Siheyuan: No One Can Be Left Behind

"Where did you get it? It's so beautiful." Mom exclaimed.

Li Dongfang was about to brag when he heard his mother say in a resentful tone, "You are very generous to your wife, but your mother doesn't have such a good thing."

"Uh~~!" Li Dongfang was speechless, and quickly said, "I have prepared yours separately, and it is guaranteed to be better than this."

As he spoke, he rummaged through his luggage for a long time and found another cloth bag, but it was much bigger than the previous one.

He opened it and handed it to his mother, saying, "Here, take a look and see if you like it."

My mother took it and looked at it. She immediately smiled and said, "You are indeed my good son. You are much better than your father."

As she spoke, she took out the gold bracelets, jade necklace, earrings, rings and even hairpins from the package one by one and looked at them again and again.

Li Dongfang secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he owned a jewelry store, otherwise he would have to suffer a huge loss today.

Watching my mother running three times with the jade bracelets and giving them to four daughters respectively, she had a few more crow's feet from smiling, which diluted the sadness of the impending separation a little.

During dinner, Li Dongfang gave the information on nuclear fission to Chief Engineer Qian and said goodbye.

Chief Engineer Qian and General Chen both tried their best to keep him, but Li Dongfang still declined politely.

Needless to say, Chief Engineer Qian came for the technology in Li Dongfang's mind, while General Chen came simply because Li Dongfang had enough Moutai.

That night, Li Dongfang's parents chatted with him until very late, and kept reminding him to take care of his health, eat well, work hard, and so on. In short, they reminded him about every aspect of life.

Li Dongfang also knew the feelings of the two elders. He did not feel impatient at all, only reluctant and touched.

Two days later, Li Dongfang and his group boarded the train back to Sijiu City.

The treatment this time was different from when he came here. A special train carriage was arranged for him this time, and Li Dongfang also enjoyed the treatment of a leader. This was jointly applied for for him by Chief Engineer Qian and General Chen.

The special train carriage is a special train carriage, it is simply a five-star luxury villa. The bedroom has a two-meter bed, there are two secondary bedrooms, a living room comparable to the main hall of a courtyard house, and a separate washroom, making Li Dongfang wish he could stay on the road for a few more days.

Moreover, there were many more security personnel this time, and no accidents occurred on the road.

However, the big bed in the master bedroom was a bit too heavy, as at most five people could lie on it.

In a blink of an eye, it has been more than half a month since Li Dongfang returned to Sijiu City. The fighter jet project has entered the final stage, and there is nothing that requires Li Dongfang to worry about.

Li Dongfang had a rare period of free time. Today he made an appointment with Ran Qiuye to have dinner at the courtyard. It had been almost a month since they last saw each other. He didn't know how Ran Qiuye was doing. He was still quite interested in her, but he must not let someone else get there first.

He asked Yan Bugui to help pass a message, but he ended up being targeted by him again. Seeing his eyes moving around, Li Dongfang knew that he was definitely going to plot again.

"Uncle, why are you wandering around here instead of going home to cook after get off work?" Li Dongfang sat up from the recliner, took a sip from the teacup and said.

"Hehe, it's okay, it's okay. I just caught a big grass carp yesterday, and was thinking of seeing if he could help me find someone to sell it. You know our family...right?" Yan Bugui said with a smile.

Li Dongfang also became interested when he heard this. Although he had fish in his space, they were all frozen and definitely not as delicious as fresh ones, so he asked, "Uncle, how big is your fish?"

Yan Bugui knew that Li Dongfang would definitely be interested, so he quickly gestured and introduced it, "It's this long, and it probably weighs about four or five kilograms."

When Li Dongfang heard this, he thought it was a great idea. Wouldn't it be delicious if he could make boiled fish or pickled fish?

"Oh, that's not small. Let's go and take a look." Li Dongfang stood up and pulled Yan Bugui to the front yard.

When I walked to the door of Yan Bugui's house, I saw a big fish floating in a large basin. Although the fish's mouth was still moving, it was estimated that it would not live long.

When Yan Bugui saw the fish lying sideways, he quickly said, "This basin is too small. How many days can we keep this fish?"

Li Dongfang didn't care what he said. After thinking it over, he missed the taste of boiled fish even more and asked, "Uncle, it seems that you can't keep this fish anymore. Why don't you sell it to me?"

When Yan Bugui heard this, his eyes lit up and he said, "Okay, we are all family, just give me five dollars and take it away."

"Five dollars? What five dollars?" Sha Zhu walked in at this time, stretched his head to look into the basin and said, "Wow! This fish is not old or small."

Yan Bugui must have smiled so much that his eyes narrowed, and said to Li Dongfang: "Dongfang, you see, Zhuzi has said so, you will definitely not suffer any loss."

Before Li Dongfang could say anything, Sha Zhu reached out to stop Yan Bugui and said, "Wait a minute, Uncle San, you just said five dollars, do you mean this fish costs five dollars?"

When Yan Bugui heard Sha Zhu's tone was wrong, he quickly winked at Sha Zhu and said, "Yes, five dollars is more than appropriate for such a big fish."

How could Sha Zhu, who was related to Li Dongfang, speak in favor of Yan Bugui? He immediately curled his lips and said, "Uncle San, you are really not being honest. Although Dongfang is rich, you shouldn't be so deceiving. This fish is only two yuan, at most two yuan and a half, and you asked for five yuan. Isn't that too much?"

Li Dongfang had only bought vegetables a few times, and he was not clear about the prices. He also did not know that the disaster had eased recently and the prices of food and other things had dropped. However, he still trusted Sha Zhu very much and said, "Third Uncle, you are wrong. Do you think I don't understand the market?"

"How could that be? Is your uncle that kind of person? I saw someone selling fish for 80 cents a pound yesterday. I have more than five pounds, almost six pounds. I can also help you kill the fish and clean it, and give you some coriander. Five dollars should be enough, right?" Yan Bugui counted on his fingers.

When Sha Zhu heard this, he sneered and said, "Uncle San, you are really calculating. This morning, I saw someone selling grass carp for 45 cents a pound. And your fish weighs less than 5 pounds, so how can it weigh almost 6 pounds? If you really want to sell it, we'll take it for 2 yuan."

"No, no." Yan Bugui shook his head like a rattle and said, "At least four pieces. If it's less, I'll keep it for myself."

When Sha Zhu heard this, he pulled Li Dongfang away and turned around and said, "Then you can keep it for yourself. Thank you."

"Hey, don't go, let's..." Yan Bugui saw that the fish could not be sold, and shouted to the two people anxiously.

Sha Zhu turned around and said, "Come on, you said the price, why don't we buy some pork and mutton, which are more delicious than fish?" After saying that, he continued to walk towards the central courtyard.
