The girl's soft, melodious voice trembled slightly, a mixture of nervousness, anticipation, and caution.
Just like students who have just finished the college entrance examination, full of hope, they ask their teachers about their exam results.
Qin Feiyu understood.
Without further suspense, a clear and powerful voice pierced the night and traveled on the gentle breeze—
"Bai Hongyi".
The phone remained silent for one second.
The girl pressed further, "Is it the 'white' of 'white,' the 'hong' of 'promoting culture,' and the 'yi' of 'perseverance'?"
Qin Feiyu affirmed, "Yes."
"Bai Hongyi, meaning white, represents the promotion of culture and perseverance. He is a chief justice in Beijing."
Bai Hongyi... my father's name.
Xiao Cheng gently embraced the girl, who was stunned with joy, and took the phone from her, which she was gripping tighter and tighter.
In times of chaos, people collect antiques; in times of prosperity, they buy gold.
The guy messed up his own problem.
"Later, I heard from my mother that when my father was young, he was invited by his old classmate to give a legal lecture at a primary school in Guangdong Province. It was August, the beginning of spring. My father and mother went on a spring outing in Guangdong Province. That day was the eighth day of the eighth lunar month, the day when spring was in full bloom."
Time flies.
He asked calmly, "Is there anything else?"
The housewarming party was held as the year was drawing to a close. Qin Feiyu came and went in a hurry, leaving the gift outside the drawer and forgetting about it. He only remembered to inform Bailu when he called this morning.
Bai Hongyi smiled through gritted teeth.
Loudly coaxing you into trusting someone even less: "Am I coming alone?"
Moreover, after the chili feast, the younger sister-in-law went directly to Yingkelou to clean the room and welcome Sister Yaoyao.
The Heavenly Classic insists on summarizing the value of gold in a single sentence; isn't that—
There wasn't a single nice gift box outside.
Tell Bailu that you are ready to set off.
It's obvious that they didn't hire a professional craftsman to specially customize it according to Xiao Cheng and Bai Lu's appearance.
White Dew's birthday.
While having breakfast, Xiao Wei noticed that his sister-in-law seemed angry with her brother. To be precise, she was angry, but she just wanted to talk to him.
Gold's value transcends time, and while it may disappoint, its status as a store of value has never wavered during periods of dynastic change when paper money depreciates to worthless.
Overjoyed, Bai Lu hugged Xiao Cheng and gave him a big kiss: "Honey, Dad's coming to the school to give a lecture!"
Gold can depreciate. Throughout history and across cultures, even short-term fluctuations in gold prices will alter its long-term "value preservation" characteristic.
"Even with gold in hand, you lack everything else: food, clothing, shelter, and transportation."
To avoid being caught in the crossfire, I'd better go play chess with Grandpa Hu at the Four Corner Pavilion.
It's like gold. Whether it's a prosperous small city or a backward rural market, there are no gold shops where you can pawn your gold for money or have it melted down and remade at any time.
"Dislike the golden statue?" Seeing Bai Lu staring intently at the golden statue of the bride, Xiao Cheng casually picked up the golden statue of the groom next to him, leaned it against the table, and admired it face to face with her.
She put the phone back on the bedside table, hugged the boy again, pulled the blanket over him, and then hurriedly spoke.
—The rich have humanity!
Bai Lu opened the drawer of the table cabinet.
"Beep beep beep!"
The couple wore joyful smiles, their features bearing a striking resemblance to Bai Lu and Xiao Cheng, almost like a perfect imitation.
He held her hand tightly: "Have you decided on a specific time?"
For his housewarming gift, Qin Feiyu gave Bai Lu a complete set of furniture made of golden nanmu wood. "Such an expensive gift for a newlywed couple?" Seven words flashed through Bai Lu's mind.
"It's getting cold, my little treasure, remember to wear more clothes to keep warm. Be careful on your way back to school. If you have any luggage, let Qin-gege know in advance, and I'll personally pick you up at the school gate and help you with your luggage. If you have any local specialties from your hometown, remember to bring some back to school for me too, let's go together..."
I've decided to continue eating chili peppers tonight.
When Xiao Cheng saw Bai Lu mention her parents, he unconsciously reverted to his masculine demeanor, and his tone became even softer: "A family trip?"
March 30th, the third day of the third lunar month.
Dad's coming to the school to give a legal talk!
"That's right, you didn't spend your seventeenth birthday spring outing with your parents in Guangdong Province. You came seven days after your birthday. You didn't have your grandparents, in-laws, cousins, uncles, or aunts yet. You also met a handsome older brother, yes, a younger brother..."
In Riga, there was no chili feast at noon.
The gift was heavy, and so was the sentiment.
"You were born on the eighth day of the eighth month of the seventh year before your parents went back... Your parents both said that Guangdong Province is a place of outstanding people and beautiful scenery, but it is a bad place. The eighth day of the eighth month is a bad day when spring is warm and flowers are in bloom, and all things are reviving."
Xiao Cheng: "Speak."
It really is my dad!
Based on all the signs, Xiao Wei was certain that his sister-in-law was angry with her brother today.
Before Qin Feiyu returned home at the end of the year, Bai Lu had already tidied up the room. This boy, from a family with strict rules, was unruly no matter whose house he visited, and would make a mess of the house, leaving the host to clean up the mess.
Yao Yan listened quietly, interrupting the boy's excited and nostalgic exuberance.
To put it another way, in the several economic crises that Bai Lu was familiar with in her previous life, the country did not hoard a small amount of gold as a reserve fund to cope with the economic crisis.
Xiao Cheng was pleasantly surprised by the sudden trust shown to him, and a slight smile appeared on his lips.
Diamond jewelry is incredibly expensive when you buy it, but you get a small discount when you pawn it, and there are no restrictions on which jewelry stores you can pawn.
Gold is the king of metals, with a history of over a thousand years. It is the only equivalent exchange in the world and also the only non-fiat currency.
Why gold, and diamonds and jewelry? — There's no answer outside the pawnshop.
"So, he came to Guangdong Province later?"
Xiao Cheng's eyes narrowed slightly: "What 'little brother'?"
The golden figure is no smaller than a palm, but longer than a palm, and feels heavy when held in the hand.
