After arriving at Grandpa's house, Gu Lingxiao and Xiao Zhang took the initiative to clean the fish.

Lu Zhixia washed the other side dishes and then cut them all up.

Considering their appetite, I added half a bowl more rice than usual and cooked a full pot of rice.

In a good mood, I unconsciously hummed a song.

When Master Bai returned from the restroom, he noticed that the girl was in a very good mood today.

I wondered if they had finally broken the ice.

So he asked, "Is there some good news?"

Lu Zhixia then began to recount the events of the day.

Only then did Old Master Bai realize what they had done in the past few hours. He stroked his beard.

“You handled this matter very well; you didn’t do it all by yourself.”

"Grandpa, I've discovered that if you have connections, you should use them; it can save you a lot of trouble!"

"Hahahaha! You've really mastered it!"

"Now that I have some money, I plan to buy a house."

"You said before that you wanted to buy a house similar to this one."

“I don’t think that way now. I think if possible, I would like to buy a house by the roadside, so that I can do business and live there at the same time.”

"Your idea is good, but is it feasible to do business alone?"

“Speaking of this, I just read a newspaper a few days ago that said the national policy allows for individual business operations. Once I get a health permit, I can start a small business and won’t have to ride my bicycle around the streets anymore.”

Grandpa Bai smiled and said, "Since there are policy benefits, then you can do it with confidence! I think our country will get better and better, and the policies will become more and more lenient in the future."

Lu Zhixia has experience over the next 10 years, and indeed, as her grandfather said, policies are becoming more and more lenient, and everyone's lives are getting better and better.

The increasing number of self-employed individuals and street vendors has made people realize that you don't have to work a job to earn money; you can earn more by running your own business.

Opening a store is just the first step; there are many more steps to take in the future!

The fish was stewed for an hour and then served, once again receiving high praise from everyone.

Seeing them enjoy their meal made Lu Zhixia feel happy too.

Today's acupuncture went very smoothly, and afterwards I discussed the acupuncture techniques with my grandfather.

It was 9:30 p.m. when we left Grandpa's place.

I saw the moon tonight, though it wasn't very clear.

"Comrade Gu, I might go out to look at houses tomorrow, so please don't come to pick me up at home."

"Okay, then I won't answer."

Xiao Zhang couldn't help but interrupt them, "So what are we going to eat tomorrow?"

The two of them turned around and looked at him at the same time!

"Just pretend I didn't say anything, you can continue," Xiao Zhang quickly said.

Lu Zhixia smiled, "Let me see. According to the schedule, there should be meat for sale tomorrow. I wonder if the heavy rain these past few days has affected traffic."

Xiao Zhang couldn't help but interject, "If there's meat, shall we eat dumplings?"

“Okay,” Lu Zhixia replied.

Xiao Zhang thought of Zhou An'an, so he mustered up his courage and said...

"Could we invite that girl from earlier today?"

Gu Lingxiao said, "If you want to treat someone to something, then you should take the initiative to invite her. If she doesn't want to come, don't force her!"

Xiao Zhang, remembering that Zhou An'an was also a foodie, immediately patted his chest and said,

"Okay, I'll go get her. I'm sure she'll come."

Lu Zhixia thought to herself that Xiao Zhang was quite proactive, but she wondered if Zhou An'an would be interested in him.

Matters between men and women are best left unsaid, and she has no intention of interfering.

They both have very easygoing personalities, so it would be great if they could be together.

They reached the car and got in.

After sitting down, Lu Zhixia suddenly felt a little tired and closed her eyes to rest.

When I woke up again, I felt like I had slept for a long time, and I saw that they were both resting with their eyes closed.

I glanced down at my watch and realized that more than two hours had passed.

They couldn't bear to call out to her, so they let her sleep for more than two hours.

This made her feel very warm, and then she noticed that Gu Lingxiao had opened his eyes.

"Sorry, I just fell asleep."

"It's okay, we took a nap too."

"Let's get off the bus now!"

"good!"

So they each opened their car doors and got out, then walked towards the tenement building.

After a good night's sleep, Lu Zhixia was in a great mood, feeling as if all her recent worries had vanished and good luck was on its way.

They soon arrived at her doorstep. She turned to Gu Lingxiao and said,

"Don't forget not to come pick me up tomorrow."

"Um."

Lu Zhixia took out her keys and was about to open the door when the man reached out and pinned her against the door. Then he lowered his head and leaned in.

"Gu Lingxiao!"

"Um."

What are you going to do?

Gu Lingxiao reached out and removed the fallen leaves from her head.

"I don't know when a leaf fell from your head."

"Thank you for your help."

Gu Lingxiao withdrew his hand and then threw the fallen leaves into the trash can next to him.

"Then I'll go downstairs."

"Okay, be careful."

Lu Zhixia quickly unlocked the door with her key. The moment the man peeked over, she thought he was going to kiss her, which is why she made a sound.

It turned out to be a big misunderstanding. It seems I was overthinking things. I need to get a good night's sleep tonight.

Gu Lingxiao quickly arrived downstairs and saw that Xiao Zhang was snoring again. This kid falls asleep instantly.

I knocked on the window and only got on the bus after seeing that the person was awake.

Xiao Zhang rubbed his eyes, then looked back and realized that this was the upper limit of his intelligence.
