When she arrived at Uncle Xu's house, she found the door locked. She had no choice but to take advantage of a moment when no one was around and go back into the space with her child.
After waiting for about an hour, I saw Xu Yan coming back against the wind in the distance.
He Wan thought he had gone to buy daily necessities, but he had nothing in his hands.
When Xu Yan saw that she had come in the afternoon with the child in her arms despite the wind, she quickly opened the door and started a fire for her. While starting the fire, she complained that she didn't know how to be a mother.
"Why did you come all this way in such cold weather?"
"I came here just to wait for the notification letter. Look how thick the snow is outside. I heard on the radio that it will snow for the next couple of days, so I came here to wait at your house for a couple of days. Uncle, where did you go just now?"
Xu Yan suddenly looked away and said, "I... I'm going to see a friend."
Oh, right, you're here just in time! I was just about to look for you.
"What's up?"
"Do you want those things from the backyard?"
He Wan frowned: "Are you short of money again lately?"
Xu Yan smiled but didn't say anything: "Just tell me if you want it or not. If you don't want it, I'll sell it to someone else."
"Yes, of course I want it. Uncle, do you want money or food?"
"Money." This time, Uncle Xu didn't stand on ceremony and directly held out his palm: "Can you give me 50,000 for my things?"
He Wan was shocked. "Amazing! Absolutely amazing!"
Old Yun sold those things, and they brought in more than 50,000.
"Uncle, may I ask why?"
"Xiao Wan, please don't ask anymore, it's not good for you. But Uncle wants this money for the future."
Seeing that he said that, He Wan didn't ask any more questions. After all, everyone has a story, and if they don't want to talk about it, they must have their reasons.
Xu Yan also loves children. After the fire was lit, he held the child and didn't want to let go.
He Wan also took a short break during this time.
Xu Yan told her to go to the backyard and pick out her own things.
Looking at the things inside those bamboo houses, what else is there to choose from? These things wouldn't be a loss even if you gave him 100,000.
However, He Wan still rummaged around and put some of the things she thought were valuable into her space.
Uncle Xu didn't find out.
He Wan was also well taken care of by Uncle Xu here, but he, a grown man, wasn't very good at cooking. He took care of the child while she cooked.
Uncle Xu Yan said that he hadn't eaten such flavorful food in years.
However, he goes out every day for the past two days, sometimes to buy daily necessities, and sometimes to buy clothes.
There were also women's clothes. At first, He Wan thought they were for her, but some of the clothes were for teenagers, and some were for women in their thirties or forties. That didn't seem right.
However, seeing that her expenses had been so high recently, He Wan pretended to go out for a while.
Then he went into the space and told Lao Yun about Uncle Xu's antique business.
During a break in the roadshow, Lao Yun entered his spatial dimension and said, "Fifty thousand isn't much. How much do you plan to give him?"
"Seventy thousand, then you can have Lao Bai help me process these things I've picked out, convert them into cash, use some to stock up on goods, and put the rest in your account to earn interest."
“I don’t lack money now, so I’ll keep all of this for you to stock up on. But you should also keep some antiques. Now that you have Xiyao, you should also keep some for her. She will have children in the future, and I’ll also keep some for your grandchildren.”
He Wan clicked her tongue: "You know what, my family really is rich for three generations."
"More than three generations."
"Haha, Lao Yun, stop talking. Should I give him cash or gold bars?"
What does he want?
"They didn't say, so forget it, I'll just give you all in cash."
Seventy thousand yuan, that's not something you can fit in a pocket.
When He Wan returned with two large sacks of money, she was stunned.
"Uncle, here's 70,000 yuan. Count it."
What's there to count? Xu Yan has seen money before in his life, but these two sacks are not easy to carry. He hesitated and asked, "Can you exchange them for gold bars or something?"
He Wan felt a sense of familiarity, but she couldn't quite put her finger on it.
Gold bars weren't an option either, so He Wan replaced them with a whole box of gold bars.
However, this still troubled Uncle Xu Yan.
That day, Uncle Xu packed a lot of things and went out. He Wan thought he was mailing them to someone.
Before leaving, she specifically told me that there was rice hot in the pot, so I should definitely come and eat.
He explained it several times, and even hugged and kissed Xiyao repeatedly.
He Wan joked, "Uncle, you're making such a fuss over just mailing something. When you come back, remember to buy some of those pastries from the supply and marketing cooperative; they're really delicious."
Xu Yan smiled and nodded, then gave Xi Yao to her.
It took more than an hour for Uncle Xu to leave.
Old Yun was busy, and He Wan was bored, so she left the child at the villa and went to the post office, where she happened to run into Ding Shaoling on duty.
When I asked her, she coldly replied, "Not yet."
He Wan was too lazy to argue with her.
When they came out, they coincidentally ran into Wang Jianguo, who was loitering outside.
He Wan quickly stopped him: "Captain Wang, you wouldn't still be..." she said, pointing inside.
Wang Jianguo looked embarrassed and said, "I...no, I just came to ask if the notification letter has been issued yet."
"Captain Wang, which school did you apply to?"
"The agricultural university in our province."
"Sure, you'll be a high-ranking leader right out of here."
He Wan's praise made Wang Jianguo blush.
He pulled her along and said, "We've all received our acceptance letters and are going our separate ways. We don't know when we'll see each other again. Come on, come on, it's my treat today."
