Gu Tingyan and Gu Xueyuan, father and son, were not unaware of Gu Zhengshan's misery, nor were they unfilial. They just wanted to do this. Only by doing this could Gu Tingyan's frustration with his career setbacks be relieved. Gu Xueyuan, on the other hand, just watched the show, saying nothing and taking no action. He just watched his father silently torment the old man.
In fact, it’s not that you can say that Gu Xueyuan is cruel. He just feels a little upset when he thinks about some things that happened in his childhood.
The New Year was over and at the end of February, Sun Yuqi started working. Now Mu Qingzhuo has started attending daycare. There is a daycare in the staff quarters of the Public Security Bureau. Every morning when Mu Jingran goes to work, he takes Mu Qingzhuo with him and sends him to the daycare.
Mu Qingzhuo, who was already three years old, was not shy. When he heard that he was going to daycare, he jumped for joy and was looking forward to going to daycare as soon as possible. But no one expected that the one who was most reluctant to let Mu Qingzhuo go to daycare was Mu Qingzhou. Seeing his brother leaving home with his mother's new schoolbag, he immediately refused to do so and cried and made a fuss to go with his brother. The Mu family was in chaos. Finally, Mu Jingran had no choice but to take Mu Qingzhou, who was only two years old, to daycare as well.
Qin Xiuzhi looked at him helplessly and said, "That's good. If he stays with his brother and doesn't cry or make a fuss, it can give grandpa and grandma a break. You know, grandpa and grandma are old, and they are exhausted from taking care of two brats all year long."
Sun Yuqi is quite experienced in this regard. Her grandparents are old and are indeed unable to do the job. In the past, when the children were young and could not run, they could worry less. But since the two children could run and walk, they have never been idle. The old couple also kept following behind and chasing them. Sun Yuqi was worried every time she saw it.
On the first day of sending the two children to daycare, not only Qin Xiuzhi, but also Sun Yuqi was worried the whole day. Until she returned home in the evening and looked at the two brothers playing in the yard, Sun Yuqi asked.
"How are they? Did they cry or make a fuss in the nursery class today?"
Grandpa Mu chuckled and said, "Don't worry. Your grandmother and I went with them today and were waiting outside the whole time. Who knew that the two little guys would behave themselves? They didn't cry or make a fuss, but they did have a fight. But it's normal for children to fight, so your grandmother and I are relieved."
Hearing her grandfather say this, Sun Yuqi nodded and said, "Well, it's normal for children to fight. As long as they don't cry and embarrass the teachers, it's fine."
From that day on, the two brothers Mu Qingzhuo and Mu Qingzhou started going to the nursery class every day without fail, and Sun Yuqi and Qin Xiuzhi could finally relax.
Time quickly came to the end of June. After grading the test papers, Sun Yuqi began to tidy up her desk. The semester was about to end and the students in her class would be senior high school students when school started again. At this time next year, she would have to send off another batch of college entrance examination candidates.
"Yuqi, wait for me first. I'll be ready soon. Let's go back together. I have something to talk to you about."
After hearing what Liu Jingjing said, Sun Yuqi cleaned up the table and picked up her bag.
"Then hurry up, I'll wait for you downstairs."
After waiting downstairs for about ten minutes, Liu Jingjing came downstairs and the two of them pushed their bicycles and chatted as they walked.
"Tell me, let me wait for you, but what's the matter?"
Liu Jingjing hesitated for a while before saying, "Um, Yuqi, do you have 5,000 yuan?"
Sun Yuqi looked at Liu Jingjing in confusion.
"What's wrong? Did something happen?"
Since Liu Jingjing had already said it, she no longer hesitated and spoke.
"You know we were allocated a house when we came to Beijing, but it's too small. I'm thinking of bringing our child over to school. After all, the educational conditions in Beijing are much better than back home. But our current house is too small. A few days ago, Qi Aiguo and I saw a small courtyard house not far away. It seems suitable, but we're still a few thousand yuan short. I thought you might have one. If you do, I'd like to borrow five thousand yuan."
When Sun Yuqi heard what Liu Jingjing was talking about, she agreed.
"Well, it's not a bad idea. No matter when I have my own house, I can feel at peace. Whenever I need it, I can be ready."
Regarding lending Liu Jingjing 5,000 yuan, Sun Yuqi said there was nothing to worry about. After all, they had known each other for more than ten years, and besides, Sun Yuqi was not short of this little money.
Liu Jingjing felt relieved when she heard Sun Yuqi agreed. In fact, Liu Jingjing had hesitated for several days before speaking. If the owner of the courtyard house had not been in a hurry to make a deal, Liu Jingjing would probably have hesitated for a few more days.
At noon the next day, Sun Yuqi gave the 5,000 yuan to Liu Jingjing. Of course, Liu Jingjing also wrote an IOU. Although Sun Yuqi didn't care about the money, things still had to be done according to the rules.
The very next day, which happened to be a Sunday, Sun Yuqi was invited by Liu Jingjing to help look at houses. Sun Yuqi thought that she had nothing to do, so she agreed to go with her.
When they arrived at the courtyard house, Sun Yuqi took a look and found it quite nice. The landlord wanted to buy it because he was going abroad. Liu Jingjing and Qi Aiguo took a look and liked it very much. The final agreed price was 42,000 yuan. The couple put together their family savings over the years and the money borrowed from their parents in their hometown, which amounted to just over 30,000 yuan. That's why they decided to borrow money from Sun Yuqi.
This courtyard has twelve rooms and a small vegetable garden with some vegetables planted in it. There is also a well. Overall it is pretty good.
Today's courtyard houses are different from those seven or eight years ago. The prices have increased a lot. A courtyard house that used to cost around 10,000 yuan now costs 40,000 or 50,000 yuan. This is also due to the country's economic development in recent years. Prices have also risen a lot now, and money is certainly not as valuable as before.
Sun Yuqi stayed in the courtyard house newly bought by Liu Jingjing until the afternoon before returning home. As soon as she walked into Grandpa Mu's house, she saw a car parked outside the door. Sun Yuqi was very curious. You know, although the country has developed faster in recent years, there are still only a few people who can afford cars. Although she was confused, she didn't think much about it and pushed her bicycle into the yard.
Because the weather was hot, everyone was sitting under the trees in the yard to cool off. Sun Yuqi entered the yard and saw several people sitting there, including her cousin Xue Chenglin.
