Yang Niannian was no longer sleepy, so she started talking to him about what had happened recently.

"The houses you went to handle the formalities for have been demolished, and the demolition fee is over 900,000 yuan."

A hint of surprise flashed across Lu Shishen's eyes, "So many?"

Yang Niannian's mood had adjusted now, and she said with a smile.

"You didn't expect it, did you? Actually, this amount of money is not that much. It's the money from several houses. If the demolition was delayed a few years, the money would be much more. However, it's okay to demolish it now. Anyway, we made a lot of money and didn't lose any money."

After thinking for a while, he said, "Jiang Yang said we have to go back and sign the demolition consent form. Why don't we go back in the next two days? First go back to Haicheng to handle the formalities, and visit the old leader and An An, and then go back to my hometown for a few days to handle the road construction. Otherwise, my brother and sister-in-law will definitely feel uneasy."

Lu Shishen nodded, "Okay."

Yang Niannian talked a lot about every detail, and then suddenly thought of something and asked in confusion.

"By the way, I ran into Du Jiping on a blind date a while ago. Tell me, she hasn't even graduated yet, why did she go on a blind date so early?"

There was a hint of ambiguity in Lu Shishen's eyes, "Chief Du is about to retire."

Yang Niannian is such a smart person that she immediately understood the reason. There is a huge difference between the daughter of a retired leader and the daughter of an incumbent leader.

What Du Jiping is looking for now must be a family of equal status. Even if the conditions are not as good as the Du family, based on the current strength of the Du family, they can still arrange a very good department for the other party.

At least in these few years, Chief Du still had some prestige in Beijing. By the time his prestige was exhausted, the younger generation had basically established their foothold.

After sorting out her thoughts, she couldn't help but complain.

"Chief Du is quite shrewd. Even after retirement, he still has to make arrangements for his family."

"How many people who can hold high positions are ordinary people?" Lu Shishen's eyes were dim, as if he was also planning something.

Yang Niannian sighed, "You can't judge a person by his appearance, but think about it, if he is a brainless reckless man, how can he command the army?"

If a person is brainless, he can only be a cannon fodder at the front, shooting wherever others point.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but hug Lu Shishen tightly.

"Luckily you have brains."

Lu Shishen didn't say anything. He gently stroked Yang Niannian's shoulders and thought about something. When he came back to his senses, he found that the person in his arms had fallen asleep.

He looked at the peaceful sleeping face of the person in his arms, his mind full of thoughts, and it took him a long time to close his eyes and fall asleep.

Wake up to dawn.

For the first time, Yang Niannian woke up earlier than Lu Shishen. She looked up and saw that he was breathing evenly and sleeping soundly, and she couldn't help feeling heartbroken.

He must have been exhausted during this period, otherwise, according to his schedule, he would have woken up by now. I didn't want to wake him up, so I closed my eyes and slept with him for a while.

The two of them slept until ten o'clock. She got up and called Li Fengyi, asking him to bring Lu Ruoling and the children over for lunch at noon.

Knowing that Lu Shishen must not have eaten well during this period, almost all the dishes he bought for lunch were meat.

After Li Fengyi finished his lunch in the courtyard, he returned to the factory, while Lu Ruoling stayed here until the afternoon.

After sending Lu Ruoling home, Yang Niannian went with Lu Shishen to buy train tickets and went to the hospital to change the gauze.

Because they had to go to Haicheng first, they couldn't go back to their hometown with Li Fengyi. They could only agree on a time and let Li Fengyi take Lu Ruoling and the children back by train in a few days.

Early in the morning on the eleventh day of the twelfth lunar month, Yang Niannian and Lu Shishen boarded the train back to Haicheng. The journey was very smooth and they arrived in Haicheng in the afternoon.

As soon as I got out of the train station, I saw Jiang Yang and his sister waiting for me.

"Sister Nian, Brother Lu."

"Sister, Brother Lu."

As soon as Jiang Yang and his sister saw them, they rushed over like rockets.

Jiang Yang took the luggage from Lu Shishen and said with a smile.

"You guys are finally here. Yueyue's eyes are almost popping out of her head."

Jiang Yueyue hugged Yang Niannian's arm and said with a smile.

"Aren't I missing my sister and Brother Lu?"

Yang Niannian smiled and pinched Yueyue's little face. "Wow, Yueyue is getting prettier and prettier. Have you lost weight? There's not much flesh on your face anymore."

"Some people in school called her the little fat girl. Her self-esteem was hurt, so she started to lose weight and ate less snacks than before." Jiang Yang joked.

Yang Niannian was a little surprised, "So determined?"

Jiang Yueyue complained with a wronged look on her face, "The little train in school is broken. They nicknamed me "Little Fatty" and made fun of me with other classmates."

Yang Niannian was worried that Yueyue would be bullied at school, so she looked at Jiang Yang and said.

"Have you gone to school to talk to the teacher about this?"

Jiang Yang didn't take it seriously, "Sister Nian, don't worry. Someone called her little fat girl, and she had a quarrel with that person and made that person cry."

My sister is indeed fat, and what others say is right. It would be good for her to lose some weight.

Yang Niannian chuckled, "It's good that you weren't bullied. If someone bullied you, you must tell your brother."

Jiang Yueyue blinked her big eyes and nodded heavily, "Sister, I will work hard to lose weight and blind Mingming's eyes."

It was obviously the little boy who called her fat girl.

As the twelfth lunar month approached, Haicheng became quite cold. When the north wind blew, Yang Niannian shivered.

Lu Shishen wrapped the scarf around her neck more tightly, leaving only a pair of eyes exposed.

"It's cold outside, let's go back first."

Jiang Yang nodded and pointed to a place not far away. "I came here on a three-wheeled tractor. It's over there."

He walked in front and led the way, saying as he walked, "Weili knows you're back and said he'll treat you to dinner tonight. Let's send the luggage back first and wait for him to pick it up."

Yang Niannian held Yueyue's hand and followed him, asking, "Did Du Weili get rich? Why did he become so generous?"

Ever since Du Weili and Jiang Yang started a real estate business together, they have been complaining about being poor.

Jiang Yang was also unclear, "He has been acting weird lately, and I don't know what he is doing."

The four of them quickly arrived at the three-wheeled tractor. He put the package inside and turned to Yang Niannian and Lu Shishen.

"Sister Nian, Brother Lu, please just sit there for a while. The roads in our city have been renovated, so driving a tractor won't be bumpy at all."

Yang Niannian felt that riding on a three-wheeled tractor like this was a unique experience. She was about to step on the edge of the vehicle to get on, but before she could even lift her feet, Lu Shishen pinched her arm and carried her into the vehicle.

She glared at Lu Shishen angrily.

"Lu Shishen, your arm is injured and you're still hugging me. What if you pull the wound?"

When Jiang Yang heard this, he immediately asked with concern, "Brother Lu, are you injured?"

Lu Shishen didn't care, "It's okay, it's already scabbed over, it's nothing serious."

Jiang Yang said with a mature look on his face, "You have to be more careful and don't tear the wound again. I'll help you get in the car."

As he said that, he was about to support Lu Shishen's right arm, and Yang Niannian hurriedly shouted.

"It was his right arm that was injured."

When Jiang Yang heard this, he quickly retracted his hand and thought to himself.

"Let me carry you into the car!"

After saying this, she prepared to imitate Lu Shishen's movements of lifting Yang Niannian and support Lu Shishen's armpits.

Lu Shishen moved his feet to avoid Jiang Yang's action and gave him a strange look.

Jiang Yang also realized that he had a brain error. He was in the habit of carrying his sister into the car, and suddenly his mouth slipped.

He coughed awkwardly, "Um..."

Before he could finish his words, Lu Shishen supported himself on the edge of the truck bed with his left hand, jumped hard, and entered the truck bed.

The whole action was so smooth that Jiang Yang's eyes were dazzled.

Jiang Yueyue jumped around excitedly and clapped her hands.

"Wow, Brother Lu is so awesome."
