Everyone left, but Captain Zhou stayed.
Everyone knew that Captain Zhou had an unusual relationship with Mr. Lu, so they left without saying anything.
After looking at the simple courtyard, Mr. Lu hesitated for a moment, then called Captain Zhou to stand at the door and speak.
"It's small inside, let's talk about it here."
"good."
Captain Zhou agreed to everything Mr. Lu said.
There were still tears in his eyes: "I mainly want to tell you about the changes in our team over the years."
"It looks like things have gotten better. Your position as captain was not in vain!" Mr. Lu thought of the faces he saw. Although everyone was wearing the same clothes as before, their spirits were completely different.
Captain Zhou nodded quickly: "Yes, thanks to Xia Yao."
"Xia Yao is such a good girl. If she hadn't suggested that our brigade set up a chicken farm, we wouldn't have the extra income."
"You don't know, I was so frightened at that time that I didn't dare to do anything. It was she and Guihua who teamed up and went to the county seat to negotiate the matter first, and then I was put on the shelf."
"Xia Yao, this girl, is good at everything except farm work. But she is so good, she doesn't have to do farm work."
Captain Zhou opened his chat box and started talking non-stop, but his words did not stray away from Xia Yao.
After hearing this, Mr. Lu became even more strange.
"You also have a chicken farm?"
"yes!"
When Captain Zhou said this, he became even more excited. He slapped his thigh and talked to Mr. Lu carefully.
"The chicken farm in our brigade was proposed by Xia Yao. I just sold the first batch to a textile factory a while ago and earned thousands of yuan! When divided, each household can basically earn dozens of yuan more. "
"Xia Yao is indeed an educated youth from the city. He is much braver and more flexible than us! We originally thought we couldn't run a chicken farm! Later, when we went to the commune and asked, we were told that our village ran it collectively and worked collectively. The gains are not considered speculation!"
The more Captain Zhou talked, the more excited he became, and the more Mr. Lu listened, the more he became depressed.
This little girl Xia Yao is not as simple as she looks...
Perhaps it was because Mr. Lu hadn't spoken for a long time, Captain Zhou also sensed something was wrong: "Uncle Lu, you..."
"Don't worry, I'm just thinking about it in my mind." Mr. Lu waved his hand, "Listen to your words, she is a smart child, and I like smart children best."
At that moment, he hesitated a little, worried that Xia Yao was so smart but would not use his intelligence on the right path.
But when he thought about Lu Changbai and Lu Tiantian's chubby appearance, as well as Lu Wan's dependence on Xia Yao, all those doubts were forgotten by him.
Only smart people can accomplish great things. If they weren't smart, would they be able to get their family out of the farm so quickly?
Captain Zhou raised his head and glanced at Mr. Lu. He was relieved when he saw that there was no unpleasantness on his face. He originally wanted to speak for Xia Yao, but he didn't want Xia Yao to offend Mr. Lu for no reason.
Mr. Lu glanced at him: "Don't worry, I'm not that stingy."
"It is our Lu family's blessing to marry Xiaoxia."
Hearing Mr. Lu's emotion, Captain Zhou felt relieved.
"With your words, of course I feel relieved."
He smiled, but Mr. Lu didn't expose him, but nodded: "Okay, don't say these things to me. Go and do your business first."
"I'll bring someone to help you clean the house over there."
"No no no."
Mr. Lu quickly shook his head and refused.
Captain Zhou thought he had offended the old man somehow, and stood there a little helpless. He just wanted to help.
Seeing the panic in his eyes, Mr. Lu said angrily: "You still think that our Lu family is not eye-catching enough? We are a family of eight and can handle things by ourselves, so don't worry."
"I'm not..." Captain Zhou scratched his head, "I'm worried that it will be too crowded for you to live here."
"We didn't say anything in a dormitory with more than a dozen people on the farm, let alone when we returned to our own homes, no matter how crowded or cramped they were, it was better than being on the farm.
Captain Zhou's eyes turned red again because of Mr. Lu's words.
"Okay, okay." Mr. Lu waved his hand, "Don't be an eyesore in front of me."
He was obviously a tall and strong man, but his eyes always turned red at every turn. Mr. Lu was speechless.
Seeing Captain Zhou turn around, Captain Zhou wiped the corners of his eyes.
Inside the door, Xia Yao was watching Captain Zhou talking to Mr. Lu with great interest. At this time, she was pulled by Lu Jing.
"What are you doing!" Xia Yao glared at Lu Jing angrily.
Then the door opened and Mr. Lu walked in.
Xia Yao's big eyes, which were bright and bright because of watching the show, appeared in front of Mr. Lu.
Xia Yao's expression froze and he glared at Lu Jing secretly.
Lu Jingwei could only sigh helplessly. He had reminded him just now, but Xia Yao didn't realize it.
However, Mr. Lu didn't care too much about these small things. He cleared his throat and said to Xia Yao: "Xiao Xia, I have worked hard for you these years."
After he finished speaking, he bowed to Xia Yao very solemnly.
Xia Yao stood there, frozen, so frightened by this action that he didn't know what to do.
It was Lu Jing who held her down and asked her to accept Mr. Lu's bow.
Immediately afterwards, Lu Qinghe and Yang Sisi also reacted and bowed to Xia Yao.
"Thank you, Xiaoxia, for taking care of our big and small babies. Thank you..."
"We are all a family!" Xia Yao quickly dodged and said, "There is no need to be so polite."
As soon as she said this, Mr. Lu was stunned for a moment, and then he laughed: "Yes, you are the daughter-in-law of our Lu family."
While speaking, Mr. Lu glanced at Lu Jing teasingly: "Lu Jing is so virtuous and capable that he can marry you!"
Xia Yao, who just said the words casually, turned red after hearing Mr. Lu's words, especially since Lu Jing nodded seriously at this time.
In an instant, Xia Yao felt that his face was getting hot.
Lu Tiantian fanned her stupidly.
Xia Yao pretended to be calm and hugged Lu Tiantian: "I'll go cook first."
Then she walked to the kitchen, but the movements of her hands and feet betrayed her heart.
Seeing the two of them entering the kitchen, Mr. Lu coughed and winked at Lu Jing.
"Shall we, grandpa and grandson, go out and have a chat?"
"Grandpa, if you have anything to say, just say it here."
Lu Jing was keenly aware of Mr. Lu's thoughts and immediately refused.
After hearing this, Mr. Lu sneered: "Are you sure you want to talk about it here? Your marriage..."
"Grandpa, let's go in and talk." Lu Jing immediately interrupted Mr. Lu and took the initiative to open the door curtain of his and Lu Changbai's room.
Seeing this, Mr. Lu snorted coldly: "This is so ridiculous!"
As soon as he entered the room, Mr. Lu was even more certain of his guess.
"You and Xiaoxia...your marriage is fake."
Mr. Lu made the final decision.
Lu Jing's expression changed slightly, but no matter how well he hid it, he was still invisible in the eyes of Mr. Lu, who was like a human being.
"I've been here, can't I still see the difference between a real couple and a fake couple? How can a real couple not sleep in the same room?" Mr. Lu sneered, "But I think you two... are interested in having a concubine. .”
"Tiantian is still young and can't live without people." Lu Jing still refused to admit it.
"Lu Jing!"
Mr. Lu shouted Lu Jing's name loudly, which scared the people outside the door.
Lu Qinghe quickly looked at the door: "Grandpa, Xiao Jing..."
"Okay! You go do your thing!" Mr. Lu said angrily, "I have my own sense of discretion!"
"Then what are you going to do?" Seeing that it was quiet outside, Mr. Lu asked Lu Jing carefully, "I think Xiaoxia, a little girl, is capable and will not stay in a small mountain village like ours."
After a long while, Lu Jing said something.
"I'll be with her."
"I don't care about your business. When you grow up, I didn't let you join the army, but you insisted on joining the army. Later, I asked you to stay in the army, but you insisted on coming back. No matter what I said, you didn't listen. .”
Speaking of this, Mr. Lu sighed again: "I can't care about your affairs now, but you know something in your mind. If the girl doesn't want to, you can't force her."
There was not much expression on Lu Jing's handsome face, but he still nodded: "Grandpa, don't worry, I know everything."
"It would be best if you could listen." Mr. Lu clasped his hands behind his back and looked at Lu Jing like this.
No matter how dissatisfied he was with Lu Jing, he admired and loved his grandson the most.
"You should pay more attention to the affairs of the old house over there." Mr. Lu said meaningfully, "Our whole family will have to move there."
"I know." Lu nodded, "Tomorrow I will go to the old house with my elder brother to repair it and try to move in as soon as possible."
Mr. Lu nodded and suddenly lowered his voice: "I heard from Xiao Zhou that you found key evidence to vindicate me. What evidence is it?"
Before Lu Jing could say anything, Mr. Lu began to guess again: "Is it that receipt?"
"yes."
Mr. Lu's speculations came to an abrupt end. He widened his eyes and looked at Lu Jing in disbelief.
"Did you really find it? I put that receipt in the book, and it was all copied at that time..."
"Xia Yao found it."
Lu Jing lowered his head, making it difficult for people to see the complexity in his eyes.
"In Yongcheng County."
"It's actually there..." Mr. Lu sighed, "Is Uncle Rong okay? And Old Han..."
"Uncle Rong, everything is fine, but Grandpa Han's side..." Lu Jing said in a much lower tone, "Grandpa Han is not doing well."
Unlike Mr. Lu's previous good deeds, Mr. Han's was a proper family inheritance. The wealth accumulated from generation to generation has always been a thorn in the eyes of others.
"This old Han..." Mr. Lu shook his head, "I'll go see him later."
