Su Yan brought Lu Ting into the space, opened the three boxes, and let him see the money and gold inside.
Lu Ting touched it with his hand and said with emotion, "These Hong Kong dollars are actually one thousand Hong Kong dollars each. A stack of them is one hundred thousand Hong Kong dollars. Ten million Hong Kong dollars can fill up a medium-sized box."
"yes."
"Then why don't you put all this gold in a box?"
"Gold doesn't seem to take up much space, but a box filled with 200 kilograms of gold, can you lift it?"
Lu Ting smiled awkwardly, "I forgot that gold is dense."
"What are you going to do with all this gold?"
"Save it for later. Gold preserves its value, so you'll earn money if you buy it. Not only will I give them two gold bars each year, but I'll also give them thirty gold bars each when they get married."
"Two kilograms for each, so thirty kilograms makes sixty kilograms. Yanyan, you're so kind to the children. But there are only a hundred gold bars here, right?"
"Every time I go to Hong Kong, I'll buy some gold and store it in my space. By the way, how's the bodyguard thing going? I'm planning to go to Myanmar in March.
Gambling on stones and speculating in the stock market with good luck can make money faster than doing honest business."
"After the New Year, I'll send you a soldier king to drive you normally."
"King of Soldiers?"
"By the way, the soldier I found for you can beat ten men with his bare hands. His name is Xie Huashan. He turned twenty-six after the Chinese New Year and had to retire due to liver problems."
"What's the disease? It's not hepatitis B, is it?"
"No, it looks like liver fluke. It should be cured by now."
"Where is he from and how did he get this disease?"
"His illness might be related to his previous missions in the wild. I guess the raw water he drank in the wild contained worm eggs."
As long as it is not an infectious disease, she is not afraid, otherwise she would be asking for trouble.
"Okay, let him be my driver first. I'll have him report for duty during the first month of the year. How much salary should I give him before he's discharged?"
"Just pay him according to the driver's salary, and give him rewards after he completes the mission."
"Okay, I understand. By the way, where is he from?"
"He's from the countryside in our Beijing city. After he retired from the army, he went to the countryside to drive a tractor. His child is only three years old, and his wife is raising pigs at home."
"In the countryside? Then should we arrange a place for him to live? If they are willing to leave their children at home, they can leave his wife at our house to do the cleaning."
"Okay, I'll come talk to him then. We'll reserve a room for the couple in the front yard."
Now the problems of nanny and bodyguard are solved. After getting her driver's license after the Chinese New Year, she will go to Myanmar.
Su Yan prepared lunch together with her mother-in-law and sisters-in-law. Seeing that she had frostbite on her hands, Lu Ting did not let her attend the dinner.
After dinner, Lu Ting and Su Yan started giving out New Year's money to the children. Lu Yilan didn't expect that she would get one too, and her mouth opened wide in surprise.
"Thank you, uncle and aunt."
The others who received red envelopes also hurried to express their gratitude. When Lu Yiwei opened the red envelope and saw a stack of new money, she was so happy that she was at a loss for words.
Lu Yiman exclaimed, "That's a lot of money."
Chen Yuhe asked Su Yan with a smile, "Sister-in-law, you always gave ten yuan in previous years, why are you giving so much this year?"
Su Yan glanced at her and said, "Didn't you say I earn a lot? It would be nice to spend some on stationery and clothes for the children."
Lu Yu also joked happily, "Wow, sister-in-law is so generous, why don't you give some New Year's money to your brothers? Isn't there a saying that the eldest sister-in-law is like a mother?"
Lu Ting glared at Lu Yu and said, "You haven't been weaned yet. If you want New Year's money, go ask your parents for it."
Seeing that her cousins all received New Year's money, but she and her brothers did not, Lu Yiru looked at Su Yan at a loss.
"Mom, my brother and I didn't seem to get any New Year's money."
"It's for you guys, I'll give it to you later."
Before going to bed, Su Yan called the four children back to the master bedroom, took out a heavy gold bar from her bag and handed it to Lu Yiru.
"Here, this is your New Year's money."
Lu Yirou's hand sank. "What? Why is it so heavy?"
"Take it apart and take a look."
Lu Yirou took the gold bar, looked at Su Yan puzzledly and asked, "Mom, why did you buy gold bars for me?"
Su Yan didn't answer and handed the other three gold bars to her three sons.
"One for each of you. From now on, your lucky money will be a gold bar every year. I won't give it to you after you get married."
Lu Yiming jokingly said, "My younger brothers and sisters are four or five years younger than me. I'm really at a disadvantage."
Lu Yining retorted: "If you are afraid of being at a disadvantage, you can wait until we get married."
"Okay, I'm looking forward to getting married with you."
Su Yan twisted Lu Yiming's arm hard and said, "You little bastard, you're talking nonsense on New Year's Day. If you're not married by the age of 26, you won't have a share of the house in the future."
She doesn't want to wait until she's in her fifties to hold her grandchildren. Anyway, the family will hire a nanny, so she can hold her grandchildren as long as they like. The children's major life events will be resolved earlier, and she can let go earlier.
Lu Yiming shook the gold bar in his hand and smiled wickedly, "Mom, if I get married at 25, will I get an extra house? That way, I can find someone to marry as soon as I turn 20."
Lu Yian sneered, "Haha, big brother, you are dreaming! The marriage age for gay men is 22."
Lu Yiming put his arm around Lu Yian's neck and said, "You're growing up and becoming rebellious again. You like to go against your big brother. You're quite capable."
"Brother, you can't take these gold bars with you. How about I save them for you?"
"You don't have to save it. I'll find a box and put it in the safe in my parents' room. Mom, I won't be home for the New Year next year, so remember to make up for the New Year's money!"
