Chapter 012 I won't let Xiaoxi suffer any injustice

Because she was in a bad mood, she saw Gu Xinli eating melon seeds as soon as she got home. She was so angry that she started cursing.

"You silly girl, you only know how to eat and don't know how to please your grandpa. All the good ones are kept for your uncle..."

Gu Xinli was scolded and felt depressed.

To stop her mother from talking, she brought out two large buckets of fish from the kitchen.

"Mom, just look at how good you feel. Once we sell these fish, we'll have money, right?"

When Liu Chunhua saw the dozen or so big fish in the bucket, she stopped scolding and said with a smile, "Okay, Mom will go ask who wants the fish right away."

Gu Xinli was silent for a while before she said, "Mom, go ask Second Aunt if she wants some. I remember Gu Xiaoxi likes to eat fish."

Under normal circumstances, she would not want to earn money from Xiaoxi, but now she is about to go to the countryside and has many places to spend money.

Private business is not allowed now, and she couldn't find someone to buy fish from for a while.

Liu Chunhua thought about it and decided to ask Jiang Xiuqing, so she carried a bucket of fish over.

Jiang Xiuqing was tempted when she saw the fish, but to be on the safe side, she still asked first.

"How much is this fish? I won't buy it if it's too expensive."

Liu Chunhua laughed, "We are all family, how can they be expensive? One fish weighs at least three or four kilograms, and a large one weighs five or six kilograms. Give me two dollars and fifty cents for one! You can pick whatever you want!"

Gu Xiaoxi came out to pour water and happened to see the fish in the bucket. She glanced at them and said calmly, "Two yuan a piece, buy them all."

Liu Chunhua hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded in agreement, "Okay. There are six in total, and you give me twelve dollars."

When Jiang Xiuqing was about to go back to the house to get the money, Gu Xiaoxi had already taken out money from his pocket and paid her.

Liu Chunhua counted the money and asked casually, "I have a bucket of fish at home, about seven or eight fish, do you want more? If you do, I'll send it over to you."

Jiang Xiuqing was about to refuse, but Gu Xiaoxi said first, "Give them all over!"

"Okay!" Liu Chunhua was delighted and immediately went back to get the fish.

Jiang Xiuqing saw her daughter buying so many fish and said in confusion, "Xiaoxi, you bought too many fish. We can't eat them all at home."

"It's okay, you can keep it and eat it slowly. Mom, help me make some fried fish, we can take it with us on the road."

Jiang Xiuqing pursed her lips and smiled, "I was just thinking of making some fried fish for you guys! Now it seems that I can also make some fish balls."

As she spoke, she was already busy in the kitchen.

Gu Xiaoxi had nothing to do, so he secretly did an experiment. He threw a fish bone that his mother had picked out into the second-hand grocery store.

Then she saw that the fishbone disappeared and nothing was added to the new product showroom.

It was obvious that the fish bone was removed as garbage!

Then she opened another can, ate half of it, and threw it back into the junkyard.

At this time, she found an unopened can in the new product showroom.

The difference is that the can is much smaller than the previous one, just like a large can has become a small can.

It's quite magical!

Later, she discovered that the new product showroom could not be used to store items from the outside, but if she went through the used goods warehouse, she could naturally use the new product showroom as a portable storage space.

Thinking of this, she began to wonder what else she could find at home to exchange for new ones.

Gu Yimin saw his daughter walking around, not knowing what she was looking for, so he said, "Xiaoxi, go back to your room and pack up. Put together the things you need to bring tomorrow."

"Oh!" Gu Xiaoxi responded and turned back to his room.

She packed up the clothes very quickly. She folded and rolled them up, took out the large wicker bag that her grandmother had left for her from under the bed, put it in the junk storage to replace it, and then put the clothes neatly into the new wicker bag.

After filling a wicker bag, she took out a large military backpack left by her brother and sorted out the things she was going to take. Some of the things she couldn't take were transferred from the used goods warehouse to the new product showroom for storage.

After packing up, Lu Jiansen, who had gone out to make a phone call, came back.

Seeing his little girl packing her luggage, a warm look flashed in his eyes. After closing the door, he explained softly.

"I just asked our leader, and he said that the house we were assigned is a smaller old yard. If you don't like it, we can change it later."

Gu Xiaoxi nodded, "Then we'll talk about it when the time comes!"

"The tickets have been bought. The show is at 7:40 tomorrow morning. Go to bed early tonight. I'll go help my parents with some chores and talk to them."

Seeing how diligent he was, Gu Xiaoxi suppressed her laughter and nodded, "Then go ahead!"

If he wants to be a good son-in-law, of course she has to cooperate.

Looking at the lively little girl, Lu Jiansen couldn't help but rub her head with his hand, "Go to sleep!"

Gu Xiaoxi blushed slightly and nodded gently, "I know, you should go to bed early too."

The little girl's sweet voice was like a little hook, causing Lu Jiansen's breathing to become disordered for a moment.

He inexplicably thought of that night when the little girl was crying out in pain under him, saying that she was tired and wanted to sleep.

To clear his mind, he quickly closed the door and went out.

The moment the door closed, Gu Xiaoxi breathed a sigh of relief.

In fact, she was a little nervous when they were alone in a room.

She lay in bed for a while, but finally, she couldn't resist the fatigue of the past two days and fell asleep quickly.

Lu Jiansen was in the kitchen helping his mother-in-law cook and chatting.

Gu Yimin also helped out and talked about his daughter's childhood.

The atmosphere among the three of them was great!

That night, Gu Xiaoxi slept alone.

…

The next day.

Gu Xiaoxi got up very early. Hearing her parents busy in the kitchen, she quietly stuffed a package into the quilt on her parents' bed.

The package contained four new sets of clothes, some new cloth, one thousand yuan in cash, and a note.

If she gave it directly to her parents, they would definitely not want it. She could only wait for them to find it themselves later.

For breakfast, the whole family had dumplings filled with meat.

Jiang Xiuqing couldn't help nagging because her daughter was going on a long trip.

"Xiaoxi, take good care of yourself when you get to the army. If Jiansen is on a mission, go find your brother if you have any problems. If he's not there, call him back..."

"When you get there, buy whatever you need. If you can't find anything, write back and we'll buy it for you and send it to you..."

"Build good relationships with other military wives over there. If anyone bullies you, tell your brother and Jiansen. We can't be afraid of them..."

Gu Xiaoxi listened carefully, feeling amused and touched. "Don't worry, Mom! I will take good care of myself!"

Jiang Xiuqing nodded and said, "If I can take a leave at the end of the year, I will come back to celebrate the New Year."

Gu Yimin couldn't help but cough when he heard his wife's words, "If they have a holiday, they have to go back to Jiansen's house first."

Lu Jiansen immediately said, "If you can arrange a family visit leave, Xiaoxi and I will come back to pick you up first, and then we will go back to Kyoto together."

Jiang Xiuqing heard Lu Jiansen's arrangement and nodded with a smile, "That's fine."

Her daughter just got married, and she was really worried!

Gu Xiaoxi thought for a moment and said softly, "Dad, Mom, I will write you a letter every month from now on. Don't worry too much about me. Take good care of yourselves. Also, after grandpa is discharged from the hospital, you must let him live in our house. It's too unsafe for him to live alone."

Jiang Xiuqing nodded, "I understand."

Gu Yimin cleared his throat and couldn't help but remind her: "Xiaoxi, now that you have a family, you have to learn to take care of Jiansen in the future and not be too willful. You also have to exercise more, but you must eat well and sleep well. If you feel unwell, you must see a doctor in time."

Gu Xiaoxi glanced at Lu Jiansen, smiled and nodded, "Got it."

Lu Jiansen knew how worried his parents-in-law were, so he assured them again, "Mom and Dad, don't worry, I won't let Xiaoxi suffer any injustice!"
