Chapter 258 Lou Xiao'e's Struggle
In 1960, Lou Xiao'e followed her parents to Hong Kong and Kowloon, and then successfully entered the University of Hong Kong under the financial offensive of Lou Bancheng.
It's not that Lou Bancheng has a change of heart and plans to train Lou Xiao'e, he just wants Lou Xiao'e's dowry to be richer.
In 1963, Lou Xiao'e graduated from the University of Hong Kong with honors. At that time, the University of Hong Kong was a three-year program, and Lou Xiao'e was delayed for a year because of the different education systems in the two places.
After Lou Xiao'e's graduation reception, in the Lou family study, Lou Bancheng looked at Lou Xiao'e and nodded with satisfaction.
"Xiao'e, you know our family's situation. In a few years, your mother and I will have to return to Beijing to retire. What about you? What are you going to do?"
Lou Xiao'e knew that her father was just being polite to her. He must have made some plans if he could say such a thing. "What are your plans, father?"
Hearing this, Lou Bancheng acted like a loving father: "Xiao'e, you are already 24 years old this year. Your mother and I will have to wait a few more years before we can go back. If we delay any longer, Xiao'e will become an old maid! So I plan to keep you in Hong Kong!"
Lou Xiao'e, who knew her father's character well, could easily understand the meaning behind his words: he was planning to use her as a tool for marriage again.
That’s right. With the Lou family’s current achievements, Beijing no longer needs them, so they have to be used in Hong Kong.
At this time, Lou Xiao'e also understood why her father organized a graduation party for her.
"Father, I don't want to be separated from you and mother. I am willing to delay it!"
Four years of university life brought about a huge change in Lou Xiao'e's thinking. She was no longer willing to be a puppet in Lou Bancheng's hands.
"Uh... ahem...!" Lou Bancheng didn't expect his daughter to say that. At this moment, Lou Bancheng didn't realize that Lou Xiao'e's thoughts had changed. He simply thought that his daughter was being filial.
Capable, smart, and filial. It would be nice if it was a boy, but unfortunately... Lou Bancheng looked at Lou Xiaoe with a complicated expression, pondered for a long time, and then his eyes became firm again and he said:
"We have your second brother in Beijing, so there's no problem for us! You stay and accompany your eldest brother. He has been alone all these years, and it hasn't been easy! You should help him more!"
Although Lou Xiao'e guessed Lou Bancheng's plan, she still felt uncomfortable. She tried hard to be excellent, but still could not get recognition. Daughter... Ha!
"understood!"
"You've been busy with your studies these past few years, so I'm embarrassed to bother you. Now that you've graduated, isn't it time to think about your lifelong affairs?"
"Well, thank you for your concern, father!" Although she decided not to follow Lou Bancheng's arrangements, Lou Xiao'e did not reject Lou Bancheng's arrangements.
Lou Xiao'e knew her father's character very well. She knew that if she refused directly, her father, who looked so kind at the moment, would probably turn against her. Now, she didn't have the capital to turn against the Lou family!
Lou Xiao'e decided: until she was no longer able to support herself, she would just pretend to be nice and deal with things.
Unfortunately, Lou Xiao'e did not understand the structure and darkness of Hong Kong society. After working hard for half a year, she not only did not make any money, but also lost a lot of private money. Lou Bancheng also gradually lost his patience.
Just when Lou Xiao'e was at a loss, Lou Bancheng's sudden illness brought a turning point.
"Father, you really leave everything to my eldest brother. This is too unfair to my second brother!" In the ward, Lou Xiao'e pretended to be dissatisfied.
"Xiao'e, I know you have a good relationship with Jincheng! But your second brother has never left Beijing since he was a child, how can he understand business!" Lou Bancheng said with a wry smile
"It's not easy for my second brother to stay in Beijing alone all these years! At the very least, you have to give him a chance! Even if my second brother fails in the end, he won't resent you for it, right?" Lou Xiao'e was not willing to let go of her only life-saving straw.
After hearing what Lou Xiao'e said, Lou Bancheng fell into deep thought: Yes, when I return to Beijing in the future, I will only have the second child.
"you mean……?"
"Fight! Whoever wins gets it! As for Uncle He, at worst I can go and exchange my second brother back! I'm sure he won't mind!" Lou Xiao'e stated her purpose.
"You are thoughtful!" For more than half a year, Lou Bancheng had already seen through Lou Xiao'e's thoughts, but everything was under control, so he didn't care.
Now that Lou Xiao'e proposed to return to Beijing, Lou Bancheng hesitated. He was worried that once Lou Xiao'e returned to Beijing, he would no longer be able to control her.
After much deliberation, Lou Bancheng finally agreed with Lou Xiaoe's suggestion. After all, his son was more important!
This is how we ended up with today's scene.
A series of clanging noises in the house interrupted Lou Xiao'e's thoughts. Looking at Lou Jincheng who was constantly packing up the family property, Lou Xiao'e knew that her second brother was not going to come back.
However, with his current abilities, he is no match for Lou Jinjiang. It won't be long before this good second brother of hers will be driven back by his father.
What about myself? Should I just accept the arrangement and become a tool to arrange a family marriage?
Thinking of this, Lou Xiao'e had a headache! Originally, Lou Xiao'e had placed her hopes on Lou Jincheng, but now it seemed that she had thought too much!
However, Lou Xiao'e still hopes that Lou Jincheng can hold on a little longer.
"Second brother, don't be in a hurry to pack up. I came back to help you this time, mainly..." Lou Xiao'e did not hide anything and told Lou Jincheng about Lou Bancheng's decision.
"What? We were living in fear in Beijing, while he was enjoying himself out there. Now that things have finally gotten better, he actually comes back to fight for our family property!"
"How dare he come here! Don't worry, little sister. I'm here. Lou Jinjiang won't be able to take a penny!"
When Lou Jincheng heard that someone was competing with him for the family property, he became so angry that he started cursing.
He is alone in Beijing, living in fear, and Lou Jinjiang wants to fight with him for the family property? He is dreaming!
"Then, I will congratulate my second brother on his great achievements!" Looking at the confident Lou Jincheng, Lou Xiao'e gave up the idea of lecturing him.
After seeing Lou Jincheng off, Lou Xiao'e looked at the empty house and began to make plans for herself.
If you want to gain a foothold in Hong Kong, you need to have enough money and a strong backer. The reason why you fail to start your own business is that you don’t have enough capital and there are gangsters and police making trouble.
As for funds, Lou Xiao'e looked at the more than 20,000 Hong Kong dollars she brought back in her bag. This was all her savings! This time, Lou Xiao'e made sufficient preparations.
She planned to use all the money to buy antiques, jewelry, and other items, and then bring them back to Hong Kong to sell. Especially those jewelry, which almost no one in the mainland wears now. She could buy them at very low prices and would surely make a lot of money.
As for a backer, Lou Xiao'e planned to find a way from He Ping'an. After five years, she knew the power of this Uncle He in Hong Kong and Kowloon.
