Meng Li continued: "Take out the engagement letter from the Lu family. The Lu family will accompany you for eight taels of silver immediately. If you can't get it, go out and turn right."
The Lu family breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that this girl's feint was quite interesting.
Ma glared at Meng Li: "This is the Lu family, you have no right to speak."
"Lu Mu is my husband-in-law, and I am the daughter-in-law of the Lu family. If I am not qualified to speak, then you outsiders should get out as soon as possible."
Father Lu glanced at Meng Li appreciatively. The girl had been lying in bed for so many years. He thought she was not good at words, but she didn't expect to speak coherently.
He said: "If you don't want to give up, please ask Li Zheng to make a decision. Don't think that the orphans of the Meng family are easy to bully. We also have some brothers in the Lu family who will side with the Meng family. A quarrel will not be good for anyone. "
The Zhang family knew that even if they really invited Li Zheng to come, they could not take advantage of it. They could only walk out of the main room gritting their teeth and angrily.
"Lu Yingzhi, your family wants to do everything right. Sooner or later, our family will get back this loss." Zhang Laoer scolded.
Thinking that the two families had dinner together a few days ago, and they actually ended up in such a scene, Boss Lu also sighed, but there was no trace of regret on his face.
He waved his hand: "Just ask for it, our Lu family has a clear conscience."
Zhang Qiaoer glanced at Lu Mu, with longing and grievance on his soft and delicate face.
"Brother Lu Mu."
Lu Mu didn't seem to hear.
Zhang Qiaoer looked at Meng Li again, his eyes like an invisible knife with contempt.
A lame man with only a skeleton's skin on his face looked so ugly, and he came to steal her brother Lu Mu.
The key is that she can't win it yet. How can she be willing to lose to such a thing?
Meng Li raised her eyes quietly, her eyes as dark as the deep sea seemed to contain boundless coldness, which made Zhang Qiaoer's heart startled, and she subconsciously quickened her pace to leave with her family.
It finally calmed down here.
The atmosphere was silent for a while, and then Father Lu said: "You guys sit down, my second brother and I will cook."
Then he said to Meng Li: "Girl Li, don't take it personally. Although our Lu family is a small family, we still know what should be done and what should not be done. Since you two are married, follow the rules. Live a good life, if the Zhang family comes back again, I will stand in front of them and beat them back if they dare to be arrogant."
These words made Meng Li laugh.
The father and son went to the kitchen to get busy.
Meng Li looked at the Lu family.
The Lu family is a stone-tiled house with a relatively spacious quadrangle yard, which is well-organized. In one corner of the yard, a vegetable bed is dug, where vegetables such as ginger, onions, and garlic are planted. Some flowers and plants are planted in the middle, all surrounded by small fences. Chickens, ducks, etc. Running around the yard looking for food.
The living room is also large, sunny and bright. In the village, the conditions of this home are not bad.
Usually people from poor families would come to the house to act as husband-in-law. The Lu family had no choice but to send Lu Mu there.
Meng Li and Lu Mu sat in the main room, relatively speechless, and the atmosphere was a bit awkward for a while.
"Why don't you go help." Meng Li knew that Lu Mu always stayed by her side because of her elder brother's instructions.
She was in the house, so there was nothing to worry about.
"Giggle--"
"Quack quack——"
The chickens and ducks in the yard suddenly panicked, flapping their wings and fleeing in all directions. Some flew to the tiles, and some flew to the wall.
I saw Lu Cheng pouncing on a big rooster outside.
"Look where you run, you will definitely be killed in the stew pot today."
The big rooster knew that disaster was coming, so he tried his best to escape, but he couldn't catch it for a while.
Lu Mu stood up and went out. He seemed to be able to judge the rooster's evasive trajectory, and he grabbed the rooster's wings in a few seconds.
"This kind of thing still depends on the elder brother." Lu Cheng said with admiration.
Meng Li thought about how she fell off the wicker chair yesterday and Lu Mu caught her in the blink of an eye.
His movements were so fast that she didn't even see clearly how he grabbed the big cock just now.
Father Lu came out with a pot of hot water, a basin and a knife.
The brothers were killing chickens in the yard.
"Brother, how is your relationship with your sister-in-law?" Lu Cheng asked while cutting his hair.
Lu Mu: "It's okay."
A smile appeared on Lu Cheng's face: "That's good. I thought I had wronged you, but I think my sister-in-law is also a good character. The brothers and sisters in the second room of the Meng family are all honest people. You can live a good life in the Meng family. What's the matter? If you need help, don't be polite, just tell your family."
"The family is not rich, but life is better than that of the Meng family. Dad has recovered in the past two days, but he is still lying in bed recuperating. I don't have time to take care of you. You can bring more things back tomorrow."
Lu Mu said: "The Meng family can still live well. I can't serve dad like before, and I feel uneasy. Please stick with me. Even though I am in the Meng family, I will provide for dad until his death."
"Brother, it's not in vain that dad adopted you and raised you up." Lu Cheng said with emotion.
Although the brothers spoke in low voices, Meng Li heard them clearly.
This Lu Mu was someone who reported good things but not bad things. She also said that their relationship as husband and wife was good. What was good was that she was getting along with an NPC who was fulfilling her duties as a husband.
She left the main room. The east room just now was actually Lu Mu's room. She pushed the wheelchair in.
There are partitions inside, with a small hall on one side and a room inside.
Thinking that the two of them were already married, at least there was nothing to avoid in a room, Meng Li pushed the wheelchair into the inner room.
There is a large bed, a wardrobe, and a desk placed next to the window. On the desk are pen holders, some papers, and ink sticks that are about to be used up. They are all of low quality and can barely be used.
In ancient times, pens, ink, and paper were expensive, and it was considered a luxury for ordinary farmers to be able to afford the lowest-quality ones.
Another thought came to Meng Li's mind. So Lu Mu was literate and a man of culture. This was an unexpected thing about her husband.
Meng Li didn't find what she wanted on the table and bed, so she turned her attention to the three drawers of the desk.
These three drawers are all locked, and each lock is very strong. It can be seen that Lu Mu attaches great importance to the things in the drawer.
Could what she was looking for be inside? Although that thing was not a precious thing, it was not ruled out that Lu Mu, as a man, was too embarrassed to use it, so he hid it.
Meng Li reached out to a drawer.
"What to do?" At this time, a deep voice came from my ears, with a vague pressure that could not be expressed.
Meng Li's heart beat faster, and in a blink of an eye she saw it was Lu Mu.
Lu Mu stood at the inner opening, his eyes fell on her hands, which were dark and cool. There was no displeasure on his face, but this message was conveyed all over his body.
