Chapter 420 What She Liked The Most?
Days were pa.s.sing by moving closer to the wedding . During the time between the wedding, there were few events which were meant to be celebrated and that was Elder Lu"s wedding anniversary which was coming after one week, Jiang Yuyan"s birthday after three weeks and the next week of her birthday was going to be a wedding .
This time there was no big celebration of elder Lu"s wedding anniversary as elders wished to celebrate it only with family members . As there was going to happen the most awaited celebration in the family, elder Lu Wished to invite the Ming family for the wedding though he knew it was impossible that Elder Ming will come when he didn"t even come for the engagement . Somewhere Elder Lu was still having hopes as Mo Ruolan was his niece and Jiang Yuyan was his Niece"s daughter and his granddaughter .
Two weeks before the wedding…
After dinner, elder Lu was sitting in the garden with his elder son Lu Jinhai and Lu Qiang happened to go there along with Lu Lijun . Lu Qiang noticed they both were discussing something and had serious expressions on their faces .
"Lu Lijun, you go to the gazebo first and I will be there in some time," Lu Qiang said looking at Lu Lijun who was walking along with him carrying a bunch of colorful papers .
"Okay, Brother . " Saying Lu Lijun went to the gazebo while Lu Qiang went to his father and grandfather who were sitting in the chairs around a circular wooden center table .
Both saw Lu Qiang approaching them . As Lu Qiang reached there, elder Lu said, "It"s good that you are here . Have a seat . "
Lu Qiang nodded, "Hmm! What"s the matter?" he asked while sitting in one of the chairs .
"We were discussing about my old stubborn friend," Elder Lu replied giving out a deep sigh .
"Elder Ming?" Lu Qiang asked .
"Who else can that be?" Elder Lu looked sad .
Seeing how sad his grandpa looked, Lu Qiang said, "I was planning to go to Ming Mansion to invite elder Ming personally for the wedding . "
Hearing it, both Lu Jinhai and elder Lu were shocked and Lu Jinhai asked, "Personally? Are you sure?"
"Yes, father . Elder Ming is Yuyan"s grandfather so I think it would be better to invite him personally and as both of you can"t go there, I will be the one to do it," Lu Qiang answered .
"If we go there, he won"t even see our faces," Elder Lu said .
"The same thing can happen with Lu Qiang, father as he is one Lu after all," Lu Jinhai said worriedly .
"Don"t worry, father . I will handle it . " Lu Qiang a.s.sured his father and looked at his grandfather, "You can trust me, grandpa . "
"Hmm!" Elder Lu nodded .
Leaving, his father and grandfather to discuss the things, Lu Qiang went back to Lu Lijun who was sitting in one of the semi-circular benches in the gazebo with his legs on either side of the bench .
"What are you making, Lu Lijun?" Lu Qiang asked while standing in front of the entrance of the gazebo with his hands tucked in his white cotton pajamas .
"I am trying to make paper cranes and different things from the paper . " Lu Lijun answered with his eyes s.h.i.+ning brightly with a smile on his lips . Whenever he was around Lu Qiang alone like this, one could see the real innocent Lu Lijun, the way he smiled and the way his eyes shone brightly forgetting the world .
Stepping towards him, Lu Qiang sat on the same semi-circular bench the same way as Lu Lijun with his legs on either side of the bench while facing Lu Lijun and the stack of paper in between them . Lu Qiang picked up one paper to create something from it . As Lu Qiang started to make something, Lu Lijun finished what he was making and said, "See brother, I made a frog . "
Lu Qiang smiled to see it and said, "It"s nice . "
"See, it can jump too . " Saying Lu Lijun kept that paper frog on the bench and pressed down the folded side on its back making it jump forward . "
Seeing it, Lu Qiang too tried it and said, "I used to make it when we were kids . Yuyan liked to do such things and I, Lu Feng and Jiang Yang used to accompany her . We even learned so many different things for her . "
"What she liked the most out of all?" Lu Lijun asked .
"I will show you . " Saying Lu Qiang started to make something by folding and twisting the paper . Just in a minute, Lu Qiang created a bird, "This one she liked the most . " The bird had a pointed beak, a tail and the wings on either side .
"It"s really nice . " Lu Lijun was happy to see it .
Lu Qiang held that bird in front of him and said, "This bird can flap its wings too . " Lu Qiang pulled back the tail of the bird and the wings of the bird moved up and down . "Try it," Lu Qiang said while giving that bird to Lu Lijun .
Accepting it, Lu Lijun started to move the tail of the bird and its wings were moving along with it as many times as he moved the tail . "Teach me this, brother . "
Lu Qiang nodded and in a while Lu Lijun was able to create the same bird out of those papers . "It"s done . " Lu Lijun was happy with successfully being able to do it in just one try .
"Let"s make something else . " Saying Lu Qiang Picked up a few more papers .
"What are you going to make, I will follow you," Lu Lijun said .
"A dragon, fish, and let"s see what else we can do," Lu Qiang answered and pa.s.sed a paper to Lu Lijun asking him to follow what he was doing .
Both were busy creating these beautiful things from those papers and with each creation one could hear Lu Lijun"s light laughing .
Lu Feng came to the garden and he was busy talking on the phone . He saw Lu Lijun and Lu Qiang were busy doing something . Once he finished a call, he went to the gazebo . Lu Lijun noticed Lu Feng and said, "Brother Lu Feng, see what we are doing . "
