The tractor was stopped near the steel plant dormitories.
If we drive any closer, we should meet some acquaintances from the factory. It's not good to be seen then.
On weekdays, some people would bring something to Uncle Mao for help, but that was all in private.
Lu Weiguo and Shi Tingyu had more things. Uncle Mao didn't take the quilt off for them. He just said, "Your parents know that you came back today and asked for leave from the factory. It's hard to get your things. I'll take this quilt." Take it back to the factory to your elder brother first, and ask him to bring it back after get off work. It's not convenient for me to send it to you now."
Lu Weiguo looked like he understood, and then took out the fried small yellow croaker from the canvas bag and handed it to Uncle Mao, "Uncle Mao, my wife fried this. We brought it to eat on the train. Don't dislike it." , take it back and give it to your grandson to try."
Uncle Mao's grandson is five years old, and he is very greedy.
Uncle Mao refused again and again, "Why don't you do this? You can leave this delicious thing made from deep-fried oil to your parents for them to try."
After a final push, Uncle Mao finally took the thing.
Materials were scarce at the moment, so the fried yellow croaker was a good thing, and seeing that both Lu Weiguo and his wife were clean people, he wouldn't dislike it at all.
Seeing Uncle Mao driving away on the tractor, Shi Tingyu quietly breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Lu Weiguo was there. She was most afraid of such greetings and concessions.
Lu Weiguo followed his memory and went to the steel factory dormitory.
At the gate of the dormitory yard, I met some old neighbors, many of whom were retired from steel plants.
He shouted like a grandma and introduced his wife by the way, which caused all the neighbors to exclaim.
"Weiguo, your daughter-in-law is so pretty. Look at her watery face. You are lucky."
"I said, why are you not satisfied with the person I introduced to you before? It turns out that she is waiting for such a beautiful wife."
Lu Weiguo knew that these people didn't have any bad intentions, they just liked chatting, especially since he hadn't been back for a long time, so he would be more enthusiastic when he saw them.
These people have basically grown up watching him, so they are already immune to his appearance, and their jokes about him are really not ambiguous at all.
Perhaps there was too much movement here, and a woman of about fifty years old came out of the corridor. She was wearing a gray-blue cotton-padded jacket, black trousers, and a gray-white apron tied around her waist. It's a short, no-dry hairstyle.
He looked very capable.
When the middle-aged woman saw Lu Weiguo and Shi Tingyu, she ran over and looked at Shi Tingyu with shock and disbelief in her eyes. It took a long time before she realized what she was doing. She patted Lu Weiguo's arm and said, "Wei Guo, this is your wife, why don’t you come into the house when you come back?”
The neighbors saw it and wisely got out of the way.
The second son of the old Lu family has not been back for such a long time, so he must be homesick.
Mother Lu was not afraid of dogs either. When she saw Shi Tingyu holding the dog, she quickly wanted to take over, "Xiao Yu, right? You're exhausted from the car ride. Just give this dog to Mom, and Mom will hold it."
Seeing Mother Lu's enthusiasm, Shi Tingyu glanced at Lu Weiguo. Lu Weiguo smiled and nodded to her. She gave the leash to Mother Lu and said, "Thank you, Mom."
Shi Tingyu's voice was clear, but not cold. This call made Mother Lu's heart burst with joy. She smiled so much that the wrinkles on her face opened, "Thank you, we are all one family."
Shi Tingyu looked at the many bags in his man's hand with his empty hands, and reached out to help him get it. Before Lu Weiguo could refuse, Mother Lu spoke: "It's okay, just let him take it. Isn't this a big thing for a big man?" arrive."
Lu Weiguo:......
This is really his mother.
The Lu family is on the second floor, a two-bedroom apartment. When they reached the entrance of the corridor, Mother Lu shouted: "Old Lu! Old Lu! Open the door quickly, our son and his daughter-in-law are here!"
Shi Tingyu heard the sound of a door opening, and a man in his fifties came down the stairs.
The man was at least 1.8 meters tall, with a slightly curved back, but even so, he still looked very tall.
The person who came was none other than Father Lu.
Lu Weiguo called dad.
Father Lu nodded in response and looked at Shi Tingyu expectantly.
The corridor was dim and Father Lu couldn't see Shi Tingyu's face clearly for a moment, but he knew that the person was his daughter-in-law.
Shi Tingyu also called Dad.
Father Lu snorted, his tone full of joy, and his voice was louder than when he just responded to Lu Weiguo.
When everyone entered the room, Shi Tingyu took off his hat, and a cute little face appeared in front of the two elders.
Father Lu and Mother Lu had met their in-laws. They were very good-looking. They thought that their daughter-in-law might be very beautiful, but they never expected that she would be so beautiful.
They don't know any adjectives, but they feel beautiful, like a fairy daughter.
Shi Tingyu also saw clearly what Lu's father looked like. He really looked like Lu Weiguo, especially his fierce eyebrows.
However, after spending time with Lu Weiguo for a long time, I got used to seeing Lu's father's face.
Father Lu was obviously dressed up today. He was afraid that his face would scare his younger daughter-in-law. You could tell by looking at his eldest daughter-in-law. She had been married to her eldest son for almost ten years, so she was still a little scared to see him.
Mother Lu laughed at him for thinking too much. According to her, her little daughter-in-law was not even afraid of her little son's face. How could she be afraid of the old man's face?
That is definitely not possible.
At this time, seeing Shi Tingyu's expression as normal, Mother Lu couldn't help but look at Father Lu proudly.
Look, she said that her daughter-in-law must not be afraid.
Father Lu picked up the luggage that Lu Weiguo had placed on the ground and moved it to the south room.
Lu Weiguo hurriedly said: "Dad, just put the things in the north room. Haven't you been living in this room all the time?"
Father Lu said: "Your wife is used to living in Jinling. It's cold here and the building doesn't have a kang. It'll be warmer if she sleeps in the south room. I'll live with your mother in the north room."
But in the end, he was stopped by Lu Weiguo, "Isn't there a stove in the main room? Just put it in the north room. If you put a thermos on it, it won't be cold at night."
Shi Tingyu also said: "Yes, parents, I am in good health and have been exercising. If you are not afraid of the cold, you should live in the south room."
They will stay here for a few days, and they will go to the village later. There will be a kang by then, so she can still bear it these days.
In the end, Lu Weiguo, who was strong and strong, did not turn around, so the bedding was changed.
There is a bed, a wardrobe and a table in the north room. The whole thing is very simple but very clean.
Shi Tingyu sat down by the bed and touched the quilt. It felt soft and looked like a new quilt.
Lu Weiguo explained: "My parents made this quilt for me when they found out we were getting married. They just saved it for us to cover when we come back to live during the Chinese New Year."
Until this moment, Shi Tingyu finally relaxed. In fact, she started to feel a little nervous when she got on the tractor.
After all, this was the first time she met the man's parents, and now she saw the attitude of Lu's father and Lu's mother. No matter whether the enthusiastic attitude was temporary or long-lasting, at least she was relaxed at this moment.
And she looked at Father Lu and Mother Lu, who probably really liked her.
Thinking about how they helped prepare cotton-padded clothes for their parents who were sent down to the countryside, she felt warm in her heart.
