Chapter 498: Keep the wealth within the family
Ever since Chen Guilan came, Su Jiaojiao has felt more relaxed.
Chen Guilan can make the decision on any matter at Wudaokou, so she doesn't have to worry about it. Cai Ting can also work independently in the new factory. Although she and Marco Bojihong have some bumps in their relationship, they still cooperate well at work.
Once people are in a good mood, the sky will appear bluer and the flowers will appear redder.
The Peking University campus is also very beautiful in July. Although the weather is hot, the campus is shaded by green trees, with red flowers and green willows, and the scenery is unique.
After attending the school social, Su Jiaojiao didn't rush home. She chatted with Tang Ling and Du Bingqian for a while, had dinner together, and the three of them strolled around the campus again.
Ever since Su Jiaojiao moved back to Jinyuan, she almost leaves as soon as class is over. She tries not to participate in school activities if possible, and only goes if she really can't refuse. She spends very little time with them.
The three of them strolled around, chatted for a while, and then went their separate ways. Tang Ling and Du Bingqian returned to the dormitory. When Su Jiaojiao passed by the lotus pond, she stopped to look at the koi with interest.
They hadn't been together for a long time, and the three of them didn't have much to talk about. It was just about where to go for summer vacation. Su Jiaojiao had a lot of things to do during the summer vacation and couldn't join them.
After class, Lu Qingqing walked out with her schoolbag on her back. She saw Su Jiaojiao standing on a rock by the lotus pond, looking at the koi. After hesitating for a moment, she also walked over and said, "Hello, Sister Su, I'm Lu Qingqing."
The last time Lu Jingyou came to school to look for Su Jiaojiao, Lu Qingqing also saw him.
But they were having a quarrel at the time, so she stood far away and didn't go forward.
"Hello." Su Jiaojiao smiled. She knew that Lu Qingqing also went to school here, but she didn't expect to meet her here.
Lu Qingqing is quiet and well-behaved. She is wearing a white dress and stands tall and graceful.
She is the only girl in the Lu family. Old Mrs. Lu mentioned her several times in front of Su Jiaojiao, saying that she is well-behaved and sensible.
"Sister Su, can I talk to you for a few words?" Lu Qingqing mustered up her courage and said, "Let's go to the school cafe. I'll buy you a cup of coffee."
"Okay." Su Jiaojiao agreed happily.
After entering the cafe, the two found a seat by the window and sat down. Lu Qingqing asked Su Jiaojiao what she liked to drink. Su Jiaojiao ordered a latte, and Lu Qingqing also ordered a latte.
"Sister Su, I've actually been wanting to talk to you, but I just haven't had the chance." Lu Qingqing looked at Su Jiaojiao, her gaze lingering on her face for a few seconds before lowering her eyes. "I hope you'll forgive me if I disturbed you."
"You're so polite." Su Jiaojiao smiled. "I've always wanted to see you, too. I went to your house twice but didn't run into you. Just tell me what you want to say."
"I know you and my brother have known each other for a long time, and I know you're also familiar with my brother's mother." Lu Qingqing often heard Mrs. Lu praising Su Jiaojiao for being reasonable at home, which is why she wanted to talk to her. "Ever since my brother came back, my parents have been arguing all the time. This time, before my father disappeared, he was even threatening to divorce my mother. I don't want them to get divorced..."
Su Jiaojiao hadn't heard about Lu Jiaping and Wu Xinyue's divorce, but as soon as Lu Qingqing opened her mouth, she knew what she was going to say: "I understand you. No one wants their parents to get divorced."
If Su Houli had been a law-abiding man, Chen Guilan would not have divorced him. If her parents were in the capital to accompany her, she would have woken up laughing in her dreams.
"I often wonder if it's because Qin Shuang is pushing so hard that my dad wants to divorce my mom." Lu Qingqing's expression was gloomy. "I hope you can persuade Qin Shuang to let my dad go."
"Don't worry, your parents won't get divorced as long as your grandparents are around." Su Jiaojiao couldn't agree to Lu Qingqing, and she wouldn't really persuade Qin Shuang because of this matter.
Qin Shuang always said that she had no intention of marrying Lu Jiaping.
Even if there is, it is not something she can persuade.
"That's what I said, but my father ran away from home and didn't want me and my mother anymore." Lu Qingqing's eyes were red as she spoke. "I suspect my father is with Qin Shuang now..."
"I don't know about other things, but I'm sure your father isn't with her. I guess he's dealing with his own affairs." Su Jiaojiao comforted her, "I know you're sad, but this isn't something you can solve. You have to trust your grandpa and grandma."
"But I don't know what to do now..." Lu Qingqing sighed softly, "I can't help my father or my mother. I feel useless."
"Don't think like that. Their affairs have nothing to do with you. You have done a good job." After Lu Qingqing said this, Su Jiaojiao felt that she was more responsible than Qin Xiuming. At least, she dared to face these things and was not indifferent.
"Thank you for comforting me." Lu Qingqing had a smile on her face. Her eyebrows and eyes were curved when she smiled, and she looked a bit like Old Mrs. Lu.
Lu Jingyou came back on the weekend afternoon, and the first thing he did was to go to Jinyuan to visit his future mother-in-law.
Su Jiaojiao and Chen Guilan prepared dinner for him at home. He returned to the old house after dinner.
Lin Manli had been waiting for him at the old house. When she learned that he had returned from Jinyuan, she was very unhappy: "I had something to discuss with you, but you went to their house for dinner."
"I said I wouldn't be back for dinner while I was on the road." Lu Jingyou said disapprovingly, "What do you want from me?"
Lin Manli then told Lu Jingyou that the Kyoto Garment Factory was going to be transferred to an outsider: "Kyoto Garment Company is also an old factory that has been around for many years. You can make money if you take it over."
"Mom, why do I need a garment factory?" Lu Jingyou was puzzled. "Besides, I don't have any extra funds to do this. But don't worry about the transfer. I'll ask Jiao Jiao, she can do it."
"Why are you asking her?" Lin Manli looked at Lu Jingyou with dismay. "You are you, and she is she. You should turn around first, and then let her help with management."
Mr. Lu and Mrs. Lu looked at each other, and Mrs. Lu interrupted, "Jiaojiao is the most suitable person to take over Jingdu Clothing Company. Why should Jingyou take it over and then give it to Jiaojiao?"
"Mom, when Jingyou answers the phone, it's Jingyou's, and when Su Jiaojiao answers the phone, it's Su Jiaojiao's. How can they be the same?" Lin Manli felt that the old lady was just confused and couldn't react to such a simple thing.
"If that's what you think, why don't you take it over and then do a favor and let Jiaojiao help you take care of it? Wouldn't that be better?" Mrs. Lu understood Lin Manli's little thoughts. "Do you think that Su Jiaojiao can't think of what you can think of?"
"If I had money, I wouldn't ask Jingyou." Lin Manli didn't want to argue with the old lady about these useless things, and said to Lu Jingyou, "Think about it carefully. Even if you do nothing, that piece of land is still valuable."
"I know, that's why I want to discuss it with Jiaojiao and ask her if she wants to take over. It's better to keep the money within the family!" Lu Jingyou immediately called Su Jiaojiao to discuss the matter.
Lin Manli: “…”
