Chapter 94: Learning Makes People Happy
Lu San did not know that this responsibility had actually been placed on his shoulders, what great trust this was. He felt a little uneasy, but still agreed: “Alright, I can do it.”
Fang Yuan said lightly: “Dad is busy. He definitely does not have time to come back and handle these things. You can handle it yourself at home. Do not rely on others.”
Lu San had never thought that when he got married and built a house, his second brother and second sister-in-law would be able to help and even prepare the materials for him, and he was already very satisfied.
The second sister-in-law’s tone did not matter. What mattered was that they had helped with the matter. He was very grateful.
On Mother Lu’s side, besides happiness there was also worry. The son and daughter-in-law had only been out for a short time, yet they brought back so many things: “This is not illegal, right?” The things had come too quickly, and she felt uneasy.
Lu Chuan said: “Do not worry.” Then he added: “Mom, later on, I am thinking of letting Fang Yuan send me to school.”
Mother Lu had not even spoken yet when Fang Yuan immediately refused: “I am busy. Besides, if I go to the provincial city, what if I cannot find my way back?”
Lu Chuan pressed his lips together, somewhat unhappy, You really are so carefree, just letting a man go like this. Aren’t you afraid I will not come back?
If Fang Yuan cared even half as much about him as a mother-in-law does, he would not have thought like this.
Fang Yuan said: “I am talking to you. Are you afraid you cannot find the way, or are you just not brave enough to go alone?”
Mother Lu looked at her son: ”Ahem, ahem. What if Fang Yuan cannot find her way back?”
That was truly a mother-in-law and daughter-in-law pair, both worrying in the same direction.
Lu Chuan said: “We still have a few days before school starts. I will take Fang Yuan to have a look first, send her back, then I will go to school.”
Mother Lu thought to herself, it is only because they have some money now, otherwise how could they afford all this trouble. Since her son was willing, she did not object. Besides, in their family, Fang Yuan had the final say on this matter.
Fang Yuan said directly: “Are you bored? Are you messing with me, or messing with money?”
Lu Chuan felt that facing Fang Yuan like this, he still cared so much about her, he must really have fallen for her. Otherwise, could it be that he was just cheap himself?
Mother Lu looked at her son’s expression and coaxed Fang Yuan: “Fang Yuan, why not go take a look at where Lu Chuan will be staying. If anything happens in the future, at least you will know where to find him.”
Fang Yuan said: “That makes sense.” Then she added: “But what about the construction site?”
Lu Chuan also did not dare to say who was more important, the construction site or him. The answer was obvious, it would not be him Lu Chuan. He could only take a deep breath: “Fifth Brother is there. Do you not trust Fifth Brother?”
Fang Yuan was truly focused on business matters: “If you are not there, I am not there either, is that fine?”
Lu Chuan felt something was off: “Do not tell me you really do not trust Fifth Brother?”
Fifth Brother had always been completely devoted to Fang Yuan.
Fang Yuan coughed awkwardly: “I am just worried he will be too busy.”
It was rare for her to even try to cover it up.
Lu Chuan said: “It is fine. Dad is there.”
Fang Yuan actually nodded: “That is true.” Lu Chuan finally understood that his wife was actually like Cao Cao, extremely suspicious.
Before they could finish discussing, Li Meng arrived outside, dragging Lu Feng along. Lu Chuan’s expression turned unpleasant, and he first glanced at Fang Yuan.
Fang Yuan comforted Lu Chuan: “I will not let those two disgust me. No need to look at me.”
Lu Chuan lowered his head and thought, I am not looking at you for that reason.
Only he knew exactly why. He looked gloomily at Lu Feng, not feeling the slightest embarrassment. Why was he still coming over here?
When he went out to study in the future and was away from home for years, would Lu Feng still shamelessly cling to them like this? It was disgusting.
Over there, Li Meng raised her chin and said in a tone that immediately made people dislike her: “Mom, why are you here? Oh, so Second Brother and Second Brother’s wife are back.”
Fang Yuan said: “The dog days of summer are already over, yet cicadas are still chirping randomly. So annoying.”
Lu Chuan said: “Ignore her. It hurts the eyes.”
Mother Lu saw that Li Meng was looking for her as soon as she spoke and wanted to take her away: “Second daughter-in-law, do not be angry. Mom will leave now and take her with me.”
Since Li Meng had come, she clearly did not plan to leave: “Right, Second daughter-in-law, I came today to share some good news with you. You are going to have a nephew.”
Mother Lu opened her mouth: “Really?” She was both surprised and delighted.
Li Meng stroked her still-flat stomach, her chin almost lifting into the air with pride: “Mom, you should not always come running over to Second Brother’s place in the future. Our mother and son cannot be treated so carelessly.”
Mother Lu said: “Since you are pregnant, go home and rest properly. Come on, go back.”
She truly wanted to send her away and keep her far from Second Brother’s wife.
Li Meng said: “Mom, this is a big matter for our family. Of course I have to come and share the news.”
Fang Yuan glanced at Li Meng twice and finally spoke coldly: “How many months?”
Li Meng was very proud: “Two months.” She had gotten pregnant right after marriage.
Fang Yuan sneered: “This child is unlucky. Even the timing of conception is enough to make people scold it.”
Li Meng immediately exploded: “What are you saying? Why are you insulting my son?”
Fang Yuan said: “Do I need to tell you? Married for two months, child two months old. If we are being polite, we say you are carrying a child like laying eggs. If we are not, we might ask where the child came from.”
Let me see you show off recklessly.
Fang Yuan was in a bad mood and even touched her stomach, then glared fiercely at Lu Chuan.
Lu Chuan immediately understood. Fang Yuan was blaming him for not making her pregnant. But that was truly difficult for him.
Fang Yuan’s expectations were a bit too high. Given their current relationship, if she really did get pregnant, he would be the first to ask himself where he got such ability.
Li Meng panicked and grabbed Lu Feng: “Feng ge, this woman is deliberately insulting me. You naturally understand in your heart.”
Fang Yuan said: “Do not even talk about carrying a child. Even if you were carrying Nezha, I would not be responsible. I told you already, stop wandering in front of me.”
Li Meng said: “You, how can you say that? That is your nephew. Are you jealous?”
Fang Yuan said: “Jealous of your shamelessness? Do you have any sense of proportion? I spit on you. Believe it or not, I will go back to the village and say you are two and a half months pregnant.”
Li Meng had not expected Fang Yuan to be so ruthless: “You are slandering me.”
Fang Yuan said: “You are asking for it. Get lost. Husband gone for more than ten years, child three and a half years old. Believe it or not, the whole village will be talking about this story tomorrow.”
Even Lu Chuan did not expect Fang Yuan to have such eloquence: “The joke book I bought for you is actually being used. See, I told you reading makes people improve.”
Fang Yuan nodded: “It is somewhat useful. I will read it when I have time.”
Look at them, this couple actually found the joy of learning at a time like this.
Li Meng failed to show off and almost turned to leave. When facing someone who feared nothing and dared to say anything, what could she even do?
From beginning to end, Lu Feng was just a background figure, not saying a single word. What exactly did he come here for?
Of course, Li Meng did not forget to shout at Mother Lu: “Mom, this child has nothing to do with anyone else, but it is your grandson. Are you just going to watch her insult the eldest grandson of the Lu family like this?”
