Chapter 229 Liu Junhui and Li Yonggang gave the old couple 2 yuan
"How about five hundred?" Liu Junhui answered cautiously. There wasn't much money at home.
“I think I should give them a thousand. They’ve come a long way and I don’t know when we’ll meet again!
It’s really not easy for them to raise you to this age!
In the future, when we have money, we will give them some money every Chinese New Year.
I heard that our soldiers are going to get a pay raise soon.”
Li Yonggang said this without hesitation, his tone firm but gentle.
After hearing this, Liu Junhui felt a warm feeling in her heart and her eyes became moist.
She knew that this was not just money, but also Yonggang's love and consideration for her.
Although Liu Changsheng and Bai Fenglian are not related to her by blood, Yonggang's magnanimity and consideration for her make her feel extremely happy.
"Yonggang, thank you!" Liu Junhui said sincerely with gratitude.
"Look at what you said. They are your parents, which means they are also my family!"
Liu Junhui patted Li Yonggang's chest gently and smiled tenderly.
Then, Liu Junhui went to where the money was kept, counted out a thousand yuan, and handed it to Yonggang, "You give them this money!"
"Junhui, I think you should give it to her. This will show your filial piety as a daughter."
Liu Junhui was moved and smiled again.
She and Yonggang returned to the table together.
Liu Junhui held the money in his hand and looked at Liu Changsheng and Bai Fenglian, "Dad, Mom, due to policy regulations and our conditions, you didn't achieve the purpose of coming here. I'm sorry to disappoint you.
But we all understand you, you want to live a better life.
Due to our current capabilities, we cannot do more for you. This thousand yuan is what we have saved up bit by bit.
Take it and use it to improve your life when you return home."
Liu Junhui specifically stated that the one thousand yuan was saved bit by bit in order to prevent Bai Fenglian from having two.
Neither Liu Changsheng nor Bai Fenglian expected that their daughter and son-in-law would give them one thousand yuan.
During these three days, their daughter had given them the impression of being too cold and too harsh.
The couple, especially Liu Changsheng, looked very touched.
Liu Changsheng said, "Junhui, I've also seen that your family is not having an easy time, relying on Yonggang alone to earn money to support the whole family.
You have to make a living too, so why don’t we take half and keep the other half for yourselves?”
Before Liu Junhui could say anything, Bai Fenglian spoke up, "Hey, Junhui, Yonggang, it's rare to see you being so filial!
We will accept this thousand yuan. Our lives in the next step may depend on this thousand yuan.
Thank you, young couple!"
As she said that, Bai Fenglian took the money.
As she put the money into her pocket, she glared at Liu Changsheng and said, "You old fool, next we'll be homeless men and women. This thousand yuan is life-saving money!"
Zhou Huaying, who was sitting on the side, smiled and didn't say anything.
To be honest, she felt bad that her son and daughter-in-law gave them a thousand yuan, but their actions reflected their excellent qualities.
With such a son and daughter-in-law, I will definitely live a happy life for the rest of my life.
The atmosphere at the dinner table was even better afterwards.
Before we knew it, the family dinner ended in laughter and joy.
Li Yonggang is on duty tonight and will return to the army after dinner.
Before leaving, he took out two train tickets and said, "Father-in-law, mother-in-law, these are the train tickets I bought for you to go back home. You'll be boarding the train at 9:30 tomorrow morning."
This was the second time Li Yonggang called his father-in-law and mother-in-law tonight.
Li Yonggang, Liu Junhui, and Zhou Huaying all thought that Bai Fenglian and Liu Changsheng would burst into tears of gratitude and thank Yonggang repeatedly when they saw that he had bought them train tickets back home.
However, Bai Fenglian's next words stunned them all.
"Oh, Yonggang, you really bought a train ticket!
This is also my fault!
This morning, the chief said he was going to buy us train tickets, but I thought he was just talking!
Yonggang, two train tickets cost a lot of money. If you still have time, hurry up and refund them!
We have agreed that we will not return to our hometown for now. We have a distant relative in Wanghai City, and we plan to stay there for a few days, and then decide whether to return to our hometown based on the situation."
In the morning, Bai Fenglian heard the senior leader say that Yonggang was buying a train ticket, and she started thinking about staying at a relative's house for a few days.
This statement is actually very far-fetched. It is thousands of miles from Lijiazhuang to Wanghai City, so how could there be distant relatives there?
Zhou Huaying, in particular, had lived in the same village as Bai Fenglian for decades and had never heard that the Liu family had any relatives in the south.
After hearing this, the talented young woman immediately searched the original owner's memory to find out if the Liu family had any relatives in the South, but the result was zero.
However, the talented young woman was a time traveler. She knew that after China's reform and opening up, there soon appeared a phenomenon of smart people from the north going to the south to do business.
However, she thought it was extremely unlikely that Bai Fenglian's relatives would come to the South to do business.
It was obvious that Bai Fenglian and Liu Changsheng had some plan.
Never mind. They are not my biological parents anyway. Let them be. As long as they don’t cause trouble in my family, that’s enough.
"Okay," Li Yong just came to his senses and looked at Bai Fenglian, "Then I'll refund the ticket. I'll bring a car over tomorrow and take you to your relatives' house."
Li Yonggang said this because, firstly, he really wanted to send it off, and secondly, he wanted to see what relatives the Liu family had in the south.
Bai Fenglian immediately waved her hand, "No, no! Yonggang, you're too busy in the army, just let Junhui take us to the bus stop alone."
Li Yonggang understood that Bai Fenglian was afraid of being exposed.
"Okay, then I'll go back to my duty at the army. Father-in-law, mother-in-law, I wish you a safe journey!"
This is the third time Li Yonggang has called his father-in-law and mother-in-law.
In fact, he did it mostly for Junhui's sake, and he didn't know that Junhui was a time traveler.
"Hey! Thank you Yonggang!"
Li Yonggang went out and went downstairs.
It was already past nine o'clock in the evening.
Zhou Huaying looked at them and said, "You all go to bed. I'll clean up and then go to sleep."
Everyone go to bed, including Liu Junhui. Xiang Junlan has already gone to bed.
Bai Fenglian smiled and said, "Then Changsheng and I will go to sleep first. We have to travel early tomorrow morning. Thank you for your hard work, my dear."
Having to hurry on the road early in the morning meant that Fenglian was eager to leave here. There was really no point in staying here any longer.
Before going to bed, Liu Junhui went to the bathroom to wash up and go to the bathroom. When she came out, she found that her mother-in-law was still busy in the kitchen.
When I walked to the kitchen door, I saw that my mother-in-law was making dry food, which was obviously for Liu Changsheng and Bai Fenglian who were leaving the next morning.
Liu Junhui felt something in her heart and thought that her mother-in-law was right to do so.
So she didn't go to sleep yet, went into the kitchen, closed the kitchen door, and started working with her mother-in-law.
