"Chaoyang, are you leaving now?"

"Yes, I want to go home as soon as possible and see my grandma."

Lou Xiao'e looked at Li Chaoyang's anxious expression.

I know that his grandmother must be a very important relative to him.

"Chaoyang, how about I let my dad drive you? It'll be faster and save some time."

"No, honey. This is already enough trouble for your parents. It wouldn't be right to have your dad take me too."

“I’ll take a tricycle by the roadside and I’ll be at the bus station in no time, so you don’t need to worry about me.”

"Oh, by the way, honey, tomorrow's Uncle's birthday, right? I'll take these grain coupons to him in a bit."

"You don't need to come back tomorrow. Let's leave together in a bit. I'll lock the door."

Lou Xiao'e also packed a few clothes for herself to change into, preparing to stay at her parents' home for a few days.

"Honey, you can stay at Mom's house. When I come back, I'll go to Mom's and pick you up."

"Okay, don't worry about me. Just be careful."

"You sit inside for a while. I'll go to Uncle Yi's house first and see if anyone is home."

Li Chaoyang, carrying 10 jin of grain coupons and two 5-jin grain coupons, arrived at the door of an old man's house.

I saw that an old man's door was open, and I could hear noises coming from inside; the old woman was home.

"Auntie's home!"

"Hey, Li Chaoyang, why aren't you at work today?"

"Auntie, I have something to take care of. I heard that Uncle Yi is having his birthday tomorrow, so I'm getting him some food coupons in advance. You can buy whatever you want to eat."

"Li Chaoyang, look at you, aren't you going to all this trouble? We're so old, what do we want to eat? We don't celebrate our birthdays."

"They say birthdays shorten one's lifespan, so take it back quickly. Keep it for you two, isn't Lou Xiao'e about to give birth?"

"Please accept this, Auntie. This is what Lou Xiao'e and I wanted to do. Xiao'e still has some time before she can give birth."

"Look at you two, you really have something important to do. I feel so embarrassed. Just take one, and take these two back."

"Please keep them, ma'am."

The old lady may have seemed sullen and unassuming on the surface, but she was secretly delighted.

He was so happy to receive the three grain coupons that he couldn't stop smiling as he thanked Li Chaoyang.

"Auntie, I'll be going now if there's nothing else."

"Li Chaoyang, then bring your wife over for lunch tomorrow."

"Okay, Auntie. You don't need to worry about us. We'll come over when we have time, and we won't if we don't. You all can eat as usual."

"This child is so good, always so busy!"

An old woman saw Li Chaoyang off as he left his home.

The eldest brother returned to his room.

Lou Xiao'e had already placed the two small packages on the coffee table.

"Honey, you've finished tidying up yours too."

"I'm done packing. This bag 030 is mine, and that bag is yours."

"Chaoyang, take more money home with you. Buy Grandma whatever she wants to eat."

"Don't worry, honey, I know, I'm on my best."

As Lou Xiao'e spoke, she took out a few banknotes from her pocket and handed them to Li Chaoyang.

"Chaoyang, take this. It's a small token of my appreciation for Grandma. Please buy her something she likes to eat for me."

"Honey, I have some money in my pocket. You can keep it. At Mom's house, you can buy whatever you want to eat."

"It's convenient to carry some money with you when I'm not around."

“My family has everything we need, so don’t worry. This is a token of my appreciation for Grandma, please accept it.”

Seeing Lou Xiao'e's sincerity, Li Chaoyang accepted the few banknotes his wife handed him.

"Thank you, wife. I'll take care of Grandma. Thank you."

"Alright, let's hurry up and go, otherwise it will get dark soon. Everyone in the compound will be coming back from get off work soon, and it won't look good if they see us leaving."

Li Chaoyang launched his own bicycle.

He carried Lou Xiao'e on his back, with two small bags on his back.

We arrived at my mother-in-law's house again.

Lou Xiao'e was left at her mother-in-law's house.

He then gave his mother-in-law a thorough explanation.

"Mom, I'm sorry to have troubled you these past few days."

"Li Chaoyang, don't bother with all this trouble, just go and see what's wrong with your grandma."

Li Chaoyang knew that in his mother-in-law's eyes, although he had a good reputation and prestige.

However, in terms of conditions, they are indeed not as good as my father-in-law's family.

My mother-in-law has a slight prejudice against me.

This can be revealed from their words.

Li Chaoyang did not push the bicycle.

Instead, they walked to the entrance of the alley and found a small tricycle.

I took a tricycle to the bus station.

I bought a long-distance bus ticket at the bus station.

I felt sleepy while sitting on the bus.

When I woke up, I had no idea how much time had passed.

"Wake up, everyone! Even though it's dark now, the next stop is the final stop. Pack your bags and get ready to get off the bus."

Li Chaoyang knew he was home and rubbed his eyes.

Look at the dark sky outside.

I looked at my watch; it was already past 11 p.m.

finally arrived at home.

The bus came to a complete stop.

Everyone started pushing and shoving their way down.

Li Chaoyang didn't want to squeeze in with them.

Then they waited for everyone to leave.

When Li Chaoyang stood up and took his luggage bag.

The handbag felt very light when I carried it.

When I took it off, I discovered that someone had slashed a hole in the side of my bag.

The clothes I brought with me are all gone.

"Hey, where are my clothes? All I have left is my bag?"

When Li Chaoyang looked around, he saw that the passengers had already gotten off the bus and left on their own.

Li Chaoyang's words immediately caught the driver's attention.

The driver got out of his seat.

He walked up to Li Chaoyang and looked at Li Chaoyang's bag.

"You let a pickpocket steal your things."

"Oh my god, there's nothing valuable in my bag, just a few changes of clothes. This thief might think I have something else in there!"

"What can we do? The person has already gotten off the bus and left. Even if you report it to the police, it will take a long time to find them."

"Alright, that's fine. It's nothing valuable anyway, and I can't afford to waste my time here."

"Comrade, you're right about that. Be careful next time you go out, and don't sleep too soundly in the car."

Li Chaoyang thought to himself: Fortunately, the money his wife gave him was in his pocket.

I was sleeping with my arms crossed.

Li Chaoyang got off at the bus station.
