Chapter 12: Burnt on the outside and tender on the inside



"Ah? In the capital?" Now it was his turn to be surprised.

Lu Xiangxiang smiled and nodded: "Yes."

"What's the job?"

"At the Municipal Public Security Bureau." she said casually.

"Municipal Public Security Bureau? Oh my God, you actually work in the Municipal Bureau?" Now it was the family's turn to be surprised.

I didn't expect that Lu Xiangxiang would not only be assigned a job, but he could even be assigned a job within the system. Working in the Municipal Bureau is much better and more respectable than working outside.

"Hahaha, I didn't expect that it was so great that you found a job by yourself. Then Dad won't say anything more." This was an unexpected surprise.

His ability can only help her find a job in the city, but not a job within the system. After all, that requires some ability, and now there is a shortage of jobs. The work within the system is basically completed within their system, and others have never heard of recruitment. His influence is all in the military, and he has no connections in the public security system.

"It's okay." She nodded and took something to eat.

"This way our family will never have to be separated," he sighed.

"What do you mean by never parting? I'll pick up grandma after things are settled."

She casually dropped a bombshell, shocking Liang Huifen to the point of being completely burnt on the outside and tender on the inside.

What does it mean to bring grandma over? Which old person is she going to bring over?

"No." Liang Huifen was the first to speak. Her words seemed to break the silence, and Lu Yuantao came back to his senses: "Think about it, your grandmother is old, and the journey will tire her out. Besides, there's no one to talk to here, and she won't be used to it. It's better for her to stay in the countryside."

"Dad, she's old, and grandpa passed away early. Although it's good in the village, it's pretty boring for her to be alone at home. She only has you as her son, and she must be so happy to be with you."

Lu Yuantao actually wanted to bring his mother over. With his own ability, he could already provide his family with a comfortable life, not to mention that Liang Huifen also had a salary and could support his mother alone.

Seeing that her husband was persuaded, Liang Huifen couldn't help but reach out and pinch him. Seeing that Lu Yuantao hadn't reacted yet, she pinched him even harder.

Lu Yuantao's expression was distorted, but he didn't howl.

"No, no, no." Lu Yuantao quickly refused.

"What do you mean?" She didn't miss Liang Huifen's actions: "Is it Auntie who doesn't want Grandma to come?"

"That's not..."

"That's right!" Liang Huifen spoke, and the couple finally spoke in unison.

Lu Yuantao looked at his wife in disbelief. Why did she admit it? What good would it do for her to admit it? At this moment, he felt a little disappointed in her.

"You're glaring at me? I tell you, before we got married, I told you that you wouldn't live with your mother, and you agreed. What? Now you want to go back on your word?" Liang Huifen didn't give him any face, and didn't hide anything from Lu Xiangxiang.

She really didn't want to live with her mother-in-law, and she said it very clearly.

"My mother is also your mother. She is old now."

"He's only about sixty years old, and still very healthy."

Lu Yuantao tugged at her clothes and winked, "Think about it, you're still here."

Liang Huifen glanced at Lu Xiangxiang and said, "Anyway, that's what your father said."

"Auntie, I brought grandma here to live with me, not with you." Lu Xiangxiang said.

Now the two stopped arguing and looked at her: "What do you mean?"

"It means literally that Auntie doesn't like being with Grandma, and Grandma also said she doesn't want to be with you." Her words made Liang Huifen a little unhappy.

What? You still don't like her? Haha, you said it as if she doesn't dislike it. We are all country bumpkins.

Liang Huifen was angry and wanted to say something, but Lu Yuantao stopped her and looked at her warningly.

Lu Yuantao is very scary when he is angry, and she has known this deeply over the years.

So she stopped talking and snorted through her nose.

"Think about it. You know, your grandmother has a bad temper, and your aunt is also a picky and strong-willed person. Two hot-tempered people really can't live together. You don't want your father's life to become a mess, right?" Lu Yuantao hit both sides with dozens of boards, and finally appealed to their emotions and reasoned with them.

"Well, I know that grandma doesn't really want to come up, but she's an old lady in her hometown and has no one to take care of her. I'm worried. Don't worry, I'll go pick her up after I get a stable job."

The whole family fell silent, and the only sound at the scene was the sound of Lu Xiangxiang crunching his biscuits.

After a moment of silence, Lu Zhiyao finally broke the silence.

"Mom, we're holding a family party on the evening of the 30th. What are you going to perform then?" Liang Huifen is the director of the art troupe. As the director, her performance skills are naturally good.

"My show is ready."

This gala was jointly organized by several military regions, and it was particularly grand. Everyone had been looking forward to it for a long time.

Of course, due to some individual comparisons and to save the reputation of their compound, everyone rehearsed for a long time and was very cautious about replacing this program.

"Can you dance for us? Mom's dancing is really great." She clapped her hands.

Hearing her daughter's words, Liang Huifen was very considerate of her daughter. She smiled and stood up and said, "Sure."

Amid the clapping of several others, Liang Huifen jumped up.

Lu Xiangxiang also looked over. Liang Huifen was worthy of being the troupe leader. Her dancing was very graceful. Even though she was already a mother of two children, her posture was as light as a young girl.

Although my father is a bit of a scumbag, he still has a good vision.

Liang Huifen is pretty and dances pretty well.

After the performance, Liang Huifen looked at Lu Xiangxiang provocatively. See, she is even better than the mother of that country bumpkin.

Not only is she better than Lu Xiangxiang's mother, her daughter is also better than her.

Thinking of this, she turned her gaze to Lu Zhiyao, "Daughter, sing a song for me. I heard that you also signed up for the performance?"

"Yeah." She nodded.

Lu Zhiyao cleared her throat and began to sing. Her humming voice was so beautiful, just like the sound of a lark.

It was indeed good. She couldn't help but clap her hands: "Sister, is there anything else?"

Seeing her so supportive, Lu Zhiyao raised her little head proudly.

"Of course, I know quite a lot of songs. Not only can I sing, I also learned to dance from my mother since I was a child."

"I want to see it." She continued clapping.

Under her strong request, Lu Zhiyao thought it would be better to let her see it for herself.

So she danced and sang a piece of Huangmei Opera, and her posture was really good.

Lu Xiangxiang kept flattering them until Aunt Niu said the water was hot. Then she stood up and told them that she wanted to take a shower.

She moved very quickly. Seeing her stand up and take a shower, everyone at the scene was a little confused.

Looking at her back as she went upstairs, Lu Zhiyao inexplicably felt like she was just a thing to kill time?
