CHAPTER 625: 625 CONFIRMED

Zhao Xiaoli’s tears immediately started flowing. Right now, her greatest worry is about her brother, Xiao Qiang.

Now that the only uncertainty in her heart has disappeared, even if Old Yang really abandons her in the future, she won’t resent him.

"Thank you."

"Why are you crying so early in the morning? Have your brother come over to live with you, then you won’t worry."

"Is he coming over with Uncle Lv? Has it been confirmed?" Zhao Xiaoli is afraid that her dream will shatter, so she needs to confirm it again.

"I notified Lv Beiguang some time ago, and everything is arranged on that side too. But if you’re still worried, I’ll call again later."

"Okay, make sure it’s confirmed. Please, let there be no mistakes."

Guodong and Jing Chu are both happy for Zhao Xiaoli upon hearing that Xiao Qiang is coming over. Having the siblings live together, no matter how tough life gets, gives a sense of security.

After breakfast, Old Yang drove away, while the three of them took their farming tools to work.

"Sister Xiaoli, Aunt Wang brought me some vegetable seeds today. When we get back, we can plant our own vegetables."

Zhao Xiaoli slapped her forehead, "Forgot it in the excitement just now. I was thinking last night about asking Old Yang to bring back vegetable seeds."

"No worries, it’s just the four of us eating. If not, we can buy from the village."

Everyone understood Zhao Xiaoli, knowing how excited she is about the arrival of her only sibling, and their relationship is especially close.

At the work site, they waited for the Captain to assign tasks.

The three stood beside a group of educated youths, but not even a glance was exchanged.

Lv Jingchu, being proud, immediately held up her chin arrogantly upon seeing this.

Most of the villagers noticed the discord among the educated youths but didn’t pay it any mind, as it’s their own business. The educated ones often look down on the locals, so no one’s eager to warm cold shoulders.

Old Yang drove directly back to the city and called Lv Beiguang.

"Mr. Lv, how’s Zhao Xiaoqiang’s situation?"

"Mr. Yang, everything is arranged here. We’re leaving the day after tomorrow by train."

"Great, travel safely."

"No worries, though I’m bringing quite a lot."

"Alright, I’ll arrange someone to pick you up."

After hanging up, Lv Beiguang was puzzled. This Mr. Yang is really enthusiastic and surprisingly capable to have Xiao Qiang come over.

Naturally, living with his sister is far better than living under someone else’s roof.

Just as he was about to leave, the phone rang again, and before he could introduce himself, the person on the other end started speaking.

"Lv Beiguang, we’ve packed everything we’re bringing to Jiang Xinyu. We’ll send it straight to the station the day after tomorrow. Liu Yuwei already arranged with Station Chief Zhang, so the items will be placed by the driver’s cabin." She Xiaoyun started speaking rapidly.

"Alright, I’ll visit the textile factory around noon, as some people there have prepared many things too."

"No problem, no matter how many things there are, though it might be a bit troublesome on that side."

"It’s okay, I just got off the phone with them, they’ll send someone to pick it up."

"Then I’ll prepare more for Jiang Xinyu." She Xiaoyun didn’t wait for Lv Beiguang’s reply and started preparing.

Previously, many items weren’t packed due to inconvenience, but now, she’ll just bring everything she’s prepared.

Lv Beiguang shook his head with a smile. He sincerely envies Jiang Xinyu’s popularity.

There won’t be any shortage of items prepared from the textile factory either. Since the train has been arranged, he can bring more for the kids too.

"Lv Beiguang, I’ve prepared some rice for Vice Factory Director Jiang, please take it along," Sun Baosheng said with a grin.

"Sure, bring it to me tomorrow. I have to visit the textile factory at noon, where many things have been prepared for Jiang Xinyu."

After hanging up, Old Yang loaded his truck with a radio and went to the grain station, where he bought a hundred pounds of rice, a hundred pounds of flour, a hundred pounds of corn grits, a hundred pounds of cornmeal, a hundred pounds of sorghum, and fifty pounds of sweet potato flour. The store was adamant about not selling more noodles, so he only bought twenty pounds.

At the supply store, he bought ten pounds of eggs, packed carefully in dried grass.

Then, all kinds of spices, supplies, and even two rolls of toilet paper.

He then headed to the building to buy brown sugar, white sugar, and study supplies, finally driving away.

As mealtime approached, he decided to eat at Xiao Wei’s house. The food there is pretty good.

When he arrived at the Wei Family home, everyone had already finished eating and was resting.

Wei Kaiyun came out to greet him, "Quick, bring the grain down."

"Did you go back to the city?"

"Yes."

"You sure bought a lot."

"They’re going to eat over there too."

Wei Kaiyun understands his old friend; while he’s loyal, he’s not overly enthusiastic.

"What’s going on?"

"Zhao Xiaoli is going to be my wife."

Wei Kaiyun immediately smiled, "Congratulations." His old friend is finally going to have a family.

The two of them went back and forth several times, moving lots of things, with the Wei Family taking half of what Old Yang bought.

Meanwhile, Sister-in-law Liu started cooking. For lunch, their family had steamed buns, but with Old Yang coming over, Jiang Xinyu decided to make dumplings. Even a single meal can be special.

With wild vegetables and salted meat, oily and delicious.

After lunch, Wei Kaiyun and Old Yang chatted, "Lv Beiguang will be coming by train the day after tomorrow. I checked the timing; he will arrive on July 5th, and I’ll drive there to pick him up. I guess he’ll be bringing a lot of stuff for your wife."

"Hmm, should I drive a tractor over? Besides, I know Lv Beiguang."

"Alright, then I’ll wait at your house, and you won’t need to send them anywhere."

"Who else is coming?"

"I found someone to bring Zhao Xiaoli’s brother, Zhao Xiaoqiang over. He’s just a little over ten years old, it’s hard to feel secure with him alone out there."

"Alright, how did you two get together?"

"The girl said she admires me," Old Yang replied with a smile.

"But you have some feelings for her, don’t you?"

"She’s decent, with a bit of spirit but honest and good-looking. I have thoughts of starting a family, so we got together."

"Bless you," Wei Kaiyun said earnestly and sincerely. They’ve both walked a road full of danger and hardship, and with a happy family of his own, he naturally hopes the same for his friend.

"I’ll strive to live a good life, but if anything happens, I’ll leave her in your care."

"Rest assured, it’s mutual between us. When do you plan to hold the banquet?"

"After her brother arrives."
