Chapter 402 Lu Mingdong's Side Story 3
How could I not like it?
Children may not understand things, but they are the most sensitive to their feelings.
He can sense who likes him and who doesn't.
However, Xie Qianyu was not satisfied with the wife that Lu Chengwu married, which made her dislike Lu Chengwu's family.
Having been pampered by Lu Yuanbo her whole life, she naturally expressed whatever she thought without holding back.
What displeased her was Lu Chengwu and his wife. Xie Qianyu didn't say she was angry with them, but she didn't show the same obvious fondness for their other grandchildren.
The brothers Lu Yuanqing and Lu Yuanbo remained completely silent on the matter.
At her age, should Xie Qianyu be expected to accommodate people she doesn't like?
Lu Yuanbo was the first to disagree.
He likes glutinous rice balls, but he still needs Xie Qianyu's permission before he can take care of his grandson.
Even if he likes the child, he won't take care of her if Xie Qianyu doesn't agree.
Lu Mingdong spends little time at home and is unaware of the small things happening at home.
Completely unaware of what was happening, just as Xiao Tangyuan was about to pounce on Lu Yuanqing, he swiftly intercepted her halfway.
"This is Xiao Wu's son, Little Tangyuan. He looks just like his fourth uncle!"
Xie Qianyu smiled and said, "He does look a bit like Grandpa."
If it weren't for this, she would never have let Lu Yuanbo take care of the child every day.
Lu Yuanqing remained silent and quietly poured a cup of tea for the silent Lu Yuanbo.
Lu Yuanbo handed it to Xie Qianyu, saying, "Third Brother's tea is the best. You should try it."
Xie Qianyu also felt thirsty, and without being polite, she picked up the glass and drank it.
"Xiao Dong likes children?" Xie Qianyu asked with a smile as she saw him holding and amusing the little glutinous rice ball. "He probably doesn't have the chance to hold such a small child!"
Lu Mingdong nodded. In his life, he had probably only suffered from the hardships of studying and scientific research. God hadn't wanted him to suffer any other hardships.
She has three children, who are being raised with the help of Cheng He, Lu Yuanqing, and Cheng Xia.
The three siblings, Mumu and her brother, were very sensible and got married and had children at a young age.
His youngest granddaughter is now in the fourth grade of elementary school.
They're no longer like two or three-year-olds who need to be held and amused!
"Mumu and the others are still the most obedient," Xie Qianyu said with a sigh.
Lu Yuanqing chuckled and shook his head. "Listen to me. Marriage is never so easy to achieve. It's a couple who make their life together."
Because Lu Mingdong wasn't around, Mu Mu and the others, despite having the love of everyone, lacked a father's guidance. They matured early, and naturally got married and had children early as well.
"Life is better now, but I don't have the same drive I had when I was young."
"Absolutely! I was thinking of taking Qianyu out to play. The country is so big, and we haven't even seen it all yet! But after going there, it took her many days to recover."
Lu Mingdong listened quietly, but his attention was mostly on the little dumpling in his arms.
The little guy may have rarely seen Lu Mingdong, but he should still have some impression of him.
So, after being intercepted and held in someone's arms, he tilted his head back and stared at Lu Mingdong for a while. He must have recognized him, because he didn't cry or make a fuss. Instead, he sat in Lu Mingdong's arms with great interest.
The little guy is doing very well; he's chubby and healthy.
He touched and poked here and there, using just the right amount of force, playing with it like a toy, which was quite amusing.
“I think Xiao Tangyuan’s features look a lot like Fourth Uncle’s, but they also look a lot like me!” Lu Mingdong gently poked Xiao Tangyuan’s chubby cheeks.
Lu Yuanbo rolled his eyes. "Nonsense, I'm still your fourth uncle! We all look alike, it's normal for you to look like Little Tangyuan!"
Lu Yuanqing smiled slightly, indicating his agreement.
They both have the surname Lu and are related within three generations, so it's perfectly reasonable for them to look alike.
Lu Mingdong shook his head. "No! What I said sounds like it, not what you think, Fourth Uncle."
“Look at Xiao Tangyuan’s face. I can guarantee that when we were little, only I was as chubby as him.”
"Plump and chubby?" Little Tangyuan repeated in her childish voice.
"Pfft!" Lu Yuanqing laughed.
“Oh, you mean this? It’s true!” Lu Yuanbo turned to Xie Qianyu and said, “When we were little, my family was poor. We didn’t have enough to eat and almost starved to death. We were all emaciated and looked like African refugees.”
"But Xiao Dong is different!"
Xie Qianyu had never seen Lu Mingdong when he was a child. By the time she learned about Lu Mingdong, the Lu family was already doing well.
Lu Yuanbo chuckled and said, "We all have yellowish hair and sallow faces, and we're all very thin. Xiao Dong is also thin, with only a layer of skin left on the back of his hands, but this kid still has some flesh on his face, fair skin, and black, soft hair. Third Brother used to love touching his hair and pinching his smiling face the most."
As Lu Yuanbo explained, he pointed to Lu Mingdong's gesture of pinching Xiao Tangyuan's chubby little face, "Just like him now!"
Xie Qianyu smiled and said, "Little Tangyuan's hair is growing so well. It seems she really looks just like Xiao Dong when he was little!"
Lu Mingdong laughed and said, "I think so too!"
"What do you think?" Cheng Xia walked over with a smile.
Xie Qianyu quickly explained, "I was talking about Little Tangyuan! Our family was poor before, but Xiaodong always had chubby cheeks, almost like a little tangyuan, and his hair too..."
Cheng Xia suddenly realized, walked over and sat down next to Lu Mingdong, reached out and teased the little dumpling.
"I can vouch for that. When Xiao Dong was around ten years old, his baby fat hadn't faded yet. I remember my third uncle telling me that when they first went to the Canton Fair, Uncle Si thought he was cute and gave him a tip!"
"Really?" Xie Qianyu exclaimed in shock. "So young, and she can already make money just from her looks?"
"Pfft!"
When Lu Yuanqing saw Lu Mingdong's face darken because of Xie Qianyu's words, he burst out laughing.
"Haha, that's right, I was there too. Brother Si even pinched his cheek, but Xiao Dong endured it for the sake of money. He usually doesn't allow anyone to pinch his cheek except for Third Brother," Lu Yuanbo said with a laugh.
“Xiao west likes to tease him, pinch his face, and they always end up fighting,” Lu Yuanqing added.
Without mentioning Xie Qianyu, Cheng Xia laughed heartily, a smile playing on her lips as she looked at Lu Mingdong.
She was also the one who favored him.
Before Lu Mingdong confessed his feelings to her, but before they officially started dating, she liked to pinch his chubby cheeks.
However, she was too cautious at the time, so she did it very rarely.
But after they got married, she was finally able to act without restraint and discovered that Lu Mingdong's baby fat had completely disappeared.
She held Lu Mingdong's face in her hands and regretted it for a long time.
You shouldn't overthink it. Get married sooner and gain the right to have her as your wife.
