Chapter 529 The Gift



Huang Mukun then remembered this matter, "It seems there was such a thing, two courtyards were being renovated in succession."

This Master Wu is really strange; the two of them don't live together, and they even arrange things separately.

Yan Xinyu said, "Comrade Hua Xiangyun is already married. This time she might be coming with her children. It would be better if we stayed separately so that both sides could have some peace and quiet."

Huang Mukun was just saying it casually, but what he really cared about was, "Do you think we should go find her? After all, she's a member of the Xuan Department, so it's only right that she does her part at this time."

“I advise you to give up this idea,” Yan Xinyu warned. “Although she is registered in our Xuan Department, she has not received any cultivation resources for more than a year, nor has she participated in our missions. Maybe she is just keeping her name on file.”

This matter will be decided by Minister Kim and his team. We should just focus on doing our own jobs well and not interfere.

Huang Mukun, "...I just wanted to build a good relationship with her. You know what she has..."

Yan Xinyu coughed lightly, "We'll talk about everything when Master and the others return. The area over there has been cleared up quite a bit, let's go over there first."

Yan Xinyu felt extremely uncomfortable with so many people secretly staring at her.

"That's the women's restroom..."

Do we even have a choice?

Although they were all old and worn-out items, they could still be used after some cleaning and tidying up, which saved a lot of money and tickets.

Yan Xinyu smiled and accepted the offer, thinking that she shouldn't have opened it in front of others. She was planning to find a way to make up for the lower price in the past.

"Thank you very much, young lady. You will come to see me again in a few days."

"Well, school's started, so I came to see if there were any suitable books." Huang Mu smiled and handed over another handful of candy. "Did Da Nannan come with him today?"

You turned around and went into the large room where you were resting. You rummaged around and pulled out a large box.

For you, those were just things you picked up casually, while candy not only costs money but also requires candy coupons, making it more valuable than your things.

Huang Mu readily took out some change and handed it over. He then pulled a few straws from the side, rubbed them together, and tied the books together.

The two older men said they were renting a place far away, and with the things we bought, they couldn't even set up a proper home.

"It'll break if it's that slow?" Qin Hongmei chuckled as she weighed it for us. "If it's 1.8 jin, they'll charge it as 1 jin, 87 cents."

Hua Xiangyun and the others didn't go back for dinner. Since it was still early before class, they went to the northwest corner of the campus and went directly to the recycling station next to it through the corner gate.

He probably had very low expectations, and it was likely something valuable.

The two of them are quite generous with their grandson; they always give him something to eat whenever they see him, showing they know how to treat people well.

"Hua Xiangyun, he's really capable. You guys have all been to my scrap yard, but it's a complete mess. You all love going there." Yan Xinyu flattered him a few times before leisurely strolling around the scrap yard.

Huangmu, "That palm-sized wooden box might contain large pieces of jewelry or something similar."

But there's only such a small place outside the house, and you always take bad things outside the house and just leave them in the dormitory there.

Qin Hongmei actually found some books unrelated to medicine, and picked up a whole bunch of them. Huang Mu saw that there weren't enough, so he put them together with the books he had picked up and carried them inside.

"You're here again," said Granny Ma, the gatekeeper, with a big smile. "Those two elementary school students have rented a place far away. They're quite thrifty; they probably buy a lot of things from you."

"Those two older folks really know how to manage their money," Hua Xiangyun said, touching the candy outside her pocket. "Everyone complains that our recycling station is dirty and dilapidated, but they know that there are very few useful things there."

That time we needed books, you were only able to help a little. You had only gone through a literacy class and knew a few words, but when you actually looked at those book titles, you got dizzy.

"If you're feeling mischievous, open it and take a look." Huang Mu couldn't help but chuckle as he watched Yan Xinyu examine the wooden box from all angles.

Given their current wealth, even if they had valuable jewelry displayed outside, it wouldn't be worth their expectations.

Yan Xinyu said, "That won't do. I'd be asking for your bad things for nothing."

"Let's see what it is first. If it's too valuable, we'll find a way to return it." Qin Hong didn't think there was anything wrong with that. It's just a matter of exchanging favors; we're the ones who show goodwill first, and that's why they're doing this.

You're not one to manage a shop; buying, returning, and selling are easy. Besides, things are more relaxed now, and you'd rather mind your own business and turn a blind eye to things. You'd rather avoid making things too difficult for others.

"That girl of his, she's not that she's boring, but you picked up trash from outside the junkyard, where would you find anything bad?" Hua Xiangyun's words were false, you usually hate and collect anything you don't find interesting.

"They're going to your grandma's house," Qin Hongmei said calmly, taking the candy and putting it in her pocket. "If you knew they were going today, you could have waited outside."

...

That time, I got a piece of candy from someone for no reason. It seemed like I hadn't taken advantage of them. That was quite something.

I was planning to give this to my nephew who lives outside the family when I went back to my parents' home sometime, but now it's the perfect time to give it as a return gift.

"That was something my mother received by chance. What use is it to keep it with her? Let's give it to the two of them for their New Year's celebration."

Qin Hongmei also laughed. There are still few good servants in the world. Hua Xiangyun guards that place and sees people coming and going every day. How could she know the intentions of the family?

Seeing that it was still early, the two did not return the way they came, but instead quickly walked along the main alley, intending to take a longer route, just as the exercise began.

When they reached a secluded spot with people, Huang Mu put away the book, while Yan Xinyu held the wooden box and examined it with a mischievous look.

Hua Xiangyun pointed to a corner inside and outside and said, "If he wants to find a book, he should look for it outside here. You understand all these things, but you've organized them all in a mess."

Hua Xiangyun waved her hand with a smile, "Don't come too often. They know you only clear out your stock at the end of the month. If you come too frequently, they might find some bad stuff."

"Let's guess what's outside?"

Seeing that Yan Xinyu was still going to delay, he directly shoved the large wooden box into Yan Xinyu's hands, "It's bad that he's disgusted. Do you think you're going to accept their candy? He still has some 'little sister' stuff to say."

"It's okay, I'll come see you when you're busy," Yan Xinyu said, trying to be nice to this young lady, who was cute but also quite impolite.

Yan Xinyu said, "You just didn't expect Qin Hongmei to be so polite. We just disliked Da Nannan and wanted to tease you with some gifts. We really didn't feel guilty accepting those gifts."

Even if you're wrong, you'll still give me some leeway; that's called reciprocity.

So my old wife also disliked giving advice on the 17th, and was happy to keep things for us even though they weren't bad.
