Chapter 238 You Deserve It
Ai Xiaoxia's words were not only directed at Lu Guosheng, but also at Wang Jinfeng. It was her unfairness and bias that caused these children to grow up crooked, and it was her responsibility.
Sure enough, these words made Wang Jinfeng feel even more uncomfortable. She understood what Ai Xiaoxia said. In fact, she really regretted it now. If she had not been biased, then when Lu Guojiu was in trouble, both the eldest son and the youngest son would have helped him. Now that the second son has made progress, he can also promote his brother. How great would that be.
But how could she have thought so much before? She had originally thought that her youngest son would never make mistakes, but she was really angry to think that he would go astray at this age.
Lu Guosheng actually understood that what Ai Xiaoxia said made sense, but he was used to a comfortable life. In the past, he just drank tea and read newspapers at work. Now, if he were asked to really work like a worker, or set up a stall like Ai Xiaoxia said, he couldn't bear the hardship.
He had originally thought that it would be nice to go to Ai Xiaoxia's shop to eat, but she wouldn't let him go. What should he do? He had no choice but to be unreasonable, but now he didn't know what to say.
Ai Xiaoxia looked at the mess in the house and didn't want to stay any longer, so she looked at Lu Jingshen.
Lu Jingshen said to Wang Jinfeng, "Grandma, it's nothing. Let's go back. I still have to show my parents around. They don't come to the city often."
Wang Jinfeng wanted to keep them but didn't know how to explain it. She thought there was no point in keeping them. It seemed that she could only pretend to be sick for a while. It was the New Year and it was not auspicious to say that she was sick. She still wanted to live a few more years.
So I didn't insist at this time and told them to come back if they didn't go back.
Everyone exchanged a few polite words, and then Ai Xiaoxia and the others said goodbye and went home.
I didn't ask them to come out to see me off because there was nothing much to say and it would be awkward if I did.
After they left the corridor and walked for a while, they started talking.
Ai Xiaoxia said, "I think my aunt is determined to get a divorce. It's a good thing she gets a divorce."
Lu Jingshen said, "Indeed, I used to think it's better to demolish a temple than to break up a marriage, but given their family's situation, it's really best for them to get a divorce."
Lu Guojiu sighed deeply: "Your grandma will have a hard time in the future. Your uncle is not the one who can take care of others. If things go wrong, your grandma will have to take care of your uncle."
Ai Xiaoxia said, "Dad, that was also my grandma's doing. She has always doted on my uncle and didn't let him grow up, so she has to suffer. It's really not that difficult to make money now. You see a lot of people being laid off, but there are also many individuals starting up. Personal shops and factories are hiring. My uncle is old enough that he can find a job anywhere. Who can he blame if he doesn't want to find a job?"
Lu Guojiu nodded and said, "That's true. Your grandma really dotes on him too much. He's so grown up, but he doesn't take responsibility. He deserves it. Letting your grandma take care of him is good for them. It will help them learn some sense and become self-reliant sooner."
Li Shaofen said, "I also support Jiang Zhi's divorce. I look down on men like Lu Guosheng anyway."
Ai Xiaoxia took Li Shaofen's arm and smiled: "Mom, we have the same idea."
Lu Jingshen looked at Ai Xiaoxia and said, "You can make Mom's thinking twenty years younger."
Lu Guojiu smiled and said, "Not only your mother has improved, I have also improved with Xiaoxia. I am now fully awake and will definitely not hold you back, nor will I make things difficult for you. Anyway, I have the nerve to say no to anyone now, so don't worry."
Ai Xiaoxia had witnessed her father-in-law's true transformation today. She smiled and said, "Well, I believe in Dad. He behaved very well today."
Lu Guojiu said: "I understand you. You are not cold-blooded, but you know your limits. We can lend them money, but we must not let them get involved in our business."
Lu Jingshen smiled and said, "Dad, your thinking is indeed progressive. You are right. They are all greedy people, especially my uncle. If he went to work in the store, he would want to take over the store for himself, so people like him must be rejected."
Lu Guojiu nodded, then remained silent for a moment before continuing, "But I think your uncle has really changed. He is really different now."
Li Shaofen said: "Well, the tone of Big Brother's voice feels different."
Ai Xiaoxia also felt the same way: "Yeah, but uncle won't have time to do anything else in the future. He will have to take care of a half-paralyzed person and fight with his unfilial son. He will have his share of hardship."
Lu Jingshen said, "The supply and marketing cooperative will be contracted out immediately, and Lu Jingxue will be laid off soon."
This reminded everyone of what Lin Jianye said, and they all felt very emotional.
Of course, if Lu Jingxue is willing to work, he can also cook for the big pot of food for weddings and funerals, but he is not a person who can endure hardship.
Lu Guojiu and Li Shaofen stayed here for three days and then hurried back. They were still thinking about their business and wanted to start making money as soon as possible. Moreover, after the New Year, the harvest would begin, and they had to start thinking about building a factory.
Early in the morning, Ai Xiaoxia sent her parents-in-law to the bus station. Lu Guojiu and Li Shaofen had often taken the bus to see a doctor before, so they were not unfamiliar with it. They did not let Ai Xiaoxia send them back to their hometown. They just sent them to the station and took the bus back by themselves.
Anyway, the bus goes directly to their village, so there is no need to worry. Ai Xiaoxia asked them to go home and call her so that she can feel at ease.
When she came out of the station, she saw a familiar figure, but the person soon disappeared in the crowd. Ai Xiaoxia didn't think much about it and went home.
Not long after arriving home, Ai Xiaoxia received a call from Li Shaofen, saying that she was home, and she felt relieved.
Before sitting down to talk on the phone, Ai Xiaoxia thought about her sister again.
There has been no news from Ai Laibao these days, but it hasn't even been a week, so let's wait a little longer. If there is still no news after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, she and Lu Jingshen will have to use the violent methods they used before. At that time, they will let Sun Qiang come forward to tie up Meng Qiuju and Ai Zhu and scare them. This will always make them tell the truth. It's still the New Year, so it's not a good time to take action.
Of course, Ai Xiaoxia now has a direction, and knows that as long as she keeps an eye on the mother and daughter, she will be able to find clues anyway, so she feels at ease. She will wait for two days, after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, and even if she has to make Meng Qiuju and Ai Zhu bleed, she will force them to confess the matter. It is still the New Year, so it is not appropriate to take action.
Around noon, Ai Xiaoxia went to Ju Huiyan's store. Her parents-in-law were here for the past two days, and she had not found time to visit Ju Huiyan. She was very concerned about Ju Huiyan.
It just so happened that she and Lu Jingshen had an appointment to meet at the gate of the compound at noon today. Because her parents-in-law had gone home, he also wanted to go to the store at noon to take a look. The store had just been open for two days after the New Year, and there might be many problems. She was one of the bosses and could not be negligent. She also had to ask Sun Qiang about the progress of the new store.
