It was a clear autumn day when I left. I set foot on the Chinese mainland again. In just one month, it felt like the time to put on a cotton-padded jacket. I felt inexplicably excited when I heard and saw the familiar Beijing flavor.
No matter how wonderful a foreign country is, it cannot compare to our motherland. After the prosperity has faded, this city with a thousand years of history and culture still stands tall. It is still an ancient capital.
And she was finally able to take off her disguise, and she was no longer Miao Xiaoqiao but Zhou Jiao.
Submit the report and report on the progress of this mission.
When she and her father Zhou Xiaozheng arrived home, it was already dusk and the lights were on.
"I'm back."
"Welcome home."
The couple smiled at each other.
"Are you starving? Let's talk after you eat."
Zhou Jiao and her daughter readily agreed, without mentioning that they had already eaten before reporting inside.
Home is still that warm home.
There is a father, a mother, a lover, and a son who never comes home.
After dinner, the family gathered in the living room.
Previously, it was for reporting official matters, but now it has been changed to reporting personal matters.
"How is Xiaoming's wife?"
It was Miao Lishan who spoke first without hesitation.
Zhou Jiao smiled approvingly, "Great!"
"Huh? The fact that you can say these two words shows that you are very good."
Zhou Jiao nodded in agreement. "She's almost 1.7 meters tall, only 22 years old, young and beautiful. Her words and actions are very much like my aunt, which makes people feel very comfortable."
"Finally, the wait wasn't in vain."
Zhou Jiao smiled and didn't correct her mother's mistake. "I gave Xiao Ming ten sets of jewelry. I won't be able to go to their wedding at the end of the year, so I'll give him the gift first and mail the other gifts later."
"It should be." Miao Lishan nodded in agreement. "It cost quite a bit of money, didn't it?"
Zhou Jiao glanced at the two men present. "I heard from Wuyi that his uncle was getting married at the end of the year, so I brought five sets of jade and jade jewelry. Later, I picked out five sets in Ginza to make it perfect."
"Still got money?"
Zhou Jiao touched her nose and said, "It's gone. I spent it all."
This was half true, half false! Local prices were exorbitant, so she asked her son to sell a few wild ginseng roots that were less than 30 years old. Later, she did something bad herself.
She didn't even let the Russians go, let alone the Japanese.
As for the foreign currency in the space?
Except for some cash that I kept as a souvenir, I invested it all.
In short, the space she had deliberately cleared was full again. She suspected that if she told the truth later, she would be beaten up by the father-in-law and son-in-law in front of her.
To say or not to say?
She had been pondering it for a long time.
"It's okay. The family savings will last for several years."
Hearing Miao Lishan's comfort, Zhou Jiao didn't feel much at ease. Her eyes flickered and she nodded with a smile, "Then I'll keep some."
Miao Lishan pointed to the luggage boxes in the living room and asked, "What did you bring back? Was it just for you, or for someone else? Did your colleagues who went with you also buy a lot?"
Zhou Jiao glanced at Zhou Xiaozheng, who was sitting at the top, and Zhang Guoqing, who was sitting beside him. "Hey, I think I brought back the most. Mom, not many people knew I was actually going abroad this time."
As she spoke, she opened her bag, took out a folded list and handed it to her, "This is the delivery note. Ask someone to go to the Friendship Store tomorrow. After picking up the goods, leave them at the old house first."
Nowadays, electrical appliances brought back from abroad, such as televisions, laundry machines, refrigerators, dual-card radios, etc., must be picked up at the Friendship Store with a receipt after returning to China.
Miao Lishan took it with one hand and said with a hiss, "Why are there so many?"
"Ping An is getting married next year, and I've already made all the arrangements. The rest of the house and the old house will be replaced with water, and you can give the extra to whoever you like."
Zhang Guoqing couldn't help but give a thumbs up: "In one word, rich!"
Zhou Jiao laughed heartily. She hadn't even mentioned the extravagance yet: she had imported an SUV and a motorcycle, and would pick them up at customs in two days.
During the previous report, Zhou Xiaozheng had heard his daughter-in-law mention in the meeting that Miao Miao Tianming had given her a car. At this moment, he smiled meaningfully at his son-in-law.
His daughter has already scared a lot of people to death. Go ahead and scare them. Being scared more often will make your heart stronger!
Too much talk will lead to mistakes.
If you want to deal with her man, you should go back to your room and talk about it.
Zhou Jiao ignored the exchange of glances between the father-in-law and son-in-law, stood up decisively, took back the luggage bag, placed it on the coffee table, and unzipped it with a "swish".
"Mom, I bought you a lot of things, but I didn't buy you any skincare products. The ones I made myself are definitely better than any world-famous brands."
"These boxes are filled with jewelry and perfume. The ones with labels are what Xiaoming bought for you. Did you see those two cartons? One is full of bags, and the other is full of clothes.
Mi Anqi is inside. Oh, Mi Anqi is Xiao Ming’s wife. She bought you two bags, both of which are placed inside. She also bought you two thick scarves.”
Zhou Jiao said, and worriedly warned her, "Don't give them to others. They are luxury goods." She emphasized, "One can buy a small courtyard."
Miao Lishan wasn't surprised at all. She had seen several big brands in the world before. "Did you thank them for me? I guess the money for the ten sets of jewelry is back."
Zhou Jiao suddenly burst into laughter.
She is not short of money now, so why would she let the other party suffer a loss? That would be so rude, okay!
Moreover, it would be strange if Mi didn’t have a hand in this investment.
Now, in the eyes of the Miao and Mi families, she is probably the God of Wealth.
This is the reality.
With Miao Tianming around, she didn't try to test other members of the Miao family, including this cheerful girl.
She always remembers not to test people's hearts casually, as it will make you disappointed and even despair.
Some things are better left unsaid than simply known. Some people are better left unsaid than simply known. Do your part diligently.
Whether it's true or false, just treat it calmly. Take care of the person who is in your heart, and what does others have to do with you?
"Our Jiaojiao never accepts charity. If she can accept it, you can use it with confidence." Zhou Xiaozheng said, then changed the subject, "Have you seen Wuyi?"
This is the key point, okay?
As soon as he finished speaking, Miao Lishan asked, "Yes, have we lost weight on Wuyi? Do we have enough money? Should we leave it for him?"
Zhou Jiao put down her things and sat down again, nodding repeatedly with a smile, "They are all very good, and they have enough money. This time they were invited by alumni from the island country."
Miao Lishan curled her lips immediately. She hated the Japs the most. When her child called, she would remind her grandson not to make the wrong friends.
Zhou Jiao looked at her amusedly and sighed inwardly. Her mother was still a little naive. Her family's Wuyi friendships were probably more for some mission.
"He's of decent status, so I told him to have less contact with me. He said he went to many places and received several people with great hospitality."
"He's happier than his two brothers, there's no doubt about that. Don't worry, Mom. I also went to the outside to take a look privately."
Miao Lishan was so happy after hearing this that she couldn't stop smiling. "That's as it should be. We are so likable. We are better at making friends than those two brats."
Yes, your little grandson says one thing in front of you and another behind your back. No one else can do that!
