Lu Jianguo never expected that Wang Caizhi would take his money.
After he couldn't find the money, he had a big fight with Wang Caizhi, but she refused to admit it.
If he couldn't find the money, Lu Jianguo had no choice but to borrow it. Fortunately, he had a job and was not afraid of not paying back the money. He borrowed two hundred yuan in one morning.
But the remaining three hundred yuan has not yet arrived.
Lu Jianguo asked, "How much did Duan Mingjie pay?"
Lu Yao said angrily, "It's over."
Hearing this, Lu Jianguo was dumbfounded.
After calming down, Lu Jianguo asked, "Where did his money come from?"
"You don't need to know!"
"I'm afraid that you will be implicated by him!"
Lu Yao was too lazy to explain to him, "Don't let Wang Caizhi know that it was my man who paid for the hospital bills. Also, remember to pay back the money!"
When the father and daughter returned from buying food, Lu Jianguo handed Duan Mingjie two hundred yuan.
Duan Mingjie looked at Lu Yao.
Lu Jianguo's tone was unkind, "What are you looking at her for? My daughter doesn't need you to pay for medical treatment!"
Lu Yao snatched it away without saying a word and put it in Duan Mingjie's pocket.
Seeing her father return the money, Lu Susu felt relieved.
"Susu?"
Suddenly, a young man appeared outside the ward.
Hearing the sound, Lu Yao and the others looked outside the door.
Seeing the visitor, Lu Yao stood up in surprise, "Li Dong!"
Seeing his wife's happy appearance, Duan Mingjie frowned and looked at the young man.
The man wears a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, has a gentle appearance, fair skin, and is wearing blue work clothes. He is visually estimated to be 1.75 meters tall.
Li Dong was also surprised when he saw Lu Yao, and then strode over, "Yao Yao, when did you come back?"
"I've been back for a few days." After saying that, Lu Yao asked, "Are you here to see my sister?"
After speaking, Lu Yao looked at Lu Susu.
The envy and loneliness on Lu Susu's face flashed across her face, and Lu Yao was stunned for a moment.
Lu Susu smiled at Li Dong and said, "Brother Li, sit down quickly."
Li Dong did not sit down. He walked to the bedside, leaned over slightly, and asked with concern, "Susu, how do you feel?"
Lu Susu's face turned red, "I'm fine."
Li Dong lifted the thing in his hand and said, "I know you like grapes and peaches, so I'll eat more later."
Lu Susu nodded, "Thank you, Brother Li."
"Silly boy, why are you thanking me? In my heart, you are my biological sister."
My dear sister...
These three words instantly brought Lu Susu's full mood to the bottom.
She held her lips and said nothing.
Lu Yao could see all the changes in Lu Susu's expression.
She frowned.
Lu Jianguo brought a stool for Li Dong to sit on, "You are really thoughtful."
Li Dong thanked her before sitting down, "Yao Yao is my friend. Before going to the countryside, she specifically asked me to take good care of Su Su. Besides, Su Su is well-behaved and sensible, and is more lovable than my own sister."
When Li Dong spoke, Lu Yao's eyes looked towards Lu Susu intentionally or unintentionally.
But Lu Susu kept her head down, making it difficult for people to read her emotions.
Lu Yao looked away and smiled at Li Dong, "I should still thank you."
Li Dong waved his hand, "Do we still need to say thank you?"
Hearing this, Lu Yao thumped and quickly looked at Duan Mingjie beside her.
Duan Mingjie smiled at her and squeezed her hand.
Lu Yao breathed a sigh of relief.
Li Dong saw the interaction between the two and was stunned for several seconds before he found his voice.
"Yao Yao, what is this?"
Lu Yao grabbed Duan Mingjie's hand and introduced, "This is my lover, Duan Mingjie."
With that said, Lu Yao introduced Duan Mingjie generously, "This is my best friend, Li Dong."
Duan Mingjie took a step forward and reached out to Li Dong, "Hello."
Li Dong stood up in a daze, suppressed his inner emotions, held Duan Mingjie's hand, and said, "Hello."
Duan Mingjie retreated to Lu Yao.
The smile on Li Dong's face was a little forced, and he said half-jokingly, "Yao Yao, when did you get married, you didn't invite me to a wedding banquet. Are you afraid that I can't afford the contribution?"
Lu Yao helplessly laughed, "Of course not. The marriage was a hasty one, and my father and the others just found out about it."
Li Dong forced a smile and looked at Duan Mingjie.
A very rough man, completely incompatible with Lu Yao.
He didn't know what Lu Yao saw in this man, or that the educated youth who went to the countryside would find a local man to marry.
He had waited for so many years, but it was all in vain.
Duan Mingjie stood up straight and did not flinch when Li Dong looked him over, without any dissatisfaction.
Lu Yao bit her lip, grabbed his hand and held his fingers together.
Li Dong lowered his head and saw the hands of the two of them intertwined. He lowered his head and smiled, "It's okay. Although we can't have a wedding banquet, we still have to prepare some money."
Lu Yao nodded with a smile and joked, "Then I won't be polite. When you get married, I will have to follow suit. I can't bear to suffer."
Li Dong raised his finger and pointed at her, "You still don't want to suffer."
Lu Yao smiled and said nothing.
Li Dong asked about Lu Susu's situation.
"Still waiting for notification from the doctor."
Li Dong sat for a while and then stood up to say goodbye, "I just found out that Susu was sick. I came over during lunch time to check on you. I have to go back to work quickly."
Lu Yao: "I'll give it to you."
After saying that, Lu Yao took Duan Mingjie's hand, obviously asking Duan Mingjie to go with him.
Lu Jianguo said, "Duan Mingjie, you stay and watch Su Su. I have something to say to Li Dong."
Lu Yao frowned and opened her mouth to retort, but Duan Mingjie pinched the back of her hand and said, "You go with dad, I'm here to watch Su Su."
Lu Yao bit her lip, knowing that Duan Mingjie didn't want to embarrass her.
"I'll be right back."
Duan Mingjie nodded lightly.
The three people walked to the corridor and met Li Xiaoying. Li Xiaoying told them that Lu Susu's indicators met the requirements for surgery and she could have surgery tomorrow morning.
Lu Yao and Lu Jianguo were very happy.
Let Lu Jianguo go back and tell Su Su the good news.
Before Lu Jianguo left, he specifically asked Li Dong to wait for him outside.
Outside the hospital.
Lu Yao and Li Dong stood face to face.
Li Dong smiled first and said, "I didn't expect you to get married so soon. I thought..."
Before she said the next words, Lu Yao smiled and said, "You thought I would come back here to find a well-matched person to get married to, right?"
Li Dong shook his head and laughed, "When it comes to being a good match, there are not many people in Chen City who can match the Dong family's granddaughter."
Dong Na's grandfather and father have great prestige in Chen City. This prestige is not only due to their high status, but also because of their contributions to Chen City.
According to legend, Dong Na's grandfather was an upright official, helped many local poor people, and was very popular among the people.
The Dong family also attached great importance to the education of their children, and they cultivated a talented girl named Dong Na who was proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting.
But no one expected that Dong Na just went on a long trip and married a clerk, Lu Jianguo, when she came back.
It broke the hearts of many young talents at that time.
Now, Lu Yao is married to a mud-legged man again. If the people of Chen City find out, rumors will spread again.
It can be seen that neither mother nor daughter care about family status.
Although he didn't know Duan Mingjie's extraordinary qualities, he could see Lu Yao's dependence on Duan Mingjie.
He had been waiting for her for many years, and had a crush on her for many years, but it was all in vain.
Lu Yao smiled, "There is no such thing as incompatibility in marriage, as long as two people are happy."
Li Dong looked into her clear and beautiful eyes and suppressed the sadness in his heart, "Are you happy then?"
Lu Yao nodded, "I'm very happy, Duan Mingjie treats me very well."
Li Dong smiled and said, "That's good, hurry up and don't keep him waiting."
Lu Yao pinched her fingers, feeling a little embarrassed.
Seeing that she was hesitant to speak, Li Dong smiled and said, "If you have anything to say, just say it. You can't say that you are married, because we will no longer be friends."
Lu Yao: "I really want to ask you for a favor."
