Chapter 499

Mrs. Lu nodded repeatedly in agreement: "That's right, just because she is clear-headed is enough for her to marry."

She said the word "marry" so loudly that Lu Jiu was embarrassed and scolded her: "Sister-in-law..."

Mrs. Lu laughed and said, "Mother, look at our sister like this, what else do you have to ask? Send a message to the Qin family immediately and tell them that we have found out everything and are very satisfied, so we can make the decision now."

Seeing that her youngest daughter was too embarrassed to even raise her head, Mrs. Lu said hurriedly, "We are the women, how can we take the initiative again and again? Wait a little longer."

"What are you waiting for? If you wait any longer, this good son-in-law will be taken away by others." Mrs. Lu said clearly: "Hua Tao Niang seems to be well-behaved, but some of her actions today cannot stand up to scrutiny... The Hua siblings made such a scene today, which left an impression on people."

The first meeting left such a deep impression. If you try harder, after the second and third meetings, won’t you become familiar with the Qin family?

"Fortunately, Qin Ying was clear-headed and ignored Hua Taoniang. If he had had any intention, the matter between our two families would have ended today."

Mrs. Lu said again, "Little sister, if Hua Taoniang comes to play with you, don't pay attention to her, or she will plot against you."

"Well, I will be careful." Because Lu Jiu was adopted, he was more perceptive and knew how to protect himself. He would be on guard against Hua Taoniang who suddenly came to visit and caused this accident.

In the evening, Chief Lu came back, and Mrs. Lu asked him, "What's going on? Why did Lu Sanhong suddenly come back?"

Lu Sanhong is a person who will not do anything without benefits. She will not come back without some benefits.

Chief Lu said, "She said that her family was having a hard time, and when she heard that her mother's family was getting prosperous, she brought her children back to see if there was anything they could do."

"Humph, you think I will believe this lame excuse? I'm afraid he saw that there are many merchants coming here, so he came back to find a good marriage for his daughter."

"It's not easy for them to propose marriage to Nanzhen now. And with what happened today, I'm afraid that Lu Sanhong has set her eyes on Brother Qin's family and wants to snatch our son-in-law!"

The more Chief Lu spoke, the angrier he became. He suddenly remembered something and stood up abruptly, startling Mrs. Lu. She quickly pulled his arm and said, "Why are you making so much noise? Sit down quickly."

Patriarch Lu lowered his head, looked at his old wife, and said, "You said that Lu Sanhong's family would not be bribed by someone to come back specifically to find an opportunity to get close to Brother Qin's family, right?"

"Oh, I think this is probably the case. So many people want the secret recipe of Brother Qin's family. Someone must have taken action. No, I have to go out again and ask someone to keep an eye on Lu Sanhong's family!"

This?

Mrs. Lu thought that he had a plan, but she was also afraid of the possibility of something happening, so she didn't stop him: "Go ahead. Find someone you can trust, and don't let the news leak out."

"Well, don't worry." Patriarch Lu left quickly.

He came back an hour later.

Mrs. Lu hurriedly brought him the remaining food.

But Patriarch Lu couldn't eat it.

Mrs. Lu frowned and asked, "Old man, why don't you have an appetite? Are you tired?"

Patriarch Lu shook his head, and after a moment, he said, "I am struggling with whether to tell Brother Qin's family about this... If we tell them without any evidence, what will Brother Qin think of us? But what if Lu Sanhong's family is really bribed, and Brother Qin's family is not on guard, what should we do if they are tricked?"

This?

Mrs. Lu was also in a dilemma. After a while, she said, "Let's eat first and talk about it tomorrow."

The old couple didn't sleep well all night because of whether to tell the Qin family or not.

The next day, Patriarch Lu waited at home for a whole day and got the news that Lu Sanhong went to the Xue family's construction site to find a job and met so many strangers that he couldn't tell if there was anyone among them who bribed her.

After hearing this news, Patriarch Lu suffered from insomnia again.

I was worried for two days and looked older.

Mrs. Lu said, "Go talk to Brother Qin today. If you keep struggling, I'm afraid you won't be able to handle it."

Patriarch Lu turned to look at her: "...really want to say it?"

Mrs. Lu nodded: "Go ahead, the worst that can happen is that we will be laughed at. We are old, and we have encountered many things before. It's no big deal to be laughed at a few times."

"Well, let's do it." After making up his mind, Patriarch Lu became impatient and immediately asked Lu Dawen to harness the car, take his son and grandson with him, and go to the ghost village to find Grandpa Qin.

……

"What, the Lu clan leader and his grandchildren are here? Oh my god, I'm afraid they are coming...Quanzi's wife, my aunt wants to ask for leave, please approve it quickly!" Auntie Qin yelled. Fortunately, she didn't say the word "inquire", otherwise all the female workers in the workshop would know that the two families were secretly planning a marriage.

"Sixth Aunt, please come with me." Su was afraid that she would let the cat out of the bag, so she called her out of the workshop and took her directly to Qin's house to see Grandma Qin: "Sixth Aunt, please talk to Fifth Aunt yourself."

Grandma Qin Liu glared at her, but she could only tell Grandma Qin about the matter herself.

Grandma Qin was speechless after hearing this: "Have you ever seen a father or brother come to inquire about a marriage proposal in person?"

Granny Qin Liu said awkwardly: "I haven't seen it before, but what if the rules in Taifeng Town are different from those in our hometown?"

Grandma Qin rolled her eyes at her and said, "Go help in the kitchen. If I need to see you, I'll call you out."

Don’t go back to the workshop, otherwise if you let the secret slip and the marriage doesn’t take place, won’t the two families be laughed at by the surrounding area?

"Hey, hey, hey, I'll go to the kitchen right now. Fifth sister-in-law, send someone to find Ying Ge'er and Lao Liu, and ask them to behave better and not embarrass me!" After giving the instructions, Grandma Qin Liu went to the kitchen.

Soon, Qin Laoliu and Qin Ying also knew that Chief Lu was coming to the village.

Qin Ying was very nervous and went home to change into new clothes for the New Year.

Qin Laoliu was not worried: "Son, relax, your fifth uncle is here, you can't escape this marriage."

Qin Ying hurriedly said, "Dad, please don't talk nonsense. It's nothing. What if it ruins the girl's reputation?"

Then he said, "Dad, go change your clothes, and stop talking nonsense."

Qin Laoliu rolled his eyes at him and said, "Although your father has accomplished nothing, he is very careful with his words. If there is anything to say, I always let your mother speak for you."

It's like when there's a problem, he lets the fifth brother solve it, without putting in any effort.

"..." Qin Ying still dragged Qin Laoliu home to change clothes.

But Patriarch Lu didn't come here to talk about marriage.

In the guest room, Patriarch Lu hesitated for a while, but still said what he wanted to say, and then said: "Brother, you are a little mean, but I am afraid of the unexpected."

"Why would you be so mean? Brother Lu is also thinking about my family." Grandpa Qin was grateful and said solemnly: "Brother Lu, don't worry, my family will be on guard against those who approach suddenly. Thank you for your reminder this time."

After hearing this, Patriarch Lu relaxed and smiled immediately: "Brother Qin, just don't blame me for being nosy... You don't know, in order to avoid talking about this, I didn't sleep well for two days, and I even got a few more wrinkles."

Patriarch Lu paused and said, making Grandpa Qin laugh so hard. He then looked at Lu Dawen's youngest son and said, "Brother Yan, come on, Grandpa Qin will take you to choose the colored cloth."

Colored cloth?

Yan'er's eyes lit up and he really wanted to go, but he was already nine years old and sensible enough, so he didn't dare to move, for fear of bringing shame to his family. He looked at Patriarch Lu.

Chief Lu said, "If you can't send out this gift from Grandpa Qin, you won't be able to sleep at night. Go and choose."

Yan Ge'er then stood up and bowed, saying, "Thank you, Grandpa Qin."

Grandpa Qin smiled and patted his head: "Let's go, let's go together."
