Chapter 15

"Good luck!"

When Lu Jiayi heard Xu Lin's voice, she stood up and shouted: "We are here!"

Xu Lin came through the reeds and saw Lu Jiayi wavering through the reeds, revealing her arms.

"Why did you come here?"

"The clothes are wet, so I'm drying here."

When Xu Lin heard this, he didn't go in and asked, "Is it dry?"

"I guess I have to wait a little longer."

"Then... I'll be waiting for you outside."

"How about you go back first, I don't know how long it will take to wait."

Xu Lin asked: "Is that OK?"

"What's wrong?"

Xu Lin put down the things in his hand: "I bought you two more bean paste cakes."

Very considerate.

After Xu Lin left, Lu Jiayi brought the bean paste cake he bought and asked Qi Yang: "Do you eat it?"

Qi Yang shook his head, he had almost finished his body and started to wear clothes.

Lu Jia wanted to speak but stopped. Seeing Qi Yang put on his clothes, she left him wherever he left.

The wind swayed with the reeds, and there was nothing else to see. Lu Jiayi was thinking about whether she could not find the way out later when she suddenly saw Qi Yang coming back and sat down on the grass.

Lu Jiayi couldn't help but jump in her heart, and leaned on her knees and said, "Qi Yang."

Qi Yang turned his head to look at him and saw Lu Jiayi's eyes shining. Lu Jiayi's smile was so beautiful, very sweet and bright, and it was different from his usual positive Fang Jin's appearance: "You are so nice."

...

Qi Yang's throat moved.

Although Lu Jiayi was thin, the boy of seventeen or eighteen years old had smooth lines when his body was the tightest and firmest. He could see clearly the decoration hanging around his neck. It was a white jade plaque with no patterns and words.

The two of them waited until the sun was about to set and the temperature was lower. Lu Jiayi put on her half-dried clothes before she came out of the reeds together.

It seemed that the show had ended. There were many pedestrians passing by on the bridge, and the most were the old men and women, carrying small stools, staggering while chatting about the show they had just finished. Those who were far away rode tricycles, and occasionally there were young people who were speeding by bicycle. The afterglow of the sunset dyed half of the river red. Lu Jiayi looked at Qi Yang's back in front of him. Qi Yang put his hands in his pockets, tugging, wide shoulders and thin waist, tall and strong.

When they arrived at the south side of the bridge, the two were about to part ways. Lu Jiayi asked, "It's going to be dark, why don't you go back?"

Qi Yang said "yes".

Lu Jiayi had to walk alone. When she was about to be separated by the oleander on the side of the road, she turned around and looked again. Seeing Qi Yang sitting under the willow tree fishing alone, one shot at a time, she felt very lonely.

People are cold, but their hearts are hot.

As soon as the sun set, the temperature immediately dropped. Lu Jiayi trotted all the way and finally returned to the osmanthus before dark, but as soon as she walked near their house, she heard someone quarrel.

There were many neighbors outside their house. When his third aunt saw him coming back, she immediately grabbed him and said, "Oh, don't go back. The old woman brought someone to make trouble again."

Lu Jiayi looked at the crowd and didn't see Lin Xiuying, so her third aunt was pulled to her house by her third aunt: "Don't go back. When the old woman saw you, she wanted to pull you to cry and make a fuss."

Lu Jiayi didn't know what was going on. Through the window, Lin Xiuying could only hear a sharp voice and cursed: "I buy whatever I want, I'm happy with my own money!"

"What you spend is not the money you have earned from my son's life. Half of my son's money should be given to me and half of it should be given to my eldest grandson in college, not for you to enjoy it. Don't think I don't know what you did?"

"What am I doing? You say, make it clear!"

"You know what you did. You can't see what you did. Look at me in the houses of some men every day. If you look at me in the countryside, you can't see it. Let me tell you Lin Xiuying, my eyes are good and my ears are sharp! You spend the money my son has exchanged for his life to support men, and you will be punished by God! My miserable Gangzi, you are so pitiful. If someone kills you, you will eat delicious food and drink spicy food. Even your mother doesn't care about it. How can I live with my old woman..."

Lu Jiayi's face turned red and she asked, "Who is this?"

"Your grandma, can't you hear this?" said Aunt San, "Oh, don't worry, you don't understand her yet, you'll leave after scolding. There will always be two troubles a year."

He couldn't bear to be scolded like this by his mother. He had never seen him, and he shouldn't have avoided him.

So he came out regardless of Aunt San's obstruction. When he entered the house, he saw the mess in the house, foam boxes scattered all over the floor, Lin Xiuying's hair was messy, and she held her arms and was full of momentum. When she saw him coming back, her eyes were panicked.

"Jiayi is back." said a fat middle-aged woman.

A hunched old lady beside her turned her head and looked over when she saw him. When she saw him, she immediately cried and grabbed him: "My poor grandson, you are back. Look at what this woman has done. After buying these things, I am afraid that she will spend all the money you have for college in the future."

"You don't have to tell him this. Buying a refrigerator and air conditioner was agreed upon by our mother and mother. The air conditioner is installed in his house, and I don't use the refrigerator alone!" Lin Xiuying said, then grabbed Lu Jiayi's hand and earned it from the old lady: "You don't have to worry about him when he goes to college. I don't have to move a penny at all. Even if I move, I will give him a deal!"

"Look, everyone heard it. I just said that there was no penny. Now I bought air conditioners and refrigerators, and money to support Jiajia in college! I, an old woman, have many disasters, and you just say that for the sake of the dead Gangzi, I shouldn't ignore me!"

Old Mrs. Lu burst into tears as she said that she looked so pitiful. Aunt San and the others had already come in to persuade her to fight: "It's not good to be like this in front of the child. Both of them calm down. Let's say something. They are all a family."

"Who is a family with her?" Lin Xiuying was so disgusted. "I want to reach out and care about my money, but I don't have a penny!"

Lu Jiayi has been a child and has a word filial piety since she was a child. She really doesn’t know what to do. Her mother should be filial, but her grandmother should be filial, and he doesn’t understand any grievances or debts here. But it’s really undesirable for both mother-in-law and daughter-in-law to make a fuss in front of outsiders, so he said to Mrs. Lu: “Don’t calm down first and talk to my mother if you have something to do. My mother is not an unreasonable person, let’s…”

"It's not your business, go to your own house!" Lin Xiuying scolded him.

As soon as he finished speaking, his third aunt came up and pushed him into the house first, and then went to persuade the two mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.

He was born in a wealthy family and was a scholarly family. Although there were some conflicts between his sister-in-law, he was very friendly on his face. He closed the door and cursed him, and got together when he got together. This was the first time he had seen a woman scolding him.

Speaking of which, he still felt that Lin Xiuying was so arrogant. If this was the case in his era, his daughter-in-law dared to do this, and she would not want to live anymore. If the word "filial piety" was suppressed, she would have to squat in the cell.

He wanted to come out and persuade him a few times, but Lin Xiuying immediately shouted at him: "I told you to stay in there, your ears are deaf?"

There was noisy outside for a while. Seeing that it was already dark, it gradually became quiet outside. Lu Jiayi came out of the room and found that there were few people in the living room, and there was an aunt there. When she saw him coming out, she said, "Your mother is in the room."

"Where is my grandma?"

"Just leaving."

This was the first time he saw his grandmother. He didn't know what was going on in the middle, so he chased him out. Most of the people watching the fun had dispersed. He ran along the long street for a while and saw his third aunt sending Mrs. Lu and the middle-aged woman with her.

"Actually, Xiuying's mouth and tofu heart, you see, she still gives you money every time," said Aunt San.

"Auntie, do you think I am the unreasonable person? If my old lady hadn't had no choice, who would have come here to see her expression? It's like this when I go back and forth. I just hope to die sooner and be clean."

Old Mrs. Lu said and cried again. The middle-aged woman turned around and saw Lu Jiayi, so she pulled her to stop. Old Mrs. Lu turned around and Lu Jiayi ran over and called "Grandma".

Old Mrs. Lu cried again, patted him a few times, and said things that were hard or not. Lu Jiayi only knew that she wanted to be filial, but she didn't know what to say. She remembered that the bean paste cake that Xu Lin bought for him in her pocket, so she took it out and gave it to her.

"It's still my eldest grandson who is filial." Old Mrs. Lu cried and said, "I'll go to school well and strive for a future success, and my grandmother will rely on you."

Although I was a first time meeting, an old lady with gray hair cried like this and still made him feel uncomfortable, so he nodded.

He also knew the fat middle-aged woman. She was the cousin of Mrs. Lu, and he should be called the second aunt.

His second aunt came on a small tricycle and asked for money. When the money came, she carried the old lady Lu and left.

"Go back." His third aunt sighed and patted Lu Jiayi's arm.

The two of them walked back. Lu Jiayi looked back and saw that his second aunt was riding a tricycle and disappeared into the night. It was so dark, and I didn’t know if I could see the road clearly when I returned to the countryside. But what could he do? What he could give was just two pieces of cake.

"Your grandma is also pitiful. Your father is the only son, but she has not yet. Now that she is old this year, she is in poor health and can only rely on relatives to help her. It's because she is not good at making trouble." Aunt San said.

The two of them returned to the Lu family and saw that Lin Xiuying had already come out and her hair was no longer messy. They squatted on the ground to clean up the broken foam, and tears as big as beans fell.

"Sooyoung, are you okay?"

"What can I do?" Lin Xiuying wiped her eyes on her back and said, "It's just to ask you to make a joke."

"So too. She comes back and asks for money, don't you give it all? Every time she makes a noise, she has to give it to her in the end. Why bother? Give it to her early in the morning to save trouble."

"Why should I give her money without making noise? My money is blowing from the wind? She is just greedy. I see what she can do with her money, and she can hold it under the ground!" Lin Xiuying glanced at Lu Jiayi, who was at a loss beside her, paused for a moment, stopped talking, and just slapped the cardboard box containing the air conditioner, and held it in a corner of the balcony.

This farce ends here.

Lin Xiuying didn't say what happened just now during dinner. Lu Jiayi saw her red eyes and wanted to ask but didn't ask. She suddenly felt that she was an outsider.

It’s okay to only face Lin Xiuying, but now that there are more people you see, the feeling of an outsider comes out. He wants to comfort Lin Xiuying, but he didn’t expect that when Lin Xiuying mentioned Lin Xiuying, he was anxious: “You don’t care about your affairs!”

Lu Jiayi had no choice but to go into the house to study. Lin Xiuying was watching TV in the living room. At about eight o'clock, Lu Jiayi heard someone talking in the living room. He looked through the crack in the door and said it was Tang Saner.

"It's useless for you to come. She's even more angry when she sees it. Can you beat her or scold her?" Lin Xiuying said, "Oh, it's okay to tell you that it's okay. Are you upset? Go away quickly. Jiajia is unhappy when she sees you."

"This bastard has no conscience at all." Tang Saner said hatefully.

Lu Jiayi closed the door.

Old Mrs. Lu scolded so much, but one thing is right. Lin Xiuying has a man.

In this era, when a husband dies, women don’t need to be kept. Unlike his widowed mother Feng, who lost her husband at a young age, she has been guarding for nearly twenty years. Sometimes he feels that his mother is pitiful, but he has received such education since childhood. If a woman is not a widow, will she still marry again?

He felt that Lin Xiuying was also pitiful, but he felt uncomfortable asking him to accept Lin Xiuying and Tang Saner and couldn't accept it for the time being.
