Chapter 17 Bingdi Lotus Jade Pendant

Lu Jiaxin and Xue Mao were pulling weeds in the yard when someone knocked on the door outside. When I opened the door, I saw it was Liao Xiangmei.

After welcoming the person into the house, Lu Jiaxin poured a glass of water for her: "We just moved in and there was nothing. I hope Aunt Liao won't blame her for not greeting her well."

Liao Xiangmei was a little sad when she heard this. The stupid things her stupid son had done caused the child to become acquainted with her: "You have nothing here, so your dad didn't say anything?"

Lu Jiaxin would not speak up for him: "He said that he had given me all the money and could not afford to buy me any more furniture. After some hard talk, he finally agreed to buy me a watch and a tape recorder for learning English."

"I'm going to buy furniture at the second-hand market. But I'm not familiar with it. I'm going to wait until Sunday for my fifth brother to take me there, so that those people won't see Xue Mao and I slaughtering us like fat sheep."

Liao Xiangmei thought for a moment and then said: "Xinxin, these words are just to coax you. He has worked in department stores for so many years, and his savings cannot be only a few thousand yuan. If you need anything, ask him for it. If you don't give it, you will have to pay for it." Just as noisy."

"Xinxin, don't feel embarrassed. He is your father, and it is natural to ask for things from him. If you don't want them, you will end up taking advantage of the snake and scorpion mother and daughter."

The Lu family said somewhat helplessly: "I don't understand the reason, but he said there is no money, and there is nothing I can do."

 In the hearts of Chinese people, you should be grateful to your parents for giving birth to you and raising you, and serve them filially when they grow old. If you say something bad about your parents outside, then you are an unfilial son and a white-eyed wolf. It's okay to complain about Lu Hongjun, but you can't accuse him, let alone scold him.

Liao Xiangmei said angrily: "How can you be a father like this if your daughter is kicked out and you don't care about her? I'll go find your dad later and ask him to help you put everything in order."

 Lu Jiaxin couldn’t wait to do it. If Lu Hongjun could buy all the things she had here, she would be able to save a lot of money. If you are poor now, every penny you can save is worth it.

Liao Xiangmei took out a palm-sized wooden box from her purse, handed it to Lu Jiaxin and said, "This is the token your mother gave you. Keep it."

Lu Jiaxin took it and opened it. Inside was a lotus jade pendant. She saw that the jade pendant was warm and delicate, white in color and soft in luster.

Thinking that she asked Xue Mao to exchange for an eighty-yuan jade pendant, Lu Jiaxin asked: "Aunt Liao, my mother likes jade very much. Does she have any collection of jade ornaments?"

I have never seen Mother Lu wearing jade jewelry, but Lu Jiaxin feels that Mother Lu must have collected many top-quality jade jewelry. When you really like something and you have the opportunity to own it, you won't be able to control it even if you know it's dangerous.

Liao Xiangmei nodded and said: "Your mother accidentally got a few things two years before you were born. She really liked it and took the risk to keep it. Later, when she had you, she even told me that she would give it to you as a dowry in the future."

"Which ones are they? Aunt Liao, do you still remember them?"

Liao Xiangmei thought for a moment and said: "In addition to this lotus and the jade pendant you are wearing, there is also a bracelet and a Hetian jade hairpin. I don't know if I bought more later."

 The situation was very tense in the past few years, and Lu Jiaxin was young, so this matter was never mentioned. Now that the policy has been relaxed, Lu Jiaxin has become more independent and is no longer afraid of being known.

She knew about the two jade pendants. One was sold and the other was now in her hands, but she knew nothing about the bracelets and hairpins. I don’t know whether these things are in Lu Hongjun’s hands or entrusted to others.

 Liao Xiangmei asked with concern which school Lu Jiaxin planned to go to to repeat her studies. This year was delayed. With Jiaxin’s results, she felt that she would definitely be able to pass the exam next year.

Lu Jiaxin shook her head and said, "I went to the hospital for a full-body checkup this morning. The doctor said that my current body cannot withstand such intense study, so I won't resume studying for the time being."

Liao Xiangmei saw her pale face yesterday and knew that she was very weak. This time she came over to bring milk powder, honey and other things to replenish the body: "This is right, the body is the most important. If the body collapses, there will be nothing." .”

Like Xiaoxia, who risked her own life to save other people’s children, but ended up taking advantage of other women and suffering for her own daughter.

 Lu Jiaxin said that this was her plan. After talking for a while, Liao Xiangmei was about to go back. Before leaving, she said, "Xinxin, call me if you have anything to do next."

Lu Jiaxin declined politely: "Aunt Liao, you don't have to worry about me. After so many things, I can take care of myself now."

Liao Xiangmei felt sad. This child had repeatedly rejected her kindness, and it seemed that he was really related to her. She originally wanted Fan Yinuo to come and apologize to Lu Jiaxin, so that the relationship might be eased, but she didn't want this brat to never come back, and left a note saying he was going to stay at a friend's house for a few days.

 Not only herself, but also Lao Fan was very angry. He didn't even have the guts to apologize for making such a big mistake. If you have no sense of responsibility and responsibility, what will you accomplish in the future?

Lu Jiaxin sent people to the entrance of the alley: "Aunt Liao, fifth brother said that we need to set up two tables to liven up the new house. I will tell you when the date is determined."

A smile appeared on Liao Xiangmei's face: "I will definitely come for such a big thing as a greenhouse."

 After sending the person away, Lu Jiaxin continued to pull weeds with Xue Mao.

“Xinxin, Xue Mao, come out quickly and help get things.”

The two people walked out and saw Lu Jiajie and his wife Ma Lili, with a brand new tricycle next to them.

 Ma Lili has fair skin and good-looking features. She works in a department store. Lu Jiajie was able to catch up with her in the first place because of her uncle, Lu Hongjun, who was the general manager, and because the Ma family had no son and wanted to recruit him as their son-in-law. However, Uncle Lu and Aunt Lu disagreed, and after negotiation, the second son born between them was named Ma. It's a pity that the second child was a girl, and family planning started not long after the girl was born, and the original agreement became a piece of waste paper.

Lu Jiaxin wrote with a smile on her face: "Fifth sister-in-law, why are you here?"

Ma Lili held her hands, looked at them carefully and said, "She's darker, thinner, and her complexion is not good. She needs to take good care of herself."

Lu Jiaxin nodded in agreement, and then welcomed the couple in.

After entering the yard, Lu Jiajie pulled out a watch and a tape recorder from the pile of things in the tricycle. He said, "Xinxin, the third uncle said that he will buy the remaining things for you slowly."

Lu Jiaxin took the watch and looked at it. It was a Plum Blossom brand, which was one of the best in the country. She put the watch on her wrist, looked at the rice, flour, oil and other things in the tricycle and asked, "Who bought these things?"

Lu Jiajie said with a smile: "Of course your dad bought it. Also, your dad promised to give 36 yuan a month for living expenses."

Lu Jiaxin was surprised: "How could he agree?"

Lu Jiajie said with a smile: "I proposed it, but I didn't agree after talking for a long time. It was only after my eldest brother called him that he agreed."

 The eldest brother takes action, one can stand up to the other two.

"Fifth brother, thank you." Although she couldn't get the money for a long time, she was still very touched by the kindness.

 “I get angry if you say this again.”

Lu Jiaxin smiled and said, "This is the last time. I won't be polite to you anymore."

 “That’s right.”
