The grandfather and grandson only brought back a large wooden box, which contained the treasures for the house that Li Xiyue had carefully selected.
While Lu Feng and Zhuang Le were still asleep, the grandfather and grandson hurried back to the house to wash up and go to bed.
After only two or three hours of sleep, Zhuang Le came knocking on the door. Li Xiyue had made up for her sleep and felt energetic. Liao Qingshan was old after all and rarely stayed up late to do heavy work, so he felt sore in his back.
"Did you go out to steal last night?" Zhuang Le couldn't help but tease Liao Qingshan when he saw how tired he was.
Liao Qingshan was stunned. He really was a thief, but he stole his own things.
Li Xiyue quickly tried to smooth things over, "Grandpa rarely travels far, and he must be tired from the car ride. Let him have a good rest, and I'll go shopping with you."
"Okay, let's go." Zhuang Le took her arm and walked away happily.
Liao Qingshan returned to his room, locked the door and continued to catch up on his sleep.
They shopped for the whole day and bought a lot of things. Lu Feng followed them the whole time, acting as their protector and carrying things for them.
Li Xiyue felt that Lu Feng's eyes had changed when he looked at Zhuang Le, so she asked quietly, "Sister Lele, you're not going to take Brother Lu down, are you?"
"No." Zhuang Le shook his head. "I haven't had time to use what you taught me yet."
Li Xiyue said, "But I feel that Brother Lu treats you differently."
"What's the difference?" Zhuang Le didn't notice anything different. "No difference at all."
Li Xiyue couldn't explain it either. "It's a feeling, I can't really put it into words."
"Maybe it's because I, a beauty, saved the hero, and he was impressed by my cleverness and wisdom." Zhuang Le said, and laughed shamelessly.
Li Xiyue was also amused by her shamelessness.
Lu Feng, who was following behind, was puzzled. "What are you talking about? You look so happy?"
"Nothing, nothing, we've had enough shopping, let's go back!"
We returned to the hotel and had dinner. It was cold, so we all went to bed early.
The next day, Li Xiyue went to Grandma Zhang's house.
"Yueyue, you're back?" Grandma Zhang was overjoyed to see Li Xiyue. "Come in and sit down. Why did you bring so many things?"
She was the only one at home; her son, daughter-in-law and grandson had gone back to her parents' home.
Li Xiyue followed her into the house. "Nothing. I haven't seen you for many years. Is Grandma Zhang in good health?"
"I'm fine." Grandma Zhang went to make a cup of brown sugar water, then pulled her to sit on the sofa. "Child, you've suffered a lot in the countryside these years, haven't you?"
Li Xiyue shook her head. "No, I'm doing fine. Grandma, my grandpa has found someone. We live in Beijing now. I'm also looking for a partner and will be getting married soon."
"Oh, that's great. Is your grandpa in good health? Is your partner from Beijing?"
"My grandfather is in good health, and my boyfriend's family is in the capital."
After looking at her, Grandma Zhang was relieved. "Child, I'm relieved to see that you are doing well. Are you going back to the city? You don't have to go to the countryside anymore?"
"Yes, I'm back in the city. I work in Beijing." Li Xiyue drank some sugar water and felt sweet in her heart.
"Okay, okay." Grandma Zhang wiped her tears, thought of something, and asked, "By the way, do you still want your house? If you do..."
"No, we bought a house in Beijing, and I'm afraid we won't be coming back to live here in the future." Li Xiyue smiled and said, "Tell your sister-in-law to let her nephew live here peacefully."
This old and dilapidated house has been lived in by Li Bowen's family for more than ten years. It has become dirty. She doesn't want it. She is not short of a house now.
Grandma Zhang nodded, and then took her aside to talk about many family matters. When she talked about Li Bowen's family, she was still extremely indignant and scolded the family of four harshly.
After scolding, he felt sorry for Li Xiyue and her daughter. "Your mother is such a good person, but it's a pity that she married the wrong person. Good child, you have suffered in the past."
Then I thought about how she had finally gotten her happiness after all the hardship, and I was happy for her. "First comes the hardship, then comes the sweetness. Good fortune is yet to come."
Li Xiyue went to see Grandma Zhang, and Liao Qingshan also went out alone.
He went to see some old friends and found someone to continue to take care of the houses. He also asked someone to clean up the clinic and take care of it together so that he could sell it in a few years.
After arranging everything, he took out all the money in the passbook.
"Grandpa, have you taken out all the money?" Li Xiyue was surprised when she saw the big bag of money.
Liao Qingshan said: "Now that you are back, I must take out the money. Then I will let you take it to the Chu family, so that I can have the confidence."
"Grandpa, I'm already very confident." Li Xiyue was both amused and helpless.
But it’s okay to withdraw it. In that era, there were no branches, so it was impossible to withdraw money across provinces. It was more convenient to withdraw it and deposit it in a bank in Beijing.
But it’s not very safe to bring so much money back by train. My grandfather is with me and I can’t leave any space.
I had to empty the suitcase and fill it with money.
The largest amount of money in that era was ten yuan, so eighty thousand yuan was a lot, and it took two suitcases to pack it all.
We need to buy two more suitcases to carry their luggage.
So, we had two suitcases when we came, but when we left, we had four, plus a large wooden box.
Zhuang Le was shocked when he saw their behavior. "Sister, what did you buy behind my back?"
"Dowry." Li Xiyue laughed dryly, "This is the dowry my grandfather prepared for me."
Liao Qingshan touched his nose and said, "I only have this one granddaughter. When she gets married, I must prepare more dowry."
"Sister, I really envy you."
Liao Qingshan said: "Don't worry, when you get married, your master and my uncle will also prepare a dowry for you."
"Yes, and your dad will also prepare a lot." Li Xiyue also said.
Zhuang Le finally laughed, "It seems getting married is a good thing."
"Who's getting married?" Lu Feng came out of the house and asked without knowing the situation.
