Chapter 293 Opposition
But Mr. Cheng smiled happily and said, "Yes, that's the good thing about our Ruolan. She's been sensible since she was little and has never caused me or her mother any worry. She's also very hardworking."
"To be honest, Comrade Lu, even if we're worried about her, her mother and I are still worried because she's all alone in the countryside, and we're not around to help her. We're just thinking that if we could find her a job in the city, she could go back to the city and we wouldn't have to worry about her anymore."
Lu Yuanqing exchanged a glance with Lu Mingdong without showing any emotion.
This statement reveals a lot!
So, did Cheng's father know their identities, or not?
If they knew, then the deliberate intent was too obvious.
If you don't know, then what does he mean?
Lu Yuanqing's mind raced, but his expression remained calm as he smiled and replied, "Yes! What parent doesn't worry about their child? I understand, I understand!"
Upon hearing this, Mr. Cheng smiled and said, "That's right. Since Ruolan went to the countryside, her mother hasn't been able to sleep or eat properly. She's worried that Ruolan isn't doing well there. To be frank, which might offend you, Comrade Lu, Ruolan is getting older. As her parents, we're worried that she won't be able to find a partner in the countryside. But the hope of her returning to the city is slim. We can't just watch our daughter remain unmarried for the rest of her life!"
Lu Yuanqing smiled, feigning ignorance, and said, "Yes!"
She's afraid of marrying a country bumpkin!
Very good! Although Lu Yuanqing still had some doubts, he was now certain of the purpose of Cheng's parents' visit to the village.
It seems that Lu Mingnan and Cheng Ruolan's relationship is about to fall through.
It has to be said that after Lu Yuanqing guessed this possibility, he was not only not sad, but also a little happy.
However, while he was happy, he was also worried that Lu Mingnan would be upset.
This time it's probably really going to be tough.
Cheng's father, for reasons unknown, acted very approachable and kind, and kept talking to Lu Yuanqing on the oxcart.
Lu Yuanqing has always disliked dealing with people who keep things a secret.
And Cheng's father was one of the best among them.
Talking to this kind of person is exhausting.
So, once they got back to the village, Lu Mingdong decisively signaled to drive the oxcart to Zhao Zhongcai's house, leaving the two troublemakers to Zhao Zhongcai, and then he and Lu Mingdong couldn't wait to go home.
"Third Brother, you're back!" Xie Qianyu was holding and comforting her child at the door when she saw Lu Yuanqing looking like he was being chased by a dog, which she found very strange.
Lu Yuanqing disregarded everything else and asked, "Is Yuanbo home?"
“No, it’s in the field!” Xie Qianyu replied.
Lu Yuanqing: "That's alright."
"Go and call Xiao Nan back." Lu Yuanqing turned to Lu Mingdong and assigned him the task.
After saying that, he walked home.
The Cheng family parents have come with ill intentions. Should he do something, or do nothing at all? That is the question.
Xie Qianyu looked at Lu Yuanqing's back with a puzzled expression and asked Lu Mingdong about the situation with great curiosity.
Lu Mingdong shrugged and said casually, "Cheng Ruolan's parents have come to the village."
"What?" Xie Qianyu hadn't expected this situation and asked with a touch of naivety, "Is it because of Xiao Nan and Ruolan's marriage?"
Lu Mingdong shook his head. "The father of Cheng who came back to the village with us said a lot, so I can tell you for sure that this marriage is probably not going to happen."
Xie Qianyu frowned. "Objection? Why?"
Lu Mingnan is a perfectly fine young man. When he goes to a matchmaking event, he's the kind of person who gets asked a lot of questions. When did he become someone else's object of disdain?
