Around 2 p.m., the two hungry people lay on the bed, not wanting to move at all.
We're all exhausted.
But I don't have much strength.
And sleeping with the air conditioning on and a blanket is just so comfortable.
Gu Anran propped herself up as she tried to sit up so they could go to the third floor to browse the warehouse: "I'm starving."
Wu An refused to get up.
Gu Anran grabbed a pillow and threw it at him.
Wu An chuckled.
"Get up quickly, it's getting late, and it'll be too late to go home after dinner." Gu Anran got out of bed and muttered, "If we hurry, we can still have time to go shopping for a while."
Wu An also got out of bed.
"Why did you follow me again? Didn't you not want to get up?"
"Get out, get out, oh dear!"
Wu Anyi said sternly, "Do you know how scarce water resources are? Protecting water resources is everyone's responsibility."
"..."
More than half an hour later, Wu An came out after taking a refreshing shower. Finally, the two of them lingered until after three o'clock before leaving the house.
Gu Anran punched him as she walked, saying, "It's all your fault, I didn't have time to go shopping."
"Hurry up."
What are you dawdling about?
Hurry, hurry, hurry!
Wu An's eyes lit up; he had a way to deal with Gu Anran.
I got out of the elevator.
He walked even slower.
With one hand supporting her waist and the other against the wall, she swayed as she walked to the front desk.
The receptionist glanced at him, then looked at Gu Anran as if he were a god. She also liked reading novels, and there were often descriptions of people walking out of a building while leaning against the wall, but she had never seen it in real life.
I thought the author was just making things up, but it turns out it's true.
Gu Anran wished she could strangle Wu An.
That's such a convincing impersonation!
That's terrible!
The young woman returned the deposit to Gu Anran and whispered, "Little sister, you're really amazing."
"..." Gu Anran's lips twitched, feeling ashamed and indignant, and she grabbed Wu An and ran away.
I went outside.
Gu Anran angrily punched him with her little fists.
It just doesn't have much power.
They were probably really starving.
The two of them went to the pedestrian street, strolled around and ate, and came out with several shopping bags in their hands after they had eaten and drunk their fill.
I didn't go to the bus station.
He hailed a taxi, and the driver happened to live in town. They agreed on a price and set off, first taking Gu Anran home.
The old lady was at the door.
Wu An got out of the car and greeted them.
After getting home and paying the fare, as the taxi drove away, Sister Duan said sarcastically, "Oh, you've really struck it rich, taking a taxi back."
Wu An smiled but didn't say anything.
She's already so jealous just from taking a taxi; what will she do if he brings one back someday, Sister Duan?
I said hello and went back to the yard.
The courtyard was bustling with activity; there were quite a few people there, mostly from the village, and many of them were from the Wu family.
Wu An greeted everyone politely, knowing that so many people had come because of his engagement.
After looking around, Lao Meng was there, but his elder brother and sister-in-law were not home.
When I asked, my dad told me not to ask around.
The courtyard was bustling with activity as everyone offered advice on his engagement. Wu An looked around and realized he was like an outsider, unable to get a word in edgewise or offer any real help.
Although it's just an engagement and not a wedding, they take it very seriously.
It was full of ritual.
"Dad, can you arrange something for me too?"
"Okay... Go and call Aqing over."
"good."
It was just a phone call away, and soon Aqing arrived. Upon learning that it was about Wu An's engagement, she naturally asked Wu Yingwei for instructions without hesitation, promising to do everything perfectly.
Seeing that Aqing had also been assigned tasks, Wu An was bewildered. So, he wasn't involved at all?
night.
When my brother and sister-in-law returned, their expressions were somber.
After investigating, I found out that it wasn't just one person who had a problem, but both of them had some issues.
But it's not a big problem.
The doctor also said that as long as the treatment is completed according to the prescribed course, there will definitely be no problem having a child.
"The doctor said we're still relatively young. If we had waited a few more years, it might have been really difficult to conceive."
Wu An looked at the test report and asked, "Weren't these treatments quite painful?"
Sister-in-law Mei Yueqin nodded.
Besides taking medicine and getting injections, I have to go to the county every week to use the equipment in the hospital.
Wu An didn't have much to say; no wonder his brother and sister-in-law never had children in their previous life.
He put down the medical report and said, "It'll only take three months, so please bear with me."
"If all goes well, I'll have a nephew or niece the year after next, maybe even twins, all at once."
Mei Yueqin laughed and said, "How could it be that good?"
As they chatted and laughed, the atmosphere gradually improved.
What can we do?
Every family has its own troubles, but luckily Wu An is a capable young man. Now the family is doing well and has plenty of money. They don't have to worry about money anymore, which is already a great blessing.
night.
Wu An took out the things Gu Anran had bought for him. Wu Yingwei saw them and said, "Why did you give me all the money I gave you to buy things and then return it to me?"
Wu An said, "The money you gave me is mine, and what's mine belongs to An Ran. Buying you things is An Ran's way of showing her appreciation."
What else could Wu Yingwei say? His daughter-in-law bought it for him, so he immediately tried it on and it fit perfectly.
The next morning.
The typhoon has fully formed and is heading their way; the wind is getting stronger and stronger.
Without having breakfast, he picked up Gu Anran on his bike and took her to town. After having breakfast, the two went to look at the storefront they had just bought.
I went around in a circle.
The storefronts on the first floor are mostly rented out, and rent is being collected normally.
The second floor is a bit special; it's also been rented out as a dance training center, and the owner has been gone for half a year.
Naturally, there is no rent.
Who are you?
"It was you guys who bought it."
"Landlord".
"Landlady".
Hello, hello.
"Haha, get rich, get rich."
"You guys are busy, we just came to check in."
Wu An responded with a smile. Most of the tenants were quite enthusiastic, but some were indifferent, such as the tenants of the two storefronts on the far east side.
That's understandable.
The business lost money.
They said business was tough and they couldn't find anyone willing to take over, implying that he should lower the rent.
Wu An told them to keep going.
He also said that the town would develop soon and business would improve.
The rent is non-negotiable and may even increase in the future, leaving the tenants speechless. How did such a young man become such a shrew!
Wu An didn't argue with the tenants. What he said wasn't just casual talk; it actually revealed information about the future.
Gu Anran didn't say a word from beginning to end. She felt a little lightheaded, as if she were walking on cotton, as if she were in a dream. Although a day had passed, she still felt very unreal.
Just two days ago at this time, she was worried about how to find a storefront, but today she has transformed into a "landlady".
Thank goodness this is reality.
She wouldn't even dare to dream of something this wonderful.
This is even better than getting rich overnight!
