◎My wife is very clingy and can’t leave me for a moment◎

 

After hearing what He Chengjun said, Lu Yao couldn’t accept it for a moment. She was so ashamed and angry, and ran away crying.

 

When Lu Ming saw this, he said hello to Lu Jinzhou and hurriedly chased her out.

 

He Chengjun had just said a lot of Wei Guangzheng’s words, so naturally he was too embarrassed to stay for dinner any longer, so he left.

(“A lot of Wei Guangzheng’s words” (何成军说了很多韦光正的话) is a humorous way of saying that someone is talking nonsense or speaking empty words. In this idiom, “Wei Guangzheng” (韦光正) represents a hypothetical person who speaks empty or pretentious words, similar to the concept of “speaking like the eighth aunt’s husband” (说话像八姨夫) that we mentioned earlier.)

 

Yang Hongwei’s family of four ate a mouthful of fresh melon for free, and felt a little strange.

 

But soon, they no longer had the mind to think about those messy things, because the food Dong Jiaojiao cooked was so delicious!

 

“Xiao Dong, your craftsmanship is really amazing! Director Lu, you are so lucky!” Yang Hongwei sighed sincerely.

 

Lu Jinzhou agreed with his face and nodded seriously: “You are right, I am indeed very happy to be able to marry Jiaojiao!”

 

Yang Hongwei: …Why does it feel like he’s a bit full from the dog food?

 

Wang Cuihua secretly glared at her man. Although her craftsmanship is not as good as Dong Jiaojiao’s, she didn’t let the three of them starve to death.

Forget it, don’t think about it anymore, eat quickly, otherwise the food will be robbed!

 

Da Mao and Er Mao, on the other hand, have no time to talk. They have to eat quickly or it will be gone.

 

Alas, it’s another day when I want to be a son to Aunt Dong.

 

After finishing the meal, Wang Cuihua felt embarrassed because Dong Jiaojiao bought the dishes and cooked the rice for today’s meal.

 

She agreed to treat her, but instead she gave her a slap in the face.

So Wang Cuihua took out a jar of sauerkraut she had brewed and gave it to Dong Jiaojiao along with the jar.

 

“Jiaojiao, don’t be dissatisfied that my pickled vegetables are not as delicious as yours. This goes well with rice porridge and steamed buns.”

 

“Sister-in-law, don’t say that, I like to eat your pickled sauerkraut. It’s very delicious.”

 

“If you like it, your sister-in-law may not have anything else, but I have enough sauerkraut. Come and get it after you finish.”

 

“Okay, thank you, sister-in-law. I won’t be polite.”

Finally, Lu Jinzhou held a jar of sauerkraut and took Dong Jiaojiao with him to return to the dormitory apartment.

 

The married Lu Jinzhou is indeed more down-to-earth. With his mysophobia before, he would never walk on the road with such a mess.

 

Back at the apartment, the two wanted to take a nap, but an uninvited guest came to the door, Mr. Chen from the research institute.

 

Mr. Chen, whose full name is Chen Xuemin, is the deputy director of the institute, focusing on research on power and energy.

 

Previously, Lu Jinzhou was also the deputy director. Huang Hongsheng, the former director of the institute, retired, and the organization intended to choose one of them to be the director.

Everyone has seen the final result.

 

Chen Xuemin is fifty-three years old and has high prestige in the academic world.

 

At the beginning, he was still dissatisfied with Lu Jinzhou.

 

Later, the problem that had troubled him for more than ten years was solved by Lu Jinzhou in three months, and he was completely convinced.

 

After that, whenever Chen Xuemin came up with some weird new invention, he would come and talk to Lu Jinzhou.

The two often discuss academic problems together and provide guidance and help to each other.

 

However, most of the time, it was Lu Jinzhou who guided Chen Xuemin.

 

Chen Xuemin didn’t feel embarrassed at all. Instead, he praised Lu Jinzhou’s abilities and talents in front of others.

 

In the past, he was the one who was most dissatisfied with Lu Jinzhou. Now, he is the one who admires Lu Jinzhou the most.

 

If anyone dares to say that Lu Jinzhou is not good at all, Chen Xuemin will definitely rush up and scold that person bloody, just like Lu Jinzhou’s little fanboy, no, old fanboy.

 

Now, Chen Xuemin’s project has encountered some problems and has been stuck for more than half a month.

 

If it is not solved, the progress may be slowed down, so Chen Xuemin wanted to come to Lu Jinzhou for help.

 

As a result, Li Xiang returned to the institute yesterday and directly asked for ten days of wedding leave for Lu Jinzhou.

 

If it weren’t for the fact that something happened at the police station yesterday and he couldn’t leave, Chen Xuemin almost went directly to Lingnan City to arrest people.

 

Today he heard that Lu Jinzhou was back, so he looked for him non-stop.

 

As soon as he saw Lu Jinzhou after entering the door, he was the first to shout: “Xiao Lu, what’s the matter with you? You haven’t been to the office for so many days. This is not like your usual self. You are degenerating. I want to criticize you!”

 

Lu Jinzhou! Smiling, he put his arms around Dong Jiaojiao’s shoulders and introduced: “Old Chen, this is my wife Dong Jiaojiao. Jiaojiao, this is the ‘needle that stabilizes the sea’ of our institute. You can just call him Mr. Chen.”

 

“Old Chen, Hello, please take a seat.” Dong Jiaojiao smiled obediently.

 

When Chen Xuemin first came in, he didn’t even notice Dong Jiaojiao. At this time, he touched his nose with some embarrassment and said, “Hello, hello.”

 

Dong Jiaojiao went into the kitchen to pour tea for Chen Xuemin.

 

As soon as she left, Chen Xuemin winked at Lu Jinzhou and said, “Let’s go to the study and have a good chat.”

 

Most of the work of the institute needs to be kept secret, and even their wives and children cannot be informed.

 

Normally, Lu Jinzhou would have gone with Chen Xuemin, but this time is different from the past.

 

Lu Jinzhou said reluctantly: “Old Chen, I’m on wedding leave, and my projects are almost completed.”

 

“I know there is no problem with your project, but there is a small problem on my side.

 

“Why do you come to me if you have a small problem? Why don’t you go to Lao Zhang to discuss it?”

 

“You think I didn’t go there? If it can be solved, I will solve it. Do you need to look for you? Lao Zhang is not as good as me! No, Lu Jinzhou, what’s wrong with you? You weren’t like this before, why are you resisting me when I ask you to do something?”

 

He replied: “Old Chen, it was before, now is now. Now that I have a wife, I have to spend more time with my wife. You don’t know, my wife is very clingy. She can’t live without me.”

 

Upon hearing this, Chen Xuemin frowned more and more, looking distressed.

 

“Xiao Lu, you are too impulsive to get married. You are only 28 years old. Why did you get married so early? Look, your wife is super controlling you. What will you do in the future?”

 

Chen Xuemin delayed it until he was 35 in order to engage in scientific research. They just got married on a blind date. He believed that Lu Jinzhou, who was better than him, should get married at the age of 40.

 

Lu Jinzhou felt happy in his heart, but he pretended to be helpless and said: “There is no way, the knot is all tied, I can only listen to my wife.”

 

Chen Xuemin looked like he hated iron and said through gritted teeth: “If i had known better, I would have introduced my eldest niece to you. She is about the same age as you and will definitely support your work. Your wife looks young and her mind must be immature. No wonder she is so clingy. Xiao Lu, you are so confused! We should focus all our energy on work. If you marry a wife like this, it will delay your work!”

 

Lu Jinzhou pursed his lips into a straight line. Your eldest niece weighs at least two hundred pounds and she doesn’t care about hygiene. Not as good as his delicate wife.

 

“Okay, Lao Chen, if you talk about my wife like that again, I will be angry! This is approved by the organization. I have my own sense of discretion and won’t delay my work!”

 

“Okay, you can go to the study with me now. Help me do the math and see what went wrong.”

 

At this time, Dong Jiaojiao came out with tea.

 

Lu Jinzhou immediately asked for instructions: “Wife, Lao Chen asked me to help with some work matters, can I?”

 

Chen Xuemin immediately helped: “Xiao Dong, don’t worry, with Xiao Lu’s ability, it won’t waste much time.”

 

Dong Jiaojiao, not knowing why, said confusedly: “….Then go and get busy.”

 

“Okay, wife.”

 

“Xiao Dong, you are a good comrade, and you must support Xiao Lu’s work in the future.”

 

The two of them worked together. After getting up and going to the study, Lu Jinzhou whispered to Chen Xuemin: “You see, although my wife is very clingy to me, she will still support my work.”

 

Chen Xuemin looked back at Dong Jiaojiao and found that she had been looking at Lu Jinzhou. He thought to himself, she is indeed very clingy, so he should come as little as possible from now on.

 

However, he still has to ask the questions that need to be asked. At worst, he will gather them together and then ask them together.

 

Lu Jinzhou and the others were busy in the study, while Dong Jiaojiao was outside packing up the things that had been moved from the family compound.

 

Chairs, benches and beds are all provided by the army and are public property and cannot be taken away.

 

Therefore, Dong Jiaojiao’s luggage didn’t actually have much, it was just some clothes, quilts, pots and pans.

 

The clothes and quilts were brought from her hometown, and the pots and pans were newly bought at the canteen.

 

Dong Jiaojiao put the pots and pans into the utility room here, packed up the clothes and quilts, and put them aside, planning to take them into the city.

 

After finishing his work, seeing that Lu Jinzhou and the others had not come out yet, Dong Jiaojiao cooked a pot of mung bean porridge with Spiritual spring water, and then sat in the dining room to study high school knowledge on her own.

 

On the other side, Lu Ming was trying to persuade his sister Lu Yao, but she seemed determined to be with He Chengjun no matter what.

 

Lu Yao cried so hard: “Ge, He Dage saved my life. From that day on, I made up my mind to marry him.”

 

Anyway, Lu Yao had already said it before, and Lu Yao was not afraid of embarrassment, so she simply staged a showdown with Lu Ming.

 

Lu Ming frowned, suddenly feeling that his sister had become so strange.

 

Isn’t this equivalent to a disguised admission that it was his sister who was responsible for He Chengjun’s divorce?

 

It seemed that Dong Jiaojiao was right. It was indeed Lu Yao who deliberately seduced He Chengjun, which made her angry, so she took the initiative to apply for divorce.

 

What happened in the past is a foregone conclusion, so it’s okay not to talk about it.

 

The important thing now is that Dong Jiaojiao has become their aunt.

 

Moreover, He Chengjun obviously didn’t like Lu Yao, otherwise, he wouldn’t have said those words.

 

After all, Lu Yao was the culprit who caused his divorce. Now that he has seen Lu Yao’s true face, can he still accept her?

 

It seemed that He Chengjun’s “heartfelt words” had successfully deceived Lu Ming.

 

He thought that He Chengjun was also a victim and that everything was Lu Yao’s fault. He even felt a little guilty about He Chengjun. After all, Lu Yao was his biological sister.

 

The reason why Lu Ming believed in He Chengjun so easily was not only because Lu Yao broke the pot and had a direct showdown, but also because Lu Ming had experienced something similar.

 

Lu Ming had previously rescued a girl during a mission, and the girl secretly loved him, and later gave him medicine for pigs.

 

If he hadn’t discovered something was wrong in time and rushed to the hospital for gastric lavage, he might have been infected.

 

Therefore, Lu Ming was actually disgusted with Lu Yao’s behavior.

 

How could there be any truth in repaying someone with a grudge after someone saved your life?

 

If He Chengjun wasn’t married and Lu Yao pursued him openly, Lu Ming wouldn’t have said anything.

 

The key is that the other party is already married. If Lu Yao has a conscience, she should take the initiative to keep her distance instead of deliberately causing the other party’s wife to misunderstand and cause them to divorce.

 

Lu Ming sighed deeply: “Yaoyao, Dong Jiaojiao is already our aunt. It is impossible for you and He Chengjun. Give up!”

 

“I won’t! Dong Jiaojiao just wants to stop me from being with He Dage. She just deliberately seduced uncle to marry him. I will never let her get her wish! So what if she marries him? He Dage and Dong Jiaojiao are not related by blood, I can still marry He Dage.”

 

How could she give up so easily? He was the male protagonist of the original book, representing great wealth in the future.

 

Moreover, her confession yesterday was almost successful.

 

If the news of Dong Jiaojiao’s marriage hadn’t suddenly come, He Dage wouldn’t have broken off the relationship with her.

 

Lu Yao understands He Chengjun. It is difficult for anyone to accept that his ex-wife has become an elder.

 

If you want to blame, blame Dong Jiaojiao!

 

At this moment, Lu Yao’s hatred for Dong Jiaojiao was like a raging fire, burning stronger and stronger.

 

So, Lu Yao hurriedly sent Lu Ming away on the pretext of going back to the art troupe to rehearse.

 

Lu Ming also had something to do in the afternoon, so he couldn’t keep an eye on Lu Yao all the time.

 

Moreover, seeing Lu Yao in this state, she wouldn’t listen to what he said, and planned to wait until she calmed down a bit before persuading her.

 

As soon as Lu Yao and Lu Ming separated, she applied for a vehicle from the army and went to the city.

 

She wants to make Dong Jiaojiao irreversible. Don’t think that marrying her uncle will make everything fine.
