Chapter 56 Government Building Demolished
In the living room, Liang Jingxuan sat on the sofa, staring at the TV. Lu Sui held a bowl and fed him rice and vegetables. Three little rabbits were jumping around the two of them.
When Lu Jun came back from using the restroom, he saw Lu Sui feeding Liang Jingxuan again and said with a stern face, "Xuanbao, you are not allowed to watch TV anymore. Eat by yourself!"
Liang Jingxuan nodded heavily, "Okay!" He took the bowl and chopsticks from Lu Sui's hand, stopped watching TV, and focused on eating. Lu Sui curled his fingers, hesitated, and finally took them back.
The soldier knocked on the cigarette stem, and the cigarette slag fell to the ground. He said seriously,
"You can spoil Xuanbao, but you can't let him not know how to dress and eat. When he first came, your aunt was used to him just like you. I taught him for a long time before he could do it on his own. Don't let me go back to the days before liberation again overnight."
Lu Sui's eyes flashed with surprise, "Yes..." Then she asked in a reproachful tone, "Why didn't you teach me these before?"
The Army officer glanced at him and said, "I was a jerk before. What did I teach you? Gambling? Mahjong? Or drinking?"
Lu Sui, "..."
Lu Jun pulled the corner of his mouth, with a smile in his eyes, but pretended to be serious and said, "Besides, your aunt taught you very well, why should I interfere?"
Lu Sui sneered, "You are quite self-aware!"
"Of course!" Lu Jun said, then felt something was wrong, "Are you mocking me?" Lu Sui snorted coldly, "Aren't you good at strategizing? Guess!"
Lu Jun was holding a cigarette and was about to scold him, but Liang Jingxuan held up an empty bowl and said, "Uncle, I'm done eating. I ate it all!" Lu Sui raised the corner of his mouth, took the bowl and chopsticks from his hand, wiped the rice off his mouth, stood up and strode to the kitchen.
The army gnashed their teeth and said, "Cut the old shell..."
Liang Jingxuan poked his palm and said in a low voice, "Second Uncle, you can't scold my husband. If you scold him, you are scolding me. I am his wife..."
Army, "..."
She raised her hand and scratched his nose, "You little heartless bastard!"
Liang Jingxuan smiled and hugged him, "I have a conscience! I am your sweetheart~"
Lu Jun's hands froze for a moment, and he hugged the swaying Liang Jingxuan, "Yes, my little darling! How can I live without you..."
"Lu Jun, what do you think, should we kill the pig?" Song Huizi pushed the door open with a conflicted look on her face.
Lu Jun anxiously helped Liang Jingxuan sit down, "Didn't I tell you... don't kill him!"
Song Huizi lifted the lid of the stove and added a small shovel of coal inside. "But every family in the village has killed pigs, and Xiao Sui has returned this year..."
"You don't have to kill it, just buy some meat to eat. If you kill the pig, you have to ask for help and return it to the owner. It's so troublesome... And you have to get up so early to boil water. I can't get up. If you want to kill it, you can get up and boil water yourself. I won't shave the pig's hair. I'm not in good health. I want to lie down..."
What Lu Jun fears most is trouble. He just wants to lie comfortably on the bed, cross his legs and smoke.
Song Huizi pulled his ear and said, "Say it again if you can!"
The army's face was wrinkled with pain. "I was wrong... I was wrong! Kill, kill, kill! I'll go get some help, I'll get up and boil some water, I'll shave the pig's hair!"
Song Huizi let go of his ear, "That's better! Xuanbao loves to eat meat. If we kill it, not only can we eat it during the New Year, but we can also eat it for a long time. We can marinate it with salt, soy sauce, and peppercorns, and then roast it and it can last until the next year!"
The Army rubbed his ears and said angrily, "Okay! Kill!"
Lu Sui came out after washing the dishes, "Xiao Sui, will you and Xuanbao come back from the brick factory tonight?" Song Huizi asked.
Recently, people have been coming to steal scrap iron. The workers' dormitory will not be built until next year. There is no one guarding it except Lao Ma, but he can't manage such a large brick factory and quarry by himself.
"I'm not coming back. I'll be back tomorrow morning!"
"That's great. Buy some more salt, peppercorns, and soy sauce. We're going to kill a pig the day after tomorrow!"
Lu Sui responded, "Okay!"
The sky was gray. Lu Sui got into the car, fastened his seat belt, and started the engine. "Wait!" The army soldier at the door looked back vigilantly. Song Huizi was in the kitchen. She quickly ran to the car window and secretly handed him a bank card.
Lu Sui recognized the bank card Liang Yan left behind. Lu Jun lowered his voice and said, "Go check how much money is in it? I think... there should be at least 2 million. If there is more than 2 million, buy me a pack of cigarettes!"
Lu Sui frowned with anger in his eyes, "You...didn't I just give you 100 yesterday? It's enough for you to buy two packs of cigarettes!"
When the soldier is mentioned, his face becomes gloomy, "Bad luck, I lost all my money playing mahjong!"
Lu Sui looked at him coldly and put the card into her wallet, "Got it..."
The sky was dark, and there was a dead silence on both sides of the desolate road...
Liang Jingxuan fell asleep in the back seat holding the little rabbit. His long eyelashes cast a faint shadow like a small fan. The hat on his head was crooked and his ears were swinging. The little rabbit jumped onto his shoulder and bit the ear of the hat.
Liang Jingxuan frowned and opened his eyelids, "Ah...husband...Rabbit bit my ear, no, it bit the ear of the hat!"
The little rabbit was frightened by him and jumped down. Lu Sui glanced at the rearview mirror and asked, "Are you still biting me now?"
Liang Jingxuan stuck his butt out to catch the rabbit, "The rabbit ran away!" The little rabbit hid in the gap of the base, "Don't move for now, wait until we get to the brick factory and the car is parked steadily, then catch it..."
Liang Jingxuan put his hat back on, "Okay..."
When they arrived at the brick factory, Lu Sui thought that they would have nothing to eat in the evening, so he drove to the town to buy some meat and oil, and also bought a pack of cigarettes. Liang Jingxuan wanted to eat spicy strips, but Lu Sui refused to buy him any, so he squatted on the ground holding the rabbit and refused to move.
"Can't I buy Jinwei?" Lu Sui's deep eyes were cold. Liang Jingxuan was like a mushroom, motionless, "I want both! Jinwei and spicy noodles!"
Lu Sui laughed angrily, "What if I don't buy it?"
"If you don't buy it, I will... I will..." Liang Jingxuan stood up holding the little rabbit, tiptoed, and kissed Lu Sui on the lips, "Please, husband... I will never play with your bird again..."
Lu Sui covered his mouth and said, "Buy!"
There is a bank next to the supermarket. Lu Sui took out his wallet and bank card, and lowered his eyelids to hide the churning in his eyes. There were many people queuing at the bank, all of them were elderly people.
After waiting for half an hour, Lu Sui finally arrived. I handed the card into the counter window and asked, "What do you want to do?"
"Can you help me check how much money is in the card?"
"Okay! Please wait a moment..." After the operation, he said, "Please enter the password!"
After entering the password, I waited for less than half a minute. The counter clerk scanned the screen and said, "Hello, you have 10 million in this card. Do you want to withdraw it?"
Lu Sui's pupils shrank in fear, "10 million!"
"Yes!" There were not many people in the bank. Liang Jingxuan sat in the waiting area and ate spicy noodles. The little rabbit loved to jump around, so he stuffed it into the hood of his down jacket. But maybe the spicy noodles were too fragrant, and the little rabbit took a bite while he was not paying attention, "Ah!!!"
Lu Sui ran over in a hurry with the card in hand. Liang Jingxuan pinched the little rabbit's mouth with tears in her eyes, "Honey, the rabbit stole my spicy noodles!!!"
On the way back, passing by the government building, the road ahead was blocked by a cordon. Lu Sui's eyes were covered with suspicion. He opened the car door and got out. He happened to meet a garbage collector, who took out a cigarette from his pocket and handed it to him.
"Master, why is this government building sealed off?"
The master took the cigarette and put it on his ear, "It's going to be taken down... so I sealed it up!"
Lu Sui's thin eyelids drooped, and he asked in a low voice, "Did it get demolished?"
The eldest master nodded, "Yes! They said there are more and more people, and the place is too small, so they demolished it and rebuilt it. It's really strange, I pick up garbage inside every day, and I don't see many officials coming to work, and now they say there are too many people!"
Lu Sui tightened his fingers slightly and clenched them into fists, his dark eyes revealing a cold look. His father died here, and it took him many years to dare to walk past here. The collapsed building was like a huge grave, and the dust in the air was like ashes from burnt paper money.
Lu Sui returned to the car with a dejected look on his face. "Honey...what's wrong with you?" Liang Jingxuan asked while holding the rabbit and tilting his head.
Lu Sui curled his lips and said, "Nothing..." His father's death has always been a mystery...
I started the engine and drove away for a while, then a black car followed in the dark.
Halfway through the journey, Liang Jingxuan suddenly shouted, "Husband! Stop the car..."
Lu Sui thought he was going to the restroom. As soon as the car stopped, Liang Jingxuan, without even holding her, unbuckled her seat belt and sat on his thighs, hugging his neck. "Let's make love. Brother Ying said that making love can make people happy!"
Lu Sui's eyes were full of scarlet blood, as if they were about to bleed, "Damn it! Yu Zeying!!!"
With a bitter smile, he touched Liang Jingxuan's forehead and said, "Don't do it yet. Get down. You are still young, and I am not unhappy!"
"Really?" Liang Jingxuan looked at him with tears in her eyes, "Really!"
Liang Jingxuan didn't believe it, so he held his face and kissed him hard on the lips.
Lu Sui grabbed his hand with a sinister look in his eyes, "Do you really want to be beaten?!"
Liang Jingxuan said aggrievedly, "No, you used to like me..."
Lu Sui was choked and speechless, "I... I..."
"What?" Liang Jingxuan sniffed. Lu Sui pinched the back of his neck and bit the tip of his nose viciously. "Wife, I'm really not unhappy!"
Liang Jingxuan reluctantly believed it, "Then if you are unhappy, you should tell me! I don't want you to frown all the time..."
Lu Sui raised the corner of his mouth, "Okay!"
When they arrived at the brick factory, Liu Shuanzi came over with a sad face as he was about to say something, "Boss... that..."
Lu Sui had a good bone structure and stern eyes. He stared at him silently without saying a word. Liu Shuanzi was a little frightened by his stare and stammered, "Well...someone came and said you robbed his wife...He came to look for his wife and is now in the office..."
