Hua Kai said to them, "After Li Jing buys a house in the city, you'll have a place to stay when you go to the city for business or something. Isn't that great? You'll have relatives in the city now, how convenient!"
Li Jing's older brother then said, "Li Jing is a girl. If she gets married in the future, won't her house become someone else's?"
Hua Kai knew that the law at this time was indeed a problem; once married, the house would no longer belong to Li Jing, something she had never thought about before.
At this moment, Ye Yifan said, "Li Jing will naturally find someone who is a good match for her. When the man also has a house, and both of them have houses before marriage, then they won't be interested in each other anymore."
Hua Kai smiled and nodded at Ye Yifan, thinking that this guy was quite shrewd.
After listening, Jiang Lanfeng also said, "That makes sense. But if Li Jing is looking for a partner from the city, you'll have to help her keep an eye on things."
Hua Kai said, "Don't worry, Aunt Feng, we definitely will. The money has been delivered, and the words have been spoken. We'll head back now. I still need to see my grandfather one last time before heading to the city."
Jiang Lanfeng stood up and said, "If you're in such a hurry, then I'll definitely come to your aunt's house for a meal when I have a holiday."
Hua Kai agreed, "Definitely, then we're off."
Jiang Lanfeng and the others saw Hua Kai and Ye Yifan off. After watching them walk away, Li Jing's older brother approached Jiang Lanfeng and asked, "Mom, can you tell me how much it costs?"
Li Jing's second brother also came over: "I see quite a few, probably several hundred?"
Jiang Lanfeng couldn't keep it from her two sons, and she was also curious, so she took out the money. When she counted it, she was surprised to find a thousand.
Li Jing's older brother stared at the money in disbelief: "Mom, isn't this too much? Li Jing is just a young girl, and this bonus is so much? It's outrageous!"
Li Jing's second brother said, "It seems that Hua Kai is really helping Li Jing. It was worth it for us to help Hua Kai deal with Hua Qingsheng and the others before."
Jiang Lanfeng said, "It's true that Huakai is a very loyal and affectionate child, and we've benefited from it too."
When they looked at the money, they didn't really think about Li Jing's talent; instead, they felt it was Huakai's help to Li Jing.
Of course, Li Jing's two older brothers aren't that cunning, but if their sister-in-law were here, they'd probably overthink things.
Hua Kai and Ye Yifan went home, took some fruit and drinks, and went to their fourth uncle Hua Wanhai's house to visit Hua Chongzhi.
Upon reaching the door, they overheard Aunt Zhao Xiuzhi complaining to Uncle Hua Wanhe, "I'm the only one taking care of him every day. When will this ever end?"
Hua Wanhai said helplessly, "What can we do? We divided the family property together with the elderly. We got more when we divided the property, and it was agreed that taking care of the elderly was our responsibility. What do you suggest we do?"
Zhao Xiuzhi added, "I never imagined that Dad would be bedridden. I've really washed so many bedding and clothes."
Hua Kai didn't know what to say, but she also acknowledged that taking care of the elderly is not easy, especially for bedridden elderly.
So she went in and said to Zhao Xiuzhi, "Fourth Aunt, you've worked hard taking care of Grandpa. I brought some things from the provincial capital to give to you. I'll bring you some New Year's goods when I come back from the city in a few days."
Hearing this, Zhao Xiuzhi felt relieved and quickly went over to take the things from Hua Kai's hands, saying, "It is our duty to take care of the elderly, but you understand that it is not easy for us. I was just complaining a little."
Hua Kai smiled and said, "I understand, taking care of a patient isn't easy. How has Grandpa been lately?"
Zhao Xiuzhi was much happier this time: "That's good, that's good. Your mother always brings bone broth and stuff, and your grandfather is recovering well."
Hua Wanhai helped Ye Yifan carry the gifts he had brought and said to them, "Come inside quickly, let's talk inside."
Hua Kai and Ye Yifan followed them into the house.
Upon entering the room where Hua Chongzhi and Zheng Shuzhen were staying, Hua Chongzhi, who was lying on the kang (a heated brick bed), had already heard the sound of flowers blooming. He looked towards the door and asked, "Is that Kaikai?"
Hua Kai went over and said, "Grandpa, it's me. Ye Yifan brought me back, so I came to see how Grandpa is recovering."
Although Hua Chongzhi couldn't turn over to look over, his tone was still very warm: "Captain Ye is here too. I've troubled you a lot while I was in the hospital, and I'm really sorry to have to trouble you to come over."
Ye Yifan went over and said, "Grandpa Hua, you don't need to be so polite. I'm no stranger to you. Have you been feeling alright since you came back?"
Hua Zhongzhi said, "No, no, I'm fine. I'm just someone who's been taking care of and making a fuss."
In front of Hua Kai and Ye Yifan, Hua Wanhai said something nicer: "Look at what your father is saying. It's our duty as children to take care of you. You just need to focus on getting better."
Zheng Shuzhen watched the flowers bloom from the side. Every time she saw them bloom, she felt it was dazzling because the flowers changed so much. Every time she saw them, they seemed to be different and more beautiful.
Now she's not only beautiful, but her temperament is also exceptional, completely different from before.
Hua Kai looked at Zheng Shuzhen, who was looking at her, called her "Grandma," and then said nothing more.
When Zheng Shuzhen heard Hua Wanjiang bring bone broth to Hua Zhongzhi, he mentioned that Hua Kai had opened two more stores in the provincial capital and that the stores were doing very well. So Zheng Shuzhen was genuinely envious and jealous.
She had a thousand reasons to want to snatch it, but she didn't know how, so she could only hum in agreement.
Zhao Xiuzhi's attitude towards Hua Kai's family has changed recently. Since Hua Wanhe and Hua Wanhu have both stayed far away, Gu Lanyan has been coming over almost every day, whether it's delivering vegetables or helping to wash the elderly's clothes. She has indeed helped her a lot.
He had always thought he should be closer to his second and third brothers' families because they were born of the same mother. But after something happened, he realized that character is the most important thing, and that his eldest brother and sister-in-law's family were the good people.
However, she also knew that she had gone too far in the past, and it would be too difficult to switch sides now. But she had a breakthrough point: Hua Zhongzhi. The old man trusted Hua Wanjiang a lot now, and Hua Wanjiang was good to the old man. If her family followed the old man, they could still benefit from his influence in the future.
She didn't know how much money a person could have before, but now, seeing the flowers bloom and hearing what Hua Wanjiang and Hua Zhongzhi said, she knows. So now she's thinking about how to change her relationship with the Hua family.
She looked at Zhong and said, "It's almost noon, Fourth Brother, go kill a chicken, and call your eldest brother and sister-in-law over for lunch later."
Hua Wanhai wasn't stupid either; the couple had already reached a consensus in bed, after all, they had the same father.
He quickly agreed, saying, "Okay, I'll go kill the chicken."
Hua Kai quickly stopped them, saying, "Fourth Uncle and Fourth Aunt, don't be in such a hurry. I just came back from the provincial capital today and have to go to the city soon, so I won't have lunch here."
