After getting the guarantee, Lou's father felt much more relieved and pulled Li Qinghe to toast.
Although Lou Xiao'e was very disappointed, she still poured wine obediently.
Lou's mother wanted to say something, but her father touched her foot quietly, so she swallowed her words.
Even the nanny Aunt Zhang felt that Li Qinghe was ungrateful. With such good conditions, why did he want to go back to the remote countryside?
As expected, mainlanders are mainlanders.
Li Qinghe naturally felt her emotions, but after all, she was a member of the Lou family, so he frowned slightly and didn't take it to heart. There are short-sighted people who think they are smart everywhere, and he can't care about every one of them.
Not long after, Lou's father drank so much that his face turned red and his neck became thick, and he looked like he was in no condition. Li Qinghe also pretended to be drunk to save face, otherwise his father-in-law would feel embarrassed.
"Xiao'e, don't move, I'll do it."
Seeing that Lou Xiao'e was about to help Li Qinghe go to the room, Lou's mother hurriedly stopped her, saying that with her big belly, what would happen if Li Qinghe got bumped into something?
"No need, Auntie, just tell me the room, I can walk by myself." Li Qinghe was not drunk at all, so there was no need for anyone to help him.
Lou Xiao'e held his arm and said, "Mom, I can do it. Qinghe can still walk. I'll take him to his room."
As she said this, she helped Li Qinghe walk away. Because she was pregnant, she lived on the first floor, so it only took her a few steps to reach the destination.
"Miss, let me do it, please be careful." Aunt Zhang stepped forward to help with great tact.
"No need, Aunt Zhang, please go and clean up the table." Lou Xiao'e shook her head and refused.
After saying that, without waiting for Aunt Zhang's reaction, she pulled Li Qinghe into her room. Lou's mother did not stop her. Given their relationship, it was natural for them to live together.
As soon as the door was closed, Li Qinghe woke up immediately. He was about to have a cigarette, but when he remembered that Lou Xiao'e was still pregnant, he stopped.
"well?"
Lou Xiao'e looked puzzled, then she figured it out and gently pushed him, "So you are pretending."
Li Qinghe grinned and said proudly: "Of course, uncle has a good alcohol tolerance, I just rinse my mouth, I am not afraid of ten more."
"You are so bad that you even lied to my dad." Lou Xiao'e felt angry and amused.
Li Qinghe pulled her into his arms and sniffed the familiar scent, "You've suffered a lot during this period."
Lou Xiao'e lay in her lover's arms at ease, and said aggrievedly: "You still know, I don't know which heartless person wants to abandon us orphans and widows and run back. I really misjudged him."
"I have no choice. I promised you that I would come to see you often. I have a lot of things to do inland and I really can't leave." Li Qinghe could only comfort her.
"The inland is like that, what else do you have to do? Isn't it good for our family to be in Hong Kong? You have also seen how big the gap is between the two sides. Don't you want to stay with me..."
She really wanted to grow old with Li Qinghe. The baby would be born in a few months, and she didn't want the baby to be without seeing its father once it was born. She had to wait for several months before seeing him again.
And according to Li Qinghe, it would take her at least ten years to go back.
More than ten years, how many decades are there in a lifetime?
Li Qinghe laughed dumbly and said mysteriously: "You are looking down on me, right? You saw the bag I carried when I came here, do you know what's inside?"
"What? Is it money?"
She was just joking, but she didn't expect Li Qinghe to nod.
"That's right, Xiao'e is smart. It's all about money, a full five hundred thousand."
"Five hundred thousand?!" Lou Xiao'e exclaimed. Even though her family was a capitalist, she was still frightened.
Five hundred thousand may not sound like a lot, but don't forget that this was in the 1960s. The concept of a ten thousand yuan household did not appear until the 1980s. In those days, it was a great thing for a family to save even a thousand yuan.
Moreover, the exchange rate with Hong Kong City currency is very strong. These 500,000 are equivalent to 2 million Hong Kong City currency.
In this port city where the per capita income is only three or four hundred, wanting to earn two million is basically a pipe dream.
"Qinghe, you didn't do anything illegal, did you? Why don't you stay here and stay in Hong Kong, okay?"
After Li Qinghe said that, Lou Xiao'e became even more worried. She had lived in the inland for more than 20 years and was very familiar with the wage levels there. It was not allowed to do business privately, so where could she get so much money without doing something illegal?
She has only been in Hong Kong for three months, and on average, Li Qinghe makes over 100,000 yuan every month.
"Don't worry, there's no theft or robbery, it's very safe." Li Qinghe comforted her, and then said proudly: "Your man is very capable, no matter where he is, he can live well.
"I'll give you this money. You can use it for investment. It's useless to keep the money in your hands. You have to turn it into an asset that can make money. You also have to recruit some talents. Do you understand?"
Li Qinghe took out 90% of the money this time. After all, it was useless to keep it in his hands. With the consumption level in the inland, where could he spend it? Even if there was a place to spend it, would he dare to spend it? It would be better to give it to Lou Xiaoe and let her do business.
"Then I'll quickly bring the bag in."
When she thought about how she had casually put the bag in the corner before, she was terrified. That was five hundred thousand, or two million Hong Kong dollars.
Her family can't afford so much money, so how can she not care? She can only feel at ease when it's under her own supervision.
"Okay, don't worry, that bag is not light."
Li Qinghe pulled her back. No one could sneak away silently under his nose.
"You know Bai Yuechang, right? His family should have a bank. You can deposit your money there and exchange it for Hong Kong currency. It shouldn't be a problem, right?"
