Chapter 169

Now he has that chance.

Therefore, Li Jiandong still wants to do his best to contribute to the rejuvenation of China. This is the meaning of the names he gave to his four children. The rejuvenation of China cannot be just talk.

In the next few days, Li Jiandong was waiting for Qin Huairu's decision.

If Qin Huairu was willing to accompany the children to Hong Kong, then he wouldn't have to worry about it anymore.

If he really doesn't want to, Li Jiandong has another alternative.

That is, let Ding Qiunan accompany the children.

However, Ding Qiunan is introverted and not as smooth as Qin Huairu in dealing with people. In Li Jiandong's eyes, Ding Qiunan himself is also a child who needs care.

If possible, Li Jiandong still hopes to let Qin Huairu go, so that he can feel more at ease.
Half a month passed in the blink of an eye.

Qin Huairu finally made a decision. She decided to go to Hong Kong with her children.

The reason for making this decision is actually very simple.
Because Li Jiandong is an adult and can take care of himself even without her, but the children can't.

Moreover, Qin Huairu has also learned about Hong Kong during this period of time, and compared with Jilin and Liaoning, it is indeed not a place of the same level.

Qin Huairu didn't have any expectations for Hong Kong, but she hoped that her children could go to a better place.

For the sake of the children, Qin Huairu had no choice but to make this decision.

of course.

There is another unknown thing that had a great influence on Qin Huairu's decision.

Qin Huairu never told anyone about this matter because she was just suspicious.

That is, as Ding Qiunan's child grew older, Qin Huairu discovered that Ding Qiunan's child looked a bit like her man.

Moreover, Ding Qiunan's son is named Ding Niandong. Which Dong is the "Min" in this name? According to Ding Qiunan's own explanation, is the "Dong" in his son's name the "Dong" in Jiandong or the "Dong" in Dongtian?

Qin Huairu has always suspected that it is most likely Li Jiandong's.

It was too obvious that Ding Qiunan missed Li Jiandong.

What made Qin Huairu even more suspicious was that Ding Qiunan was pregnant when she went to Jilin and Liaoning, and her man was also in Jilin at that time.

Although Qin Huairu has always trusted her man, she has not noticed any special contact between the two during this period.

However, with so many coincidences combined, she had to doubt...

So Qin Huairu thought that even if she left, Li Jiandong would not lack someone to take care of him.

Li Jiandong felt relieved when he heard Qin Huairu's decision.

Of course, he didn't intend to drive Qin Huairu away. The reason he chose to let her go to Hong Kong was entirely for the good of the children.

11 month.

There is only one month left before going to the countryside to work.

If we really wait until that time, it will not be so easy to send the children to Hong Kong.

Before going to the countryside, Li Jiandong used his connections to get a letter of introduction.

Qin Huairu and her four children were sent to Hong Kong.

Before leaving, Li Jiandong gave Qin Huairu a large sum of money.

Over the years, he made a lot of money through the apprenticeship system, all of which was stored in his portable farm. It was difficult to spend so much money in North City.

Once you go to Hong Kong, you won’t have to worry about these things.

Li Jiandong was afraid that his children and wife would suffer, so he gave them a total of 20 yuan and exchanged it for foreign currency bills for them to take with them.

This way, when the bananas arrive, they can just take them out and spend them directly.

Originally, in order to make Qin Huairu and the children live more comfortably there, Li Jiandong wanted to arrange for Xu Damao and Lou Xiao'e to go there as well. Lou Xiao'e also wanted to see her parents, so it wouldn't be nice to go over and take a look.

However, there are too many people to arrange at one time, and he cannot do it with his current abilities.

After seeing the children and Qin Huairu off, Li Jiandong suddenly felt empty inside.

Every day when I get home from get off work and look at the lonely courtyard, I feel very empty inside.

He was the only one left in such a big yard, and anyone would feel lonely.

"How about we go back to the compound some other day and see if we can continue to live here?"

Li Jiandong thought so.

Living alone is really too hard. Although Sha Zhu is responsible for breakfast and lunch, Chen Xueru also helps with washing clothes and cleaning.

But what is most painful is that there is no one to sleep with at night and there is no laughter of children at home.

Li Jiandong also thought about asking Ding Qiunan to come over, but then he thought better of it.

Ding Qiunan has been raising her child alone and has been living a good life over the years. Li Jiandong doesn't want to add to her troubles.

Qin Huairu and the children went out, but it didn't mean they would never come back.

If they come back and see that Ding Qiunan and I are living together at home, they will inevitably be disappointed.

After Ding Qiunan settled down, if he was discovered by other people, it would be difficult to explain. It is inevitable that if you walk by the river, you will get your feet wet.

Therefore, it would be more reasonable for him to live back in the compound.

After work this day.

Li Jiandong did not return to the second courtyard, but came to Courtyard 40.

As soon as he entered the door, he was seen by Yan Bugui.

Seeing Li Jiandong coming back, Yan Bugui was very surprised and went to greet him with a big smile. "Old Li, how come you have time to come back today? I missed you so much after not seeing you for such a long time."

Yan Bugui said with a smile.

Li Jiandong is the lucky star of their family, so of course he is happy to see Li Jiandong.

At this time, Li Huilan, who lived in the front yard, heard the noise and came out of the house.

"Uncle, it's really you. It's been a long time since we last met. What's the matter with you coming back today?"

Li Jiandong smiled and said to the two: "It's nothing, I just feel uncomfortable living alone at home, and suddenly want to come back to visit."

Yan Bugui heard this and couldn't help but sigh and said:
"Old Li, you did something wrong this time. Hong Kong is so far away, but you sent your children and wife over without even telling them.

If you had told us a little more, we would have definitely stopped you.

Now that your children and wife have gone so far away, you feel lonely, right? It's too late."

People in the hospital only found out later that Li Jiandong had arranged for his children and wife to go to Hong Kong.

Li Jiandong did not tell them, mainly because even if he told the people in the hospital, what if other people knew that they were going to go to the countryside and also wanted to arrange for their children to go to Hong Kong?
With his ability, he couldn't arrange for too many people.

So, the best solution is to not tell anyone.

Now, the documents for going to the countryside have not yet been issued, and people in the hospital certainly don’t know why Li Jiandong arranged for the children to leave.

They just thought that Li Jiandong was concerned about the children's learning problems.

So no one can understand it.

For them, why should they leave the North City when they can study anywhere else?
It’s still a place as far away as Hong Kong. If you want to take a look, you have to take a whole day of flight.

Isn’t this just asking for trouble?
However, Li Jiandong had no intention of explaining to them.

He just smiled and said, "Yeah, I really regret it now, but think about it, this is all for the children, so that they can get a better education, so I can just endure it by myself."

Li Huilan said beside her:

"Third uncle, I think what the first uncle did is right. Aren't we elders working so hard for the children? If my family had the conditions, I would also want to give the best to my children. It's all because of my illness. I have to spend so much money on medical treatment every month, which has ruined our family."

Li Huilan sighed deeply when she said this. She has been suffering from the disease for many years. Although she is not dead yet, she has to spend more than 20 yuan on medicine every month.

For many families, this amount of money is already a month's living expenses for the entire family. Li Huilan felt bad about just paying it away like that.

If she couldn't still make some money now, she would really want to die.

Li Jiandong hadn't been back for a long time and almost forgot that Li Huilan had health problems.

Over the years, Ding Qiunan's medical skills have improved a lot. With the blessing of the hundredfold return, Li Jiandong's medical skills have reached level two, and he is only one level away from the full level.

It is no exaggeration to say that his medical skills are unparalleled in the world now.

Now that he had encountered this, he also wanted to try whether he could cure Li Huilan's disease.

"Sister Li, my medical skills have improved recently. Let me take your pulse and see how your body is doing."

When Li Huilan heard Li Jiandong's words, her eyes suddenly lit up.

Everyone in the hospital knew that Li Jiandong's medical skills were miraculous. He even cured Ye Xiaoning's terminal illness. Li Huilan had actually wanted to ask Li Jiandong for a try for a long time, but she felt embarrassed.

After all, Li Jiandong had already helped him a lot, so how could she have the nerve to make any other requests?

Unexpectedly, Li Jiandong took the initiative to bring up this matter today, which made Li Huilan overjoyed.

He quickly stretched out his arm and said, "Uncle, thank you very much, but this disease of mine is an old one. It has been delayed for so many years and I don't think it can be cured. You can just help me take a look."

Li Huilan was afraid that Li Jiandong would not be able to cure her illness, which would make her lose face, so she deliberately spoke in a light-hearted manner.

But her expression and the expectation in her eyes betrayed her.

Li Jiandong didn't say anything, but just reached out and grabbed Li Huilan's wrist.

He placed three fingers on her pulse and quickly found the cause of Li Huilan's problem.

He released her pulse and said, "Sister Li, your disease is indeed difficult to cure, but it can be cured with a little conditioning. Don't take your medicine in the future. I will prescribe you a new prescription. The effect should be better than the medicine you are taking now. The key is that it is cheap. Only three or five yuan a month will be enough."

I have to say that Li Jiandong's medical skills are much better than those chief doctors in the hospital.

Even if Li Huilan's disease cannot be completely cured, at least it can help alleviate her symptoms and allow her to live a few more years.

Hearing Li Jiandong's words, Li Huilan burst into tears.

Over the years, she has been almost suffocated by this disease. More than 20 yuan a month is such a huge burden.

Today Li Jiandong wrote her a new prescription. Although she didn't know how effective the medicine would be, she was willing to take it as long as it could help him save some money, even if it meant she would die a few years earlier.

Of course, Li Huilan would never have thought that sometimes cheap things can be good, and treating illnesses is all about using the right medicine for the right disease. The more expensive the medicine, the better the effect.

Li Jiandong asked Yan Bugui to go home and get paper and pen, and wrote a prescription for Li Huilan in the yard. Then he handed the prescription to him and told her how long to take the medicine.
Then continue walking towards the central courtyard.

After the last earthquake, every household in the compound built a new house. Now the courtyard is no longer as spacious as before. The front yard has become much narrower and most of the middle yard has been occupied.

However, there was a large empty space in front of Li Jiandong's house.

Because although Hu Haodang and Ye Xiaoning live in this place, it is Li Jiandong's house. Without Li Jiandong's permission, no one dares to build a house in front of his door.

So now, out of the huge central courtyard, there is only this small courtyard in front of Li Jiandong’s house.

After washing clothes, people can only hang them out to dry in this place.

At this moment, several women were washing clothes here. When they saw Li Jiandong coming back, they all stopped what they were doing.

"Old Li, why are you back?"

Jia Zhang was the first to see Li Jiandong and said excitedly.

Although Li Jiandong can no longer control his son and their cadre levels are the same, Jia Zhang still respects Li Jiandong very much.

"Uncle, you haven't been back to our yard for a long time. What brings you back today?"

At this time, the other residents nearby also started chattering excitedly.

"Yeah, we haven't seen the old man for several months. Is there anything that brought you back today?"

"I heard that Huairu and Xunfu have gone to Hong Kong. Uncle, you are not feeling lonely at home and want to move back to our courtyard, right?"

"Oh, if that's the case, it's a good thing. We can't wait to welcome you."

"Yes, uncle, if you are willing, please come back. We are all looking forward to your leadership."
The residents in the yard were all very excited. They really wanted Li Jiandong to come back.

Although their life was good during the time when Li Jiandong was away, overall it was still worse than when Li Jiandong was there.

This is mainly because when Li Jiandong was around, he always brought them surprises every now and then, such as opening a pub, building a dormitory building, building a kindergarten, etc. He was able to make money with everyone.

Even after the company went through a joint venture, they were still assigned more work than other institutes.

When Li Jiandong was in the courtyard, what he said was what mattered. He was bold, powerful, and wise. Whenever there were any conflicts between neighbors, Li Jiandong could quickly settle them fairly and impartially.

If there are some threats from outside, Li Jiandong can also protect them.

After he left, Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui were left. These two people often made mistakes when doing things, and many people in the courtyard disobeyed them.

This also leads to situations where things often cannot be solved.

Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui would go to Li Jiandong for advice and let Li Jiandong make decisions for them.

If Li Jiandong could come back, then some of the trivial matters in the yard would definitely be reduced a lot.

Of course, there is still a problem now, that is, there is no extra room in the yard.

If Li Jiandong comes back, who will move out?
At this time, Hu Haodang, who was eating in the house, also heard the sound and came out. Seeing that it was Li Jiandong who came back, Hu Haodang hurriedly invited him.

"Director Li, why didn't you say hello when you came here today? If I had known, I would have prepared more dishes to let Daqing busy himself, and the three of us would have a good drink. If you don't mind, come and sit down and eat something. Although there are not many dishes, it will do."

Hu Haodang was very enthusiastic.

He is a grateful person. Li Jiandong not only helped his family, but also helped Ye Xiaoning cure her terminal illness. It can be said that Hu Haodang's entire family has benefited from Li Jiandong.

So I have absolute respect for him.

Li Jiandong smiled and said, "It just so happens that I haven't eaten yet, so I won't be polite."

He Daqing, who was in the next room, also came out and said after seeing Li Jiandong, "Old Li, it's really you. Come on, why don't you come to my house? I have a lot of dishes at home. Old Hu, just bring some wine."

Since Hu Haodang moved in, he got He Daqing drunk several times in a row.

So much so that Xu Huizhen no longer allowed him to drink, and only when Li Jiandong came would Xu Huizhen make an exception and let him have two drinks.

So, when he saw Li Jiandong, He Daqing's saliva began to flow, and he kept inviting Li Jiandong and Hu Haodang to his house.

Although Xu Huizhen didn't want He Daqing to drink with Hu Haodang, Li Jiandong was back, so Xu Huizhen had to give him this face. While packing up, she said to the two children.

"Tingting Mengmeng, let's go, let's go to Aunt Ye's house next door for dinner with mom."

When men eat and drink, women should of course keep a distance from them.

Li Jiandong also came to his house with He Daqing, and Hu Haodang also came over with wine.
The three of them sat together, poured some drinks, and quickly started eating.

After three rounds of drinks, Li Jiandong told them why he came.

He wants to move back home.

Let Hu Haodang and Ye Xiaoning move to his second courtyard.

However, what Li Jiandong did not expect was that Hu Haodang did not want to move either.

Although Li Jiandong's second courtyard was larger and more comfortable than living in this compound, it was Li Jiandong's courtyard after all, and it was arranged for him by his superiors. What was the matter with Hu Haodang moving there?
Besides, there are so many neighbors in Yard 40, and it is usually very lively. If he and Ye Xiaoning move there alone, it would be so boring.

In particular, when Hu Haodang went to work, Ye Xiaoning was left alone at home.

Hu Haodang had once heard Ye Xiaoning say how lonely she was when she was alone at home, and he didn't want his wife to go through the same situation again.

"Director Li, I beg you, I finally found our hospital, such a harmonious place, please don't chase me away. You know my Xiao Ning's situation, she can't stand loneliness. When she was with Li Huaide, she was alone at home all day, and she suffered for so many years. Now she has finally been happy for a few years. If she moves to your place again, I'm afraid she will really become autistic and depressed."
