Li Wenbo said with a smile, "Yes, yes, our family will be reunited! When is your grandfather coming back?"
His eyes shone with anticipation. He had been abandoned in China as a child; heaven knows what he had been through.
Now that his family has finally settled down, the country has begun its reform and opening up, and exchanges with foreign countries have increased, making it easier to travel abroad. He looks forward to seeing his family again.
His memories of his relatives only extend to when he was a child.
Li Jiuqing said, "Uncle, I heard from Grandpa that he is preparing to return to China, but he is still worried about the situation in China and wants to see it more clearly."
Li Wenbo nodded and said, "It's normal for him to have concerns, but our country has now started reform and opening up, and everything is different from before!"
I think your grandfather should go back to China to invest and bring back a lot of money to support the country's development!
Why spend money abroad? If you're going to spend it, spend it in your own country, so that your people can become prosperous and strong!
Li Jiuqing's expression stiffened slightly. After a brief pause, she said, "Uncle, you're right, you're quite patriotic! I heard you were once sent to the countryside, and it seems you suffered a lot..."
Li Wenbo said, "The past is the past. Without a country, where is our home? Only when the country is prosperous and strong can we ordinary people stand tall. The good life we have now is something we never dared to dream of before!"
Cheng Xiaohui also said with a smile, "That's right, who would have dared to dream of such a good life before?"
Now our family runs its own business. Your cousin alone owns several factories, which has solved the employment problem for many housewives in the neighborhood.
"When housewives go out to work, they supplement the family income. With an extra breadwinner, the family can live a more comfortable life!"
Li Jiuqing said, "Auntie is right! I also hope to see the people of our country have a good life."
Seeing that it was getting late, Cheng Xiaohui said, "Jiuqing, I'll take you to your room. I'll boil some water for you, and you can go to bed early after you've washed up."
Li Jiuqing said, "Okay. Thank you, Auntie."
She smiled and went with Cheng Xiaohui to the room Cheng Xiaohui had arranged for her.
Li Xiyue rested her elbows on the table, her hand supporting her chin, and asked, "Li Jiuqing? Have I ever heard Grandpa mention her before? Did he write about her in any of the letters he sent home?"
Li Wenbo said, "No. I only received two letters from your grandfather, and I didn't dare to reply. Every letter has to go through strict review."
Sigh, because of these problems in our family, your mother and I even went to the countryside, and…
The past cannot be mentioned again; it only brings tears to my eyes. How hard he and Cheng Xiaohui suffered in the countryside back then.
If life hadn't been so hard, why would he have sent his daughter to the city to be looked after by a nanny?
This gave the nanny the opportunity to switch things out!
He doesn't feel sorry for his own suffering; what he feels sorry for is that his daughter didn't grow up by their side and suffered too much in the countryside!
In that instant, he understood why Li Xiyue had asked that question. He said, "Well... who randomly claims relatives? It won't do her any good. Your grandfather is much richer than our family abroad!"
Li Xiyue gave a noncommittal hum and said to Mi Bao in the space, "You turn into a little mosquito, suck some of her blood, and do a DNA paternity comparison in the space."
Mi Bao said, "You suspect that he's not your cousin, but an imposter?"
Li Xiyue said, "Don't you find it strange? If he were really that patriotic, he should have come back long ago! What's he doing back now? Coming to our house to claim kinship again!"
Although some things seemed to make sense, she always felt that something was amiss!
So let's find out the truth first.
Mibao immediately changed into the skin of a mosquito and secretly flew to find Li Jiuqing.
Cheng Xiaohui placed the large aluminum basin, two thermos flasks of hot water, and a large bucket of cold water into Li Jiuqing's room.
She knew that people who grew up abroad liked to take showers every day, but conditions in China were limited; there were no showers at home, and the only way to take a shower was to sit in a bath.
Li Jiuqing's brow furrowed almost imperceptibly, but she still politely thanked Cheng Xiaohui.
Cheng Xiaohui left the room and waited for Li Jiuqing to finish washing before going back in to tidy up.
Li Xiyue returned to her room to rest. DNA matching takes time. She yawned and went back to her space to wash up.
We'll find out tomorrow morning whether Li Jiuqing is her cousin or not.
Just as she was about to fall asleep, the phone suddenly rang in her space. Her space phone was a space phone, so who could be calling into her space?
She's usually the one who makes the call.
Curious, she picked up the phone receiver, and Du Jingshan's roar came through the line.
"Who roasted the chicken?! Come out here!!"
Li Xiyue held the phone receiver further away, afraid of damaging her ears.
She said, "What are you doing? What are you doing?! Why are you shouting? Do you think your voice is too loud, like a braying donkey!"
Du Jingshan roared, "I got diarrhea after eating roast chicken last time, and I got diarrhea again this time!"
It must be the roast chicken that's the problem. Who roasted the chicken?! What did they put on it?!
He got angrier and angrier as he talked. Last time he had diarrhea after eating roast chicken, he thought to himself that maybe it was because his stomach was upset that day.
But he had diarrhea again after eating roast chicken today. Now he has no doubt that it's a problem with his stomach; it's purely the roast chicken that's the problem!
Li Xiyue looked at Mi Bao, but Mi Bao's little head had already turned to the side, not even glancing at her!
Li Xiyue secretly rolled her eyes. It must have been Mi Bao who did it!
However, you absolutely cannot admit to this, no matter what, because the consequences will be severe!
She said, "Do you have diarrhea? Really?"
Du Jingshan said, "Stop playing dumb, is it you who put this stuff on me!"
Li Xiyue said, "If we're going to put anything on, it'll be seasoning, what else could it be?!"
Oh my gosh, I remember now!
The chickens in my online space have been showing signs of bird flu these past few days. Could it be that this chicken has contracted bird flu?
You should get a blood test to see if you have avian flu! If you do, you need to get treatment right away!
Avian flu can be a serious or minor illness; it could even be fatal!
Du Jingshan was instantly fooled by Li Xiyue. He asked in surprise, "Did the chickens in your space get bird flu?"
Li Xiyue said, "That's right! We originally bought a few chickens from the cooperative, intending to put them in the space to expand the population, but we didn't expect those chickens to bring in bird flu."
I had Mibao kill and move all the live chickens in the space. Some of the chickens might not have shown symptoms yet, but they might have been infected with the avian influenza virus.
"That's possible, don't you think?! You should get a blood test soon, and if you're infected, start taking medication immediately!"
Du Jingshan said somewhat guiltily, "Okay, I think I'll get a blood test!"
He hung up the phone after he finished speaking.
