Chapter 807: Convergence
It’s only a matter of time before outsiders start to follow the crowd.
What outsiders think is not important at all.
They live a good life themselves, which is more real than anything else.
"Okay, I'll do as you say."
Fu Jingyou breathed a sigh of relief, his brows relaxed and softened, and he held her in his arms like a koala hanging on a big tree.
"It's better to talk things out, right?"
"……Um."
"Regarding Chen Xiangdong and Matou, whatever you say is fine. You will be in charge of all the arrangements from now on. If there is anything that cannot be resolved, I will come back."
Lu Miao pursed her lips and said "hmm" delicately.
Fu Jingyou patted her back and asked:
"Are you feeling better after crying?"
She buried her face in the side of his neck and pecked his head muffledly.
Fu Jingyou put on his clothes and stroked her wet and cold back with his palm:
"Then change your clothes and I'll use a hair dryer to blow dry your hair."
He made a move to stand up, but Lu Miao knelt on his legs and hugged him tightly, refusing to let go.
The last second they were arguing with each other and were talking about divorce and other things.
Now that things were out in the open, deep feelings and guilt were intertwined, and she clung to him like taffy.
Fu Jingyou was afraid that she would catch a cold, so he used his hands to hold open the clothes on her back that were wet by her hair, and coaxed her for a long time.
Only then did she obey and change into a clean jacket, then sit on the kang and let him blow her hair.
The quarrel was so fierce that the elders must have heard it clearly.
When Lu Miao calmed down, she realized she was embarrassed and was too ashamed to leave the room, so Fu Jingyou didn't let her go out either.
Fu Jingyou brought her drinking water, toothpaste and toothbrush for washing before bed into the room and let her brush her teeth in the room.
When sleeping at night, with a small fan on, Lu Miao rested her head on Fu Jingyou's arm, clinging tightly to him.
Fu Jingyou noticed her dependence, turned sideways and held her in his arms, kissing her from her forehead and nose to her soft lips.
"Sleep, huh?"
“Hmm…”
Lu Miao pecked his chin, made a vague "hmm" sound, and buried his whole little face in his arms, letting him pat him to sleep.
…
When I woke up the next day, the curtains were swaying in the wind, and scattered dazzling sunlight fell on my body, bringing a slight burning sensation.
Lu Miao stretched and sat up. There was no one around him. Fu Jingyou had gone to work in the morning.
There was nothing to do during the summer vacation, so she was the most free person in the family.
I could sleep until noon every day just like I do now.
She slowly got up, washed, and ate. Just as she sat down at the table, her father came back after sending the children to school.
As soon as Lu Yuanzheng saw her, he knew that she had just woken up.
Lu Yuanzheng next to him didn't say anything.
It was the same place where there was a commotion last night. Fu Jingyou was not at home at the moment, so Lu Yuanzheng said a few words to her:
"Don't take advantage of your parents being around and bully him when his parents aren't here. He's done enough. There's no one else like him out there."
"You're already a mother of several children. Control your temper and stop acting like a child..."
"Look, look, I just said a few words to you and you're already baring your teeth and grimacing again. Do you want to eat me, huh?"
Lu Miao puffed up his face in frustration, looked away, and ate porridge with the sound of "ding-dong" of the bowl and spoon, like the beating of drums.
She was dissatisfied with Lu Yuanzheng's preaching, but she listened to the scolding silently without saying anything back.
Her original intention was not to bully Fu Jingyou or make him upset.
But she was a little too emotional yesterday. She was so stubborn that she just wanted to vent her anger and almost bullied the child's father to tears...
Lu Miao still knew what kind of temper he had.
She also understood the elders' earnest intention in saying this.
In short, Lu Miao reflected silently for three seconds.
She said nothing, lowered her head and looked very obedient, which was very different from her usual appearance.
Lu Yuanzheng wondered if he had said something too harsh and wronged her.
Lu Yuanzheng couldn't bear it, so he felt in his pocket to try to find something to reward her and comfort her.
Unfortunately, voices suddenly came from the direction of the courtyard gate outside, and someone came home.
Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching, and the Xie family sent holiday gifts in advance, and the whole family came.
Lu Yuanzheng and Tang Mei invited everyone to sit down.
Lu Miao greeted them politely, "Uncle Xie, Aunt Xie," and then waved and looked at Gu Ying, who was shining brightly, and went into the room.
The small blanket on the kang had not been folded yet, so Lu Miao stretched out the blanket, folded it, and stacked it together with the pillow and pushed it to the inside.
Gu Ying saw it and said, "You just woke up?"
Lu Miao smiled at her with his lips curved, and without any embarrassment, he nodded directly:
"I didn't have much to do during the holiday, so I slept a little longer."
"very nice……"
Gu Ying sighed with emotion, feeling very envious.
During her vacation...well, let’s not talk about it.
After Lu Miao finished making the bed, he took her to sit down and asked:
"What's wrong? Why do you keep sighing?"
"nothing."
Gu Ying shook her head, smiled with her cheeks slightly puffed up, and placed her hand affectionately on hers, and told her another story:
"How's the store? You asked me to come before the opening, and I was going to come, but something unexpected got in the way."
"It's okay, the store is running normally, but I do have something to tell you."
Lu Miao leaned out and glanced outside.
The Xie family was all here, and she felt uneasy, so she simply pulled Gu Ying along, put on her sling and walked out:
"Let's talk about it somewhere else."
"Um?"
Gu Ying was confused.
Lu Miao said hello and said he would take Gu Ying over there and come back at lunchtime.
Tang Mei and Lu Yuanzheng waved their hands and let them go play.
Yang Yun saw this and turned to look at Xie Fei:
"Where are you going to play? We're all young people, why don't you go together? You won't be bored sitting here."
Lu Miao slowed down his pace and turned back to refuse, but Tang Mei spoke for him first:
"Why, they are all girls, what is he going to do?"
Yang Yun didn’t know which “over there” Lu Miao was talking about, but how could Tang Mei not know?
In the factory yard, there are either young girls or middle-aged women.
The ones she was fiddling with were all the hair ties girls use.
Xie Fei is a grown man, wouldn't he feel even more uncomfortable if he continued like that?
It would be better to talk to the elders here.
Seeing Tang Mei stop the person, Lu Miao didn't care anymore and just pulled Gu Ying away.
I had said before that I would take Gu Ying to visit the courtyard and the store, but probably because she had a lot of things to do in elementary school, Gu Ying was never free.
Gu Ying lives near the South Second Ring Road, which is quite far from here, so it’s hard to contact her during the holidays.
The last time we opened the business, it was Lu Miao and Lu Yuanzheng who asked for the phone number of Xie Zhengguo's unit.
I asked Xie Zhengguo to tell Gu Ying that I had something to discuss with her and asked her to come over.
The result was just as Gu Ying said just now, something got in the way and he was unable to come in the end.
This time when Gu Ying came, Lu Miao took her to the factory yard to get a good understanding of the situation.
The store's income and expenditure books were also spread out and explained to her in detail.
“The prospects are still good.”
Gu Ying looked at it and nodded, indeed.
It has been exactly ten days since the opening. Although the account book only covers the previous week, the revenue has reached nearly three hundred yuan, which is indeed a lot of money.
Gu Ying put down the account book and looked at Lu Miao:
"You just said you had something to tell me, what was it?"
