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."
