Chapter 12 Moving

 After leaving the door, Lu Jiajie said: "Brother, Xinxin has changed a lot."

Lu Jiaguang hummed and said, "Not only has Xinxin become more thoughtful now, but she also knows how to speak out when she is wronged. From now on, the mother and daughter will never bully her again."

 He felt that he had changed for the better and that all this suffering was not in vain.

While Lu Jiaxin and Xue Mao were cleaning the house, someone knocked on the door. When they opened the door, they saw it was an aunt. It turned out that the other person had come over after hearing the noise.

Auntie said: "My surname is Li, and I am from the neighborhood committee. Girl, does this house belong to you?"

After looking at the other party's work permit, Lu Jiaxin said: "This house was left to me by my mother. Before, when I was young, I didn't dare to come here because I was afraid that my stepmother would take it away if she knew about it. Now I can't survive under my stepmother's hands, so I have to move." Come here.”

 She has no idea that the scandal of her family should not be made public. Moreover, these aunts are well-informed. Even if they don't tell them, they will be able to uncover her details in a few days.

Auntie saw many such things in the neighborhood committee. She reminded: "Daughter, please transfer your household registration quickly, so that your stepmother can't use the marriage to interfere with you."

Lu Jiaxin felt that her aunt was really warm-hearted. After thanking her, she said, "When I get settled, I will transfer my household registration."

Aunt Li looked at Xue Mao and asked, "Will you two siblings live here from now on?"

Lu Jiaxin explained Xue Mao's identity: "Auntie, I have recognized him as my godbrother, and he will live here with me from now on."

Aunt Li registered the information of the two people and said with a smile: "You and I are only two rooms apart. If you have anything in the future, you can come to me at any time."

Lu Jiaxin thanked him, sent the person away, and continued to do hygiene with Xue Mao.

 After working for more than an hour, both of us were hungry. There were no pots and pans in the kitchen, so we had to go out to eat. There are many small restaurants now opened in Sijiucheng, and the two of them quickly found one.

 Lu Jiaxin ordered braised fish, water spinach in oil, and tomato and egg drop soup. She didn't eat much, but Xue Mao had a big appetite. He ate three bowls of rice and ate all the vegetables before he was full.

 Walking out of the small restaurant, Xue Mao said: "The food in this restaurant is too expensive and not worth it. Sister, let's cook for ourselves tonight!"

“I’ll start the fire after I buy the pots and pans tomorrow.”

 Cleaning up is the most tiring thing. After cleaning the east and west rooms, Lu Jiaxin slumped down on a chair and said, "Let's just clean the kitchen again. We'll do the three rooms in the back room when we have time."

Xue Mao doesn't feel tired at all. This is my sister's own house. He can live in it until my sister gets married: "Sister, you can go back to the house and rest, and I will take care of it."

 The master bedroom has a bed, wardrobe, dressing table, table and chairs, and is fully furnished. Later, the set of furniture in her room will be moved over for Xue Mao to use, so that there is no need to add additional furniture.

Lu Jiaxin knew that he would feel uncomfortable if he was not allowed to work, so she nodded and said, "I'm going to bed first. If you feel tired, just rest. This is our own house, so there's no need to worry about it."

Her body has not fully recovered yet, and she feels tired even after doing a little work. She felt that it was because she didn't take good care of her body and she needed to find a doctor to take care of it.

There were no beddings in the room, but fortunately she brought a few sets of old clothes with her. I wanted to throw them away at the time but Xue Mao said to keep them as rags. Now these old clothes come in handy.

 Sit on the train for three days in a row. Nowadays, all trains are green trains. Not only are they noisy but the environment is also very bad, and the hard seats they bought make it impossible to have a good rest. After getting off the train and going straight to the family home, Lu Jiaxin was nervous because she was afraid that she would be found to be not her original self. This will make you relax and fall asleep when you lie down. It was more than three hours after she woke up. Lu Jiaxin walked out and found the yard quiet: "Xue Mao, hasn't my fifth brother come here yet?"

Xue Mao stopped what he was doing, wiped his sweat and said, "No. Brother is going to borrow a car, but he may not be able to borrow one!"

Lu Jiaxin was worried that since her things were not moved here today, she would have to sleep on a wooden bed, while Xue Mao didn't even sleep on a wooden bed. After only taking a nap, she felt sore in her waist and back, and she was afraid she wouldn't be able to get up after sleeping all night.

Xue Mao talked about a problem he discovered: "Sister, there is no toilet here. I just couldn't find a place to pee urgently, so I had to go outside to solve it."

Afraid that Lu Jiaxin would misunderstand, he added: "There is a public toilet outside, but it is too dirty. You must not be used to it."

Lu Jiaxin really didn't pay attention to this matter. She said, "Then we have to buy two alms bowls, otherwise it will be too troublesome to go to the toilet outside at night."

Xue Mao has lived with her for more than a month and knows that she loves cleanliness: "Sister, we can't keep doing this. Let's set up a stall early and hire someone to build a toilet when we make money."

Excluding the fare and road expenses, they still have more than two hundred yuan on hand, which is enough to buy a stall. As for Lu Jiaxin's money, he had never thought about it.

The two were talking when Lu Jiajie's loud voice sounded outside: "Xinxin, Xue Mao, please open the door. I want to move things in."

Xue Mao was so tired that he fell asleep on the bed one time and forgot to lock the door. As a result, the pot he had finally bought and half the bag of grain he bought disappeared. From then on, he developed the habit of rebelling against others at home.

Lu Jiajie came in carrying the bed board. Seeing Lu Jiaxin about to go out, he stopped her: "Xinxin, you haven't recovered enough to take good care of yourself yet. There aren't many things. I and my two brothers will just run two or three times and it will be fine." "

Lu Jiaxin's body is indeed weak now, so she doesn't show off her strength.

Xue Mao quickly came in with two wooden buckets, which contained pots, pans, knives and other kitchen utensils. He said happily: "Sister, we can cook by ourselves after we buy rice and noodles tomorrow."

Lu Jiaxin was a little surprised. When Lu Jiajie came in with the quilt, she asked, "Fifth brother, did you buy these things?"

Lu Jiajie said with a smile: "No, my third uncle got it from the department store. These are defective products and are very cost-effective."

Lu Jiaxin just looked at the contents of the bucket. Although she didn't look very carefully, she was sure that they were all new. However, she is not a novice. She has been in the workplace for many years and knows everything she needs to know.

What surprised her was that in addition to the kitchen items, there were also two sets of summer quilts, hot water bottles, kettles, cups, toothbrushes, towels and other daily necessities.

Lu Jiajie smiled and said, "Xinxin, my third uncle bought these things for you."

 “Is he so good?”

Lu Jiajie said with a smile: "Even if my eldest brother and I want to buy it for you, we don't have so much money on hand. Xinxin, that woman knows how to act, and the third uncle will inevitably be deceived by her. But you are his only daughter, and his money I will definitely leave it and the property to you in the future.”

His and his eldest brother’s wages had to be handed over after they had been paid. At most, they only had one or two yuan left on hand. These things totaled hundreds of dollars, and he and his eldest brother couldn't even get it together by selling their blood.
