Chapter 42: Wings Hardened

Ma Lili came back with a net bag of things. Before she even entered the house, she heard Sister Ma cursing. She was so angry that she pushed open the door and scolded Sister Ma: "You will feel uncomfortable if you don't make this family a mess and cause our divorce?"

Sister Ma thought she had something on Lu Jiajie, and snorted coldly: "He dared to wear the clothes bought by the woman outside to the house. I stood up for you, but you blamed me in return. If you are bullied in the future, it's your own fault. Don't complain to us."

Seeing that Lu Jiajie was wearing clothes she had never seen before, Ma Lili didn't lose her temper, cry, or curse, but asked with a sullen face: "Where did this clothes come from?"

Their relationship has always been good, and her husband loves their two children. The most important thing is that he doesn't have a dollar in his pocket. Why did he go to him? Because he is poor, he doesn't like to take a bath, or because of his stinky feet.

Lu Jiajie explained the source of the clothes: "The clothes are on the bed. Xinxin must have bought them for me."

Sister Ma looked at the clothes on him and sneered: "You should find a decent excuse. How old is Lu Jiaxin? How old is she? Does she know what clothes to buy for you?"

Lu Jiajie said disdainfully: "Sister, your child doesn't understand, but it doesn't mean that my Xinxin doesn't understand. My Xinxin is not only smart and can study, but also has good vision. The clothes I bought for Qiangqiang and Xiaofeng were praised by many people at school, and many parents even asked where they bought them."

Ma Lili listened to his boastful tone and was angry and amused: "Jiaxin doesn't have a job yet, so it's okay to buy clothes for Qiangqiang and Xiaofeng, but how can she accept the clothes she bought for you?"

Lu Jiajie smiled and said: "Although she doesn't have a job, she has a lot of pocket money, so it's no problem to buy two pieces of clothes."

Ma Lili was a little helpless, she really had no sense of propriety at all.

Seeing that she was not pursuing him, Sister Ma sneered, "Really? Little sister, you actually believe such a suffocating excuse?"

Lu Jiajie's anger came out again, and he lowered his voice and said, "Didn't you say your man is innocent? Okay, I will go find the man he is in love with tomorrow morning. Don't come to me if he gets his arms and legs broken."

Sister Ma looked at him in disbelief.

Ma Lili was worried that the situation would get out of control, so she quickly dragged Lu Jiajie downstairs. When they reached a remote corner, she cursed in a low voice, "Lu Jiajie, are you out of your mind? If he is really beaten outside, Sister will definitely blame you."

Yan Fang had an affair with his female apprentice several years ago. Knowing his character, it is not surprising that he has something with other women now. However, she did not want her husband to be involved.

Lu Jiajie said, "I can't live here anymore. I have asked my friends to help me find a house. We will move when we buy a house. I will not come back these days and live with Xinxin."

Ma Lili's eyes were red.

Lu Jiajie was a little reluctant, but thinking of the shameless Ma Dajie and the biased parents-in-law, he said hard: "We took the two children to Xinxin's place to stay for two days on the weekend. There happened to be a big park next to Guangming Road, so we took the children to the park to play."

Xinxin's house has many valuables, and if people know that there is no one, thieves will definitely break in. The home appliances and furniture are all newly purchased, and it will be a heavy loss if one is missing. He went to live there, and he was also helping to look after the house.

Ma Lili knew that he didn't want to endure it: "Let's all live at Xinxin's place, isn't it bad?"

Lu Jiajie smiled and said: "What's wrong with it. Jiaxin is not a stingy person, it's okay for us to live there for two days. But if you don't want to go, I won't force you, and I will take the two children to the park to play."

Every weekend, Ma Dajie's family came to eat. The couple didn't share a share of the food, and they always came back empty-handed. They didn't even help the broom when it fell over when they got home. These were fine, after all, they were not serving. But he really couldn't stand the sarcastic words that were trying to sow discord. If this continues, he might do it.

Ma Lili thought about her previous promise to take them to the park, but she was too busy to fulfill it: "We have to ask Xinxin first, and she must agree."

"Okay, I'll go ask her."

To avoid unnecessary trouble, the two brothers decided not to let outsiders know that Lu Jiaxin had left Sijiucheng again. However, he didn't plan to hide this from Ma Lili, because there were many people here, and he was afraid that someone would eavesdrop and spread rumors.

That night, Lu Jiajie was still on the night shift, and after get off work he went to Guangming Road to sleep. He was sleeping soundly when the door was banged. He got up reluctantly and opened the door. Seeing Lu Hongjun standing outside with a sullen face, he yawned and asked, "Uncle San, why are you here?"

Seeing him like this, Lu Hongjun was furious. He shut the door heavily and then scolded, "How dare you hide such a big thing as Jiaxin going to the ancient capital from me? You are so powerful now that you don't take me seriously."

Lu Jiajie felt that he was too wronged: "I called you as soon as I saw the note, but no one answered your phone. After discussing with my eldest brother, I went to find Su Heming to find out the situation."

In fact, he didn't call Lu Hongjun at all yesterday. He said this to prevent him from catching him and scolding him. If it weren't for his unreasonable father, how could Xinxin go to the ancient capital without telling them.

Lu Hongjun went to the meeting yesterday, and then had dinner with his direct superior. Because he drank, he went to bed when he got home. He received a call from Lu Jiaguang in the early morning and learned that Lu's daughter had gone to the ancient capital. The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. Lu Hongjun asked, "Where is Su Heming? Take me to see him."

Lu Jiajie said regretfully: "Su Heming went to Pengcheng yesterday. When I found him, he was about to leave. But Uncle San, don't worry. The two people who accompanied Xinxin were selected by Mrs. Xie. They are very capable and can protect her confidence."

Lu Hongjun was even more angry because Lu Jiaxin's behavior was a slap in his face: "Don't you live here? Don't you know that she is going to the ancient capital?"

Lu Jiajie said with a bitter face: "If I knew, I would definitely stop her with my eldest brother, but she didn't say a word about it."

After a pause, he said: "And I'm sure that Xinxin even hid it from Xue Mao. That silly boy can't keep a secret."

It can only be said that the younger sister has not only become more assertive but also knows how to hide her mind. In the past, she showed everything on her face. Obviously he is the older brother, but occasionally he has the illusion that he is the younger one.

Lu Hongjun suppressed his anger and said, "You ask for leave to go to Gudu to find them."

Lu Jiajie didn't like going to work, it was too boring, and he was happy to go on a long trip: "Uncle San, Jiaxin said before that the person was very familiar with our Lu family's situation, she should have returned to Fengxian to investigate."

Gudu is so big, where can he go to find someone, it's better to go back to his hometown and wait. It happened that he hadn't been home for more than two years, and he missed his father and uncle. This time, Uncle San will pay for the tickets and travel expenses. It's a good deal.

Lu Hongjun thought he made sense, and nodded, "Then you go back to your hometown and wait for her, I'll let Jiaguang buy you a ticket now."
