“If you weren’t so young, your sister would tell you all these things, but not now. What you need to do is take good care of yourself, stay at home and grow up well. I promise you, I will finish my business and come back as soon as possible. You are my only brother, and I will never abandon you no matter where I go in this life.”
Meng Yunji's tears fell even harder as she threw herself into Meng Fuyan's arms. "Then...then come back quickly. I'll be a good girl and wait for you at home. You have to come back and pick me up soon."
Meng Fuyan's eyes also reddened, and she hugged Meng Yunji to comfort him, "Okay, I will definitely come back as soon as possible."
...
Since she had decided to leave, she definitely needed to tidy up the house, especially to leave some supplies at home.
This little guy has been living the high life with her lately. After she leaves, although Lu Jianjun will definitely not let him go hungry, he will certainly not be as well off as he was when she was around.
The first floor is still quite spacious. Since Lu Jianjun will be living here in the future, we'll need to prepare some furniture.
Meng Fuyan went and bought some furniture. The wardrobe was already there, and she also bought a bed and a table. She also added some decent chairs to the living room.
Next, it's time for supplies.
The kitchen cabinet contained 20 jin of rice, 10 jin of flour, 10 jin of cornmeal, a bag of dried sweet potatoes, some potatoes and Chinese cabbage, and only about 5 jin of cured meat and sausages.
What's left is a big jar of lard.
She prepared clothes for Meng Yunji for all four seasons. Children grow quickly, and this year's clothes will be too short next year, so she prepared two sets for each season, including shoes. Finally, she also prepared some fabric to keep at home, so that if she needed clothes, she could find someone to make them.
Meng Fuyan placed over a hundred catties of grain in Meng Yunji's room and locked it in a box for him.
"Keep these grains in your room. I've prepared cloth bags for you. If your family needs them, just tell Uncle Lu and take them out to cook for yourselves. If not, you can handle them yourself. These small cloth bags can be used to store the grains separately. If you want anything, you can take some grain to exchange with others, but don't take too much, and don't let anyone know that you have a lot of refined grains at home, understand?"
Meng Yunji nodded. These days, people don't dare to flaunt their good things, something Meng Yunji has known since childhood.
Meng Fuyan prepared a large box of snacks for him and put it in his wardrobe.
"Eat if you like, and you can always buy more when you run out. But it can only be a snack. You must eat three meals a day on time."
Meng Fuyan went out and exchanged a lot of small change, and put money in his wardrobe, bedside table, and in her room, as well as on the third floor.
"Here is a total of one thousand yuan. Remember these places. Take out the money when you need it. I will also keep some money and food on the third floor, including food in the cellar by the kitchen. I will tell Uncle Lu about all of this. If you want to eat anything, just tell Uncle Lu. He can cook. You can treat yourself at home."
Finally, Meng Fuyan took out a thick stack of tickets and handed them to him.
This is what she collected from various places over the past two days. Many of them were bought on the black market. Anyway, she has plenty of money and doesn't care about the price.
“Uncle Lu will be busy with work from now on, so you’ll probably have to eat at the canteen by yourself most of the time. Keep these tickets safe. Although Uncle Lu will give you some, we can’t use all of his tickets. Buy whatever you want to eat yourself. Remember how your sister used to take you to the supply and marketing cooperative to grab things before?”
Meng Yunji nodded, "I remember, I'm all grown up now, I can still buy things myself."
Meng Fuyan patted his little head, "Okay, I believe in you!"
Everything was arranged for them, including food, clothing, and other necessities. The grain in the cellar and on the third floor combined was enough to feed them for a year. In addition, they ate in the canteen most of the time, so the grain could last for a long time.
Meng Fuyan thought that she should be back by then. Although she didn't know what Gu Tingzhi was doing abroad, she thought that since he could get her there, as long as she found a chance to contact the Meng family and persuade them to invest in helping their relatives in China, Gu Tingzhi should also have a way to bring her back.
A year or so should be enough!
After making all the arrangements, Meng Fuyan packed her luggage, putting most of her belongings into her spatial storage. She only took two suitcases with her, temporarily entrusting Meng Yunji to Lu Xingye, and then went to Kyoto with Lu Jianjun.
Having been reborn for half a year, this was her first time setting foot on the territory of Kyoto.
In her past life, she spent a considerable amount of time here.
Returning here now, I have many feelings.
Lu Jianjun was nominally visiting relatives, so he would naturally meet with Lu Guozhong.
Meng Fuyan had just arrived in Kyoto and hadn't even had time to prepare anything when she suddenly faced off against Lu Guozhong.
"We're here! Was the journey smooth?"
The voice was steady, serious, and cold.
Listening to it, it seemed like there was no emotion involved.
This is the military region, not the Lu family home. Lu Guozhong lives in the military region year-round; he's a workaholic who has dedicated his life to his work and rarely goes home.
When Lu Jianjun came to visit his elder brother, he naturally went directly to the military region.
Moreover, Meng Fuyan's trip abroad was arranged by the military, so she came here directly for training.
Hearing the voice, Meng Fuyan turned her head and met Lu Guozhong's gaze.
Their eyes met, and both of them were stunned!
In Meng Fuyan's eyes, Lu Guozhong in front of her was much younger than she remembered. In her previous life, she was sent to the countryside in Northeast China. Later, Gu Tingzhi brought her back to the city and she tried to find a job. While working, she was also busy fighting wits with Wu Guozhu. So, at the beginning of her previous life, she had never met Lu Guozhong.
