Zhang Lai was driving a tractor, carrying a lot of stuff. In the truck bed sat Su Li, Xie's mother, Xie's father, and a few other children.
Xie Zhengchuan, Xie Zhenghe and Xie Zhengyang rode over on their bicycles.
The police station compound is quite lively every day. All the people living here are family members. When they see the family members of other police officers moving in, they all come to take a look. The men all work in the same company, so it is best if they can get along well with each other.
As soon as Su Li's car stopped, someone came over. They were the young guards under Xie Zhengchuan.
"Sister-in-law, I'm Xu Zhou, and this is Wang Lei. We're both Captain Xie's apprentices. We'll come help you move your things when we're free tomorrow."
Wang Lei reached out and took Jingyu from Su Li's arms, "Oh, this child is so cute, sister-in-law, let me help you hold him, these are grandpa and aunt, you can rest here after getting off the car, we two brothers can move it."
"Yeah yeah!"
Su Li said, "I'm sorry to bother you so much. How can I do this?"
"No."
"That's right, these are all little ones. We just don't have any at this time."
Zhang Lai opened the door of the truck and helped Xie's mother and father get out of the car. Li Dan and several other children also jumped out of the car.
He called out "Hello Uncle" and ran to the yard.
"Grandpa, grandma, come and see our room, it's so nice."
"Yes, grandma, my mom bought me a pink bed, a small cabinet, and a small table. They are so pretty. Come and see, grandma."
"Hey, walk slower, walk slower, grandpa and grandma can't keep up with you."
Shitou ran two steps, turned back, slowly reached out and held Xie's father's hand, while Li Dan followed Xie's mother and watched her carefully.
Looking at their understanding grandchildren, Mr. and Mrs. Xie felt sweet in their hearts. Look how well-behaved their grandchildren are.
Su Li looked at the two old men, smiled and shook her head.
Soon, Xie Zhengchuan's three brothers also arrived at the compound.
After everyone helped move, Xie's mother handed Jinghui to Xie Zhengyang, and she helped Su Li pack her things.
Actually, there wasn't much to clean up, just some of the children's things and Xie Zhengchuan's books, but he had to clean them up himself.
Xie's mother put all the dishes and dried vegetables she made, as well as spicy beans and other things in the kitchen.
Xie Zhengchuan was chatting with Xie Zhenghe and Xuzhou in the living room. Su Li put Jinghui's things in the small cabinet.
Just as I was putting Jingyu and the others' toys into a clean little basket, Xie's mother pushed the door open and came in.
After Su Li put the things away, she said to Xie's mother, "Mom, there's nothing to do here. I've already agreed with Zhengchuan that he will take everyone to a state-owned restaurant for dinner. You and Dad haven't been there yet, so think about ordering something delicious."
Mother Xie looked at Su Li and smiled, "Don't worry, come and sit down."
Su Li was a little confused by Xie's mother, "What's wrong, mother? What's the matter?"
Mother Xie turned her head to look at the door, then looked at Su Li and said with a smile: "Here, this is some money that Dad and Mom prepared for you, take it."
Su Li looked at the bulging handkerchief with money that Xie's mother took out from her bosom. After Xie's mother opened it, Su Li saw that there was about one thousand yuan.
Smiling, he pushed back Xie's mother's hand and said, "Mom, what are you doing? We have money, we don't need it. Look at how profitable the garment factory is. We've also started to get orders from the furniture factory. And our clothing store, which I own in the provincial capital..."
Before Su Li could finish, Xie's mother interrupted her and said, "My child, both my father and mother know that you are not short of money. Your business has been doing well for more than a year. Both my father and mother have seen it. The pig farm in Zhengyang and his brother-in-law are doing well now. And the cannery in Zhenghe, I heard from your sister-in-law the other day that it has made a lot of money and has recovered its capital. We have hired people to look after the orchard on the mountain, and you helped buy feed for the crops in the field. It is all thanks to you that our family can live such a good life. Look at the surrounding villages. Who doesn't envy us?"
"Mom, please don't say that. It's all thanks to my eldest and second brothers who work hard. Our family is doing well because of you and Dad's leadership."
"We are farmers. We can't earn so much money even if we work hard. Mom and Dad know this. We don't have the means. This money is all given by you brothers and sisters. Your father and I are reluctant to spend it. Although you can all earn money, Mom and Dad can't help but save it for you. Last time your eldest brother and second brother built a house, Mom decided to divide the family. They all got their share of the money. When we gave it to the third brother, he didn't want it. You keep this. Don't think it's too little."
"Mom." Su Li looked at the slightly gray hair on Xie's mother's head and felt warm in her heart.
Xie's mother pouted and looked at her, pretending to be angry. "Why? You think it's too little? Your parents can still do a lot. The crops in the fields are growing well. We can sell them and save the money to marry my grandchildren."
Su Li looked at Mother Xie with moist eyes and said with trembling lips: "Hey, thank you, mother."
Su Li and Xie's mother had another conversation.
Xie Zhengchuan knocked on the door and said, "Xiao Li, come out quickly. The neighbors in the compound are here to talk to you."
Su Li and Xie's mother smiled at each other, opened the door and walked out. Those who came were all family members, women, old people and children. These people really needed Su Li and Xie's mother to take care of them.
Mother Xie held a basket of melon seeds, peanuts and fruit candies, distributed some to the visitors, and then handed some to the children who came to her house.
"My son and daughter-in-law will live here from now on. Please take good care of them!"
"Of course, of course."
"Oh, that's so polite. Why are you giving me so many goodies? I've never seen this candy before."
"Yes, these melon seeds are also very fragrant!"
Su Li and Xie's mother talked with the visitors for a long time. Maybe they had heard that their family was giving out candies or something, but there were so many children and women who came, one round after another. She and Xie's mother added fruit candies and melon seeds several times.
Hu Zi and Shi Tou were watching from the side, feeling very distressed, especially Shi Tou. He had just seen several naughty kids eating their delicious food and making faces at him.
Humph! Just wait, I will beat them so hard that they won’t dare to even fart.
Stone thought so.
Near noon, the neighbors reluctantly returned home.
Xie Zhengchuan invited everyone to have dinner at a state-owned restaurant. When Xie Zhengyang heard this, his eyes widened. He had never been to a state-owned restaurant to have dinner. He was in for a treat.
But looking at so many people, I tried my best to appear calm.
Zhang Lai drove a tractor and took a group of people to the state-owned restaurant. Xuzhou and Wang Lei were actually very embarrassed. They thought there were a lot of things to move, but they didn't expect it was just a little bit. Not only did they not help, they also had to come here to eat.
But after sitting down and looking at the table full of food, the embarrassment in my heart was immediately forgotten. At the command of Xie's father, "Let's start eating", everyone started to feast on the food, starting with Xie Zhengyang.
