Lu Yuan returned to the room, locked the door, and tossed the cloth bag to his fake wife.
Wen Moxue was already dressed and had her hair combed.
Her pretty face was slightly flushed, probably because she was embarrassed by the awkward position she was in when she woke up.
He took the cloth bag and asked, "How much?"
"More than 390."
As he spoke, he took out another 40 yuan from inside.
"This is for my uncles and the others."
"oh."
"The rest is yours."
"ah?"
Seeing that surprised little expression, Lu Yuan couldn't help but chuckle.
"You hunted this wild boar, so the money from selling it is naturally yours."
Wen Moxue's eyes crinkled with a smile; she knew his heart was pure. However, she couldn't be greedy.
"We got the wild boar together, so we'll split the money."
"Sure," Lu Yuan said with a smile, not refusing.
After washing up, I ate a big bowl of steaming hot pork wontons that my wife had taken directly from her online space. I was incredibly satisfied.
"I'm going to deliver money to my uncles."
When he arrived at Lu Guoan's house, he learned that the father and his two sons had already gone to his new house.
He then moved to the new house.
It was discovered that there were more than just these three people; Xu Dong and the people who had previously helped repair the house were also busy here.
"Uncle, what's going on here?"
Seeing him come over, Lu Guoan said with a smile, "Your yard doesn't have a wall, it's very dangerous. I'll have them come over and build a wall for you."
Wow, I didn't expect my uncle to be so thoughtful. Before I even asked, he had already found someone to do the job.
This person cares for their child even more than their own father.
"That's great, Uncle, thanks. I'll make up the difference in wages later."
Lu Guoan quickly waved his hand, "No need, I've already told them that building this wall is a favor and they won't be paid. They're all here voluntarily."
Looking at the busy crowd, Lu Yuan felt very grateful.
He mentioned yesterday that he wanted to build a sturdy stone wall.
These people even helped him collect stones everywhere today, so he didn't have to prepare the materials himself.
I know these people are doing this because of Lu Guoan, but since I'm the one who actually benefits, I should still thank them.
"Alright, I won't pay you today. We're moving tomorrow, and I'll have my aunt come over to help with the cooking. I'll treat everyone to a meal."
"Sure, consider it a housewarming gift." Lu Guoqing readily agreed.
Lu Yuan handed him the 40 yuan, saying, "Uncle, here's another 10 yuan from Jiefang and Yuanchao."
"You child, why do you always give money?"
"Of course."
Seeing the dark circles under his uncle's eyes, he said, "Uncle, you don't need to look after things here. Go back and rest."
I felt really bad for running around for him all night and then coming over to help during the day.
Lu Guoan nodded, "I just came to make some arrangements, and I'll go back and catch up on some sleep later."
Lu Yuan then found Xu Dong and told him to go back and catch up on his sleep as well.
But the kid absolutely refused, saying, "No need, I'm perfectly fine."
Instead, they advised him, "Brother Yuan, you're injured, go back and rest."
“They’re building a wall, I’ll go and clean up Grandpa Liu’s house for you.”
Since no one had spoken up beforehand, they hadn't dared to touch the house.
Last night, when he told me that he and his wife had come late at night to clean the house, I took it to heart.
Lu Yuan couldn't dissuade him, so he went along with it.
Moreover, Grandpa Liu's house does indeed need help.
Brothers, of course, are for taking advantage of. Cough, no, I mean for helping each other out.
He went home, and Wen Moxue was carrying a basket on her back, preparing to go to the commune. He quickly said, "I'll go with you."
"Weren't you going to hire someone to clean the new house?"
“My uncle and Dongzi had already found someone. They said I was injured and didn’t need to stay there.”
Wen Moxue understood, thinking that having him go to the commune together could provide cover. So she agreed.
Lu Yuan borrowed the brigade's oxcart; he didn't even need to come up with an excuse, as Lu Guoan had already thought of one for him.
Let him go see Grandpa Liu on behalf of the village and ask the doctor when he can be discharged from the hospital.
When the two went to drive the oxcart, Lu Yuan asked his fake wife for a few steamed buns and gave them to the old man in the cowshed.
Seeing the old man's pitiful state, Wen Moxue wanted to leave him more things.
Lu Yuan stopped him, saying, "It's too hot to store too many things in this weather."
Thinking about it, Wen Moxue finally gave up the idea of giving more.
The old man looked at the two of them, his eyes filled with gratitude.
Upon arriving at the commune, Lu Yuan went to the management office first.
"I'm moving tomorrow. I promised my uncle I'd treat the people who helped build the house to a meal. I'm going to find Brother Qianjin to buy some pork."
Wen Moxue quickly grabbed him and winked at him.
"I already have the space, why would I buy more?"
Lu Yuan said, "If we don't buy some, it will be difficult to explain if others ask."
Lu Qianjin is a villager, and he will definitely be invited to the housewarming party tomorrow.
If you don't buy pork from him, he'll easily expose you with a casual question.
"Let's just say we bought it in the city." Clearly, they had already come up with an excuse.
Lu Yuan thought about it and felt that the excuse was pretty good.
Nobody in the city knows anyone here, so whether they bought anything or how much they bought, no matter what you say, nobody knows.
"Should we make a trip to the city? At least to make a show of it."
Let's go.
The two then drove the oxcart towards the county town, not returning until the afternoon.
When they returned to the commune, the oxcart was full of things.
The two large iron pots were the most eye-catching. Everything else was covered and couldn't be seen clearly.
But there's a lot of stuff; it's almost piled up.
The two went to the business office, found Lu Qianjin and Li Dezhu, and told them about the move and the dinner they would treat them to the next day.
He also instructed the two to bring their families.
Then the two of them took some more things and went to the brick factory to invite Wang Fengnian.
They went to the health center last.
I said I came to see Grandpa Liu, but I still have to show my face here.
Grandpa Liu's condition has improved. We happened to run into Gao Weishan making his rounds in the ward.
"The patient's condition has stabilized, and the injury has almost healed. He can be discharged tomorrow."
"That's great! We're moving to our new house tomorrow and we're planning to have a meal with some people. You'll be there just in time, Uncle Liu."
Grandpa Liu grinned, revealing his missing front tooth, and said, "I'm a lucky man when it comes to food."
Lu Yuan looked at the people who had been running back and forth to the commune during this time, and thinking about how hard they had worked taking care of Grandpa Liu, he invited them...
"He Zhiqing, thank you for taking care of Grandpa Liu during this time. Come to our house for dinner tomorrow too."
Seeing that Gao Weishan hadn't left, he casually remarked, "Dr. Gao is here too."
I thought they would both refuse, but to my surprise, they both agreed.
Lu Yuan: ......
He was just being polite, why is he not being polite at all?
On the way back, Lu Yuan was still a little confused.
"It's one thing for He Zhiqing, but why would Dr. Gao agree to this?"
Wen Moxue guessed, "Could it be that they still want my medicine?"
Lu Yuan swayed as he drove the oxcart, stroking his chin in thought.
"It might actually be true."
She immediately curled her lip and said, "That old man is shameless. You didn't even ask him for the hemostatic powder, yet he's still eyeing other things."
