Chapter 478: Sadness of Separation
Lu Sihui looked at the grandfather and grandson bickering and felt that it was very loving. She was really reluctant to say goodbye, but she still had to say that all good things must come to an end.
"Why? Aren't you used to living at home?"
Old Master Zhou subconsciously thought of his son's attitude when he came back yesterday. Sihui is a strong-willed person and she definitely couldn't stand it, otherwise she wouldn't have suggested leaving.
"Is it because of my dad?"
Zhou Zixu was not in the mood to eat. He looked at Sihui seriously. It was good enough that his father came back once a month. This time he came with a cold face. Not even the whole family could stand it, let alone Sihui and her brother!
"Not really. I just want to have a home that belongs to Jianguo and me."
Lu Sihui did not deny that Zhou Baichuan's attitude yesterday did make her uncomfortable, but it was not entirely because of him.
It's not a good idea to always disturb Zhou's family, as her secret will be easily discovered.
"My home is your home. When I marry you in the future, I will apply for a family housing unit and we will move out."
Zhou Zixu frowned. He had planned to say this for a long time, but he was not qualified to marry Sihui yet, so he had never said it.
"Wherever you go, you must take me with you."
Mr. Zhou felt sad after hearing this. The thing he cherished most in this family was his little grandson. Now there was a future granddaughter-in-law. If they were gone, what would be the point of this family? It was cold and inhuman. If you stayed for a long time, you would become a fool.
Lu Sihui glanced at Zhou Zixu. She believed what he said, but she still wanted her own house. Jianguo would also find a wife in the future, so they couldn't live together, right?
"Grandpa, when I buy a house, you can move in if you like."
When Lu Sihui looked at her grandfather, her expression was very sincere. At that time, the house belonged to her, and her grandfather could stay there as long as he wanted. It was impossible for Zixu's father to run to her house to show his displeasure.
"Okay, I'm happy to hear you say that. Just don't think I'm a burden when the time comes."
Old Master Zhou sniffed, feeling a little sad in his heart. Why was he feeling sad before we even parted?
"After dinner, I went out to look for a house. I sold a ginseng root and had a few hundred yuan in my hand. I didn't know if it was enough."
Lu Sihui did not hide anything. Rather than making Zhou Zixu and his grandfather suspicious, it was better for her to confess the truth.
"Is that the ginseng you gave me?"
Old Master Zhou remembered that Sihui had given him one, but he had never been willing to use it. Doctor Huang said that this ginseng was very valuable and was at least a hundred years old, so he asked him to keep it to make wine, which would be good for his health.
"Yes, there are many in the inner mountains. I also gave two to the village."
Lu Sihui nodded. She didn’t think the free stuff was precious.
She doesn't care much about money, as long as it is enough for her and her brother to buy a house and furniture.
"Then I'll give you some money, so you can buy a house that suits your taste. I'll live there too!"
Mr. Zhou pondered for a while, stood up with the help of a cane, and spoke for himself.
In fact, I don’t want to take advantage of Sihui. Without the protection of her parents, and having to support a younger brother, it must be difficult for the child!
"Grandpa, no need, I have enough money."
Lu Sihui stood up and called out to grandpa. They were halfway through their meal, but no one seemed to have the appetite to continue eating. No matter how delicious the food was, it was defeated by the sorrow of home.
"Sihui, this is too sudden. I can't give it to you now. I will work hard in the future and strive to let you live in a house like this."
Zhou Zixu held Sihui's hand under the table and looked at her with deep eyes, which was rare for him to be serious. He almost said that he wanted to be a commander of the army and make Sihui the envy of others.
