Chapter 129 No conscience
Xu Rongrong is not a fool.
She has nothing now, and even has the trouble of her original family. If it were an ordinary person, no one would be willing to help her.
It doesn't mean that not helping is not kind, but sometimes kindness also requires taking care of oneself first. If it were Xu Rongrong herself, she might not be willing to help a relative with whom she is not close.
No one likes to get into trouble.
But Zhu Suisui still helped her. Even though it was just a small favor, it saved Xu Rongrong's life.
Now that Zhu Suisui wants to ask her for help, Xu Rongrong would have to be an extremely selfish person to refuse.
She was now worrying about being useless and not knowing how to repay Zhu Suisui in the future. Now that she had such an opportunity, Xu Rongrong was naturally happy.
She hurriedly said, "Cousin, how could I not be willing? Just leave this matter to me."
Xu Rongrong knew very well that if a person only knew how to ask for things but not how to give back, then even the closest relationship would have a gap, just like what happened between herself and the Xu family.
Seeing that Xu Rongrong agreed to his request very readily, Zhu Suisui realized that he had helped her out of compassion and had not thought about any reward. But that's probably how people are. When they get a reward, they will feel relieved, at least they did not choose the wrong person, nor did they help the wrong person.
Zhu Suisui said, "Even if you are helping me, you have to take care of yourself first. I heard from Lan Xu that you are planning to leave on Tuesday. Do you have a good place to go?"
Xu Rongrong smiled and said, "My brother-in-law has already arranged it for me."
Lu Lan preface?
Zhu Suisui was a little surprised, "Where did he arrange for you to go?"
"He said that he had a friend who was staying at a guesthouse in the county town, and asked me to find this friend after I escaped, and he would then arrange a place for me to stay." Xu Rongrong did not hide anything, and naturally told Zhu Suisui everything she knew.
Zhu Suisui guessed that this friend was most likely Yao Yu.
Originally, she didn't want to let Lu Lanxu get involved, but now that he has helped, she will not be ungrateful.
Zhu Suisui thought for a moment, then took out five large group notes from his pocket and stuffed them into Xu Rongrong's hand. "I know you don't have any money, so don't reject me. This is my investment in you. When you make money, you can return it to me."
However, Xu Rongrong refused to take it and returned the money.
"My brother-in-law said that after I find that friend, he will arrange a job for me. There will be food and accommodation, and I won't have much to spend money on. So, cousin, I don't need to borrow this money from you. I want to earn it through my own labor."
It is better to teach a man to fish than to give him a fish.
Zhu Suisui once again expressed his admiration for Lu Lanxu's thoughtfulness in doing things.
Obviously Xu Rongrong had no relationship with him, but he was still able to be so attentive. No wonder he had been the manager favored by the Lu family since he was a child.
Zhu Suisui had no choice but to take the money back.
Before leaving.
Xu Rongrong seemed to have thought of something and said, "Uncle has been running away for the past two years. I don't know what he is doing. I don't know if this has anything to do with him looking for you and your brother-in-law to have dinner with him."
"Going out? Every few days or occasionally?" Zhu Suisui had to figure this out. If he only ran out occasionally, then it was possible that he was going to pick up Xu Xiayan's telegram or something like that, which also made sense.
Xu Rongrong recalled, "When Sister Yanyan was still alive, my uncle and aunt went directly to the county town to accompany her to study in order to take care of her. They almost never came back. At that time, my grandmother's heart was also on Sister Yanyan, so she asked my second uncle and my father to take out their money and give it all to my uncle's family. Later, Sister Yanyan passed the exam, and my uncle and aunt came back. However, my uncle would be away for half a month every month, and sometimes it would be my aunt who would go out."
"Didn't my grandma say anything about me going out so often?" Zhu Suisui was a little confused.
After all, the Xu family has never split up, so if there is any movement in any family, Mrs. Xu will definitely know about it.
Xu Rongrong thought about it and shook her head. "My uncle should have talked to my grandma. Anyway, my mom was unhappy that my uncle and aunt were not at home doing farm work. She said a few words and my grandma scolded her. She said that they had a golden daughter who was admitted to university and would take the Xu family to the city in the future. If my mom said anything else, she would not be able to stay in the city. My dad scolded my mom after hearing it, and then people at home got used to it."
If even Xu Rongrong's parents didn't dare to ask, Xu Rongrong naturally wouldn't dare to ask either.
Zhu Suisui was thoughtful after hearing this, and then said, "Rongrong, if your uncle or aunt goes out, come and tell me."
Xu Rongrong nodded.
When we came back from the chat, the lights in the house were off.
Zhu Suisui tiptoed back to the room. As soon as she entered the room, she saw Lu Lanxu still sitting at the desk, writing or drawing in her hands, still holding her review materials.
After hearing the noise, he put down his pen and looked at Zhu Suisui, "I annotated some knowledge points for you. How was your chat with Rongrong?"
"Since you've helped her so much, she won't refuse me." Zhu Suisui walked in, found the teacup with ease, poured herself a cup of hot water, and then looked at Lu Lanxu, "Lanxu, thank you for Rongrong's matter."
Lu Lanxu replied: "There is no need for such formalities between husband and wife. Rongrong is your sister, so she is naturally mine too."
Zhu Suisui was somewhat moved, but after hesitating for a moment, he said, "Lan Xu, I know that what I said may be a little ignorant, but I hope that next time you want to help me, you can tell me first."
Zhu Suisui didn't want to rely on Lu Lanxu for everything. Since she had agreed to this matter, she had the ability to handle it. If Lu Lanxu had to handle it in the end, she would still be the same as in her previous life, with no improvement at all.
Hearing this.
Lu Lanxu paused, then looked at Zhu Suisui with clear eyes, "I will slowly change this, but Suisui, if you have anything in the future, can you tell me first?"
What does it mean?
Zhu Suisui was confused. "What do you mean?"
"Think about it carefully." Lu Lanxu didn't say it directly. He hoped that Zhu Suisui could understand it himself.
Zhu Suisui frowned.
baffling!
These words made Zhu Suisui unable to sleep well the whole night.
I kept thinking over and over, wondering what was going on.
Finally, Lu Lanxu pulled her into his arms and forced her to sleep.
"If you can't figure it out, forget it. It's not a very important thing anyway."
Zhu Suisui's face was buried in Lu Lanxu's chest, and he couldn't help rolling his eyes after hearing this.
It's an unimportant matter, but you speak so righteously about it. Doesn't that show that you care a lot?
Zhu Suisui decided not to think about it anymore. After all, it was Lu Lanxu who was upset, not her.
The most urgent task at the moment is to find out what Uncle Xu wants to do.
Zhu Suisui stopped thinking and quickly fell asleep.
Listening to the long breathing sounds beside her ears, Lu Lanxu opened her deep eyes, a trace of helplessness flashed across her eyes.
He is such a heartless person.
