Chapter 193 Lu Hongjun Regrets
Lu Jiaxin walked with Gu Xiuxiu for more than half an hour, and then helped her to the second floor. Watching her finish calling He Bin, he chatted with her for a while before going upstairs.
She made an appointment with Lu Jiazong to talk on the phone at six o'clock.
As soon as the phone call came through, Lu Jiaguang heard her voice and asked, "Jiaxin, your second brother said you passed the exam. When will school start? Are everything ready?"
Lu Jiaxin replied patiently one by one; "Brother, don't worry, I'm fine here. My aunt loves Haifan and I very much, and she just said she would buy me a house next to the school."
"Buy a house for you? The houses in Hong Kong City are very expensive, right?"
Lu Jiaxin hummed and said, "The one with a slightly better location will cost 4,000 to 5,000 square meters, and the one with 1,000 square meters will cost 4,500,000. But this is her old lady's wish, and I can't refuse."
Lu Jiaguang clicked his tongue. Previously, his sister's income of more than 700,000 yuan was considered an astronomical figure, but he did not expect that a random deal in Hong Kong City would cost 400,000 to 500,000 yuan. He forgot to convert it into Chinese dollars, but even Chinese dollars is an astronomical figure for many people in the mainland.
Lu Jiaxin asked about the situation at home and heard him say that everything was fine, especially since Xiaoqiu was learning how to tailor clothes from an old tailor. Although this little girl is not good at studying, she is still willing to work hard on the things she likes.
After chatting about family matters, Lu Jiaguang told her one more thing: "Your fifth brother wants to open a shoe factory. Everyone in the family is opposed to it, but he said it was you who suggested it and that opening a shoe factory has great prospects."
Lu Jiaxin did say this: "Brother, anything related to food, clothing, housing and transportation has prospects, but whether you can make money or not depends on the person."
"Brother, the fifth brother is already twenty-six years old and is no longer a child. Let him do what he wants to do, and you should not interfere."
Lu Jiaguang said: "I am not opposed to him opening a shoe factory, but I am opposed to him opening a shoe factory in partnership with others. I have met those two friends and they are both very smart people. If you cooperate with those two people, if you make money, the other party will probably Kick him away; if he loses money, he will take the blame."
Lu Jiaxin felt that if Lu Jiaguang said this, Lu Jiajie would think that he looked down on his friends, let alone listen to advice. However, she did not try to persuade Lu Jiajie. She still said the same thing. She is not a three-year-old child. She is responsible for the consequences of her own decisions: "Tell him not to form a partnership with others. If you don't have enough money, you can open a small workshop first. If you don’t listen, then leave him alone.”
She was confident, and she was not prepared to partner with Su Heyuan for too long. When she was free, she would open another clothing company.
Lu Jiaguang originally wanted her to persuade Lu Jiajie, but he gave up after hearing this: "We don't have to worry about you here, everything is fine. You have to be more careful over there alone."
"I know. Brother, you too, please pay attention to your health."
The phone hung up, and Xiaoqiu was a little anxious: "Uncle, why did you hang up the phone before I even spoke to my sister-in-law?"
Second Sister-in-law Lu scolded: "The phone bill is so expensive, what can you say? Didn't your sister-in-law say that everything is fine with her over there?"
Xiaoqiu pouted unhappily.
After the group of people left the main room, Lu Jiazong said with a smile: "Brother, my third uncle has been talking about Jia Xin these days. Now that he knows she passed the entrance exam, he will definitely be very happy. When he is in a good mood, his illness will heal quickly."
Lu Hongjun lived alone and never had a meal, and he had a bad stomach. After suffering stomach bleeding and being hospitalized, the three families took turns taking care of her.
Lu Jiaguang was silent for a moment and said, "Don't tell him about Jiaxin's call back."
"Why?"
Lu Jiaguang explained: "Jiaxin contacted us but didn't ask about Third Uncle. If Third Uncle knew, it would only make him more sad."
Lu Jiazong thought about it and felt that if he was sick and his children ignored him, his illness would probably get worse. After sending the person back to the house, he still couldn't help but sigh.
Sister-in-law Lu was very unhappy when she saw him like this: "Now we are making a lot of money by setting up stalls every day, and my daughter's clothing store is also making money. What else are you dissatisfied with?"
Nowadays, she can really wake up laughing even when she falls asleep.
Lu Jiazong said: "Eldest brother asked me not to tell my third uncle about Jia Xin's call back, saying that my third uncle would be sad if he knew about it."
Sister-in-law Lu snorted coldly and said, "Tell him when you go to deliver food tomorrow and see if he will be too sad to eat."
"It's better not to give it up. Third uncle is already pitiful enough."
When Ersao Lu heard this, she cursed: "He's pitiful? What's so pitiful about him? He has three nephews who take turns taking care of him when he's sick. It's really pitiful to say that Jia Xin is pitiful. He goes to Hong Kong City alone, where he has no life. I’m familiar with it. I don’t know who to turn to when I’m being bullied.”
"Lu Jiazong, you can't be a man without conscience. Without Jiaxin's support, our husband and wife would still be farming in the countryside. How could we make twenty or thirty yuan a day? Let me tell you, if Jiaxin calls you, you dare to mention these troublesome things. If you cause trouble for her, go home and replace Ah Shan."
Lu Jiazong said hurriedly: "I didn't tell Jia Xin that my third uncle was hospitalized."
Second Sister-in-law Lu snorted coldly: "Eldest brother and Jia Jie are both under his care, so they should take turns taking care of him. We don't get any benefit from him. It's also for Jia Xin's sake, otherwise I wouldn't allow you to go."
At this point, she scolded Lu Hongjun again: "I only care about my own romantic life and let that poisonous woman rub Jiaxin. If I die in the future and no one will collect my body, I will deserve it."
"By the way, why don't you take care of the little goblin? Third uncle has raised her for so many years, and now she is hiding when she is sick. There is no such reason."
Speaking of this, Lu Jiazong said depressedly: "Jiajie went to find her, and she said that she was not her biological daughter and it was inconvenient to take care of her."
Second Sister Lu cursed again: "Bullshit. It's not like she is lying in bed and can't move to wash her body. It's just gastric bleeding. She only needs to serve tea and water and watch the injection. Can't let her go. I will find her tomorrow and let her take care of it."
"She won't go."
Second Sister Lu was so angry that she wanted to marry such a blockhead: "It doesn't matter if she doesn't go, but Uncle San and others must know what kind of person she is."
Back then, he was blinded by his greed and treated his stepdaughter better than his biological daughter. The biological daughter was heartbroken and went to Gangcheng to seek refuge with relatives. The stepdaughter didn't even go to the hospital to see him. Now she is suffering retribution. She deserves it.
Lu Jiazong whispered, "Uncle San regretted it. He kept talking about Jiaxin to us and wanted to call her."
"Bah. Now that the evil woman is in jail and the little witch doesn't care about him, he remembered Jiaxin's kindness. It's a pity that it's too late. Jiaxin won't come back. Let him regret it for the rest of his life!"
Lu Jiazong sighed heavily again. He didn't know what Uncle San was thinking. How could other people's children be as good as his own? He didn't distinguish between relatives and strangers. Now he couldn't see his child even if he wanted to.
