Seeing Qian Xiaoxiao's haggard expression, Lu Jiaxin said, "I asked you to take a plane a long time ago, but you didn't want to. Even a strong body can't handle this."
Xiao Xiao had no choice but to go back to her hometown this time. Her adoptive mother had chest pains but she didn't go to the hospital. After two months, she still hadn't recovered. She had no choice but to go back.
Qian Xiaoxiao said helplessly: "The doctor said it was pericarditis. I'll have to hang an IV for a week and then take medicine. But this disease can be cured, but it's a little troublesome. And I can't work too hard in the future, otherwise it will affect my life span."
She used all her skills to get her adoptive mother to agree to go for a checkup, and then took her directly to the provincial hospital for a checkup. She was relieved when the doctor said she could be cured, but it was also because she was sent there in time. If it had been delayed for another year or two, it would have been hard to say.
"As long as it can be cured."
The next day, Lu Jiaxin took Qian Xiaoxiao to Yangcheng. When Lu Hongjun found out, Lu Jiaxin had already boarded the plane.
Lu Hongjun was very angry and called Lu Jiaguang's office: "Has Jiaxin returned to Hong Kong City?"
Lu Jiaguang nodded and said, "Yes, something happened in Hong Kong City and she rushed back to deal with it."
"Did she give you any money?"
Lu Jiaguang paused for a moment, then said, "For my career, Jiaxin kept the evidence of that woman to herself; for Jiajie, she never lost her temper when Fifth Brother's wife resented her; before she left, she helped Jiazong, and now the couple can earn thousands of yuan a month. Third Uncle, Jiaxin resented you because you went too far, it's not her fault. You will not only disappoint Jiaxin, but also make us uncomfortable."
Lu Hongjun didn't say anything. He didn't know what to say. They always quarreled when they met since they came back from the ancient capital. He was always angry at his daughter for not listening. But after Ding Jing went in, he began to get a little scared. When he faced her this time, he felt a sense of panic.
Lu Jiaguang said, "Jiaxin rushed back this time because of an emergency. She didn't leave me any money, but she will definitely do what she promised. Third Uncle, don't be suspicious anymore."
This is his own daughter, not his enemy. He felt uncomfortable hearing such words. If Jiaxin heard it... This was the first time he felt that it was right for Jiaxin to go to Gangcheng, otherwise he would not be able to bear it.
Lu Hongjun was silent for a moment and then said, "I'm old now, and I'm afraid she won't care about me anymore."
Lu Jiaguang said: "Don't worry about this. Jiaxin is not that kind of person. Even if you did go too far before, you are her biological father. You will not ignore it even for the sake of your reputation."
Lu Hongjun explained: "When I lived in the staff quarters, they always talked about me behind my back. I'm getting old now and I just want some peace and quiet, so I want to move out as soon as possible."
Lu Jiaguang said: "Jiaxin will definitely buy the house before the end of the year, but if you want to move, you have to wait until the housing reform is implemented, otherwise the house will be taken back by the company."
Lu Hongjun said that the house would be in Jiaxin's name, and the company had no reason to take it back: "I have worked in the company for more than 30 years, and there is no reason for me to wander the streets when I am old."
Lu Jiaguang said he was not in a hurry and would decide based on the situation when the time comes.
Lu Jiaxin arrived in Pengcheng and stayed in the best hotel. Then she called Nie Zhan, but no one answered. She called Su Heming again, and this time someone answered: "Are you busy? No, let's have dinner together tonight."
Mainly because Gu Wenfeng was worried about her safety, he didn't dare to run around. Su Heming was now a factory manager, and he also had bodyguards around him.
Su Heming was very surprised and said, "Aren't you going to stay in Sijiu City for a while? Why did you come here so soon? Did your father quarrel with you again?"
I have never seen a father like this. If it were him, I would just hang him on the wall and ignore him.
Lu Jiaxin smiled and said, "He was hospitalized three times last year, and my three cousins took turns to take care of him. My three cousins all stood by me, so he didn't dare to quarrel with me."
Su Heming thought Lu Hongjun was stupid and sneered, "They will take turns to go to the hospital to take care of him. They are doing it for the benefit. Otherwise, who would care about him? He will have to rely on you when he can't move in the future."
"Since it's not a quarrel, then is there something wrong?"
"Well, I have some things to deal with back in Hong Kong. I can't explain it clearly over the phone, so let's talk in person."
Su Heming took him to the restaurant they had been to before. After they entered the private room, he said, "Call Xue Mao from your kitchen."
He is an old customer here, and the hotel staff all know that Xue Mao has a close relationship with him. That is why Xue Mao has never been bullied while learning cooking here.
Xue Mao walked into the private room, and Lu Jiaxin was very pleased to see him. Not only had he grown taller, but he had also become stronger after not seeing him for a year. This was good. Before, he was too skinny and worried that he couldn't flip the pot.
Xue Mao was surprised and delighted to see Lu Jiaxin: "Sister Xin, when did you come here?"
Lu Jiaxin couldn't help laughing when she heard his hoarse voice. She didn't expect that he would be in the voice change period at this time. "I arrived in Pengcheng an hour ago. You also studied in the hotel for a year. How do you feel about it?"
Xue Mao said: "It's fine. My master and fellow apprentices are very caring towards me..."
Su Heming thought this boy was really stupid. Lu Jiaxin had paid a large sum of money for his apprenticeship, and those senior brothers knew that he had the support of the big boss, so they would not dare to bully him unless they were stupid.
"How's your study going?"
Xue Mao grinned and said, "Before, I was learning how to cut vegetables. This is the basic skill for a chef and I must learn it well. Last month, the chef said that I had mastered the basic skills and now he is teaching me how to cook."
Su Heming didn't know that he had already started learning how to cook, so he asked, "What special dishes have you learned? Show us your skills during your break one day."
“I can fry it right now.”
Su Heming rolled his eyes at him and said, "I came here and spent a lot of money to eat the dishes cooked by an apprentice like you, and you still have the nerve to ask for it? Tomorrow you take a day off, come to my house and prepare a table for us to taste."
Lu Jiaxin was a little surprised that this guy could now calculate financial accounts.
After chatting for a while, Lu Jiaxin knew that he was very happy here, so she said, "Go and get busy. We can talk slowly after get off work."
"good."
After Xue Mao left, Su Heming asked, "Aren't you going to take him to Hong Kong City?"
Lu Jiaxin shook her head and said, "He only likes cooking and is willing to learn it wholeheartedly. He is not interested in other things. It is a kind of happiness for people to live in this world and do what they like. He is happy here, so let him stay here!"
Su Heming said: "It's also because I have you as my backer, otherwise it wouldn't be that easy."
Lu Jiaxin smiled and said, "If it weren't for him, my grave would probably be covered with grass. Just for this, I should ensure that he lives a safe and prosperous life."
No matter how I repay your life-saving grace, it would never be too much.
