Chapter 305 Thinking Too Much
Looking at Lin Xiaoxia and the others at this time, Zhang Tingting didn't want to talk at all, nor did she want to listen to them talk about how well they were living. She turned around and faced away from Lin Xiaoxia and the others.
Lin Xiaoxia didn't want to talk to Zhang Tingting, so she pulled her mother-in-law and sister-in-law into the house.
It’s okay now. It’s spring and the windows can be opened, so the smell in Lu Guoji’s house is not that strong.
Seeing them coming, Lu Guoji was very happy. He had really changed now. Seeing his relatives was really a love from the heart: "My sister-in-law is here, Xiaoxia and Xiaolin are here too. It's great. The children are becoming more and more promising. It's great. Come in and sit down."
Li Shaofen walked into the house and asked, "Brother, I came to see my sister-in-law. How is she doing now? Are you recovering well?"
Lu Guoji said: "It's fine. Anyway, I can't stand up, but I am satisfied as long as I am alive."
After entering the house, Lin Xiaoxia looked at Jiang Lirong lying on the kang. She no longer had the domineering look she had before. Now she looked like an old lady in her twilight years with white hair.
She has now accepted the reality, but she feels too unwilling in her heart. However, nothing can help. This is her fate. She didn't say anything and closed her eyes and pretended to sleep.
Lin Xiaoxia could also see that Jiang Lirong was pretending to be asleep, her eyelids were still moving, but it was better for her to pretend to be asleep, so they didn't have to stay here any longer.
She said to Lu Guoji, "Uncle, Auntie is asleep. We can just watch her here and won't disturb her."
Lu Guoji still said enthusiastically: "Then let's go to the west room to talk."
Li Shaofen said, "Then don't bother me, big brother. I see Tingting is also working, and you guys are busy just after you came back. I'll come with Guojiu another day."
Lu Guoji said, "Your family is building a house, and I can't help much. Please don't be offended. Jingxue, forget it, let's not talk about him. It gives me a headache. So I won't keep you here. When you have time, let Guojiu come and talk to me."
Li Shaofen nodded and said, "Okay, big brother. I'll tell Guojiu, and then we'll go back."
Lu Guoji saw them out the door.
Only after watching these people leave did Jiang Lirong open her eyes. She no longer wanted to die like she did at the beginning. After she regained consciousness, she still had a desire to live. Now she was reluctant to die.
But he also didn't want to face the current Li Shaofen. He had always suppressed his sister-in-law in the past. Now she was going to open a factory. The whole village envied their family, but he had become a disabled person.
Lu Guoji saw them out the door before going back.
Zhang Tingting had already returned to the west room as she didn't want to face Lin Xiaoxia and the others.
Lin Xiaoxia and the others walked out while talking about what had just happened. They all realized that Jiang Lirong was pretending to be asleep, but that was also a good thing. She didn't know what to say and felt awkward, so she just came back.
When you see acquaintances on the way, you should tell them that you went to Lu Guoji's house. Everyone knows that their family is polite and considerate.
As soon as they got home, Lin Jianye called and said that his younger uncle Lin Jianshe had come back to see Lin Mei, and his second uncle Lin Jianguo was also at home. He asked them to go directly to dinner when they returned home in the evening and not to cook.
Li Shaofen said that it was a rare opportunity for the family to be reunited, so she asked Lin Xiaoxia to go find Lu Jingshen quickly and go back early, and that the younger generation should help with as much work as possible.
Lin Xiaoxia was not in a hurry to go back, but she couldn't persuade Li Shaofen, so she had to go find Lu Jingshen.
The two said goodbye to their families and returned to the city, going directly to Lin Jianye's house.
When they arrived, the house was bustling with activity. The whole family was there, except for their aunt Lin Miao, but Lin Miao had called back today.
I turned on the hands-free phone at home and talked to Lin Miao.
Lin Miao was so happy to know that not only Lin Xiaoxia was found, but Lin Mei was also found. He said he would try to come back next month.
Lin Xiaoxia could tell from the phone call that her aunt was really a very capable person. She liked her character and she was looking forward to meeting her aunt sooner.
After hanging up the phone, Huang Wanxia and her two sisters-in-law went to cook without the help of their younger generations.
Lin Xiaoxia really liked sitting on the side and listening to her father and uncles chatting, talking about many things of this era.
As he was talking, Lin Jianguo talked about their unit. They had recently started laying off employees. There were too many idle positions before, so one-third of the people would be laid off.
Speaking of being laid off, Lin Jianguo was also a little melancholy: "Although I should not be laid off, but think about it, our family conditions are actually okay, even if I was laid off, we would not have delayed our lives. Looking at those who have elderly parents and young children, sometimes I also think, why not just leave and leave the job to those who need it more."
Lin Xiaoxia admired her second uncle's spirit very much. She thought about what she had told Zhou Yunchao before, that she planned to open a jade shop in the city in the future. She originally thought that it would take two or three years to open, so she didn't rush to tell Lin Jianguo about it. Now was the perfect time to tell him. Even if it took another two or three years to open, then these two years would allow Lin Jianguo to go to the mine and learn more about it.
She said to Lin Jianguo, "Second Uncle, can you retire now?"
Lin Jianguo nodded. "I'm considered one of the older guys in the company, so I can apply for internal retirement. However, internal retirement doesn't provide much security, except for social security."
Lin Xiaoxia looked at Lin Jianguo with a smile: "Uncle, don't you want to do something you like?"
Lin Jianguo looked at Lin Xiaoxia and shook his head: "At my age, what kind of career can I have?"
"Uncle, don't forget that there is a jade mine in Jingshen. We went to the mine a few days ago. Our partner said that he wanted to open a jade shop in the city in two or three years, but he was short of someone knowledgeable in the business. I said at the time that Uncle was suitable, but I was afraid that you didn't have the time." Lin Xiaoxia quickly told him about this.
Lin Jianguo was delighted to hear this: "Really?" But then he became a little worried and said: "But I don't know how to run a business?"
Lu Jingshen said from the side: "It's okay, Second Uncle, when the time comes, just find someone who understands business management to work with you, right?"
Lin Jianguo nodded happily: "That's great, as long as you don't mind that Second Uncle doesn't know much."
Lin Xiaoxia smiled and said, "Second Uncle is being modest with us. Besides, wouldn't we feel more at ease using our own family? Second Uncle can retire anytime, and then you can go wander around Qingyan County when you're free. You've been working for decades, and it's time for a good rest before you can start your ambitious career. How wonderful life would be!"
Lin Jianguo couldn't stop smiling: "Look, my niece arranged everything for me. It's perfect. I'm really lucky. If I tell others about this, my colleagues will be envious to death."
The more he thought about it, the happier he became, because this was indeed something he had not expected. The main reason was not only that he was not afraid of being laid off, but also that he could do what he liked in the future.
Lin Jianye said to Lin Xiaoxia, "You don't know, you've become the bragging child of your second uncle. Everyone who knows him knows that he has a capable niece."
Lin Xiaoxia also smiled and said, "Then I have to do better and help my second uncle become more famous in the future."
Just as he was talking happily, the phone at home rang. Lin Rui picked up the phone, said a few words, and handed it to Lin Jianye: "Dad is looking for you, he's very anxious."
