Lu Jiaxin fired the three strong men hired by He Bin. She generously gave them a full month's salary, and the three men left happily.

After dinner, Lu Jiaxin and Xing Ziyang said, "The two cleaners we hired were fired by Aunt Mei this morning, so we have to find new ones. I'd like to trouble you guys to clean the house during this time."

Xing Ziyang agreed immediately.

Lu Jiaxin hired six bodyguards, two caregivers, two cooks and two helpers for Gu Xiuxiu, plus an assistant for Mei Gu, a total of thirteen people.

After giving the list to Aunt Mei, Lu Jiaxin said, "If there is a shortage of people, talk to Tong Yu and then go recruit. There are many people in Sijiu City but few jobs, so it is relatively easy to recruit people."

Mei Gu hesitated and said, "Miss cousin, aren't these people's salaries too low?"

The six bodyguards we hired made less than HK$1,000 per month, and the nurses and chefs earned less than half of the salary of similar professions in Hong Kong.

Lu Jiaxin smiled and said, "Auntie Mei, this is the old city, and the consumption level is much lower than in Hong Kong. With 150,000 Hong Kong dollars a month, you can live like a god here."

All the expenses such as the salaries and benefits of these personnel were paid from Gu Xiuxiu's monthly living expenses. In Hong Kong City, such a large living expense was enough to live comfortably, not to mention in the Forbidden City.

If labor costs and prices are so cheap, living here can save a lot of money. Of course, saving money is secondary. The key is that there is a lot of space for activities here, so the old lady doesn't have to stay in the back garden all day.

Lu Jiaxin said: "If my aunt is happy living here and is willing to come and stay for a while every year, I will buy a big car then, so that it will be more convenient for traveling."

Seeing that she had considered every aspect, Mei Gu was very touched.

At around seven o'clock, Lu Jiaxin received a call from Su Hongying: "Jiaxin, I just heard from He Yuan that you are back. Come to my house for dinner tomorrow."

Lu Jiaxin politely declined: "Aunt Su, I'm sorry, I have to go to class the day after tomorrow, and I have to take a plane back to Hong Kong City tomorrow morning. I came back in a hurry this time. I arrived at noon yesterday, and then I was busy until after five in the afternoon."

"What are you busy with?"

"My aunt came with me this time. She will stay in Sijiu City for a while, and I have to make all the arrangements. She went to visit the graves again this morning, and she was busy like a top."

Su Hongying said: "Then I will go to visit Ms. Gu tomorrow."

Lu Jiaxin did not refuse. She knew all about her aunt's situation, so she just needed to tell Aunt Mei to pay attention to it tomorrow morning.

"So when will you come back next time?"

"I'll be back in July."

Su Hongying smiled and said, "Jiaxin, you must come to our house for dinner when you come back in July, otherwise Aunt Su will be unhappy."

"I will definitely go."

The next morning, Lu Jiaxin gave Su Hongying's phone number to Mei Gu and told her, "If you can't find me and my eldest brother can't solve the problem, call this number."

As long as it does not violate any law or regulations, Su Hongying will help, but she would avoid favors like this if possible.

Just as she was about to go out, Lu Jiajie came unexpectedly: "Jiaxin, I'm here to see you off."

Lu Jiaxin did not refuse. This year, not only did the two children become more sensible, but Lu Jiajie also became more mature and responsible than before.

"Let's go!"

On the way to the airport, Lu Jiajie briefly talked about his experiences in the past six months.

When we arrived at the airport, Lu Jiaxin said, "In the old city, make more time to spend with the children. With good weather like today, you can take them to the park to enjoy the spring and fly kites."

Parents' divorce has a great impact on children. Her parents divorced when she was in college, but it took her a long time to accept the fact. But every time she sees her parents with their children when she goes out, she will remember the happy time of the three of them when she was a child.

Lu Jiajie nodded repeatedly.

Two days later, Lu Jiazong and Lu Ersao went to talk to Lu Hongjun about the house: "Jia Xin said that the house should be given to Shanzi and his family, so that it will be convenient for the children to go to school."

There is a primary school and a kindergarten nearby. Niuniu is going to primary school and Goudan is going to kindergarten. As for what to do if they can't get in, we will figure it out after we move in.

Lu Hongjun doesn't like Lu Ersao, and the house is now occupied by Huang Jianshe and his wife, so how can he give it to Shanzi? "The house in the family building is mine. I let Jianshe live in it, so let him live in it."

Mrs. Lu directly countered: "The house in the family building is yours, that's true, but you and Jiaxin signed an agreement. Jiaxin said that if you violate the agreement, she will sell the house, so you can only move back to the family building."

Lu Hongjun's face turned red with anger.

Lu Jiazong suddenly said, "Uncle San, Shanzi is our Lu family's eldest grandson, and Goudan is also our Lu family's great-grandson. Would you rather give the house to outsiders than to our Lu family's eldest grandson and great-grandson?"

"Uncle San, when you go underground a hundred years later, aren't you afraid that the ancestors of the Lu family will blame you?"

Mrs. Lu looked at Lu Jiazong in shock. This was her honest husband? How could he say such a meaningful thing?

After a while, Lu Hongjun said, "I'll go back and discuss with Sufen to see if we can get Jianshe to vacate the house."

Lu Jiazong nodded and said, "Nannan will be in the first grade next semester, and Goudan will also go to kindergarten. Third uncle, we don't know anyone, can you see if you can find someone to help the two children go to school."

Lu Hongjun waved his hand and said, "I understand. You guys should go back quickly!"

After leaving the alley, Mrs. Lu lowered her voice and asked, "Who taught you these words?"

Lu Jiazong said, "No one taught them. Shanzi and Goudan are the eldest grandsons and great-grandsons of the Lu family. Wife, Third Uncle still cares about the bloodline and inheritance of the Lu family. In the future, don't confront him. It's not good for us."

Mrs. Lu asked with a wary look on her face: "What do you want to do?"

Lu Jiazong did not hide it and said, "I want what my third uncle has. Wife, I don't have the ability of my eldest brother and Jiajie, but I have three sons..."

Mrs. Lu immediately understood that he still wanted to adopt the child, so she said, "It's not like you didn't hear what Jiaxin said, so let's forget about it."

"If I don't fight for it, the Huang family will get the upper hand."

"But the problem is, even if we are willing to adopt a son under the name of the third wife, he may not give the things to our son. And with that kind of personality, I am afraid that it will bring trouble to the child."

What Lu Jiazong meant was, how can we know it won’t work without trying?

Mrs. Lu knew she couldn't persuade him, so she said, "It's up to you, but you must make sure that our child won't be implicated, otherwise I will never forgive you."

"Don't worry, I can still trick our son."
