Chapter 147: Blessings
"What's wrong? Isn't it sweet enough?" Chen Xiaohong also took a piece and tasted it. She jumped up and spat on the ground. "I mistook salt for sugar. Oops, it's awful. I'll wash this plate and put more sugar in it for myself. I'll make it again for you."
"Don't bother, let's just eat together." Su Jiaojiao went back to the house, rinsed her mouth, took out a bag of broad bean paste, squeezed it into the plate, took two cucumbers from the vegetable basket, found a bunch of lettuce, washed it, and these two vegetables were delicious with the sauce. "I went to the provincial capital and brought back some T-shirts. I'm selling them to you. Not many, only 200 pieces. I made an order for leather clothes at the Natus Leather Factory. I can't sell these goods these days. You can sell them yourself!"
Chen Xiaohong said "oh" and continued fiddling with her sugar-coated tomatoes.
Su Jiaojiao put down her chopsticks, went into the house, took out the short-sleeved shirt she brought back from the provincial capital, and asked Chen Xiaohong to try it on: "I bought it in the provincial capital."
"Thank you, you're so kind to me." Chen Xiaohong washed the tomato slices, sprinkled some sugar on them, and then busied herself trying on the short-sleeved shirt Su Jiaojiao gave her. She was so happy that she looked at Su Jiaojiao and chuckled, "Jingjiao, whoever marries you must have been blessed in their previous life. You're good at making money and easy to support. You can eat a lot with just a handful of lettuce. If I were a man, I would definitely marry you."
"Stop messing around, I'm talking to you about serious business!" Su Jiaojiao said calmly, "I'll still sell them for fifteen yuan each. Take your time and they should be sold out by summer vacation."
She won't sell anymore after she sells this batch of goods.
She concentrated on making leather jackets, and when the weather got cold, she would go to Hualian Shopping Mall to sell them. By then, Chen Guilan would have returned from the Jiali Garment Factory.
"I'm also talking about business!" Chen Xiaohong whistled, looked behind her, and smiled ambiguously, "Maybe the lucky person is here."
Su Jiaojiao followed her gaze and looked back, it was Chen Yi.
Chen Yi came to buy groceries and saw Su Jiaojiao eating. He came over and greeted her generously: "Why are you eating now?"
"I went out for a while and came back late." Su Jiaojiao had finished eating and was still holding a piece of lettuce in her hand. She stood up and walked to Chen Yi, "Why did you come out to buy vegetables just now?"
"I bought it now and we'll eat it tonight." The two had been sitting at the same table for several months and were familiar with each other. Chen Yi directly pulled out a printed math problem from his pocket and handed it to her. "This is the problem I compiled. Take a look at it when you have time. It may help you. The answers are on the back."
After school started, the two were no longer in the same class.
We can no longer see each other every day like before.
"Thank you." Su Jiaojiao took it and asked him, "What dishes do you want? I'll get them for you."
"No, I can do it myself." Chen Yi picked a few tomatoes, and Chen Xiaohong came over with a smile to help him weigh them. "Two yuan each, just give me two yuan. Remember to add sugar, not salt."
After hearing this, Chen Yi felt confused, but he didn't know what to say, so he quietly picked up the tomatoes and left.
"I should give you a commission. They came here for you." Chen Xiaohong patted Su Jiaojiao's shoulder. "From now on, you sell vegetables for me here and I'll give you a commission."
"Give me money!" Su Jiaojiao simply reached out to ask her for money.
Chen Xiaohong took the opportunity to hit her hand: "Keep the account!"
Old Zhao's wife, standing at the doorway opposite, saw Su Jiaojiao and Chen Xiaohong chatting and laughing while they sat there eating. She clicked her tongue and said, "This Jiaojiao can get along with anyone. Look, she's getting along really well with that scoundrel!"
In her eyes, Chen Xiaohong is just a second-rate person.
What decent woman would ride around the streets whistling on a motorcycle?
She had seen Chen Xiaohong like this.
Old Zhao didn't say anything.
It is foolish to comment on other women in front of your wife, especially those who are prettier than her.
Wang Hua sent Su Jiaojiao and Chen Xiaohong back to the snack street and went to the municipal government to explain why Century Garden was haunted. The municipal government had always supported the construction of Century Garden and immediately stated that as long as the problem could be solved, they agreed to remove the iron chains and replace them with wooden guardrails.
That night, Wang Hua called several owners to come and testify, and also specially invited people from the local TV station to go to the beach with him. In front of everyone, he personally removed the iron chain. As a matter of fact, after the iron chain was removed, the whimpering sound was no longer heard in Century Jiayuan.
Once the local TV station reported it, all the owners soon knew about it.
No one will cause trouble in Century Garden anymore.
Wang Hua breathed a sigh of relief and told Lu Jingyou the truth about what happened. When Lu Jingyou learned that it was Su Jiaojiao who helped solve the problem, his tone was unusually gentle: "I understand."
She is so smart, she will definitely be able to find the clues.
He was not surprised.
"Mr. Lu, Miss Su has been so helpful, and I haven't thanked her properly yet!" Wang Hua asked tentatively, "Should I treat her to a meal?"
"Don't worry about this." Lu Jingyou said in a calm tone, "There's no need to be so polite between her and me. Let's talk about it when I get back!"
"Okay..." Wang Hua didn't know what to say, and asked again, "Mr. Lu, when will you be back?"
How far has their relationship developed?
At least, in his opinion, Su Jiaojiao was still polite when meeting her leader.
He is still a student and it is obvious that he doesn't mean that.
"The old man's condition is still unstable. Let's wait a few days!" Lu Jingyou said without further ado, "I'm in the hospital now. I'll hang up first."
Lu Jiaping walked over, stood beside Lu Jingyou, and sighed: "I admit that I was impulsive, but your grandfather is too stubborn..."
Ever since Qin Xiuming came back, Wu Xinyue has been arguing with him every day, calling him a liar and a bastard.
He couldn't stand it anymore, so he filed for divorce.
Mr. Lu refused to let her leave, and she became so angry that she had a heart attack and was admitted to the hospital.
Fortunately, he was rescued without any danger.
Otherwise, he would really become a sinner!
"Uncle, don't mention divorce anymore." Lu Jingyou said expressionlessly, "My grandfather said a long time ago that men in the Lu family are not allowed to divorce. My parents haven't divorced in all these years!"
Mr. Lu and Mrs. Lu loved each other all their lives and never had a quarrel.
They are a fairy couple that everyone envies.
But the two sons they had lived in disharmony and chaos.
If Mr. Lu hadn't stopped them, Lu Jingyou's parents would have broken up long ago. The two of them were at loggerheads, and neither of them was willing to give in. Over the years, they had only maintained superficial harmony in front of outsiders.
I originally thought that Lu Jiaping's marriage was the most stable, but who knew that Qin Xiuming would appear halfway through, and his life began to become unstable.
Mr. Lu agreed to compensate Qin Shuang and Wu Xinyue, but he simply refused to allow Lu Jiaping and Wu Xinyue to divorce. Lu Jiaping got so excited that he talked back a few words, which made Mr. Lu so angry that he came to the hospital.
"My situation is different from your father's." Lu Jiaping rarely spoke from the heart to Lu Jingyou. "I feel sorry for Qin Shuang. I want to make it up to her. I don't mean to compensate her with money. I want to compensate her with the rest of my life. I can't let her wander around alone anymore."
"Uncle, as far as I know, Director Qin is not what you think. She definitely has no intention of marrying you." Lu Jingyou knew Qin Shuang. "If you believe me, then explain everything to Aunt and live a peaceful life. Otherwise, the consequences of this matter will be something you won't be able to bear."
When Qin Shuang had a car accident in his previous life, he was not in the imperial capital.
He didn't know the situation at the time, but he later learned that it was probably not an accident, but man-made.
Lu Jiaping said nothing more.
It’s okay if they don’t get divorced, he can just move out.
Whenever he was at home, Wu Xinyue would quarrel with him, and he was tired.
Lu Qingqing was also suffering. Since Qin Xiuming came, Lu Qingqing rarely came to the old house.
Moreover, she lived in her own home with her mother. After a long time, she could no longer bear the quarrels between Lu Jiaping and Wu Xinyue. She advised Wu Xinyue like a little adult: "Mom, please stop arguing with my dad. If you continue to argue, my dad will not come back."
