Director Zhou's eyelids twitched when he heard her speaking in an old-fashioned way.
But Uncle Zhou didn't mind at all. He looked at Xia Lu with concern and said, "Okay, come in, let's talk alone. All of you go out and stay away. Don't eavesdrop."
Zhou's father immediately asked his son to leave.
Wait till everyone leaves.
Uncle Zhou looked at Xia Lu, shocked and heartbroken. "Where are the children? Why didn't the two children come? And you, how did you get yourself into this state?"
Back then, Xia Lu was the most beautiful girl on Qinhuai Street. Now, she has all the white hair and looks listless.
Xia Lu smiled and said, "Why do you look like that? What have I done to me? I didn't bring them here. The thing I want to tell you cannot be known to that child."
Uncle Zhou felt a little sad. "If I had known that you were living like this here, I would not have let you go. Jiang Ke must have felt so sad when he saw this."
"Why don't you take the child and go to Qin City with me."
"No." Xia Lu refused directly: "You can't take care of yourself. You will die in a few years. You remember Jiang Ke and my kindness, but it doesn't mean your son and daughter-in-law will remember it. I am a woman with two children living with you. If your daughter-in-law has any misunderstandings, it will tarnish my reputation. I came here to ask you for a favor."
...
...
Uncle Zhou had a toothache. "You little bastard, you're still as outspoken as ever. What's the matter?"
Xia Lu took out a letter, "This..."
“I don’t feel comfortable leaving it to anyone else.”
"Why don't you give it to your parents-in-law..."
"My parents-in-law are nice people, but they are the parents-in-law of the fifth branch of the Qin family, not just my parents-in-law." Xia Lu said, "There are two letters in total. One is for you. You can open it after returning to Qin City. After you open the other one, you will know that it is related to our two children. Keep it well."
Uncle Zhou said solemnly, "Don't worry, if you don't want to go to Qin City with me, and you're afraid it will damage your reputation, why don't I take one of the two children with me?"
Xia Lu refused and said, "Without a father and a brother, it's just right for the two sisters to depend on each other. It's not good to separate them by force. Fei can be Fei's motivation, and Fei can protect Fei! If you have the heart, just help me take care of her secretly. That's right..."
"Old Tu, do you have any connections in Central City?"
"What's wrong?"
"There is a child named Zhuang Mingshou. He might get into trouble. If you have any connections, see if you can use them to help me save his life at the critical moment. He is my godson. Do it if you can. If you can't, don't force yourself. You are already old, don't try to show off." Xia Lu said.
"Okay, I'll take note of it." Uncle Zhou took note of it without thinking twice. He felt guilty now and hoped that Xia Lu would ask for more to relieve his guilt for not keeping his promise. He carefully suggested, "Xia Lu, Jiang Ke has been gone for a few years, and you are alone with your children. You have never thought about... How about I introduce you to a few good guys, all of whom are one in a million! And they are handsome, tall, and have good figures." He said tentatively.
"Okay." Xia Lu agreed immediately.
Uncle Zhou was delighted.
Xia Lu said cheerfully, "If you can find someone who treats me as well as Jiang Ke does, who gives me ninety-nine out of a hundred, who drinks the soup while I eat the meat buns, who carries me across puddles on rainy days to keep my shoes from getting wet, who washes and combs my hair, and who cries like a baby when I'm sick, I have no objection."
Uncle Zhou: “…”
Back in the 1990s, she became rich through scientific research
