Chapter 190: Becoming a Blackmail Tool in the 7th Generation (23)
Shuangshuang saw the embarrassment Li Xiaoyi and his wife looked in and knew that the money was probably not enough, so she asked directly.
"How much is left?"
"I have over two hundred myself, and I'm still short of four hundred."
Both of them frowned. "Is it going to cost this much just to get a full transfer? This is almost enough to buy a job, right?"
Li Xiaoyi stammered, "Actually, it's the factory's recruitment quota. We are already there, so we can have fewer people."
Shuangshuang asked Xiaojuzi, "Is he lying to them?"
"It's not a scam, but if it were a formal job recruitment, it wouldn't cost that much."
"As long as they haven't been scammed, it's fine. They probably won't get a chance to work in the regular recruitment process."
So he directly agreed to Li Xiaoyi, "Okay, I'll give you the missing ones later. You can go back early and finish the work and feel relieved."
After bidding farewell to Li Manyi who was reluctant to leave, the two of them spent every day happily with their two children.
However, life is not always smooth sailing.
When the children were almost two years old, the army suddenly called and told Shuangshuang that Li Manyi was seriously injured while on a mission.
Upon hearing the news, the Li family was extremely anxious. Li's mother, with red eyes, quickly packed up her things and was about to go to the army, but was persuaded by Shuangshuang.
I suggested to her that I go there myself since I didn't do much at home anyway.
Finally, the family decided to go with their two young children.
In order to ensure the safe arrival of Shuangshuang and his two grandsons, Father Li used his son's name for the first time to find his son's comrade who was working as a railway police officer.
I asked him to buy a sleeper ticket for Shuangshuang.
When the comrade heard that it was Li Manyi who was injured and waiting for his wife to take care of him, he immediately agreed.
And quickly bought him a train ticket for tonight.
Shuangshuang waited at the train station with the children, letting Li's father and Li Zhongyi go back first.
But Father Li and Brother Li were worried and insisted on waiting until Shuangshuang was sent on the train.
Shuangshuang refused directly. The train was in the middle of the night and they couldn't let them wait that late.
"Dad, you go back with big brother. I'll be at the station. It's okay if you don't go out."
Li Manyi's comrade-in-arms also made a promise to Li's father.
"Uncle, don't worry, I will personally send my sister-in-law to the train.
I will also ask my comrades on the train to take care of her and ensure she reaches her destination safely."
Only then did Li's father and Li Zhongyi go back with peace of mind.
The two children are very well-behaved. Children aged one or two are usually the most lively.
However, Shuangshuang told them that they should not run around at the train station, otherwise they would be taken away by someone and would have to call someone else their mother.
Perhaps because they were frightened, or because they had taken the marrow cleansing pill since childhood, the two children were very smart.
He always stayed by Shuangshuang's side and never left his mother's side.
Shuangshuang didn't dare let them out of her sight, even though Xiaojuzi was there and they could be found quickly if they got lost, but she was also worried that it would scare the children.
Li Manyi's comrades on the train were also very responsible. They would come over every few hours to check on Shuangshuang and ask if she had any needs.
Perhaps it’s because of the railway police who come to take care of us from time to time.
Anyway, along the way, Shuangshuang didn't meet anyone with bad intentions.
When we arrived at the destination and got off the train, two comrades arranged by Li Manyi were waiting outside the train station in a jeep.
When the two comrades saw Shuangshuang holding a baby in one hand and carrying a large luggage bag on her back, they hurried forward to pick up the child.
The two children were quite well-behaved. Seeing that Shuangshuang did not refuse, they opened their arms to let their two uncles hold them.
They drove directly to the hospital and saw the bandage on Li Manyi's head. Their hearts ached immediately.
She held his hand tightly and scanned his body with her spiritual sense. She breathed a sigh of relief when she found that there was no major problem.
I even went to the doctor to inquire about his condition, and the doctor said he was very grateful.
“He is truly blessed with a great life!
He fell from the third floor and landed headfirst, but he was only injured.
Although the injury is a bit serious, it is also incredible."
The troops attach great importance to Li Manyi.
Seeing that Shuangshuang brought two children with her, it would be inconvenient for them to stay in a hotel.
They directly allocated a bungalow for Shuangshuang and her two children to live in.
Li Manyi's comrades were very enthusiastic and helped to get some necessary equipment from the logistics department.
After cleaning the house thoroughly, the couple can just move in with their luggage.
He kept asking Shuangshuang, "Sister-in-law, if there is anything else you need to prepare, just tell us directly, don't be polite with us."
Shuangshuang really didn't intend to be polite with them and proposed it directly.
"If possible, I also want a stove and a pot for cooking.
This way I can also make some soup or something for Manyi.
The comrade patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, I'll take care of this little thing!"
Thanks to the loving soup that Shuangshuang added some ingredients to, Li Manyi recovered well.
In less than a week, the doctor announced that I could go back home and recuperate.
Because of this injury, he was commended by the army and promoted to deputy battalion commander.
At Li Manyi's strong request, Shuangshuang decided to stay in the army with her children to accompany him.
I called home and explained the situation to my family.
Everyone in the Li family was happy for Li Manyi and strongly supported the decision of both of them to join the army.
After all, it’s not a big deal for a couple to be separated for a long time.
Now, I finally don’t have to be the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl like before.
After coaxing the two children to sleep at night, Li Manyi held Shuangshuang contentedly.
"Tangke, the wooden sign you gave me earlier has been broken."
It seems that he thought the amulet was broken when he fell from the building.
Shuangshuang naturally wouldn't tell him the truth, but just coaxed him gently.
"It's okay. My mother left several pieces of that thing. I'll just give you another one."
Then Shuangshuang stood up and rummaged through the luggage bag she brought with her, and took out a jade pendant and gave it to him.
The reason why we dare to bring it out is because the current policies are much more relaxed.
Those people don't arrest people at every turn now, so as long as he hides well, he will be fine.
Li Manyi took the "Nothing to Do" card and turned it over and over to look at both sides.
He said in surprise, "Wife, the pattern on this jade pendant is exactly the same as the previous one.
If it weren't for the different texture, I would have thought it was the same piece."
When Shuangshuang heard this, she froze slightly and immediately tried to make amends for him.
“Well, I’ve heard my mother say that before.
Her ancestor was a master carver who loved honeysuckle the most.
Therefore, every jade pendant he carved had a pattern of honeysuckle."
"Oh, so that's it."
"Okay, it doesn't matter what pattern it is, as long as it looks good, I'll put it on for you."
"Thank you, Tangke! Don't worry, I will definitely take good care of it in the future and it won't break again."
"It's okay, it's just a piece of card. Nothing is more important than your life."
With the protection of the protective jade token, Li Manyi can escape unscathed no matter what dangerous mission he is tasked with.
Shuangshuang didn't bother to apply to any university this time, nor did she want to start any business.
Before, I just focused on taking care of my children at home. After the reform and opening up, I took advantage of the trend of going abroad.
I used my savings to buy two bungalows from people who were going abroad.
He also encouraged He Xiangcao and Li Xiaoyi to buy it as well.
He Xiangcao naturally wanted to buy it too. Who in the countryside didn’t want to settle down in the city in that era?
Not to mention Li Xiaoyi, who used to rent a house and finally got a permanent job, but the factory didn't have any housing to allocate.
They were only given a single room of about ten square meters, and they were still not allowed to bring their two children with them.
Now that I have the opportunity, I naturally want to buy one of my own.
It’s a pity that Li Xiaoyi was fine. After the couple became regular employees, their salaries increased and they saved a lot.
He Xiangcao didn't save much money at all just by working in the fields, so Shuangshuang was very generous and promised directly.
"It's okay, I'll lend you the difference."
Shuangshuang has always liked He Xiangcao's personality because she never looks for trouble and is grateful.
No matter how good Mr. and Mrs. Li were to Shuangshuang, she never took it to heart, and sometimes she even spoiled Shuangshuang.
When He Xiangcao heard that Shuangshuang was willing to lend money, she naturally followed Shuangshuang to buy it.
Later, these houses were fortunately demolished, and both of them got more than ten three-bedroom, one-living-room apartments.
He Xiangcao also won six sets, and Li Xiaoyi also won five sets.
From then on, they followed Shuangshuang in everything.
Shuangshuang used the demolition money to buy about 10 storefronts, intending to live off the rent.
He Xiangcao gritted her teeth and spent all the compensation money she had to buy a house next to Shuangshuang's.
Li Xiaoyi followed immediately. She also realized that this sister-in-law had a much better vision than them.
