Chapter 99 Rejection of the Hou Family
Liang Ladi didn't know what it meant, but Qin Huairu covered her mouth and smiled. She leaned over to Liang Ladi's ear and said something to her...
Liang Ladi rolled her eyes at Lin Chen after hearing this...
"They will bully us. If a person talks carelessly, he will bite his tongue! You are not afraid..."
……
eight pm
The lights have been turned off everywhere in the city, and most people have fallen asleep at this time.
It’s a little late today, Saturday. On normal days, everyone would have gone to bed long ago.
After taking a shower, Lin Chen took out a nightgown from the space and put it on...
He glanced at the bedroom and turned off all the lights. After lighting the candles in the bedroom again, Lin Chen lit the stove in front of the window...
There was no movement on the big bed at this time, and Lin Chen walked over with a smile.
"Wait a minute, Lin Chen... bring the thermos over! I'll be thirsty and it will be convenient for you to drink some water..."
……
It is important to replenish water in time... Lin Chen poured two cups of fragrant tea before crawling into the big bed...
Qin Huairu smiled and said: "Wait a moment..."
Lin Chen didn't know what tricks his wife was going to play, but Qin Huairu quickly covered Lin Chen's eyes with a homemade blindfold.
"You can't see it now?"
Lin Chen nodded, but he thought in his heart that even if you cover it with an iron bucket, it won’t block my perspective!
Qin Huairu covered her mouth and smiled: "It's good that you can't see it. Now we are not allowed to make any sound."
Lin Chen thought to himself, you guys are really good at playing! This game is more fun when there are more people... After all, there are three Marshal Tianpeng touching his wife.
In this way, Lin Chen became Teacher Qin's teaching tool and was at his mercy.
……
On the other side, a banquet was still going on at the Chen family in Qianmen, and Hou Yongjie's parents came with gifts to show their goodwill.
The Chen family treated them with courtesy but refused to mention the matter of the two children.
Wang Yuanhang's wife has already told her sister about the cause of Chen Xueru's lovesickness...
Chen Xueru's parents didn't agree at first, but who knew that every time the girl came back, she was absent-minded and didn't eat or drink. She would always smile foolishly, which scared the couple.
More importantly, there was news these days that the Hou family was going to move to America...
The front line is still fighting the US imperialists, but you are thinking about going to the US imperialists' home. How can we feel at ease to marry our daughter to your Hou family...
Lin Chen knew that the Hou family had embezzled Chen Xueru's money and fled to the United States two years ago, so he asked Director Liu to send a message to the Chen family.
……
Seeing that the Chen couple did not want to involve the matter of the two children, Hou Yongjie's parents decided to make it clear directly.
"Brother Chen, I came here mainly to ask about my niece Yongjie and Xueru. Now the two children have reached adulthood... If you agree, how about our Hou family send the betrothal gifts to niece Xueru?"
Chen Xueru's parents looked at each other and smiled awkwardly.
"Brother Hou, this matter is not something we can decide now. This is a new society... we don't practice arranged marriages like in the old society. Xueru doesn't want to get married so early. So in order not to delay my nephew's marriage... you should look for other girls!"
In the following time, no matter what the Hou couple said, Chen Xueru's parents just refused to confess...
Hou Yongjie's parents were also helpless. It seemed that their plan to cheat the Chen family out of their wealth was not going to work.
They planned that after their son married Chen Xueru, he would gain her trust in a year or two and then directly take away the money from the Chen family. Now, for some reason, the old Chen couple just refused to speak up.
It would have been better if I didn’t know. Now that I know, how can I push my precious daughter into the Hou family’s fire pit?
Chen Xueru, hiding behind the door curtain, covered her mouth and laughed, then ran back to her boudoir in the backyard.
"Little monkey, there's no way you can marry me..."
Chen Xueru lay down in bed and began to think about eating roast duck with Lin Chen tomorrow.
On the other side, Lin Chen had already fallen into the land of gentleness...
……
The next morning, Qin Huairu gently woke Liang Ladi up on the big bed and they smiled at each other.
"You are really awesome, you did a great job!"
Liang Ladi was almost embarrassed when she thought about it...
"I... I have a better physique so... so I have better endurance. But we have all tried our best..."
Qin Huairu thought that Lin Chen was not bragging. She was sweating profusely every time. But she never saw him sweating or panting...
"I'm going to meet the friend he mentioned today. If it's suitable, we can ask her to accompany you. I live in the courtyard and my little cousin can keep me company!"
Liang Ladi nodded. They had already discussed this last night. Such a big bed cannot be wasted...
The reason why Liang Ladi was so brave the second time was all because Lin Chen kept transferring vitality to her. Otherwise, it would not have worked at all...
……
Dinner table
The three of them simply drank the porridge and ate boiled eggs. Now Qin Huairu and Liang Ladi have a new relationship. Comrades who once carried guns together...
"Huai Ru, I'll go get Xiao Jing Ru later! She can keep you company and talk when I'm not around... It just so happens that she won't be late for class tomorrow, so just let Yu Shui take her with her tomorrow. I've already made arrangements for the school the day before yesterday..."
"Okay, go ahead! Let's clean up the pharmacy and let her stay there. Go early and come back early so as not to delay the invitation at noon..."
"I'll be back soon, so I won't be late for the roast duck... Just let Jingru eat here at noon. I don't know what the little girl means."
……
Qinjiazhuang
Since her cousin said last week that she would take Jingru to school in the city, she would come to her uncle's house every day after school. She was afraid that her cousin would not be able to find her...
Today is Sunday. Little Jingru came to her uncle's house to play and didn't leave. Her parents told her that there was a good chance that her cousin and brother-in-law would come back on Sunday.
Since her brother-in-law doesn't have to work on Sundays, he will most likely come to pick her up.
Lin Chen pushed his bicycle out of the house. He first looked in the direction of Qinjiazhuang and then appeared again in an empty haystack outside the village.
In a few minutes, they arrived at Qin Huairu's door...
Qin Jingru, who was playing with two children, hadn't reacted yet when Lin Chen came behind her.
"Jingru, your brother-in-law is here!"
Qin Jingru turned around quickly when she heard what her friend said. At this time, Lin Chen was looking at her and smiling.
"Hey, my brother-in-law is here! My brother-in-law is here to take me into the city..."
Lin Chen looked at the little girl dancing with joy.
"Why don't you go home and call your parents?"
"Hey!"
After hearing what Lin Chen said, Qin Jingru hurried home to inform her parents that her brother-in-law had really come!
Lin Chen ignored her and pushed his bicycle into Qin Huairu's house. At this time, his father-in-law and mother-in-law had already come out to greet him.
Lin Chen asked his mother-in-law to take the things he brought back to the house, while he and his father-in-law chatted in the yard waiting for Qin Jingru's parents to come.
"Lin Chen, you don't feel any pressure to bring Jingru into the city, right? We won't force you to do this, and it's okay if you don't want to take her. There's nothing to be embarrassed about, Huairu made the decision without consulting you."
