Chapter 203 At Lou’s House

When Lou Tan saw Lou Yuanshan's serious face and the solemn atmosphere at the scene, she smiled and said: "Yuanshan, don't be so serious, don't scare the guests."

She did have some appreciation for He Yuzhu. When they were in the capital more than 10 years ago, they met He Yuzhu. Once Xu Damao beat Lou Xiao'e. He Yuzhu sent Lou Xiao'e to the hospital and paid the medical expenses, which showed that he was kind-hearted and helpful. Afterwards, they

He even came to express his gratitude.

When they were choosing a husband for Lou Xiaoe, they also considered He Yuzhu, but they couldn't stand the fact that Xu Damao's mother worked as a servant in their house and repeatedly spoke ill of He Yuzhu. They were deceived and then married Lou Xiaoe to Xu Damao.

After getting married, Xu Damao showed his true nature. He often drank with friends and even beat up Lou Xiao'e. The current situation was difficult and they were unable to actively persuade their daughter to divorce, which made them feel very guilty.

Later, Lou Xiaoe divorced Xu Damao with the help of the street, and soon fell in love with He Yuzhu. After they found out, they were happy to see it happen and let it take its own course.

He Yuzhu rescued them through a leader, which made them very grateful.

Lou Xiao'e's parents can be said to be very wise people.

After liberation, he resolutely stayed and devoted himself to the construction of New China. He even donated the steel mill to the country. Lou Xiao'e and Sha Zhu planned their wedding with great joy and looked forward to the future.

Lou Xiao'e's parents were unusually calm. They knew that the water in the spring river was warm and that the storm was about to come. They resolutely moved their family south to Xiangjiang. Later facts proved that their decision was extremely correct.

On a stormy night when their family decided to move south to Xiangjiang, Lou Xiaoe approached He Yuzhu and asked him to follow them, but He Yuzhu couldn't let go and the people in the courtyard refused this request.

Lou Xiao'e plucked up the courage to confess to him and became his first woman. After a brief love affair, Lou Xiao'e secretly conceived their son He Xiao. More than 10 years later, He Yuzhu finally followed her to Xiangjiang, and the family of three could be happy.

Live together.

Lou Tan saw her daughter happily nestling next to He Yuzhu, and was sincerely happy for her. Aiwujiwu greeted her enthusiastically: "Xiao'e, quickly take Yuzhu and the others into the house to have a rest. They have traveled all the way from the capital to Xiangjiang.

You must be exhausted from all the travel, so I’ll have someone prepare the meal right away, and have a good rest after the meal.”

When Lou Xiao'e heard her mother's words, she took He Yuzhu's arm and walked into the house. Bai Zirui and Xu Jingli walked to Lou's father and Lou's mother, bowed and said, "Uncle, aunt is so disturbing."

Lou Yuanshan nodded and said: "Young man, you are welcome to come to my house as a guest."

Lou's mother said amiably: "You must be Zirui and Jingli! They are truly a match made in heaven. Come...come, when you come to your aunt's house, it's just like your own home. Don't be polite."

As she spoke, she enthusiastically held the hands of Bai Zirui and Xu Jingli and walked home, with Lou Yuanshan and her son following behind them.

Lou's mother took Bai Zirui and Xu Jingli into the house, and asked her daughter-in-law to arrange for people to cook and entertain the guests. She asked the servants to take their luggage and take them to sit down in the living room, and asked them about the changes that had taken place in the capital over the years.

.

Bai Zirui then talked about what he had learned after arriving in the capital, especially the changes in the capital after the reform and opening up, which made them sigh.

After some conversation, Bai Zirui already knew that Lou Xiao'e's brother and sister-in-law were named Lou Shitao and Li Xuemei respectively. They were well-matched and childhood sweethearts. They got married in the capital more than 10 years ago and have two sons and one daughter. They are both studying at Xiangjiang University.

.

It didn't take long for the servants to prepare meals and invite them to the dining room. Everyone got up and came to the dining room to sit down one by one. Lou Yuanshan, as the head of the Lou family, greeted them.

He picked up the wine glass and said: "Zi Rui, Yu Zhu, welcome you to Xiangjiang. Today I will prepare a little wine to catch the wind and wash away the dust for you. Let's all have a drink together."

Everyone raised their glasses and drank it all in one gulp. Bai Zirui poured a glass of wine, raised it in salute and said to Lou Yuanshan, "Uncle, thank you for your warm hospitality. I'm sorry for disturbing you today."

Lou Shitao served his father a glass of wine. Lou Yuanshan picked up the wine glass and clinked it with Bai Zirui. Lou Xiaoe saw that he had drank two glasses of wine in a row and said worriedly: "Dad, if you are not in good health, drink less."

Lou Yuanshan waved his hand and said: "It doesn't matter, it's rare for an old friend from the capital to come today, so we must get drunk before resting."

Lou Tan said: "Yuanshan, ask Shi Tao to drink a few more drinks for you and entertain Yuzhu, Zirui and the others well."

Lou Yuanshan sighed and said: "This amount of wine was nothing when I was young. Now that I am old, I will not mention my bravery. Shitao, please entertain Zirui and the others well for me."

Lou Shitao filled a glass of wine for everyone, toasted Bai Zirui and the others, and treated everyone to eat. Xu Jingli poured a glass of wine and said to Lou Tan: "Aunt Lou, I want to toast you, thank you for your warm hospitality. I'll do it.

It’s up to you!”

Mr. Lou Tan drank a glass of wine with her and said with a smile: "You really have the same demeanor as I did when I was young. You will make people like you at first sight."

Xu Jingli said modestly: "Aunt Lou, you are so grateful."

Bai Zirui said with a smile: "Sister Jingli, don't call me Aunt Lou. Her surname is not Lou."

Xu Jingli asked doubtfully: "Aunt Lou, her surname is not Lou, what is her surname?"

Bai Zirui said: "Sister Jingli, think about it, my sister-in-law's surname is Lou, can her mother's surname be Lou?"

Xu Jingli said: "Oh! Why didn't I think of it? Auntie, I'm sorry!"

Lou Tan said with a smile: "Jingli, you are right to call her that. In ancient times, we women were accustomed to take the husband's family name when we married. I have been married to the Lou family for more than 30 years."

Xu Jingli said: "Auntie, I think your bookishness must come from a lady. May I ask which scholarly family your ancestors came from?"

Lou Tan said with a smile: "Yuzhu, Zirui, I heard from Xiao'e that your father is a chef with superb cooking skills. Yuzhu worked as a chef in a steel rolling mill. If you cook a dish like this,

When the food is served, you can guess what my last name is."

He Yuzhu said respectfully: "You say."

Mr. Lou Tan said: "Qie Kun!"

Everyone in the Lou family laughed and said nothing. Xu Jingli asked curiously: "Zirui, why don't I know this dish that my aunt mentioned? What does it mean?"

After Bai Zirui heard the name of this dish, he stood up and said seriously: "Nine steams and nine explosions! Your surname is Tan."
