will tell you later."
"You knew all along?" Lu Qingqing showed a hurt expression.
Wen Su looked at Li Cuixia: "You can leave now."
"Hey, big son-in-law, haven’t married our Qingqing yet, and already putting on airs? Our Qingqing is..."
"Get out!"
The shout ca from Lu Zhishan. Though he went to the study for tea leaves, he vaguely heard the gist of it. He was really repulsed by Li Cuixia! (To be continued.
