Xiao Aijun shook his head and said, "I just got here a while ago too. Luckily your train didn't arrive earlier, otherwise you would still have to wait outside the station!"
After a while, Xiao Aijun asked again, "Do you have any more luggage? I drove my dad's car here today, so it can accommodate a lot of luggage."
"Yes, we've packed up and shipped over basically everything we can use. Ah Xing, go check it out with Big Brother. If it arrives, you can pick it up together."
"Okay! Then I'll trouble you, big brother."
"Ah Xing is just too reserved. What's the problem with this?"
As he spoke, Xiao Aijun pulled Zhuang Weixing towards the place where they would send their luggage.
There was quite a lot of luggage, so the two of them took several trips to get it all back.
The car was packed to the brim, even the back seats were occupied. In the end, Zhuang Weixing had no choice but to let Lin Yizhen sit in the passenger seat while he squeezed himself in the back seat among the luggage.
It was a really uncomfortable feeling. After finally getting home, Zhuang Weixing couldn't wait to jump out of the car before it stopped.
Seeing Zhuang Weixing's expression, Lin Yizhen and Xiao Aijun laughed unkindly, causing Zhuang Weixing to look at Lin Yizhen with resentment.
Lin Yizhen felt uncomfortable being looked at by Zhuang Weixing and quickly suppressed her laughter.
Then he came to him and coaxed him in a low voice. Zhuang Weixing also took the opportunity to ask to unlock new postures in the evening.
Lin Yizhen was startled when she heard his words and quickly looked up at Xiao Aijun. Finding that he hadn't noticed them, she blushed and nodded in agreement.
Xiao Aijun, who had laughed enough, was moving luggage out of the car and saw the two of them still whispering.
He quickly said to them, "What are you two talking about? Come over and move your things."
After hearing what Xiao Aijun said, the two of them separated with red faces and opened the car door to get their things.
Han Xiufang, Lao Qian and others in the house heard the noise outside and hurried out to help move things.
After unloading everything, Xiao Aijun drove the car back to the military area. This was his father's car, borrowed temporarily, and he had to return it in time.
After watching Xiao Aijun leave, Lin Yizhen went to pack her luggage and tidy up her room, while Zhuang Weixing went to check another yard.
Before, Lin Yizhen lived alone and it was a temporary residence.
At that time, they just found a yard in the front to live in. Now that they have moved here, they naturally have to find a new yard to live in.
Although Lao Qian and the others had already done some simple tidying up, the furnishings and furniture in the yard and the house still needed to be customized and arranged by Lin Yizhen and the others according to their preferences.
However, since they just arrived today, they are still living in Lin Yizhen's original yard for the time being.
Han Xiufang was busy cooking in the kitchen. She had taken a special leave today to help clean the house and cook. Her godmother, Li Shumeng, had also wanted to take a leave, but the hospital was too busy and she had to give up.
But she still called to ask if Lin Yizhen and the others had arrived, when they had arrived, and how they were doing.
Lin Yizhen answered the phone one by one.
At noon, Li Shumeng left work half an hour early and went to a state-owned restaurant to buy two meat dishes on the way back.
Xiao Defeng has something to do in the army and won't be back for lunch. He won't be home until the evening, so he probably won't have time to come over.
Soon after Li Shumeng returned, Xiao Aijun also arrived home. Except for Xiao Defeng and his grandson, everyone else was there. While eating, everyone asked each other about their situation.
Ask Lin Yizhen where she went a few years ago? Which school did she apply to? Is it far from home?
Lin Yizhen answered their questions one by one, but did not say anything about her life abroad. She only said that the place was too remote and communication was inconvenient, so she did not write to them.
After hearing what Lin Yizhen said, the Xiao family members did not doubt it. They felt relieved when they knew that her school was not far from home.
Although it is convenient to live in school, it is still more comfortable to live at home.
After all, having so many people living in a school dormitory can be inconvenient. Furthermore, everyone has different living habits, and it would be bad to have conflicts later.
The Xiao family didn't know that Lin Yizhen had enrolled in a military academy and was required to live on campus. Except for holidays, it was not easy for her to go out during normal times.
They all thought she was applying to an ordinary school and never thought of letting her live on campus.
Lin Yizhen didn't expect that her godmother and others had misunderstood her, so she didn't explain her plan to apply to the military academy.
It was not until the next time Hu Tou came to ask which school Lin Yizhen was attending that the Xiao family realized that she was attending a military academy, not an ordinary university.
However, no one knows about this yet.
After eating here, everyone in the Xiao family went back. They had to go to work in the afternoon, or they would stay and help clean the house with Lin Yizhen and the others.
In fact, even if they didn't have to work in the afternoon, Lin Yizhen would not let them stay to do these things.
The yard she lives in now is too big to be cleaned up in a day or two.
It would be better to wait until she lives in the school dormitory and then let Zhuang Weixing find someone to clean it up. That way, any repairs or changes that need to be made can be made directly.
After the repair is completed, let the workers clean up the yard and just pay them an extra dollar or two.
Thinking of the somewhat dilapidated yard behind, Lin Yizhen told Zhuang Weixing about her thoughts.
Zhuang Weixing thought it was okay. He could repair ordinary walls and furniture, but he didn't have the ability to repair delicate ancient buildings like his wife's. He still had to find a professional to do it.
So, in the next few days, Zhuang Weixing went to inquire about the restoration of the ancient courtyard.
They had just moved here and didn't know anyone. The Xiao family lived in a military compound, and they didn't know the people who were renovating the ancient courtyards. Zhuang Weixing could only ask around among the neighbors.
Because there are courtyard houses everywhere in their area, these houses have been more or less destroyed in recent years.
The places that are habitable now were all renovated later. If you ask them, you will definitely be able to contact the craftsmen who renovated the courtyard.
However, you can't just go to their house and ask. You have to find a way to get familiar with them first, and then ask about the craftsmen.
Thinking that the neighbors didn't know they had moved here, they had to take some food and visit the neighboring families.
Thinking of this, Zhuang Weixing went to look through the luggage he brought.
There are some rules to follow when sending food. It cannot be too expensive, nor too ordinary.
Giving away something too expensive will arouse other people's greed. If there is a cheapskate among your neighbors, it will bring trouble to your family.
If the gift is too ordinary, people will not appreciate it. If you want to ask something, they will ignore you.
Zhuang Weixing rummaged through his luggage until he finally found something that satisfied him: two small bags of dried meat and two bags of fried peanuts. He took these out and packed them in cloth bags.
He hunted wild boar meat for making jerky in the mountains himself, and then learned how to make it from Ahua Po.
The taste is okay, but the heat is not well controlled, so it is a bit difficult to eat.
I bought fried peanuts at the supply and marketing cooperative in Xiyuan. Since they are a local specialty, they are not expensive. But in Beijing, peanuts are a difficult agricultural product to buy.
Paired with dried meat, it can be a great gift to give to others.
