Chapter 105 It’s Over

Gaodi Street is right next to the house they rented. Lu Jiaxin went there four times and bought six woven bags of clothes, shoes and socks. In addition, she bought ten baskets of seafood.

They definitely couldn't take so many things on the train, as they would be suspected of reselling materials, and mailing was very expensive, so the best way was to ship them by train. Lu Jiaguang worked in the Railway Bureau and was also a leader, so it was not a problem for him to help ship some things. But when he heard the amount she wanted to ship, Lu Jiaguang was shocked.

Lu Jiaguang asked, "You bought so many clothes and seafood, are you going to sell them?"

If you sell them, it's not a problem to earn back the travel expenses of several people, but Lu Jiaxin didn't want to cause trouble for Lu Jiaguang. She smiled and said, "No, I wear the clothes myself, and I eat some of the seafood and give some to Xue Mao as materials. Brother, will shipping affect you?"

Lu Jiaguang laughed: "What impact can carrying so few things have. Well, it's hard to explain on the phone, let's talk about it when you come back."

"Okay."

After the things were shipped, Lu Jiaxin went to Gaodi Street to buy clothes again. Xue Mao followed her with a helpless look on his face, carrying things. He had spent more than a thousand on clothes, shoes, socks and seafood before, and he bought so many. Sometimes he felt that he was not spending money, but paper.

Lu Jiaxin knew that Gu Wenfeng would pass by Gudu on his way back to his hometown, and wanted to ask him to visit Liu Xiaoyue and her seven children: "Brother Gu, I want to know how they are doing now?"

If they are on the right track, and Liu Xiaoyue can make money from setting up a stall to support six children, then this matter will be completely resolved.

Gu Wenfeng knew that she was kind, nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go to Gudu first and then turn back."

He bought a hard seat and took the car the next day. He was forced to carry a bag of clothes when he left. Lu Jiaxin said it was a gift for Liu Xiaoyue and her seven children, and he couldn't refuse it. It was only when he was having dinner on the car that he saw the paper of the dry food bag and realized that he had been cheated. This bag of clothes was for him. In the letter, Lu Jiaxin said that he was stubborn. The clothes on Gaudi Street were cheap and beautiful, and he didn't know to buy two sets for his mother, wife and children when he went back. He didn't know how to buy it, so he had to do it himself.

Gu Wenfeng thought about Lu Jiaxin's personality and felt that there was probably money stuffed in the woven bag, but there were so many people on the train that he resisted the urge to look through the bag. After getting off the train and staying in the guesthouse, he took out his clothes and looked for them. Finally, he took out an envelope from each pocket of a cotton jacket and cotton pants. After counting, each envelope contained a hundred big unity notes.

One of the envelopes contained a letter, which thanked him for his protection and help in the past two months. The two thousand yuan was her little thought, and she hoped he could accept it. Not for himself, but for his mother, wife and children. Finally, she extended a sincere invitation, hoping that he could work with her.

When Gu Wenfeng saw the money, his first reaction was to return the money to her when he returned to Sijiucheng, but he was silent at the end. Finally, he decided to report the matter to his leader, if the leader said he could keep it. With this money plus what his family has saved over the years, he should be able to buy a small courtyard in Sijiucheng, and the family can be reunited with a house.

Two days later, Liu Xiaoyue returned home after setting up the stall. Just as she sat down and hadn't taken a breath, her eldest daughter came over and said with a smile: "Mom, big brother, an uncle sent a bag of rice today, and said you asked him to send it."

Liu Xiaoyue's fatigue was swept away, and she grabbed her daughter's arm and asked: "Where is the rice?"

Hearing that it was in her room, Liu Xiaoyue walked into the house at a brisk pace. When she saw the bag, she couldn't wait to untie the rope, and there was a letter in the rice.

The eldest daughter was not smart enough to hide the words, and the four children below were young and ignorant, so the money was kept secret from them.

At night, when the children were all asleep, Liu Xiaoyue woke up Sun Dong and told him that the man had sent food again, and then handed him the letter: "Look at what's written on it?"

After reading it, Sun Dong said: "Mom, the letter said that he had received favors from Grandpa. Grandpa is gone, and he can't bear to see us in such a difficult situation. He hopes that this money can help us live a good life."

After that, he asked in confusion: "Mom, since the other party is here to repay his gratitude, why doesn't he just give us the money? Why do you have to use this method?"

Liu Xiaoyue couldn't figure it out, but she didn't dwell on it: "There are reasons why they don't show up. Adong, we still have 3,000 yuan. Now the weather is getting colder and colder, and we can't stand setting up a stall outside. I plan to buy a shop."

The main thing is that she is always afraid that thieves will break in when the money is kept at home, and she will be robbed even more if she deposits it in the bank. If she spends the money on a shop, she is not afraid of being missed, but she can't stand the wind, rain and cold when setting up a stall. The six children are still counting on her, so she can't fall down.

Sun Dong was also tempted, but he was worried that it would be dangerous if he showed his wealth.

Liu Xiaoyue also considered the risks of opening a shop. She was not worried that the things would not sell. On the contrary, after a month of stall life, she was very confident in her skills. She was worried that after opening the shop, people who knew that they were an orphan and a widow would come to make trouble.

After thinking for a long time, Liu Xiaoyue said to her son: "I plan to ask your uncle to come and help. In addition, after buying the shop, please ask the landlord to keep it secret. We will tell others that it is rented."

She has three older brothers and a younger brother. As the only daughter, she is not valued and is either beaten or scolded. Later, she was sold to the gambler Sun Xun. Her eldest and second brothers used the money from selling her to marry wives one after another. When it came to the third brother, he spent all his money and couldn't marry a wife, so he became a son-in-law in a rage. So now, only her youngest brother has not married.

Liu Xiaodi was raised by her, and the relationship between sister and brother is very deep. After she was sold to the Sun family, she never went back. Her parents and brothers never came to the house. Only Liu Xiaodi came twice, and each time he brought a lot of things. Although it was some worthless dried vegetables and mountain products, it was a rare gift, and she always thought about it.

Sun Dong still likes his uncle very much, but he is worried: "Mom, if grandpa and grandma know that we are rich, they will definitely come to the door."

Liu Xiaoyue was not afraid and said: "It's already difficult for me to support the six of you. If they come to take advantage, they will be stabbed in the spine. They want face, so they won't come."

Although Sun Dong was only eleven years old, he had experienced the ups and downs of human relationships early on, and he thought more deeply: "Mom, grandpa and grandma are embarrassed, but what about the uncle and the second uncle? Mom, we should ask someone to take care of the uncle. Letter, saying that he came quietly so that grandma and the others wouldn’t know.”

Liu Xiaoyue thought about it and did as he said: "Xiaodong, when your brother-in-law comes, you will go back to school. Now that your family has money and no need to worry about livelihood, you should study hard. Only after studying can you be successful. "

Sun Dong did not refuse this time. The current situation at home gave him the confidence to continue going to school.
