Lu Fengjun, who suddenly received a call from Zhu Huicang, was stunned. Why did this child come without saying anything? He even found a hotel. She didn't even know that the child had arrived. How guilty was she?
On the way to Zhu Huicang's hotel, she called Lumi." Hello, daughter. Huicang is here. He's already at the hotel."”
"Oh! I'm busy. I'll hang up first!”Lumi replied indifferently.
"Hey, you child, have you forgotten how good Hui Cang is to you? Be more enthusiastic when you see him later. Otherwise, he'll think that we don't welcome him!”Rumi, didn't the two of them get along well before?
"Aiya, aiya, I know. I'm selling the goods and making a list. If you keep talking, the bill will be wrong.”Lumi did it on purpose.
"Okay, okay, go ahead. Oh right, we have to go for lunch together.”
"Aiyo, my daddy, let's talk when we meet, okay?”After saying that, he hung up.
She turned around and smiled secretly. When she faced the customer again, she had returned to her previous state.
Zhu Huicang was dressed up and waiting for Lu Fengjun to arrive.
The small town was not big. Lu Fengjun was worried that he would neglect the factory visitors, so he took a taxi to go there. After hanging up the phone with his daughter, he arrived almost in the blink of an eye.
The two of them were extremely polite when they met.
"Uncle Lu, please make a trip.”
"Why didn't you tell me yesterday so that I could prepare in advance? Did you book the train ticket in advance?”
"I drove here. I picked up my car in Beijing.”
"You drove here? On the way, from Beijing?" Lu Fengjun was a little surprised.
Zhu Huicang smiled and replied," Yes, Uncle Lu.”
"Aiyo, it must be almost 2,000 kilometers. How long did you drive for?”
"Less than two days.”
"Let's go and have breakfast." The small town was still relatively backward, and the hotel did not include breakfast.
Lu Fengjun took Zhu Huicang to the more prosperous central square. There was a famous "corner snack" there. They had ready-made dishes and could choose their own bill.
Lu Fengjun accompanied them for breakfast again, and Zhu Huicang suggested that they go to the new stall to take a look. Because Lumi was there.
Hence, the two of them took a taxi to 777.
"This is the place Lumi chose. Other than 777, there are two other stalls on the other side and in the middle of the alley. They are all rented. Lumi's taste was really good. She wanted to buy it, but in the end, she bought it at a low price and rented it out at a high price immediately after the renovation.”
"Yes, Lumi's always had a good eye.”He chose me.
One couldn't forget the alley of the shoe city during the day. It had a different scenery and unexpected noise compared to the night.
There were workers, Chinese businessmen, and Russian businessmen pushing two-wheeled carts to transport goods. Some of them were carrying notebooks, while others were carrying big bags. It was the first time Zhu Huicang had seen such a big bag. He estimated that it was a big luggage bag that could fit two adults.
"The people who carry this kind of bag are the small merchants and hawkers in the Far East region closest to us. They don't have to go to the cargo station to deliver the goods here. They pack them up and carry them directly through customs. Although it was a little hard, it was fast. Some merchants could go back and forth to the small city twice a week to get their goods.”Lu Fengjun explained.
"Oh, I see. This business model is quite interesting.”
"Yeah, this is also a major feature of the border region. Chinese and Russian people are called 'Master Dao', hahaha!”
When the two of them walked into "777", they still had smiles on their faces.
When Lumi saw Zhu Huicang, he waved his hand and greeted," Hi! Zhu Huicang!"
Zhu Huicang couldn't help but laugh.”
Lu Fengjun shook his head." These two children.”
"Come in and sit." Lumi said as he moved chairs for the two of them. "Where did you eat?"
"Snacks in the corner." Zhu Huicang replied.
"Did you eat the stinky mandarin fish with pancakes?"
"I recommended it. Hui Cang was worried that it would be a waste if he didn't get used to it.”Lu Fengjun explained.
"Did you eat pork trotters? Roasted pork trotters in the corner are delicious." asked Lumi.
"Do you think Hui Cang is you? He held the pig trotter in both hands and nibbled on it. Hahaha!" Lu Fengjun was really rude when he talked to Lumi.
"Try them all next time." Zhu Huicang still didn't join in the bickering between the father and daughter.
"Dad…you always expose me, okay? Can we still play happily?"
"Yes, yes, yes. Aiyo, I thought you didn't care about these things?”She turned to Zhu Huicang and said,"This girl is too big-hearted. She said that it doesn't matter what others say." She said she didn't care what others did. Look, she's being pretentious again.”
How could it be the same now? You're really my biological father!
As they were talking, a client arrived. This was Lumi's client, and she was personally receiving him.
"Hello, dear Masha and Gina! Have the goods from last time arrived? Did you earn money like I said?”
The two Russian friends couldn't stop smiling." Yes, yes, Lumi, thank you!”
"What are you going to take this time?"
"We still want to order the few styles from last time.”
"Oh! Gina, it's such a pity that there aren't even any samples of the spring designs left. I couldn't even keep a pair for myself. Last time, I advised you to get a few more boxes of each model, but you didn't believe me!”Lumi shrugged his shoulders exaggeratedly and spread his hands.
"Aiya, what a pity. What should we do then?”
"The new models have arrived. Moscow, Yekaterinburg, and Novi Siberia have all returned orders. The sales are quite good. Trust me this time and take more stock. Otherwise, you won't have any stock the next time you come.”
"Alright, alright. We'll take whatever you want this time.”
"I'm here to get the spring collection. It's selling well and I'm here to make up for the order, but I'm out of stock. Lumi advised them to take more of the summer style. The two foreigners had trusted Lumi wholeheartedly after the stock ran out once.”Lu Fengjun explained to Zhu Huicang in a low voice.
"Rumi speaks Russian so well! It sounds good." Zhu Huicang didn't care what Lumi said. He only liked to listen to Lumi's words. Whatever his girl said was pleasant to hear.
"That's Rumi's Russian, full marks!”Lu Fengjun was very proud." Even their Russian teacher admitted that his oral English was not as good as Lumi's. She spoke very fluently. The Russians praised her and asked if she grew up in Russia.”
Lumi closed another big order and locked the money in the drawer.
"How much did you sell it for?" Lu Fengjun asked.
Lumi couldn't help but laugh." The two of them only had 60,000 dollars on them, and I took them all.”
"You're too ruthless. Why don't you let them sell our goods? Why don't you sell some leather shoes and sandals? Alright, give me the list. I'll go to the warehouse to stock up. Huicang, sit here for a while. Let's have lunch together.”
"Uncle Lu, let me help you."
"Child, you came from afar. How can you let a guest work? Sit down and let Lumi tell you a story. She'll have fun selling stuff every day.”
"Okay, Uncle Lu. Let's not go out at noon. It'll delay work. We'll go after work at night. I still want to see my grandparents and brother.”
"Then I won't stand on ceremony with you. Let Lumi accompany you.”As he spoke, he took out the delivery order and went to stock up.
After Lu Fengjun left, there were only two people left. Lumi had specifically not asked Liu Xiu to come over today, waiting for this moment to be alone.
Zhu Huicang pulled Lumi's hand and played with it." Baby, you speak Russian so well." Can you give me a Russian name too?”
"Of course, let me think... Igor or, you can choose one!”
"What do you mean? Igor is…"
"Light, bright."
"What about Sergei?"
"Noble."
I like Igor." Zhu Huicang had a choice.
"Okay, my dear Igor, I like it too.”Lumi said in Russian.
"What do you mean?" He only understood his name and what his girlfriend said.
Lumi repeated in Chinese.
Zhu Huicang couldn't help but smile.
"I'll teach you some simple Russian when I have time. I'll also learn some English by myself. You've studied abroad and stayed in the United States for so long. Your English must be very good, right?”Lumi was playing with Zhu Huicang's fingers. When he wanted to take his left hand, Zhu Huicang dodged and put his left hand under Lumi's hand.
Lumi was calm and composed, as if he didn't feel that something was wrong with Zhu Huicang, and continued to chat with him.
Zhu Huicang was also worried that if Lumi saw her slightly scarred and red fingers, she would definitely ask for the root of the matter. No matter how he answered her, she would feel sorry for him. Therefore, he tried his best to hide some.
"Okay, you teach me Russian, and I'll teach you English.”
"But English is so difficult. I tried to learn it before, but the grammar is not easy to understand and the words are difficult to memorize. For example, I can't pronounce the pronunciation of this finger well.”As he spoke, he drew on his left finger.
It was too late for Zhu Huicang to dodge. His four fingers were almost burned from the pulp to the root. Because of the large area, even though they had recovered, there were still scars and some redness.
Lumi held Zhu Huicang's left hand and didn't say anything. He just looked into his eyes, as if he was asking for the reason.
Lumi didn't ask. She was just waiting for Zhu Huicang's explanation.
Zhu Huicang cleared his throat. I accidentally burned myself. It's all healed. It's just a superficial wound. The doctor said that the color will change in two summers... Lumi... Lumi, baby.”
"This isn't scalded, this is burned. I can distinguish between scalds and burns.”Lumi had indeed seen it before. Scalds were blisters, and there were basically no scars, but burns would definitely leave scars.
Lumi didn't say anything after she finished speaking. Zhu Huicang didn't give a reasonable explanation, so she kept quiet.
Zhu Huicang was completely defeated. He sighed and said frankly," It's a burn. I was careless. When I was melting the metal, the spray gun accidentally sprayed on my finger.”
Lumi listened quietly, his heart aching.
For his own words, for his own happiness…such a large area, how painful would it be! Zhu Huicang's love, painstaking efforts, and pain were condensed on the bracelet.
He actually didn't tell her for so long. He didn't tell her that it hurt, he didn't complain, and he didn't complain. She even happily put it on herself for praise.
Lumi held his chest and bent down. Lumi was in too much pain. Now, not only was his heart aching, but the pain had spread to his limbs and bones. Lumi could feel every cell in his body screaming in pain.
"Baby, Lumi! It was all in the past. It really doesn't hurt much."
Zhu Huicang stood up and moved his chair to squat down to look at Lumi's face.
Just as she was about to squat down, Liu Jie pushed the door open and entered.
"Huicang, sit down. It would have been good to call before coming.”Liu Jie didn't notice her daughter behind the table. "Where's Lumi? Why isn't this child accompanying you? Where did she go?”
"Hello, Aunt Lu, Lumi…"
Liu Jie walked closer and saw her hunched daughter." Lumi, Lumi? What's wrong with you?"
"Aunt Lou, Lumi's not feeling well.”
"Did you forget what you were eating? Is your stomach hurting?"
Lumi took a moment to calm down. He straightened up.
Zhu Huicang looked at Lumi's face. There were no tears, but his eyes were red.
"Mom, I'm fine. I had a stomachache just now, but I'm fine now.”
"I'll pour you some hot water. Aiya, I didn't make tea for Hui Cang.”Liu Jie didn't think it was a big deal.
"I'm not thirsty, Aunt Lou, just get Lumi some hot water.”
"Mom, I'm not drinking. Since you're here, I'll accompany Zhu Huicang for a walk.”
"Where are we going? It's not warm today. The wind is quite strong!"
"I'll go to Qingyun and take him to see the places where Uncle Zhu fought hard in the past.”After putting on his clothes, he ignored Zhu Huicang and walked out.
