Traveling through time and space, wanting to lie down, but being forced to move forward

Chapter 779 Narration (2)

Not long after, Liu Jianjun walked out from the inner room.

He first walked up to Mr. Zou and handed him an envelope, "Grandpa Zou, this is the secret letter that Mr. Zhang asked me to give you.

It's said to be a ciphertext, or the same one you wrote to me before."

After taking it, Mr. Zou nodded and said, “I understand.

After you finish eating your noodles and tell me about your family's past, I will take a closer look."

Liu Jianjun handed another thick envelope to Liu Jingxue, "Xiaoxue, this is for you."

After Liu Jingxue received it, she did not open it immediately, but asked curiously, "Is this the letter Grandpa Zhang wrote to me? Why is it so thick?

His previous letters to me were not this thorough."

Liu Jianjun shook his head, "This is not the letter from Grandpa Zhang, this is something I prepared for you.

Mom said that my taste is poor and the things I bought are not to your liking.

I'm just being lazy and just give you the money and let you buy it yourself."

Liu Jingxue curiously reached into the envelope, but unexpectedly took out a thick stack of Great Unity notes from it.

She looked at Liu Jianjun in surprise and asked curiously, "Second brother, why are you giving me so much money?

You said this was something you prepared for me, and this is it.”

She pointed at the things Liu Jianjun had just bought for her and said, "Didn't you already buy something for me?

Last time we went to town, you bought me a lot of food."

"I'm not short of money, why are you giving me so much money?"

As Liu Jingxue said this, she stuffed the letter back into the envelope and returned it to Liu Jianjun.

How could Liu Jianjun take back something he had given away?

He quickly stopped Liu Jingxue from returning and insisted,

"Little sister, just take what your second brother gave you.

The things I bought for you are not worth much money.

I'm your second brother and I'm not short of money. Since I've given it to you, just take it with confidence.

Thank you for taking care of my parents for the past two years. You are responsible for their daily expenses.

This was originally my and my elder brother's responsibility, but now it has fallen on you, and we can't bear it."

"In my opinion, this little money doesn't mean anything. After all, if it weren't for you, my parents might have died.

Their lives are worth more than just this little money.

I will remember your kindness in my heart and will repay you slowly in the future."

Liu Jingxue frowned, "Second brother, that's not necessary.

My uncle and his family cannot afford to spend so much money on daily expenses.

Besides, they are my elders. It is my duty to take care of them. I don’t need you to pay for it.

I take care of them not for money.

What's more, my eldest brother and my aunt gave me a lot of money, enough for them to use for decades.

You don’t have to give any more.”

“What they give you is theirs, what I give you is mine, and the meaning is different.

Since you have accepted money from my parents and elder brother, you have to accept mine as well.

You have to treat everyone equally, and not be partial to one and treat the other the same."

Liu Jingxue frowned. Is this how favoritism is used?

Wang Xiulan was very happy to see that her son remembered her instructions, bought things for Liu Jingxue, and prepared money for her.

Seeing that Liu Jingxue refused to accept it, Wang Xiulan quickly joined in.

“Xiaoxue, your second brother gave it to you, so just take it with confidence.

Not to mention that you take care of us for the two brothers, as the older brothers, they get their monthly salary and give their younger sister pocket money, which is also their due.

As for saying that the money we give you is enough for us to use for decades, you are exaggerating.

In just these two years, we have used so much of your ginseng and eaten so many of your good things.

What’s more, your high-grade ginseng is a rare treasure that is hard to find even if you buy it.”

"Let's ignore all that and just talk about your second brother. The money you spent on saving his life and the medicine he used was worth more than this."

Liu Jingxue still refused to accept it, "We are all family, there is no need to calculate so clearly."

“Since you are a family, you can keep it with peace of mind.

We can’t just take and never give.”

Liu Jingxue always felt unworthy and refused to accept it, but she was no match for the family of three.

Liu Jingxue was so confused by their tactics that she accepted the money in a daze.

After reacting to the situation, Liu Jingxue sighed inwardly, "Forget it, I should give them more good things in the future.

This money is like them buying things from me."

Liu Jianjun ate very quickly. In less than a few minutes, he had finished a bowl of noodles and started talking about his trip.

When he was halfway through, Liu Jingxue couldn't help but ask, "Second brother, have the leaders told us about the arrangements for my uncle and aunt?

Did you say you want to redress their wrongdoings?"

Liu Jianjun shook his head. “They didn’t tell me about this.”

"It's better not to talk about this in front of you." Zou Lao said, "After all, you are your parents' child, how can they mention their demotion in front of you.

As for the matter of rehabilitation, it cannot be decided by just one word from the leaders.

We must send someone to investigate their affairs thoroughly before making a decision."

Wu Tou affirmed, "But I guess Wei Hua and his wife should have left a good impression on the chief, after all, they raised children like Jianjun and Xiaoxue.

He did not harbor any resentment towards Xia Guo because of his demotion, and was even thinking about asking Xiaoxue to hand over the medicine.

Even if I fail to redress my wrongdoing this time, I think I will never forget them in the future."

Liu Jingxue remembered that Mr. Zou had not yet read the secret letter that Grandpa Zhang had written to him, so she hurriedly urged him,

"It's not appropriate for the leaders to talk about rehabilitating my uncle and aunt in front of my second brother, so they should talk to Grandpa Zhang.

Grandpa Zou, please take a look at the secret letter Grandpa Zhang sent you to see if he mentioned this matter in the letter. "

Hearing this, Mr. Zou laughed and said, "You are too impatient, kid.

You should at least wait for your brother and finish telling him everything."

"Oh, Grandpa Zou, now that we know that the chief and his men have had someone try the medicine, they believe in its efficacy, so what happens next is not that important.

As for how they plan to arrange the medicines and who will take them, I don’t really care.

The most important thing now is to find out what kind of arrangements they have for you." Liu Jingxue said coquettishly.

“You must be curious too.

Besides, my second brother is still here. Once we find out what they have planned for you, we can continue listening."

Liu Jingxue said, ran over to shake Mr. Zou's arm, and said coquettishly, "Grandpa Zou, please read the letter quickly.

I just wanted to take this opportunity to let the leaders know that you have no bad intentions towards Xia Guo and to vindicate you.

Just satisfy my curiosity and let me know the result as soon as possible.

Otherwise, I wouldn’t have the heart to listen to my second brother, and I wouldn’t have the heart to do anything else.”

Mr. Zou was at his wit's end after being pestered by Liu Jingxue, so he could only say, "Okay, then I'll satisfy your curiosity and read the letter now."

After that, he said to Liu Weihua, "Weihua, bring me the book that I asked you to put in the secret cellar.

Your eyesight is better than mine, so help me translate this secret letter quickly."

Liu Weihua said "OK", got off the kang, put on his shoes, and went to get his things.
