Chapter 62: Door-to-door Persuasion
  The second uncle and the second aunt followed Lu Jiajie by car to the provincial capital. After the car started, the second aunt said: "Jiajie, you have the key to Jiaxin's house. When we wait in Sijiu City, your father and I will live at her place." ."

What are you doing living outside? It's a waste of money! There are so many rooms, you can stay here at will.

When Lu Jiajie heard this, he broke out in a cold sweat. He never expected that his parents would actually plan to build a house: "Mom, that's Jiaxin's house. You can't live in it without her consent."

The second aunt looked at him like this and thought he was too useless: "Look at how cowardly you are. Your father and I are elders, can she kick us out after we live in the house?"

Lu Jiajie now particularly regrets that he spilled the beans about the house. He found an excuse: "Jiaxin gave me the key, but before I came back, I gave the key to my eldest brother."

"Wait until Sijiu City and go find your elder brother."

Lu Jiajie didn't want to do such a stupid thing. He said, "Mom, dad, I don't dare. You have to go find your elder brother to get the key."

The eldest brother said before that he could not lend it to relatives to live in. At that time, he thought he was overthinking it. Now it seems that this is a precautionary measure!
  Second Aunt Lu scolded Lu Jiajie for being useless. She had not been able to coax Lu Hongjun for so long, and now the vixen mother and daughter outside were taking advantage. This is not possible. The third child's job and property must be left to their descendants of the Lu family.

After Uncle Lu returned the cart, he called Lu Hongjun and told him about Lu Jiaxin's sponsorship of Zaohua.

Lu Hongjun laughed angrily: "Brother, since she wants to support that girl, let her pay. I want to see how capable she is."

There is a young boy in our family who can study. Even if the girl helps him, it will be fine, but we must discuss it with him first, rather than cutting it off first and then reporting it later.

Uncle Lu's tone suddenly changed and he asked, "You don't care what you mean?"

Lu Hongjun knew his temper. If he dared to say no matter what, he would come to Sijiucheng tomorrow to find him: "Brother, let her pay first. If there is no money, I will pay later."

Deciding to support Zaohua without first asking her opinion clearly meant that she didn't take him seriously. His love and concessions made this girl become more and more outrageous, and she must be taught a lesson.

Uncle Lu also felt that what Lu Jiaxin did this time was inappropriate, so he did not refute Lu Hongjun, but just said kind words: "Jiaxin has suffered so much grievance this time, you should comfort her. Otherwise, if the father and daughter are separated, they will be separated. It’s too late to regret it.”

Lu Hongjun listened impatiently to his lecture. He was almost sixty and did not need anyone to teach him how to do things: "I know, I still have things to deal with, so I'll hang up first."

When he got home, Uncle Lu told his eldest aunt about the incident.
  The eldest aunt was angry and anxious: "Jiaxin wants his father to support him, so what can he do? Old man, Jiaxin is not sensible, why don't you understand even at your age?"

"Don't worry. I just asked the Red Army. He promised to support Zaohua, but only if Jiaxin surrendered. I will go to Zaohua Niang later and have a good talk with her."

The eldest aunt is still unhappy. How can a father be like this? The child still prefers the back room when he is wronged, and now he has to make the child submissive to do good deeds. Thinking that Xiaoqiu had been accompanying Lu Jiaxin these days, she called people into the room for questioning.

Knowing that Lu Jiaxin had made a promise to Zaohua, she felt that this child was too courageous and acted inappropriately. For such a big matter, even if you have this intention, you should discuss it with your elders first.

Lu Jiaxin returned to Sijiu City. She couldn't be found even if she wanted to scold her. Aunt Lu scolded Xiaoqiu: "You are getting more and more courageous now. You hide such a big thing from your family."

In fact, Xiao Qiu had expected that she would be blamed for the incident, but as long as Zaohua could go to school, she would not regret it even if she was scolded or beaten. Seeing her granddaughter's attitude, the eldest aunt had no choice but to say to Uncle Lu: "Master, when you see Dagen's wife later, you have to tell her that the third child funded Zaohua. Also, this money can only be used in Zaohua." In terms of studies, otherwise we won’t care about it.”

Uncle Lu knew her worries and said: "You will come with me later. This money must not be given to Zaohuaniang. Once it is in her hands, she will not take it out again. From now on, she will give her 30 yuan in the first month of school. Give her ten yuan a month and she won’t be able to make any decisions.”

There were many disputes in front of the widow's house. He went to Zaohua's house alone to talk about things, who knew what rumors would come out. The old woman followed, and the villagers had nothing to arrange.

The eldest aunt did not refuse, but she felt that she was stupid, so she still had to leave it to Uncle Lu to persuade Da Gen's daughter-in-law: "Let's go together. You will do the work for Da Gen's daughter-in-law, and I will have a good talk with Zaohua."

After spending money, we have to let our children remember Jia Xin’s kindness.

When the old couple arrived at Zaohua's house, her mother was cooking.

Zaohuaniang's forehead rubbed against the stove and turned black. When she saw two old people, she greeted them into the house. Because it was too hot, she wiped the sweat with her hands again, and there were a few more black lines on her face:.

The eldest aunt loves to be clean, so she couldn't help but turn her head when she saw her like this. But although she is messy, her house is tidy.

Uncle Lu came into the room and sat down. He didn't mince words and said directly: "Jiaxin heard that Zaohua was admitted to the best high school in the county but dropped out of school because of family changes. She felt it was a pity, so she called the Red Army and told the matter. . After the Red Army found out, they said they were willing to help Zaohua continue her studies."

Zaohua Niang was stunned for a moment, then came back to her senses but refused: "Uncle Tiejun, thank Uncle Red Army for me, thank him for his kindness. It's just that my family is in such a situation now that Zaohua has to go to school, and there is no one to do the work at home. ”

Uncle Lu used to be named Tietou. Later, he actively studied for national literacy. Later, Lu Hongjun changed his name and he changed his name to Tiejun. It was also because of his active learning of cultural knowledge that he was later elected brigade secretary.

The eldest aunt frowned and said, "Why is there no one working? You and Youliang are not the same person. Even if the warehouse is full, you can work in the morning and after school."

Saying that there is no one to work is actually an excuse. Zaohuaniang just doesn't want her daughter to continue studying. Two hundred yuan a year is only enough for tuition, miscellaneous fees and book expenses. Food has to be provided by the family. If it were a son, she would be willing to provide for him even if she was exhausted, but her daughter would have to marry into another family in the future, and if she was trained through hardships, it would be an advantage to other families in the end. She had advised her husband in the same way before, but unfortunately he didn't listen.

At this time, Zaohua and her two younger brothers came in. The eldest brother, Lu Youliang, said nothing.

Little brother Lu Mancang said: "Mom, I don't want to go to school anymore. Let me go to school! My eldest sister has such good grades, she will definitely be admitted to college in the future. I can't go to school, so I will stay at home and work."

Uncle Lu was very pleased. He felt very sorry for his sister. Comparatively speaking, she was much worse off if she had enough food.

But Zaohua Niang scolded: "You are only ten years old, what can you do to help if you don't study? Your sister is different, she can do everything at home and outside the house, and she can do well."

When the eldest aunt saw Zaohua hanging her head and saying nothing, she also felt sorry for the child. She gave Uncle Lu a wink and took the three siblings out.
