Yan Jiecheng nodded and said, "I'm just taking advantage of the cold weather."

The couple joked for a while, and Yan Jiecheng added, "But can Li Xuewu agree? Besides, we don't have that much money. There is no roof over there, which is equivalent to building a house. Why don't we need three or four hundred yuan?"

"

"It's no use. I went to see it. There are many young and old bricks there. I'll go talk to Li Xuewu about this. It's definitely done. If we don't have enough money, we can borrow it from Li Xuewu. We can just save the money and pay him back."

"Can it be done? We are not related to each other, so why would they lend us money?"

Yu Li waved her hand and said, "If you drive for him, you are considered one of your own. If I help him with the recycling bin, you will be considered one of your own. Why don't you give me some favors when you ask for help? Besides, it's not in vain for us."

He also spared his brother a house."

Yan Jiecheng thought for a while and said, "Hey, it's really good. My wife, you are really good."

Yu Li waved her hand and said, "Okay, don't worry about it. I'll tell Li Xuewu about this."

Yan Jiecheng thought about it and realized it was wrong. He pulled Yu Li and said, "But there must be time to build a house. Where should we live during this time?"

Yu Li gritted her teeth and said, "You can sleep in the factory dormitory. I'll go and discuss with Li Xuewu whether we can set up a temporary bed in the east room of the dormitory."

Yan Jiecheng hesitated. Wouldn't it be nice to put his daughter-in-law among the old men in the back room...

Yu Li said angrily, "What are you thinking about? There are many people in the room. Besides, the door to the east room is locked."

Yan Jiecheng nodded hissingly and had no choice but to fight for the house.

After Yu Li and Yan Jiecheng finished discussing it, the couple started packing. The quilts were not packed because they were still needed.

Because when Yu Li got married, her mother's family gave her a cabinet and a table as a dowry, so the furniture in this room was Yu Li's dowry. She planned to tell Li Xuewu and move them to the back room to store them together.

After Yu Li cleaned up, she didn't let Yan Jiecheng stay at home, and followed her to the west courtyard to help.

This is the shrewdness of Yu Li. Because Yu Li was helping in the dining room, there was no fire at home. Yan Jiecheng had no place to eat when he came back from vacation. Li Xuewu directly asked Yan Jiecheng to come to the dining room to eat.

Yu Li knew that Li Xuewu was taking care of the two of them, but she couldn't say anything, so she took Yan Jiecheng, who was on vacation, to the west courtyard to help.

This does not count as earning money, because this cannot be measured, it can only be said that things will happen.

Li Xuewu, who had been tricked, drove his car to the entrance of the Andingmen courtyard.

Naturally, he was stopped by the guards, because it was not a military vehicle, so Dong Wenxu got out of the car and went to the guard room to make a phone call, and then he was let go.

Li Xuewu was extremely envious of the security in this courtyard. If it was like this in his alley, there would be no need to worry about a thief.

When they arrived at the gate of Gu's courtyard, the orderlies who greeted Li Xuewu and Dong Wenxu last time were already standing in front of the gate waiting.

Li Xuewu parked the car into the courtyard under the command of the orderly. The courtyard was quite spacious and could accommodate three or four more cars.

As soon as I got off the car, I saw Editor Ding coming out with Mu Hongyan and Gu Ning.

When Dong Mengyuan saw Editor Ding, he ran over happily with his short legs, shouting, "Grandma, I miss you!"

Editor Ding chuckled and hugged Dong Mengyuan in his arms. He took off the scarf that Mrs. Han had put on her, revealed her round little face, kissed her, and said, "Grandma misses you too."

Li Xuewu stood next to Dong Wenxu and watched Mrs. Han and Editor Ding chatting with each other. Taking advantage of the gap, Li Xuewu nodded and greeted Mu Hongyan and Gu Ning.

Taking advantage of the moment of greetings, Li Xuewu opened the trunk and unloaded the things he brought out of the car one by one.

When the orderlies and waiters saw that Li Xuewu had many things, they also ran over to help.

Editor Ding and Han Shu also finished talking at this time and looked at the pork, rabbits, and pheasants that Li Xuewu was loading out of the car.

Seeing Li Xuewu moving down big boxes and bags, he said to Han Shu, "Xiao Shu, did you take this?"

Han Shu smiled and took Editor Ding's hand and said, "No, I came to your house to get something? Why don't I just bring my mouth with me?"

After joking for a while, he looked at Li Xuewu and said, "Xuewu brought it."

Editor Ding then said dissatisfiedly to Li Xuewu, who was carrying a gun case and a bag, "Xuewu, this is an outsider, why do you bring so many things when you come to your aunt's house?"

Li Xuewu said with a smile, "Aunt Ding, thanks for your kindness in taking care of me in the hospital, I feel that I have taken too little care. My teacher knows this. I have just finished my work. Otherwise, I would have come to see you after I was discharged."

Editor Ding was just polite, saying that this "prospective son-in-law" would accept whatever he came to bring, so he said so and let Li Xuewu and Dong Wenxue's family go inside.

Editor Ding walked in front with Dong Mengyuan in his arms, followed by Han Shu and Dong Wenxue, followed by Li Xuewu, Mu Hongyan, and Gu Ning's two sisters-in-law.

The orderlies and waiters followed behind carrying meat, rabbits and other things.

When he came in, Li Xuewu greeted Mu Hongyan and thanked him for his help.

Mu Hongyan responded with a smile and followed Li Xuewu to say a few words about the follow-up topic of recuperation.

As soon as I entered the room, I heard Editor Ding joking to Gu Haitao who was sitting on the sofa, "Look at my eldest grandson, he is so close to me. As soon as he entered the courtyard, he called me grandma."

Han Shu and Dong Wenxue also greeted Gu Haitao when they entered the room.

By the time Li Xuewu entered the room, Editor Ding had already untied Dong Mengyuan's hat and scarf, and also helped take off the cotton-padded jacket he was wearing outside.

When Gu Haitao saw Li Xuewu coming in, he gave a standard salute. He nodded with satisfaction and beckoned, "Xuewu is here, come on, sit down, you don't have to be so restrained at home."

Editor Ding smiled as he watched the interaction between his wife and Li Xuewu, and praised with great satisfaction, "This child has been taken care of in the hospital for a few days, and now he has brought a cart full of things."

Editor Ding loves his house so much that he can't even have a car. This is an exaggeration to say good things to Li Xuewu.

Dong Wenxue sat next to Gu Haitao and said with a smile, "I'm talking about him too. He's not an outsider, but he still takes so many things, hahaha."

Gu Haitao looked at Li Xuewu's daughter who came in behind Li Xuewu and walked past Li Xuewu, wondering how to get it right.

When he saw the things in the hands of the orderlies and waiters who came in later, they also laughed and accused Li Xuewu.

"I told you last time that I would come and play when I was free, but I couldn't wait to see you. It's great that you came here and were so polite."

Seeing that the atmosphere was good, Li Xuewu also smiled and said, "Thank you to the chief for your help this time, so I don't have to worry about anything."

Editor Ding pulled Li Xuewu to sit on the sofa, followed Li Xuewu and sat next to him, and said, "I told you last time in the hospital that with your relationship as a teacher, I should help you."

Li Xuewu smiled and said to Editor Ding, "My teacher said that I will pay back the favors I owe myself."

"Ha ha ha ha"

Several people laughed for a while, and Li Xuewu placed the gun box at his feet in front of Gu Haitao, and opened the lid in the direction of Gu Haitao, revealing the exquisite shotgun Li Xuewu had captured.

"Chief, I don't know what you like, but I know that during your military career, you must like weapons, so I will give you this shotgun."

Gu Haitao looked at the gun box Li Xuewu opened, frowned a little and said, "It's too expensive."

Editor Ding wanted to help Li Xuewu, but she didn't dare to interrupt when Gu Haitao frowned.

Dong Wenxue looked at the old leader's eyes and said with a smile, "I am a very naive student and I don't know how to give gifts. If he likes guns, he will give them to him. I heard that he even gave Xiaoning a gun in the hospital?"

When Dong Wenxu asked, he looked at Gu Ning, who was sitting opposite. Gu Ning nodded with a blush on his face.

Gu Haitao didn't know about this. Seeing Li Xuewu standing there awkwardly, he smiled and said, "Sit down, sit down"??

Seeing Li Xuewu being pulled down by his wife, he said, "I didn't know about this. It's good. When I was in Yan'an, I also gave you a gun to Teacher Ding, but it was not a good gun. Teacher Ding

I don’t like it either, and even scolded me for not knowing how to give gifts, hahaha.”

Seeing that Dong Wenxue had calmed down the atmosphere again, Li Xuewu also relaxed a little. Gu Haitao's mood swings just now were indeed full of majesty.

Editor Ding smiled as he watched Li Xuewu politely accept the tea from the waiter, and then looked at his wife and said dissatisfiedly, "Why didn't you tell me how ugly the gun was?"

After saying this, he explained to several people, "It's the southern pistol of the Japanese. It's pretty ugly, but it's not as good-looking as the Browning that Xuewu gave Xiaoning."

Gu Ning saw that her mother had brought the topic to him again, and her face that had just calmed down turned red again when the sister-in-law sitting next to her winked and teased her.

Gu Haitao looked at the shotgun in front of him and said, "The body of this gun is made of Damascus steel, and the workmanship is top-notch. You can tell just by looking at the brand."

As he spoke, Gu Haitao clicked on the letters engraved on the gun butt and said, "Pudele, I saw this when I was studying in France."

While talking, he took out several parts from the gun box and assembled them. After assembling, he looked down at the muzzle and said, "This is a 20-caliber one. The starting price must be three thousand pounds."

Seeing that Li Xuewu and others all stiffened and stared, Gu Haitao said, "Do you know why I said expensive?"

Li Xuewu smiled bitterly and said, "Chief, I really don't know. I captured this and I can't understand it, but it looks pretty good, so I thought of giving it to you."

"Hahaha, okay, since it's a trophy, I'll accept it."

While joking, Gu Haitao picked up the teacup in his hand and nodded to Li Xuewu.

Seeing that Gu Haitao agreed, everyone started laughing again. Li Xuewu handed one of the two bags at hand to Editor Ding and another to Mu Hongyan.

Editor Ding took Li Xuewu's bag in confusion and asked, "What is this?"

Before Li Xuewu could say anything, Mu Hongyan, who was sitting on the other side, had already opened the bag and said in surprise, "Ah! It's fox fur, it's really beautiful."

When Editor Ding saw his daughter-in-law take out a piece of red fox skin from the bag, he also opened his own bag. When he saw that it was a white fox skin, he couldn't help but said with joy, "It's really awesome."

Li Xuewu smiled and said, "It's from relatives in the Northeast. It's cold. I'll make a scarf or waistcoat for you and Dr. Mu."

Mu Hongyan obviously liked this color very much. He smiled so much that he narrowed his eyes and said to Li Xuewu, "Thank you for learning martial arts."

Li Xuewu smiled and replied, "You're welcome, I want to thank you for your life-saving grace."

Mu Hongyan smiled and said, "I just love hearing this."

Seeing my father-in-law looking over, he added, "I will definitely not take this from others, but I accepted what Xuewu gave me."

This can be considered a pun.

Editor Ding touched the rare white fur in his hand and put it on his shoulder to try it out. Hearing his daughter-in-law's words, he looked at Gu Haitao with a smile and said, "You know the price of this fur? I accept this gift from Xuewu, isn't it too much?"

Gu Haitao said, somewhat dumbfounded, "I didn't say anything, it's quite beautiful."
