Quick wear: cannon fodder is a bit strong

Lu Buqi looked at Cheng Ruizhu's face, feeling uneasy, fearing that his young wife would get angry and leave.

I had no choice but to wipe the sofa with my sleeves and soften my voice and said carefully:

"Ruizhu, sit down. Sit here."

"...I don't know what's going on with that Qian, I've never seen her before. My sister-in-law is often crazy and does whatever she wants. Don't take it to heart."

"It doesn't matter,"

Cheng Ruizhu felt that there must be some reason why a woman dared to be so reckless, so she didn't rush to take action.

Find out the reason first.

Cheng Ruizhu took out the gift she brought: a ginseng that looked about 200 years old. She used the pool water in the space to water it overnight. She didn't know what the effect would be.

It’s packed in a wooden box, so it should be presentable?

"Uncle Lu, I dug this up on Maoer Mountain when I was herding cattle. Please don't mind."

Father Lu's eyes widened.

Oh my God, this big, plump, and juicy carrot with fresh mud on its roots, you call this "don't dislike it"?

I’m afraid this bite may not bring him back to life!

Father Lu suddenly felt that his daughter-in-law didn’t seem to be a normal person either. What should he do?

But what does it have to do with him? He's not marrying her. As long as his son likes her, that's all!

Anyway, he saw that this girl had a straight figure and clear eyes. Compared with the eldest son's wife, she was a world apart. It seemed that the youngest son was more blessed.

Just then, Aunt Yang, the waitress at home, brought over tea.

Father Lu said, "...Well, daughter-in-law, please sit for a while. I'll go upstairs to get something and come down."

Cheng Ruizhu: “…”

Just now it was "Ruizhu", and now it's daughter-in-law. Is this rhythm of the Lu family consistent?

While Lu's father was going upstairs, Lu Buqi quickly introduced Chen Fengchun's situation.

His eldest sister-in-law used to sing in a small local art troupe in Sichuan Province. When his eldest brother Lu Buli went to the grassroots to inspect work, he was spotted by Chen Fengchun when the grassroots organized an art performance.

It just so happened that the guards assigned by the local authorities were responsible for protecting Lu Buli that day, so she took advantage of the opportunity and sneaked into the lounge, causing another noise.

Lu Buli was on his lunch break and had taken off his coat, so he couldn't explain it clearly. Chen Fengchun insisted that Lu Buli had invited her. In the end, in order to avoid causing a worse impact, Lu Buli had no choice but to marry her.

Although Lu Buli was unwilling, she was just a woman, so he just married her anyway.

As a result, on the wedding day, Chen Fengchun was probably afraid that Lu Buli would not want to consummate the marriage with her, so she simply gave him a strong drug.

That night, his elder brother was so exhausted that he nearly died. After that, his elder brother rarely came home. At first, Chen Fengchun lived in fear for a while, but soon she found out she was pregnant, and her back straightened up.

After his son Lu Chuan was born, he completely let himself go.

She immediately sold the job in the city's art troupe that the Lu family had worked so hard to get her transferred to, and stopped working, becoming a rich and idle person in the capital.

If Lu Buli didn't come back, she would start making trouble everywhere. Once he came back, she would cry and make a fuss until Lu Buli left home again. This vicious cycle continued.

"Lu Chuan is a spoiled kid..." Lu Buqi said with a sigh.

"Uncle, have you ever considered taking the child in to raise?" Cheng Ruizhu was curious. After all, he was a descendant of the Lu family.

"We brought it up before, but the woman refused. She told everyone that the Lu family had taken the child away and separated them from their child."

"The most important thing is that the child himself doesn't want to..."

"So close to his mother?" She felt that Chen Fengchun didn't seem to love this child that much. Just now, when Lu Buli was about to catch the child, she didn't sense any nervousness from Chen Fengchun.

Lu Buqi smiled bitterly: "Because Chen Fengchun doesn't care about him and does whatever he wants, he has to be disciplined here, so..."

So, this child is crooked from the beginning.

"Oh," Cheng Ruizhu understood and felt relieved. It had nothing to do with her anyway, so she just listened to it as gossip.

At this moment, Mr. Lu came downstairs holding a large box.

"These are the dowry given by the child's mother. She said she would leave them to her daughter-in-law."

Father Lu stroked the smooth box, his eyes revealing a hint of nostalgia and melancholy. He paused for a second, then opened the box, revealing a layer of jewels and precious stones.

Father Lu seemed to feel some pain in his eyes, his eyes were dim, and he quickly closed his eyes. He pushed the box directly to Cheng Ruizhu:

"The eldest daughter-in-law is like that. The mother of the children would not be willing to leave these to her. Now these are yours. Take them back and take a look at them slowly."

He took out another passbook.

"This is the betrothal gift from the Lu family. I'm a rough old man and I'm not very good at handling these things. You two can buy whatever you want for your wedding."

Cheng Ruizhu opened it and saw: Wow, a full 30,000 yuan.

She reasonably suspected that she also received double the betrothal gifts - what should she do if she suddenly became a winner in life?

The slight unpleasantness I felt when I first walked in was instantly wiped away. I also felt a little embarrassed, thinking that the gift I brought was a bit perfunctory.

It’s just a white radish—how about another one?

After dinner, Lu Buqi did not take her to stay in a guesthouse, but took her to a courtyard house.

"This is the house my mother left me. It will be yours from now on. The title deed is with you."

"Before I came, I asked Aunt Yang to bring people to clean up and clear out two rooms. If you don't mind, you can stay here tonight."

Cheng Ruizhu: “…”

Great, now she has a courtyard house. It seems she can finally lie down in this little world again.

"There's just one thing that's not good..." Lu Buqi looked a little distressed.

"How to say?"

"My mother left two of these courtyard houses, one for me and one for my brother. Um...the two courtyards are next to each other..."

Got it. That troublesome Chen Fengchun lives next door.

It's a bit disgusting. But will Cheng Ruizhu care?

"If it really doesn't work, you can find a chance to exchange seats with someone else later..." Lu Buqi suggested.

"No, I like this house very much."

Cheng Ruizhu smiled and said:

"Would you like to go in and take a look?" She took the initiative. Lu Buqi's eyes lit up:

"Can I come in?"

Cheng Ruizhu: “…”

Does this sound like something someone who just gave away a house would say? But why is it so inexplicably cute?

The house was large, a bit run-down and empty, but it was kept very clean. It was obvious that Aunt Yang had put a lot of thought into it.

The two of them walked in the courtyard for a while, checked each room one by one, and then went into a room where a bed and some daily necessities were already placed to rest.

Cheng Ruizhu opened the box and saw a pair of emerald green and transparent jade bracelets. They were obviously of excellent water content and were not inferior to the ones she had looted in the palace of the previous small world.

There is also a pair of dragon and phoenix jade pendants, which are exquisitely carved, especially the dragon claws and phoenix tail, which are vivid and seem to be able to swing at any time.

Cheng Ruizhu wanted to hand the dragon-shaped jade pendant to Lu Buqi - isn't that what one dragon and one phoenix means?
