Chapter 838 80 Brother Soldier, a drop of water does not need to be repaid with your body 31
Lu Jingxing lowered his eyes, a hint of darkness flashing in his eyes.
There are still four months left, which is a bit long, but at least there is still hope.
"Don't worry, uncle and aunt, after I settle Miaomiao down, I will definitely find her a partner that you both will be satisfied with in every way."
Lu Jingxing's assurance finally put the old couple's mind at ease. Although little Lu is not very old, he does things in a way that makes people feel reassured.
Guan Chongshan didn't do nothing on the day he sobered up. He just dealt with village affairs.
Around noon, he went to the commune's post office with only a few crumpled cents in his pocket.
In one of his old notebooks, there was the phone number that Lin Zeyuan left when he wrote to their family. He thought he would never use it, but he didn't expect to use it at this time.
The call was transferred through several connections before it finally reached Lin Zeyuan's workplace. He had to confirm that Lu Jingxing was really Lin Zeyuan's nephew and was really such an officer.
After all, since Lu Jingxing came to their house, he has been coaxing the old couple into a state of disarray. To put it bluntly, he is much better than his annoying son.
But there's no such thing as a free lunch. It's better to ask for clarification.
Of course, he is an honest man, not a fool. He does not have to ask simply and directly. He only needs to thank the other party for bringing him a lot of local specialties, and then he can find out indirectly whether the other party is Lin Zeyuan's nephew.
Professor Lin didn't expect to receive a call from Brother Guan from Hongxing Village, and he was in a very good mood.
He heard from Manqing two days ago that Jingxing went to Yuyun County on business and asked her for Guan Chongshan's contact information. He didn't expect that Brother Guan would call him today.
It seems that Jingxing has arrived in Hongxing Village. Is he here to talk to me?
After the call was finally connected, the two of them briefly reminisced about the past. Guan Chongshan thanked the other party for the local specialties and said that Xiao Lu would rest at their house for the next few days and that he was a good boy.
Lin Zeyuan was stunned. Jingxing had matured after serving in the army? Wasn't he the one who used to be most impatient about living in someone else's house?
And there is clearly a guesthouse. Is it because you need to stay in Hongxing Village for something that you are asking for accommodation?
However, it seemed difficult to explain it clearly over the phone. Professor Lin just thought about it briefly. He was so naive that he didn't expect that the other party wanted to repay his benefactor on his behalf and marry his benefactor's daughter.
But at least after this phone call, Guan Chongshan knew that Lu Jingxing was indeed Professor Lin's nephew and a military officer, so he felt much more relieved.
Therefore, the couple now trusts Lu Jingxing very much and is naturally grateful for his care for their children.
"Xiao Lu, when we get to your territory, if Miaomiao doesn't behave, just treat her like your own child and educate her."
Time went back to the present. Out of gratitude, Guan Chongshan simply mixed up the generations, causing the originally smiling handsome man's smile to freeze for a moment.
He didn't want Miaomiao to be his child, he wanted her to be his wife. He was only 25, in the prime of his youth, not 52...
"Uncle, aunt, don't worry, there will be no problem. But as for Miaomiao's work, I'll tell her after I've confirmed her new job."
......
When Miaomiao brought a plate of peanuts into the main room, the conversation between the adults had come to an end.
Dad Guan was still stuffing tobacco into his pipe. In Miaomiao's limited memory, Dad smoked quite often. She didn't know what was worrying him that made him smoke more than usual.
Meanwhile, Guan Ma was already packing up the Liberation Shoes Lu Jingxing had bought, and she couldn't stop smiling...
"The peanuts are ready."
Miaomiao put the plate on the table and was about to sit down when she saw Brother Lu move to the side, leaving just enough space for her to sit down.
Miaomiao originally wanted to sit on the stool opposite, but her pig cravings kicked in, so she sat on the stool opposite, which was far away from the table and even farther away from the plate.
There aren't many good things in the countryside, so peanuts are a great way to treat people.
Because of this plate of peanuts, Miaomiao, who originally wanted to sit on another stool, was shamefully tempted.
The passive evasion skill was only her appearance when she was still unaware. Now that I think about it, what's so scary about it? What could be more important than eating?
If you really don't want to do anything, just let the other person see your vulgar side.
After thinking everything through, Miaomiao finally felt a little less awkward. She sat directly next to Lu Jingxing, grabbed a handful of peanuts and placed them in front of Lu Jingxing, and also grabbed a few and put them in her mouth.
The joy of a mouthful of peanuts is unmatched, and the crunching sound of chewing peanuts is particularly clear in the slightly quiet main room.
Lu Jingxing's gaze naturally fell on the corner of the little girl's mouth, which was stained with a little peanut crumbs, and his Adam's apple rolled slightly.
How could he not notice the change in Miaomiao's attitude towards him? It seemed like she had her family's company, or perhaps she had come to terms with things, and her movements had become more fluid.
Do you want him to hate you?
But no matter what kind of Miao Miao she was, he liked her very much. Even if it was just the crumbs stuck to the corners of her lips, he liked them very much...
Lu Jingxing calmly took out a handkerchief from his pocket and handed it to Miaomiao's face, almost touching her cheek.
"There's dust on the corners of your mouth, wipe it off."
Lu Jingxing's words not only stunned Miaomiao who was eating peanuts, but also the two old couple who were still brewing their emotions.
Everyone looked at Miaomiao, who ate more peanuts than Xiao Lu, and felt a little embarrassed for some reason.
They are about the same age, but Xiao Lu is already the group leader, while their daughter is still so stupid that she eats with food crumbs on her mouth...
Miaomiao didn't want to take the handkerchief at first. After all, it was obviously Lu Jingxing's, and it was something that only respectable people in that era could own.
But after thinking about the eye contact between the two people in the car, Miaomiao felt that she had to take the handkerchief.
So she took the other person's handkerchief and wiped the crumbs off her mouth.
Lu Jingxing was not idle either. Now that he understood the little girl's thoughts, he became more at ease.
He simply picked a few round peanuts and handed them to Miaomiao, asking her to continue eating. His movements were so natural as if he had done it a thousand times.
"Give."
