Sun Yuqi went into Grandma Mu's room and looked at Mu Qingzhuo. The little guy was sleeping soundly and snoring. After looking at her son, Sun Yuqi left the room.
"Yuqi, have you arranged a house in An County?"
"Well, Grandma, that small courtyard was left to me by Mom. I had no plans to sell it, so I thought of leaving it there for now. But I was worried that it would become dilapidated over time if no one lived in it, so I asked Aunt Lin, who used to work at our neighborhood office, to help me rent it out. I'll collect some rent for now, and also use it for maintenance and repairs."
Grandma Mu agreed very much. "That's right. No matter how good this house is, if it's not lived in for a long time, it will be ruined in less than two years."
At this time, Grandpa Mu, who had been out for a walk, also came back slowly. Seeing that Sun Yuqi had returned, he asked a few questions. When he heard that Sun Yuqi was renting out the house now, he was very supportive.
"Well, it's right for you to think that way, but you can leave the rent to Aunt Lin who helped you, so she might pay more attention to it."
Sun Yuqi also recounted what happened at Aunt Lin's house that day, and grandpa gave her a thumbs up.
"Yuqi, this Aunt Lin you're talking about is a remarkable person. She can remain sober even in such a precarious situation. You can tell she's a very upright person. Well, let me suggest that you and Jingran go visit her in An County during the winter and summer holidays. After all, she's not obligated to help you, but as the younger generation, visiting her every year is a token of your kindness."
After hearing what Grandpa Mu said, Sun Yuqi was moved. Grandpa’s idea was very good. After all, An County was not far from Beijing City, and it would only take a day.
"Well, Grandpa, you're right. From now on, every time I have a holiday, I will ask Jingran to accompany me to An County. However, you also know Jingran's work ethic, so it will be difficult to make the trip. I think it's more likely that I will go alone in the future."
In the hot summer, Sun Yuqi basically seldom goes out unless she has something to do. Instead, she stays at home with Mu Qingzhuo, reads books, and prepares lessons for the next semester. As she has been teaching for four years, Sun Yuqi is very familiar with the contents of the books, but she needs to prepare lessons every semester. This is a necessary course for a teacher, so she is now using the summer vacation to prepare for the courses after the start of the next semester.
Hearing the knock on the door, Sun Yuqi put down the pen in her hand, looked at Mu Qingzhuo who was taking a nap, then got up and left the house and came to the yard.
"Come on, stop knocking."
When I opened the door, I saw that it was Qin Xiuzhi who came back with the child, and behind her were Lin Muren and her son Chen Liance.
"You two met each other?"
Qin Xiuzhi pulled Mu Qingzhou, who was one year and three months old, into the yard.
"Just as I came back to the alley entrance, I ran into Mu Ran with the child."
Lin Muren also pulled Chen Liance, who had just learned to walk, and slowly walked into the yard. Looking at the two children, Sun Yuqi, she smiled and said, "It's summer time, and these two little brats don't even take a nap. Their older brother is still sleeping soundly!"
As soon as Sun Yuqi finished speaking, Mu Qingzhuo appeared at the door, rubbing his eyes with his chubby hands as he walked out. Mu Qingzhou shouted when he saw Mu Qingzhuo.
"elder brother."
Mu Qingzhuo also saw his two younger brothers and immediately became happy. For children of this age, friends of the same age are the most popular with them.
Sun Yuqi specifically asked Mu Qingzhuo to look after his younger brother, and then invited Lin Muren to sit under the tree in the yard. This was also Qin Xiuzhi's home, so Sun Yuqi did not greet her.
"Why did you come here at this time? It's only three o'clock and it's hot. Aren't you worried that the child will get a heat stroke?"
Lin Muren curled her lips. "How could they be so delicate? Boys are better off being tough. Don't you know? Your Mu Jingran has already made an agreement with our Chen Hao that after these two children turn five, their uncle will take them to the army every summer vacation to help them gradually adapt to the army's life and rhythm."
After hearing what Lin Muran said, Sun Yuqi understood what Mu Jingran and Chen Hao meant. Now Mu Jingran has retired, and Chen Hao has never served in the army. The most suitable people in their family are Mu Chenlan and Chen Hao's eldest brother. They are both current officers in the army, and it would be most appropriate to have them bring them into the army.
However, Sun Yuqi was still somewhat reluctant to let her son join the army, but she did agree with her son going to the army for training. Boys grow up through falling and fighting, and they also need to endure some hardships.
Sun Yuqi knew that Lin Muran didn't come here to chat. Sure enough, within a moment, Lin Muran said, "Chen Hao has set up a foreign trade company in the south and needs help from talented people. Didn't you say before that you would let Ye Mei go to the south to help us? I'm here to ask for someone."
Sun Yuqi laughed when she heard this. "What a coincidence! Ye Mei came yesterday and said her great-aunt's illness has almost recovered. She is going to the south to help you. I was just thinking about telling you about it. It will be cooler soon. Let's take the children to my grandfather's house and you can meet Ye Mei again."
Speaking of Ye Mei, Lin Muren also asked curiously, "Do Ye Mei's cousins want Ye Mei to leave home?"
Sun Yuqi sneered at this and said, "It's not that easy. The old lady knew that we had found a way out for Ye Mei, and she also knew what her son was thinking. She recovered in a few days. When she got up, she scolded her son and asked Ye Mei to come to me and arrange things for her."
Lin Muren smiled when she heard this and said, "No matter what, Ye Mei is the old lady's great-niece, the daughter of her nephew from her mother's side. Now there is only one Ye Mei left in the Ye family. If she doesn't make plans for her, I'm afraid Ye Mei will really be delayed by her own son."
"Who says it's not? But this person is selfish. Ye Mei's uncle is about to retire. If Ye Mei leaves home, then the job of taking care of the old lady will fall on the couple alone. With Ye Mei around, they don't have to take care of the old lady."
Lin Muren stayed at the Mu family until after five o'clock, and then he and Sun Yuqi rode their bicycles to Grandpa Chen's house. They first went to visit Grandma Ye, and then they found Ye Mei and told her to follow Lin Muren to the south in a few days. Ye Mei was very happy to hear that. It was not that she didn't want to serve her great-aunt in Beijing, but now her great-aunt was in good health and didn't need care. She could also go to the south to work and support herself.
