Zhao Shugener took over and said he understood what the women at home meant. "It's not too much, not too little, right? Besides, let's make it up. If that doesn't work, write an IOU!"
"Yes, Tielin, the price of the house can be deducted from his earnings. I'll go back and talk to my two sons-in-law about borrowing some money. If we put it together as a partnership, we have to pay for it! It has to look like the real deal. If you don't want it, then let me see, it's 30% to 70%!"
Bi Yue heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, it was no wonder that Uncle Zhao had been able to help his family all these years. The Zhao family was indeed a good person.
Although Aunt Zhao looked like a powerful rural woman, she was much stronger than the women in people's imagination. She was indeed aware of the situation and she didn't hear any disheartening words.
The awkwardness lasted only a moment, but the enthusiasm continued unabated. The meal lasted until later than the normal business hour, and Ge Yufeng had already slumped over on the kang, snoring loudly from drinking too much.
Zhao Shugen held Bi Tielin's hand, and seemed to have never stopped talking. He talked about the difficulties Bi Yue's father had faced over the years, and how Bi Yue's aunt had taken care of her mother's family over the years.
The atmosphere at the dinner table changed from cheerful to a little sad.
Liang Xiaoxiao held Bi Yue's hand under the table. Today she finally heard everything clearly. Even when they were doing well before, Bi Yue never said anything.
And... Liang Xiaoxiao glanced at Bi Tielin secretly, her eyes flashing.
Just now, she was startled when she went to the toilet in the backyard. It was her uncle who handed her a flashlight. It came out of nowhere and scared her a lot. He also told her:
"Go home at night and rub it well with the medicated oil!"
Really, the closer I look, the less I realize he looks like someone who's been a criminal. Rather, he looks like... I can't quite put my finger on it.
…
At this moment, Bi Cheng's heart also changed. He took the initiative to get up and go to the kitchen with Zhao Dashan to cut meat. The moment he picked up the kitchen knife, he suddenly realized: it seemed like he hadn't worked for several days.
When they sat down again, Bi Cheng whispered to his sister in a flattering tone:
"Our school actually had a meeting today. I didn't go anywhere else. Many combat heroes who returned from the front lines are staying in the military hospital. The class held a class meeting to elect representatives to visit them in the hospital. Sister, I was actually chosen!"
In the past, Bi Cheng would never have dared to think about this. It wasn't that he wanted to be a marginal figure, it was that he wasn't outstanding in any aspect. Now...
The eighteen-year-old boy is undergoing quiet changes. Not only has his academic performance improved, but he is now also developing in an all-round way in terms of morality, intelligence, physical fitness, aesthetics and labor.
Liang Xiaoxiao was still an ambitious person. She whispered with regret, "What should we do, Bi Yue? We just had a fight, so there's no chance for us!"
Bi Yue snorted: "What good place is this? I won't go even if you ask me to."
What she didn't know was that she actually went there. In the morning, she sent her uncle out of the house and back to the Northeast. In the afternoon, she went to the military hospital as a student representative and presented flowers to a combat hero she knew.
