Chapter 442 You are like a shining little sun, scorching my eyes!
Chapter 442 You are like a shining little sun, scorching my eyes!
Li Hailian was stunned for two seconds before she understood what she had said.
He nodded: "Our He family's little granddaughter should be pampered."
Grandma has been saving her salary all these years. When we get to the city, we'll go to the credit union and change the name to yours!
"No need for that. My mother-in-law gave me a lot of money, so I have no worries now!"
Besides Meng Peiyu, who is like a sword hanging over her head, she fears that one day it will suddenly fall and stab her in the head.
“Your mother-in-law’s things are your mother-in-law’s things, and your maternal grandmother’s things are your maternal grandmother’s things. If it’s given to you, just take it.”
"What about my mother? Aren't you going to give her a share?"
Li Hailian laughed and said, "Give your grandfather's inheritance to your mother!"
"My uncle will be angry!"
"He won't!"
Qiao Manman smiled and nodded, thinking that if the old couple really did that, she wouldn't let He Jingcheng suffer a loss.
The car soon arrived at the department store, and Qiao Manman got out with Li Hailian and He Dechang, entering the store with a languid expression.
Xia Zhao and Ji Ming stood beside the group, while the others lagged far behind.
The sales assistant enthusiastically introduced the items on the counter to them. Qiao Manman wasn't very interested, but she still accompanied Li Hailian shopping and offered suggestions when appropriate.
The two of them bought a lot of fabrics together, including pure cotton floral fabrics, solid-color polyester fabrics, and tiger-head shoes and hats.
Seeing wool coats for sale on the counter, Li Hailian asked Qiao Manman to try them on: "This style is nice, you can wear it when the temperature drops."
Qiao Manman really liked the cut: "I can get two for my mom, we can't buy them back home!"
"Okay, you wear red, and she wears navy blue. Waiter, another one, please! Anything else? Do you like the leather shoes?"
“I love them! Lu Yuan bought me so many! My uncle gave me a pair that didn’t fit the other day, and I exchanged them.”
"It's okay, Grandma will buy it for you. Let's try it on a few times until it's right for you!"
By the way, what size does your mother wear? We're bringing her all this way; she can't wear something too big or too small!
"My mother's feet are a little smaller than mine, so I can try it on for her!"
"Okay, waiter, bring me two pairs of leather shoes, the most fashionable kind!"
"Okay, Auntie, please have a seat here!"
Qiao Manman picked out two pairs of shoes that she liked, and also bought outfits for each member of her family.
Li Hailian stopped her from paying, but Qiao Manman said, "This is a gift from my granddaughter to you!"
"Alright, alright, Grandma will wear this to see your mother!"
Qiao Manman straightened her clothes: "Looks good!"
She bears the marks of time quite heavily, unlike the pampered old ladies of later generations.
But it's okay, she has lots of good stuff, she'll slowly help her family recover.
Li Hailian smiled so broadly her eyes disappeared, and He Dechang straightened his back.
He Jingcheng went even further, circling the supply and marketing cooperative several times, telling everyone he met, "Isn't it beautiful? My niece bought it!"
It looked exactly like a monkey. Qiao Manman covered her eyes, unable to bear to look.
"What's wrong with my niece? Is she captivated by her uncle's handsome looks?"
"Yes, you're like a shining little sun, scorching my eyes!"
"Haha, my niece's way of praising people is truly unique!"
Li Hailian couldn't help but chuckle and whispered to Qiao Manman, "Look at him, doesn't he look like a silly roe deer?"
Yes, it's true! How could it not be? Even at his age, his eyes are as clear as a young boy's.
The family bought some cigarettes and alcohol, as well as some milk powder and pastries, and prepared to leave.
Qiao Manman took out her candy coupons and bought ten catties of candy: "Take it back and share it with the villagers, so they know that my mother is not an unwanted child!"
"Okay, okay, it's my duty!" Li Hailian raised her hand to wipe the corner of her eye, smiling very gently.
After leaving the department store, the group went to the credit union.
Li Hailian actually took out a savings book from her pocket and asked her to change it to Qiao Manman's name.
Teller Zhong Nianwei reminded Mr. Li, "This passbook cannot be used for withdrawals in other locations. If your granddaughter needs the money urgently, it may not be enough time."
Li Hailian hesitated, and Qiao Manman made the decision for her: "Could you please help me withdraw 1,000 yuan in cash, and deposit the rest in a five-year fixed deposit?"
"Just in case you need money..."
"Don't worry, Grandma, I have my in-laws. I'm not short of money!"
Upon seeing this, Li Hailian said to the teller, "Thank you for your help!"
Zhong Nianwei nodded and helped the two with their business.
Fifteen minutes later, the money and bankbook were delivered to Qiao Manman, who exclaimed, "Wow, I'm rich again!"
He Jingcheng looked at her with doting eyes: "When we go back to the Northeast, your uncle will give you the savings book too!"
Qiao Manman refused decisively: "You should save that for getting married!"
A group of people left laughing, and the teller watched their retreating figures, tears of envy streaming down her face.
"Fifty thousand! How many years would it take me to save up fifty thousand! That girl is a true winner in life!"
"Wait a minute, could I get to know that uncle? If I could hook up with him, I'd be leaping over social classes!"
"Oh dear, never mind, he's too old, I can't eat him!"
Zhong Nianwei rested her chin on her hand and sighed as she looked out the empty window: "If I had 50,000 yuan, what an optimistic and cheerful little girl I would be?"
As Qiao Manman listened to Zhong Nianwei's rambling in her mind, she couldn't help but laugh out loud.
When asked by everyone, she waved her hand and said, "I'm happy today, so whatever you want to eat, it's on me!"
A group of people went to a state-run restaurant. As soon as they sat down, Qiao Manman asked, "Xiao Tongzi, can you check if Meng Linyu is still in the city?"
The system was silent for two seconds, then shook its head: "Host, she has already left."
Qiao Manman glanced at her watch: "That's right, it's already 5:30, it'll be completely dark if we don't leave soon."
It gets dark earlier here than in Qingshan Brigade, it feels similar to Northeast China!
"It'll have to be a little later!"
Qiao Manman hummed in agreement and added more food to everyone's plate.
The young soldiers knew she was rich, so they didn't stand on ceremony and even said they would keep it a secret.
Qiao Manman thought to herself, "The fertility pills are famous. Even without this 50,000 yuan, I'm still a rich person."
What's more, there's also space resources for half a planet.
After finishing their meal, the group headed to the police station under the cover of night.
The three cars were parked a couple hundred meters away, and He Dechang and Li Hailian walked in with serious expressions.
Qiao Manman sat in the car and had the system amplify the sound from the office.
Director Yan received the two men looking exhausted and frankly admitted that the Hua family was involved in a lot of trouble and that a conviction couldn't be made in a short time.
"But don't worry, Mr. He, the higher-ups already know about this and will definitely handle it severely."
If there's anything you need to take care of, please do so first.
Ho Tak-cheung said, "I'm not at ease until I'm formally convicted."
"But we do have many things to investigate..."
"It's alright, you should investigate. I'll come over and ask every now and then."
Even so, Director Yan is under a lot of psychological pressure.
Old He is easy to talk to, but that doesn't mean others won't urge him on. He gets scared just looking at all those jeeps outside the window.
If the case remains unresolved for a long time, won't those leaders put pressure on the authorities?
Director Yan asked cautiously, "Why don't you go and ask the Hua family?"
Ho Te-chang rolled his eyes: "If you can't even get an answer from me, do you think I'm more capable than you? What are you thinking!"
