On the second day of the Lunar New Year, Lu Hongjun brought mutton, prawns, and fruits, all of which Lu Jiaxin loved to eat.

Qian Xiaoxiao took the things very neatly. They were not cheap. The vixen mother and daughter said: "Sister Xin is in a bad mood every time she sees you. She is not in good health now. The doctor told her to keep a good mood. You have to be serious." If you feel sorry for her, you shouldn't bother her."

Although he had said that he would give Lu Hongjun a good beating, he was just talking about it and could not really beat him. When she beat that man up, people said he wasn't even her biological father! She wasn't planning to get married anyway. No matter what those people said, Sister Xin's reputation as a decent person was still very important to her.

Lu Hongjun was a little aggrieved, but he still held back his anger and said, "Let her come out. I have something to tell her."

How could Qian Xiaoxiao ask him to nag Lu Jiaxin? She said, "Just tell me. I will tell Sister Xin when she comes out."

Lu Hongjun was a little aggrieved, but he still said: "The tutor I hired for her will come over the next day. The student's name is Deng Yan. He is a sophomore student in the School of Foreign Languages. His English pronunciation is very standard."

Qian Xiaoxiao said, "I understand. If nothing happens, go back quickly. You are not welcome here."

There are advantages to being reckless. Xue Mao would never dare to talk to Lu Hongjun like this, let alone Xiao Qiu. Qian Xiaoxiao is not afraid of this. Lu Jiaxin is her food and clothing parent, and other than her, no one else is worth mentioning.

Lu Hongjun went out with a livid face.

After driving the person away, Qian Xiaoxiao opened the bag: "Wow, wow, wow, what a big leg of lamb, a lot of prawns. Xue Mao, for lunch we have braised prawns and mutton stewed with potatoes."

Meat is Qian Xiaoxiao's favorite, so she doesn't understand why Lu Jiaxin doesn't eat chicken legs or duck legs. It doesn't matter if there is fruit or not. Contrary to her, Lu Jiaxin can live without meat but must have fruit every day. So Xue Mao went shopping for vegetables and saw that she would buy fruits no matter how expensive they were. After buying them, she would be the only one to eat them. Nowadays, transportation is inconvenient and fruits are so expensive that they are reluctant to eat them.

Xue Mao knew Lu Jiaxin's temperament: "It's better to ask Sister Xin. If she doesn't want it, we will send it back."

"I don't want the things delivered to my door. Sister Xin won't do such stupid things."

Lu Jiaxin looked at these things and didn't send them back, but she didn't want to take them either: "Xue Mao, please send all these things to eldest brother."

Qian Xiaoxiao was a little reluctant to part with it, so much meat! But she knew Lu Jiaxin's temperament, and she didn't dare to say anything no matter how distressed she was.

After Xue Mao went out, Qian Xiaoxiao apologized: "Sister Xin, I'm sorry, I should have asked you first before accepting these things."

Lu Jiaxin smiled and said: "I heard the conversation between you and him clearly in the room. It's okay. He will accept all the things he sends in the future and send them to big brother instead."

Qian Xiaoxiao nodded.

On the eighth day of the lunar month, the tutor invited by Lu Hongjun came over. Qian Xiaoxiao was stunned for a moment when he opened the door and saw the other party: "Who are you looking for?"

"Is this Lu Jiaxin's home? My name is Deng Yan, and I am the tutor hired by classmate Lu's father."

Upon hearing this, Qian Xiaoxiao immediately invited him into the main room, and then called out Lu Jiaxin who was reading in the room: "Classmate Deng, this is Sister Xin."

Lu Jiaxin was shocked to find that she spoke softly, but she understood the reason when she saw Deng Yan's appearance. This boy has fair complexion, handsome features, and wears a pair of black-rimmed glasses. No matter which era everyone likes gentle boys, well, more than thirty years later, they are called Xiaoxianrou.

Deng Yan stretched out his hand and said with a smile: "Hello, classmate Lu, I am Deng Yan. I hope we can get along happily in the next year."

When he said this, he showed his big white teeth, which is easy to make people like him. No, Qian Xiaoxiao is obsessed with it.

Lu Jiaxin did not extend his hand, and it was not fashionable to shake hands now: "Hello, I am Lu Jiaxin, please provide more guidance in the future."

Deng Yan was very surprised and replied in English: "Classmate Lu, your English is so good. Why do you need a tutor?"

The pronunciation standard is fluent, the speaking speed is moderate, the words are appropriate, and there are no grammatical errors. At this level, there is no need for tutoring at all!

Lu Jiaxin continued to say in English: "My grammar is not good, I need to strengthen it."

Deng Yan also replied in English, saying that he would help her with grammar.

The two communicated in English, and Qian Xiaoxiao, who was standing by, had stars in his eyes. He couldn't understand a word of the bird's language. Although this man was good-looking, staying here was quite boring, so she turned around and went to chat with Xue Mao.

Deng Yan came here mainly to understand Lu Jiaxin's situation, and then formulate a study plan that suits her.

Lu Jiaxin said: "Classmate Deng, I need an English teacher who can come to teach me every day, and a math teacher who can teach in English. I wonder if you have any recommendations? Don't worry, I will give you a satisfactory remuneration. ."

Deng Yan had no worries about finding a part-time job because of his high level, but he was a little puzzled: "Your English is already very good. You have no problem getting high marks in grammar. Why do you still need to teach in English?" Lu Jiaxin did not explain, but just said: "If you have candidates in this field, I hope you can introduce them to me. As long as the conditions are met, the cost is not a problem."

Deng Yan is a student at school, so it is impossible for her to come here every day to teach her: "I will ask someone to find out."

Deng Yan left after two hours of class. Because he had to pay for substitutions, it cost five yuan for a small matter. But now there are very few people who can speak English, and it is even rarer to speak English as well as Deng Yan, so the price is also expensive.

Xue Mao asked curiously: "Sister, why do you suddenly speak English so well?"

He didn't understand the bird language, but Lu Jiaxin struggled to read it with the tape recorder at first, but now he is very fluent, and the college student who came with him also answered the questions fluently.

Lu Jiaxin glanced at him and said, "From September to now, I have spent three or four hours learning English every day. Do you think these are all for nothing?"

Xue Mao said hey, "I think Sister Xin, you speak English so well, there is no need to hire a tutor."

"My speaking is okay, but my grammar needs to be improved. If I want to get high scores, I must improve this aspect."

Xue Mao, who didn't even want to enter a night school, thought it was just fine. But Lu Jiaxin wants to take the university entrance examination, which is different from him: "Sister Xin, then you study hard and get into the University of China or Beijing University."

Lu Jiaxin's previous goal was the Chinese University of Hong Kong, but if she plans to go to Hong Kong City, she will definitely get admitted to a university there. Her goal is the Business School of the University of Hong Kong, but there are differences in teaching between the two schools, so she is not sure she can get into it now.

Deng Yan was very fast and brought two people over on the thirteenth day of the first lunar month. One is named Wu, and looks to be around fifty. She used to be a college English teacher, but later became rebellious and did not want to return to school to teach. The other is female, named Zhou, and looks to be around forty. She is honest in mathematics at the High School Affiliated to BGI. Both of them spoke standard British English, which just met her requirements.

Lu Jiaxin chatted with the two of them separately for a while, and then determined the time for class. Because Teacher Wu does not have to go to work, we first set the class time according to Teacher Zhou's time, and then set the English class time. The fee is calculated by the hour just like Deng Yan, but it is higher than him, ten yuan for a small task.

After leaving the Lantern Festival, Su Heyuan found out the details of Ding Xiaoxia's mother. Ding's mother's name is Gu Lanlan. She came back with a girl from Dingjia Village who worked as a maid in the city. Because of his good looks, Ding's father took him back home.

Gu Lanlan never told anyone about her life experience, and she lived a peaceful life after marrying Father Ding. Unfortunately, Ding Xiaoxia was weak and died of illness when she was nine years old.

Dingjia Village also asked Gu Lanlan’s family members, and she said that they were all dead and were killed by bandits. Afraid of touching her sad past, no one asked again. However, Ding's father still knew something about her after sleeping with her for more than ten years. Su Heyuan spent some money and told him everything he knew.

It turns out that Gu Lanlan was sold by her father who was addicted to drugs and was sold to a large family as a maid. It was peaceful in the first few years, but then the situation became more and more chaotic and wars often broke out. The family took their belongings to the magic city to avoid the war. The girl she signed a death contract with in Dingjiacun was left to look after the house, but one night local gangsters came to rob it. She and the village girls escaped by hiding in a dry well. The girl decided to go home. Gu Lanlan didn't want to go home, so she followed the girl back to Dingjiacun.

Su Heyuan had doubts about Ding's father's statement. It can be seen from Gu Xiuxiu, Ding Xiaoxia and Lu Jiaxin that the girls in this family are all good-looking. Given Gu's father's urinary nature, he would definitely sell the child at a high price, but it would not cost much to be a maid. However, after getting the necessary information, he did not continue to investigate.

Not long after, people who went to inquire about the Gu family also received news. Mrs. Gu originally gave birth to three sons and two daughters. Except for the eldest son, Mrs. Gu and the other four children were all sold. It’s just that Mrs. Gu committed suicide by hanging from a beam the night she was sold. Two daughters, the eldest daughter Gu Xiuxiu was sixteen years old at the time and was sold to a wealthy businessman in his fifties. The wealthy businessman died violently on the night he took the concubine. Gu Xiuxiu disappeared; the younger daughter Gu Lanlan was sold into a brothel and was only eleven years old at the time. The maid serving tea. Four years later, the brothel broke into a group of soldiers and made a mess. At this time, the backyard was flooded, and many girls and maids took advantage of the chaos and ran away.

The names match, and Lu Jiaxin looks like Gu Xiuxiu. There are not so many coincidences in this world. So he can conclude that Gu Lanlan is Gu Xiuxiu's biological sister.

Su Heyuan called Su Hongying and told her about this: "Aunt, I want to reveal the news about Lu Jiaxin to Ms. Gu. She has no one she trusts around her now, so she should want to take her with her if she knows that she has this smart granddaughter."

Su Hongying knew that he wanted to bring Lu Jiaxin to Hong Kong City, but this was not an easy task. Lu Jiaxin agreed, but Lu Hongjun and Lu Jiaguang would not agree. But if Ms. Gu wanted to take her to Hong Kong City, it would be easier.

After thinking about it, Su Hongying said, "I'll ask Lu Jiaxin for her opinion first. If she agrees, you can tell Ms. Gu about her."

"it is good.

"Jiaxin, Jiaxin, phone number..."

The fat aunt's loud voice sounded outside again. Because Lu Jiaxin has so many phone calls, they have now become a part of the scenery in this alley.

Lu Jiaxin felt helpless, put down her book and walked out: "Fat Aunt, can you stop shouting outside from now on, just knock on the door and tell us!"

When she goes out these days, people always ask her why she has so many calls? What can she do? She can only say that it was a call from Lu Jiaguang or her hometown and friends. In later generations, when neighbors did not interfere with each other, they felt a little cold, but now they are too enthusiastic and it is unbearable.

The fat aunt smiled and said: "I'm afraid you can't hear me! Let's go, this time it's a woman calling, and the voice is not your elder sister-in-law or fifth sister-in-law."

After speaking, a gossipy light flashed in his eyes. She answered all Lu Jiaxin's calls, and those few people called, and their voices were all familiar. I don’t know who will call this time.

Dear friends, I want to post more updates. I also want to write more updates, but I don’t have so much time and energy. In the past, my father worked nine to five and could take care of the children. Last year, my father was transferred to the countryside and often worked overtime and couldn't come back. So far this month, I haven't had any weekends off (I took care of my child by myself on the first two days of the month when he contracted mycoplasma pneumonia). Sometimes I really I wish I had three heads and six arms, and burst into tears...
