Chapter 1696: Chapter 1696: Preparing to Build a House 4
The Gu Family sent Feng Qingxue fish dumplings, which she still couldn’t bear to eat. She put them into her space, intending to let Lu Jiang have a taste.
As for the elderly and children at ho, it’s not that she’s not thinking of them, but aside from Lu’s father knowing about the existence of the space, she can’t explain the origin of the fish dumplings to Cheng Baoguo and his wife and children.
Rarely having free ti without children disturbing her, Feng Qingxue spent the afternoon wielding her brush.
After drying and folding them neatly, she sent them to Wen Ruyu, asking him to give his comnts. She hadn’t returned to her hotown for years, relying solely on letters.
Naturally, Feng Qingxue bought a batch of seafood and sent it together with the letters back ho, received by Guan Yu and Zhou Zhou, then distributed evenly among her three uncles, little aunt, and Wang Jiao, expressing that she still thinks of them while being in the South Sea. The rest was left for themselves and the group of relocated elders, as a bit of her sentint.
They were very emotional when they received them, especially Aunt Xu, who secretly wiped her tears, telling her old companion, “In this lifeti, we’ve truly been blessed by Xiaoxue, sothing our own children couldn’t do.”
They have four children, currently, they can only contact their twin children.
Living in the Great Northern Wilderness, the two kids have already started their own families. With children, life is tight, and sotis the old couple has to supplent a bit of food and cotton for them. Especially hearing they have children, the old couple often troubles Feng Qingxue to get so brown sugar, millet, fabric, and nutrition supplies to send over. They have managed to get through it safely, though they haven’t t.
The other two sons, one is in the Northwest, the other in the Southeast, moved there with their families in the fifties. They were only contacted during difficult tis, with food procured from Feng Qingxue sent by the old couple. They sent so money back, but contact gradually diminished, unsure if they are alive or dead.
The Southeastern coastal region is slightly better, but the Northwest is barren, unsure of the situation there.
Uncle Xu patted his wife’s hand, “Otherwise, why do we say the biggest luck in our lives is eting Xiaoxue? Don’t cry, in our family’s situation, having no news from the children might be the best news. We’ve lived to this old age, seventy is rare in history, what is there we can’t let go of? Everyone settles their own fate, we don’t expect them to take care of us in our old age.”
Aunt Xu nodded, “You’re right, everyone settles their own fate, that’s what it is. Go to sleep, old man. Ayu ntioned wanting to rebuild the house, spring is here and we can start work, we’ll have things to keep busy with!”
“Although Ayu has money from Acheng, enough for the brothers to buy a hostead and build a house, we need to wait for Old Lu to return, right?”
“Of course, Old Lu is the head of the family.”
The Lu Family’s household registration followed Lu Jiang. Lu Tianjun joined the military, the Guan Cheng brothers and Lu Tianzhi went to work, and their registration and food oil relationships were no longer with Wanglou Brigade, leaving only Lu’s father.
He was also thinking about the new house construction, returning to the hotown in late February with Xibao in a dusty rush.
Having grown into a teenager, Xibao was as popular as ever.
Lu’s father was still vigorous, first finding Wang Zhenguo to buy a piece of hostead located in front of the Lu Family for Guan Cheng and Guan Yu. Ayu paid more for it, thirty yuan higher than the Lu Family’s hostead, for a total of eighty yuan. Then he contacted Lu Jiang’s comrades to use a tractor to haul lots of red bricks, cent, sand, floorboards, and other materials.
Jin Ruochu had started designing their house and yard as soon as Guan Yu returned, ready to use anyti.
…The price of the hostead was overlooked, changed from two hundred to eighty.
