Wang Xiaojie said, "Jiaxin, it's not easy for you to earn money, so don't buy things for us anymore. If you buy anything again, I'll have to pay you."

In order to reduce her guilt, Lu Jiaxin smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, Brother Su bought three of the old items that Master Sun collected for me to give away, and received 360,000 Hong Kong dollars from him. According to our agreement, I have to give you 72,000 Hong Kong dollars for 20% of the shares, which is more than 20,000 Chinese dollars. This is only a small part of it. If I sell all of them and give you dividends, it will be far more than the money to buy a house."

Wang Xiaojie waved her hands and said, "That's not how it's calculated. Shipping this old item to the port city will involve a lot of risks along the way. It's not easy to pass customs, and we have to find a buyer."

That being said, Lu Jiaxin's words did alleviate her guilt. She also made up her mind to let her husband help Jiaxin keep the antique shop.

After looking at the house, Lu Jiaxin was about to go back to the hotel: "Sister-in-law, I called my second brother and his family at the hotel, but no one answered. I'll call them again in the evening. I'll go back for dinner tomorrow. If you're busy and don't have time, ask A Zhang and Zhen Zhen to come over."

"What about noon?"

"I'm going to visit my mother's grave tomorrow and will eat outside at noon."

Wang Xiaojie thought about the grave relocation she mentioned before: "Jia Xin, you should not relocate the grave! During festivals and Qingming Festival, your eldest brother and I will go to visit your mother's grave. Even after a hundred years, there will still be Ping Ping and An An."

Lu Jiaxin shook her head and said, "How can they be the same? Besides, not only does my mother's grave need to be moved, my grandmother's grave also needs to be moved. When my mother was alive, she felt very uncomfortable whenever she mentioned my grandmother, and now no one is taking care of her grave. I am her only remaining bloodline in this world, and I definitely cannot ignore it after knowing this."

Wang Xiaojie was surprised and reminded: "The Ding family will not agree."

"They will agree."

After sending Wang Xiaojie home, Lu Jiaxin went back to the hotel. It was so cold outside and she didn't want to go out, so she took out a book to read when she had nothing to do in the house.

Qian Xiaoxiao walked out quietly, and when she saw Gu Wenfeng was about to go in, she shushed him, "Sister Xin is reading a book, don't go in and disturb her."

It was not until dinner time that Lu Jiaxin came out.

Gu Wenfeng said to her, "Jia Xin, I just called my boss. He said he would come to see you after get off work, but I persuaded him not to."

He knew that Lu Jiaxin didn't like to be high-profile. The leader's arrival would definitely alarm the people in the hotel, and the next few days might not be peaceful.

Lu Jiaxin was not surprised that Xie Kaixiao would come to her. Even if Gu Wenfeng did not reveal his situation, the 20 million donated last year was enough to attract his attention: "I will go to my mother's grave tomorrow, and I will visit Aunt Su the morning after tomorrow."

This meant that if Xie Kaixiao had anything to say, they could meet at home the day after tomorrow to discuss it. As for what to discuss, it depended on Xie Kaixiao's opinion. There were only three special economic zones in the mainland that could be invested in, and the inland areas were not within her consideration.

"good."

In the evening, Lu Jiaxin called Lu Ersao and others and told them that she had returned.

It was Xiaoqiu who answered the phone. She felt very guilty knowing that she was staying in a hotel. "Aunt, why are you staying in a hotel? My eldest brother and his wife rented a house over in Xiushui Street. You have a lot of people to bring with you, so my parents can stay with my eldest brother and his wife."

After talking for a while, Lu Jiaxin hung up the phone.

An hour and a half later, Second Sister-in-law Lu and Second Brother Lu arrived at the restaurant. Seeing that their heads and bodies were covered with snowflakes, Lu Jiaxin hurriedly said, "Second Brother, Second Sister-in-law, what are you doing? Didn't I say I would go there tomorrow afternoon? What if you slip in this heavy snow?"

Mrs. Lu handed her the lunch box hidden in her arms: "Here, don't you like mutton dumplings the most? I made them for you."

"Don't worry, when the store was being renovated, I went home to learn from your aunt. I didn't come back until your aunt said that I had inherited her true skills."

Lu Jiaxin felt that this small lunch box seemed to weigh a thousand pounds, and her eyes couldn't help but become moist.

Mrs. Lu urged, "What are you standing there for? Eat quickly, or it won't taste good if it gets cold."

"No, it will taste good even if it's cold."

Lu Jiaxin had just finished her meal, but she still ate for the sake of Second Sister-in-law Lu's kindness. After eating a dumpling, she gave a thumbs up and praised, "Second Sister-in-law, these dumplings are really inherited from my aunt, and they are very delicious."

Lu Jiazong stood by, smiling more brightly than Second Sister-in-law Lu: "Yes, your Second Sister-in-law makes great dumplings. Everyone who has eaten them praises them and even brings their families to eat. Business is booming in the store now. We are too busy to handle it, so we asked Shanzi and his wife to come as well."

Because the business was good, the couple was too busy to take care of it, so they called Shanzi and his wife over. Of the three sons, Shanzi came to help them with the work, Taozi went to work at the Railway Bureau, and Lu Yun stayed to take care of grandparents. But they also told them that when Uncle Lu and Aunt Lu came to Beijing next year, they could come with them.

When Lu Jiaxin heard that business was good, she was sincerely happy for them.

Mrs. Lu held Jiaxin's hand and said gratefully, "Jiaxin, this is all thanks to you. If you hadn't told us to buy a shop and a house when we had money, I wouldn't have been so cruel as to borrow money to buy this shop. Without the shop, I would still be setting up a stall with your second brother."

After saving such a large sum of money, the couple was in a dilemma. They wanted to buy a small house in the old city to have a place to stay, and they also wanted to go home to build a house, but they never thought of buying a shop. The main reason was that the shop was small and expensive, and they felt it was not cost-effective.

After listening to Lu Jiaxin's suggestion, they bought a shop, and then the couple discussed and decided to sell noodles and pancakes. Because the decoration would take more than half a month, Lu Ersao went back to her hometown to learn from her mother-in-law.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the restaurant opened, everyone loved to eat her dumplings. Because the business was so good, she could work for one month and make as much as she did in two months before, without being exposed to the sun and rain. She was confident that with this noodle shop, she could buy houses for her three sons in Beijing.

Lu Jiaxin dared not take credit for it. The store was earned by her and her husband through hard work. "Second brother, second sister-in-law, it's too hard to be busy from morning till night. Money is earned slowly, and health is the most important thing."

Mrs. Lu said with a smile on her face, "Xiao Qiu was afraid that we would be tired, so she took the initiative to invite an aunt. The dumplings will be made a day in advance and put in the refrigerator. Shanzi and the aunt will sell them in the morning, and your second brother and I will sell them at noon and in the evening. It won't be tiring."

As for Shanzi's wife, since the third child was only four months old and still breastfeeding, she stayed at home to take care of the child and cook. As for the clothes, they were washed by Lu's wife, because she didn't want her to be too tired.
