"130,000?!"

Wang Daye's son's eyes lit up, and he secretly calculated in his mind, his gaze showing delight: "If it's 130,000, each family gets 39,000, and after relocation they can be allocated a 70-square-meter apartment. That's still quite a bargain, after all, this place has a good location, it's in the city center, close to Daming Lake, and life is very convenient."

"39,000 isn't a small amount either......."

After hearing Xu Wei's words, Aunt Da was first delighted, but thinking of her own situation, she became a little worried again.

"Being able to do this is already pretty good."

Da Yifu winked at her and gave her a gaze meaning 'don't be impatient': "You go home first, I'll chat with Brother Zheng again."

"Fine."

Husband and wife are of one heart; Aunt Da instantly understood his meaning.

Zhang Dafen's partner's change in attitude was somewhat astonishing. Da Yifu was naturally smooth and good at socializing; letting him stay to figure out the other party's true intentions would benefit both their family and Huang Daye's family.

"Ignore her, long hair but short wit, a woman's constant nagging is nothing but complaints......"

Seeing Aunt Da leave, Da Yifu immediately launched into chatter mode, using his three-inch tongue capable of telling Shandong fast-paced storytelling, he put his arms around Xu Wei's shoulders, calling each other brothers.

Xu Wei also intended to curry favor with him; the two mutually flattered each other, and they chatted very enthusiastically.

The strange scene left Wang Daye and his son staring dumbfounded.

The father and son had done business for years and dealt with all kinds of people, and they also noticed something was off about Xu Wei.

Both were shrewd characters, following the principle of 'say less, make fewer mistakes; say nothing, make no mistakes,' they lowered their heads and silently pretended to be invisible people.

Da Yifu, truly adept at handling all situations, soon made Xu Wei lower his guard and reveal the truth.

An Old Leader surnamed Gu?!

Could it be related to Xiyu's classmate?

That classmate of hers, seems to be called Guben.

That child's family background is actually so deep; his grandfather is a cadre, and Xiyu has been close with him—would it arouse suspicion?

Da Yifu instantly understood the stakes, sighed darkly, and couldn't help but feel a deep worry for his niece.

Wangfu Pool.

Wang Fan was bad at studying but an expert at showing off.

He rode a motorcycle around the alleys showing off stunts; the sharp engine roar drew many pedestrians' sideways glances.

The children were innocent and pure, attracted by the cool and flashy motorcycle, chasing and laughing happily behind him.

Wang Fan was extremely smug, circling Wangfu Pool again and again, until the appearance of someone made him restrain himself; he braked suddenly and stopped in front of that person.

The newcomer wore a military uniform, stood straight and tall, imposing and mighty. His handsome eyebrows and eyes, at first glance, resembled Guben somewhat.

"Eldest Brother, you're here?"

Guben saw the newcomer, his eyes also showing surprise and delight, and he smiled as he went to welcome him.

Fu Zheng was four years older than him, a fighter pilot, belonging to the Thirteenth Flight Brigade of the Jinan Military Region, stationed at the Western Suburb Military Airport.

The West Suburbs Airport was quite far from the Old City District; driving back and forth took over an hour.

Fu Zheng was busy with training and couldn't come several times in a year and a half. Today he happened to have business in the Old City District and took the opportunity to visit his Grandfather and Grandmother.

"Brother Zheng."

"When did you arrive?"

"Brother and the others miss you to death."

Wang Fan, Qu Peng, and Li Liang, upon seeing Fu Zheng, all had their eyes light up, and they smiled as they gathered around.

Fu Zheng was older than them; since childhood he had been the ringleader of the kids, and the three younger brothers all obeyed him.

Since elementary school, the three had followed behind him, trotting along, and together with Guben called him Eldest Brother.

"Just arrived."

Fu Zheng glanced at Wang Fan and teased jokingly: "Heard the motorcycle noise from far away, guessed it was you at once, came over to look, and sure enough, besides you brat, no one dares to disturb Grandfather's sleep during Grandfather's nap time."
