Refusing to marry a widower, I went on a crazy spree of sending my children to the army.

Chapter 534 The two-year age gap cannot be bridged by money or achievements!

Whether it's suitable or not, the person is already at their doorstep.

Xie Susu was surprised to see Li Dai, and after the initial shock, she felt a little awkward.

"Um, Comrade Li, please make yourself at home. I'm going inside to get something!"

As she spoke, she grabbed Lu Yuan's arm and pulled him into the house: "Good heavens, why is she here? Your uncle's eyes are glued to her the whole time."

"Could they actually be talking?"

Lu Yuan frowned: "No way, no way. They've only met twice. It would be too fast to confirm their relationship!"

"At what meeting did you and Manman officially become a couple?" Xie Susu asked.

Lu Yuan touched his nose: "I don't remember very clearly!"

Xie Susu clicked her tongue twice: "I know my son. It's either the second or the third time we've met, no more!"

Lu Yuan pursed his lips: "Maybe, who knows!"

The smile on her face was impossible to hide.

"By the way, do you have any red envelopes? It's the Lunar New Year, shouldn't I give you one?"

"Yes!" Lu Yuan pulled a red envelope from the drawer: "How much should I put in it?"

"Ten yuan, please. Let's leave a good impression on Comrade Li!"

Lu Yuan nodded and put a brand new ten-yuan note inside.

After handing it to Xie Susu, they did the same thing and packed a few more.

Xie Susu's eyes lit up: "You little rascal, you're up to no good!"

"I just want to give my uncle a chance."

After all, he's getting on in years; if he misses this opportunity, he might have a hard time finding a wife!

Don't worry, once Comrade Li leaves, we'll have him reimburse us."

"Money is a small matter; the problem is that it can't be forced."

If Comrade Li doesn't have that kind of intention, we absolutely must not push him in that direction.

"I know!"

Lu Yuan glanced at the door and lowered his voice: "Actually, apart from their age difference, the two are quite compatible."

"The problem is that the ages don't match. A twenty-year age gap can't be bridged by money or achievements."

"Actually, if Comrade Li doesn't care about what others think, it's not impossible!"

Lu Yuan glanced at Qiao Manman and thought to himself that with so many miraculous medicines, his wife could help He Jingcheng maintain his health and live another twenty years without much problem.

"Alright, let's not talk about this anymore, let's hurry up and go out to greet the guests!"

Lu Yuan nodded, grabbed a bag of snacks, and went out. There were beef jerky, White Rabbit candy, and hazelnut chocolate.

"Happy New Year, Comrade Li. Please eat whatever you like and don't be shy."

"Thank you, Commander Lu. This is my Spring Festival gift to everyone!"

As he spoke, he took out a box from his crossbody bag, which contained a fountain pen, a badge, a silk scarf, a cloisonné bracelet, and an agate Pixiu.

Xie Susu suddenly felt that her red envelope was a bit embarrassing to give away.

"You, coming to my door, why did you prepare such an expensive gift?"

One or two items may seem insignificant, but when added together, they amount to a huge sum of money!

"Auntie, I just feel a connection with you, which is why I'm willing to bring out all the good things I've collected from all over the country over the years!"

Everything is new, it's just been sitting out for a while, please don't mind!

"How could that be? These are clearly carefully selected by you. You've really gone to great lengths."

Here, this is a red envelope from your aunt. Wishing you all the best in the new year.

"Thank you, Auntie!" Li Dai didn't hesitate and put the red envelope in her pocket.

Qiao Lingyue glanced over here: "My wife and I only prepared portions for Manman and Lu Yuan. Since you're here, we can't let you go back empty-handed."

As soon as he finished speaking, He Jingcheng slipped him a red envelope.

Qiao Lingyue glared at him: "You're quite obedient!"

He Jingcheng chuckled, not daring to utter a single word.
