Chapter 28: Lu Jiangfan

Jiang Huifen hurriedly took two steps and caught up with Lu Zhongfu, who was waiting for her, "Wife, I am thinking about replacing the kerosene stove at home with gas, and I will eat this faster." ”

After hearing this, Lu Zhongfu walked forward with his hands behind his back, and suddenly paused and said, "Wife, if you change it, the tea restaurant will also be replaced with a gas stove." ”

"Hey, old man, you're finally willing to replace the earthen stove and stop burning coal." Jiang Huifen clapped her hands and said, "I told you that I changed it, the gas stove cooks quickly and is clean." ”

He added, "Now I finally don't have to wrap my head in a towel and dig out the ashes." ”

"Finally, I don't have to see your mine-stealing appearance anymore." Lu Zhongfu immediately quipped, this can be regarded as a pleasure in suffering! Otherwise, I really want to die.

"You also said that you would have been asked to change the gas a long time ago." When Jiang Huifen mentioned this, she became angry again, and changed her words, "Then if you change it, it will cost a lot of money." ”

"It's just a month's worth of rent less." Lu Zhongfu walked to the bottom of the stop sign.

It happened that the car came at this time, and the old couple got on the bus.

After finding a vacant seat and sitting down, Lu Zhongfu said, "Old woman, don't tell Zhanshuo about Jiang Dan yet." ”

"Hmmm! I know! Jiang Huifen took out a handkerchief from her bag and sobbed, "If the old man Jiang Dan is gone, Zhanshuo and they will become motherless children." ”

"What nonsense? Don't they still have us! Lu Zhongfu said with red eyes.

He regrets it now, he knew it earlier...... I knew that I wasn't so tough at the beginning, and my only daughter was going to be sent to the gallows.

"Don't be cranky, old man!" Jiang Huifen looked at the look of self-blame and despair on his face, and hurriedly relieved, "It's a blessing or a curse, it's a disaster that can't be avoided, Jiang Dan has this catastrophe in his life!" Old man, our Jiang Dan is still waiting for you to save him! What if you fall? Also, there are Zhanshuo them! You have to be the backbone of them! ”

She shook his arm and said, "I'm not maliciously guessing our daughter-in-law, and she's not that kind of person. But Zhanshuo and they often live at home, and it's good to have our old couple here, just in case...... After a long time, there will always be dissatisfaction and complaints. ”

"I understand, I'll be fine, don't worry!" Lu Zhongfu patted her hand and said, I will be fine for them, and I can't let myself fall.

&*&

At the lunch table, Gu Yaluo and the others finally met Lu Zhongfu, the head of the family.

The old man who is about sixty years old is not tall and not as tall as Lu Jiangzhou, probably because he is old.

is worthy of being a father and son, twenty years later, Lu Jiangzhou is like an old man.

"Hello grandpa!" The three siblings shouted in unison.

Jiang Huifen smashed Lu Zhongfu with her elbow, "Hello to the children, don't you say anything as a grandfather?" ”

"Uh...... Okay, let's sit down and eat first! Lu Zhongfu said dryly.

Zhu Cuiyun put a lot of effort into this lunch, and the table was full, with chicken, duck and fish.

However, from beginning to end, Lu Zhongfu had a straight face, so everyone present didn't dare to gasp, just stuffy and ate.

After lunch, Jiang Huifen and Lu Jiangzhou took their three children to buy bedding and clothes.

Gu Zhanshuo took advantage of Jiang Huifen's selection to pull Gu Yaluo aside and said worriedly, "Luo'er, doesn't grandpa like us very much!" This face has always been like this. ”

Gu Zhanshuo's fingers were applied to his face and pulled down, becoming a donkey face.

"Puff...... Gu Yaluo pursed his lips and smiled, "It's not that Grandpa doesn't like us, but he doesn't know how to face us." He felt that his stubbornness had hurt his mother. ”

Gu Zhanshuo suddenly realized, "He is afraid of us, afraid that we will blame him." That's why he turned his face, but he was actually kind in his heart. ”

"Hmm!" Gu Yaluo nodded.

Gu Zhanyan leaned over and said, "But I can't see it, the corners of my grandfather's mouth are always tilted downward, and his face is serious and unhappy." ”

"The eyes are the windows to the soul, look at the eyes." Gu Yaluo pointed at his eyes and said.

Gu Zhanyan smiled, "Ah! I understand this, Mencius said: Those who exist in people are better than their eyes. The eyes cannot hide their evil. If the chest is right, the eyes are clear; If the chest is not right, the eyes will be squinting. Listen to his words and look at his eyes; What a man! Grandpa's eyes were very gentle, revealing joy and a hint of timidity......"

"Don't talk about this timidity, we just know it in our hearts." Gu Zhanshuo put his arm around his shoulder and said.

Picking Jiang Huifen on the side, she inadvertently heard the words of their three siblings, and her eyes suddenly turned red.

"Mom, don't worry, Zhanshuo is very sensible." Lu Jiangzhou suppressed the sour feeling in his heart and said.

"Hmmm! Let's go! Go and see Luo'er's clothes. Jiang Huifen took a deep breath and said.

She felt sorry for the children's sensibility!

"Grandma, I don't need it! I can still wear my clothes. Gu Yaluo said loudly.

Jiang Huifen squatted down and looked at her and said, "Good boy, don't worry about money." Your grandfather is also a small family. The four-story tenement building we live in now is our own. In addition to the tea restaurant and self-residence, the other dozen or so units have been rented out to collect rent. ”

Gu Zhanshuo interjected, "That location is not cheap!" "And the area of my grandfather's tenement building is not small.

"More than 20 years ago, this building wasn't worth much! Now it's worth a lot. Jiang Huifen continued to nag, "It is because of this building that my grandmother raised you, your mother and your uncle, and sent them to college." ”

"So, silly boy, don't worry about money." Jiang Huifen rubbed Gu Yaluo's head and said.

As a result, I finally bought clothes, bedding, and mattresses, and packed a small half car, mainly because the mattress was too big.

This was already Gu Yaluo and his three siblings holding Jiang Huifen's hand to let the old man stop, otherwise looking at this posture, they would move the department store home.

Gu Yaluo could understand Jiang Huifen's heart that wanted to make amends, and now that their daughter was like this, they blamed themselves very much, so they poured all their love on the children.

Especially the three children are so sensible, which makes her feel even more uncomfortable.

When I got home after shopping, I made my bed and put my clothes away, and it was already evening.

"Mom, Dad, I'm back." Lu Jiangfan walked in with a black briefcase under his armpit to change shoes.

"Jiang Fan is back, come in!" Jiang Huifen saw him and hurriedly asked, "Does Jiang Fan have any results?" ”

When Lu Jiangfan got the suspect really his sister in the company in the morning, he found the law firm where his old classmate was located during lunch and consulted.

This case caused a sensation in the whole city, and the name of the deceased's origin is so big in the United Kingdom, not to mention the colony of Xiangjiang, a small land. As far as prima facie evidence is concerned, the case must be overturned unless a miracle occurs.

In Hong Kong, the noblest race are the British and other foreigners.

It can be seen from the profession he Lu Jiangfan is engaged in, he is also a stock broker, and he has different pay for the same work, just because he is Chinese.

This is already good, his parents were not allowed to study subjects such as law and politics, but only became doctors.

If you want to get a lawyer's license, you have to fly to the UK, so if you don't have money, it's hard to study! I don't know how many people have been stuck.

Even now, the large and small administrative positions in the British government in Hong Kong are filled by Europeans and other foreigners. The heads of various departments of the British government in Hong Kong are controlled by foreigners.

They refused to hire the Chinese as administrative staff on the grounds that they were inefficient and unreliable.

It is important to know that the proportion of foreigners in Hong Kong's total population is between 2.3% and 3.3%, and these foreigners mainly refer to Europeans, Americans, Indians and Japanese. Of course, there is also a part of the Eurasian half-breed. The remaining 97.7 to 67.7 percent are Chinese.

However, from a political point of view, government employees, businessmen, clerks, and professionals are all occupied by foreigners, and in addition to occupying important positions in politics, business, and technical departments, foreigners also serve as clerks in various government agencies and commercial organizations.

Economically, because Hong Kong is a British colony, British capital is calling for wind and rain in the Hong Kong business community. It holds the economic lifeline of Hong Kong, and the four most powerful British groups are: HSBC, Standard Chartered, Jardine Matheson and Swire. As for Huaxia's banks, they have no foothold in Hong Kong at all.

It can be seen from the above that the political and economic lifelines of Xiangjiang are in the hands of foreigners. This has created their superior social status in Xiangjiang. In this society where Chinese and foreigners coexist, foreigners and Chinese have completely different occupational structures, income levels and lifestyles, so there are two distinct camps.

Although some Chinese businessmen in Xiangjiang have gradually become an economically powerful group in the past two or three decades, the Chinese community as a whole is still under the shadow of racial discrimination politically.

Therefore, the elders of the Lu family are collectively not optimistic about Lu Jiangdan's case, and they are extremely pessimistic. But in front of the children, I still try to pretend to be optimistic.
