Chapter 156

Chapter 156

Isn't it said that Anqing is an orphan with both his parents gone? Where did this father come from?

Bi Chunliu quickly hid the money and followed Qiuguo back to the slum.

At this time, the slum was very lively. Everyone gathered around the Liu family, wanting to see the missing father of Liu's son-in-law.

When Bi Chunliu arrived, he heard someone say, "Now that his parents are found, will Xiaoyue's husband still be a live-in son-in-law? I think his father looks quite impressive. Maybe there will be trouble between the two of them."

"No way? If Old Liu hadn't saved Anqing, he might have died long ago! If he's so heartless, then I don't want this son-in-law. After all, we already have three children, so I'm not afraid that he might have other ideas."

Bi Qiuguo and her eldest sister squeezed into the spot before she went home. Bi Xiahe held Nian Nian and Sui Sui tightly. They were joined by Aunt Zhang, Aunt Wang, and others. The Liu family's doors and windows were tightly shut, even the curtains were drawn, making it impossible to see anything. In this cold winter, everyone would rather freeze in the yard than go home. How persistent!

Bi Chunliu asked, "Aunt Zhang, do you know what's going on?"

Aunt Zhang didn't get the details. "I just heard this person say they came from Hong Kong, and they had their visiting permits in hand."

Aunt Zhang sighed inwardly, feeling a hint of pride at the same time. How could the Lius not even know how to save a child? Now, their grandchildren are grown up, and their orphaned son-in-law has suddenly become a wealthy man. Will all three of their grandchildren still have the surname Liu?

Bi Chunliu couldn't see anything outside, so she gave up and took the children with her, calling Xia He and Qiu Guo home. Liu Jiang was still dating Xia He, so if anything happened, he would definitely go home and let them know.

On the way, Bi Xiahe said anxiously, "Sister, what's going on with Liu Jiang's grandfather? If they're all from Hong Kong, wouldn't their family move there? I heard life there is much better than here."

Bi Chunliu wasn't sure either. "I don't know what's going on. But the moon in the sky is the same. It's not necessarily rounder outside than here. Life is the same everywhere, and we will get better and better. Just don't worry. Based on Liu Jiang's personality, he should come back to our house tonight."

"That's right! Don't worry, Third Sister. I think Liu He is the one who is confused. When he returns home, he will definitely not believe that his father is not an orphan!"

"Too."

Just as Bi Chunliu had guessed, Liu Jiang arrived that evening. Bi Weiguo and his family of three were also there. Wang Ying took her daughter and two nieces to their rooms to play, while the others stayed in the main room listening to Liu Jiang tell stories about his grandparents.

Anqing cannot be considered an orphan in the full sense of the word. Liu Xiaoyue's father and Anqing himself both thought that he was an orphan that no one wanted, but in fact, someone had thrown him there, and someone had been secretly keeping an eye on him. That person was the family that An's father and mother entrusted Anqing to.

Anqing's parents met and fell in love abroad, but Anqing's grandparents did not agree with their marriage, so their parents eloped and went to Nanshan, where they gave birth to Anqing. Later, An's mother unexpectedly became pregnant with her second child, but her health deteriorated. An's father had no choice but to entrust Anqing to a distant relative. He took An's mother to Hong Kong for medical treatment, but due to sudden changes in the situation, they had no chance to return to Nanshan. They wrote letters but never received a reply.

An's father had once hired someone to look for the family, but was told that the family had already fled, and there were no children in the group. Ever since learning that the child might be lost or even dead, An's mother's health has deteriorated. Two years ago, she fell seriously ill and fell into a coma, muttering about Anqing. An's father promised her that she could come to the mainland to find their eldest son. With hope, An's mother gradually recovered. But just before they set off, their second son, who had always been in poor health, fell ill and passed away last year. This dealt another blow to An's mother, and she fell ill again.

That's why Father An came alone to look for his eldest son this time. He first found the distant relative who had entrusted the child to his family. The distant relative wanted to deny it at first, but Father An had the document he had signed that year, so the distant relative said that his family couldn't raise the child and abandoned it. Seeing that Father An was angry, the distant relative said that he had not gone far that year, and he saw someone pick up the child and followed to see. The distant relative said that he had inquired clearly, that family had only one daughter, and later An Qing married that daughter, and now they have three sons! She enjoys much better life than he does in his own family! If she had followed him, she might still be digging for food in the fields now.

An's father immediately cut off ties with the distant relative and said that if he dared to say that he was involved with his family, he would call the police and arrest his two sons. After dealing with the matter of the distant relative, An's father found the Liu family.

Bi Chunliu thought to himself, what a life full of ups and downs...

Bi Weiguo patted Liu Jiang's shoulder and said, "What does your family mean now? What did Aunt Liu say? What does your father mean?"

Liu Jiang smiled bitterly. "My mom hasn't said anything. My dad is in a dilemma. My grandma said that according to my grandpa, my grandma is in poor health and might die at any time. She asked my dad to go see my grandma. After all, they didn't abandon him on purpose. After all, he still has Shengen."

Bi Chunliu had infinite respect for Aunt Liu. Her son-in-law, who had been raised by her family, had now found his biological parents, and she was so generous as to let him meet them! Bi Chunliu felt that she would definitely feel awkward for a while.

"So what are your plans now?" Xing Fei asked. Their bureau had also received a call from Guangdong Province saying someone was coming to Nanshan to visit relatives, and they should keep an eye on it. He hadn't expected the visitor to actually have some connection to his family.

Liu Jiang came to Xia He and said that Aunt Liu and the others also knew about this because they had already discussed it. Anqing Liu Xiaoyue and his wife would bring Liu Jiang and An's father and his party to Hong Kong to meet An's mother. Aunt Liu is old and Liu Hu is still young, so the two of them are at home.

Bi Chunliu and the others understood the Liu family's arrangement. The old lady was in poor health and wanted to see her eldest son, so they decided to go and see him to avoid any regrets in the future.

"My grandfather brought some people with him this time. He said they would make some arrangements there and then invest here to build a furniture factory. He also makes furniture in Hong Kong."

"Can we build a factory now?" Bi Chunliu didn't expect that he could build a factory here. This means that the economic situation has obviously changed for the better!

Liu Jiang nodded. He had previously worked at the Commerce Bureau, so he was naturally more aware of policy developments. "Sure. There will be relevant policies in January."

Bi Chunliu didn't pay attention to this matter, nodded and said: "Okay!"

"Brother Liu Jiang, will you come back to school in the future? Your grandfather is so rich over there, so you don't have to go to school to get a good job?" Bi Qiuguo asked with a smile, "If you don't come back from there, remember to write to my third sister and tell her that our class monitor saw her last time and said she's pretty. So I can introduce her to them."

Bi Chunliu glanced at Liu Jiang and scolded Bi Qiuguo, "Look at what you're saying! Liu Jiang, don't support Qiuguo, she's talking nonsense. You and Xia He should decide between you two. Whether you two are together or not, it won't hurt the harmony between our two families."

Liu Jiang was very smart. He knew what Sister Chunliu and Qiuguo meant. He smiled and said, "I know. I know what Qiuguo means. We just want to go and take a look. Besides, I worked so hard to get into university, and I don't want to give up halfway. Besides, I'm not interested in opening a factory."

After chatting for a while, Liu Jiang wanted to go home, and Bi Xiahe went to see him off. The others continued to sit at home and talk, and Wang Ying also came out of the house quietly.

Bi Weiguo handed the stool next to him to his wife and asked, "Are the children asleep?"

Wang Ying nodded. "Yeah, I'm so happy to have two sisters with me. I don't even need to comfort her before she falls asleep."

"That's what happens when there are a lot of kids. It's lively! Whatever one person wants to do, the others will follow."

Bi Weiguo: "Sister, do you think Liu Jiang's father will come back?"

Bi Chunliu: "I don't know either. Anyone would be confused for two days in front of such a huge fortune. Let's wait and see. By the way, Liu Jiang's grandfather's factory has given me some new ideas."

"What's your idea? Sister, do you also have money to start a factory?" Bi Qiuguo asked in surprise.

Bi Chunliu: "...I wish I had that much money. The economy is slowly opening up now. Do you know there's a shop selling fried dough sticks two blocks away? Dad bought them for us when we were little. They still sell them for a while in the mornings, and there are quite a few people there. I'm also planning to open a small shop and make some cakes to sell. I won't do it in secret. I'll see if I can get a business license or something."

Wang Ying was worried about her elder sister-in-law and said hesitantly, "Can it be opened? Let's not talk about other things later."

Bi Weiguo: "The last time we went to the movies, the people selling sunflower seeds and peanuts at the door weren't sneaking around anymore. It shouldn't be like that. Big sister, if you want to open a small shop, you need someone to watch over it, right? We all go to work, and if there's no one watching over the shop, how are we going to sell anything? Brother-in-law, what do you think?"

Bi Chunliu looked at Xing Fei. Xing Fei thought about his family and didn't have many relatives. "What your sister thinks is nothing. Everything is getting better now. We can only relax more and more. It won't be like before. I can't find anyone here. Can I ask my father to help in the early stage? Once everything is on track, let Zhaodi come to Nanshan and try?"

There weren't many relatives on either side, so Bi Chunliu thought he could only ask Zhaodi and her husband. "Let's find out what's going on first. I can also think of a pastry recipe while I'm here."

"I think it's a good idea! Big sister, if you can open a business, I will also think of a way to make extra money." Now, in addition to working, Bi Weiguo follows his master to prepare banquets for others, but there are still few people who can afford to prepare large banquets, so he can't make much money from this.

Bi Chunliu nodded, "Okay, then I'll give you a sample first. I'll make more and more in the future!"

The Bi siblings had not yet set up their stall when more than a month later, Anqing's Liu Xiaoyue brought Liu Jiang back from Hong Kong.

Liu Xiaoyue also came to Bi Chunliu's house and gave her some Hong Kong specialties.

"Sister Xiaoyue, is Hong Kong very prosperous?!" Bi Chunliu asked curiously, wondering when she would be able to visit Hong Kong in her life.

Liu Xiaoyue waved her hand. "It's true that Fanhua is more prosperous than our place, but it's also very chaotic. There are even people on bicycles stealing things! I was almost scared to death when I saw it."

"That's quite a mess!" Bi Chunliu handed the water cup to Liu Xiaoyue. "So what did you do there?"

"Actually, I didn't do much. I just visited my mother-in-law. She was in really bad health. She passed away a few days after we went there. My father-in-law said she could finally rest in peace. We then held the funeral there. My father-in-law said he would come over later and live with us in Nanshan in our old age. She's been looking for a house in Anqing recently. The old man gave her money to buy a good one."

"What did Liu Jiang and the others say later?"

"My mother said that Liu Jiang should change his surname, but my father-in-law said that Liu Jiang and Liu He are not young anymore, and it would be inconvenient for them to change their surnames suddenly. They are all his grandsons anyway, so let Liu Hu change it."

"I see..."

"So my Xiaofu is now called Anhu."

After Liu Xiaoyue left, Bi Chunliu also learned from her that the old man of the An family was going to open a factory. Haha~ Then she started looking for a suitable house!
