Ma Lili said: "Jiajie, I only told my mother, but I just mentioned it casually and didn't tell him on purpose."

Lu Jiajie asked, "How did your parents treat us back then? They had money but didn't want to lend it to us to buy a house. Yan Jixiang bullied Qiangqiang and Xiaofeng, but she still wanted the two children to give in. Have you forgotten all this?"

Ma Lili didn't dare to look him in the eye and said, "They are my parents. Can I not have any contact with them for the rest of my life?"

"So, you still don't think you're wrong?"

Ma Lili said: "I was wrong. I should have told you earlier."

After the two had a big fight, Lu Jiajie went home. It was getting dark and Lu Jiajie went out and did not come back at night.

Ma Lili thought he was drinking with friends and stayed at his friend's house when he was drunk, but she didn't smell any alcohol when she got close. She looked stern and asked, "Where did you go last night?"

Lu Jiajie ignored her and went straight back to his room.

Ma Lili knew that he was still angry, but she had to rush to work, so she gave her two children a few words and hurried out.

After Lu Jiajie got married, he lived in the Ma family. He felt guilty and did all the housework except washing clothes. He was good at carrying coal briquettes and rice, washing clothes and feeding the children. The two children were very close to him.

I asked the two children to help pack the clothes, and then went out to a restaurant for lunch on time, and then I took the two children out.

When Ma Lili came back, she saw a note left on the table saying that he had taken the two children back to his hometown.

Looking at the note, Ma Lili was so angry that she was smoking. But the person had already boarded the train and could not be brought back, so she could only bear it. Just thinking about Zheng Panlan's request today to wait for money to buy New Year's goods, she felt overwhelmed.

As the Chinese New Year approaches, every household starts making snacks. Lu Jiaxin doesn't eat fried food because it causes internal heat and has no nutrition, but she is a little greedy when she smells the fragrance coming from her every day. First, she asked Xue Mao to buy glutinous rice flour and sticky rice flour and other ingredients, and then called Lu Ping and his four siblings to come over the next day to make cakes together.

Lu Jiaxin prepared to make two kinds of rice cakes, one is sugar rice cake and the other is flower cake. Under Lu Jiaxin's guidance, a steamer was quickly made.

Lu Zhenzhen smelled the fragrance and shouted that she wanted to eat it. Lu Jiaxin looked at her watch and waited for five minutes before opening the steamer. After looking at the color, she took out a piece.

After carefully taking a bite of the sugar-coated rice cake, Lu Zhenzhen exclaimed that it was delicious, and even asked for more after she finished it.

Lu Jiaxin took the steamer and put it on the table, letting everyone help themselves. She ate a piece herself, and it was sweet and soft, leaving a lasting aftertaste. Well, her cooking skills were not lost.

After Xue Mao finished eating, he said excitedly: "Sister Xin, please teach me how to make it! I will sell it when I learn it, it will definitely be popular."

Lu Jiaxin felt that she was obsessed with money: "After the Lantern Festival, you have to go to school. If you don't study hard, you can't run the breakfast stall."

"ah……"

Lu Jiaxin scolded, "What? Do you really want to be illiterate? If you want to run a breakfast stall for the rest of your life, I won't care about you anymore."

Xue Mao didn't want to go to school, but he was afraid that Lu Jiaxin would really ignore him in the future. He was able to have a good life now because of Sister Xin. If Sister Xin didn't care about him, Xue Mao was afraid that he would go back to the past: "Sister Xin, I practice calligraphy every day. If you don't believe me, I'll show you now."

Lu Jiaxin said, "No need. The book is for you to read and the words are for you to practice. If you want to fool people, you are fooling yourself."

Xue Mao immediately said that he would study seriously and would never fool around.

Well, the little cotton-padded jacket is still caring.

Lu Jiaxin prepared quite a lot this time. She smiled and said, "The chicken stewed in the kitchen was brought over by your mother this morning. Your parents go to work every day, so you should eat more good food to replenish your body."

After the chicken was stewed, Lu Jiaxin asked the two older brothers, Lu Ping and Lu An, to take Lu Zhang and Lu Zhenzhen respectively to deliver the food.

When Lu Jiaguang was on a mission, it was often dangerous, so Mrs. Lu named them Pingping and An'an, hoping that her brother would always be safe. The names are very ordinary, but they carry the most sincere feelings.

Lu Jiaguang was about to go to the cafeteria for lunch. He was surprised to hear that his two sons had come. When he heard that they were here to deliver cakes and chicken soup, he was very surprised. This was the first time in so many years that his family had delivered food to the company. It wasn't that Wang Xiaojie didn't care about him, but she had to work and take care of the children and didn't have the time and energy.

Lu An said, "We made the cakes with my aunt, and Zhenzhen said she wanted to give them to you and mom. Mom bought the chicken and sent it to my aunt, who said you and mom need some nourishment since you're busy all day."

Lu Jiaguang felt relieved. He ate a piece of flower cake, which tasted just as good as the ones bought from the cake shop. He didn't like sweets, so he ate one piece and left it alone.

Lu An was also a little hungry, and wanted to go back after the food was delivered: "Dad, we're going back first."

"Don't go back, just have lunch here."

The two brothers were unwilling to go to the cafeteria to eat. Lu Jiaxin was very generous in eating, and Xue Mao's cooking skills were also good. The food was very delicious, which was incomparable to the cafeteria.

"Okay, be careful on the road."

Seeing the two brothers flying out of the office, Lu Jiaguang chuckled, then took some cakes and chicken soup to the cafeteria. After receiving a wave of praise and envy, he walked back to the office with a smile on his face.

"Ring, ring, ring..."

The call was from Lu Hongjun: "Jiaguang, I heard that Jiajie went back to his hometown. Why didn't you tell me about this?"

He only found out yesterday that Lu Jiajie had returned. He had originally asked him to come home to help, but his niece-in-law said that he had taken his two children back to his hometown to celebrate the New Year.

Lu Jiaguang knew that Lu Jiajie was going back to celebrate the New Year, and he was the one who bought the two sleeper tickets for him. However, he thought that Lu Jiajie had told Lu Hongjun about this: "Jiajie has never been back to celebrate the New Year in Sijiu City. Now that he has taken a long vacation and has time, he should take the two children back to celebrate the New Year."

It's not that Lu Jiajie doesn't want to go back, but the factory where he works usually closes on the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month and goes back to work on the 3rd day of the first lunar month. At the end of the year, the factory is very busy and does not allow leave. For someone like him, it's even more busy at the end of the year and he can't take leave.

Lu Hongjun nodded and said, "When you come to my place during the New Year this year, don't bring anything. Just come and see me."

The year Lu's mother passed away, Wang Xiaojie couldn't stand Ding Jing's face and spent the New Year at home. After that, Lu Hongjun would call the couple every New Year, and she went there to save face. Last year, it was Lu Jiaguang's turn to work the night shift on New Year's Eve, so Wang Xiaojie spent the New Year at home with her children.

When Lu Jiaguang heard this, his good mood disappeared instantly: "Uncle San, we have to go to Jiaxin's place for the New Year this year. This is the first year she moved into her new home, and the house cannot be empty during the New Year."

This is the custom, and the couple agreed as soon as Lu Jiaxin told them about it.
