"Ah, sister, is it possible that someone is taking advantage of you? Otherwise, whose house would be sold at such a high price?"

Eight thousand yuan? What does that mean?

In their hometown county, they could buy ten houses of the same size as the ones they live in now.

Wang Cuixiang also knew that this was the capital and the housing prices were more expensive than in her hometown in the county, but they shouldn’t be that much more expensive, right?

It’s ten times the price.

"There's a three-story courtyard in Houhai that's well-preserved and has clear ownership. Do you think it's worth the price?"

Wang Cuixiang choked and stopped talking.

The day before school started, Wang Cuilan took her three children to the Little Red Building.

I had lunch at the old man's house.

After dinner, the three children were taken upstairs to take a nap by the staff sent from above to take care of the old man.

Wang Cuilan was called to the study by the old man. "A Zheng, my wife, you will start school tomorrow. What are your plans for the three children at home?"

Wang Cuilan's heart skipped a beat. What did the old man mean by asking this?

Thinking of how much the old man valued his three children, she had a bad feeling.

Hearing this, he quickly said, "Grandpa, the three children at home are now at the age where they should be accompanied by their parents, but since Xie Zheng is not at home, I want to spend more time with them."

"I plan to apply to the school for a day student position this semester," Wang Cuilan said. "I'm just not sure if the school will agree. If not, please put in a word for me, Grandpa."

When the old man heard Wang Cuilan say that she wanted to apply for day school next semester, he was a little disappointed that he could not use the excuse that Wang Cuilan did not live at home to let his third great-grandson move in with him.

But I am still happy for the three great-grandchildren. Just as Wang Cuilan said before, the three children are still young and need their parents' company.

A Zheng is a soldier. From the moment he chose to put on that military uniform, he was destined to not be able to always be with his wife and children.

When it comes to parental companionship, the three children can only rely on their mother Wang Cuilan.

The old man really loves his three children. Since Wang Cuilan wants to spend more time with the children, he will arrange for them to go to school on a part-time basis.

He naturally wouldn't disagree.

A smile appeared on his usually serious face. "Okay, just write the application. I'll have someone contact your school principal and ask him to agree to your day student status."

"Thank you, Grandpa." Wang Cuilan said happily.

After talking about her three children, Wang Cuilan thought of her husband who was far away.

After hesitating for a moment, he asked tentatively, "Grandpa, Xie Zheng has been gone for almost half a year. I don't know how long it will take for him to come back."

"When he left, he said that if things went well, he would be back in about a year. I wonder if that still holds true now?"

"Of course it counts, and who knows, he might even come back earlier."

Thinking about the news sent back by his grandson, the old man said with a smile.

"Really?" Wang Cuilan couldn't hide her excitement.

"Of course!" I recalled the call with my grandson yesterday and the request he made just before I hung up the phone.

After lowering his eyes and thinking for a while, the old man said, "It just so happens that someone is leaving tomorrow to deliver some information to A Zheng. If you have anything for A Zheng, you can ask him to take it with you."

Worried that Wang Cuilan might be inappropriate, she prepared a lot of bags for Xie Zheng.

The old man added, "There are only a few of us going, so we can't take much with us. Take it easy."

Wang Cuilan nodded vigorously, "I know."

Because they had to go home to prepare things to bring to Xie Zheng tomorrow, Wang Cuilan and the three children did not stay with the old man for long.

After the children woke up from their nap, I took the three children away.

When I was leaving, I happened to meet Wen Yu, who was bringing her child to the old man's place.

Seeing Wang Cuilan and her two children, a dark light flashed in Wen Yu's eyes.

"Hey, Cuilan, why did you take the three children home so early? Why don't you stay with the old man for a while?"

She chuckled and said, "Don't you and your daughter usually get taken home by the old man's driver after dinner in the evening?"

"Why are you here so early today?" Wen Yu couldn't hide her curiosity.

Of course Wang Cuilan would not tell the truth. Although the old man did not ask for a confidentiality, it would be better if fewer people knew about sending gifts to Xie Zheng who was abroad.

"We came this morning, and we'll leave this afternoon if we have something else to do. Sister-in-law, you and Xiaogang can have fun at Grandpa's place by yourselves!"

"The triplets and I won't be here to play with you guys."

Wang Cuilan watched the three children climb into the car by themselves and waved to Wen Yu who was standing at the door.

Why the hell do I need you to play with me? We can do it on our own...

Wen Yu's face turned pale. Pah! She and Xiaogang didn't come to play with the old man.

They clearly came to show their filial piety.

I thought everyone came to the old man's place to eat and drink for free like Wang Cuilan and the triplets.

At this time, Wen Yu would never admit that she envied Wang Cuilan and her son for being able to have the extremely majestic old man, who was not very close to the younger generation, keep dinner for them.

Wen Yu was still feeling indignant, but Wang Cuilan, who had just returned home, was already busy as a whirlwind.

Ever since the old man said that she could bring things for Xie Zheng, Wang Cuilan thought that Xie Zheng needed everything she saw at home.

She couldn't make up her mind for a while, and finally Aunt Zhou saw that she was very conflicted and offered some advice.

"I heard that the food out there is different from ours. Usually, people from here can't get used to the food there. How about we have someone bring some food over?"

"Okay!" Wang Cuilan thought it was a good idea.

But there was little food at home, so Wang Cuilan was in a dilemma about what to bring for Xie Zheng.

Finally, I suddenly remembered the scene a few days ago when Aunt Zhou was making meat sauce in the kitchen and the three children were drooling.

Wang Cuilan made a decision.

Not only that, Wang Cuilan also wrote this interesting story in a letter and asked someone to take it back to Xie Zheng.

Three days later, Xie Zheng was on his way back to the dormitory after finishing his training when he was informed that someone was looking for him. His eyes flashed and he followed the person to a place that was specially set up to receive outsiders.

The whole process was watched by someone, and Xie Zheng and the visitor didn't say much, just a few simple greetings, "Uncle Xu, why are you here?"

"How dare you say that? Didn't you call home and ask them to send you something?"

He handed the checked package to Xie Zheng, "Here, your wife asked me to bring you the letter and meat sauce."

"Thank you." Xie Zheng thanked him and the moment he took the package, he quickly stuffed the small note in his hand into the hand of Uncle Xu opposite him.

Uncle Xu's heart moved, but he remained expressionless.

After giving Xie Zheng some polite instructions, Uncle Xu said goodbye.

Watching Uncle Xu's back gradually walking away, Xie Zheng turned around and prepared to return to the dormitory with the package.

On the way, I met several people from the same dormitory, who were also sent by the country to exchange and study with other countries.

They gathered around him, laughing. "Xie Zheng, we heard someone came to see you and brought you something?"

"Damn, don't ask, didn't you see the package in his hand?"
