Chapter 94: Mutual benefit
After cleaning up, Song Xin went to his house with Lu Shaozhi.
Song Xin can now roughly know that Lu Shao's family should be very wealthy. Sure enough, Lu Shaozhi's family built a large manor on the mountainside of a mountain, and a waterfall was dug next to it, which is estimated to cost many people the money they earned in a lifetime.
Song Xin only has envy for such a home, but there are usually a lot of things in such a mansion.
When I entered the gate, I got out of the car, and someone came over to get Song Xin's luggage, "This is my girlfriend, and you will be called Miss Song." β
Song Xin looked at Lu Shaozhi, and Lu Shaozhi whispered in her ear: "This is for convenience, with this identity, no one can stop you from doing anything." β
Song Xin didn't speak, which was a tacit acquiescence. Isn't it just an identity, anyway, after the matter is done, it won't have anything to do with it, and she's still a good person.
When he entered it, he didn't meet any of Lu Shaozhi's relatives, as if everyone had said yes and all disappeared. However, this does not prevent Song Xin from understanding the people of the Lu family, and there are really a lot of people in this family.
Lu Shaozhi's grandfather had six children, four sons and two daughters, Lu Shaozhi was the child born to the eldest son Lu Zhu and his first wife, because he took care of Lu Shaozhi, so he and the two later wives had no children.
The second son died early, had a fiancΓ©e, and the two seemed to have a child, but this woman never appeared, but she once wrote a letter to Mr. Lu, and everyone thought it was asking for money.
Although the eldest daughter Lu Qin is married, her husband is violent, so Mrs. Lu took Lu Qin back and stayed in the Lu family, and now she is handling almost all the big and small things in the family. She has two children, a son and a daughter, Zhou Chao and Zhou Lan.
The third son, Lu Jing, is a painter, not well-known, an alcoholic, and will take women home from time to time. has a daughter, Lu Jinzhi, who heard that it was a one-night stand with a woman. No matter what Lu Jinzhi's background is, Old Man Lu loves this granddaughter very much, and the relationship between Lu Shaozhi and Lu Jinzhi is also very good.
The fourth son is a travel enthusiast who is away from home all year round, and Lu Shaozhi doesn't know how long he hasn't seen this uncle.
The second daughter is no longer here before she is an adult, so there is nothing to say.
In addition to the children of the old man Lu, there are also two younger sisters and a younger brother of the old man living in this house, the second master Lu used to be a soldier, was injured, had a wife, and left a son Lu Duo, who never married later. The two old ladies used to live here, and recently moved back to live with their children, but they still come over whenever it is an important holiday in the family.
Lu Shaozhi provided this information, and if you add the children of the two old ladies, it is estimated that the number will be much more. Song Xin is also glad that she would be dizzy when she sees so many character relationships.
When she met such a big family all of a sudden, Song Xin still couldn't cope with it, so she didn't eat any meals, and went directly to the room prepared for her by Lu Shaozhi.
The location of the room is good, the view is good, which will make the mood better.
Time is tight and the task is heavy, at this time, Song Xin wants to be quiet alone, sort out the relationship between the characters, and then avoid some low-level mistakes. To be honest, she really regretted that she had come, but she rarely felt like this. It's not bad, but it's not good either.
I thought about it a lot, and I wanted to sleep, but suddenly in a place like this, it was really not easy to sleep. However, Song Xin thinks that her adaptability is still good, and she should be able to adapt. It's just that I don't know how Lu Shaozhi is dealing with his family at this time, and he doesn't know much about her.
Song Xin suddenly realized that what she was thinking about was meaningless, what were she thinking about, and she didn't think she was doing enough.
At this time, there was a knock on the door.
"Who?"
"Me."
It was Lu Shaozhi, and Song Xin went over to open the door.
"Why are you here?"
"I'm not worried about you, you must be hungry, I'll bring you something to eat."
Lu Shaozhi is very careful, but Song Xin has other things to do at this time, she wants to know what Lu Shaozhi wants to check by herself, otherwise it makes no sense for her to come here.
"That's what I'm here for." So, he said, "You know, I've already died once. β
Song Xin nodded, if it weren't for this, they wouldn't have met.
"After I died, my dad went to the hospital because of poisoning, and I don't know who poisoned it until now, and not long ago, my grandfather's car had a brake problem and almost had an accident, which shows that someone wants their lives, and it's the people of this family."
"The police don't have a result, so they think I'll get a result?"
"It's different, you're here as my girlfriend."
Yes, of course, ordinary police officers don't have to investigate cases with such an identity, but Song Xin still has a feeling that she has been tricked, but since she promised Lu Shaozhi and arrived at this home, she naturally wants to investigate to the end. She couldn't guarantee that she would find out, but she would try.
At this time, Song Xin was indeed hungry, so she started eating.
When I finished eating, I was in a good mood. So she chatted with Lu Shaozhi, she felt that there must be a lot of secrets hidden in this family, and if she knew something that couldn't be known by others, don't blame her.
"I don't know what is hidden in our family, what I can say is, no matter what it is, I'm not afraid of you knowing."
"Is this a love story in disguise?"
"If you think so, I'm okay with that."
I have to say that Lu Shaozhi still has something very attractive, but Song Xin just thinks that they can only be friends. Many people are like this, just by looking at it, they don't know if it's their true destiny, even after a particularly long time together, it's the same feeling.
Lu Shaozhi stayed for a long time, and Song Xin felt that he could leave, but he said that he wanted to stay for a while.
"You're fine?"
"Accompanying you to find out what is going on at home is the most important thing for me now, not to mention, I will leave this world in a short time."
Lu Shaozhi's sudden sentimentality did make people feel a little bad, but Song Xin thought of another question, "Is the thing that you have died that no one in your family knows?" β
"They did think that I was dead, because I had been missing for a long time."
"What did you die for?"
"Car accident and falling off a cliff."
"That is to say, the car accident you suffered is likely to be man-made, or it may be in this family, and this person is not sure whether you are really dead, maybe these incidents were committed by the same person."
"It's possible, but the day I came back, everyone was there, and they didn't seem surprised by my presence."
"There are so many people in the family, and you can't see everyone's expressions, so we need to take our time, create some topics, and then ......"
Lu Shaozhi understood what Song Xin meant, he felt that this method was feasible, and he would make this a reality tomorrow.
"When the time comes, I'll bother you to observe."
"No problem."
Song Xin was naturally very happy to find out that there was a breakthrough, and she couldn't wait to get in touch with the people in this family, wanting to know what kind of things were hidden in the hearts of these people, and how many of them could not be known. Like she said, there's a good chance she'll know some secrets, and she's looking forward to it.
Song Xin slept well, but she didn't know who knocked on the door early in the morning, she felt that Lu Shaozhi shouldn't do such a thing, so she didn't bother to care. Knock it, just knock it, she just ignores it.
However, she didn't stop ignoring the sounds outside, Song Xin threw something out easily, hit the door, and the outside sound stopped all of a sudden. Song Xin rolled over and continued to sleep.
I slept until I woke up naturally, and the sunlight outside had been completely uncontrollably shining in.
Song Xin stretched, then got up to wash up before going out. As soon as I went out, I was almost scared by a woman. This person seems to have been standing by the door, waiting for Song Xin to come out.
Song Xin soothed his little heart and looked at this person strangely, this person looked at Song Xin's expression a little indescribable. This person Song Xin has never seen, so she shouldn't be offended, but with her expression on her face, Song Xin doesn't know how to talk to her.
The woman bowed very politely, and then said, "Miss Song, I am the housekeeper of this manor, since you have come to the Lu family manor, you should know some traditions here." β
"Yes, yes."
"So, is that okay now?"
This morning before breakfast is ready to give a lecture, how can there be such hospitality. Song Xin was thinking about how to respond, when Lu Shaozhi appeared, and his sister Lu Jinzhi appeared with him.
"Aunt Mei, don't scare Song Xin."
"Young Master, I have been serving this family for decades, and I know how to do it."
"I know that you have worked hard, but the times are different, you can tell Song Xin about the traditions of this family, but you can't use this to restrain her."
"But ......"
"This is my decision, if you think it's inappropriate, you can tell my dad and my grandfather, I'll take them away first, and then I'll talk about it."
With that, he took Song Xin and left.
When he arrived at another place, Lu Shaozhi said to Song Xin: "I don't have anything to say, you don't have to care about their words anyway, I have something to go out today, let Jinzhi take you around." β
"You're busy, I'm free."
Lu Shaozhi really likes Song Xin's character, simple and free, no wonder he fell in love at first sight, but he doesn't know if he can spark after getting along like this.
Without much thought, Lu Shaozhi left. Lu Jinzhi felt that this sister-in-law looked very pleasing to the eye, so she was quite serious when she took Song Xin around.
After looking at it carefully, I feel the luxury of this manor even more. Song Xin thought about having such a house, but the level of luxury could not be compared at all. Fortunately, she is not a greedy person, and it would be nice to be like her own home now.
After shopping, the two of them sat down to drink tea.
At this time, Lu Shaozhi also finished his work and came over to join in the fun.
"Brother, I performed so well today, should you reward me?"
"You don't make trouble more often, and you're still rewarded."
"Even if it's for your own good, it's for you to be so sad."
"Okay, okay, what do you want."
Then the two of them began to bargain. Looking at the way the two brothers and sisters were fighting, Song Xin was really a little envious.
At this time, someone disrupted the harmony here, "Yo, this is Shaozhi's girlfriend, it really looks very unusual." β
The person who appeared was Lu Shaozhi's aunt, Lu Qin.
It stands to reason that Lu Qin's age should not be too young, but the woman in front of her looks like she is about forty and is very well maintained. I don't know if it's because I'm worried that my face will wrinkle if I laugh too much, but her smile doesn't make people feel it very much.
"Auntie, Song Xin will live here for a while, she is a girl, she may have something to trouble her aunt."
"Don't worry, your aunt and I are the best at taking care of people."
"I am naturally relieved to have my aunt's words."
After chatting for a while, Lu Qin left. She has a lot of things to do every day, and she can't afford to delay.
When it was time to eat, the three of them went to the restaurant, and at this time, the family came to seven, seven, eight, eight, eight, and Lu Shaozhi introduced Song Xin to them.
Everyone's expressions were different, and they didn't know what they were thinking.
Old Man Lu seemed to like Song Xin a lot, and beckoned Song Xin to sit next to him. Lu Shaozhi's father, Lu Zhu's expression, was a little disgusted, probably because he felt that Song Xin was not worthy of his son. His current wife Zhang Min's attitude towards Song Xin is much better, but Song Xin will not easily draw conclusions about this family, and needs to observe more.
After lunch, Old Man Lu pulled Song Xin to listen to him sing. Song Xin didn't expect Old Man Lu to like this, but she was very interested, no matter how Lu Shaozhi looked at her, she didn't see it.
When Old Man Lu sang, Song Xin listened to it strangely and beautifully. Although he is a lot older, he is full of energy, the words are round, and he has a taste.
"Do you think it sounds good?" Lu Shaoyi had a very surprised expression.
Song Xin said very seriously: "Yes, don't you think? β
"It's all crooked." Lu Shaozhi whispered in Song Xin's ear, he was really afraid of being heard by his grandfather. Everyone in the family knew this, but no one dared to tell grandpa openly, because of this, the ears didn't know how much poison they had suffered, but Song Xin couldn't believe it because he looked like he was enjoying it.
Then, Song Xin also leaned into his ear and said, "Do you think I seem to be a person who understands drama?" β
Lu Shaozhi really admired Song Xin, she didn't understand her feelings, and she listened so seriously.
When the old man finished singing, Song Xin praised again, and the old man was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth, and asked Lu Shaozhi to marry Song Xin into the door quickly.
It was originally a good thing, but when Lu Shaoyi thought of his own business, it was difficult to come over. But in order not to worry his grandfather, he could only force a smile.
Song Xin also suddenly thought that Lu Shao's time was short, and such a harmonious and warm scene was really a luxury.
"You sing with grandpa."
Song Xin pushed Lu Shaozhi to the old man's side, and the old man was also very happy, and under normal circumstances, no one was willing to sing with him.
Since they were all pushed up, Lu Shaozhi gave up his life to accompany the gentleman. The two of them sang together, good or bad, and there was no need to worry about this.
After singing, Old Man Lu was going to swim, Song Xin was shocked, this weather, swimming is not a little too cold, she feels cold when she thinks about it, Old Man Lu is really courageous.
Looking at Song Xin's expression, Lu Jinzhi said very proudly: "Sister-in-law, don't you know, grandpa is a great swimmer, and he used to participate in winter swimming competitions." β
Song Xin gave a thumbs up, "Awesome." β
"Sister-in-law, do you know how to swim?"
"I guess so." Swimming, that was a few lifetimes ago, Song Xin didn't know if she was asked to swim at this time, she still remembered how to swim.
Lu Jinyi looked relieved, "Yes, otherwise my brother will be miserable if he falls into the water, he is good at everything, but he can't swim." β
Song Xin thought that there should be no such opportunity, but she still smiled at Lu Jinzhi, this girl now completely treats her as a sister-in-law, and it feels really weird. Fortunately, she still likes Lu Jinzhi's girl, so she doesn't feel anything bad.
Without much talking, the three of them accompanied the old man to swim. The swimming spot is at the bottom of the mountain, at the bottom of the waterfall they have dug out. The environment is good, but the water temperature is a bit low.
The old man tested the water temperature and said to Song Xin: "You really don't swim? β
"I'd better forget it, I'll talk about it later when I have a chance."
