At nine o'clock in the evening, Long Jianhua returned to the outside of the courtyard. He pushed open the door and moved four small wooden boxes into the door with the driver, asking the driver to go back. After tying the door, he hugged the four wooden boxes together and came to the inner courtyard to shout that Yuehua would open the door.

The first one to rush out was Yue He. She opened the door and shouted, "Brother, you look very handsome on TV... Wow, what are you holding? I'll help you."

I ran out and took one of the layers above as soon as I came up...the lightest one.

Long Jianhua joked, "You are so lucky, take away the lightest one."

She giggled, "No matter how light or heavy it is, it's just helping."

He responded, "Actually, I just wanted you to open the door, and didn't ask you to help you get it. You are too active."

My mother poked her head out and saw him holding three boxes. She asked in confusion, "What did you buy again?"

He responded, “It’s those carvings.”

My mother reached out to pick up one, "Your uncle is here, I left half an hour ago."

Long Jianhua put down the box, "Is there something wrong, or come and have a walk?"

Grandma smiled, "He just came here to check and chat. He came by the bus. He asked Yuehua to drive him back, and your grandfather went with him."

Long Jianhua smiled.

It was in this era that the deputy minister took the bus to visit relatives and friends.

Seeing Yuehe going to the next room to start doing homework, he stood behind her for a while, and then moved the boxes to his room.

When grandpa and Yuehua returned home, Yuehe had just finished her homework, and Yuehua called her to go home.

Long Jianhua turned his head and looked at her, "Anyway, uncle and aunt are not at home, so you will sleep here. I will send you to school tomorrow."

Yuehe immediately applauded, "I agree!"

Yuehua smiled and said, "I have a brother who sent you to school, of course you agree."

Long Jianhua smiled and said, "It seems that Yuehe really wants me to drive you to school."

Yuehe giggled, "Actually, it's okay to walk with me. Let my classmates see, I have such a handsome and handsome brother."

Long Jianhua rubbed her head.

At this time, the child had different ideas.

After sending them to school the next day, he returned to the courtyard and brought out all the carvings he took back yesterday and asked his grandparents and mother to appreciate them.

Seeing three large carvings, the three of them praised them, especially grandma, "These can be regarded as heirlooms."

Grandpa said slowly, "Shajuan has so many raw stones that can become heirlooms. Heirlooms are worthless... Jianhua, we brought two Yubaicai over here. How do you want to give them?"

"You must give one cabbage, and then choose one of these three pieces. Just two pieces."

My mother laughed, "You have huddled the Liu family cabbage, and it is appropriate to have another one in the past."

Long Jianhua smiled foolishly after hearing this.

Grandma looked at her in confusion and smiled, muttering, "I don't know what's funny about giving her a cabbage. Jianhua, your mother is crazy about being happy. Don't worry about her."

My mother's laughter became louder, and grandma started to laugh as well.

Grandpa opened small boxes, "Are these things you are going to give away this time?"

Long Jianhua scratched his head, "Things are good things. Now everyone doesn't wear them, so I don't know if they are suitable."

Grandpa said lightly, "At your level, giving gifts is very difficult. If you want money, you can get a car and a house. But the key is that the times are limited here, especially their family, which cannot be publicized, and it will have a bad impact on their family."

Long Jianhua agrees with his point of view.

After pausing for a while, my grandfather said lightly, "I want to see if you add these three pieces to a jade cabbage, the money will be 100,000 US dollars per family, and 200,000 yuan each. I think you have prepared the quilt cover and fabric, which is good. This method is not only low-key, but also the weight is in line with your identity, but also combines tradition and modernity."

Grandma and mom were almost smiling, and agreed with grandpa.

So, the engagement gift was settled...

Two days later, the Beijing office delivered the goods here twice, and he immediately sent part of them to Liu Zhifei's house.

On the afternoon of the 31st, he marinated some vegetables and prepared some preparations at her house. When Liu Zhifei wanted to go to Shichahai with him in the evening, she was caught by her future mother-in-law. Long Jianhua could only return with hatred in her "resentful" eyes.

The next day, on January 1, 1984, Long Jianhua got up at six o'clock as usual and started exercising in the yard. Before an hour, he heard Yuehe knocking on the door outside, shouting, "Brother, open the door!"

Seeing him wearing sportswear with white mist all over his body, standing at the door and looking out, she giggled, "Don't look. My sister is exercising at home, my mother is making breakfast, and I ran over alone."

After talking, she saw grandma busy in the kitchen, she immediately shouted, "Grandma, add another bowl of water, I want to drink porridge."

Grandma smiled and said, "We each save a bite, and a bowl of porridge will save. Do you need to add more water? It's a coincidence that your elder sister brought some shrimp dumplings yesterday, which is enough for you, a greedy cat."

Yuehe immediately ran into the house, "I will call my sister and ask her to come and eat too. Brother, I will exercise with you later."

Looking at Yue He who was speaking quickly and running in quickly, Long Jianhua shook his head, but felt very warm.

A family requires a steady adult and innocent children. This is the true joy of family.

At eight o'clock, the family had just served porridge and prepared for breakfast. Liu Zhifei walked in with a smile and greeted the elders. The family hurriedly greeted her for a seat.

Grandma asked, "Feifei, have you eaten?"

My mother pulled her to sit next to Long Jianhua, "You have to eat a little bit after eating. Young people can eat another bowl after crossing the threshold."

Dad said slowly, "Even if you didn't eat it, you would be embarrassed to eat it after you said this."

My mother laughed and said, "That's it. Jianhua, why are you standing there? Go get the dishes and chopsticks."

Liu Zhifei smiled and looked at him, and quickly said, "I went out after eating."

Yunyan smiled and said, "The shrimp dumplings I brought back yesterday. If you don't eat them, it will take a while to eat them."

Yuehe giggled, "Sister-in-law and brother just use a set of bowls and chopsticks."

Grandma smiled and scolded, "You kid."

Unexpectedly, Liu Zhifei nodded, "I can just eat two shrimp dumplings with Brother Hua's chopsticks."

A foodie doesn't care about that many.

Long Jianhua finally brought her a bowl and chopsticks, and then everyone sat down to eat.

The reason why she came here was because her aunt, uncle and uncle had already arrived and said she wanted to help him, but was stopped by her mother and old lady. She was a little anxious.

Grandma asked with concern, "Jianhua, is that okay? Don't have no food until two o'clock in the afternoon, then you'll make a fool of yourself."
