Chapter 109 Master Qian and His Grandchildren
After falling ill twice in a row, Lu Jiaxin returned to Sijiu City and no longer complained about the bitterness of the medicine. Not only that, she also went out for a walk and did yoga, hoping to get better as soon as possible.
On the weekend, Lu Jiaguang's family of six came over. Lu Ping was a little embarrassed to thank Lu Jiaxin, who was half a head shorter than him: "Aunt, I like the clothes you bought."
The sportswear and sneakers bought for the two brothers Lu Ping and Lu An were not expensive, but they liked them very much.
Lu Jiaxin smiled and said, "I like it."
Lu Jiaguang and his wife and Ma Lili did not let the younger generation intervene in lunch. The three people heard the laughter coming from the yard in the kitchen, and smiles appeared on their faces.
Wang Xiaojie said to Lu Jiaguang: "Jiaguang, Jiaxin's place is spacious, and the children like her. Let them finish their homework on Saturdays and come over to play on Sundays."
Ma Lili also wanted Lu An and the others to come: "Brother, these days Qiangqiang and Xiaofeng often ask when you will come over. If you have nothing to do on Sunday, let them come over. The children will be happy and the house will be lively."
There was one thing that was not said. The children were together and got along well, and their relationship became close even if they played and quarreled. She had such a good relationship with her elder sister, so she hoped that the two children could get along well with their cousins, so that they could help each other when they grew up and encountered problems.
Lu Jiaguang did not agree, and said: "The doctor told Jiaxin to rest and rest well, so that she can get better quickly. When she recovers, let the children come over on Sunday."
Ma Lili said with a smile: "Brother, Jiaxin likes children the most, and she can't wait for you to bring the children over on weekends!"
Lu Jiaguang still refused. But when she met Lu Jiaxin, Ma Lili still told her about it.
Of course, Lu Jiaxin had no objection. It's definitely not okay to quarrel like this every day, but it's okay for Sunday, she also needs to relax: "It's going to be sunny next Sunday, I'll take them to the park to play."
The main thing is that Lu An and Zhenzhen are both grown up, and they can take care of Xiaofeng and Qiangqiang without her. If they were four or five years old, she would definitely not agree.
Lu Zhenzhen said eagerly: "Aunt, I want to go to the park to fly a kite."
"Okay, I'll buy it for you, one for each, and see who flies the best..."
Lu Zhenzhen raised her hands and clapped her hands happily: "Aunt is so nice, I can go to the park to fly a kite next week."
The food was rich, and each of the children had a bottle of soda, and everyone was so happy to eat. Qiangqiang even ate too much and cried for a stomachache, and Ma Lili scolded him while rubbing his stomach.
After dinner, the two sisters-in-law cleaned up. In the kitchen, Wang Xiaojie asked, "Lili, have you found a house? I have a friend whose relative is planning to sell a house near Shichahai."
The couple also helped to inquire about Lu Jiajie's affairs.
Ma Lili said her plan: "Sister-in-law, I want to buy a house here. There are schools nearby, so Jiaxin and I can take care of each other in the future."
Wang Xiaojie was a little surprised: "A house with a private door and courtyard here costs at least 7,000 or 8,000, which is far beyond your budget."
Ma Lili whispered: "With the money you lent me, I now have 7,000 on hand. Jiaxin said that if it is not enough, she can lend us the difference."
Wang Xiaojie felt that this girl was too generous. She just thought about her ability to make money and felt that there was no need to persuade her.
Lu Hongjun happened to be looking for Lu Jiaguang for something, and he made three calls but couldn't find anyone. When he got through the phone in the evening and learned that the family had gone to Lu Jiaxin's place during the day, he was so angry that he couldn't speak.
Lu Jiaguang asked, "Uncle San, what's the matter?"
Lu Hongjun was no longer in the mood to talk to him this time: "Come to my office tomorrow morning, it's very important."
After hanging up the phone, Lu Hongjun felt heavy in his heart, as if there was a stone pressing on him.
Two days later, Ma Lili tentatively said, "Xinxin, your dad is sick, do you want to go see him?"
"Is it serious?" Lu Jiaxin asked.
If he was dying, she would go to the hospital. However, Lu Hongjun was not dying, but she was not willing to go because of gastroenteritis.
Lu Jiaxin said expressionlessly, "He doesn't care about my life or death, and I don't think he is my dad. Fifth sister-in-law, don't mention him in front of me in the future."
Ma Lili didn't say anything, but her brows frowned. No matter what, he is my biological father. It's a bit too much not to visit him when he is sick and hospitalized.
Lu Jiaxin knew what she was thinking from her look. Just as she was about to speak, someone knocked on the door.
Ma Lili opened the door and saw a lame old man with a half-grown boy. She asked in surprise, "Who are you looking for?"
"My name is Qian San, and this is my granddaughter Xiao Xiao. We are here to look for Lu Jiaxin."
Ma Lili looked at Qian Xiao Xiao, who had a buzz cut. Whose girl had such short hair? She didn't look like she was from a good family. She didn't dare to let the two people in, and shouted loudly, "Jiaxin, there is a man named Qian San looking for you. Do you recognize him?"
When Lu Jiaxin heard this, she hurried over to greet the two grandparents. If they hadn't introduced themselves, they would have thought they were beggars at first glance! There were so many puddings on their clothes that you couldn't see the original color, and their hair was messy.
Qian San walked into the yard and shouted at the top of his voice: "Little girl, I'm hungry, do you have anything to eat?"
Lu Jiaxin said politely: "The rice is cooked, and the vegetables are still being fried. Master Qian, do you want to take a shower first? It's just right for dinner after you take a shower."
Master Qian didn't refuse, but just said that the two of them had no clothes to change.
Lu Jiaxin visually checked the height of the two people and said with a smile: "We have clothes that suit you, but I don't know if you would like to wear our old clothes."
Lu Jiajie is 1.79 meters tall, about the same height as Master Qian, but Qian Xiaoxiao is taller than her. But her current clothes are loose and she can wear them.
Master Qian waved his hand and said, "Children in Jianghu don't have to pay much attention to things when they go out, as long as they have food and clothing. Little girl, where can I wash myself?"
Hearing this, Ma Lili frowned even more tightly.
Lu Jiaxin pointed to the bathroom in the corner: "Just wash there. Master Qian, please wait a moment and I'll get you clothes and towels."
Turning around, she asked Ma Lili to bring out a set of Lu Jiajie's clothes.
Ma Lili lowered her voice and asked, "Xinxin, who is this? Don't bring all this mess to your home."
Lu Jiaxin said with a smile: "Fifth sister-in-law, don't judge a book by its appearance. Master Qian is very good at martial arts, and her granddaughter is also a martial arts practitioner. I plan to learn martial arts from them, firstly for self-defense and secondly for physical fitness."
"Who introduced it?"
"Brother Gu introduced him to his master's old friend for many years. Fifth Sister-in-law, Master Qian has a casual temper and no problem with his character."
