Chapter 1393: Chapter 1393 Xibao Goes to School 1

When the three brothers of Lu Tianzhi arrived home, Lu Tianjun and Jiang Xiaoyue had already been there for two days, having met all the elders that they should have.

As Lu Tianzhi handed the jewelry box to his father, Jiang Xiaoyue wouldn’t let go of Xibao, and if it weren’t for the respect of elders present, she would have started spinning around with Xibao, "Xibao, you’ve grown so tall, what have you been eating? You’re just too skinny."

"I grew from eating food, Sister Xiaoyue," Xibao replied happily upon seeing Jiang Xiaoyue.

Although he had a good memory, he couldn’t recall the events of when he was two or three years old. Fortunately, the house was filled with many photos, and Feng Qingxue would often tell him about the past, so he had a clear impression of Jiang Xiaoyue.

Jiang Xiaoyue said, "You must not be eating enough, otherwise you wouldn’t be this skinny."

"Xiaoyue, come here," Lu Father called out.

Jiang Xiaoyue, who respected her elders, quickly pulled Xibao with her to Lu Father’s side, "Grandpa, did you call me for something?"

Lu Father directly closed the jewelry box after taking a couple of looks and handed it over to her, "Take this."

"What is this?" Jiang Xiaoyue asked, holding the heavy jewelry box with a curious face.

"It’s the Lu Family’s betrothal gift."

As soon as Lu Father’s words fell, everyone saw Jiang Xiaoyue blushing, "Grandpa!"

Lu Tianjun said, "If Grandpa gives it to you, you should take it."

He remembered Grandpa telling him that when his uncle and aunt got married, they also gave an unofficial betrothal gift to his aunt.

Lu Tianzhi nodded his head like an old hen pecking at rice and said with a grin, "That’s right, Sister-in-law, although there’s no three matchmakers and six betrothals anymore, and we didn’t make ’three turns with a loud snap, seventy-two legs’, we still have an ancestral betrothal gift for you, representing the Lu Family’s intention. Let Brother make up the ’three turns with a loud snap, seventy-two legs’ to you later."

"Tianzhi!" Jiang Xiaoyue stamped her foot.

"He’s right," Lu Tianjun’s dark face showed a hint of a smile, "Don’t be mad."

"I’m not mad, it just feels too heavy." The weight in Jiang Xiaoyue’s hands felt heavy, and so did her heart. She had just heard that it was Lu Jiang and Feng Qingxue who sent it with Lu Tianzhi, "My uncle and aunt already gave me something that year, there’s really no need to give anything more now. Uncle and Aunt have to provide for five kids!"

Lu Jiang and Feng Qingxue were sandwiched between caring for the old and the young, with large living expenses, while she and Lu Tianjun were young with no burden, and all their basic needs were covered by the military, their support for the family was limited; how could they accept more from them?

Lu Father had always liked Jiang Xiaoyue’s straightforward and cheerful personality; hearing what she said made him like her even more.

The marriage between Lu Tianjun and Jiang Xiaoyue, from start to finish, neither the Jiang Family nor Jiang Xiaoyue had made any demands. They only valued Lu Tianjun as a person, not anything external.

"Your uncle and aunt are capable, they have a space filled with plenty of supplies, the clothes and food the children need don’t require worry from you two young ones," Lu Father was quite aware of his daughter-in-law’s space with many resources. Currently, they lacked nothing but clothes and food, right? There was no need to worry about education, "Although your family didn’t ask for anything, we cannot treat it as a trivial matter, this is what you deserve, and Acheng, Ayu, and Tianzhi will all have it when they get married. Our family has come this far, it’s incomparable to when Tianjun’s dad got married, but you just make do with a little less."

Although Guan Cheng and Guan Yu were not his biological grandsons, in Lu Father’s heart, there was no difference from his own grandsons. In the years that Lu Tianjun served in the military, the heavy burden of the family was taken up by Guan Cheng, and Lu Father saw and remembered this.
