Lin Yuexi and Gong Mufeng looked at each other and nodded in agreement without hesitation. In their hearts, Zhao Gang is honest and reliable, and is an absolutely trustworthy person.
What's more, looking at the subtle affection between Zhao Gang and Lu Shufang, maybe Zhao Gang will really become Lu Shufang's husband in the future, and then they will be a family.
After everything was discussed, Zhao Gang took action with great vigor and determination.
Relying on the connections and relationships he had accumulated in Gan'an County, he ran around and completed all the procedures in just two days.
At the same time, Lu Shufang also moved into Gong Mufeng's courtyard house in accordance with the previous agreement, ready to help them look after the house.
Finally, everything was ready and Lin Yuexi's family welcomed the day of moving.
That morning, the sun shone into the yard, giving everything a warm golden hue.
Two low car engine sounds were heard outside the courtyard.
The new jeep that Zhao Gang drove stopped steadily at the door. Aunt Zhang was the first to hear the noise. She quickly put down the bag she was packing and walked quickly to the door.
"Wow, you're here so early!" she said with a smile, her face full of anticipation for a new life.
Gong Ziyan and Gong Xiyun were also attracted by the sound. They ran out like two happy deer, circling around the jeep, and occasionally reaching out to touch the shiny body of the car. They were very curious about this new jeep.
When Gong Jinyao saw Zhao Gang's jeep, Zhao Gang told her that it belonged to her sister-in-law. He couldn't believe it.
Her sister-in-law is so capable that she can even afford a car.
Lin Yuexi and Gong Mufeng then walked out of the house. They looked at the jeep in front of them and smiled at Gong Jinyao.
"Jinyao, this was bought with the money your sister-in-law earned from selling Gastrodia elata. Isn't it amazing?" Gong Mufeng said to her happily.
"Great, brother. Tell me if my sister-in-law has any skills that she hasn't shown yet..." Gong Jinyao gave a thumbs up and laughed.
"Your sister-in-law is both literary and martial, can make money, and more..." Gong Mufeng said proudly.
Seeing this, Lin Yuexi interrupted him with a smile, "Mu Feng, please stop bragging. You've made me forget who I am..."
Gong Mufeng said, "I didn't brag..."
At this time, Zhao Gang came over and said, "Everyone should hurry up and move your luggage! The sooner you set off, the better..."
Everyone nodded and took action immediately. Gong Mufeng took the lead in picking up a large box full of books and walked steadily towards the jeep. Seeing this, Zhao Gang hurried forward to help, and the two of them worked together to put the box steadily into the trunk.
Aunt Zhang carefully brought out a row of neatly folded quilts. Gong Jinyao and Lin Yuexi hurried over and together they placed the quilts in appropriate places in the car.
Gong Ziyan and Gong Xiyun were not to be outdone. They each held a small package and tried their best to imitate adults, carefully putting the packages into the car.
After putting it away, he excitedly showed everyone his "results", with a proud smile on his young face.
While busy, Gong Jinyao couldn't help asking Lin Yuexi, "Sister-in-law, how much money did you make from selling Gastrodia elata? How could you afford such a nice jeep?"
Lin Yuexi smiled, blinked mysteriously and said, "I can't tell you this, but when there's a chance in the future, I'll take you to see something even more powerful."
After hearing this, Gong Jinyao's eyes sparkled with curiosity, and her admiration for Lin Yuexi increased a little more.
After all the luggage was loaded, everyone stood at the gate of the courtyard and looked around again at this place full of memories.
The breeze blew gently, and the old locust tree in the yard rustled, as if telling stories of the past.
Lin Yuexi's heart was filled with emotion. This place witnessed every bit of her time in Gan'an County, including laughter and tears. Now she was really leaving.
Lu Shufang, who was standing at the door, said, "Yuexi, I'll help you look after this house. If you want to come back in the future, just come back..."
Gong Mufeng seemed to sense her emotions, and he gently held her hand and said softly, "Don't be sad, this will always be our home, and we will come back if we have the chance in the future."
Zhao Gang looked at the time and said, "It's almost time, let's go."
Everyone got in the car. Gong Mufeng drove, Lin Yuexi and Zhang Ma sat in the upper part, while Gong Jinyao, Gong Ziyan and Gong Xiyun sat in the car driven by Zhao Gang.
With the roar of the engines, two jeeps slowly drove away from the courtyard. Gong Ziyan and Gong Xiyun leaned against the car window and waved goodbye to the yard excitedly: "Aunt, goodbye!"
The car drove away and Lu Shufang stood at the door and waved to them.
Along the way, the two children chattered non-stop, discussing their past experiences in Beijing years ago.
Gong Jinyao occasionally exchanged a few words with Zhao Gang, sharing their experiences during the journey.
Lin Yuexi leaned quietly against the car window, staring at the scenery passing by quickly outside the window, her thoughts drifting away involuntarily.
Recalling the telegram I received from Master Bai a few days ago, the clear lines of handwriting on the telegram seemed to still appear before my eyes:
The courtyard has been renovated, and they can move in directly without having to go to live in the Gong family.
Thinking of this, Lin Yuexi's mouth corners unconsciously rose, and her heart was filled with uncontrollable joy.
Having a warm and cozy little home that belongs entirely to her and taking root in this prosperous city of Beijing has always been her most beautiful dream, and now this dream has become a reality.
From now on, when the policy is liberalized, she will create a business empire of her own in Beijing. How can this not be exciting?
During this journey, everyone took into consideration the fatigue of long-distance driving and did not rush blindly.
During the journey, they took turns driving from time to time to ensure that everyone could maintain sufficient energy;
Sometimes we would choose to stop at a guesthouse with decent conditions and take a short rest.
Although the rest in the guesthouse that night was short, it allowed everyone to recharge their batteries and be fully prepared for the upcoming journey.
After a long journey of two days and one night, their convoy finally drove slowly into the territory of Beijing.
Lin Yuexi looked at the scene in front of her, her heart full of emotion, and then she gave instructions in an orderly manner: "Mu Feng, Brother Zhao Gang, let's drive the car directly to the entrance of the courtyard alley I bought."
So the car stopped steadily at the entrance of the alley, and everyone got out and started moving their luggage.
Everyone had a clear division of labor. Gong Mufeng and Zhao Gang were responsible for carrying the heavy boxes, while Lin Yuexi and Zhang Ma carefully sorted out some small items. Gong Jinyao and the children were not to be outdone and carried some small packages to the best of their ability.
Gong Jinyao was moving the luggage while looking around, her heart full of confusion and curiosity.
The moment she walked into the courtyard, she was completely stunned by the scene before her. Although this courtyard is not luxurious, it is full of simple and elegant charm.
The main house and the wing rooms are arranged in an orderly manner, and the carvings on the doors and windows are exquisite and delicate, revealing the atmosphere of classical life everywhere.
