"Well, let's start counting." He Yuzhu started counting the money with a smile on his face.

In fact, it was not necessary, because the 8000 yuan that Director Yang brought was neatly arranged in bundles of 10 10-yuan bills. Despite this, in order to avoid any disputes in the future, he still calmly counted them one by one.

Soon the 8000 yuan was counted, and then Director Yang handed over the remaining 486.6 yuan. He Yuzhu took it carefully, and after carefully counting and verifying it again, he smiled and asked: "Please help me get another newspaper. This much money is too heavy in my hand, and I'm afraid it will be lost if I'm not careful."

"No problem." Director Yang happily took a newspaper from the table next to him. He Yuzhu carefully wrapped all the money and bills in it and packed it. He then said, "Director Yang, the payment has been made in full. My friend is still waiting outside the factory gate. I will go and give him the money now."

"Haha, your friend has done us a great favor. We should have treated him to a good banquet, but he doesn't want to show up. We can only wait until next time." Director Yang laughed.

"Please don't worry too much, he will be very happy. I will go back first. Director Yang, goodbye." After saying that, He Yuzhu picked up the bag of money and stood up.

Outside the steel factory.

After leaving, He Yuzhu returned to the dense forest. He knew that things could not be done halfway, so he chose to be cautious.

After smoking a cigarette, he put all his belongings into his personal space. When he walked out of the woods, his hands were empty. He looked around and saw that there was no one around. He Yuzhu rode his bike back to the courtyard.

"Looking back, the team I led had a difficult start, with only a dozen people and seven or eight guns..." He rode his bike, humming songs all the way until he got home.

It is now nearly half past ten in the evening, and most of the families in the yard have fallen asleep, with only a few still having lights on.

"Honey, open the door, I'm back." He knocked on the door softly and called.

Soon, Wang Qian came to open the door, and after he pushed his bicycle into the house, she hugged him directly. Despite what happened yesterday, her worry was still visible.

"Okay, baby, it's okay. Today is the last trip. I won't have to go there myself again in the future." He hugged her gently and stroked her back tenderly.

After a period of comfort, Wang Qian gradually calmed down, let go of his hand and said to him seriously: "Husband, please promise me that we don't want to do this business anymore, okay?"

"Of course, didn't I tell you yesterday? From now on, even if it's a transaction, I will no longer take risks myself. If you often walk along the river bank, your clothes will always get wet. If you are unlucky and make a mistake, it will be enough for me to regret for a while. So, for you, and for our safer life in the future, I will cherish my present life and never take risks again." He Yuzhu said with a smile.

"Then let's make a pinky promise!" Wang Qian proposed seriously, stretching out her small fingers.

"You are so old and still acting like a kid. How childish." He Yuzhu smiled bitterly and shook his head.

"I want it!" Wang Qian answered coquettishly with her lips pouted.

"Okay, okay, let's make a pinky promise. It won't change for a hundred years. The one who breaks the contract will be a dog." In the end, he satisfied her with a distressed look on his face.

"Well, it's getting late, you should go practice boxing!" Wang Qian urged, looking at his satisfied wife.

"I won't practice tonight. After all, I sweated a lot today. You accompany me to take a shower." He Yuzhu replied.

As soon as he finished speaking, he took some water from the boiling fire and poured a lot of cold water into it. After adjusting it to a suitable temperature, he slowly walked towards the sleeping Wang Qian, gently picked her up, and said with a smile: "We have to take a bath tonight and enjoy it for a while!"

After a while, the unique sound was heard in the room again.

In the early morning, looking at Wang Qian who was still in a sweet dream, He Yuzhu bent down and kissed her gently, and then began his Bajiquan training.

Since Wang Qian is on vacation today, he plans to take a leave of absence to accompany her to visit her mother-in-law's house.

After practice, he went into his private space to take a shower and wash his clothes. After completing his daily check-in, he drew a small yellow croaker and threw it into the golden nanmu box.

Finding it was still early, he returned to the bed and continued to hug Wang Qian and let her sleep for a while. Only when he heard the neighbor's door open did he reluctantly get up and leave.

"Good morning, uncle!" He Yuzhu greeted with a smile.

"Hey, Zhuzi, you haven't gone out today?" The old man was a little surprised, because they were usually the first couple to go out.

"Hey, Wang Qian and the others don't have to go to work today, so they don't have to leave early. By the way, when we get to the factory, please tell Director Zhang that I want to take a leave and go home with my wife to visit her relatives." He Yuzhu told the old man with a smile.

The old man nodded with satisfaction after hearing this and said, "No problem, I will ask for leave for you later. However, will you come back here today if you accompany Wang Qian?"

"I won't go back to the factory today. I will come over tomorrow afternoon. Let her stay at home one more night so that I can accompany my mother-in-law. By the way, uncle, I will buy all the Spring Festival supplies when I come back tomorrow afternoon, so you don't have to worry about it. This year, let our family and the old lady celebrate together in the backyard." He Yuzhu explained.

"Good idea. Speaking of this... Huairu asked your aunt yesterday whether we should go to their house for the New Year. At that time, your aunt did not comment and said she would wait for you to go home and make the decision. I think we don't have to spend the New Year with her family. After all, it's better not to be involved in those unhappy things in the past." The old man spoke in a flat tone, but his eyes were examining He Yuzhu.

He Yuzhu listened and smiled to show his agreement, "Master, you are right. Let's let go of the past, otherwise the New Year atmosphere will fade."

"Okay, let's leave it at that for now. I'm going to the factory now." The old man smiled, nodded, and left.

After He Yuzhu saw the old man off, he went back to take a nap. Last night was too lively, and even now, Wang Qian was still sleeping soundly, and even his gentle embrace could not disturb her.

Later, when she returned to the He family's house, Qin Huairu looked a little gloomy. She had heard every word of the conversation between the old man and her husband. She had originally planned to use this New Year's holiday to have extra dishes for the family to enjoy, but she had never thought that the plan would fall through before it was implemented.

"Damn you, Shazhu, will it hurt you so much if you don't say no to others? You could have spent the holiday alone but you didn't, and now you drag my family into it!" She was filled with anger and regret. Since that morning, life seemed to have become completely unpredictable.

Not only did the family cut off the support from He Yuzhu's family, but the frequent misfortunes also made Qin Huairu feel confused and helpless: "I really don't understand how it became like this today."

It was ten o'clock in the morning. He Yuzhu and Wang Qian got up together. After washing up, He Yuzhu gave up the idea of ​​making breakfast.

"Honey, why don't we go out to eat, try the roast duck, and bring some back for our parents to satisfy their cravings." He Yuzhu suggested with a smile while hugging Wang Qian.

"No, let's be more frugal. I know you are good at making money, but as the old saying goes, you must not forget when you have money, and you must not waste when you have no money!" Wang Qian frowned and refused, with a hint of consideration in her words.

After hearing this, He Yuzhu kissed her deeply and said, "How can it be a waste? Life is just about enjoying these eating, drinking and having fun. Dear, you must learn to enjoy yourself!"

"Honey, then we should just eat out and don't bring it home. The last time I brought it home, my mother scolded me. I still remember it vividly!" Wang Qian recounted the past with a sad face.

"Okay, it's settled. Let's go to Quanjude to taste the roast duck first, and then go to the nearby shopping mall to pick up some cakes and candies to take home. Then we'll go to the cotton-padded shop next door to pick up the cotton-padded clothes and quilts we made earlier. We'll go home tomorrow afternoon and bring other things we need together." He Yuzhu discussed the arrangements.

"Haha, you really are like a generous god of wealth. It's rare to see a son-in-law thinking about buying things for his parents-in-law every day." Wang Qian joked with a smile.

"I really treat you well. After all, I love you. Every time I bring them some gifts, they will feel at ease." He Yuzhu expressed his feelings with a chuckle.

"Okay, it's up to you. Buy whatever you want. You decide on household matters." The wife compromised and agreed.

After the couple had finished tidying up, they went out hand in hand and came to the front yard. Seeing the uncle's family talking around a new bicycle, He Yuzhu asked curiously, "What's going on?"

As soon as the third uncle saw them, he immediately said happily: "Zhu Zi is here! Come and have a look. My grandson Jie Cheng bought a new bicycle. Come and see how it is?" He laughed after saying that.

"Brother, thank you so much!" Xie Cheng hurriedly expressed his gratitude. Today's victory made him in a good mood. When he went to Yu's house in the morning, he not only welcomed back Yu Li, but also received a warm welcome from the family.

He Yuzhu smiled and took a look at the new bicycle, which was not a famous brand. Although the price tag was only 153 yuan, he was still a little surprised that Jie Cheng bought it so early. "Not bad. It will be much more convenient for traveling in the future."

"I was able to buy this thanks to your help, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to buy it." Xie Cheng said modestly, his joy evident in his words.

"You're welcome. We're from the same courtyard. I won't keep you any longer. I'll take your sister-in-law back to her parents' home. Let's go." He Yuzhu said, and said goodbye to everyone with a fulfilled mood.

On the way, Wang Qian snuggled up to the seat behind He Yuzhu, gently wrapping her arms around his waist. Their bodies were closely connected, and even through the thick winter clothes, she could still feel each other's beautiful curves.

The two went straight to Quanjude, and after tasting the roast duck, they asked the waiter to pack two portions. Later, at Wang Qian's insistence, they reluctantly left the department store. Standing at the door of the store, seeing He Yuzhu's shopping results hanging on the handlebars of his bicycle, Wang Qian couldn't help but tap her forehead and said, "Dear, we agreed to control the amount of shopping. Look, another ten yuan!" Although she was helpless, her tone was full of doting. He Yuzhu smiled and said, "It doesn't matter. Money, if you don't make enough, you can make more. The key is to have a sense of happiness."
