Chapter 567 - 550 Glorify the Ancestors (1)
Big Uncle Lu quickened his pace homeward when he heard she had returned. As soon as he arrived home, he entered his own room and failed to notice anyone there.
"Jiaxin, Jiaxin..."
When Big Aunt heard the calling, she came out of the kitchen and said, "Jiaxin is tired and resting in her room right now. Don’t call for her; you might wake her up."
No sooner had she finished speaking than the door to the room opened and Lu Jiaxin stretched lazily, calling out, "Big Uncle, you’re back."
Big Uncle Lu smiled and invited her in, "You girl, you didn’t even call me before coming back. I would have arranged for someone to pick you up."
Lu Jiaxin shook her head, indicating it wasn’t necessary, "I drove back, no need for you all to pick me up. Big Uncle, just now Seventh Uncle talked to me about the shrine construction. I put forward two conditions—if they agree, I’ll pay for it, if not, then forget it."
Hearing the two conditions she proposed, Big Uncle Lu fell silent for a moment then said, "Jiaxin, the village people probably won’t agree to your conditions."
Lu Jiaxin spoke indifferently, "If they don’t agree, they don’t agree. In that case, let the male members of the clan earn money and build the shrine themselves!"
It was also because Heng Mountain wasn’t far from here that she had come to visit the elderly couple. Mrs. Lu’s grave had been moved to Hong Kong and Lu Hongjun would definitely be buried in the Forty-nine City—unless there was something special, he would not come back again, so the construction of the shrine had nothing to do with her.
Big Uncle Lu said, "Jiaxin, if you were to pay for the shrine, everyone in the clan would be grateful to you."
