As Lu Wuchuan said, the people of the Lu family are not difficult to get along with, at least on the surface.
The old man doesn't talk much, but his authority is there, and almost everyone listens to what he says.
Mother Lu is a typical loving mother. She always has a smile on her face when she looks at her children.
Despite her age, Lu Xuan seems to still have a cheerful and lively temperament.
Sister-in-law Lin Suyao said little, silently arranging household affairs, acting like a virtuous and virtuous daughter-in-law of a wealthy family.
Since it was decided to stay at Lu's house that night, it was still early, so Lu Wuchuan took Duan Mo out for a walk.
The Lu family covers a large area, especially the gardens, pavilions and buildings, and winding paths. When you are here, you feel like you have entered a classical garden.
"I live in that building." Lu Wuchuan pointed to a two-story building next to the main building, and then pointed to another building on the east side and said, "That's my brother's."
"Where's the eldest sister?" Duan Mo asked.
"She will stay in the main building when she comes back." Lu Wuchuan led her uphill.
"Privileging sons over daughters?" Even his son, who only lives at home for a few days a year, has his own small building. Why doesn't his daughter?
"Our house is not that rotten." Lu Wuchuan put his arm around her shoulders, "When I was a child, I thought living in the main building was too noisy, so I moved out."
"You only have a few people in your family. How can you still find it noisy in such a big house?"
The old couple from the Lu family, plus their two sons and one daughter, live on the fourth floor. Duanmo really can't imagine how noisy it will be.
"You don't know how annoying the elder sister's two children were when they were young." Lu Wuchuan's tone was full of disgust, "Especially her son, he always made trouble whenever he came back. When he first went to school, he tore up my textbooks.
Just kidding, I was so angry at the time that I feel a headache just thinking about it now."
"How old was he when you first went to school?" Duanmo asked curiously.
Lu Wuchuan thought for a moment and said, "Three years old."
"How old are your brother's children?"
"My daughter is twenty-four, and my son is one year younger than you. In fact, he is not even one year old. He was born in the summer."
...Well, they are all so...big.
"Don't worry, even if you are younger than them, you are still an elder. No one dares to be rude to you."
That wasn't what she was worried about, but the thought of being called aunt by someone older than her. Don't let the scene be too scary!
…
The next day, Lu Wuchuan actually took her to the school where he once studied, euphemistically saying that he wanted her to see with her own eyes her growth process.
In elementary school, junior high school, and high school, Duanmo saw his photo in a prominent position on the wall of honor at the school entrance.
Even though many years had passed, she still recognized the boy in the photo at a glance...yes, he could only be called a boy. At that time, he was only sixteen years old, but he was admitted to the top medical school in the country with excellent results.
Duan Mo touched the boy in the photo through the glass. Lu Wuchuan went over and took her hand and put it on his face: "The real person is right here, why are you touching the photo?"
After pinching his face, Duan Mo let go of his hand angrily: "I wish I had known you at that time. That little face is so tender, it must be very soft when pinched."
"I was 1.78 meters tall at that time, are you sure you can touch my face?"
When he was sixteen, she was only eight. How tall could an eight-year-old girl be?
The despised Duan Mo made a face at him, took out his mobile phone and took a selfie in front of the wall of honor, and then took a photo with him.
In the afternoon, the two of them walked on the university campus. The late spring air was mixed with the faint fragrance of flowers and grass, the clear river water was sparkling, and the newly sprouted twigs of the willow trees on the bank swayed gently with the breeze.
The fingers of their clasped hands were intertwined, and Duanmo suddenly felt that it would be good if the two of them kept walking like this.
Feeling the people around him approaching him, Lu Wuchuan tightened his hands slightly, as if he wanted to rub the whole little hand into his palm.
"Others don't think we are in a teacher-student relationship, right?" A discordant voice broke the tranquility at the moment.
Today, the little girl wore a long cotton and linen skirt, a simple half-sleeved white T-shirt, and a knitted cardigan. Her cheeks were lightly blushed with a natural blush, and she looked like a student who was still studying.
Comparing his trousers and shirt, Lu Wuchuan's face darkened: "You think I'm old?"
The aura of danger filled the air, and the desire to survive made Duanmo say without thinking: "I'm not old at all. I was just thinking that it would be a very romantic thing to have a teacher-student relationship."
"Teacher-student love... you have a beautiful idea." Lu Wuchuan suddenly stopped and turned to face her, "Eh? You didn't have a crush on any teacher, right?"
"How is that possible!" Duanmo pursed her lips, "The average age of the male teachers who have taught me is at least forty years old. In fact, think about it, you have been taking care of me from me to the city bureau, so you can be considered mine.
Teacher. Well... the teacher-student relationship plus the office romance, I suddenly feel that our relationship is very taboo!"
"What are you thinking about in your little head all day long?" Lu Wuchuan was annoyed by her, "Watch less TV series and novels from now on."
There was a notification tone from Duanmo's cell phone. She took it out, took a look, and said, "Your mother asked us when we will go back."
Lu Wuchuan raised his eyebrows: "When did you add my mother's WeChat account?"
"Last night, my eldest sister and sister-in-law were also added." Duan Mo put the phone back, "They wanted to add me, so I agreed. Is there any problem?"
If his family wants to add their WeChat account, she can't refuse, right?
"There's no problem, but you have to be prepared to be harassed by them at any time." After Lu Wuchuan finished speaking, he emphasized, "Especially the eldest sister."
Later, Duanmo finally realized what a sweet burden is. That is, someone will tell you from time to time to prevent heatstroke when it's hot, put on extra clothes when it's cold, eat on time, and sleep well...
In addition, he also asks you about your boyfriend from time to time, making it impossible for you to tell him or not.
Of course, this is all something to talk about later. Now she just feels that Lu Wuchuan's words are a bit exaggerated. It's just a WeChat message. Just reply when you have time. It won't delay anything.
It was already evening when the two of them returned to the Lu family's old house. Before they even entered the hall, they heard lively laughter inside.
In addition to the Lu family parents, Lu Xuan and Lin Suyao whom we met last night, there are a few new faces, and there is also a toddler Doudin walking around Mother Lu.
Lu Wuchuan rubbed his forehead and began to introduce Duan Mo.
Lu Xuan's son Xiao Yu and his wife, their daughter Xiao Qing, Lu Zhaoyuan's son Lu Jinghong, and that little Douding is Xiao Yu's daughter, her nickname is Doudou.
Duanmo had never been so embarrassed. Instead of calling her aunt, the adults called her aunt and aunt. What made her even more confused was that Xiao Qing actually held Doudou and taught her to call her uncle and grandma.
.
Thanks to Xiaodoudou's language skills not yet developed enough to be able to speak these words fluently, Duanmo still had a strong desire for a UFO to come and take her away at this time.
