PFC Chapter 276 Habits
Chapter 276 Habits
Where there are children, there will be arguments.
This is a conclusion Lu Yuanqing drew from his own experience with his "mischievous child".
He was truly amazed that they could argue over such a trivial matter.
However, his consistent attitude has been to stay out of it and let them handle it themselves.
He was no longer the novice parent he once was. Over the years, he had witnessed how many rural families would handle such situations.
He never considered learning from him.
He still adheres to his educational philosophy.
This idea seems to make a lot of sense.
Don't favor one side; let the kids solve it themselves.
They argued and fought, but in the end, they found that it didn't really affect their relationship.
This only strengthened Lu Yuanqing's belief in his solution.
Cheng Jun has been home for several months and has obviously gotten used to the bickering between Lu Mingbei and Lu Mingzhong.
I've seen them argue while eating countless times.
So the Lu family calmly ate their breakfast, treating the argument between the two as a performance.
On the contrary, Lu Shufen was very uncomfortable with this situation.
Qin Yinghua gave birth to four grandchildren for her.
With so many children, the family often argues over trivial matters, and she tries to mediate.
"Xiao Bei, you're the older sister, don't argue with your younger brother, hurry up and eat." Lu Shufen habitually said what her family often said.
Lu Mingbei objected, arguing that there was no reason for her to give in just because she was the older sister.
"I don't want it!"
To this, Lu Mingzhong said dismissively, "Who asked her to give in? It's not like I can't beat her."
Lu Mingbei said, "Tch, wasn't it someone who made me cry the day before yesterday and then went to complain to Third Uncle?"
"It wasn't me. Last time, you were the one who went and complained to me in tears." Lu Mingzhong also started bringing up old grievances.
Lu Mingbei glared at him: "It was you the time before last!"
"It was you the time before last!"
Lu Shufen was completely ignored.
"Yuan Qing, this..."
Lu Yuanqing put down his chopsticks, smiled reassuringly at her, and said, "Aunt, don't worry about them."
After calming Lu Shufen down, Lu Yuanqing turned to the two who were still arguing back and forth and said, "Everyone needs to finish eating and get back to work. Are you still arguing here? Are you even going to eat or not?"
"You two will wash the dishes later."
The two clever men, oblivious to the growing anger on Lu Yuanqing's face, grinned and said, "Don't worry! It's just washing dishes." Of course they were willing to do it; they'd get paid for it. Only a fool wouldn't want to do it!
Feeling that they had been assigned tasks, the two stopped arguing and quickly began eating their meals.
The whole argument was resolved in a few words by Lu Yuanqing in a rather muddled way.
Lu Shufen exclaimed that it was an eye-opener.
It's just that Lu Yuanqing didn't know what she was thinking at that moment, otherwise he would have at least said something like, "It's your own children arguing, don't get involved, just change the subject."
Well, just based on my experience.
……
The power of numbers is the best experience in this era.
The room was built at a speed visible to the naked eye, and Chengjun wanted to take advantage of the perfect time to invite everyone to a home-cooked meal. It would also be a good opportunity to have a meal with relatives and friends so that they could formally get to know each other.
After all, he had already decided to settle down in Shihua Village. This would be his and Cheng Xiaobao's home from now on. Getting along well with the villagers would make their future life more convenient.
Now, apart from Lu Guobin's family and other families with the surname Lu in the village, they are all giving him a friendly welcome because of his grandfather, and perhaps also because of his father who was trafficked when he was young.
The other families who came to help were mostly doing so because of Lu Yuanqing.
When Cheng Jun learned that Lu Yuanqing had single-handedly built the village's pig farm and bamboo ware factory, he deeply understood how capable his cousin was and how influential he was in the village.
Cheng Jun was very happy to have such relatives.
Lu Yuanqing strongly agreed with his idea of taking the opportunity of visiting the villagers' homes to get to know them.
"That's a great idea. This is a good opportunity for me to get to know everyone."
One tree cannot make a forest. If Chengjun wants to stay in Shihua Village, he will inevitably have to deal with the villagers.
“That’s what I thought too. Now that I’ve settled down in Shihua Village, I can say that I’ve truly returned to my hometown,” Cheng Jun said with emotion.
It's just a pity that his father, even on his deathbed, was still thinking about this place, but he didn't have the fortune to see the state of his hometown.
Lu Yuanqing smiled and comforted him, "You are originally from our Shihua Village. If you go back several generations of my family, we will know that we are all from Shihua Village."
Although there are many surnames in Shihua Village, there are no major surnames, and there are almost many different surnames.
But the Lu family's ancestors had indeed settled here a long time ago.
In other words, the existence of family trees and the like is now prohibited; otherwise, it would be possible to investigate them thoroughly.
Although Lu Yuanqing didn't care about these things, he was still curious!
……
The family banquet was a very lively affair.
Cheng Jun still had money on him because of the reward for catching human traffickers.
In addition, he himself wanted to make this family dinner a good one, so he was naturally more willing to spend money.
They asked Zhang Panlan and an old lady from the Lu family in the village to help prepare food.
When each dish was served, everyone's attention was immediately drawn to it.
"Wow, there's beef too! That's good stuff, you can't usually get your hands on it."
"Cheng Jun is really generous!"
"As expected of the Lu family, they are quite good at dealing with people."
"..."
Because of the meal, everyone showered each other with compliments as if it were free.
Lu Yuanqing helped receive guests and introduced people to Cheng Jun. He was extremely busy all day.
The day passed by in a lively and exciting way, both tiring and fulfilling.
Cheng Jun and Cheng Xiaobao have now completely moved into their own home.
Aside from Cheng Xiaobao being a little unaccustomed to it, Lu Mingzhong was the one who was the least accustomed to it.
The two were close in age, and after Cheng Xiaobao came to the Lu family, he was always the closest to him. The two played together, ran around the village together, and even fought with Lu Mingbei together.
Even when they sleep, they can't bear to be apart.
Now we have to separate.
These two were arguably the least comfortable with it.
Besides, Lu Yuanqing was also a little unaccustomed to it.
He took such a tiny baby home, and because he was so small, Cheng Xiaobao relied on him a lot at first.
There is no doubt about Lu Yuanqing's dedication to him.
Even if you're not used to it, you have to get used to it.
Fortunately, before we could experience much of the discomfort, Shihua Village received some good news.
This year, the authorities arranged for an open-air movie to be shown in Shihua Village.
The whole village got excited about this.
