Chapter 214: Chapter 0214: Getting the Marriage License 2_1

The aroma filled the air, and all Lu Jiang could see was the delicate and soft glow on his wife’s face. His heartstrings felt as if they were being plucked incessantly. He stood up on one leg, couldn’t resist stealing a kiss, then swiftly sat back on his wheelchair before his wife could react, turned around quickly and left the threshold-free hall with the words "I will serve the rice."

"Scoundrel!" Feng Qingxue covered her kissed face, unable to hide her blush or suppress her embarrassment.

But Lu Jiang, as if nothing happened, called from the kitchen, "Qingxue, could you come over and serve the rice?"

It was only when he got to the kitchen that he realized with annoyance that he could only move one arm. If he pushed his wheelchair, he wouldn’t be able to serve the rice.

Feng Qingxue came over huffily, glaring at him a few times.

The thick-skinned Lu Jiang seemed not to notice, leaned over to her with a big grin, and presented her with a treat, "I heard from Xiaoyun that you like having boiled eggs in the morning, so I boiled four for you."

"Who can eat four at once?" Feng Qingxue was used to having a breakfast of three red dates, a bowl of porridge, and an egg.

Her eyes roamed around the kitchen and she noticed that besides the brown rice porridge with corn grits and the four boiled eggs that Lu Jiang mentioned, the kitchen table only had a plate of salty vegetables mixed with minced green peppers. The bamboo basket was covering more than a dozen mixed grain rolls under a fine cloth. What else didn’t she understand by now?

"I can only eat one." She served the food onto the dining table in the hall and pushed the three peeled eggs towards Lu Jiang.

Just as Lu Jiang was about to refuse, she stared at him. He quickly stuffed the eggs into his mouth, feeling extremely happy.

"What about Dad and the kids?" It would be awkward for the couple to eat separately!

Seeing Feng Qingxue caring about her father-in-law and nephews, Lu Jiang felt moved and said with a smile, "I’ll ask Tianjun and Guan Cheng to bring the food over once it’s ready. They just won’t eat with us. You’ll have to look after the old and the young when I’m not home." Who would dare to interrupt his honeymoon? Even Niu Yibao chose to eat at the cattle shed.

"Why should we be cautious around family? Let’s eat quickly so we can go see Dad later." Even though we have discarded feudal superstitions and no longer offer tea to greet our elders, a new daughter-in-law should acknowledge the elders.

"Okay!" Lu Jiang agreed readily.

When Papa Lu saw his glowing son and daughter-in-law, he couldn’t stop smiling. When Feng Qingxue served him water, he knew it was her way of presenting tea and saluting him, so he awkwardly replaced the tea with plain water.

"Very good!" Papa Lu, who valued traditional rituals, was very pleased and immediately handed Feng Qingxue a vermilion lacquer box.

It seems that he had already prepared for this.

"Thank you, Dad!" Feng Qingxue took the box and said sweetly.

Papa Lu laughed, "If your mother-in-law were here, it would be her job to give this to you. Now I have to fulfill her duties. Please bear with it. You two are now married. Good life is what truly matters. All else is trivial!" Hence, he didn’t mention anything about expanding the family.

"Dad, rest assured. We will definitely live a good life and make sure our family is well," Feng Qingxue reassured him sincerely.

Papa Lu was even more delighted to hear this.

He knew that Feng Qingxue was including herself, her brothers Tianjun, and Guan Cheng in her words.

In truth, he wasn’t worried.

Even before the wedding, Feng Qingxue had taken good care of them, no one took better care than her, and there was no need to say anything more after the wedding.
