"Have you prepared everything for school?"

"It's ready. Mom made new school bags for us. We have plenty of notebooks and pens at home."

"Yes, Big Sister has checked our winter vacation homework and asked us to pack our schoolbags."

"We are all ready and can go to school when school starts."

The little girls were talking at once, and Xia Changle joined in the conversation, only sighing occasionally.

"What happened to Changle?"

"Lu Lu has been gone for so long and hasn't replied to a single letter of mine. I've written several and we agreed to write one a day." Xia Changle pouted, feeling aggrieved.

"Lu Lu must be very busy when he goes home, or he may have been taken out by his third uncle. He hasn't seen your letter yet. Lu Lu always keeps his word, so don't worry." Xia Weian comforted him in a gentle voice.

"Dad is right, I have to trust Lulu. Even if he really doesn't reply to my letter, I will write to him on time!"

"Lulu must have been delayed by something. We two are the best in the world." Xia Changle said as he comforted himself clearly.

Xia Weian and Song Qingyun exchanged glances and smiled at each other.

The family talked for a while, and then Song Qingyun let the children go back to bed.

The couple returned to the room together.

For husband and wife, a short separation is better than a new marriage.

Xia Weian even forgot that he was going out that night...

Xia Weian: Ahem, I forgot there is tomorrow tonight.

The next morning, the couple talked about Lu Huailin.

"Judging from the time, Lulu should have arrived home."

"Yeah, why didn't he reply to Changle? Could something have happened to the Lu family?" Song Qingyun said worriedly.

Xia Weian nodded. "I remember we left Lu Zhe's office phone number. I'll give him a call and ask."

"Let me fight. It's more convenient for the bureau." Song Qingyun said.

"Okay, you fight. If anything happens at the Lu family, we can bring Lu Lu back and raise him." Xia Weian said.

Song Qingyun nodded. They both really liked Lu Huailin.

The couple chatted while preparing breakfast together.

After breakfast, Xia Weian sent Xia Ruokui and Xia Suihe to Sui's house, and happened to meet Sui Chengxiao who came to pick them up.

"Weian, is the matter at the steel plant over?" Sui Chengxiao asked with a smile.

He also knew that something had happened at the steel plant, but he didn't ask for details.

He felt that this matter would not involve Xia Weian in any way. Xia Weian had just started working, and given Xia Weian's character, he would never do anything against the rules or discipline.

Xia Weian smiled and chatted with Sui Chengxiao for a few words, then sent them home together.

"Brother Sui, I want to trouble you with something." Xia Weian let Xia Ruokui and Xia Suihe enter first, and then took Sui Chengxiao aside to have a private conversation.

Sui Chengxiao nodded frequently, thinking that what Xia Weian said made sense, and agreed before going back.

After leaving the Sui family, Xia Weian went to the black market. He wanted to see if there were any fruits in the black market, which his wife and daughters loved to eat.

Xia Weian covered his face and wandered around the black market.

There was someone selling apples, and Xia Weian bought a whole basket of apples without hesitation.

Seeing someone selling beef again, he decisively bought some.

There was an antique seller on the roadside. Xia Weian didn't know who he was, but he simply thought the box was pretty and Suihe would definitely like it.

Xia Weian bought the box and the jade bracelet inside it for ten yuan.

Xia Weian thought that the matter between Xia Ruokui and Han Chengwu had been settled, the bracelet would be given to Ruokui and the jewelry box would be given to Suihe.

Xia Weian put the things in Apple's backpack and walked out.

If he doesn’t find something suitable today, he will buy it for other daughters next time he sees one. He will prepare the dowries for his daughters before they get married.

As soon as Xia Weian left the black market, someone followed him...

When Xia Weian discovered that someone was following him, he quickly turned into the alley and slipped into the space.

The man followed into the alley and found that Xia Weian was missing. He stomped his feet in anger.

"What's going on? The fat sheep is clearly right in front of me, how come it disappeared when I turned around?"

“I thought I could get some money.”

Xia Weian shook his head in the space.

The black market is in a mess now. After buying things, those with a lot of money will be followed and robbed. It is not at all the same as when Shen Zhihe was here.

Xia Weian thought of Shen Zhihe and wondered how he was doing after going to the countryside in the south.

Shen Zhihe: I’m working hard on the farm.

Xia Weian used the space to get to an alley closer to his home, then came out of the space and quickly returned home carrying the backpack.

Song Qingyun's side.

When she went to work, she borrowed a phone from the switchboard room. The phone in the switchboard room could be used by paying the bill.

I dialed Lu Zhe's office number, and the phone rang for a while before it was connected.

"Hello, I'm Lu Zhe."

"Hello, Uncle Lu Lu, I'm Song Qingyun."

"Comrade Song! Is there something wrong?" Lu Zhe sat up straight subconsciously.

"I want to ask if you and Lulu have arrived home? Changle has written many letters to Lulu, but has not received any reply from him. We are worried about Lulu's situation, so we called to ask." Song Qingyun said.

Lu Zhe pursed his lips slightly. Lu Lu's training was a secret and he couldn't tell anyone...

Lu Zhe thought for a moment before speaking, "Lu Lu is not convenient to reply now, but he can see the letter Changle wrote to him."

"When will Lulu be able to reply? Did something happen to the child?" Song Qingyun asked nervously.

"Nothing happened. I'm not in a position to tell you what he's doing specifically. Tell Changle that if she wants, she can continue writing to Lulu. When Lulu is able to reply, he will reply to her as soon as possible."

Song Qingyun knew that there must be some unknown secrets in the big family, so she didn't dare to ask any further.

"Thank you, I will tell Changle, goodbye." Song Qingyun hung up the phone.

Lu Zhe raised his eyes, and he actually felt a little envious of Lu Huailin. He had such a good family caring about him, and the warmth they gave him was something he had never felt in his life.

Lu Zhe retracted his gaze and dialed the number on the training camp. After a while, Lu Lu was called over.

The little guy has only been here for a few days, but his body is already covered with bruises.

"Alin."

"Third Uncle." Lu Huailin looked lifeless.

"Xia Changle wrote you many letters."

Lu Huailin's grip on the microphone suddenly tightened, and he pursed his lips tightly.

"This morning, Changle's mother called me and asked about your situation. She said that Xia Changle hadn't received a reply from you."

"Uncle San, I did reply, but I didn't send it." Lu Huailin corrected.

He wrote to Xia Changle every day. No matter how tired he was from training, he would lie on his bed and write a reply to Xia Changle.

One letter after another, not a single day off, except they wouldn't allow him to mail it...
