Gu Xiuxiu felt a little tired after walking around, so she sat down to rest.

Hong Gu brought a young maid over with cakes, fruits and tea. The boiled water was for Gu Xiuxiu, who was not in good health and could not drink beverages, while the coffee was brought to Lu Jiaxin.

The aroma of coffee was very strong. Lu Jiaxin sniffed it and said with a smile, "I've read in a book that there is a kind of coffee beans extracted from cat excrement. The aroma is a bit like chocolate and a bit like fruit. Aunt, this can't be cat poop coffee, right?"

Hong Gu and the maid looked at her in surprise.

Gu Xiuxiu didn't expect Lu Jiaxin to be so knowledgeable. She smiled and nodded: "Yes, this is civet coffee, also known as civet coffee. I can't drink coffee anymore in my current state. If you like it, bring some home tomorrow."

Lu Jiaxin hurriedly shook her head and said, "I don't like coffee. I like scented tea. Scented tea has the effect of maintaining health and beautifying the face."

In her previous life, she often stayed up late when she went abroad to study, and her three meals were irregular and her sleep and rest schedule was irregular, which led to stomach cancer at a young age. In this life, she wants to live to be 80 years old, so she has to eat three meals on time and have a regular sleep and rest schedule, and she will never touch coffee.

Gu Xiuxiu laughed: "How old are you? Why do you want to take care of yourself? When your body is well, you can eat whatever you want and play whatever you want. When you are old, your body will not allow you to eat or play."

Keeping in good health doesn’t mean you can’t eat or have fun, you just need to exercise restraint.

After talking for a while, Gu Xiuxiu asked Hong Gu and the maid to go back to the house, and then asked Lu Jiaxin: "You came here in a hurry to apply for an ID card. Are you going to do something to that woman?"

Lu Jiaxin nodded and said, "I've wanted to do it for a long time, but she has my father to protect her, and I have many concerns. Now that I've come here to get an ID card, I don't have to worry about anything."

Now that the guardian has become Gu Xiuxiu, she is no longer afraid of falling out with Lu Hongjun.

Gu Xiuxiu didn't ask how to deal with Ding Jing, but just reminded her: "That woman can make your father obey her, which shows that she is very scheming and has her own tricks. You should be more careful with her and don't let her trick you."

"Don't worry, Auntie. I know what I'm doing."

The two chatted for a while, and the housekeeper came back with Gu Haifan. When she saw Gu Haifan, she immediately understood why Gu Xiuxiu brought this child here. His eyebrows and eyes were four or five points like Gu Xiuxiu, and his pair of big eyes with clear black and white showed innocence.

Gu Xiuxiu called Gu Haifan to her side and said, "Haifan, this is your cousin Jiaxin."

Gu Haifan saw that Lu Jiaxin was a little embarrassed and spoke in a low voice: "Hello cousin, I'm Haifan."

Lu Jiaxin could understand him being like this. Three meals a day was a problem for him in the countryside, and now he suddenly came to a prosperous city like Gangcheng and lived in a luxury house. He must be feeling uneasy and even felt it was unreal.

The next day, He Bin took her to the Hong Kong Island Personnel Registration Office to apply for an ID card. Hong Kong now uses the third-generation ID card, which requires a headshot and a paper model of the person concerned, and the information is also filled in with a typewriter. Because all the information was ready, He Bin had asked someone to give him a heads up yesterday, so it went smoothly.

Lu Jiaxin discovered a problem during the application process. Some of the seals issued were green, while others were black. She was very surprised. After leaving the office, she pointed at her ID card and asked, "Why is this seal green?"

He Bin explained: "The stamps issued have different colors and represent different meanings. The one with your color means that you have not lived in Hong Kong for seven years. You can tell at a glance that you are a recent immigrant. The other black stamp means you are a permanent resident of Hong Kong."

Lu Jiaxin had never heard of it.

He Bin reminded him, "You must bring your ID card with you when you go out in Hong Kong. If you encounter a police officer asking for your ID card, you may be taken to the police station if you don't have it with you."

Lu Jiaxin nodded to show that she understood. In her previous life, she had watched a lot of Hong Kong police and gangster movies, both movies and TV series, and there were often clips of checking ID cards in them. As for the reason, she also knew that in the 1970s and 1980s, there were many gangs in Hong Kong, and those gang members often caused trouble.

The car was parked quite far away. While waiting for the car, Lu Jiaxin saw a newsstand nearby and walked over to buy a copy of the entertainment and economic newspapers and magazines for the past three days.

When Lu Jiaxin got in the car, He Bin saw that she was holding the Economic Herald in her hand: "Miss cousin, are you still reading the Economic Herald?"

"To kill some time."

Because Lu Jiaxin had to hurry back, He Bin sent her to the port after getting her ID card. After getting off the car, he brought her two boxes of things: "This is what the old lady prepared for you. She also told you to eat it every day so that you can get better quickly."

Lu Jiaxin did not refuse and took it promptly. She would remember all the kindness her aunt had shown her and would be filial to her in the future.

On the way back, He Bin asked the driver Hu Ming: "A Ming, what do you think of our cousin?"

The young cousin didn't know anything. He couldn't speak Cantonese, and he couldn't even use a flush toilet. The servants in the house looked down on him. The young cousin was very cautious in everything he did. But this young cousin was not afraid of the stage at all when she came to Hong Kong.

Hu Ming and He Bin are distant cousins. It was he who introduced this job to him and told him everything he knew: "My cousin has a bad temper. She gave Hong Gu a cold shoulder as soon as she arrived. When she moves in, I'm afraid she will have to wait in line."

Who is Hong Gu? She not only takes care of the old lady's food, clothing, housing and transportation, but also saved her life. Now she is the person the old lady relies on the most, even Mei Gu is inferior to her. If you offend her, you will suffer the consequences.

He Bin thought about what he had learned in Sijiu City and said, "My cousin is not a simple person. You have to be polite to her in the future. Do you understand?"

The girl is arrogant, but she is capable and courageous. In Hong Kong, it is easy for a beautiful, capable and courageous girl to stand out. The He family covets the property in the hands of the old lady, but this cousin does not want the mansion that is delivered to her door. The old lady may have to rely on her in the future!

Hu Ming nodded in agreement.

He Bin remembered something: "Ah Ming, I remember you were planning to buy a house, have you found one?"

Hu Ming said he had found a house, but had not signed the contract yet. After hesitating for a while, he said, "Cousin, that house is beyond our budget, and we were planning to give up. But my wife called me this morning and said that the manager of the building is willing to give us a discount of 25%."

He Bin sat up straight immediately after hearing this: "The property market has been sluggish in recent years, but there haven't been such deep discounts. Ming, there must be something wrong here, you have to be careful."

Hu Ming was also worried about this so he refused, and was scolded by his wife: "Cousin, who do you think it could be?"

He is now driving for the old lady, not only is his salary higher than before, but he also has a lot of free time. If something happens to the old lady, where can she find such an easy and high-paying job?

He Bin was not sure about this either. He said, "It's hard to say. Anyway, don't take what you shouldn't take and don't touch what you shouldn't touch. They go to jail and spend some money to get out quickly. If we go in, no one will help us. When we get out in a few years, our wives and children may become someone else's. It's not worth it."

"I know, cousin."

"You still have to buy a house. I'll lend you the money you need."
