The next day, Gu Feng went to find Gu Lei first and told him that if he didn't come back at noon, he would pick up his mother in the afternoon. Gu Lei agreed, but Gu Feng was not very reassured, after all, Gu Lei was still young.
After leaving Gu Lei's room, Gu Feng knocked on Gu Lang's door. "Gu Feng, aren't you guys going to handle the formalities today? Why haven't you left yet?"
"Cousin, my mother is coming today. If I can't come back at noon, can you accompany Gu Lei to pick her up? I'm worried."
"Sure, no problem. Why didn't you tell me last night? I wasted your time."
"I didn't think about it last night. Cousin, we have to go."
Gu Feng came back and Ningning had packed up. They took the children with them, and Xiaoxiao couldn't take care of two children alone.
The landlord was a straightforward person. After taking the money and signing the contract, he went to handle the transfer. He originally thought it would be quick, but he ended up queuing for the entire morning and it wasn't their turn at all.
They didn't go home either. It would be too troublesome to go there again, and they were also afraid that the landlord would not want to go there in the afternoon. It would be troublesome if they kept delaying, so they ate something nearby and waited to go to work in the afternoon.
They thought it would be enough to go there ten minutes before work started, but they didn't expect that someone had arrived earlier than them. When they got there, there were already five or six people inside.
It was already past five in the afternoon when Lu Wanwan and the others finished. Fortunately, Gu Lei and the others went to pick them up, otherwise they would have been late.
Looking at the completed little red book, Lu Wanwan was very happy. This was her first asset here.
When they got home, Gu Lei and his family had already taken his mother home. "Mom, you're here. We didn't arrange a time. We had an appointment with someone to handle the transfer today, so we couldn't come to pick you up."
"It's okay. It doesn't matter who takes over. Gu Lei and the others said that you bought a store and the ownership is being transferred today. It doesn't matter who takes over. Business is more important."
"We found a shop that we liked, over 50 square meters, and bought it for 12,000 yuan. We plan to open a shop selling clothes."
"That's great. The clothes I made before will definitely be more expensive here than over there, so I can still make money."
"By the way, we heard you were coming today, so we asked you to come over for dinner. Please prepare to take us over."
"I'm not tired. Let's go quickly. Don't let your parents wait. This is bacon for them."
"Then I'll go tell my cousins."
"Cousin, what are you doing? My mom asked us to come over for dinner."
"We're deciding what to eat tonight. Since we're going there for dinner, let's go early so we can help out."
They took the bus to Lu Wanwan's parents' house. When they got there, the aunt was cooking. The fish and ribs were already stewed by Lu's mother, and the chicken was cooked right after they bought it. The aunt was cutting vegetables and preparing to cook.
Hearing a knock on the door, Mother Lu came out from the kitchen and said, "You must have come all the way here. Come sit down and rest for a while."
"Auntie Zhang, please prepare the dishes."
"Madam, you guys eat some fruit first. I'll go cook some food. The meal will be ready soon."
"Don't worry, take your time."
Mother Lu greeted Mother Gu, and Gu Lei chose to go in to help Aunt Zhang cook.
"Aunt Zhang, let me help you."
"Thank you, Xiaolei."
The two of them were busy in the kitchen, while others sat outside and chatted. Lu Wanwan was receiving guests, so she didn't go into the kitchen. It was easier just to cook a few dishes.
"Mom Gu, we have to go to Mu Fan's place soon. Xia Wen is about to give birth, and we can't take care of Wan Wan here. I have to trouble you to take care of her."
"These are all trivial matters. We've been preparing to come and take care of the children since Wanwan planned to take the exam. You're all busy at work, and Mu Fan needs help too. Just go there with peace of mind. We're here for you."
"I don't know how long it's been. If you need me, I might have to stay for a while. Wanwan's father will be back in four or five days. If you need anything while I'm away, you can talk to Wanwan's father."
"Don't worry about us. There are so many of us that we can handle it."
"They all went to school, and Gu Feng also has to take care of the store renovations. You've been working hard on your own, and I can lend a hand here."
"What's so tiring about this? It's just taking care of the kids. Have Xiaoxiao and the others found a suitable nanny?"
"Not at the moment. Wanwan is starting school and we'll be away for a few days, so I'll have Auntie go over and help out for a few days. I'll see if there's a suitable one in the next few days. I've already made arrangements with Aunt Zhang."
"This is the only way. If Wanwan's father comes back on his own, he can stay at Wanwan's place first, so we can look after each other."
"We'll talk about it later. Mu Fan said before that they don't need me there, so maybe we can come back together. If we can't find them, we can ask Aunt Zhang to go over and help for a few days."
After dinner, Gu Feng took them away. Mother Gu must be tired after just coming here today. There will be many opportunities in the future. It is courtesy to welcome her and she must not be tired.
When we got home, they all went back to their rooms. We have to pack up tomorrow because school starts the day after tomorrow. I don’t know what the school is like.
"Mom, you sleep in this room. The middle is the living room where we eat. We'll be in the room opposite. Gu Lei is on the left and my cousin is on the right. The row in front is currently empty."
"I see. This house costs a lot of money, right?"
"This is a house of Wenwen's family. It was left to Wanwan for us to live in."
"Ah, Wanwan's house where we live."
"Mom, it doesn't matter whose it is. We're a family anyway. We can buy more in the future. You can rest first. I'll take you to see our store and the surrounding environment tomorrow so you can get familiar with it."
"Okay, you guys should take a rest too. You must be tired from running around these past few days."
"Mom, Wanwan is in school and I have to watch over the decoration. I'll come back to cook at noon. Can I be alone the rest of the time?"
