Grandpa Wang smiled and said, "I have locked the door since you entered the inner room. Hurry and give the things to Xiao Ning."
Grandma Wang put the box on the table and opened it. It was a set of jade jewelry.
A string of jade beads of excellent quality, a necklace, a pair of earrings, a pair of ear studs, two bracelets, a ring, a thumb ring, and a brooch, which look very valuable.
Xu Ning quickly declined, "Grandma Wang, Grandpa Wang, this thing is too valuable, I can't accept it. I came here today just to give you some wedding candy, not this."
Grandma Wang took her hand and said, "Xiao Ning, we don't know who you are yet. I have prepared these things for you since last year, waiting to give them to you when you get married. Please accept them."
He took out six large yellow croakers from another box and said, "Take these and exchange them for some money, and buy yourself some cloth to make two sets of clothes."
Xu Ning looked at these things, then looked at the two gray-haired old men in front of him, and his eyes became hot.
She smiled and said, "Okay, Grandpa Wang, Grandma Wang, I'll accept it. From now on, I'll be your granddaughter. If you have any problems, come to me."
Both old men responded happily.
Grandma Wang took her hand and asked, "Xiao Ning, what does your partner do?"
Xu Ning smiled and said, "Grandpa Wang, Grandma Wang, he is a soldier. I will bring him to visit you in a while."
Xu Ning chatted with the two elders for a while and then prepared to go back, otherwise he would miss Old Chen's ox cart.
She found a deserted place, took out a pig's head from the space, and also took out a set of pig offal and two kilograms of meat, preparing to use them on the wedding day.
When she got home, Lu Xiaotang and Xu Yang had already returned and were cleaning the yard.
When Lu Xiaotang saw her come in, he hurried over to take her backpack. Seeing the pig head and offal inside, he went to the kitchen to get a large basin to wash them.
Seeing such a big pig head, Xu Yang asked, "Sister, do you want to eat braised pig head tonight?"
Xu Ning looked at him speechlessly and said, "This is for the wedding day. If we eat it today, how are we going to treat the guests that day?"
"Xiaotang and I were just talking about going into the mountains to hunt some prey tomorrow for your wedding day, and you bought it back now."
Lu Xiaotang smiled and said, "Let's make something to eat later. I'll go into the mountains again tomorrow. Have you calculated how many tables there are?"
Xu Ning thought for a moment and said, "Let's prepare six tables! I originally planned four tables, but yesterday a few aunts in the village said they wanted to come over to have a drink that day, and a few uncles who helped me repair the house also said they wanted to come and have some fun."
Lu Xiaotang nodded and said, "Okay, let's prepare six tables."
"When did you get back from the city today? How did that incident go?"
Lu Xiaotang said, "We found where he hid his things, and submitted a letter of complaint. The higher-ups immediately sent people to investigate him.
Li Shiyou was a cruel and ruthless person who had offended many people. Now that he was in trouble, everyone blamed him and many people went to report his evil deeds.
He has been locked up now, and his brother-in-law Cao Bo and his wife have been arrested. If nothing unexpected happens, someone will come to question Wang Juanjuan tomorrow morning. ”
Xu Yang also said, "You can't imagine where that person hid the things. Xiaotang and I followed him for two days and found that he buried all those things next to his family's ancestral tomb.
You have no idea how many good things there were. There was a box of gold, and many antiques and jewelry. Xiaotang and I were shocked when we dug them out and saw them. I heard from Brother Jianshe that after we arrested him, we went to search his house and found a lot of things hidden at home. ”
Xu Ning asked, "What about those things now? Are they still buried there?"
Xu Yang replied, "We dug it out and took a look, and found that it had been buried again, so we wrote a letter to report him. Now the things have been dug out and handed in."
Xu Ning asked hurriedly, "Have you handed them all in? Did you leave a few pieces when you dug?"
After hearing this, the two of them looked at her.
Xu Ning saw that both of them were looking at her, then she reacted, laughed awkwardly and said, "It's good to hand it in, it's good to hand it in, it should be handed in, hehe."
The two looked at each other and saw smiles in each other's eyes. They really didn't realize that this girl was such a money-grubber.
The next morning, Lu Xiaotang and Xu Yang were tidying up the yard. Xu Ning was sitting there washing clothes when they heard Wang Juanjuan crying from the Youth League compound.
She put the clothes in the basin and prepared to go and see what was going on.
All the people in the Youth League Home were standing in the yard, and Wang Juanjuan had already been taken away by the police.
Gu Wenping and Gu Wenjing were just about to go into the city to call Wang Juanjuan's home and tell them about the situation here. After all, they grew up together, and if something happened to her here, they had to notify her parents.
When Wei Lanlan saw Xu Ning coming, she hurriedly took her into the house and whispered, "It seems that something happened to Wang Juanjuan's boyfriend, and she was also involved."
After saying that, he looked at her again and asked, "Do you know about this?"
Xu Ning immediately denied it, "How could I know? I don't know him."
Wei Lanlan glanced at her with a smile, and neither of them talked about this topic anymore.
Wei Lanlan asked her again, "How are your wedding preparations going?"
Xu Ning said, "There's nothing to prepare. My brother and his friends are at home cleaning the yard. Why is your little fat boy sleeping all day?"
After saying that, he touched the little guy who was sleeping soundly.
"All children are like this, they sleep a lot. You will understand when you have a child. They sleep during the day and cry at night. They are very clingy."
Xu Ning...
Is it okay that she is not married yet? Why are we talking about having children?
After lunch, Lu Xiaotang and Xu Yang went into the mountains and did not come back until Xu Ning prepared dinner.
There were a few rabbits, two pheasants and a roe deer in the backpack.
Lu Xiaotang said, "There were too many people cutting wood on the mountain these two days, so we didn't dare to fight the big guys."
Xu Ning looked inside the backpack and said, "These are not a small amount."
After dinner, Lu Xiaotang and Xu Ning were discussing the dishes for the wedding day. Seeing that there was nothing for Xu Yang to do without, he went to the cowshed.
"Six dishes for a table is enough. The portions should be bigger. I bought a few bottles of wine when I went to the county town yesterday. Put one bottle on each table."
Lu Xiaotang looked at her lovingly and said, "Okay, I'll do as you say."
Then he took out a purse and said, "This is my salary and mission allowance for this year. Keep it. There is 200 yuan in it from my uncle and uncle."
Xu Ning thought that they were both going to get married, so he didn't say anything polite. He just took it and opened it to have a look. It was quite a lot, at least several hundred.
"Then please thank my elder and younger uncles on my behalf, and bring them some dried vegetables and mountain products when you go back.
You send me twenty dollars every month, how come there is still so much left? ”
I am now a battalion commander. I earn more than 80 yuan a month and I also receive allowances when I am on a mission. There is not much need to spend money in the army.
