With his worries gone, Lu Jiang became even more cheerful.
When he reached out to pick up his chopsticks, Zhao Yong noticed the watch on his wrist and exclaimed, "You changed your watch? This watch is not cheap. When did you buy it? I didn't notice you wearing it before."
Seeing the watch on his hand, Lu Jiang smiled tenderly and said proudly, "My girlfriend gave it to me."
Guo Xiuying looked over and recognized the brand of the watch at a glance. She also remembered the price and said, "Huh? So your girlfriend's family is well-off? But I heard from your brother Yong that the report you submitted said that your girlfriend seems to be the daughter of a poor farmer? It seems that both her parents have passed away, and she is now living with her younger sister."
If that's the case, life must be very difficult. How can I afford to buy a watch? And such an expensive imported one.
Lu Jiang came back to his senses and quickly added: "What the report said is true. The money for the watch should be a gift from my father."
This was the statement to the outside world, which he had discussed with Feng Qingxue.
Lu Jiang didn't want people to think that Feng Qingxue relied on him for her living, so he explained, "However, my girlfriend is very smart and capable. She and her sister live very well. Now, with the care of my comrades, she can often get some scarce supplies. Although I left her some money and tickets before I came, many supplies cannot be bought even with money and tickets."
"That's right. We know it best. There is an alarming shortage of supplies outside right now. Your boyfriend is really capable." People who are able to get supplies will never lack money to spend, and their lives will not be too difficult.
After hearing what Zhao Yong said, Lu Jiang smiled slightly.
Guo Xiuying said, "We should be more careful in the future. It's enough for our family members to know about it. If too many people know about it, it will cause trouble. Life is difficult now, who doesn't want to get more food?"
"I know, sister-in-law. I will write a letter to Qingxue later to remind her."
Just like what Guo Xiuying thought, Lu Jiang knew that in this era, keeping a low profile was the best way to protect himself.
When he mentioned the word "Qingxue", he was afraid that Zhao Yong and Guo Xiuying didn't know who she was, so he said, "Qingxue is my girlfriend, her last name is Feng."
"Feng Qingxue? This name is very elegant, as if it was chosen by a scholar." Guo Xiuying praised, "I really want to meet your partner, she must be a gentle and beautiful girl."
Lu Jiang nodded heavily, "Qingxue is just as sister-in-law said, I will definitely bring her to see sister-in-law if I have the chance."
After dinner, Lu Jiang said goodbye.
While packing her things, Guo Xiuying said to Zhao Yong, "Dad likes peanuts the most, but there is only a small supply throughout the year. Don't eat the remaining peanuts. Send them to dad. Mom has bad teeth, so send the fine flour and rice that Lu Jiang sent to her, as well as bacon and sausages, so that our parents can have a few meals of fine grains with some oil."
After listening to this, Zhao Yong nodded.
"Okay! You can keep some of the dried fruits and preserves for tasting, and send the rest over so that our children can have something to eat."
Now, even the spoiled children in their family seldom have snacks and are lucky enough to be full. When they finally have something delicious, the first thing they think of is definitely the elderly and children.
Guo Xiuying also had this idea and said with a smile: "I have to say, Lu Jiang and his girlfriend are really generous."
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
"That's true. Even if a stingy person has the ability and things, he would not be willing to give so much away. It's not that people of the family are alike. The people of the Lu family are very generous in doing things."
