Chapter 1 Stowaway (1 / 2)



1968, Beijing.

"Jinghua, don't hesitate. Even if you don't think about yourself, you should think about our son, right?"

"As long as there is life, there will be no shortage of firewood. Our son is still so young, he has a better life ahead of him. We can't just accept his fate!"

The storm was about to hit their house, but her husband was still hesitating. Although Zhu Qingyuan complained in her heart, she still tried to persuade him earnestly.

Xiang Jinghua sighed helplessly, "Well, well, there is no better way now. When are we leaving?"

After hearing her husband's agreement, Zhu Qingyuan smiled and said, "We'll leave tomorrow night. The sooner we leave, the safer we'll be. My brother will arrange for someone to pick us up when we get there."

Xiang Jinghua nodded, "Okay, then hurry up and pack up. You take more valuable jewelry, and I'll take the gold bars as well. We don't need the other big items."

Antiques are valuable in prosperous times, gold is valuable in troubled times. This saying will never go out of date.

"By the way, go tell Nuan Nuan and ask her to clean up as well."

Zhu Qingyuan heard this, a trace of guilt flashed across her eyes, and then she said helplessly, "Jinghua, we may not be able to take Nuannuan with us."

Xiang Jinghua turned his head and looked at her in confusion, "Why?"

"You know we went there secretly, and it's hard to get an ID card there. My eldest brother spent a lot of money, begged many people, and finally got three places for us. We can't get more than that."

"What should we do? We can't just leave Nuannuan here alone, right?"

Although in his heart his daughter is not as important as his son, she is still his own flesh and blood after all, and the father-daughter relationship of twenty years is not fake.

Zhu Qingyuan smiled gently, put her arm around his, and said softly, "Since I married you, I have always treated Nuannuan as my own daughter, so I naturally can't bear to leave her. But the situation now is special, don't worry, after we settle down in Gangcheng, I will ask my eldest brother to find a way to bring Nuannuan over, and then our family will be reunited again."

Seeing that his brows were still furrowed, she continued to explain, "You also know that I haven't seen my eldest brother for many years, and we don't have a deep relationship. He is also impatient, and this time he has already caused a lot of trouble for him. We are now asking for help, and we can't be too pushy, otherwise if we make him angry, our whole family will be upset!"

Xiang Jinghua rubbed his hair in annoyance. "I donated all my ancestral property and thought I could live in peace. Now I have no way to survive. How can I feel at ease leaving Nuannuan here alone?"

Zhu Qingyuan patted his shoulder gently and consoled him softly, "We have no choice. Nuannuan is already an adult. I believe she can understand us."

"Hey! Let's pack up first."

"good."

Xiang Nuan stood outside the door and listened quietly. A sarcastic sneer appeared on the corner of her mouth, and she turned back to her room.

Just now she was staying up late to read the product information for tomorrow's live broadcast. She fell asleep while reading. When she opened her eyes again, she unexpectedly found herself in a period novel that she had been reading casually a few days ago.

According to the original owner's memory, it is now 1968, when the turbulent decade just began. The Xiang family has been doing business since the great-grandfather's generation. By the time of Xiang Jinghua's generation, he is not one of the best in Beijing, but he is still ranked in the top ten. He can be said to be a purebred capitalist. Although he has donated all the family properties in recent years, it is still very conspicuous at this sensitive time.
