Chapter 253 Heard some gossip

Lu Guojiu also smiled and said, "Yes, this is all thanks to our Xiaoxia, otherwise how could we both go out to make money? Not to mention making money, the main thing is that the feeling is different. I didn't like going out before, but now when I go out, I also like to talk to people."

Lu Jingyuan, who was reading on the kang, said to Lu Guojiu, "Dad, you're doing that because you have face when you go out."

Lu Guojiu glared at Lu Jingyuan and said, "Will you die if I don't speak?"

Lu Jingyuan quickly shut up and was scolded as soon as he spoke.

Lin Xiaoxia looked at Lu Guojiu and smiled: "Dad, this is normal. When people have money, they stand up straight and have the confidence to do anything. But it's different. Otherwise, why do officials have to have official authority and bosses have aura?"

Lu Guojiu agreed and said, "Yes, yes, that's right. Xiaoxia really knows more."

Li Shaofen said, "For lunch, we'll have pork ribs stewed with pickled cabbage. Xiaoxia loves it. This pickled cabbage won't last for a few days. It won't keep well in the hot weather. Let's have a few more meals."

Lin Xiaoxia said, "Then I'll accompany Mom to the street to buy some spare ribs."

Li Shaofen naturally had no objection: "Okay, it's a good opportunity for us to talk."

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law went out immediately.

Lu Guojiu watched the two of them leave and said to Lu Jingshen, "Your daughter-in-law is really good. The relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in other people's families is always complicated. In our family, she is like a real daughter. There is no need for any distance."

Lu Jingshen said, "We are both honest with each other and treat each other sincerely, so naturally there will be no conflicts."

Lu Guojiu said: "That's right. Your father-in-law is such a high-ranking official, but he is not arrogant at all and speaks to me so casually."

Lu Jingyuan couldn't help but said, "Dad, big brother, I think it's because my sister-in-law and my brother can both earn money. If we have money, there will be fewer problems at home. If we don't have money, we will worry about money all day long, and there will be more conflicts."

This time, Lu Guojiu didn't scold Lu Jingyuan: "That's true. When you have money, you have fewer problems. When we didn't have money before, your mother and I would quarrel over a few dollars."

Lu Jingshen smiled: "Xiaoxia is the lucky star of our family."

Over there, Lin Xiaoxia and Li Shaofen were talking as they walked, talking about family matters. In winter, they used to make snacks every three or four days, but now that it was getting warmer, they would have to make them every other day after a while.

While waiting for the construction of the house to begin, Lu Guojiu was in charge of the house-related matters, while Li Shaofen and Lu Lin and their wife also took care of the snacks.

Lin Xiaoxia told Li Shaofen not to save money, and to hire more people if she was too busy, because she wanted to make a lot of money in the future.

Li Shaofen supported Lin Xiaoxia in everything and quickly agreed.

The two of them went to a meat stall on the street and bought a few ribs. There happened to be a stall selling river shrimps next to the stall, so they bought some more.

After buying these, I went to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some seasonings.

As soon as they arrived at the door of the supply and marketing cooperative, before they went in, they heard someone calling them.

The two stopped and looked back to see Feng Ying. The supply and marketing cooperative and the hospital were diagonally opposite each other, so it was not surprising to see Feng Ying there.

Feng Ying had already arrived in front of them: "Auntie, Xiaoxia, are you here to buy something?"

Li Shaofen smiled and said, "Well, isn't it Xiaoxia and the others who are back, buy some delicious food."

Feng Ying said, "Auntie is so kind to her daughter-in-law. I'm really envious of her."

Li Shaofen was very good at speaking and said, "Xiaoxia is also very good to me. She always thinks of me."

Feng Ying smiled and said, "You all know how to behave and do things. I have to learn from you in the future." Then she walked forward and whispered to the two of them, "Zhang Tingting is in trouble."

Lin Xiaoxia whispered, "Let's talk further away."

Li Shaofen also nodded, and the three of them stopped at a sunny and deserted place not far away.

Feng Ying said, "The night before yesterday, Lu Jingxue brought Zhang Tingting here. He said she fell, but from what I saw, it seems they had a fight. Both of them had external injuries. They almost lost the baby, so they're trying to protect it."

Li Shaofen said in disbelief, "This Jingxue is really troublesome. His mother is in such a state, but he doesn't take care of her. He even goes home and fights with his pregnant wife. This is too bad."

Feng Ying said, "It's mainly because both of them were quite aggressive. Lu Jingxue's face is scratched and his hands are covered in teeth marks. Zhang Tingting's arms are bruised and the corners of her mouth are swollen. They were beaten pretty hard."

Lin Xiaoxia shook her head. "What kind of people are these? They don't care about themselves or the baby in their belly. Even if they were parents, they couldn't be good parents. This child has a miserable life."

Feng Ying continued, "That's not the worst. The worst thing is that Lu Jingxue secretly came to me and asked me if Zhang Tingting was pregnant with a boy or a girl. How could I possibly tell him that? He thought I was asking him for money, so he gave me a red envelope of ten yuan and told me to return it. I guess they can go to the city for an ultrasound later."

Li Shaofen frowned: "This child is really unlucky to be born into this family. I don't know if he can even be born."

Lin Xiaoxia has been particularly fond of children recently, so when she heard Feng Ying say this, she really felt sorry for Zhang Tingting's child, thinking that when she has children in the future, both boys and girls will be spoiled like treasures.

Feng Ying couldn't help but sigh, "Many people in rural areas favor boys over girls, so there are many cases of aborting girls for boys. But I always thought Lu Jingxue was quite knowledgeable, I didn't expect this."

Lin Xiaoxia said, "I didn't expect this either, but I guarantee that this couple will not have peace in the future. Jiang Lirong hasn't come back yet. With another disabled mother-in-law, this family will be very busy."

Feng Ying calculated, "Jiang Lirong will be back for at least two or three months. By then, if Zhang Tingting survives the pregnancy, she'll be five or six months old. If these two are together, there will be a lot of trouble."

Li Shaofen said, "This person is truly down-to-earth and honest. What a wonderful family they were originally. Now that they've become like this, I don't know whether to call them what they deserved or just pitiful."

Lin Xiaoxia smiled: "Mom, you are a bystander and you are kind-hearted. Do you think that my aunt will think it is retribution? I think the one who will have the hardest time in their family in the future is my uncle. Anyway, you and Dad should stay out of their family affairs and stay out of it."

Li Shaofen nodded: "I understand, don't worry, your father and I will not be good people indiscriminately and burden you and Jingshen."

Feng Ying looked at them and smiled, "See? This is the difference between your family and Lu Jingxue's. Your family all hopes for the best for the other person, but their family only hopes for the best for themselves. Is that okay?"

Lin Xiaoxia also smiled and said, "You and your cousin will be happy in the future. Your cousin is a person with a very correct sense of right and wrong."

Feng Ying said, "Indeed, but he's a bit stubborn."

Lin Xiaoxia said: "It's not good to be stubborn. I'm devoted to you and save you from worrying."

"Everything sounds good to you." Feng Ying laughed and then said, "If you don't go back to the city today, your cousin and I will treat you to dinner tonight."

Lin Xiaoxia sighed and said, "I'm not going to eat this time. I have some things to deal with at home, so I'm not in the mood. Once things are settled, I'll invite you to my restaurant in the city for a good meal."
