Chapter 231: Flattery

After the conversation, Lu Jiaguang was about to go back. Lu Hongjun stopped him and said, "The four children have grown up, especially Zhenzhen, who is a big girl. It is not appropriate to live in the same house with Lu Zhang anymore. You see, if you want Don’t buy a house like Jia Jie’s.”

Lu Jiaguang wanted to, but he had no money.

Lu Hongjun said that he had more than 4,000 yuan on hand: "Jiajie still has 900 yuan left to pay. You should have your own savings. If you don't have enough, you can borrow some from friends and relatives. If you want to buy, you should buy it early. Nowadays, houses in Sijiu City are sold every year. It’s rising, so you can save money if you buy early and move in early.”

Lu Jiaguang refused and said, "Third uncle, if you have money, buy a house by yourself. This building is not as comfortable as a bungalow."

He also feels that the bungalow is good now. I have eaten at Lu Jiajie's place several times and it is really convenient. Unlike Tongzi Tower, everything you say loudly will be heard upstairs and downstairs, and nothing can be hidden from so many eyes.

Lu Hongjun shook his head and said, "I'm going to buy a house outside. Once my employer finds out, the house I live in now will have to be vacated."

Lu Jiaguang said: "Uncle Third, if you live in such a big house alone, the employees in your unit will have objections sooner or later. It's better to make plans in advance."

Lu Hongjun lowered his voice and said: "Someone from above has proposed the privatization of public housing. Now that there are rumors that this matter is being considered, these houses may be privately owned in a few years."

Lu Jiaguang is not as well informed as he is, but the privatization of public housing is beneficial to them. After all, his house is not too small.

Lu Hongjun said: "Even if you want to buy a house outside, the house should be in the names of Lu Ping and Lu An, otherwise you will be very passive if others find out."

Lu Jiaguang shook his head and said that he had no money and could not buy a house: "Uncle Third, if you have money and want to buy a house, you can put it in Jiaxin's name. That way, people in your work unit won't be able to say anything if they know about it. Jiaxin will think that you are thinking about her." will be happy too."

Lu Hongjun shook his head and said: "She won't want it, and she won't care about these three melons and two dates. Don't refuse in a hurry, go back and discuss it with Xiaojie."

After returning home, Lu Jiaguang told Wang Xiaojie about the matter: "Third uncle's money can be saved by himself for retirement. We can't take it, otherwise we will think that I am plotting his property."

Wang Xiaojie never thought about asking for Lu Hongjun's money, as long as he gave his connections to his man: "I will take Lu Zhang and Zhenzhen to visit him in the future, and I will make it clear to him."

Lu Hongjun worked hard to make her husband possible today. Now he lives alone. Lu Jiaguang and Wang Xiaojie will take their children to visit him when they have time on weekends.

After talking about this matter, Wang Xiaojie talked about borrowing money again: "Jiajie has repaid the money he borrowed from us a long time ago. He probably forgot to repay the third uncle's money."

Under Lu Jiaguang's persuasion, Lu Jiajie did not open a shoe factory in partnership with his friends but continued to sell clothes. Over the past six months, he made a lot of money.

Lu Jiaguang also thought he had forgotten. Lu Jiajie is not a stingy person. Every time he goes to see Lu Hongjun, he is packed with bags, and his family's clothes are all packed up by Lao Wu.

After sighing, Lu Jiaguang said: "Uncle San is really old."

If he had mentioned the nine hundred yuan before, he would not have mentioned it at all, but today he solemnly told himself. Ding Jing was caught and Jia Xin fled to Hong Kong. Not only did her third uncle lose his energy, he also acted stingier than before.

Wang Xiaojie did not sympathize with Lu Hongjun. He had brought this situation on his own. Otherwise, a daughter as promising as Jiaxin would not have to worry about her old age or please them. But then again, Lu Hongjun felt sorry for Jia Xin, but he gave their family great help. You can't be a person without conscience. From now on, the couple will definitely take care of Lu Hongjun in his later years.

Thinking of this, Wang Xiaojie said: "Jiaguang, let's go to my third uncle's place during the Chinese New Year. His place is spacious. Our house is still a bit small, and it's difficult for so many people to turn around."

Of course Lu Jiaguang had no objection. He thought about the scene of everyone celebrating the New Year together in the past: "The third uncle's place is big, so I invited Jiajie to join us and it was lively."

"Okay, you can call Jiajie tomorrow and ask for his opinion."

When Lu Jiajie heard that he was going to Lu Hongjun's place to celebrate the New Year, he agreed without saying a word: "I just bought some new year goods to send to my third uncle. I will tell him about it later and I will definitely be happy from ear to ear."

Lu Jiaguang hummed and then asked: "The public housing that my third uncle lives in now will be taken back by his work unit, so he wants to secretly buy a bungalow, but he doesn't have enough money."

Lu Jiajie felt that this was nothing, and said carelessly: "What kind of house should I buy? If his house is taken back, I will take him home. It is not safe for a person to live alone at such an old age, and there will be no one around him." You know, there are three meals a day. It’s great to have my aunt do the laundry and cook, and Qiangqiang and Xiaofeng to accompany me.”

Lu Jiaguang asked, "Have you told your third uncle about this?"

Lu Jiajie said that he had said it no less than three times, but Lu Hongjun did not agree: "Third uncle said that if my parents knew that he was living in my house, they would definitely come to Sijiu City to cause trouble."

In fact, Lu Hongjun was worried not only about Uncle Lu and his wife, but also about Ma Lili. After so many years of contact, he knew very well that Ma Lili was not a very generous person, and the relationship between the couple was not good. If he wanted to live there, it would be annoying to see the couple quarreling every day.

Lu Jiaguang said: "The third uncle is really not suitable to go to your house. He is in good health now. When Jiaxin comes back from Hong Kong City, we will discuss it together."

"Will Jiaxin take care of Third Uncle?"

Lu Jiaguang said with certainty: "As long as the third uncle and Ding Jing divorce, Jia Xin will definitely take care of it. It can't be mentioned before the divorce."

In the evening, Lu Jiajie returned home and said to Ma Lili who was cutting vegetables: "I told my eldest brother that we will go to Uncle San's house to celebrate the New Year this year. The old man is alone and lonely, so it will be more lively if we go there."

He was originally planning to go back to his hometown with Lu Jiazong to celebrate the New Year, but Lu Feng caught a cold and has not recovered yet. For the sake of the child's health, he stayed in Sijiucheng to celebrate the New Year.

Ma Lili was anxious when she heard it, put down the knife in her hand and said: "You promised me that you would bring my parents to celebrate the New Year together this year."

Lu Hongjun has retired and no longer needs to please him. In the past six months, she has only visited once during the Mid-Autumn Festival, and her attitude was not as warm as before.

Lu Jiajie's face suddenly became ugly: "When did I promise to let your parents come to our house to celebrate the New Year? Ma Lili, you are lying now."

"You promised it yourself before going to bed that day."

Lu Jiajie did not remember such a thing, and it was very likely that he was confused in his sleep and was taken advantage of. He showed no mercy to Ma Lili and said, "It's impossible to come to my house for the New Year. I took Qiangqiang and Xiaofeng to Uncle San's house for the New Year. If you don't want to go, go back to your parents."

Ma Lili was angry and anxious: "Lu Jiajie, I have already told my parents, how can I put my face if you do this?"

Lu Jiajie has softened his attitude after being humble for a year, so he made this request. At that time, I thought everything was over when I saw him agree, but I didn't expect him to deny it.

Lu Jiajie snorted coldly and said, "That's your business. Ma Lili, I won't stop you from being a filial daughter, but don't drag me and the two children into it."
