Chapter 614 - 597 Tang Sufen Faces Complaints
By the end of August, the list of Lu family members going to Hong Kong for the engagement party was finalized. Sister-in-law Lu would bring Lu Ping and Lu An, while Lu Zhang and Lu Zhenzhen wanted to go but were refused, though it was promised that they could go when Lu Jiaxin got married. Besides them, only Lu Shan would go; Da Mai had to look after the shop and wouldn’t be going, originally wanted Gou Dan and Nannan to go too, but Sister-in-law Lu thought it wasn’t sensible for Lu Shan to care by himself, so the proposal was vetoed.
Huang Xiaoyu knew Lu Hongjun was going to Hong Kong, so she came up with an idea and came to talk to Tang Sufen: "Mom, please let Uncle Lu take me to Hong Kong."
"Mom, the salaries in Hong Kong are really high. I heard even sweepers earn three to four thousand, and even converted to Hua currency, it’s over a thousand. If I go to Hong Kong and work there, you won’t have to worry about my siblings’ tuition and living expenses anymore, nor need to submit yourself within the Lu Family."
Tang Sufen wanted to visit Hong Kong herself but couldn’t fulfill that wish: "I also want him to take you to Hong Kong, but it’s not his decision. It’s Lu Jiaxin who handled the paperwork, and once they reach Yangcheng City, someone will guide them to Hong Kong."
"Lu Jiaxin doesn’t like me and won’t let me attend her engagement party, so how could she permit you to go? You might as well give up this thought!"
Huang Xiaoyu refused to give up and pleaded with Lu Hongjun but was still fruitless.
Lu Hongjun said, "Xiao Yu, stop fantasizing all the time, focus on your work, and then find a good family to marry into."
Take her to Hong Kong? How could that be possible? If he dared to suggest it, that girl would immediately turn hostile. Haven’t you noticed both the second and fifth brothers weren’t invited!
No matter how nicely Huang Xiaoyu spoke, Lu Hongjun remained unmoved and wouldn’t confront him, instead she blamed Tang Sufen: "If you had gotten along well with Lu Jiaxin from the start, not only could you have gone to Hong Kong in a couple of months, but I could have stayed there to seize the opportunity."
