On the way back, Lu Yiwei looked unhappy. When Fan Chunfang saw this, she asked cautiously, "Yiwei, are you unhappy?"
Lu Yiwei forced a smile and said, "No."
Fan Chunfang hurriedly explained, "Yiwei, my parents have a bad temper. You will get used to it after a while. If you don't want to come back, then we can come back less in the future. "
Fan Chunfang was innocent, so Lu Yiwei did not vent his anger on her. He said, "Don't think too much. I didn't mean it that way."
Back home, Fan Chunfang hurriedly got Lu Yiwei slippers and helped him take off his coat. She also took out the pajamas that she had prepared, brewed tea, put the cigarettes in front of him, washed the fruits … She hoped to influence Lu Yiwei through this method.
Seeing everything in front of him, wasn't this the life he had once yearned for? However, the mistress was not the wife he had imagined.
Lu Yiwei never dreamed that he would end up with Fan Chunfang, and even get married in a muddle. Was all of this destined?
At night, when it was time to sleep, Fan Chunfang took a shower early and went to bed to wait. As for Lu Yiwei, he refused to enter the house. He sat on the sofa and smoked, watching TV until late at night.
Fan Chunfang was excited and nervous at first, but later on, she became more disappointed. There were several times when she wanted to wake Lu Yiwei to sleep, but she did not even have the courage to do so. She covered her head and wept alone. Had she made the wrong choice?
Unknowingly, Fan Chunfang felt Lu Yiwei climb onto the bed. Her heartbeat quickened as she looked forward to that beautiful moment. However, Lu Yiwei took off his glasses and fell asleep with his back facing her. There were no signs of him waking up.
Fan Chunfang struggled for a long time before she finally plucked up the courage to lean on Lu Yiwei. She trembled as she grabbed his hand and placed it on her chest …
"Chunfang, I'm a little tired." Lu Yiwei withdrew his hand and pretended to be tired.
Fan Chunfang's heart turned cold as she stood there in a daze, not knowing what to do …
The next day, when Lu Yiwei woke up, he realized that Fan Chunfang was nowhere to be seen. He thought that she ran home angrily, so he hurriedly got up and ran out of the bedroom. When he saw Fan Chunfang busy cooking in the kitchen, he felt relieved.
When Fan Chunfang saw that Lu Yiwei had woken up, she said with a smile, "You are up. Wash your face and brush your teeth. Dinner will be ready soon."
Lu Yiwei had thought that she would be unhappy, but she acted as if nothing had happened. His heart was filled with guilt. But if he really did take that step, he would not be able to overcome the obstacle in his heart no matter what.
After washing up, Lu Yiwei sat in front of the dining table. Seeing the sumptuous breakfast on the table, his heart warmed. He was used to living a single life, so he was not used to having a woman take care of him all of a sudden.
"Hurry up and eat. It'll be cold soon." Fan Chunfang stuck her head out from the kitchen and said.
"Oh." Lu Yiwei used his chopsticks to pick up a piece of pastry and took a bite. It was crispy and delicious. He did not expect that his only daughter, Fan Chunfang, would have such culinary skills. He was impressed.
Soon, Fan Chunfang placed a bowl of porridge in front of Lu Yiwei and said with a chuckle, "Try the congee with pork and century egg I made."
Lu Yiwei took a sip. The taste was indeed good. A smile bloomed on his face and he said, "I did not expect you to know how to cook. It's pretty good."
After receiving Lu Yiwei's affirmation, Fan Chunfang rubbed her hands in excitement. She seemed to have forgotten the unpleasantness from the previous night. She said, "I did not know how to make it in the past. I learned it on the spot online. Just this porridge, I experimented more than ten times before I succeeded."
He did not expect Fan Chunfang to be so serious. Lu Yiwei nodded and said, "Hurry up and eat."
At the dining table, although the two did not speak much, they would exchange glances from time to time. For Fan Chunfang, she was satisfied.
The two had a week's wedding holiday. Halfway through, Lu Yiwei could not stay any longer. However, he did not know how to explain it to Fan Chunfang. According to Fan Rongkui's arrangements, they were required to go overseas to Greece for their honeymoon. However, Lu Yiwei was not in the mood and strongly opposed it. When Fan Chunfang saw that Lu Yiwei did not want to go out, she quickly explained to her parents before letting it go.
Just as she was thinking, someone knocked on the door rudely.
Who would come at this hour? Could it be her parents? Impossible. Even if it was, there was no need to go to such lengths.
Looking at Lu Yiwei's puzzled face, Fan Chunfang got up and said, "I will go open it."
"Come, bring it in quickly." Niu Fuyong directed the movers to move things into the house.
Lu Yiwei got up and said, "Fuyong, what are you doing?"
Niu Fuyong ignored Lu Yiwei and raised his voice to reprimand the movers, "Can you be more careful? Can you afford to pay for it if it is damaged? "
In a short while, the floor was filled with things. There was a television, a refrigerator, a washing machine, a computer, and even a crib. Lu Yiwei did not know whether to laugh or cry, "Fuyong, did you strike it rich?"
Niu Fuyong glanced at it with a gloomy face and immediately put on a smile and said to Fan Chunfang, "This must be sister-in-law?"
Fan Chunfang was especially happy to be addressed as such. She nodded and said, "You must be Brother Fuyong. Come in!"
"You know me?" Niu Fuyong said in surprise.
Fan Chunfang smiled and said, "Don't forget, I worked in Nanyang County before. You are a famous person in the county."
"Haha, yes. Look at my memory." Niu Fuyong walked to the living room and sat on the sofa. He took out a thick envelope and handed it to Fan Chunfang and said, "Sister-in-law, I did not attend your wedding. I will make it up to you now. Keep it."
From the moment Niu Fuyong entered the house, he did not speak to Lu Yiwei at all. He was like an outsider. Seeing Niu Fuyong like this, Lu Yiwei went up to stop him and said, "Fuyong, what are you doing? Quickly keep it."
Niu Fuyong finally could not hold it in anymore and pushed Lu Yiwei away and said, "Don't talk to me. I am giving this to sister-in-law. It is not your turn to care." He then said to Fan Chunfang, "Come, sister-in-law, take it!" and forcefully stuffed it into Fan Chunfang's hands.
Fan Chunfang awkwardly asked Lu Yiwei for his opinion. She did not know what to do.
Lu Yiwei said, "Fuyong, quickly keep it. We are brothers. Don't do these useless things."
"Do you treat me as a brother?" Niu Fuyong straightened his neck and stared at Lu Yiwei and questioned, "Why didn't you tell me about your wedding?"
Lu Yiwei avoided his eyes and said, "Not only you, I did not inform …"
"Yiwei, I have to talk about this." Niu Fuyong angrily sat on the sofa and said, "You are doing this. It means you do not treat me as a brother. Is there anyone like you?" As he said, tears welled up in his eyes.
"You are a man. Don't be a sissy." Lu Yiwei saw Niu Fuyong like this and quickly said, "It is my fault for not informing you. But there is no need for you to buy so many things at once. We already have everything we need at home."
"I don't care!" Niu Fuyong said, "If you don't need them, you can throw them out after I leave. That's your problem."
Niu Fuyong's behavior surprised Fan Chunfang. She did not expect him to be so loyal. She quickly changed the topic, "Fuyong, you have not eaten yet. I will go and get you some rice."
"Sister-in-law, don't bother. I have eaten." Niu Fuyong was still polite to Fan Chunfang.
"Eat some more after you have eaten." After that, he turned and went into the kitchen.
Lu Yiwei took out a cigarette and passed it to Niu Fuyong and explained, "Fuyong, I will explain this to you later. I can't explain it in a few sentences now. Don't be like an iron cannon, blasting as soon as you enter the door. When did I forget you? "
Niu Fuyong felt uncomfortable and said, "No matter what reason you have, marriage is a big thing. You should at least let me know."
"Alright, alright. It is my fault. I will apologize to you. Haha." Lu Yiwei was amused by Niu Fuyong's seriousness.
Niu Fuyong felt a little better and said, "I've been really busy these days. If Hai Dong hadn't told me he didn't know, I wouldn't have been a good friend."
Lu Yiwei changed the topic, "How is your coal mine?"
"Very good!" Niu Fuyong could not hide his excitement and said, "I am not bragging. This time last year, I was still a pauper. But this year, not only did I earn back all the money I invested, I even made a profit. The industrial park will be completed soon, and the coal washing plant will start operation next month. The coking plant will start operation later, at most in the second half of the year. Once these two big projects start, the money will flow in like water. Haha. "
Looking at it this way, Zhang Zhiyuan's idea of consolidating Beihe Coal Mine and setting up an industrial park was right. He said sincerely, "Making money like this is much better than making a small fuss and living in fear, right?"
"Of course." Niu Fuyong said, "I have thought it through now. No matter what I do, I need to know how to use it. I can make money openly. What's there to be afraid of?"
"Haha …" Lu Yiwei laughed. "You are finally enlightened."
Niu Fuyong said, "Oh, Brother Lu, do you still remember Batu?"
"Of course. Isn't he your good brother?"
"Mm." Niu Fuyong said, "A few years ago, I told you that he wants to build a power plant in Beihe Town. Zhang Zhiyuan is not optimistic about this project, so it has been shelved. Now, the construction is about to start. "
"Oh? The relevant documents have been approved? "Lu Yiwei was surprised.
"No." Niu Fuyong said, "I have spoken to He Jian about this, and he made the decision on the spot. When I go back and tell Secretary Xiao, this matter is settled."
Hearing this, Lu Yiwei is worried. Beihe Town's water resources have been damaged due to the mining of coal, and now there is a thermal power plant. In a few years, the enterprises will compete with the villagers for water. This is also the reason why Zhang Zhiyuan did not make the decision. He did not expect Xiao Zhiliang to agree. Dong Xuebing had left Nan Yang County, and he cannot criticize the current leader. Everyone has their own thoughts, and he cannot say who is right or wrong. He can only let history judge.
Lu Yiwei said, "No one in the County went to the mine to cause trouble, right?"
"With He Jian's protection, who dares?" Niu Fuyong said, "This brother is really a good brother. This year, the County is going to start another seven or eight projects, and he dragged me to participate in them. He is always thinking about me."
Lu Yiwei said worriedly, "Fuyong, He Jian looks like a carefree and loyal person, but you and I do not know him. We must be wary of him."
"Don't worry." Niu Fuyong said, "In this world, other than you, I will not trust anyone."
Lu Yiwei was touched by Niu Fuyong's words. Dong Xuebing said, "We are brothers, let's not talk about these useless things. Don't leave this afternoon. I will treat you to a feast and a drink."
