Chapter 635 - 618: Matchmaking (1)
September 14 is Mid-Autumn Festival, and Old Master Nie hopes Lu Jiaxin can come to the old house for the celebration. Although Nie Manli considers her husband first, she is also very filial, bringing their three children back to accompany the old master during the Dragon Boat and Mid-Autumn Festivals.
Nie Zhan flatly refused, saying, "Jiaxin doesn’t like environments that are too noisy, I’ll just spend Mid-Autumn with her."
Old Master Nie didn’t dwell on it: "I’ve heard about your future father-in-law. Ah Zhan, no matter how busy you are, you should visit him; otherwise, the Lu Family might doubt your sincerity towards Jiaxin."
He didn’t know why Lu Hongjun was arrested, but since the case was over and he wasn’t sentenced, he didn’t ask much more, as it wasn’t necessary. They were in Hong Kong, and his grandson wasn’t following a political career, so it didn’t matter.
Nie Zhan didn’t say that Lu Jiaxin wouldn’t let him go, and Old Master Nie, who was old-fashioned, liked obedient children: "Grandpa, I am really too busy at the moment. I’ve already arranged with Jiaxin to visit my father-in-law in the Forty-nine City on Friday."
Old Master Nie nodded, saying, "We didn’t go through the formal engagement process, so apologies must be made to your father-in-law. It’s also because of my poor health. Otherwise, I would have gone with you."
Nie Zhan nodded.
The day before Mid-Autumn Festival, Zong Shimeng invited Lu Jiaxin and Yu Meitong for a shopping spree. As the weather was about to cool down in October, she was making a big purchase. But unlike before, she only bought clothes for the elderly and children.
Yu Meitong laughed and said, "Sister Shimeng, why didn’t you also buy clothes for your husband?"
"He has someone to help him with that, so I don’t have to worry about it."
