After getting up in the morning and having breakfast, Zheng Tiansen went to work, and Linglong took Congcong out.
The first stop is Tong Da’s aunt’s home.
Seeing her and Congcong coming over, Aunt Tong looked more curious than before, probably because she knew they were going to break up and was reluctant to give up their emotional support.
As soon as she sat down, Linglong stated her purpose.
"You don't want any of them?" Aunt Tong asked in surprise.
"Well, no, I won't be able to use it for at least a year. I'm afraid it will break if it's left unused for too long."
"Have you told Tiansen about this?" Aunt Tong was afraid that this was Linglong's own idea.
"He was the one who first suggested it."
"Is that so? Then let me think about it."
In the past, Aunt Tong was very frugal. Later, Linglong lived in her house for a period of time and was influenced by her. Now her son is married and a grandson is going to be born soon.
She really wanted to be able to bring some cheap things home.
After much thought, what I want most is Linglong's sewing machine.
With a sewing machine, she can make a lot of clothes and toys for her grandson in the future.
"Linglong, Auntie has told you the truth. I want a sewing machine."
"Okay, Auntie, I'll give you half of the price of the sewing machine. Is that okay with you?"
"No, that's too cheap. You don't use your sewing machine much, it's still new."
No tickets, just money, Aunt Tong even thinks the original price is fine.
But Linglong would never ask her for so much money. After some persuasion, she finally agreed to give her a 30% discount.
Aunt Tong insisted on giving all the money to Linglong right now. Linglong had no choice but to accept the money.
Tong Dazhu gave all his allowances before getting married to my mother, so Aunt Tong has saved quite a bit of money.
It was only after Tong Dazhu got married that he divided the allowance into two parts, one for his mother and one for his wife.
Aunt Tong is currently in charge of the family's food and drink, so taking that amount is not much. At least Tong Dazhu's wife is satisfied in her heart.
Tong Dazhu is the only son in the family, and there is no question of whether to divide the family or not. She thought that her husband's allowance would basically be handed over to his mother-in-law after marriage.
Now I have half of it left for myself, I am so happy.
Linglong received so much money, put it away quickly, and got up to find Sister Niu.
Sister Niu worked in the cafeteria and didn't know that Zheng Tiansen was also going to be involved. After hearing what Linglong said, she felt reluctant to leave her.
However, after learning that Linglong was planning to trade in her home appliances, she also became interested.
The thing that Sister Niu is most interested in is the refrigerator in Linglong's house.
Since Sister Niu is willing to accept her, Linglong will naturally not look for anyone else.
After another round of bargaining, Linglong sold the refrigerator to Sister Niu at a 30% discount.
Sister Niu was still at work, so of course she didn't carry that much money with her. So she agreed with Linglong that she would give her the money when she went to their house to open the refrigerator.
Linglong doesn't mind these things.
After clearing out two places, Linglong took out the sewing machine and the refrigerator. She simply stopped looking for anyone else and went straight home with Congcong.
When Zheng Tiansen came back, he talked about his comrades and colleagues, and many of them were interested.
Knowing that Linglong had already sold the sewing machine and refrigerator, he joked that if those people knew about it, they would probably regret it because they acted too late.
Everything in Linglong's house seemed well-cared for and new. When Zheng Tiansen went to the office again, everyone knew that the sewing machine and refrigerator had already been taken, so they immediately sold the other things.
In just two days, all the major electrical appliances in Linglong's home had new owners.
They have almost packed their things and will leave the day after tomorrow.
After Zheng Tiansen called Beijing and told her that the three of them were going there together, Zeng Yu was overjoyed.
For many days and nights, she was looking forward to her son coming home.
Although her son is in military school now and cannot come home every day, at least he is close to her and she can see him often. She is happier than ever.
As for Congcong, his adopted grandson, Zeng Yu didn't feel any pressure at all.
Congcong can be said to be one of the most well-behaved children she has ever met. She is so happy to have such a well-behaved grandson around.
Even Zheng Yu, who usually showed no emotion, smiled when he knew his son was determined to come to the capital.
Linglong was packing here, and Zeng Yu was also packing over there.
The whole family of three has to come over, and we can’t just make do as we did before.
She cleaned up the room where her son Zheng Tiansen lived and made it available for the young couple Zheng Tiansen and Linglong to live in.
The room where Linglong used to live was redecorated as Congcong's room, and a lot of children's things were added to it.
On the day before departure, everyone practiced it for Linglong and the others at Tong's house.
Linglong and her family had things at home that they could sell, clean up, or give away. They really couldn't cook a table of dishes, so they had to have the meal at Tong's house.
Several of Zheng Tiansen’s close colleagues and comrades-in-arms, Linglong’s good friend Sister Niu and apprentice Xiaofang all came.
Even Xiao Jiang was not left behind.
When Xiao Jiang knew that his team leader was going to die, he burst into tears as if the sky had fallen.
Linglong used her cooking skills to make many delicious dishes, but no one was interested in them.
Considering that they still had to take the train the next day, everyone was reluctant to get Zheng Tiansen drunk too much.
But other people don’t have such scruples. If they get drunk by accident, they will cry and laugh.
"Tiansen, don't forget us even if you go to the capital."
"Remember to come back often. This will always be your home."
"Linglong, study hard and bring honor to our place in the future."
Even the youngest child, Congcong, received instruction and guidance from his uncles and aunts.
Linglong had adjusted her mood, but was affected by this group of people and started crying with red eyes.
When they returned home, she said to her husband, "Tiansen, we must come back often in the future."
"Okay, come back often."
In the past few days, everyone in the family quarters also knew that their entire family was going to be killed.
After all, it was quite a sensation when their family bought so many large electrical appliances. Now that they were being moved one by one, even a fool would ask what was going on.
Even if Zheng Tiansen and Linglong didn't want to announce it, everyone still knew that they were going to do it.
Some people sighed and some people lamented.
But probably it’s time to go, and I’m more reluctant to let go.
When Linglong and her friends packed their belongings and set off in the car the next day, they found many military dependents standing at the door.
Among them are the military wives who have recently become friends with Linglong.
Some people even had things in their hands and stuffed them into Linglong's mouths.
"Remember to come back often."
"Don't forget us."
"Linglong, do a good job."
Linglong was moved to tears again.
Even Zheng Tiansen felt a little sentimental when he saw this scene. He patted his wife on the shoulder and sighed, "Linglong, hurry up. If you don't hurry up, you might miss the bus."
"Um."
The car started moving, she rolled down the window and kept waving to the people going away.
"Goodbye, I will definitely come back."
