Chapter 220 Asking for Help
The eldest sister seemed to see what Lu Xiang was thinking and immediately asked, "What's wrong? Do you want to talk to me about something?"
Seeing her ask, Lu Xiang immediately said, "I'm a little busy, and I want you to come over and help me! But if you go over to help me, what will happen to the mess at home?"
When the eldest sister heard this, she immediately said, "I'm not needed at home. I can just tell my parents."
She knew what was right and what was wrong. If Lu Xiang hadn't saved her from danger back then, she wouldn't be living the comfortable life she has now.
Seeing that Lu Xiang had something to ask for, she agreed without even asking. This straightforwardness alone was enough to move Lu Xiang.
Lu Xiang said, "I'm quite busy over there. Although I've hired a few people, none of them can take charge."
Sister Lu said, "I am in better health now than before."
Sister Lu knew that Lu Xiang would not ask for help easily, so she came here today specifically because she had something to ask: "I'm going to tell Mom."
Lu Xiang said, "Let me go with you!" She hadn't seen Lu's mother for a long time.
When I got there, I saw Mrs. Lu and Mr. Lu flushing the pigpen.
Lu Xiang called out "Mom," and her parents looked up with some joy. Seeing Lu Xiang and her sister about to go over, Lu's mother quickly said, "Just stand over there. It smells bad here. I'll be there right after I finish cleaning up."
As soon as he finished speaking, they started working faster, collecting the manure into a bucket.
These are used in the village when making manure. The Lu family sold their land and concentrated on raising pigs.
After a simple cleanup, Mother Lu took off her apron, washed her hands, and came over. "What's wrong?"
Sister Lu told her that Lu Xiang wanted her help.
When Mother Lu heard this, she immediately said, "Go ahead. You sisters are together, and I don't have to worry about you anymore."
Lu Xiang was a well-respected person in the village. It would be great if the two of them could help each other out. After all, they were sisters, so they were closer than outsiders.
Seeing that Lu's mother agreed so quickly, Lu Xiang said, "Then let's go back together today." The house Lu Xiang bought is very big, so they will live there for the time being.
Lu Xiang also said: "Pack all your things and take your household registration book with you. I'll see if I can arrange for Xiaobao to go to school later."
When Sister Lu heard about such a good thing, she was both happy and grateful: "Thank you, sister." She only has this one daughter. If the child could go to school, she wouldn't have to get married so early like her.
Girls can only have a good future if they go to school.
Lu Xiang said, "I'm going to go back to my husband's house to have a meal first. I'll come find you after dinner and we can go together by car."
Sister Lu said, "Go quickly."
After returning home for a meal, Xiao Cailian felt incredibly distressed knowing they would only be staying for a short time. Worried they would have to spend money on everything in the county, she took several dried vegetables with her when they left.
Even before she left, she looked like she was about to cry. Lu Xiang said, "Mom, we'll be back next week."
Mrs. Fu also advised: "Of course, the county is so close to the village. If you miss them, you can go there anytime! I will accompany you then."
Xiao Cailian quickly wiped the corners of her eyes and said, "I don't miss them. I don't miss anyone."
When Lu Xiang left, she took her elder sister and Lu Bao with her.
That night they went to the small villa in Luxiang County. As soon as they entered, Sister Lu was shocked when she saw this kind of Western-style villa for the first time: "This... This is a palace!"
She had never seen such a luxurious and beautiful little house.
Lu Xiang's house has many guest rooms, and she arranged one for each of the mother and daughter.
Lu Xiang's little niece Lu Bao had her own room for the first time and she was so happy that she was spinning around in circles.
When Lu Xiang saw him, Lu Bao shyly hid behind his mother, his cheeks flushed.
Sister Lu knew that Lu Xiang was capable, but Lu Xiang kept refreshing her understanding.
She is truly not an ordinary person as she can live her current life in the village.
That night, Lu Xiang had a special chat with her elder sister: "Just help me manage it." She must have someone she trusts.
Sister Lu originally thought it was very hard work, but when she heard that Lu Xiang had hired five aunts, she blinked and was stunned for a long time.
Lu Xiang said, "I can't let you work for nothing. I'll pay you 100 yuan a month."
Sister Lu was shocked by the salary: "Why is it so much?"
Lu Xiang knew that Sister Lu was a careful person and had not saved much over the years. Now that her children were growing up, she had many places to spend money.
With Sister Lu around, she feels at ease. Otherwise, if someone else gets involved in the business with a daily turnover of seven or eight hundred yuan and hides a few dollars, no one will notice.
With Sister Lu helping to manage things, this kind of behavior has been stopped. Giving a hundred dollars isn't really too much.
Sister Lu didn't know what Lu Xiang was thinking and said, "Why so much?" When she was in the village, she worked hard for only 15 yuan a month.
Lu Xiang said, "Just take it if I give it to you. It's very tiring. If I give you less, I won't feel comfortable! But if someone asks, just say thirty."
Sister Lu nodded.
Sister Lu didn't sleep well that night.
The next day, Lu Xiang took Xi Nian and her niece to the kindergarten. Xi Nian went to the nursery, while Lu Bao did not attend school and just stayed there.
Many children from the factory play there. It's like having the kindergarten look after them, and the fee is one yuan a day.
This one dollar also includes three meals and fruit.
After arranging everything for the child, Sister Lu finally followed Lu Xiang to the Malatang restaurant, which opened at noon.
The most spectacular thing is the dishes in the kitchen, piled up like a mountain.
Lu Xiang introduced the five aunts here to Sister Lu.
It also introduces how to make spicy hot pot and how to charge money.
These aunts all knew that Sister Lu was Lu Xiang’s biological sister, so they naturally did not dare to neglect her.
Lu Xiang said: "She will be in charge of this place from now on, and she will also pay your salaries!" This will boost Sister Lu's prestige.
It's not easy to handle so many vegetables, but these aunties can find their own jobs, washing and cutting.
Sister Lu asked, "How much can we use?" There were several large buckets of soaked cold noodles and sliced noodles in the kitchen.
Aunt Cai said, "This is not enough."
This is true. It’s only enough for the morning. I have to do it again in the afternoon.
Lu Xiang was no longer surprised and took Sister Lu to internship on the first day.
It was not until noon that Sister Lu realized that everyone was so busy that they were running around like they were at war.
Sister Lu had no experience for the first time and was a little flustered.
But seeing Lu Xiang standing there calmly, he regained some confidence. Apart from the initial chaos, he gradually became organized later on.
Lu Xiang said that she would not be in the store in the afternoon and everything would be left to Sister Lu.
Sister Lu was a little confused. She didn't expect such an important task to be assigned to her so soon, but she also solemnly agreed.
Lu Xiang was going somewhere else. She heard that there was an old woman in the county who had been making fish balls for generations. She planned to study with her to see if she could supply her with fish balls, preferably fish tofu.
If you can do both, you can also add flavor to the spicy hot pot.
