The meal lasted until after two in the afternoon.
Huo Zhenting had to return to the army in the afternoon, so he left first. Before leaving, he pulled Lu Xiaotang aside and whispered for a while.
"When Han Rui's grandson found out that you were going to be the leader of the independent regiment, his eyes were so red that they were about to bleed.
Once you take office, he will definitely try to trip you up. You'd better be careful. That guy is very sinister. Don't fall into his trap. ”
Lu Xiaotang patted his shoulder and said with a smile: "I understand."
Seeing that he was smiling so gently, Huo Zhenting felt that his reminder was a bit redundant. When it came to playing dirty, the man in front of him was a master. Compared with Han Rui and Lu Xiaotang, they were just child's play.
He thought with amusement that there would be fun to watch in the future.
Xu Ning and Lu Xiaotang sent them to the door and handed Fang Yanyun a portion of dried fish. "Soak it in water before eating. You can steam or braise it."
Fang Yanyun said embarrassedly: "Thank you, sister-in-law."
Huo Zhenting took the things in his hands and said with a smile: "Why are you being polite to my sister-in-law?"
Fang Yanyun glared at him. This man was so shameless. Others invited him to dinner and gave him gifts, but he didn't even say thank you.
Lu Xiaotang smiled and said to the two of them, "Okay, go back quickly, don't you have something else to do in the army?"
Huo Zhenting took his wife and waved to the two of them, saying, "Brother, sister-in-law, let's go now."
When Wen Qing and the others were leaving, Xu Ning took out the gifts he had prepared and asked them to take one back each.
Lu Xiaotang called Mingyu and Song Mingyuan into the house, "Brother-in-law, Mingyu, Xiaoning and I went to the south to buy some watches and clothes this time. Are you two interested?"
The two's eyes lit up when they heard this, and Mingyu asked hurriedly, "Brother Lu, you and sister-in-law are really quick.
A few days ago, my brother-in-law and I were discussing a trip to Guangdong Province after the school holidays, but I didn’t expect that both of you would go there. ”
Song Mingyuan asked, "Xiaotang, is it easy to get goods from Guangdong Province?"
Lu Xiaotang thought of the thugs at the dock, shook his head and said, "It's very risky, Xiao Ning and I were lucky this time.
We rescued the director of a garment factory and he gave us some goods.
He also helped introduce the watch. If you don’t have connections, it would be difficult to get it. ”
The two were a little disappointed after hearing this. Mingyu looked at him again, "Brother Lu, did you mean to let my brother-in-law and I join the group?"
Lu Xiaotang nodded and said, "I will be going to the army tomorrow, and I may not have much time to do these things if I am busy.
Besides, my identity is not very convenient. If you two want to do it, I won’t look for anyone else. ”
Mingyu hurriedly said, "Brother Lu, why are you looking for someone else? My brother-in-law and I will do it."
Song Mingyuan also immediately expressed his opinion, "Xiaotang, don't worry! Leave it to the two of us."
Lu Xiaotang smiled and said, "Okay, Xiao Ning and I will discuss this later and we will come up with some rules."
Xu Ning and Xu Yang were cleaning up the unused dishes in the kitchen.
"Sister, you told me to build a new room next to the gatehouse. How do we do that?"
"Brother, build it bigger and leave a big window close to the road."
"What are you going to do?"
Xu Ning sighed: “Isn’t this Grandpa Qi and Grandpa Wang, who always feel that they can’t help much and eat white rice at home.
I just wanted to find something for them to do. Actually, the two old people are not that old, and if they have something to do, their lives can be more fulfilling. ”
Xu Yang was surprised and said, "You mean to let Grandpa Qi and Grandpa Wang do business, but although there are people doing business in Beijing now, they are all doing it secretly. How can they open a store openly?"
"Brother, haven't you noticed? Things are different now than before. Even though they are doing business secretly, no one cares if they set up their stalls on the street.
Besides, we are not going to open a store and do business right away. So while you have time now, build the house first and wait until the policy changes. ”
Xu Yang thought about it and realized it was true. There were people setting up stalls outside to sell breakfast, and there were quite a lot of people eating there, but no one came to take care of it.
"Okay, I got it. I'll go buy the materials tomorrow and find someone to build it."
Xu Ning smiled and nodded, "Brother, Xiaotang will go to the army tomorrow, and Sister Xiaoran and the others are back too. I won't be back home these two days. You tell mom and dad that I'll move in after school starts."
"I understand. Let Xiao Mo stay here to help you carry the candies. Don't worry about your family. Xiao An and I will take good care of Grandpa Wang and Grandpa Qi."
“Let Xiao An, Jian Min and the others teach Grandpa Wang and Grandpa Qi how to ride a bicycle.
Ask them to be careful and not to drop the two elderly people. ”
Xu Yang smiled and said, “After you left yesterday, Grandpa Wang and Grandpa Qi started practicing.
But I didn’t want to use the new bicycle for practice, so I used the old one I brought from Yushu Village.
They learned pretty quickly. Even with Xiao An Dalin and I supporting them from behind, they were able to ride by themselves. ”
Xu Ning smiled and said, "As long as they like it."
