Chapter 1289 Pride
Chapter 1289 Pride
Lu Mingzhu said helplessly, "Mom, what are you thinking? I'm really not that bad off!"
It's just about saving money by taking free food.
Food abroad is really expensive, especially since they don't like foreign tastes.
While Lu Mingzhu patted Madam Lu's back, Song Mingyi also helped to calm Madam Lu down.
Lu Mingzhu: "Later, with the help of the community, I took Niannian to classes and obtained many certificates, and then found a job with these certificates."
"Later, I met a benefactor, who is now the big boss of my overseas company. She helped me a lot, and I got to my current position by relying on the skills I learned from my sister-in-law and brother."
"Mom, I can earn a lot of money now, aren't I amazing?"
Lu Mingzhu deliberately made a witty remark in front of Madam Lu.
As expected, this amused Madam Lu, who was always proud and unwilling to admit defeat. However, no matter how much she earned, she could never outdo her brother.
At that time, everyone assumed that she should just be a rich girl.
But now, Mingzhu can stand alone as a wall.
Mrs. Lu hugged Lu Mingzhu in her arms: "Our Mingzhu has really grown up... She can earn so much money on her own, that's amazing! I've only given birth to you and your brother in my whole life, and you are both my pride."
"Now that I have such a good daughter-in-law like Mingyi, and you're back too, Mom is really happy."
Madam Lu's eyes were misty as she held Lu Mingzhu in one arm and Song Mingyi by the hand in the other.
Song Mingyi laughed: "Now that you're back, you're not leaving anymore. Our whole family will be living together. With Niannian here, the house will be so lively. Mom, didn't you always complain that it was too quiet?"
Madam Lu laughed, feigning reproach: "Who told you to have one child? There's also Xiao Wan. If you don't have any more, my goddaughter won't have any either. I'm so old, I can't even take care of a child for you two!"
Every time Hong Su brought her daughter over to play, Madam Lu was delighted.
It's a pity that I've come here far too infrequently.
Hong Su is really busy in the six states of Shenwu right now.
Lu Mingzhu: "Then Niannian is going to cause a huge uproar!"
Everyone burst into laughter, and Lu Shenxing smiled gently.
He held Song Mingyi's hand. No matter what, their family was reunited, which was wonderful.
We can discuss the remaining questions later; there's no rush.
They experienced too much emotional shock today, and they will be very tired once they calm down.
Madam Lu, holding Lu Mingzhu's hand, said, "You'll sleep with me tonight! It's been so long since Mom slept with you."
Lu Mingzhu: "Then I'll bring a little tail along to sleep with me."
The little tail is naturally Nian Nian.
Niannian had just finished playing with her brothers when they toured their study, laboratory, pharmacy, and so on, leaving her dizzy and overwhelmed.
My brothers are so good at everything!
Niannian ran out and overheard their two sentences. She immediately lay down on the stairs and howled.
"Mommy, Grandma, don't forget Niannian! Niannian wants to sleep with you too!"
She spoke with a serious expression, as if afraid of being forgotten.
They couldn't help but laugh. Lu Mingzhu said, "Okay, Mommy will take you to wash up later."
Madam Lu smiled and said, "No rush, let me show you your room."
For these few steps, Mrs. Lu's health has deteriorated, and her knees are not good, so she always takes the elevator.
The group went up together and saw Niannian's little head: "Mommy!"
Lu Mingzhu smiled and took Niannian's hand. Madam Lu said gently, "Niannian, what kind of house do you like? Tell Grandma tomorrow, and Grandma will find a construction team for you. You can choose a few rooms, and we'll decorate it nicely for you."
“Your brothers all have their own study rooms. Although our Niannian is still young and in kindergarten, she should have one too. In the future, whatever your brothers have, you will have too.”
Niannian cheered, "Yay! I love Grandma so much!"
Mrs. Lu laughed so hard her teeth disappeared from her eyes.
Being with them makes me feel a few years younger.
Song Mingyi and Lu Shenxing watched with smiles. Lu Shenxing took the initiative to step forward and push open the door: "Mingzhu, this is your room."
The door creaked open, and a rush of fresh air wafted out.
Everything was exactly the same as the year she left.
Lu Mingzhu often leaves her things lying around, but she doesn't like others entering her room, so Madam Lu personally cleans and tidies up Lu Mingzhu's house.
The same applies to these now.
After Lu Mingzhu's accident, Madam Lu locked herself in for a long time, constantly tidying up Lu Mingzhu's scattered and carelessly left things behind.
It was as if she hadn't left yet.
Lu Mingzhu's tears rolled down her cheeks instantly.
“Mingzhu, your room is cleaned regularly. Mom knows you will definitely come back, so the quilt, sheets and pillowcases are changed every few days as usual.”
"These were just changed yesterday. Mom knows you like this sheet the most, so I specially took it out for you, washed it and dried it. We bought several sets of the same one."
"Mingzhu, do you like it?"
Madam Lu's loving eyes held a capacity for tolerance and gentleness that could encompass the entire world.
Lu Mingzhu's tears fell uncontrollably: "I like it, I like it..."
Niannian clung to the door frame, peeking out her little head: "Mommy, this is your room when you were little! It's so pretty!"
Song Mingyi rubbed Niannian's head: "You can design your own room in the future. When you're little, you can sleep with your mom first."
Niannian happily exclaimed, "Okay! Thank you, Auntie!"
Despite the chaos and lack of preparation, it was still a happy night.
Mrs. Lu and Lu Mingzhu had so much to talk about that Niannian fell into a deep sleep to the lullaby of their conversation.
Similarly, Song Mingyi and Lu Shenxing were still awake.
The two were exhausted from a long day of travel and emotional turmoil, and it was only now that they had finally calmed down.
Song Mingyi lay on the bed, hugging Lu Shenxing's waist.
"Honey, even now I still feel like it's all a dream..."
She really couldn't believe that this time, as soon as they received the news and rushed back, they actually saw Lu Mingzhu.
Lu Mingzhu disappeared for five years.
Lu Shenxing smiled and gently embraced Song Mingyi, holding her in his arms.
"Don't worry, it's not a dream. Mingzhu has really returned."
Lu Shenxing gently kissed Song Mingyi's forehead, his deep eyes filled with tenderness: "If Mrs. Lu doesn't believe me, give me a pinch on the waist?"
Song Mingyi laughed and slapped Lu Shenxing's hand away: "How can you do that? You're not allowed to pinch me, but I'm allowed to pinch you."
Lu Shenxing: "That won't do!"
The two are an old married couple, but they still have a very good relationship, just like when they were first in love.
On another note, Lu Shenxing thought of something else.
"Since Mingzhu really did return to Haicheng, how come we haven't heard anything from the people we sent out?"
They only found out after He Lingchuan told them.
Song Mingyi also found it strange: "I'll ask tomorrow. Logically speaking, this shouldn't be the case."
Lu Shenxing nodded. They had been preoccupied with the death of Ming Jinyan and had no time to focus on this matter, which was why they hadn't been able to keep up.
