Back to 1978: Getting rich starts with treasure hunting

Chapter 235

"Dad, dad, dad! Su Aiguo sold the old house!"

"What? I didn't hear you clearly, say it again!"

Su Aijun rushed into the room panting. Su Bangjie, who was lying on a chair smoking, put the cigarette butt into the ashtray and cleaned his ears.

Su Aijun took a big sip of the water on the table, then explained: "I said Su Aiguo sold the old house to someone else!"

"You met him. Did Su Aiguo tell you personally?" Su Bangjie was anxious. He had been thinking about the old house when the family was divided.

However, he was not the eldest son at that time and was not eligible to live in the old house, and his parents prepared the current one for him.

Now that he has a house to live in, he no longer covets things that don't belong to him.

But this time Su Bangliang's illness gave him an opportunity and aroused his greed.

Su Aijun shook his head: "I haven't seen Su Aiguo."

"You haven't seen him, so how do you know he sold the house to someone else?" Su Bangjie glared at him, thinking he was not doing his job properly.

"Dad, although I didn't see Su Aiguo, I saw a group of people carrying luggage and holding keys to open the door of the old house."

"Carrying luggage and holding keys? Are you planning to move in?" Su Bangjie was still unwilling after hearing what he said.

He rolled his eyes and walked out with the sun hat hanging on the clothes hanger.

"Dad, where are you going? Wait for me!" Jie Aijun chased after him.

Su Bangjie walked out swiftly, saying, "I want to go see who intercepted me halfway. I'm going to meet him if he has no moral integrity!"

Su Aijun caught up with him, "Dad, do we need to bring weapons?"

Su Bangjie was so angry that he raised his hand and slapped him on the back of the head, "You are just doing things recklessly all day long. We are armed. Aren't you afraid that you will be invited to have tea by the security team before you even reach the old house?"

Su Aijun covered the back of his head in grievance, "But, Dad, they have a large group of people, and if the two of us go there, we will be like sheep walking into a tiger's mouth."

Su Bangjie felt a lump in his chest, and said, "Why did I give birth to such an idiot like you? I went there to understand the situation, not to fight. You should reason first and then use force, don't you understand?"

At this time, Su Aiguo, who was taking care of a patient in the hospital, did not know that his good uncle was on his way to his home.

Lin Shu and others who were cleaning the yard at the moment had no idea that trouble was heading their way.

When he reached the door of the old house, Su Bangjie stopped and looked into the yard. He turned around and asked Su Aijun who was following behind him, "The door is open. Are you sure Su Aiguo is not at home?"

Su Aijun nodded: "Sure, when that group of people came over with their luggage, they opened the door from the outside with a key. Is it necessary for Su Aiguo to lock the door from the outside when he is at home?"

What does his father mean by asking this?

He asked this as if he was mentally retarded.

Su Bangjie didn't know what Su Aijun was thinking. After hesitating for a moment, he walked in.

Chen Fei was fetching water in the yard when he saw an old man coming in. Just as he was about to ask him a question, he saw a young man following the old man.

"Hey, today the old one comes after the young one is taken away."

Su Bangjie glanced at Chen Fei and walked into the house. Now he wanted to know what the people in the house were doing.

"Hey, old man, who are you looking for?" Chen Fei stopped Su Bangjie who was trying to rush in.

Su Bangjie was blocked, and he looked at the young man who blocked his way.

"I'm looking for the owner of this house. Who are you?"

Fade Chen pointed at himself and said, "I am the owner of this room now. If you have anything to say, please say it here. It is not convenient to receive outsiders in this room."

The word "outsider" made Su Bangjie's beard tremble with anger. "Comrade, your words are too harsh. Who do you say is an outsider? Me?"

"If I don't talk about you, then what about myself?" Chen Fei stared at Su Aijun who was watching from the sidelines behind him with a half-smile.

Su Bangjie was so angry that he couldn't say a word. He looked around but couldn't find any neighbors to testify. Finally, he pointed at Chen Fei with a trembling finger.

"I won't tell you. Ask Su Aiguo to come out. I have something to ask him."

Facing this old man who plotted against his relatives, Fade Chen would not tolerate him and said arrogantly:

"Su Aiguo is not here. If you want to look for him, go to the hospital. We are busy cleaning and preparing to move here. How can we have time to help you look for Su Aiguo?"

Lin Shu held Dabao in his arms and stood in front of the window of the east wing, looking at the old man in the yard, who was shaking with anger.

"I didn't realize in my last life that this old man had this side."

When she had come into contact with him before, the old man was always polite to her every time they met. She never thought that he could have such a shameless side.

Dabao rolled his eyes. In his previous life, this old man had a long life. When he came into contact with them, he had already achieved success in his career.

In front of an old man who puts profit above everything else, he naturally wouldn't dare to be rude to you.

He also hoped that his sons and grandsons would benefit from his advancement.

Seeing the old man stamping his feet in anger at Fade Chen and finally having no choice but to leave in anger, Lin Shu stood in front of the window and gave Fade Chen a thumbs up in admiration.

Lin Shu carried Dabao out of the room and sat under the shade of the tree. "Hurry up and wash the rag and mop. We will go out to eat at noon, buy some food in the afternoon, and cook here in the evening."

Fade Chen washed the rag and hung it on the clothesline. He smiled and said, "If Brother Jiu has no objection, then I have no objection either. What would sister-in-law like to eat for lunch?"

"After dinner, we have to hurry up and buy some food. Let's just have a simple lunch, and then buy some more delicious food to reward everyone in the evening."

Li Wan came out of the room with a mop and took over the conversation, "I can't help with other things, so let me prepare dinner tonight."

"Then I'll leave the dinner to you, sister-in-law." Lin Shu took out some money and handed it to Li Wan. "Let Lin Gang accompany you to the farmer's market this afternoon. I'll trouble you to buy the kitchen utensils, rice, flour, oil, salt, vegetables, etc."

"Don't worry, let me buy the kitchen supplies. I will definitely get it done." Li Wan agreed.

After a simple lunch, Chen Fei took Xiaohui to the flea market to see if he could pick out two old beds.

Gu Jiu, Lin Shu and four other people went to the supply and marketing cooperative.

They needed to buy a lot of bedding, bamboo mats, toiletries, curtains, etc. The items were very small and there were not many people to carry them, so they couldn't get them back.

Four big men carried the goods, including bedding and quilts, and made a trip.

Then it was toiletries, buckets, basins, mouthwash cups and other miscellaneous items that made them run back home again.

Then I bought curtains, curtain rods and other things and made another trip.

Su Aiguo stayed in the hospital for a day. He was worried about his tenants and ran back during dinner time.

As soon as I entered the yard, I found that the house was very lively. The lights in every room were on, and even the broken light bulbs in two rooms were repaired.

He walked to the door of the wing room and looked inside, and found that the room was cleaned tidy, curtains were installed on the windows, and bedding was made on the bed.

Some walls are covered with celebrity pictures and calendars.

Compared to the house that was filled with junk before, it looks more homely.

"Comrade Su, you're back?"

Li Wan came out carrying a pot of chicken and just happened to see Su Aiguo standing at the door of the wing room looking inside.

Su Aiguo was startled by the voice behind him. He turned around and smiled: "Comrade Li, I just got back. Are you planning to move in tonight?"

Li Wan replied: "Since we have rented a house, we must move in as soon as possible. You have to know that staying in a hotel for one more day means one more day of expenses."

Su Aiguo was afraid that she would misunderstand, so he quickly explained, "I didn't mean anything else, I just thought you were really fast."

Lin Shu heard voices at the door and walked out of the room. Seeing that it was Su Aiguo, he smiled and greeted him, "The landlord is back. Have you eaten?"

When it comes to eating, Su Aiguo couldn't help swallowing his saliva. The chicken that Li Wan served was so delicious.

Su Aiguo, who hadn't had a good meal for a while, couldn't help but drool.

In order to avoid appearing to the customers like a loser, Su Aiguo tried not to let his eyes rest on the chicken.

He suppressed his greed and turned back to Lin Shu and shook his head: "I'm coming back to get some clean clothes. I'm going back to the hospital soon. I won't disturb you for dinner."

Although Gu Jiu didn't know why Lin Shu was so nice to this young man, he didn't refuse her face and tried to persuade her to stay, "Since you're back, eat before you leave. Dinner will be served soon."

Su Aiguo wanted to refuse, but Fade Chen glanced at Gu Jiu, walked over with a laugh, and put his arm around Su Aiguo's shoulders. "Come on, brother. It's a rare opportunity for us to cook so many delicious dishes. Let's try them together."

"Oh, that's really not necessary. This... this is so embarrassing."

"It's just a meal, it's not a big deal. If you're a man, don't be so hesitant."

Su Aiguo was forced by Chen Fei to sit down at the table. He noticed the dishes on the table and said in shock: "This... is too rich!"

"Today is our moving day, let's celebrate." Chen Fei explained casually.

Su Aiguo observed the expressions of others and found that no one was surprised.

No one was surprised, but he was even more shocked. Rich people still live a happy life. They can do whatever they want, unlike him who has to beg others for a few dozen dollars.

Although they are of the same age as him, they are obviously not in the same circle.

They have money, so they can do whatever they want immediately with the money, but he has to think for a long time.

For example, in this house today, if they have money, they can just go out and buy whatever they want.

Li Wan helped Su Aiguo scoop half a bowl of chicken soup. "You've been busy all day. Drink the chicken soup before eating. I've left some in the pot in the kitchen. When you finish eating, take the chicken soup to your uncle to drink so that he can also replenish his body."

"No need to bother. My dad has already had porridge in the evening."

Eating and taking things at the same time, Su Aiguo felt embarrassed just thinking about it.

"Chicken soup won't cause food stagnation. It will be digested in a short time."

Dabao sat in Gu Jiu's arms, looking at his honest future father-in-law, and sighed in his heart, wondering if he could meet his future mother-in-law in this life.

If not, then his wife is doomed.

However, it is not yet time for the future father-in-law and the future mother-in-law to meet and get to know each other, but...

Dabao looked at Chen Fei who was pouring wine.

But Chen Fei can date his aunt first.

In the future, if Su Aiguo and Xiaofen had not met, he could rely on Chen Fei to create opportunities for them to meet.

Fade Chen noticed that Dabao was staring at him with sparkling eyes, and asked with a smile: "Dabao, why are you looking at uncle? Did you find uncle particularly handsome today?"

As he spoke, he touched his shiny hair which was combed with mousse.

Dabao sucked the soup from the chicken leg and looked up at the truly handsome Gu Jiu to wash his eyes.

Lin Shu watched Fade Chen show off his hair while eating, and joked, "Boss Chen, your hair mousse is not cheap, right? How long can it last after one comb?"

Fade Chen smiled and said, "About two days. It could have lasted longer."

"Oh, it lasts for two days. Doesn't that mean a bottle of mousse can last a long time?"

"Haha, my hair is messy after a night of sleep, so I put some water on it and comb it, and when it's dry, it's fixed again."

Lin Shu stroked his forehead speechlessly. He couldn't help laughing any longer. "You are really thrifty. All the dust that fell on your hair the day before has been combed into your hair like this."

Chen Fei helplessly touched his stiff hair after styling it. "There's nothing I can do. Mousse can style hair, and it's not cheap. Don't you think my hair looks a lot more handsome after being styled?"

"I've been here for a few days. How are your things going?" Lin Shu asked.

"We've almost finished running. Now we just need to waste time here. It takes time to handle the formalities."

Lin Shu nodded: "I remember you met a beautiful girl on the train coming here. You can go and talk to her tomorrow if you have time. Maybe you can have a successful career and love life when you come to Guangdong to set up a factory this time."

"Oh, thank you for your kind words." Chen Fei was not shy at all and readily admitted that he had feelings for Liu Huimin.

The other gay men joined in the fun, all shouting that they should remember to make the date a success tomorrow and treat everyone to a meal when they came back.

Fade Chen held his hands down and said, "Don't make a fuss. It's just a meal. It's nothing."

It was impossible for Su Aiguo not to feel envious when he saw that group of passionate and enthusiastic young people.

Compared with them, he felt that he was already in his seventies and eighties and had almost lost his passion for life.

This group of people rented his house, and it seemed that from now on, the yard was injected with vitality and was slowly regaining its vitality.

Maybe it wasn't a bad thing for these people to live in his house.

Coming out of the house and walking on the way to the hospital, Su Aiguo looked at the thermos in his hand and a smile appeared on his face.

"Dad, are you hungry?"

Su Bangliang opened his eyes and looked at his son who had helped him up, and asked with concern: "Have you had dinner?"

Su Aiguo nodded: "I have eaten. I brought some chicken soup from home. Get up and drink some."

Su's mother came in from outside and saw her son pouring out chicken soup. She hurried over to take it and said, "I'll feed him. You sit down and rest for a while."

"Mom, have you eaten yet?"

"We just ate in the hospital cafeteria. I didn't get food for your dad because he didn't want to eat." Mother Su brought the spoon to Su Bingliang's mouth. "You don't want to eat porridge. Have some chicken soup to change the taste."

Su Biaoliang took a bite and his eyes lit up: "It tastes good."

Mother Su smiled and fed him half a bowl in a row. Then she realized what was happening and asked, "Aiguo, you have been back for a short time. Where did you get this chicken soup?"

Su Aiguo then remembered that he had forgotten to tell her about renting out his house, so he told her what happened yesterday and today.

"I had no choice. Dad's treatment cost money, and my second uncle coveted our house. In the end, it was those outsiders who helped me a lot. I was able to keep the house and solve the problem of Dad's treatment costs."

Mother Su glanced at Su Bangliang and said, "In that sense, they are our benefactors. It's just that your second uncle and second aunt's eating manners are so ugly that it makes people feel sick."

Su Biaoliang's eyes flickered, and the chicken soup in his mouth no longer tasted delicious.
