When Qin Zheng came home from get off work, he saw the mess in the house. Boxes of all sizes were placed in the living room and bedroom, hindering his progress.
"My dear, what are you doing?"
Xu Zhiyi in the room heard Qin Zheng's voice and immediately became happy: "Qin Zheng, you are back. Come in quickly, come in and help me." As he said that, Qin Zheng walked in immediately.
Looking at the bedroom where Xu Zhiyi's original dowry box was slanted and blocking the door, Xu Zhiyi was still stuffing the box in front of her.
"Zhiyi, are you packing up?"
"Qin Zheng, I think we still have to go to work, and we will be leaving in a month. In this month, we have to hand over our work and pack up our things, so we won't have enough time. So, let's pack up the things we don't need first, so that we can be more relaxed when the time comes." As he spoke, Xu Zhiyi's hands moved without stopping.
"Qin Zheng, please move the boxes I've prepared to the storage room. The two boxes in the living room contain unused tea sets, cups, and our books. The two boxes in the bedroom contain clothes, bedding, and other items. Please write the contents on the boxes so we don't have to open them later."
"Okay, I'll move over right away."
After Qin Zheng moved everything, the house finally looked less crowded, but with so many things missing at once, he couldn't help feeling empty inside.
The cupboard in the living room, once used to hold cups, was now empty. The bookcase in the living room was also bare. Even the dowry that had once been placed against the wall in the bedroom had been collected by Qin Zheng and Xu Zhiyi. In short, the only things left in the house besides daily necessities were clothes for daily use, a washing machine, a television, and food.
Xu Zhiyi finished tidying up everything and sat on the sofa with a dull look in his eyes. "Qin Zheng, do you think we should take the cabinets and other things we built ourselves with us? It would be a shame to sell them or give them away. Besides, we'll inevitably have to spend money to build new furniture after we move to our new home."
Qin Zheng looked at the cupboards, bookshelves, and some wall cabinets in the living room. "When we got married, the logistics department only gave us a bed, a dining table, two ordinary cabinets, and tables, chairs, and benches. The other cabinets in the house are ours, so we can do whatever we want with them. But, where do we get this cabinet?"
"How about we rent a truck and move all the luggage over there?"
Qin Zheng nodded and said, "This is also a solution. It saves us from carrying so many bags.
Then I'll find a truck driver in a few days and book him in advance, and we'll move all in together on moving day."
Xu Zhiyi agreed that as long as she had spiritual food and the cups and plates were not broken, she could survive anywhere.
Xu Zhiyi truly loves cups. In her previous life, she was an orphan with high hopes for a family. So when she earned her first salary, she bought two cups and a plate for her rental apartment. Since then, Xu Zhiyi's urge to buy cups and plates has been unstoppable.
In this life, Xu Zhiyi is even more so.
The cups and plates in Xu Zhiyi's hands now are not the same as before. The previous ones are all kept at the Xu family. The current ones were bought by Xu Zhiyi after she and Qin Zheng got married.
As soon as he saw these cups and plates, the emptiness in Xu Zhiyi's heart was filled, and Xu Zhiyi felt the warmth of home.
For the next month, Xu Zhiyi and Qin Zheng went to work on time and packed up their belongings after get off work. Qin Zheng even contacted a truck driver and was just waiting to move in a month.
Zhang Yumei was born in February, and it was now the end of June. Ever since the child was born, she had been completely focused on her. How could she even think about Xie Heng, or about packing up and moving?
The family was in a state of panic when it came to moving. Seeing Qin Zheng and Xu Zhiyi packed up and loaded their belongings into the car, ready to leave, Xie Heng and Zhang Yumei became even more impatient.
Xie Heng looked at Zhang Yumei coaxing the child and Xie Zhaorui crying loudly in Zhang Yumei's arms. He was furious and shouted, "Stop crying! Hurry up and make him stop crying. Aren't you annoying?"
Xie Zhaorui in Zhang Yumei's arms is Zhang Yumei's support for the rest of her life. How can she tolerate Xie Heng scolding him like that?
"He's just a child, isn't it normal for him to cry? Why are you yelling at him? If you have the guts, you can arrange a driver in advance like Qin Zheng did!"
"Xie Heng, since you don't have that ability, then just pack your things honestly and don't get angry at others here." With that, Zhang Yumei left the living room and returned to the bedroom, coaxing the crying Xie Zhaorui in her arms.
Xie Heng in the living room yelled and kicked over a stool.
Outside the yard, the originally reluctant farewell mood was broken by Xie Heng's roar.
Xu Chengde called Qin Zheng aside and warned him, "My dear comrade, you must be more careful in the future." He was originally supposed to be assigned to Hainan Island, the same position as yours, division chief of staff. But he didn't want to. He and his father-in-law, Zhang Dabing, spent a month trying to get him transferred back to his original unit.
You and Guaiguai should stay away from them from now on. If you can avoid contact with them, do so. Xie Heng is very ambitious, but his intentions are not pure. You should not make close friends with him."
"Dad, I remember."
Xu Zhiyi and Qin Zheng left by train, and Xu Chengde asked Xiao Zhao to follow the train to Shandong Province.
At this moment, after Xie Heng had vented his anger, he looked at the mess in the house and suppressed the anger in his heart once again. He went into the house to coax Zhang Yumei.
