The old man listened to the man's accusations, his eyes flickering. "I'm doing this for your own good," he said, glancing at the man's reaction from the corner of his eye. "I'll keep the rent money for you when the time comes, isn't that okay?"
The man snorted coldly and laughed at himself: "For my own good? I think you're doing this for yourself!"
After saying that, he pointed to the door and said to Wen Guoer and the others, "We don't want to rent this house anymore. You can leave now!"
Wen Guoer didn't want to rent a house with disputes and cause trouble for herself. Also, she recognized the person in front of her as the man who chased and beat the woman last time. She thought the man should have recognized her as well, and was still polite to them because of the shock of the last incident.
The two returned to the house they had first seen, communicated with the landlord, and decided on it.
As soon as she walked out of the door of the rental house, Wen Guoer saw a figure flash past the door and turn into another alley.
Wen Guoer felt that the figure was somewhat familiar, but she didn't know many people here. After a little thought, she figured out who the person was! It was the woman who was being chased by the man, and the woman she had felt strange about at the scrap yard.
"What a weird woman!" Wen Guoer muttered to herself.
"What are you talking about?" Tang Zhan saw her mouth opening and closing but no sound came out. He moved closer to her and asked with his head down.
"Nothing." Wen Guoer thought that there was really nothing to say to an irrelevant person.
When the two returned home, Carpenter Li had just delivered the repaired furniture.
The furniture has been carefully renovated, just like new, retaining the original carvings and craftsmanship to the greatest extent possible, and is polished very smoothly to restore the natural wood color.
Because it was newly polished, the wood scent is very strong, but it is all very pleasant sandalwood scent.
Wen Guoer knew that a Huanghuali stool like this would be sold at auction for over a million in the future. She didn't expect that Tang Zhan could just pick it up and put together a table and four chairs. In the future, that would be worth several million.
There are also the rosewood cabinets and desks. After this renovation, they have a sense of nobility, simple and literary. The two touches of elegant red make the whole room lively.
Tang Zhan rearranged the furniture according to his young wife's instructions. In addition to the bed, he added a wardrobe, a dressing table, a sofa and a desk to the bedroom.
The main room has the original dining table, stools, and two newly made chairs.
In another room, there is a table and four chairs, a rosewood storage cabinet, a sewing machine, and a large activity space, which looks like a leisure room.
The room is decorated with tablecloths, curtains, cushions that Wen Guoer collected from the space, and flowers in ceramic jars, giving it a unique pastoral flavor.
There are also kitchen cabinets in the kitchen, with ingredients in their own places and tableware neatly arranged.
In the small courtyard, the flowers, plants and trees are growing, and Xiaobai is running around in the yard, all evolving towards the scene in her painting.
Wen Guoer suddenly felt very satisfied. It was a kind of satisfaction that she had never felt in her previous life due to her wealth.
The next day, Wen Guoer received a letter from Tang's mother.
The letter said that their clothing business was going well, they had delivered two more goods, the other party was very satisfied, and the family had earned another 10 Datuanjie. The family decided to start building a brick house after the spring planting, so that they would have a new house to live in when they went back next time.
She said that everyone in the family liked the package she sent them, but Zhao Lai Di snatched Hu Zi's portion, making Hu Zi so angry that he cried.
He also brought good news: Zhang Xiaocui was pregnant as she had wished. He told her not to worry about her family and to live a good life with Tang Zhan in the team.
Finally, he added, "Mr. Meng is doing well, don't worry about him."
Seeing that the families in Xiachuan Village were living better and better, Wen Guoer was very happy for them.
At this time, Tang Zhan was urgently called back to the team. Captain Fang was giving him a secret and difficult task with a serious expression:
"News has arrived: a remnant of Country R is hiding in the mountains of your province, secretly conducting bacterial and viral experiments. Their ulterior motives are sinister and treacherous! They pose a serious threat to the security of our nation and our people. The situation is extremely serious!"
The higher-ups have decided to temporarily form a special operations team to conduct a covert operation and wipe out the lair of these bastards in one fell swoop!"
Captain Fang pounded his fist on the table, his expression solemn and intimidating without even getting angry.
"You are now appointed captain of the special operations team. Lead the team to carry out this mission. Ensure the successful completion of the mission at all costs!"
"Yes! I promise to complete the task!"
Tang Zhan spoke in a deep voice and with a resolute expression on his face, he saluted Captain Fang with his head held high, but his eyes seemed to penetrate Captain Fang and give his assurance to the country and the people.
Captain Fang stepped over the desk and walked in front of him, patted his shoulder, and said cautiously:
"This mission is arduous and dangerous. We've selected the best warriors from each theater of operations and assembled them into teams. Please be cautious and take precautions! I await your triumphant return and celebrate your success!"
"Don't worry, Captain. We will definitely live up to everyone's expectations!" Tang Zhan's answer was sonorous and moving.
