Rebirth 1983: Starting From Taking Back the Family Property Chapter 201

Gu Xiuxiu didn't go downstairs for dinner because she wasn't feeling well. After dinner, Lu Jiaxin wanted to go into the house to see her, but Aunt Mei stopped her.

Aunt Mei whispered: "The old lady fell asleep just now. If you go in now, she will wake her up. Cousin, if you have anything to do, let's talk about it tomorrow!"

Lu Jiaxin is dissatisfied with Hong Gu and doesn't have much trust in Mei Gu. To be precise, she doesn't trust anyone in Gu Zhai now.

 When she returned to the room, she opened the drawer to get something, and found that the items in the drawer had been moved. The maids who clean the house will only clean tables, chairs and wipe cabinets. They will not open drawers or pack things in cabinets unless specifically instructed.

Lu Jiaxin held back the attack thinking that Gu Xiuxiu fell asleep, but when she got up the next morning, she called Aunt Hong and Aunt Mei over and asked, "My drawers and cabinets have been rummaged through. Who did it?"

Mei Gu frowned and said nothing.

Honggu said: "Miss Cousin, your room was cleaned by Amei. She told me that your cabinet was messy and the drawers were also messy, so I asked her to clean it up."

Lu Jiaxin was disgusted and spoke rudely: "Those who don't know better think you are the mistress of this house, not a maid."

Honggu's face turned purple: "Miss Cousin, I am the housekeeper here. It is my responsibility to let the servants clean the room."

Mei Gu felt that it was not good to quarrel, so she whispered: "Miss Cousin, this matter is Hong Gu's fault. She asked A Mei to organize the cabinets and drawers, and she should have asked for your permission first."

Lu Jiaxin turned around and went upstairs to find Gu Xiuxiu and told her the matter: "Auntie, I told her before that you are not allowed to touch the things in my room when you are cleaning it. She took my words as farts."

Gu Xiuxiu was a little nervous and leaned on the bedside and said, "I'll talk to her later."

Seeing her sick look, Lu Jiaxin was silent for a moment and asked, "Auntie, what is the reason why you can tolerate such a pickpocketing person?"

Gu Xiuxiu still shook her head and said, "Aunt Hong is just getting older and has become a little stubborn, but her heart is still towards me."

Lu Jiaxin didn't say anything when she saw this step, her brows furrowed tightly.

 “Cough, cough, cough…”

Lu Jiaxin saw that she was coughing badly, so he stepped forward and patted her gently on the back. Her original plan was to move out after school. It's just that Gu Xiuxiu was very kind to her and wanted to come back and stay one night a week, but Honggu's behavior was really intolerable to her. But with Gu Xiuxiu's condition, she couldn't even talk about moving out.

Gu Xiuxiu held her hand and said, "Auntie knows you are a good child, but Aunt Mei and Aunt Hong have taken care of me for thirty years, and I can no longer do without them."

 Lu Jiaxin lowered her head and said nothing. Through this period of contact, she knew that Gu Xiuxiu was not a confused person. The reason why she defends Hong Gu is not because she really can't let go of her thirty-year relationship, but there should be a deeper reason. She guessed that Gu Xiuxiu had some leverage that He Zhuliang had caught, and that the leverage was fatal, otherwise she would not be so forbearing. But she didn't ask. Curiosity killed the cat. If you knew some secrets, you would be in trouble. In serious cases, you might die.

 “Dong, dong, dong…”

Honggu said from outside: "Old lady, it's time for you to take medicine."

"come in!"

Hong Gu came in with the medicine, put it beside the bed and looked at Lu Jiaxin: "Miss Cousin, please step aside. I want to give the old lady medicine." Lu Jiaxin frowned and said, "How can you take medicine on an empty stomach? ?”

Honggu took the medicine and gently put it in Gu Xiuxiu's mouth, then gave her the water. His movements are very gentle and his expression is very caring. You can't fault him when it comes to taking care of others.

When Gu Xiuxiu finished taking the medicine, Honggu said with a smile: "The doctor told me to take this medicine on an empty stomach, and you can eat it one hour after taking it."

Lu Jiaxin saw that Gu Xiuxiu was not energetic and could not stay any longer: "Auntie, you have a good rest, I'll go down first."

Gu Xiuxiu asked Honggu to go out first, and after the door was closed, she asked: "Jiaxin, can you keep up with your homework?"

Lu Jiaxin didn't hide it from her, and said: “Mathematics, history and natural science are a bit difficult. I have already called Teacher Jin and asked her to recommend a good teacher to me.”

This Teacher Jin is the teacher who gave her math tutoring before entering school. There are many cram schools and training courses in Hong Kong City, and some of them are very famous and difficult to get into. It's just that what Lu Jiaxin needs is one-on-one tutoring, which is more efficient. As for the price, she could afford it herself, but it was all borne by Gu Xiuxiu.

Gu Xiuxiu also knows that the seventh grade is a very critical time, especially since the Lu family has transferred from the mainland, and she needs the teacher's guidance: "You are at a critical time now. It's a mess here, and you can't read in peace, even if the teacher comes to give you tutoring. It's inconvenient. Don't come here anymore on weekends if you have nothing to do. The time saved can be used to read more books.”

Lu Jiaxin shook her head and said, "Auntie, how can I not come back in your current body?"

 Gu Xiuxiu smiled: "Don't worry. I just have a little cold, but it gets better slowly as I get older. The most important thing now is your studies. Time is precious. Try to get admitted to the University of Hong Kong next year."

Lu Jiaxin did not refuse, she just wanted to wait until Gu Xiuxiu recovered from her illness before moving out.

Gu Xiuxiu said in her heart that the children she raised are very filial: "We have Aunt Mei and Aunt Hong here. If I feel uncomfortable, I will ask Dr. Xu to come over. If I feel uncomfortable, I will go directly to the hospital. You can't help here. If you are busy, you should go back and review your homework. Jiaxin, getting admitted to university will be of great help to you in the future."

Those big families or wealthy families are very particular. Maybe they don't care much about family status, but the wife they marry must be smart and capable. A person who cannot even pass the college entrance examination has a doubtful IQ and may even affect the next generation. Of course, there are many rich people in Hong Kong who marry celebrities, but this person is basically excluded from the list of inheriting the family business.

Lu Jiaxin said that she will work hard and will definitely be admitted to the University of Hong Kong next year.

The smile on Gu Xiuxiu's face became deeper and deeper: "You can't just talk about it, you have to put it into action. Okay, you go have breakfast quickly, and go back to review your homework after dinner."

Unable to defeat her, Lu Jiaxin could only eat breakfast and go back to the house to pack her things. I may come back to stay occasionally, so I left a change of clothes and packed up everything else.

While Lu Jiaxin was packing her things, Gu Haifan came.

Seeing the box on the ground, Gu Haifan lowered his head and asked softly: "Cousin, Aunt Hong said you want to move it away, is it true?"

Lu Jiaxin said with a smile: "It's not that I'm moving away, it's that I'm very nervous about my studies now, and my aunt wants me to spend more time reviewing my lessons. I will still come here every week in the future."

She was also worried about Gu Xiuxiu, and Gu Haifan was too young to understand many things, so she had better come over more often.
