"Okay!" Lin Hongtao agreed, then stood up and quickly followed.
The three of them walked out the door, and Xu Jianguo said to Lin Hongtao, "Hongxia told us a few days ago that she wanted to live in the dormitory when she started college. She was so stubborn that your sister-in-law and I tried to persuade her for several days, but it was useless. I was worried that she would feel that living at home would cause trouble for us. As her brother, you should persuade her again. The conditions in the dormitory are definitely not as good as at home, so there is no need to worry about causing trouble. Your sister-in-law and I both like the lively atmosphere at home, so she should go home if she can!"
When Lin Hongtao heard what Xu Jianguo said, a warm feeling suddenly flowed through his heart. How could he be so lucky to have such a good brother-in-law and sister-in-law in this life.
After thinking for a while, Lin Hongtao nodded and said, "Brother, Hongxia living with you is really causing trouble for you and sister-in-law. Why don't you let her live on campus?"
"Don't talk nonsense. Your sister-in-law and I both like this girl. Even though you are my brother-in-law, I still treat you as my younger brother. So Hongxia is naturally my younger sister too. Let Daya persuade her when we get back. She's more effective than you, her brother!"
"Okay, I got it bro!"
"Hurry back, we're leaving and we'll find a car to pick you up later!"
"Okay, brother and sister-in-law, goodbye!"
After Xu Jianguo and Wen Sitian left, Lin Hongtao turned around and went back into the house, called Daya over, and told her what had just happened outside the door.
After listening to this, Daya smiled and nodded, saying, "Don't worry, leave it to me!"
When Lin Hongtao heard this, he smiled and nodded.
Sure enough, when Daya and Lin Hongxia, the sister-in-law, came out of the bedroom upstairs, Lin Hongtao saw his wife looking at him with pride.
Seeing this, Lin Hongtao decisively gave her a thumbs up.
At nine o'clock in the morning, Zhao Changshan drove back to Xu Jianguo's home, picked up the couple and several children, and drove to Zhuanta Hutong. Of course, the little black cat belonging to Daya was not left behind.
After Lin Hongtao and Daya put down their luggage, the group took a car to the department store and bought a lot of things for Lin Hongxia that she would need at school.
Erya and Funniu also bought a lot of things for themselves and the three little ones. Several times, Daya and Lin Hongtao wanted to rush to pay, but the two girls refused to let them.
Daya thought about it and realized that her two younger sisters probably had as much money in their own savings, so she stopped worrying about it.
After all, ever since she and Erya started living with Xu Jianguo, her brother has given them pocket money every month, and it's quite a lot, one dollar per person per day, which is more than many factory workers get.
So over the past ten years, each of the three girls has saved a lot of money.
At noon, the couple took their sister and nephews and nieces to Bianyifang in Xianyukou, Qianmen. After having a delicious roast duck meal, they returned to their home in Zhuanta Hutong.
When they passed by the vegetable market on the way back, they bought a lot of vegetables.
After sending the children back to Zhuanta Hutong, Zhao Changshan drove back to the research institute.
At 5:30 in the evening, Xu Jianguo and Wen Sitian arrived at the couple's new house on time. After hearing the knock on the door, Lele ran to open the door. Seeing her parents coming back, her pretty face was full of smiles.
After the family had dinner together at Daya and Lin Hongtao's home, Xu Jianguo and Wen Sitian took the children back to their own home.
This time, the children did not cry as much as they did before, as if they had realized that having a brother-in-law (uncle) was not a bad feeling.
…
In this way, Xu Jianguo's family's life returned to normal again.
There are still three days left until September 1st. At this time, Xu Jianguo's little ones are busy wrapping book covers for the textbooks for the new semester.
Lin Hongxia has already completed the registration at Jingzhou Normal University and just needs to wait for school to start the day after tomorrow to go to school.
Thanks to Xu Jianguo's arrangement, the school readily agreed to her application for day schooling. In order to make it convenient for his sister to go to school, Lin Hongtao also bought her a Phoenix brand women's bicycle.
Originally, Xu Jianguo thought that August would pass by uneventfully, but on the 30th, an unexpected person appeared outside the institute.
When Xu Jianguo received the call, he was stunned for a moment, then seemed to have thought of something, and quickly asked Liu Yang to bring the person to the office.
And this person is none other than the abbot of Yuye Temple, Yuye Zhenren.
After Liu Yang brought the person over, he poured Yuye a cup of tea and left.
Xu Jianguo frowned and looked at the old Taoist priest in front of him, and asked, "Is something wrong with the old Taoist priest?!"
In fact, it’s not that Xu Jianguo has any ability to predict the future, but today is exactly one month since the old Taoist Xuanjue disappeared.
Some people may ask why he remembers it so clearly, because he did not attend Daya's wedding family dinner.
When Xu Jianguo informed him before, the old man clearly agreed, but on the day, he did not show up.
In addition, during the family dinner that day, Xu Jianguo was busy feeling sad and did not pay attention to why the old Taoist priest did not come.
The next day, he went to the academy run by the Taoist Association in Jingzhou. Only then did he learn that the old Taoist had not come to the academy for three days. As for where he had gone, no one knew.
Xu Jianguo also had some guesses about this. After all, the old Taoist Xuanjue was now a member of 749. If there was only one unavoidable reason for him not to attend Daya's wedding, Xu Jianguo could not think of any other possibility except the mission.
When Daya and Lin Hongtao were traveling, Xu Jianguo had looked for the old Taoist priest more than once, but the old man seemed to have disappeared from the face of the earth, and no one knew where he had gone.
What Xu Jianguo found most incredible was that he once used the world map in his mind to check the coordinates of the old Taoist priest, but it showed that he was offline.
When Xu Jianguo saw this result, he immediately felt bad and asked the system. The answer given by the system made him feel even more disappointed.
According to the system, there are three possibilities for the coordinates to be offline. The first is because of interference; the second is that the person at the coordinates is not in this world; the third is that the person at the coordinates is dead.
At this moment, the old Taoist's friend in Jingzhou, or fellow Taoist, suddenly found him, which made Xu Jianguo's heart full of dark clouds.
