Chapter 209 Teasing
Chapter 209 Teasing
How could Lu Yuanqing not know something that the whole village knew?
Lu Yuanbo returned home in a panic, only to find everyone there.
Even Lu Mingnan came back from the bamboo ware factory; he's usually not home at this time.
The three little ones should have been playing outside too.
Seeing his family's concern and desire to comfort him, Lu Yuanbo laughed heartily, "What are you all doing at home? Xiao Nan, didn't you go to learn from your master? Are you just playing around instead? Your third uncle will scold you when he sees you! Xiao Bao, why didn't you take your younger siblings out to play?"
"Fourth Uncle, they say the person you like was snatched away by Gu Hewang!" Cheng Xiaobao asked.
"Fourth Uncle, let's go and take it back!" Lu Mingbei said angrily.
"Yes, let's go beat up Gu Hewang!"
Lu Yuanbo looked at them with amusement: "Who are you going to hit? Who do you think you can hit with your small bodies!"
"We're all going!" Lu Mingbei grabbed his clothes and tried to pull him towards the door, looking quite ready to fight!
Lu Yuanbo was speechless. Who was this three-headed creature trying to fight?
"So, we really got robbed!" Lu Mingnan exclaimed in shock!
He heard many versions at the bamboo ware factory, but he never expected the final version to be this one.
When did my fourth uncle start dating? How long have they been dating? How did someone steal him away?
Lu Yuanbo felt inexplicably tired. "No, it's all just rumors. I'm not even dating anyone yet!"
"So someone beat them to it?"
These words were spoken by Lu Yuanqing, who had just returned home.
"Brother, you're back!" Lu Yuanbo turned around and called out somewhat embarrassedly.
"What does 'first come, first served' mean?" Cheng Xiaobao asked, raising his hand.
Lu Mingdong: "It's something your fourth uncle had his eye on, but before he could even make a move, someone else snatched it away!"
"What?" Cheng Xiaobao's face darkened. "It was robbed again? Let's go get it back!"
"Yes!" Lu Mingbei roared, seemingly eager to stir up trouble.
Lu Yuanqing walked to the dining table and gently tapped Lu Mingdong's forehead. "Don't give them any nonsense explanations!"
"You guys, don't cause trouble. Go back to your rooms and do your homework. No playing outside until you finish it!"
After sending the three children away, Lu Yuanqing turned to Lu Yuanbo and said, "It seems you already know. Then tell me, what does it mean that you are Gu Hewang's matchmaker?"
Lu Yuanbo suddenly looked up at him, "Who said that?"
Is he a complete idiot? He even introduced the person he had his eye on to someone else!
“Gu Hewang’s mother!” Lu Yuanqing said.
“Nonsense, how could I…” Lu Yuanbo’s rebuttal was interrupted by a pause.
He suddenly thought of something.
"Brother, maybe I really did get ripped off!" Lu Yuanbo said to Lu Yuanqing, sobbing.
Lu Yuanqing took a sip of the cool boiled water that Lu Mingdong handed him and said, "Tell me!"
Lu Yuanbo plopped down on the stool, fuming, and said, "Just half a month ago, wasn't I sent by the brigade leader to the commune to fetch fertilizer?"
At that time, the village was preparing the fields for rice planting on May Day.
He drove the tractor there, so it was quick.
On the way, he met Gu Hewang, who was on his way to the commune.
Although the two families had a disagreement, so much time had passed that Lu Yuanbo couldn't have seen it. The other party even tried to hitch a ride, but he just saw it and did nothing about it!
We're all from the same village. If we go back and talk, we'll run into each other all the time, and it won't be good.
He was going to the commune to take care of some business, so he naturally drove the tractor all the way to the commune, where Gu Hewang got off.
That day was also the day he met Fang Qingqing.
In other words, he and Gu Hewang met Fang Qingqing at the same time. After learning that they were from the same production team and spending a few days together, Fang Qingqing agreed to Gu Hewang's advances.
The story is simple, and there's no conspiracy theory involved.
However, Lu Yuanqing was puzzled: "After you met that Fang Qingqing, did you go to the commune to see her a few times?"
"4 times!"
"Even though you haven't run into Gu Hewang, you still go to see her?" Lu Yuanqing frowned!
Lu Yuanbo shook his head: "No!"
"During your time with Fang Qingqing, she never mentioned Gu Hewang?"
Lu Yuanbo was dumbfounded, "No!"
"Hmph!" Lu Yuanqing was truly amused and exasperated.
Lu Yuanbo looked at him, puzzled: "Brother, what's wrong?"
"Don't be angry! I don't feel anything." I'm just a little upset, but we've only met a few times, so it's not that I'm particularly sad.
What angered him even more was that the target of his anger was Gu Hewang.
That wicked guy, Lu Yuanbo had already fallen out with him!
Lu Yuanqing sighed.
"Why shouldn't I be angry? What right do I have not to be angry?"
The more he talked, the angrier he became, and Lu Yuanqing slammed his hand on the table.
"Fourth brother, don't worry, I will definitely avenge you for the loss you suffered this time!"
After saying that, Lu Yuanqing angrily went to find someone!
Lu Yuanbo was completely dumbfounded.
"No, why is my brother so angry? She doesn't like me, she likes Gu Hewang, there's nothing I can do about it! Didn't my brother say we should respect other people's choices?" Lu Yuanbo was completely puzzled and could only ask Lu Mingdong.
"Although it's Gu Hewang, I'm a little unhappy, but I'm not that angry!"
Lu Mingdong also wanted to sigh, "Fourth Uncle, Third Uncle is speaking up for you!"
"Huh?" Lu Yuanbo stared blankly at Lu Mingdong, completely unable to understand what he had to complain about.
Lu Mingdong subconsciously wanted to say "idiot," but when he thought of his fourth uncle who was sitting opposite him and had suffered such a tragedy in his life, he swallowed it back.
"Fourth Uncle, don't you understand?"
Lu Yuanbo asked helplessly, "What am I supposed to understand?"
Why do I have this feeling that he's really stupid? He never used to admit it!
Lu Mingdong: "..." He didn't want to explain at all; he was too tired!
"You and Gu Hewang both knew Fang Qingqing, right? This means that Fang Qingqing knew you knew each other!"
"But! In the four times Fang Qingqing spent with you, she never once told you that she was also dating Gu Hewang!"
“Maybe…” Lu Yuanbo explained somewhat reluctantly.
Lu Mingdong sneered: "If Gu Hewang didn't have a date with Fang Qingqing, then why did his mother know about it all along? And why was she gossiping about it to Uncle San today to provoke him?"
"What? She said that to my brother's face?" Lu Yuanbo was furious! There wasn't a single good person in the Gu family.
Uh, Gu Baoxia doesn't count!
Lu Mingdong: "Otherwise, why do you think it's possible that something that was nowhere to be heard about yesterday has spread throughout the entire production team today? It's all thanks to Gu Hewang's mother helping to spread the word!"
The propaganda claims that Lu Yuanbo is no match for Gu Hewang, and even his wife was easily snatched away by someone else!
Lu Yuanbo: "..." Is the rumor really that outrageous? He and Fang Qingqing haven't even established a relationship yet!
"Fine, Fang Qingqing played me? She didn't tell me about her relationship with Gu Hewang, but what's there to be angry about?"
Lu Mingdong rolled his eyes and said, "Third Uncle is angry because he thinks you were played by Fang Qingqing and Gu Hewang!"
"Fang Qingqing was clearly using a 'keeping your options open' tactic, assessing your situation and Gu Hewang's situation. So, she dated both of you at the same time, and in the end, you were out, and Gu Hewang succeeded."
"You can tell from Gu Hewang's mother's behavior today that Gu Hewang probably knew all along that you were also pursuing Fang Qingqing. But even though he knew, he pursued Fang Qingqing in secret. As soon as Fang Qingqing agreed, his mother started spreading rumors about you in the village."
Lu Yuanbo frowned: "So, my brother..."
Lu Mingdong nodded. "You know how Uncle San is. He would never let any of us be played like this."
Lu Yuanqing not only protects his own, but also holds grudges.
He will definitely take revenge on Lu Yuanbo and his gang for playing tricks on him like this!
