Chapter 291 Moving Things

With Lin Xiangdong's attitude, it was pointless to scold him. Hu Meili said angrily: "I really want to hit you!"

"It's been hot lately, so it's normal to be irritable. Mom, calm down." Lin Xiangdong poured tea for Hu Meili, "I know you're worried about me, but don't worry. There's really no chance for Zhou Kangmei and I to be together."

Lin Xiangdong coaxed Hu Meili with kind words.

But then, whenever Hu Meili saw Zhou Kangmei or heard her former colleagues talk about Zhou Kangmei, she would give Lin Xiangdong a cold look when she got home.

Hu Meili was unreasonable and Lin Xiangdong could tolerate it and always managed to coax her into submission, but Lin Xiangxi suffered.

As an innocent innocent, Lin Xiangxi lived in fear.

Hu Meili is not a good person. She takes her anger out on others without hesitation. When she is in a bad mood, she will kick even a passing dog, let alone her own troublesome little son.

"Mom, my second sister misses you so much. Dabao and Xiaobao miss you so much too. Don't you miss them?" Lin Xiangxi asked sincerely.

"Why not? I dreamed that Xiaobao came to see me last night." Hu Meili grumbled, "Without me watching over Dabao and Xiaobao, they must have lost weight."

"Then you can go to the staff quarters earlier. My second sister is a student now, and my brother-in-law is also going to study in Beijing. They have to move before school starts. It will be very troublesome to carry so many things. If you go, you can help out." Lin Xiangxi said seriously.

Hu Meili and Lin Xiangnan both ran to Beijing, and Gu Zhenhua was the only one living in the family compound. Now he has to leave too and go to school. The school will definitely assign him a dormitory, and the family compound will temporarily take back his room.

Big items like furniture and appliances cannot be moved and can be disposed of directly, but there are also many other small miscellaneous items.

Thinking of Lin Xiangnan's closet full of clothes and those fragile bottles and jars, Hu Meili felt a headache for her.

"Your second sister has a lot of junk. She wants to buy anything new she sees. Now she has to move, so she must be in a dilemma."

After worrying about Lin Xiangdong, Hu Meili now starts to worry about Lin Xiangnan.

"No one in the family is worry-free."

Human traffickers have been around in the past two years, and Hu Meili was really worried that Lin Xiangnan and his family would be too busy moving and wouldn't be able to take good care of the children.

Seeing Hu Meili's expression, Lin Xiangxi knew that this matter was going to happen, and continued to instigate: "Mom, if you are worried, you can take my eldest brother with you. If he is not at home, trouble will not come to him."

"You make sense." Hu Meili nodded.

Lin Xiangxi curled the corners of his mouth silently. When the tiger is not at home, the monkey is king. The big mountains above are all gone, so he is the one who is in charge of the family.

Just thinking about this, Lin Xiangxi's chest straightened up unconsciously.

But Hu Meili glanced at him and said, "I'm worried about leaving you alone at home. Let's go together."

"This is not a good idea. Are we all going to visit my second sister's house?" Lin Xiangxi said, "This is so embarrassing."

"What kind of visit? I'm going to help your second sister move. Clothes, shoes, bed sheets and quilt covers can be sent to our home in Beijing. But you don't know that your second sister bought those bowls, bottles and jars, and pottery figurines. It's very troublesome. I don't know how much she paid for them, but they must be not cheap. I would be heartbroken if they were broken..."

If the courier is unreliable, we can only rely on manual labor to move the goods.

Lin Xiangnan originally wanted to secretly hide those fragile little gadgets in the space, but when Hu Meili and the others arrived, Lin Xiangnan immediately gave up this idea.

Some things should be taken care of clearly if possible. This way, everyone can understand why Lin Xiangnan could become a wealthy woman.

How can you not be rich with so many little treasures?

Since they were his family members, Lin Xiangnan didn't hesitate to order them around, and each of them received a bunch of small items.

"Put cotton inside and outside the bottle, otherwise it will break."

While directing his younger brothers to pack, Lin Xiangnan discussed, "We can take the train earlier to avoid colliding with the large group of people who are leaving for school. It will be very crowded."

"Second sister, you can arrange it." Lin Xiangxi had no objection at all and asked in a low voice: "Sister, are these all antiques? Are they valuable?"

"It's not particularly valuable. The bowl in your hand was bought by me at an antique shop for twenty yuan." Lin Xiangnan said casually.

This thing has a normal origin and can withstand inspection. Lin Xiangnan secretly hides things that are too eye-catching.

Lin Xiangxi winked and said, "It's not expensive now, but it will definitely appreciate in value in the future, right?"

Lin Xiangnan did not answer directly, but gave him a look that could only convey meaning.

"After half a year of college, things are different. You've learned a lot in school. In this regard, your brother-in-law doesn't understand it as well as you do."

Just like Aunt Hua scolding her son for being a reckless man, Gu Zhenhua also knew nothing about this aspect. They have been in the army for many years, and if it were not for their family background, it would be difficult for them to think of collecting antiques.

In Gu Zhenhua's eyes, Lin Xiangnan bought bottles and cans for entertainment, just like buying clothes and shoes. He never thought about the future appreciation potential of these old items. He didn't understand it, but he respected it.

Hu Meili never thought that these things would appreciate in value. She didn't understand and didn't respect them. She scolded Lin Xiangnan many times, but when Lin Xiangnan moved, she still came to help move these things, for fear that the bottles and jars would be accidentally broken during the moving process.

But before they moved, when they were just packing their things, Dabao accidentally broke a small bowl.

There was a crisp sound of "click", which made several busy people raise their heads.

"No..." Lin Xiangnan was about to comfort her when he was interrupted by Hu Meili's words.

"Didn't grandma just tell you that this room is a mess and asked you not to come? Grandma hasn't been here for a long time, so her words are no longer effective, right?"

"I was wrong. I'll go downstairs right away." Dabao admitted his mistake quickly, but when he turned around, he kicked over a vase at his feet, breaking it completely.

"Gu Dabao!" Hu Meili stood up and wanted to catch the man and slap him on the butt to teach him a lesson.

As soon as Dabao saw Hu Meili's expression, he knew that something bad was going to happen. He jumped like a rabbit and disappeared in an instant.

Hu Meili was so angry at his behavior that she immediately chased after him, "Gu Dabao, stop right there!"

Only a fool would stop at this time.

Dabao not only ran downstairs, but also ran out of the house, ready to go play with other children for a while to avoid the limelight.

But he just breathed a sigh of relief when he left the house and saw Hu Meili still chasing him with a stick in her hand. "When you didn't eat well at noon today, I wanted to punish you. You have been holding back until now, and you are still trying to get away with it!"

"Ah! Grandma!" Gu Dabao was really scared this time and screamed, using all his strength to escape.

When Lin Xiangnan heard the noise, he stopped packing, stood silently by the window, and admired the beautiful scenery outside.
