Pastoral Daily Life - Chapter 169
[Chapter 169 The Closing (2)]
After Lu Lingxi and Yan Yue returned to Fengcheng, life was still the same as before. The two spend most of their time in micro-gardening and visit the garden every few days.
Taking advantage of Fengcheng’s current hukou policy, Yan Yue successfully moved his hukou and settled in a house in the community. Lu Lingxi also moved his hukou from his home and fell together with Yanyue. On the day he got the new account book, Yan Yue looked through the contents with satisfaction. The head of the household is filled with his name, followed by Lu Lingxi.
“Xiaoxi, we are a family now.”
As soon as he got into the car, Yan Yue couldn’t help holding Lu Lingxi in his arms, looked at him with a smile, and bowed his head to kiss Lu Lingxi eagerly.
Lu Lingxi was a little embarrassed. There were many people outside the household registration room. He didn’t know whether to push Yan Yue away. In fact, he was also happy in his heart. Seeing his and Yan Yue’s names side by side in the same household registration book, the feeling of happiness is indescribable.
Yan Yue couldn’t help kissing Lu Lingxi, greedily swallowing his breath. Finally, his sanity was still there, and when someone approached outside the car, he let go of Lu Lingxi reluctantly. He gently tidied up the broken hair on Lu Lingxi’s forehead, and discussed, “Should we invite A Kang and the others for a meal at noon, as a celebration.”
“Celebrate?” It’s red.
Yan Yue couldn’t help but feel soft-hearted when he looked at him, so he leaned over and grabbed Lu Lingxi and kissed him several times. “It’s settled like this. I’ll call A Kang and Fang Lei.”
Lu Lingxi nodded with a blushing face, thought about it, and said, “Call Yi Hang and the others too.”
“Okay.
” The place for people to eat was set at the new restaurant of the small restaurant. Lu Lingxi called Yi Hang first and asked him to leave a box. Not long ago, the new store of the small restaurant opened. Although the area is several times that of the first store, it is still full of customers. With the increase of tourists in Fengcheng, the reputation of the small restaurant has spread to Fengcheng. There are guests who come from afar and wait for half a day just to have a meal in a small restaurant.
After receiving Lu Lingxi’s call, Yi Hang readily agreed. Especially the reason why Lu Lingxi invited him to dinner made him laugh uncontrollably. Speaking of which, Yi Hang never thought that Lu Lingxi would like a man, even though Yan Yue and Lu Lingxi went in and out together at first, he didn’t doubt that. It was Lu Lingxi who took the initiative to confess to him, and Yi Hang suddenly realized that every time he got close to Lu Lingxi, Yan Yue had an unhappy expression on his face.
After deciding where to eat, Yan Yue notified An Jie one by one. When I heard that he and Lu Lingxi were going to have dinner, everyone was very enthusiastic. Even the busiest Fang Lei promised to be there on time and would never delay everyone’s meal.
Yan Yue hung up the phone with a smile, looked at Lu Lingxi, “Let’s go first.”
Lu Lingxi nodded obediently.
When the two arrived, the nearest Su Lang had already arrived. He was alone in the box holding his cell phone and didn’t know what to watch. Hearing the sound of the box door opening, Su Lang closed his phone and looked over with a smile, “Why is it so slow?”
“The streets are full of people, and the traffic jams are terrible.” Yan Yue explained.
Su Lang laughed, “I always ride a bicycle when I go out, which is much faster than driving.”
Yan Yue’s heart moved, and he felt that the idea of riding a bicycle was a good idea. Xiaoxi could sit in front and hold Xiaoxi in his arms at all times. He was thinking about whether to buy a bicycle later, and Su Lang had already talked about the business, “By the way, I’m going to NT’s headquarters next week to apply for a foreign patent for Rubescens.”
Some time ago, Su Lang has applied for the domestic patent of Rubescens in the name of Micro Horticultural Technology Company, and is now preparing for official production. The ambition of their research team is very big, and they will also apply for foreign patents.
Naturally, Yan Yue would not object to this. Lu Lingxi listened and asked, “How is Xiaobao now?”
Su Lang smiled with gentle eyes, “Xiaobao has almost recovered, and can live like an ordinary person in the future.”
“That’s good.” surprise.
When Su Lang saw Lu Lingxi’s smile, a strangeness flashed in his eyes, but he disappeared without a trace. Fang Lei and Ye Kang arrived one after another, and they all got together to make a joke. Su Lang watched Yan Yue and Lu Lingxi clasped their fingers across the table, picked up the phone and deleted a few photos above. The background of the photo is the primary school in Jing’an District, Central Beijing. Lu Lingxi pulled Yan Yue to stand at the entrance of the primary school and was talking to the old man who was the gatekeeper. Su Lang didn’t tell anyone, he happened to go to Zhongjing a few days ago. Out of some kind of thought that is hard to explain, he deliberately took an afternoon to go to the primary school in Jing’an District, but he never expected to meet Lu Lingxi and Yan Yue at the entrance of the primary school.
At that moment, Su Lang thought a lot. He vaguely felt familiarity in Lu Lingxi, his inexplicable closeness to Lu Lingxi, and Lu Lingxi’s unusual attention to Lingcao… Many questions were entangled in his heart, and the answer was about to come out, Su Lang didn’t dare to think about it any longer.
He left the primary school in a hurry, left Zhongjing and returned to Fengcheng. He sometimes wonders if he is dreaming, but the photos on his phone remind him of the reality of his memory. Su Lang didn’t contact Yan Yue for several days, he didn’t know if he should ask his questions. Until today, when Yan Yue called, Su Lang suddenly felt relieved when he saw Lu Lingxi’s smile. It doesn’t matter if the answer is what he thinks in his heart, Lu Lingxi is very happy, that’s enough.
Time flies, and soon it will be the end of August. Among the various news in Fengcheng, the local people are most concerned about the demolition and reconstruction of Nancheng. The news about several major consortiums in China and Beijing competing for the Nancheng project came to the fore, and Yejia and Hepu became the most likely winners. The two were tit for tat everywhere, and they fought all the way from Zhongjing to Fengcheng.
At the beginning of September, the Fengcheng government officially started the bidding for the Nancheng demolition and reconstruction project. Yan Shihui brought Yan Hai to Fengcheng in person. Mr. Ye from the Ye family also appeared at the bidding meeting. He nodded at Yan Shihui from a distance, as if he was bound to win.
“Dad?” Yan Hai called out nervously.
Yan Shihui waved his hand, “This kind of bidding will be very fair, whoever pays more will go. Even if the Ye family secretly does some tricks and our money is in place, Ye Cheng can’t put us down.” He was full of confidence, for this The project not only transferred all of Hope’s liquid funds, but also pledged a large amount of money as a mortgage on all his shares in Hope, which is even bigger than the former and the latter. He knows that several competitors are strong, but he has to win this project.
Bidding will start soon.
Hepu, Ye Family, Li Family…a dozen large and small consortiums tried to win the project, and the quotations for the entire project soared. As the amount became larger and larger, one after another consortiums withdrew from the competition, and in the end, only Hepu and the Ye family were left to contend.
Ye Kang was a little nervous. He had lived in the Ye family since he was a child and had seen many such scenes, but this time the situation was special. He always kept Yan Yue’s reminder in mind, for fear that the Ye family would accidentally fall into it.
“Three billion.” Old Master Ye raised his cards for the last time calmly.
Ye Kang’s heart was beating wildly, and he immediately looked in Yan Shihui’s direction. From his point of view, Yan Shihui’s face is a little bad, although everyone knows that this land is valuable, and it will be able to earn it back in the future if it works well. But you must know that 3 billion is not the entire investment of this project, just the money for a piece of land in Nancheng. In the later stage, compensation for demolition and relocation is involved, which is an unpredictable bottomless pit. To be honest, according to the strength of the Ye family, it is already a bit reluctant. Ye Kang knows Hepu’s financial situation, I am afraid it will be even more reluctant.
Just when Ye Kang was paying attention to Yan Shihui, the eyes of the audience basically fell on Yan Shihui. Yan Shihui took a deep breath. Now that the project has been competed, the amount has far exceeded his expectations. The funds in his hand are not enough for this bid. Yan Shihui glanced at the old man Ye, who still looked like he was winning. He didn’t know if Mr. Ye had any inside information, such as the rumor of “moving the capital” secretly circulating in Zhongjing. After hesitating for a few seconds, Yan Shihui decisively raised his card and quoted a higher amount than the Ye family.
The audience’s attention shifted to Old Master Ye’s head again. There was a hint of cunning in the old man’s eyes, and he made a gesture of giving up. Not surprisingly, Hope took the land. Yan Shihui nodded smugly at the old man Ye, and the old man pulled Ye Kang and left the venue without saying a word. Falling in the eyes of the people around you is more like leaving in a fit of anger after losing the competition.
Outside the venue, Mr. Ye got into the car slowly, and looked at Ye Kang with squinted eyes, “I helped Boyue Yue so much, how can he thank me?”
Ye Kang felt that he was about to be scared to death by the old man. Some helplessly said, “What does Grandpa want?” Old
Ye Ye felt a little regretful, he had always been optimistic about Yan Yue. “It’s a pity that the younger boy doesn’t like girls. Your little cousin has just graduated, so she is a good match for the younger boy.” Having said that, Mr. Ye suddenly gave Ye Kang a suspicious look, “Akang, you have been hiding and refusing to go on a blind date, no Maybe you like boys too? Who do you like? Ah Yue? Or the assistant next to Ah Yue? No, do you like that policeman?”
“…” Ye Kang turned his head with a twisted expression, that’s why he Hiding and refusing to go home. The old man was thinking about catching him on a blind date all the time. Once he objected, I don’t know what the old man would think of.
Ye Kang almost rolled out of the car in embarrassment, and hurriedly told the old man that he was looking for Yan Yue. The old man sighed, “Actually, A Kang and Yue Xiaozi are also a good match, but it’s a pity that he was taken first.”
The driver who has been silently serving as the background: “…”
After the bidding, the development of Nancheng was quickly put on the agenda. Yan Shihui gritted his teeth and borrowed another sum of money, and quickly moved one-third of the residents in the development area. Under everyone’s attention, Yan Shihui moved the first shovel, and the engineering team quickly followed up and continued to dig in his direction.
When the excavator reached one meter, two meters, three meters, four meters, and five meters, the excavator suddenly stopped. The driver stuck his head out and gestured to the ground, “It doesn’t feel right.”
“What’s wrong?” Yan Shihui asked when he stopped.
The next moment, a torrent rose into the sky, the soil faded away, revealing the roots of the dragon and panqiu knot below.
Yan Shihui had a bad feeling in his heart, “Try digging around.” The
engineering team spread to the surrounding area, and for thousands of meters, the underground was full of thick roots, like coiled dragons lying on the ground. In the dark brown soil, the twists and turns are endless. Before Yan Shihui could come up with a solution, the news had already spread. The entire Fengcheng suddenly shook, and countless people poured in. The expert team sent people to protect the scene as quickly as possible and started further investigation. As for Yan Shihui’s project, who cares?
Just when the entire Fengcheng’s eyes were fixed on Nancheng, Lu Lingxi’s family was in chaos.
In ten months of pregnancy, the child in Wang Shuxiu’s womb is finally about to be born.
“Quick, I’ll take Xiaohua to the hospital first, Xiaoxi, pack up and follow.” Xiao Feng hurriedly ran towards the car with Wang Shuxiu in his arms.
As Lu Lingxi agreed, he quickly sorted out the things he had prepared in advance. Clothes, towels, baby blankets, diapers… “What else?” He asked Yan Yue nervously.
Yan Yue checked the list again, “Are you missing a baby bottle?”
“Ah? Yes.” Lu Lingxi hurriedly looked for a baby bottle again. There were only four baby bottles at home, of different sizes, so he simply brought them all. At that time, the doctor ordered which one to use.
After some fuss, the two rushed to the hospital in large and small bags. Wang Shuxiu is in good condition and has been sent to the delivery room.
Lu Lingxi was a little nervous, but more nervous, “Will your mother be alright?”
“It will definitely be alright.” Yan Yue’s voice had a calming power.
Lu Lingxi breathed a sigh of relief, leaning gently in Yan Yue’s arms, waiting for the birth of a new life.
