Chapter 405 Contact with the country
But Hua Chunqiu had no evidence in his hands, and no one would believe him if he said this.
The most important point is that to this day, she still doesn't understand the other party's motive for framing her father.
There are only so many things that can be found abroad, and Hua Chunqiu doesn't want to alert the enemy, so he can only pin his hopes on the other party's hometown to see if he can find something.
After listening to Senior Sister Hua’s story, Lin Siqiao also felt that there was something wrong with this person.
In fact, it was just a piece of cake for her to bring a letter back home, but the problem was that she had to go abroad during the holiday.
As for the next holiday, Lin Siqiao still cannot return to China because the finals of the International Collegiate Programming Contest will be in March.
After thinking about it, Lin Siqiao decided to ask Ambassador Liao for help.
At that time, international long-distance civilian calls had not yet been opened, so it was impossible to contact the country without the embassy's intervention.
Thinking of this, Lin Siqiao called Ambassador Liao early the next morning.
Upon learning that she wanted to contact her family for something, Ambassador Liao agreed without hesitation.
The higher-ups had given orders early in the morning to do their best to meet all of the young comrade's requests.
She has been in the country for so long, and this is the first time she has taken the initiative to contact her family. Ambassador Liao was afraid that the approval procedures would be too slow, so he specifically instructed Secretary Jin to expedite the process.
Secretary Jin worked very quickly and approved the transfer procedures in less than two hours.
Because of the eight-hour time difference, it is already past six in the evening in China.
After the phone beeped twice, Lu's mother picked up the phone.
Today is the weekend, and the whole family went back to the old house. However, before they finished dinner, they received a message from the Shanghai Telephone Bureau.
The staff didn't know what had happened, they just told them to go to the telephone office immediately, saying there was an international long-distance call for their home.
When she heard that it was an international call, Lu's mother couldn't sit still.
When children are away from home, the ones who are most worried are the parents, especially when their sons and daughters-in-law are away on a long journey.
Ever since the young couple left, Mother Lu's heart has never settled down again.
She was looking forward to receiving news from the children as soon as possible, but when the news actually came, Mother Lu became even more anxious.
Look, he was urging Father Lu to hurry up all the way.
Before the phone rang, Mother Lu would ask Father Lu almost every three or two minutes, "What time is it now?"
So when the phone rang, Father Lu consciously handed the responsibility of answering the phone to Mother Lu.
It wasn't until Lin Siqiao sweetly called her "Mom" that Mother Lu breathed a sigh of relief.
The question was a bit incoherent, "Qiao Qiao, how are you doing abroad? Are you used to the food? Are you bullied by others? By the way, will you come back for the holiday next month?"
"Mom is telling you, don't feel bad about the plane ticket money. If you want to come back, just come back and I'll reimburse you."
Lin Siqiao felt warm at heart after hearing this, "Mom, I'm fine, don't worry, no one will bully me. The food in our school is pretty good, with meat for every meal, but it doesn't taste as good as yours."
As soon as these words came out, Lu's mother's hearty laughter came from the receiver.
Father Lu didn't hear anything, but seeing his wife smiling like that, he felt a little relieved.
Just as Mr. Lu signaled to Mrs. Lu to say a few words, Mrs. Lu suddenly raised her voice.
"What? Qiao Qiao, you're not coming back for the holiday, you...you're going abroad?"
Lin Siqiao nodded, even though Secretary Jin had vaguely told her in advance that the call had been encrypted.
But since the matter involved national affairs, Lin Siqiao did not explain too much, and made the excuse that it was the school's arrangement. She also mentioned that she had participated in the International Collegiate Programming Contest.
Mother Lu was unfamiliar with the term "programming competition", but she was familiar with the word "international".
While feeling proud of her daughter-in-law, Mother Lu was more concerned about her health.
In her opinion, nothing related to study is easy.
Thousands of words finally merged into one sentence, "Qiao Qiao, then you must take good care of yourself, don't be reluctant to spend money, eat when you should eat and drink when you should drink, understand?"
Lin Siqiao nodded and said with a smile, "Mom, I know. You guys are the same at home."
When they had almost finished talking, Lin Siqiao entrusted the matter of Senior Sister Hua to Mother Lu, who said as she wrote down the Hua family's phone number.
"Okay, okay, I got it. I'll call their house tomorrow morning."
"Thank you, Mom"
"Why are you being so polite to your mother, kid?"
As Mother Lu was talking, she suddenly remembered something. When Lin Siqiao left, he gave her a total of 11,000 yuan. Last month, Uncle Zhang from Pudong contacted her.
They said they had found two houses, and Lu's mother took some time to take a look. The location, size and price were all suitable, so she paid for both and settled on them right away.
Now that all the formalities have been completed and the house has been rented out, Mother Lu can finally put her mind at ease.
Lin Siqiao was also very happy to hear this, and immediately said, "Mom, I'll send you some money later, and if there is a suitable house, please help me keep an eye out for it."
Mother Lu opened her mouth and wanted to ask, "Are you still going to buy it?" But she swallowed the words back when they came to her lips.
The call was finally hung up with Mr. and Mrs. Lu giving reluctant instructions. Just when Lin Siqiao was calming down, Hua Chunqiu suddenly smiled and sighed.
"Si Qiao, you have a really good relationship with your parents-in-law." It's so good that it's enviable.
Lin Siqiao is not humble at all. The relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law has been a difficult problem since ancient times. Fortunately, she has a good mother-in-law and a good sister-in-law.
If it weren't for this, she might not have entered into marriage so early.
Although Senior Sister Hua has no intention of getting married yet, Lin Siqiao still gave her some advice as a person with experience.
Hua Chunqiu was at a loss whether to laugh or cry after hearing this and quickly dropped the topic.
"Didn't you say you wanted to remit money? Come on, I'll go with you."
Lin Siqiao nodded, and after packing up briefly, the two went downstairs. Lin Siqiao first went to the bank to withdraw 20,000 pounds, and then drove to the embassy.
The maximum amount of personal remittance is only 1,000 pounds. Large transactions like this can only be handled by the embassy.
Few people in the embassy knew about Lin Siqiao's stock trading, so when the staff saw the money, they were dumbfounded.
Ten thousand pounds is almost equivalent to 120,000 Chinese yuan. What kind of family does Lin the translator come from?
Lu's mother was also dumbfounded. She received the remittance slip the next day.
When she saw the amount marked on it was 112,000 yuan, Lu's mother thought her eyes were blurry.
No...how did this kid send so much money back?
For the first time in her life, Mother Lu felt that the money seemed a little hot.
At this time, the bank staff gave the remittance notes to Lu's mother.
Lin Siqiao wrote very clearly in the remarks that the 110,000 yuan should be kept by Lu's mother as a backup. As long as a suitable house is found, it can be bought directly. If the money is not enough, she will transfer more.
Of the remaining 2,000 yuan, half was given by Lin Siqiao as a gift to Grandpa Lu and Grandma Lu, and the other half was asked by Mother Lu to remit to Tongcheng for her own grandparents.
Lin Siqiao said it on the day of her wedding.
She accepted the dowry given by her grandparents, but they could not refuse the filial respect she should give in the future.
Knowing that they would not accept it if he gave too much, Lin Siqiao just gave them a symbolic gesture.
After reading the note, Mother Lu did not dare to delay and quickly remitted the money. She also bought a lot of things and sent them back to Tongcheng.
When the elderly people received Lin Siqiao's gifts, they felt indescribably complicated.
Lin Siqiao had no idea that his kindness would bring such a huge psychological impact to them.
She was currently driving her senior sister Hua to check in at various scenic spots in London.
Speaking of which, Lin Siqiao has been to London City so many times in her later life, and this time she has lived here for nearly three months, but this is her first time to go back to these places.
The day before leaving, Lin Siqiao took Senior Sister Hua to visit Cambridge University.
They toured the River Cam together on a boat and visited the chapel, the most spectacular Gothic building of King's College, where they took many precious photos.
The time we spend together is always short, and three days passed in a flash.
In the airport lobby, Hua Chunqiu turned around and hugged Lin Siqiao.
In the past few years, she has been suppressing herself.
Unexpectedly, this trip to the country actually allowed Hua Chunqiu to find the long-lost happiness.
"Thank you, Siqiao"
Hua Chunqiu hugged her and said reluctantly, "When you are free, you must come to visit me."
Lin Siqiao smiled and said yes, she would go if she had the chance.
But I probably won't be free recently, because the trials for the programming competition will be held in about ten days.
Lin Siqiao needs to hurry up and practice more. After all, she is alone and it is true that her physical strength cannot keep up in the second half.
For this purpose, Lin Siqiao made a special training schedule after returning.
However, before she could start training, Teacher Frank came over.
