Chapter 176 The Situation at Uncle's House
Jiang Zhi had cleaned up the house long ago, but there was no sense of home at all, especially the coldness between Jiang Zhi and Lu Guosheng.
Lu Guosheng lost money by doing business without Jiang Zhi's knowledge. Jiang Zhi had reminded him before that if he did business, he should do more research, but Lu Guosheng did not listen, which led to the disaster.
But something happened, and Lu Guosheng was unable to bear the responsibility. Now he has to rely on Jiang Zhi, and Lu Guosheng also feels guilty.
Lu Guosheng also threw away the wine bottles. He had been in a very negative mood these days. He used to think that he was the pride of the Lu family, but now he has become like this.
The main thing is that he has to get help from people he looks down upon, which is embarrassing, but if he doesn't have the money, he might go to jail, so he still looks forward to the money.
Wang Jinfeng no longer pretended to be troubled, because she knew that Ai Xiaoxia and Lu Jingshen were not something she could seduce by crying, making a fuss, or even threatening to commit suicide. Besides, they came with money to save her youngest son, so what else could she say? After all, Wang Jinfeng lived with her youngest son. If her youngest son really went to jail, Jiang Zhi would not take good care of her. She knew what she had done over the years.
Lu Jingxin has matured a lot recently and is no longer as cheerful as before. He is looking forward to his brother and sister-in-law coming. He lacks a direction now and doesn't know what to do in the future.
He also wanted to go find Lu Jingshen a few days ago, but when he thought about what had happened between Wang Jinfeng and his second uncle's family over the years, he didn't want Lu Jingshen and the others to be involved again, so he thought that he would not go find them unless it was absolutely necessary.
But what he never expected was that his uncle did not help at all, and he never expected that his mother would meet his cousin and his wife in the restaurant.
The four people at home didn't talk to each other. Jiang Zhi was washing fruits and making tea in the kitchen. In fact, she didn't want to come out and talk to Lu Guosheng and Wang Jinfeng.
Lu Guosheng sat alone on the sofa, always distracted and thinking about many past events.
Wang Jinfeng returned to her room and stood in front of the window. Where would she put her old face?
Lu Jingxin had been standing at the door. When he heard the noise, he went over to take a look and waited with anticipation.
Finally, when he looked out for who knows how many times, he saw Lu Jingshen and the others coming and quickly opened the door: "Brother, sister-in-law."
Lu Guosheng was already in the living room, and he knew that without the money, he might end up in jail, so he had no choice but to go over and say, "It's cold outside, come in quickly."
Ai Xiaoxia and Lu Jingshen called Lu Guosheng "uncle" and without saying anything else, they went into the house and sat on the sofa.
Jiang Zhi heard the voice and came out: "I made some hot tea for you, drink some to warm yourself up."
Ai Xiaoxia and Lu Jingshen also called Jiang Zhi "Auntie".
Lu Jingxin sat next to Lu Jingshen: "Brother, I heard everything from my mother. Thank you and sister-in-law."
Lu Jingshen smiled: "Didn't you say we are allies? Then how can we ignore you?"
Lu Jingxin also smiled: "Brother, you are really nice. I will borrow this money from you. I will definitely pay it back within three years."
After hearing about the three-year repayment plan, Lu Jingshen knew that Lu Jingxin still wanted to drop out of school to do business. He looked at Lu Jingxin and asked, "Why? You still want to quit school and do business?"
Lu Jingxin was silent for a moment and then said, "If I continue to go to school, I will have to spend another six months in normal school, and another six months of internship after graduation. The internship salary is very low, so I won't be able to save any money in the first year. I want to earn money quickly."
Ai Xiaoxia said to Lu Jingxin, "You only have half a year left in your normal school. No matter what, it's still a degree, and it's a stepping stone to whatever you do in the future. It would be a shame to give up these six months. If you want to make money, I have a way that won't interfere with your schooling."
"Sister-in-law, what can we do?" Lu Jingxin asked Ai Xiaoxia with hope in his eyes.
Ai Xiaoxia said, "You can work part-time at a barbecue restaurant during your holidays and be paid by the hour. This way, you won't have to delay your studies, and you can gain social experience while also earning money. What do you think?"
Lu Jingxin shook his head and said, "Isn't this the same as you giving me money in disguise? No, I don't want it."
Ai Xiaoxia asked Lu Jingxin with a smile, "How do you know I don't really need part-time workers? Have you seen how popular our store is? We're certainly too busy at lunch and dinner, but we don't need those people on weekdays either. I've been thinking about hiring part-time workers. Do you think I told you that you're just going to kill time? Our store is very strict. You'll have to go through training even if you go there, and you can only start working if you pass. Whether you can earn this money depends on you."
Lu Jingxin perked up after hearing this. He looked at Ai Xiaoxia excitedly, "Really? Sister-in-law? I'll do it then. Actually, I really want to finish my studies. After all, it's only half a year away. After graduation, I'm going to go south with my friends to sell tapes. Tapes can make a lot of money these days."
Ai Xiaoxia knew that tapes were being replaced too quickly by VCDs, DVDs, and MP3s. If you did a good job and kept up with the pace, it would be fine. If you didn't, you might be eliminated. The biggest risk was inventory pressure. You might have just purchased a large batch of tapes, but the next day you couldn't sell them and ended up with a lot of them.
Ai Xiaoxia is not so confident about doing these businesses. She still feels that catering, clothing, and her own specialty design will not be easily eliminated in the future.
So she said to Lu Jingxin, "Jingxin, doing business also requires social experience. I think if you really don't want to be a teacher, then you can come and help me after you graduate. When you have enough social experience, you can do what you want to do, and it will be less likely to make mistakes."
She can't restrict other people's future. What if they go out and make a living and become more successful than herself?
But she still hopes that after Lu Jingxin has some experience, he will know better how to make choices.
At this time, Lu Jingshen also said to Lu Jingxin, "What your sister-in-law said makes sense. Maybe you see your classmates making some quick money now, but can those businesses continue to grow and develop? The country now supports entrepreneurship, and there are many opportunities. I also hope that you can find the right direction and not waste the opportunity. So, it would be more helpful for you to follow your sister-in-law to practice for a while before going out and venturing out."
After listening to what Ai Xiaoxia and Lu Jingshen said, Lu Jingxin felt clear about his direction in his heart. What his brother and sister-in-law said made sense. His classmates went out to trade things and made money, but they never talked about the future. Perhaps what they lacked was precipitation and social experience.
He said to Ai Xiaoxia and Lu Jingshen, "Brother, sister-in-law, I will listen to you. As long as sister-in-law doesn't think I'm a nuisance, it's fine. I'm lucky to be able to learn from you."
Ai Xiaoxia smiled and said, "Okay, then it's a deal. You'll work part-time while you're in school. It'll be your first step into society. When you graduate, if you really don't want to go back to school for an internship, you can do business with me. I'll teach you whatever you want to learn."
