Lingzi had always kept something in her heart: after Er Gou was buried, she and her friends went to visit him.
They discovered that Er Gou's body had been dug out by wild dogs, and his stomach had been eaten away. It was his friends who cried as they buried him back together.
Later, people said that if they didn't have household registration pages, their families would bury them like Er Gou did, and then they would be eaten by wild dogs until they had no stomach left.
Reiko dared not tell anyone about this, but kept it deep in her heart.
"Qiqi wants some too!" Seeing her sister so happy, Zhao Qi excitedly came over to join in the fun.
Liu Zi nodded helplessly.
Later that noon, Liu Zi's mood for treating everyone to lunch outside was somewhat dampened by this topic.
Liu Zi knew that Lingzi must have a reason for making such a request. After she subtly inquired about the matter, she immediately did a few things in her grief.
First, Lin Yizhou purchased three burial plots in a cemetery in the eastern suburbs of Beijing. These plots were purchased outright, so there would be no possibility of them being removed if the fees were not renewed after twenty years.
Although the price was a bit high, Liu Zi felt it was worth the money.
Then Liu Zi arranged for everyone to have a physical examination at the Beijing Municipal Hospital. Nowadays, people are not aware of this and usually only seek medical treatment when they have health problems.
Originally, Liu's parents and Aunt Zhang were unwilling to go, but Liu Zi invited Lingzi, a great sage, to accompany the child, so they had nothing more to say, and the matter was settled.
The date is set for this Saturday.
After hearing the news from somewhere, Song Yan insisted on going along and even brought her parents along.
Liu Zi was somewhat taken aback. Was this a group physical examination?
Mr. and Mrs. Song were initially reluctant, but they couldn't resist the powerful pleading of their two grandsons, Dashan and Xiaoshan, so they had no choice but to go with their daughter.
All the way there, I kept saying to myself, "Why did I come to the hospital if I'm not sick? I could have bought so many other things with that money."
The older generation believes it's best to avoid going to the hospital unless absolutely necessary.
Later, when they arrived at the hospital, they found that Liu's parents had also been brought there, and things calmed down a bit.
The six people undergoing physical examinations had an average age of 46, with the youngest being Liu Lin, who alone lowered the average age of the entire group.
Therefore, Liu Zi and Song Yan directly appointed her as the team leader of the physical examination team. Team leader Liu Lin was very responsible and strictly urged the elderly to cooperate actively. Her cute appearance made the doctors who saw her laugh again and again.
At noon, Liu Zi and Song Yan treated several elderly people to roast duck as a reward for their cooperation in the morning.
Eight people together devoured three roast ducks, and in the end, little Lingzi was clutching her stomach, shouting that she had eaten a lot.
Liu Zi was worried that everyone would overeat, so she quickly asked the shopkeeper to boil some hawthorn water to help everyone digest.
After a moment of unanimous agreement, everyone decided to take a stroll in the square in the afternoon since they had nothing else to do.
Everyone else was fine, but Aunt Zhang was particularly excited. When her husband was still alive, he regretted that he had never been to the square in Beijing. Unexpectedly, in her old age, she was fortunate enough to come to Beijing thanks to Lingzi, and now she was going to the square.
She was determined to write down everything she saw so that she could tell her husband about it at his grave when she got back.
The square today is far less strictly managed than it would be in later years, and people can enter and exit very freely. There are also some small vendors doing business and distributing flyers on the edges of the square.
Mr. Liu led the way, and the group chatted about the development of Beijing in recent years.
Liu Zi was the last to arrive. She had visited the square countless times in her previous life, but seeing it now still felt very new to her.
There weren't many tall buildings around, and everything looked so simple and unpretentious.
Suddenly, someone approached her, holding up a flyer and saying, "Sister, are you buying a house? We have newly developed residential and commercial properties here. Would you like to take a look?"
Liu Zi stopped in her tracks when she was blocked like this, and she took the flyer and read it carefully.
Wang Jianwen's eyes lit up. It seemed like there was a chance. He had been standing there all day, and he was finally interested in someone. He had to seize the opportunity!
So this is the famous World Trade Center Pedestrian Street of later generations!
It's only been built for a short time, and it doesn't seem to be selling well.
Seeing that Liu Zi was being stopped, Song Yan walked over, glanced at the flyer, and complained.
"It's almost on the Third Ring Road, and it's still selling for such a high price. It's not far from our village either. We might as well just build it ourselves in our village!"
Liu Zi smiled but didn't say anything, but Wang Jianwen became anxious.
"Sister, our area has excellent amenities. The pedestrian street plan is complete, and there are several universities nearby, so the future foot traffic is sure to be high. Whether you're doing business or living here yourself, it's a great choice!"
Liu Zi glanced at Wang Jianwen and asked a seemingly unrelated question: "Are you from this real estate center?"
Wang Jianwen hesitated for a moment, then said, "Sister, I won't lie to you, I'm a real estate agent. Their houses have been contracted out to our company as a whole, so the prices we offer are the lowest and most suitable."
"Stop trying to fool me. Don't you middlemen make any money? Do you starve?" Song Yan's mouth was sharp.
Wang Jianwen stammered, unable to speak.
Liu Zi patted Song Yan's hand, telling her to wait a moment.
"Could you please give me your contact information? I don't have time today, I'll contact you another day."
Liu Zi is currently planning her own studio. As her workload increases, she will need someone to help her with miscellaneous tasks.
In addition, Lingzi will be starting school in two years, and she wants Lingzi to attend elementary school in Beijing.
These things all need to be planned in advance; it would be great if they could be done in one go.
"You're really buying it!" Song Yan tugged at Liu Zi, "Even if you're going to buy a house, you shouldn't buy one there!"
"I'll just take a look first."
Wang Jianwen smiled and gave Liu Zi his contact information, telling her that he was available 24 hours a day and would be waiting for her at any time.
Liu Zi waved goodbye to him and went to catch up with the group who were almost at the flagpole.
Song Yan pouted, looking unhappy.
"What's wrong?"
"You're already planning to move out, so why are you bothering me?" Song Yan said irritably. Actually, she knew that Liu Zi would be going back to the city sooner or later, but she was still a little reluctant to let her go.
"If I move out, you won't move with me!" Liu Zi replied.
"Are you kidding me? Where could I move to?" Song Yan was still confused.
Liu Zi stopped and turned to look at Song Yan seriously.
"What?" Song Yan was a little flustered when she saw that she was serious.
"Your hotel business is doing well, and your braised meat shop is doing even better. Haven't you ever thought about moving to a bigger market?"
Song Yan froze on the spot. She had always thought that she could just take care of her Yan Yan Hotel and run her business well. But now that someone had given her another idea, her mind went blank for a moment.
"You want me to move to... Beijing?" Song Yan asked stammeringly.
"I'm just suggesting you consider this idea." Liu Zi heard that Song Yan's family had a dispute with their neighbors, and the two families even had a fight over a guest.
