Chapter Fifty-Seven: Aunt, Uncle

Out of the antique shop, Lu Zifeng took Xu Ruoxue to his uncle's house.

"Lu Zifeng, why are you buying so many worthless jade?"

On the way, Xu Ruoxue couldn't help but be curious and asked.

The average jade of 5,000 yuan a piece was said to be worthless jade, Lu Zifeng was very speechless about it, it seems that the daughter from the big city is different.

He rode his bicycle slowly, walking side by side with Xu Ruoxue, and said leisurely: "Didn't you say that you wore it for our son?

Xu Ruoxue was expecting Lu Zifeng's answer, but when she heard this, her face instantly turned red, ashamed and angry, "Who said that I was going to give you a son? ”

Lu Zifeng was speechless, why did he become a pervert again?

He said very innocently: "Ruoxue, why did you forget, it was you who first said that I was your husband, and also said that you wanted to give the jade talisman to our son to wear, do you think about it carefully, did you say it first?"

Xu Ruixue was speechless when asked, as if this was indeed the case, but at that time she was also trying to help him.

Xu Ruoxue immediately explained: "I'm not here to help you, it's not me, your jade talisman can't save two thousand yuan." Anyway, I can say, you can't. "A menacing look.

Come on, the eldest lady's temper has come up again, and Lu Zifeng knows that if he continues to talk about it, he may have to cry again.

It doesn't make sense to reason with a woman, so Lu Zifeng chose to shut up.

β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”

A few minutes later.

The two came to the front of a restaurant on the edge of the crossroads of the market town, where a lot of bicycles and electric cars were parked, and of course, there were also tricycles.

From the outside, you can see that there are already many customers in the store at this moment.

The name of the hotel is very second, called Tianxiang Hotel, at first glance, there is quite a trace of ancient charm, as if it is a time-honored restaurant for hundreds of years, but it is an ordinary restaurant, which has existed for less than ten years.

Of course, what is unusual is that the food cooked in this restaurant is not much better than that prepared by professional chefs in large restaurants.

"This is your uncle's restaurant? ”

Xu Ruoxue and Lu Zifeng stood side by side, and said casually: "Wow, it's so fragrant, I'm a little hungry." ”

Lu Zifeng took out the somewhat broken second-hand phone from his pocket, and the newly bought Apple machine was useless because he hadn't had time to change the mobile phone card.

I looked at the time and found that before I knew it, it was almost noon.

"If you're hungry, go in and eat. Lu Zifeng said.

"That, do you have a treat?" Xu Ruoxue asked weakly, she felt that it was necessary to make it clear, don't finish eating by then, and it will be embarrassing for her to pay.

She believes that Lu Zifeng is absolutely likely to do such a thing.

Lu Zifeng was speechless, I was like a person who couldn't even afford a meal?

At the moment, he said very arrogantly: "Of course I'm in for a treat, under a hundred yuan, you can eat as much as you want." ”

Xu Ruoxue glanced at Lu Zifeng, he was really a stingy ghost, but he had a hundred yuan, and it seemed to be okay.

In the past, she didn't pay attention to this little money for food at all, but now, she really didn't have a dime.

I parked my bicycle in front of the store, took my things off, and carried the wine and a soft Chinese cigarette in a bag separately, which was a gift for my uncle's family.

The other things were all put in another bag, which of course also included the jade talisman bought from the antique shop, but the jade talisman with aura fluctuations inside was left in Lu Zifeng's pocket alone.

Lu Zifeng carried things and walked into the hotel with Xu Ruoxue.

The hotel has a total of two floors, each floor is about seventy or eighty square meters, not as good as a hotel, but it can be regarded as okay in Qiuxi Town.

"Brother Zifeng!"

As soon as Lu Zifeng entered, a seventeen or eighteen-year-old young girl with pigtails and bangs in front of him found him and immediately walked over and greeted him.

Her name is Liu Xiaomeng, the youngest daughter of Lu Zifeng's uncle's family, she didn't go to school after graduating from junior high school, and she helped work as a cashier in a restaurant.

"Well, I haven't seen you for a few days, Xiaomeng, you have become beautiful again. Lu Zifeng smiled.

"No. Liu Xiaomeng smiled shyly, noticed Xu Ruoxue beside Lu Zifeng, and her eyes lit up instantly, wow, what a beautiful young lady, like a star on TV, she was a little ashamed of herself.

The customers eating on the first floor obviously noticed the sudden arrival of the store and thought that they were the best beauties, and they all looked sideways, looking up and down, hungry and thirsty, and talked in a low voice.

"Brother Zifeng, who is this young lady?"

Liu Xiaomeng knew that Lu Zifeng had a fiancΓ©e, so he was very curious about the relationship between the two.

"Oh, let me introduce you, Xu Ruoxue, our new college student village official in Lujiazhuang. ”

"This is Liu Xiaomeng, my cousin. ”

Lu Zifeng simply introduced the two to each other.

"Sister Xu, you are so beautiful. ”

The little girl is simple-minded, and she can't help but praise beautiful things.

Xu Ruoxue was praised by others, and her heart was naturally beautiful, and she responded with a smile: "Xiaomeng, you are also very beautiful." ”

"No, compared to Sister Xu, I'm just a country girl. Liu Xiaomeng said this, but he was still very happy in his heart, it was an honor to be praised by a goddess-level person for his beauty.

It's like a moviegoer, if he is praised by the Oscar for his good acting skills, he can't jump up happily.

Xu Ruoxue said with a smile: "Really, Xiaomeng, if you put on a little makeup, you will definitely become a little beauty immediately." ”

Liu Xiaomeng's face was happy: "Really?"

Xu Ruoxue nodded: "Of course." ”

Lu Zifeng stood between the two, listening to the two praising each other, as if he was not there, very speechless.

He shook his head and sighed inwardly: These two girls are really familiar.

"Why are you here?"

At this moment, a middle-aged woman's voice sounded not far away, and her tone was a little cold.

"Mom. ”

"Auntie. ”

Liu Xiaomeng and Lu Zifeng shouted one after another.

"What are you doing here?"

Cao Ying walked to Lu Zifeng's side, and her tone was quite unkind, "If you come to borrow money, I can tell you that our family has no money, you can leave." ”

"Mom, what are you talking about! Brother Zifeng finally came once, how can you talk like that?"

Liu Xiaomeng couldn't stand his mother's aggressive appearance, and wanted to help Lu Zifeng say a fair word.

"You little girl, what do you know? Don't speak. Cao Ying scolded directly.

"Hmph-" Liu Xiaomeng's face turned red, very unconvinced, "I'm eighteen, why don't I understand." ”

"Little dream, don't talk back to your mother. Lu Zifeng pulled Liu Xiaomeng's clothes, not wanting to cause discord between mother and daughter because of his own affairs.

Liu Xiaomeng pouted, puffing and puffing, looking at her mother sideways, and she didn't speak, she couldn't understand, they were all relatives, why was her mother so mean, Brother Zifeng was very good.

Xu Ruoxue stood behind Lu Zifeng, and she was also a little upset for Lu Zifeng, she was also an uncle, why did she talk so hurtfully?

Lu Zifeng didn't feel resentful at all because his aunt Cao Ying had a bad attitude towards him, but instead had a smile on his face and said, "Uncle, this is some of the things I bought for my uncle, you keep them." ”

He picked up the cigarettes and wine he bought for his uncle Liu Jiangdong and sent them to Cao Ying.

Cao Ying didn't even look at it, thinking that Lu Zifeng just wanted to send a few things under the guise of borrowing money.

"You better go, your uncle also said, you borrow our family's money, we don't want it, you don't want to borrow money again, really, we can't afford to borrow it. ”

Lu Zifeng felt a little guilty: "Uncle, I'm not here to borrow money, I'm here to repay the money." ”

Cao Ying snorted coldly in her heart, obviously not believing it.

Lu Zifeng was just about to take out the money, when Liu Jiangdong heard the report of the waiter in the store and rushed out of the kitchen.

"Zifeng, you're here, why didn't you tell me in advance? ”

Liu Jiangdong walked quickly to Lu Zifeng's side and smiled happily, "You said you, you came here, and you still bought things, it's true." ”

Lu Zifeng's nose was sour, and his uncle was kind to his family, especially during his mother's treatment, he contributed money and efforts.

Because of his family's affairs, he even had a quarrel with his wife Cao Ying.

Later, he was afraid of causing trouble to his uncle, so he didn't come to his uncle again, even if he was tired and tired, borrowing the high interest money from the villagers in the village, he didn't want his uncle's family to become discordant because of his family.

"Uncle, this thing was specially bought to honor you. ”

Lu Zifeng's voice was a little choked.

"Okay, if you have this filial piety, I'll accept it first, but only this once, not for example. ”

Liu Jiangdong said happily and took the gift from Lu Zifeng.

Seeing this, Cao Ying's face was also quite ugly, but she also knew her husband's temper, and if she said anything at this time, her husband might be angry.

glared at Lu Zifeng viciously and pressed it, and stopped talking.

"Xiaomeng, you take this thing, I will accompany your brother Zifeng to the box to have a good talk. ”

Liu Jiangdong handed the things to his daughter Liu Xiaomeng, and then patted Lu Zifeng's shoulder, "Zifeng, let's go, let's go to the box to talk." ”

Lu Zifeng nodded and followed his uncle towards the box on the second floor.

Xu Ruoxue naturally followed.

"Hmph-"

Seeing her husband and this poor nephew so enthusiastic, Cao Ying snorted coldly, feeling extremely uncomfortable in her heart, and felt that she had to break the fortune today.

"Mom, do you see, the things that Brother Zifeng brought are valuable, this Lincheng tribute wine, and this soft China. ”

Liu Xiaomeng opened the bag and said to her mother.

Cao Ying was stunned when she saw that it was really soft China, and then felt even more bad, it's over, she must borrow a lot this time, otherwise she wouldn't have given such a valuable gift.

In the box.

Lu Zifeng and Liu Jiangdong sat next to each other.

Xu Ruoxue was embarrassed, she didn't know whether to sit down or not, she felt forgotten, she was a little unhappy in her heart, and felt that Lu Zifeng should introduce her.

"Hey, Zifeng, who is this girl?"

Liu Jiangdong also noticed Xu Ruoxue at this time, his eyes were slightly bright, this girl was really handsome, and hurriedly asked.

"Oh, her name is Xu Ruoxue, a new college student village official in our village, and I am here to accompany her to the town to buy some things today. ”

After Lu Zifeng introduced, Liu Jiangdong sighed, and was a little impressed by Xu Ruoxue, it was not easy for college students to come to be village officials, so he hurriedly beckoned Xu Ruoxue to sit down, and poured a cup of tea himself.

Later, after shushing the cold and asking for warmth, Liu Jiangdong asked about his sister Liu Guilan's condition, and when he learned that his sister Liu Guilan's illness had been completely cured, he was also happy and burst into tears.

"Okay, Zifeng, your mother's illness has always been my biggest concern, and now it's finally better, God has eyes. ”

Liu Jiangdong sighed with emotion.

Lu Zifeng took the opportunity to take out the 40,000 yuan from his pocket.

"Uncle, when my mother was cured, I borrowed 40,000 yuan from you, and now that I have money, my mother's illness is cured, so you can accept it. ”

The reason why Lu Zifeng only paid back 40,000 yuan and didn't pay back more was not because he was reluctant, but because he knew that if he gave more, his uncle would not ask for it.

When Liu Jiangdong saw the 40,000 yuan that Lu Zifeng took out, he was stunned, and hurriedly asked, "Zifeng, where did you get this money?"

Lu Zifeng naturally recounted the rhetoric of deceiving his father and mother, of course, and said less nonsense about those weapons.

After Liu Jiangdong listened, he nodded reassuringly, thinking to himself, this nephew's luck is too good.

Go up the mountain to pick mountain goods, this is in Qiuxi Town, that is what many villagers will do when they are not working, usually at most they will pick some wild mushrooms or something, not worth much, even if they pick ginseng, it is also some small ginseng.

It is quite difficult to pick decades of old ginseng, let alone pick several at once.

Xu Ruoxue listened to it with relish, and also knew where Lu Zifeng's extra money came from for no reason.

However, I was slightly puzzled.

According to Lu Zifeng, he only has about 300,000, but she saw with her own eyes that Lu Zifeng's money seemed to be almost 300,000.

And the demeanor and demeanor of spending money, where is it like a person of 300,000, it is more tyrant than 3 million.

She remembered that Lu Zifeng had promised to donate 500,000 yuan to build the ancestral hall of Lujiazhuang, if it was only 300,000, it would be impossible to boast about this Haikou.

So she felt that Lu Zifeng must have something to hide.
