Chapter 355 Lu Yuanbo's Side Story 1
Chapter 355 Lu Yuanbo's Side Story 1
Lu Yuanbo raised his hand and swore to the heavens that his life had been quite smooth.
Although his parents died early, and he even almost starved to death during a famine year.
But he just had a pretty smooth life.
An elder in his hometown said that his hardship had finally come to an end; he had a tough childhood, but as he grew up, everything went smoothly for him.
But Lu Yuanbo felt that he was not suffering at all.
Because he has an older brother, an older brother who enabled his family to survive and even live very well, a brother who transformed their lives.
Lu Yuanqing!
This name evokes deep emotion in Lu Yuanbo whenever he mentions it.
Without Lu Yuanqing, his family would not have been able to get through the disaster year safely.
Without Lu Yuanqing, they wouldn't be living such a good life.
Lu Yuanbo often felt that the person lying dejectedly on the bed that afternoon was like a dream.
When he woke up, he could no longer remember what Lu Yuanqing used to be like.
Anyway, Lu Yuanqing is doing very well now, extremely well, exceptionally well.
The more Lu Yuanbo did in Kyoto, the better he became, and the more he realized that if Lu Yuanqing hadn't appeared in their family, they would all probably have been stuck in the mountains forever.
In Lu Yuanbo's heart, Lu Yuanqing was the most important person. Not only did he think so himself, but his children also thought so under his guidance.
Lu Yuanbo had already thought it through. Since Lu Yuanqing was unwilling to get married and would be alone in his old age, he was determined to take care of him in his old age.
If he gets old and can no longer keep up, his children will all have to support Lu Yuanqing in his old age.
Lu Yuanbo was extremely worried about Lu Yuanqing's retirement.
Even after hearing that Qin Xiangchen (Lu Shufen's eldest grandson) had found a wife with a bad temper, he was unwilling to take care of her after his sister-in-law accidentally broke her leg and was hospitalized.
This taught Lu Yuanbo a great lesson.
Yes, his children must be filial because they have been influenced by him since childhood.
But if Tuantuan marries a person of bad character, and her two sons marry women of bad character, wouldn't that be a loss if it affected his retirement plans?
After Lu Yuanbo understood this, he called a small family meeting.
The attendees included him, Xie Qianyu, Tuantuan, and the twins.
"That concludes the meeting agenda. Did you all understand?"
Xie Qianyu: "..."
What a decision it is to make one's children do something that even one cannot do oneself.
Tuantuan had only one question: "Dad, if we find someone and you're satisfied with them, but Uncle San isn't, whose opinion should we follow?"
“Yes, Dad, whose opinion do you listen to?” Lu Chengwen asked jokingly.
Lu Chengwu rolled his eyes.
The siblings had finally come to accept the reality of their father's favoritism.
They had known for a long time that whenever it came to their third uncle, Lu Yuanqing, Lu Yuanbo would always side with Lu Yuanqing.
Therefore, the questions asked by Tuantuan and Lu Chengwen were all nonsense.
really……
"Nonsense, of course we should listen to your third uncle! Your third uncle has a good eye for people. If the person you bring back doesn't meet your third uncle's approval, I advise you to break up! It's not a good match!" Lu Yuanbo said with absolute confidence.
Xie Qianyu was utterly speechless.
Xie Qianyu really wanted to expose him.
Given the circumstances and her circumstances, Lu Yuanqing probably wouldn't have wanted Lu Yuanbo to throw himself at her so readily.
But Lu Yuanbo was determined to marry her, regardless of what others said.
Now things have gotten even worse; the important matter of their children's marriages has arrived.
However, Lu Yuanbo's wife was well aware of his worries.
In response, she stated that if the person in question was Lu Yuanqing, she would not participate in this discussion.
Lu Chengwu's expectant gaze was extinguished when he saw Xie Qianyu's resolute expression.
Never mind, it seems Xie Qianyu is in charge of his family.
But Xie Qianyu couldn't resist doting on Lu Yuanbo.
So don't say that Xie Qianyu makes all the decisions, big or small.
However, Xie Qianyu never objected to anything Lu Yuanbo decided.
"Dad, you're thinking too far ahead. We're still a long way from getting married!" So, don't worry about them bringing home someone with questionable character.
Lu Yuanbo snorted coldly: "You still have the nerve to say that? When I was your age, your older sister was already born. Look at you all, so old and still single. Can't you learn from Mumu? Look how well-behaved Mumu is. She got married and had children early, making your brother Xiaodong's life so much easier and completing his mission early."
"My family is a mess, none of them are any peace of mind. Forget about getting married, they don't even have a partner yet, and you still have the nerve to say that!"
Xie Qianyu: "..."
“Your dad has a point. The three of you should take this seriously. Don’t tell me you have to get married right away, but you should at least have someone in mind!”
Tuantuan laughed: "Mom, Uncle said that dating without the intention of marriage is just being a scoundrel!"
Lu Yuanbo: "Then why don't you date with marriage in mind?"
round and round:"……"
"Dad, if that's what you mean, then I'll have to quote Uncle San. He said that he didn't pressure you back then, so you shouldn't pressure us either!"
Lu Chengwen/Lu Chengwu: "..." Neither of them wanted to get involved in this topic.
Fortunately, there was an older sister who was there to support them.
Lu Yuanbo: "..."
"I don't care what you think, you all need to hurry up with your marriages, or the whole family will be married and you'll still be old bachelors!"
"Let's go, I'm too lazy to waste my breath on them!"
Lu Yuanbo angrily took Xie Qianyu's hand and left, intending to go to Lu Yuanqing's place for a free meal.
Xie Qianyu was speechless.
“Lu Yuanbo, I think you’re still young, don’t cause me any trouble.”
When not facing her children, Xie Qianyu became quite blunt in her speech.
Lu Yuanbo felt wronged. "How did I cause any trouble?"
"Don't you want them to get married soon?"
Xie Qianyu choked on her words.
"I think so, but you don't need to force them!"
On the one hand, they pressure each other to get married, and on the other hand, they require the other person to meet the approval of their family elders.
How can there be such a perfect person who can gain everyone's unanimous approval?
Xie Qianyu said that with Lu Yuanbo's high standards, it would be strange if they could marry off their daughter or find a wife!
"What do you mean by forcing them? They all pretend they don't know anything if you don't tell them!" Lu Yuanbo was very dissatisfied with this.
"Tell me, how come Mumu is so obedient? She never causes any trouble. She even dated while studying, and got married right after graduation. She's so easy to manage!"
Xie Qianyu rolled her eyes, speechless. "What do you mean?"
Lu Yuanbo: "..."
"It doesn't mean anything."
"Hmph!" Xie Qianyu said, "Let me tell you, if Tuantuan and the others aren't in a hurry, you can't rush them."
Lu Yuanbo pursed his lips, but dared not refuse.
"Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. Let's go to my brother's place for a free meal!" Lu Yuanbo readily admitted defeat.
Even if he wins an argument with his wife, he still loses. He's been spoiling Xie Qianyu for so many years.
"Let's go!" Xie Qianyu didn't argue with him.
The topic of marriage is always a source of arguments within families.
Their family has argued about this topic several times.
Xie Qianyu has already learned to be smart; as long as she doesn't mention it, it's fine.
……
Lu Yuanbo is concerned about his child's marriage.
This is understandable.
After all, in their understanding, people in their early twenties are of marriageable age.
But his three children, after graduating from university, all started working and remained single, without a single partner. How could he not worry?
Now, when people talk about Tuan Tuan and his friends, this is the topic they always bring up.
Even when having meals and chatting with Lu Yuanqing, this topic always comes up.
Lu Yuanqing was speechless.
"No, I never pressured you before. Why are you creating so many problems for Tuantuan and the others all the time?"
Lu Yuanqing was completely baffled.
Logically speaking, with such a good example as him, Lu Yuanbo's thinking shouldn't be so feudal!
Lu Yuanbo blinked. Who's so old-fashioned?
"I'm innocent! How have I been feudal?"
Lu Yuanqing pouted, "Then why do you worry about this all the time?"
"When Tuantuan and the others meet someone they want to marry, they will definitely get married. They don't want to get married now, so what's the use of urging them? Stop being so chauvinistic!"
Lu Yuanbo felt somewhat aggrieved.
"Brother, you've wronged me."
They're old-fashioned and chauvinistic.
"I just think that people with good character are hard to find. It must be difficult for Tuantuan and the others to find a suitable and satisfactory partner. They should take advantage of their young age and think it over carefully. If they get older, it will be harder to find someone they like!"
Lu Yuanqing: "..."
I had already heard from Xie Qianyu that Lu Yuanbo wanted Tuantuan and the others to find perfect partners, but hearing it with my own ears was still shocking.
What parent doesn't want the best for their children?
It's perfectly reasonable for them to want their life partner to be a perfect person.
But, does a perfect person really exist in this world?
That's obviously impossible!
If Lu Yuanbo really follows this standard.
Lu Yuanqing felt deeply worried!
I hope Tuantuan and his wife won't be able to get married!
"you……"
Lu Yuanqing wanted him to keep his expectations low.
However, it seems inappropriate for him to say that.
After all, deep down, he also wanted his child to find a good partner.
"I advise you to think more positively. No matter what kind of son-in-law and daughter-in-law you want, it doesn't matter. Everything depends on what kind of people Tuantuan and the others like."
Lu Yuanbo objected, "No way. Other things are negotiable, but finding a partner is a lifelong matter, and you can't just pick anyone."
Lu Yuanqing: "..."
"With your requirements, how many people can actually meet them?"
"Don't try to fool me. It's up to Tuantuan and the others to find what they want. As their father, you really can't stand to see them doing well, can you?"
Lu Yuanbo protested, "Why would I be jealous of them doing well? I just have higher expectations!"
Lu Yuanqing: "..." What a nice excuse, just a little higher requirements.
I hope your wish comes true!
Lu Yuanbo is unsure whether this is acceptable.
At this moment, Lu Yuanbo was unaware that the son-in-law and daughter-in-law he desired would certainly not come to pass.
