After arriving at the brigade, Lu Chen parked the tractor in front of the brigade office. The brigade leader remembered that his home was in the same direction as Dou Zhengrong's home, so he casually suggested that he bring this person to Dou Zhengrong's home.
Lu Chen did not refuse, and soon the two of them left together.
Lu Chen was not the talkative type, so on the way to Dou Zhengrong's house with that person, he did not ask him any extra questions, and A Wu did not say anything either.
But on the way, Awu looked at Lu Chen a few more times, his eyes thoughtful, and he seemed to be very interested in Lu Chen.
Lu Chen naturally noticed A Wu's gaze, but because the other party did not say anything and he was in a hurry to go home, he did not ask any more questions.
When he arrived at Dou Zhengrong's house, Lu Chen was about to go home directly, but was stopped by A Wu who had been silent all the way.
"This comrade."
Lu Chen paused, turned around and looked at him silently, waiting for A Wu to speak.
Ah Wu didn't delay, smiled, and then said to Lu Chen: "You are a blessed person, and forget the past and cherish the present."
Lu Chen was stunned when he heard this, and then looked at A Wu with some confusion.
"Anything else?"
A Wu shook his head, and then Lu Chen nodded and left.
But after walking a distance from Dou Zhengrong's house, his pace gradually slowed down, then he frowned and began to think about what Ah Wu had just said to him.
Is he a blessed man
When Lu Chen thought of this, the corners of his mouth twitched and he smiled unconsciously, a mocking smile.
Thinking back on his experiences and encounters over the years, he really didn't know how Ah Wu could say such a thing.
As for what he said later, cherish the present, he knew it even if Awu didn't say it.
But he was more curious about why Awu said such words to him when they only met for the first time today.
Moreover, if Lu Chen guessed correctly, this person's arrival should be related to the letter that Dou Zhengrong asked him to send a few days ago.
Perhaps, it is also related to Lin Xiuzhi.
Lu Chen raised his eyebrows and began to look forward to the result of what Dou Zhengrong had said before.
He said—he would take care of it.
After delaying for a while at the door of Dou Zhengrong's house, Lu Chen quickened his pace and returned home quickly.
Nothing happened at home, but as soon as he entered the door, he saw Meng Yinyin sitting in the main room talking to Dong Qingcheng, and she looked very excited.
Lu Chen paused, frowned unconsciously, then quickened his pace towards the main room, and for the first time ever, took the initiative to ask.
"What are you talking about?"
Meng Yinyin was telling Dong Qingcheng about the "glorious deeds" of Lu Dashan and Jiang Guihua. She was quite excited until Lu Chen spoke and she realized that he was back. She was immediately startled.
"You're back?"
From the tone of her voice, one could tell that she didn't pay any attention to him at all.
Lu Chen suppressed the slight grievance and disappointment in his heart, and at the same time glanced at Dong Qingcheng inconspicuously. Dong Qingcheng seemed to see hostility in that glance.
He couldn't help laughing.
This cousin of mine is too jealous. I swear to God, what he just talked about with Meng Yinyin was all about him, and he would not have any other feelings for his brother's wife.
He could only say that Lu Chen was overthinking.
However, this also seems to show from the side how much Lu Chen cares about Meng Yinyin. As an elder, Dong Qingcheng is naturally relieved.
In order to prevent Lu Chen from getting jealous again, Dong Qingcheng stood up and said to Meng Yinyin and Lu Chen: "You must be tired after coming back from outside, take a rest first, I have to go back to town too."
Because there were no extra rooms at home, although Lu Chen could live in the same room with Dong Qingcheng, Dong Qingcheng took the initiative to say that it was not necessary. He could stay at a friend's house in town. This little distance was nothing to him.
Seeing that he had stood up and was about to leave, Lu Chen and Meng Yinyin did not stop him. They watched Dong Qingcheng say goodbye to the Dong family, and Meng Yinyin also answered the question that Lu Chen had just asked.
"I'm telling you..."
Afterwards, Meng Yinyin told Dong Qingcheng about Lu Jinbao being locked up, and then Lu Dashan and Jiang Guihua came to ask Dong Qingcheng for help from the Dong family.
In fact, Lu Chen was not interested in the affairs of Lu Dashan's family, but he did not say anything, nor did he interrupt her. Instead, he listened to Meng Yinyin's voice patiently.
Finally, after Meng Yinyin finished her gossip and Lu Chen poured her a glass of water, she belatedly remembered the purpose of his going out today.
"By the way, did you get the tractor back?"
To be honest, Meng Yinyin had never seen a tractor, let alone ridden one, so she was really curious about what a tractor looked like.
Lu Chen nodded and said, "The tractor should be sent to work tomorrow morning. You can come and visit then."
When saying this, Lu Chen's tone seemed to be no different from usual, but his eyes were staring straight at Meng Yinyin. If you look closely, you can see the expectation in his eyes.
He really wanted Meng Yinyin to watch him operate the tractor, because when he was training in the factory, he looked really handsome driving that big thing.
At this moment, he felt like a child who had found a favorite treasure and wanted to show it to the person he cared about most.
Meng Yinyin was indeed interested in tractors, and tomorrow was Lu Chen's first day driving a tractor to work. She thought about it and immediately agreed.
Lu Chen was delighted, but he regretted that time could not fast forward to tomorrow.
Different from his joyful and excited mood was Lin Xiuzhi from the Dou family.
Before Ah Wu came in, Lin Xiuzhi was lying in bed, continuing to eat and wait for death while trying to get along well with Lu Chen. She heard that Lu Chen was going to drive a tractor tomorrow, and decided to try her luck outside tomorrow. Otherwise, she would not be able to see Lu Chen if she continued to wait here, and she had to take the initiative.
But before she could wait for tomorrow to come, she waited for a stranger at home.
The moment she heard a strange man's voice outside, Lin Xiuzhi originally didn't intend to care. She just thought that the man was someone else in the team, who was just passing by or just wanted to say a few words to Dou Zhengrong. But what she didn't expect was that next she would hear Dou Zhengrong say, "Give me your luggage, I've cleaned up the room for you" and so on.
What's the meaning
Lin Xiuzhi was suddenly shocked.
Could it be that this person wants to stay here? Who is he
Lin Xiuzhi felt curious, but also unhappy at the same time.
Although her relationship with Dou Zhengrong is very bad now, she still lives in this house after all. If Dou Zhengrong wants to bring someone to live in his house, shouldn't he inform her in advance
He really doesn't take her seriously!
Lin Xiuzhi couldn't help but roll her eyes, then stood up and walked out angrily. She must have a good talk with Dou Zhengrong about this.
She is a woman at home, but he brings a man home. How can he let her live here
Lin Xiuzhi quickly came to the yard and saw a man next to Dou Zhengrong at a glance.
The man was also tall, and looked about the same height as Dou Zhengrong, but his skin was much darker than his, and his facial features appeared to be more profound than those of ordinary people, as if he had ethnic minority or foreign blood.
But what surprised Lin Xiuzhi even more was that the man fixed his eyes on her the moment she appeared, and the scrutiny and inquiry in his eyes made Lin Xiuzhi inexplicably nervous.
Why is this person looking at me like this? Is he coveting me
This situation is indeed somewhat similar to the smelly man mentioned on the Internet!
When she thought of this, Lin Xiuzhi's originally nervous mood was immediately overwhelmed by disgust, and she couldn't help but glare at Awu, and even Dou Zhengrong next to him, she didn't let him go, and glanced at him coldly.
Dou Zhengrong is so heartless that he remains indifferent when his woman is looked at like this by another man. He is really heartless.
It turns out that in this world, only men like Lu Chen are real men, and they are so infatuated!
Thinking of this, her tone became even colder and more dissatisfied.
"Dou Zhengrong, didn't you know to discuss with me before bringing someone home? Do you really take me seriously?"
Dou Zhengrong quietly watched Lin Xiuzhi lose her temper, without any emotion up or down, as calmly as if he was looking at a stranger, and a stranger whom he hated very much.
After Lin Xiuzhi finished her accusation, Dou Zhengrong spoke calmly.
"This house is mine, and I let him live in another room instead of with you. I don't think I need to listen to you."
The implication was that it was his own house and he had the final say over it, and it didn't prevent Lin Xiuzhi from living there, so what right did she have to control him
Lin Xiuzhi was furious when she heard this.
"you-!"
"Okay, old man, stop bothering with lesbians."
At this moment, Awu on the side spoke.
He smiled at Lin Xiuzhi in anger, as if to apologize.
"I'm sorry, Comrade Lin. My sudden visit may make you unhappy, but don't worry, I won't affect you during my stay here."
These words sounded somewhat human, and Lin Xiuzhi knew that she had no way of changing Dou Zhengrong's mind, so she had to give up in the end.
But she was also a little curious about what the man in front of her was doing here.
In response, Ah Wu explained: "I am Lao Dou's comrade-in-arms, but I retired earlier than him. I knew that his leg was injured and I was worried about him, so I thought of coming to see him."
"I won't stay here for long. I'll be back in a few days. Comrade Lin, don't worry."
When Lin Xiuzhi heard that Awu was here to see Dou Zhengrong, she immediately lost interest in his purpose.
She chuckled and responded, "It'd better be."
After saying this, he turned around and went into the house as if it had nothing to do with him.
After she entered the house, Dou Zhengrong took Awu to the room he had prepared in advance, closed the door, and then frowned and asked Awu.
"Well, did you see anything?"
Hearing this, Ah Wu's eyes unconsciously became solemn. Then, under Dou Zhengrong's urgent gaze, he nodded and said.
"I have discovered something. Comrade Lin in front of me is indeed not the same person as Xiao Lin, but I am not sure about the specific situation yet. I need to observe it for a while longer."
Finally getting a positive answer, the huge rock that had been hanging in Dou Zhengrong's heart finally fell down, but at the same time, his heart couldn't help but become more bitter and worried.
The Lin Xiuzhi in front of him is not his beloved wife, so where is the real Xiuzhi? Where did she go
