It was already lunch time, and Third Uncle didn't want to cause trouble for his in-laws, so he asked Jiang Si to find a time-honored state-owned restaurant.
After lunch, Huo Tingzhou wanted to send them back to Xishan compound to rest.
Third uncle suddenly gave out an address.
"Xiao Huo, send us here. We won't be staying in Xishan Courtyard these days."
Huo Tingzhou thought that the old man was afraid of getting into trouble by entering the military area.
"Uncle San, I've already informed the guards at the gate. Your coming and going won't be affected in the next few days."
"Why don't we just live in Xishan Courtyard? It will be more convenient this way."
"No, no, I've already told them." Uncle San said fairly.
Jiang Si knew that her third uncle had a wide network of contacts, so since he said so, she would just let him do as he pleased.
Besides, the address reported by Third Uncle is also in Xicheng District, just one street away from the Huo family's old house, so it is quite convenient to live here.
But when she arrived at the destination, Jiang Si was still a little surprised.
She thought that the house where her third uncle lived was a small house or a house in a family compound, but she didn't expect it to be a courtyard house.
After looking for a few times, Jiang Si looked away.
She didn't let Huo Tingzhou send her off when they were just a few steps away, but instead arranged a job for him.
"Come back later and help me pack a few sets of clothes. Don't forget the things on the dresser."
"Oh, there's a suitcase in the closet, bring it over to me."
There was a combination lock on the suitcase, and Huo Tingzhou had no idea what was inside.
If she needs anything, she will just take it from the space.
Third Uncle was just about to say it wasn’t that troublesome.
There's everything here.
When he thought about giving the little girl a surprise later, he held back and said nothing.
The two of them had been together day and night during this period, and Huo Tingzhou was a little uncomfortable with the sudden separation for a few days.
However, the couple cannot meet each other before getting married, which is also a customary practice of the older generation.
No matter how reluctant Huo Tingzhou was, he could only keep it in his heart.
"Then you guys go in and rest for a while, I'll pack your things and bring them to you later."
Jiang Si nodded, and she didn't look away until Huo Tingzhou drove out of the alley.
At this time, Uncle Zhong had already opened the gate of the courtyard.
Just as they were about to carry their luggage into the house, a horn suddenly sounded behind them.
Soon, two Jiefang trucks pulled over.
The car door opened and more than ten burly men got out of the car at once.
Seeing the leader, Jiang Si was stunned.
This person was none other than the head of the branch hall who helped capture Master Yan Sanye last time.
Seeing that Jiang Si was looking at him, Jiu Ye smiled and joked.
"Why, little girl, don't you recognize me?"
"Master Jiu, you are joking. How could I not remember you? I was grateful for your help last time."
Hearing this, Master Jiu laughed even louder, "It's just a small matter. We are all family. Don't be so polite next time."
After saying that, he quickly gave his third uncle a great gang salute.
As a result, the ceremony was only halfway completed when he was glared back by his third uncle.
"We are on the street, please be careful. It's okay if it affects me, but don't affect my little girl Si."
"Alright, alright, stop standing around outside and come in and talk."
"Hey, nice, nice."
Jiu Ye responded happily and turned around to give instructions to the people below.
"Be careful when you lift things, don't bump into them."
As Jiu Ye finished speaking, the people who got off the car with him quickly climbed into the back of the truck bed and removed the tarpaulin covering the outside of the truck bed.
When Jiang Si saw the things in the truck bed, she was completely stunned.
"Third Uncle, these things..."
"These things are what I prepared as your dowry."
As Third Uncle spoke, he pulled people into the courtyard.
"Let them move the things first. Come over and take a look at this yard. Do you like it?"
What does it mean?
What does it mean that she likes this yard or not.
"Uncle San, you didn't buy this yard, did you?"
The third uncle raised his head.
"Didn't you say before that Xiao Huo would be transferred back to Beijing in a few days? So I chose a house with two courtyards for you."
"This place is not far from the Huo family's old house, so it will be convenient for you to come back later."
"When we have children in the future, we will have more space to live in."
