Chapter 051: Sister-in-law is better than he imagined

Gu Xiaoxi saw someone and immediately ran over. "Did you see the note I left? Have you had dinner?"

Lu Jianlin said helplessly: "I see, you said you wouldn't go back to the hospital at noon, I'm waiting for you to have dinner!"

Gu Xiaoxi smiled apologetically, "I wanted to go out this morning, but Dean Chen asked me to watch his surgery, so it was too late to go out."

Lu Jianlin also heard about this, so he asked, "Are you planning to study medicine in the future?"

"We'll talk about it later! Dean Chen said your brother has been hurt a lot and asked me to learn more. I think that makes sense."

When Lu Jianlin heard this, his heart suddenly softened.

The younger sister-in-law studied medicine, just for her elder brother?

For some reason, he suddenly felt a little jealous of his elder brother!

The sister-in-law is better than he thought!

"Sister-in-law, let me take you to my dormitory! It's a single room, perfect for you to live alone. I'll stay in the hospital lounge at night."

Gu Xiaoxi didn't hesitate and followed him to his dormitory.

The dormitory was not far away, just on a street behind the hospital, a two-story building. His dormitory was the room on the far right of the second floor.

The dormitory was not big, with only a neatly made bed, a desk, a small closet, a new basin and a washbasin stand.

Maybe it was because Lu Jianlin had just arrived, there were almost no personal belongings of his in the dormitory, only a pile of packages.

Lu Jianlin pointed to the five packages on the ground on the left and said, "These are from my grandparents, and my parents asked me to bring them to you and my brother. Take your time to unpack them. There is a small mahogany box inside, and the things inside are given to you by your grandma. The other thing is this large military green backpack, and the things inside are all given to you by my mom."

Gu Xiaoxi was shocked, "So many?"

Lu Jianlin smiled and handed her two bulging envelopes. "The one with the tickets is my wedding gift to you and your elder brother. The ones below are what my second brother asked me to bring to you and your elder brother."

"Thank you!" Gu Xiaoxi thanked sincerely.

So many gifts, with sincerity and respect, made her feel warm inside.

"We're a family, so there's no need to be so polite. You can take your time unpacking the rest of the stuff, I'm going back to the hospital. I'll bring you breakfast tomorrow morning."

Gu Xiaoxi wanted to say no, but swallowed the words back and said, "Okay. Then you can eat in the hospital cafeteria at noon, and I'll make you something delicious in the evening."

She still plans to go out during the day tomorrow, but she can come back early in the evening.

"Okay!" Lu Jianlin nodded with a smile.

After seeing Lu Jianlin off, Gu Xiaoxi opened the packages one by one.

You know what, the Lu family sent a lot of things, including food, clothing, and daily necessities.

The clothes she wore were almost all women's, and it was obvious that they were bought for her.

When she opened the small mahogany box that Lu Jianlin mentioned and saw what was inside, she was stunned.

Because, in addition to an imperial green bracelet, a ginseng about fifty years old, there was also a passbook.

There was quite a bit of money in the passbook, about two thousand yuan in total.

In the bag that Lu Jiansen's mother prepared, in addition to the clothes she bought for her, there were also some ointments, soaps, vanishing creams, and scented teas that girls like.

There were even two packs of sanitary napkins imported from abroad.

And under the sanitary napkin, there was actually a passbook with a balance of one thousand and some additional tickets.

The envelope Lu Jianlin gave her contained four hundred yuan and a bunch of various bills.

There was also 400 yuan and some tickets in Lu Jianye's envelope.

Gu Xiaoxi was quite moved. She exchanged all her important things for new ones, put them in the new product showroom, then closed the door and went out again with a flashlight.

She worked as a sanitation worker and cleaned up a large garbage pit not far from the back door of the hospital.

As expected, she got 2 merit points and 2 rolls of toilet paper.

At this point, she realized that cleaning up city garbage was just like cleaning out trash cans on trains, and there was a reward of toilet paper.

Thinking of this, she walked to the state-owned hotel again.

During the day, she saw a very dirty garbage pit there, with sewage flowing everywhere during rainy days.

It was easier to get things done at night, and she didn't have to worry too much about being seen, so she cleaned the garbage pit smoothly and earned 2 merit points and 2 rolls of toilet paper.

She looked at her watch and found that it was already 10 o'clock in the evening, so she gave up her greed and went back to bed.

The next morning, Lu Jianlin bought breakfast and came over at 7 o'clock.

However, since he had already started working, he put down his breakfast, said a few words and left again.

After having breakfast alone, Gu Xiaoxi made an unexpected decision.

She bought a ticket for the nearest train and went to the neighboring city of Daxing.

Although it was only one stop and would take two hours to get there, she walked around every carriage on the train, looking for opportunities to collect 5 trash cans and earned 5 merit points.

After getting off the car, she was so happy that she almost collapsed!

She only needs 20 merit points left, and then she will have 100 merit points!

Daxing City is not as prosperous as Qingbei City, but it has one good thing, which is that it has a coal factory.

After asking someone, Gu Xiaoxi went straight to the coal factory's compound carrying a cloth bag.

She didn't know anyone, but she saw a friendly-looking lady, quietly pulled her aside, and told her that she wanted to exchange cotton for some coal briquettes tickets.

As she spoke, she grabbed a handful of soft cotton and showed it to the old lady.

Cotton has always been a hot commodity. The old lady was short of everything except coal briquette tickets, so she happily exchanged them.

After the change, the lady asked enthusiastically: "My dear, if you want to buy coal briquettes, I can help you. Not only coal briquettes, but also coal stoves are available."

Gu Xiaoxi's eyes lit up after hearing this. "That's fine! I'll trade it with you for cotton or cloth."

The old lady was delighted when she heard this. "Okay! I'll move the coal briquettes and the stove to the back door behind the broken wall in half an hour. You wait for me there."

"Okay." Gu Xiaoxi nodded in agreement.

"By the way, young lady, how many stoves do you want?"

Gu Xiaoxi thought for a moment and said, "I can give you fifty kilograms of cotton and two rolls of cloth. It's up to you to decide."

"Okay!" The old lady left happily.

Half an hour later, the old lady and another woman came out with two carts of coal, and there were two coal stoves in the backpacks behind them.

After seeing that the cotton and cloth prepared by Gu Xiaoxi were correct, the old lady finally gave her two coal briquette tickets.

After completing the transaction, the old lady and the woman left quickly, saying that the cart would come to pick it up later.

Gu Xiaoxi was also happy with this, and while there was no one around, he put all his things into the second-hand grocery store and left.

Afterwards, she went to the supply and marketing cooperative in Daxing City and bought an iron pot, two clay pots, two enamel basins, two water bottles, two lunch boxes, four bowls, a pair of chopsticks, and a kitchen knife.

Considering the principle of proximity, she also went to buy some rice, flour, oil, grain and seasonings. She only bought half a pound of pork belly, some vegetables, and a small basket of eggs.

After shopping until two o'clock in the afternoon, she went to the train station and took the train back to Qingbei City.

On the train, she still took the opportunity to collect the trash cans and earned three merit points.

When we returned to Lu Jianlin's dormitory, it was already half past five.

She first found an exquisite small square table from the new product showroom, then took out the things she bought today and placed them on the table.

She only took out one coal stove and put only fifty coal briquettes in it.

Afterwards, she fetched water, washed a clay pot, lit a fire, and cooked rice.

In order to make the rice delicious, she used temperature control techniques to precisely control the temperature.

After the meal was ready, she quickly cut a piece of thick wood from the new product showroom to use as a chopping board and cut the washed meat.

When Lu Jianlin came over, the pork belly was just being taken out of the pot with a sizzling sound.

When the aroma of meat came, his steps slowed down.
