Xu Heng looked at Lu Yufang like this and felt his heart aching.
He knew she was working hard behind the scenes.
In the past six months, he had been trying to get the approval of the clan elders, hoping that they would approve of this marriage, but in the end, they came up with this trick.
It was because he thought too simply.
He should have guessed that the clan elders would not agree to this marriage so easily.
After struggling in his heart for a moment, he looked at Lu Yufang.
"If I were not from the Xu family and I had nothing, would you still be willing to marry me?"
Lu Yufang raised her eyes.
"Originally, from the beginning, I deliberately stayed away from you due to the disparity in status between the two of us. If possible, I would rather you were just a child of an ordinary family, but you are not."
"I see!"
Xu Heng looked at Mrs. Xu and knelt down straight towards her.
"Mother, please forgive me for being unfilial. Please also ask mother to bring me a message to the Xu family elders. Xu Heng will voluntarily leave the Xu family and will no longer be a Xu family member. Please also ask the clan elders to remove me from the family tree."
Mrs. Xu opened her mouth in surprise.
"Heng'er?!"
Xu Heng said again, "I have made up my mind, and I ask my mother to make it happen!"
This time, he was determined.
When he was in the Xu family, everything he did had to be discussed and decided by the clan elders before he could proceed with his next plan. Rather than doing this, it would be better to be free from the Xu family.
After he passed the provincial examination and became an official, he would still have to be disciplined by the clan elders.
When Mrs. Xu came to her senses, instead of being angry, she helped him up with a look of relief on her face.
"My Heng'er has grown up and has his own responsibilities. He is no longer the puppet at the mercy of the family. Mom is very happy for you." She looked at Xu Heng and said with a smile, "In this case, it's easy to leave. Leave, and at the worst, my mother will move back to Nanping Town with you."
Xu Heng's expression changed, with guilt on his face.
"mother……"
Mrs. Xu waved her hand.
"Mom has had enough of those sanctimonious old guys. The Xu family is no longer the simple Xu family it used to be. Elders from all clans want to be the boss. Your father is in his current position, which is actually very embarrassing. You and I Dad, you are the only child, and you have already left the Xu family. What’s the point of me and your father staying in the clan? It’s just a matter of time.”
Then he looked at Lu Shoucheng and Jiang Xiuqin.
"Two in-laws, I take back what I just said about entering the family tree. Without the interference of the Xu family elders, I wonder if you would still be willing to agree to this marriage?"
The couple looked at Lu Yufang, as if she would agree if she nodded.
Under the expectant gazes of everyone, Lu Yufang lowered her head with a shy face.
"Mom and dad make the decision."
Xu Heng has already done this and is willing to leave the Xu family for her, so what reason does she have to back down?
Lu Shoucheng laughed and hurriedly welcomed Mrs. Xu and Xu Heng into the room.
"Mother-in-law, son-in-law, come in and sit down quickly."
Since Lu Yufang was about to be sixteen, the two parties decided to get married in the spring of the following year. Xu Heng was determined to break away from the family tree, so he settled down in Nanping.
The provincial examination is held once every three years, and it was only held last year. The next one will be in the autumn of the year after tomorrow. Anyway, he is not in a hurry to rush to the provincial capital now. After getting married, he can still spend some time with Lu Yufang.
When Chu Yue learned of this result, her face was full of appreciation.
"Master Xu has always had a gentle temperament, but I didn't know that he could be so straightforward."
Lu Yufang smiled.
"Rabbits can bite people when they are anxious."
Chu Yue curled her lips and said, "Now that your marriage has been decided, you can just wait for the wedding date with peace of mind. Mr. Xu has made such a big determination, and you will have a good life with him in the future."
Lu Yufang nodded, "That's natural."
…
Zhang Qiuying went back to recuperate for another fifteen days. During these fifteen days, Lu Dagui was rushing to work, whether at home or in the workshop, for fear that she would be exhausted, so that people in the workshop began to speculate whether Zhang Qiuying Pregnant.
After finally surviving the difficult fifteen days, Lu Dagui took Zhang Qiuying to the medical clinic that morning.
"Doctor Chu, please check on Qiuying quickly. Is she feeling better?"
Chu Yue smiled and asked Zhang Qiuying to stretch out her hand and put it on her wrist.
After a moment, she raised the corners of her lips.
"congratulations!"
Lu Dagui, who had been paying attention to Chu Yue and Zhang Qiuying, was stunned when he heard these three words.
"Congratulations?"
Chu Yue nodded, looked at him and said, "Brother Dagui is going to be a father again. This is just congratulations."
After hearing the news, Lu Dagui didn't know whether he was happy or worried.
"Can……"
Didn't Xinghe's wife say before that Zhang Qiuying's body was too weak and not suitable for pregnancy?
Knowing what he was worried about, Chu Yue immediately explained, "Brother Dagui, don't worry. After two months of conditioning, Sister Qiuying's health is much better than before. But now that she is pregnant, she has to be careful about everything, especially the first three months." months."
Originally, now was not the best time to get pregnant, after all, Zhang Qiuying's physical condition was not the best yet, but now that she was pregnant, she could only protect the fetus.
I'm lucky that I wasn't pregnant the same time I fainted.
Lu Dagui nodded hurriedly.
"Do you want to stay in bed?"
"If you don't feel any discomfort, you don't have to stay in bed." After Chu Yue finished speaking, she wrote a prescription for miscarriage and gave it to Lu Dagui, "This is miscarriage. Let's get some medicine from the hospital and drink it. If you have any questions, you can come to me. I will not leave Nanping Town recently, either at the hospital or at home."
Lu Dagui took the prescription from Chu Yue with slightly trembling hands, nodded and said, "Okay, I'll remember it."
Zhang Qiuying finally recovered from the news of her pregnancy. She looked down at her still flat belly and looked at Chu Yue in disbelief.
"Doctor Chu, is this true?"
Chu Yue said with certainty, "Of course it is true. Last time Yue Qian was not sure, I asked Brother Dagui to pay more attention to your body. Sister Qiuying should pay more attention to it in the future."
Hearing this, Zhang Qiuying showed joy.
It has been more than half a year since she and Lu Dagui got married. During these more than half a year, apart from being physically unlucky, the two of them really struggled every day. Even when Lu Dagui was in the mood, he had to do it two or three times a night.
Although she felt that her body was a little overwhelmed, she still cooperated. The main reason was that she wanted to be pregnant with their child as soon as possible, but her wish was not fulfilled and there was no movement in her stomach.
Recently, due to physical reasons, Lu Dagui had been struggling less. Unexpectedly, she became pregnant.
It really complied with that sentence, unintentionally inserting willows into the shadow.
Zhang Qiuying gently touched her belly, and the corners of her lips raised a beautiful curve.
"very nice."
Her and Dagui's hard work these days finally came to fruition.
Chu Yue looked at Zhang Qiuying's happy face, and was very happy for them, "Sister Qiuying, although you are responsible for things in the workshop, you must do what you can. If necessary, you can train one or two helpers. I’ll help you take care of the workshop, so I don’t have to do everything myself.”
Zhang Qiuying hurriedly responded, "Okay, I'll remember it. Thank you Dr. Chu for planning it for me."
Lu Dagui took the medicine, picked up Zhang Qiuying from her seat, and said to Chu Yue, "Daughter-in-law Xinghe, let's go back to the workshop first."
After saying that, he turned around and left the hospital.
