Fu Hongxing thought to himself that nowadays, there's no need for letters of introduction or anything like that when going out.

All the educated youth have returned to the city. If possible, it would be best if Xiuhua and her family could come back.

Hearing her older brother ask this, Fu Xiuhua and Zhong Zihua exchanged a glance, then patted their daughter's head.

He replied in a low voice, "Zihua is preparing to return to Taipei. His parents have both gone back to work, and the house has been returned to their family."

In addition, I've discussed it with him, and we want to give Xueqi a good learning environment. So, after the New Year here, we'll go directly to Taipei.

"To Taipei?"

Fu Hongxing frowned, but in his heart he was thinking that it seemed he hadn't bought enough houses in Taipei.

If Xiuhua and her family go to Taipei, and they don't get used to living with their in-laws, or if there are any conflicts, they need somewhere to go.

If they were all in Taipei, then Xiuhua could go directly back to her parents' home.

But now they're planning to develop in Siping City, and he's not in Beishi anymore. He's not at all at ease relying on that brat Hong Guo.

Why don't he and his wife take advantage of Xiuhua's family's trip to Taipei to go to Taipei again and buy Xiuhua a house as well? This could be considered an extra dowry from her family.

After all, they weren't present at Zhong Zihua and Xiuhua's wedding. Although they sent gifts and money, they couldn't buy and send many large items.

This house I bought is a wedding gift for Xiuhua.

"Big brother, don't worry! I'll be fine. I received a letter earlier saying that my second brother and the others are also studying in Taipei. I'll have them come over for a good meal on their days off. I'll take good care of them."

Fu Hongxing and Ning Jing did not tell Fu Xiuhua about buying a house in Taipei in their letter. Xiuhua felt that since her younger siblings had not returned for the New Year, they probably did not have much money and were reluctant to spend the travel expenses. With the school on holiday, she wondered if she could even get a hot meal while staying in the school dormitory.

If she went to Taipei, even though she would be living with her mother-in-law and the others, at least her younger siblings could come over for a hot meal.

Hearing Xiuhua say this, Fu Hongxing waved his hand and said, "If you go to Beishi and live with your mother-in-law and her family, what kind of behavior is it to have your younger siblings come over for meals? It's not a holiday, there's no reason for them to come over as guests."

Don't worry, your siblings have a place to stay in Taipei, and they can cook for themselves.

When Xiuhua heard what her older brother said, she couldn't help but recall when she left home. During her holidays, she would hide in her dormitory, buy a kerosene stove and dried noodles, and spend her days either reading and doing exercises or cooking noodles.

Apart from a few grains of salt and a couple of drops of oil, nothing else was added to the noodles.

Even so, Xiuhua felt she had wasted her time.

These noodles are made from flour. Although my family's conditions improved a lot after I started school, there was still one meal a day that consisted of coarse grains.

That's like her now, eating noodles made from flour every meal.

But no matter how fine the noodles are, how can one endure eating them every day without any seasoning?

She projected her own past experiences onto her younger siblings, and immediately felt incredibly sorry for them who lived far away in Taipei.

Fu Hongguo, who was far away in Taipei, had just finished cooking rice and was waiting for Xiuchun to bring the stir-fried dishes to the table!

The four of them sat around the table, each occupying a seat, eating with one hand while holding a book in the other, engrossed in reading.
