Chapter 933: Who Should Pay for This Matter of Discussing with the Eldest Brother's Family?

Gu Xiao Yu's school was on vacation, so she could ask for quite a long leave. This time she originally wanted to stay for two days and go back, because Li Long suddenly raised the matter of buying a house in Yanjing, plus wanting to take the children to turn around there, so she had to stay for a few more days.

However, she checked out of the guesthouse and moved into the large courtyard.

In her words, the space here was large, the popularity was prosperous, and Sister Yang's cooking was delicious, so why not live here?

Moreover, living here was also convenient, after all, her father came over every day, and her sister was also here.

In the afternoon, Gu Bo Yuan still didn't go to work, and Li Long still went to the acquisition station.

The next day, Gu Xiaoxia went to work, and Li Long drove the jeep to the Fourth Team.

Regarding the jeep parked in Li Long's courtyard, Gu Xiao Yu still asked.

Although there were many cars on the streets in Yanjing, Gu Xiao Yu still knew a thing or two about jeeps that obviously represented identity.

Gu Bo Yuan gave an explanation, naturally a true explanation.

"You mean, this was exchanged for a tiger skin?" Gu Xiao Yu was greatly surprised, "Are there tigers in the Northern Territory?"

Many people didn't know that there were tigers in the Northern Territory. Because the information spread, by the time everyone knew that there were once tigers in the Northern Territory, the tigers had basically gone extinct.

"Um, fewer than Siberian tigers, and the body shape is also smaller, so the skin is more precious here." Gu Bo Yuan said, "Of course, in name, this car still belongs to the Beiting Prefecture Supply and Marketing Cooperative, it's just assigned to your brother-in-law to use. Now, slowly, actually everyone understands, after all, it has been used for two or three years."

Gu Xiao Yu nodded, this news was a bit shocking, of course, it also deepened her understanding of Li Long.

Even if that tiger wasn't killed by him, being able to get the tiger skin was also a great ability.

Li Da Benshi (Li Great Ability)?

Thinking of this title, Gu Xiao Yu smiled.

Today she was responsible for helping Sister Yang take care of Mingming and Haohao, and Mingming and Haohao were also very curious about this new aunt who looked very much like their mother, so they got along quite happily, even making Gu Xiao Yu have a thought in the bottom of her heart, should she also get married and have a cute child?

Would she have twins then?

Blushes covered her cheeks, she was a bit shy, and then began to think, was there a suitable partner?

Li Long arrived at the Fourth Team and told his father, mother, and eldest brother and sister-in-law about Gu Xiao Yu's arrival.

Li Qing Xia and Du Chunfang didn't have too big a reaction, Li Jianguo and Liang Yuemei were full of emotion.

They and Gu Bo Yuan could be considered to have fought together. Li Jianguo knew Gu Bo Yuan before he got married, both were veteran village builders. And after marriage, Liang Yuemei occasionally took care of Gu Xiaoxia, not to say as her own daughter, at least she was regarded as a niece.

Now knowing the situation of Gu Bo Yuan's family, how could they not be full of emotion? Happy for the father and daughter to reunite, and sighing for Gu Bo Yuan's wife remarrying.

Of course, it was just such an emotion. Others' lives, they couldn't interfere, everyone had the power of their own choice. In the situation at that time, Gu Xiaoxia's mother's choice couldn't be said to be wrong.

So Li Long just talked about it simply, and then said his purpose.

"You said go to Yanjing for a trip? The whole family goes?" Li Jianguo was a bit surprised, "Is this appropriate?"

At this time, people in the Northern Territory countryside didn't have the habit of going out for tourism, or even this idea was unlikely to be produced.

After all, it had only been a few years since they had enough to eat, or even those who went out of the province were basically going to visit relatives in the mouth (inland).

The school would organize students to go out for "spring outings", basically just turning around in Wucheng.

So Li Long's suggestion, Li Qing Xia's old couple's first reaction was to refuse.

"Go there for what? Run so far to see what?"

"That is, what's good to see? Isn't it good to stay honestly at home?"

Li Jianguo was moved. That was going to Yanjing! There was Tiananmen there!

Their generation, including Li Qing Xia's generation, walked from the old society to the new society, watching the country change little by little to the present with their own eyes.

So they had the most complex, actually the most true feelings for Tiananmen.

Want to go see it?

Too want to go see it.

On the contrary, Liang Yuemei, although she also wanted to go, was unwilling to go.

"This whole mess at home, how can I walk away?" Liang Yuemei said, "It's already the twelfth lunar month, have to prepare things for the New Year, there are still many things!"

"You two stay, you go turn around." Du Chunfang rarely wanted to let the eldest daughter-in-law go out and turn around, she had already seen that the two sons definitely wanted to go out and turn around, since there was this idea, and this ability, then she supported it.

"Go out, very troublesome, right?" Li Qing Xia actually didn't hope for the two sons to go out, out of awe for places they hadn't been to, unknown areas, he was a bit worried.

"What's troublesome? Mingming and Haohao's aunt ran over herself, and ran twice. Our Northern Territory is not more desolate than that Yanjing, she a girl is not afraid, what are we afraid of? I also want to let Juan and Qiang go see Tiananmen, see Yanjing's university, so that they can be admitted there."

Li Long didn't directly say he wanted to go buy a house, he felt that at least his father and mother definitely wouldn't be willing, would feel that it was throwing money into the water.

People wouldn't go to live there, why buy a house there? They wouldn't even be willing to let Li Juan take the college entrance exam, thinking about taking a secondary specialized school or normal school and then working after graduating at eighteen, how good!

Li Long felt that nieces and nephews should have a more distant future, although it might take four more years of school, but if they were admitted, graduating in four years would be a national cadre, and if they were admitted well, not to mention being assigned to the ministry, even if assigned to the autonomous region, it would be better than in the county.

This was Li Long's idea. His plan was to stay in this small county for a lifetime, even if buying a house in Yanjing was paving the way for the younger generation.

But Li Juan and Li Qiang, Mingming and Haohao, including possible Hongqin and Li Xue Qin Xueping, all had the possibility of going out, walking towards a broader space.

Why did he earn so much money? His own happiness was one aspect, supporting the younger generation was another aspect.

Maybe some people would feel he was hypocritical, but Chinese people, especially the common people at the bottom, weren't they all like this?

There were those who emptied eight wallets to buy a house, and there were two generations who took out half of their retirement salary to actively let the younger generation gnaw on the old.

Although the sentence "rather than hoping for the son to become a dragon, it is better to strive to become the first generation of wealth" was a sentence of later generations, but from a long time ago, actually Chinese people were all striving like this. Striving to let the descendants have a better living environment, a better development foundation.

Li Long said so, and others didn't speak.

Yes, they lived well in the Northern Territory, better than in the mouth (inland), but these adults all knew clearly, even in some places in the mouth where living conditions were far inferior to here, mentioning the Northern Territory was a kind of high-above, the feeling of the Central Plains facing the savage. Almost all people in the mouth, looking at the Northwest, felt that this was a bitter cold place.

Gu Xiao Yu a girl dared to run over, what were they afraid of going to Yanjing?

Li Qing Xia and Du Chunfang didn't speak anymore, the attitude was very clear, if you want to go, go, it's not that you can't afford it. They went to the east room, leaving the matter of discussing to the two brothers.

Seeing that the eldest brother was already moved but still hesitating, Li Long decided to add fire.

Li Juan and Li Qiang who went out to play had already returned. They also heard from others that their little uncle's jeep had driven back, so they rushed back.

In these few years, Li Juan and Li Qiang could be said to have quite high prestige in the village children's group. On the one hand, because their studies were indeed good, they were "other people's children" in the eyes of adults, the second was that they had many toys, much pocket money, knew a lot, and were generous, so those children also obeyed them.

Of course, this little uncle Li Long was the one Li Juan and Li Qiang admired most, so as soon as Li Long returned, they rushed back.

"I was thinking about letting Juan and Qiang see the university there when I go to Yanjing, if they can be admitted, I plan to buy a house in Yanjing." Li Long originally didn't want to say it, fortunately now his father and mother were not there, his eldest brother and sister-in-law should be able to understand what he said:

"They were admitted, might live in school, but having a courtyard would be much more convenient. Of course, Mingming and Haohao I also want to let them strive to be admitted to Yanjing."

That was the center of the whole country, at least in this era, it was the place that many people yearned to take the college entrance exam—even if they couldn't be admitted, yearning for it was no problem.

Unlike later generations, universities blossomed everywhere, and there were many choices, or rather, they knew much more.

"What? We go to Yanjing?" Li Juan and Li Qiang were startled, "Really?" Immediately it was excitement, "Really go? See Tiananmen?"

"The premise is that you can get up, watching the flag raising has to get up at three or four o'clock." Li Long said jokingly, "Otherwise you can't see it."

"Then I won't sleep at night!" Li Juan said seriously.

"I won't sleep either!" Li Qiang followed closely, "I guarantee I can get up then!"

Li Long smiled, looking at Li Jianguo and Liang Yuemei.

"Don't have to be so urgent, right?" Liang Yuemei, although moved by Li Long saying that buying a house was for Li Juan and Li Qiang to go to school, and including Mingming and Haohao's possibility of taking the college entrance exam later, she wasn't sure if her two children could be admitted to Yanjing.

"Prepare first." Li Long smiled, "Buying a courtyard in Yanjing costs a few thousand yuan, it's just right that Mingming and Haohao's aunt can look after it there. If it weren't for no one, I also wanted to buy a house in Chang'an, Shanghai, so that no matter where they were admitted, there would be a place to stay locally."

Then he said to Li Juan and Li Qiang:

"If your father and mother let you go, let you see Yanjing's university. Strive to be admitted there in the future, set an example for Mingming and Haohao. If you are admitted there, strive to settle down there, when Mingming and Haohao are admitted later, you as sister and brother, have to take care of them."

Although this sounded like it was all for Mingming and Haohao, Li Jianguo and Liang Yuemei naturally understood the actual situation.

The two looked at each other, silently full of emotion again.

The things done before, really didn't go in vain, and came back dozens of times.

In the future, Li Juan and Li Qiang would have such an uncle, even if the two didn't strive for anything, the children's future would be infinitely bright.

"Definitely!" Li Juan still answered seriously, she hadn't recovered from the shock of going to Yanjing.

"Um, I will definitely take care of the two younger brothers!" Li Qiang promised by patting his chest, "I will swear to Tiananmen then!"

"Hahahaha..." The adults heard this and all laughed.

"Then if you really want to buy a house, why use your money, a few thousand yuan, I can also afford it." Li Jianguo was the eldest brother, he said: "Buying a house for Juan and Qiang, naturally I will buy it!"

"Then this is not urgent, talk about whether to go first." Li Long waved his hand.

"Go, why not go?" Liang Yuemei thought about Li Long's words about Li Juan and Li Qiang's future, and was a bit excited, "Go see, maybe they can really be admitted!"

Previously she didn't have confidence, but thinking about the changes in the family in these few years, could she have thought of it five years ago?

Then why couldn't she think more boldly?

"However, you go, I won't go. You eldest brother take Juan and Qiang, your family go together. I have to prepare at home, and the two old people also need care." Liang Yuemei said, "You go with peace of mind, don't worry about this side."

Li Jianguo wanted to persuade, but thinking about these things at home, if both of them left, it really wasn't necessarily possible.

After all, the old father and mother hadn't worried in these few years, if they really left the two of them, the family wouldn't scatter, but it would definitely cause some problems.

This matter was generally decided like this.

As for the specific time, it depended on Li Long going to Wucheng to buy tickets. Li Jianguo needed to open a certificate here, and Li Long also needed to go to the supply and marketing cooperative to open a certificate, these things all needed to be handled in these two days.

But after the tone of the matter was set, the rest was much easier to handle. They even began to discuss which places they wanted to see after going.

Li Long naturally didn't idle, learning from later generations to make a simple strategy.

"Winter actually has nothing fun," he said first, "Tiananmen watch the flag raising, so have to live closer. Then visit the university, these eldest brother you take the children, let Gu Xiao Yu take you. I'll go see the house, inquire about where is better..."

Li Long had been to Yanjing with the elderly group organized by the village in later generations, although not to say very familiar, at least some specific places were known.

Of course, he also wanted to do other things when he went there, could he expand his business there?

Even if not expanded, Yanjing, there were too many good things there, could he get some back?

Liang Yuemei went to cook, and Li Long and Li Jianguo were still discussing.

Finally determined, including the time on the road, a total of fifteen days—returning was about the twenty-fifth or twenty-sixth of the twelfth lunar month. That was staying in Yanjing for about a week—the road back and forth was at least six or seven days.

After discussing, Li Long went back after lunch, Liang Yuemei finished tidying up, looked at Li Juan and Li Qiang who were writing homework excitedly, and said to Li Jianguo in a low voice:

"Then... what about Anguo's two, and Juan's aunt's family? How to handle? Go or not?"

Li Jianguo also thought about this problem, but he finally said: "They don't have time, Little Long probably also thought about this matter. Their side... ignore it for now."

Li Jianguo's thinking was also slowly changing. (End of chapter) ===== CHAPTER 934 =====
