"Brother Mu! We're back!"
Just as Mu Xi was standing on the balcony, smoking and thinking, the door to the living room suddenly opened. Sun Yiyi and her sister Mu Chenxi walked in with shopping bags of various sizes.
"Where are Uncle and Auntie?"
After temporarily placing the shopping bags on the sofa, Sun Yiyi walked over to Mu Xi's side and sniffed the cigarette smoke on his body. She wrinkled her cute nose.
Mu Xi smiled and rubbed Sun Yiyi's head, saying,""Dad went to play cards with his friends, and Mom is doing skin care at a beauty salon owned by a friend nearby.”
"Oh ~"
Sun Yiyi nodded, seemingly understanding what she meant. Then, she pulled Mu Xi's hand to the sofa.
"Come and try it on. Chenxi and I have picked out a few clothes for you.”
Pulled along by Sun Yiyi and her younger sister, Mu Xi tried on the clothes that the two of them had picked out for her in the afternoon. Not only did they fit her, but they also looked good. This made Sun Yiyi's eyes carry a blissful smile.
Not long after, his father and mother returned home. His father went straight into the kitchen to prepare dinner, while his mother held Sun Yiyi's hand and chatted with her again. From time to time, she would scrutinize Sun Yiyi's face, and her eyes were filled with a satisfied smile. Mu Chenxi pouted when she saw this.
The next few days passed quickly, and soon it was New Year's Eve.
Nowadays, the big cities basically banned the release of fireworks during the New Year, but Mei City had not implemented this rule. Therefore, as the sky darkened, people began to set off firecrackers one after another. When it was midnight, the whole city was lit up with fireworks, making the entire sky seem like it was daytime.
On the third day after New Year's Eve, Mu Xi bade farewell to her parents and sister and brought Sun Yiyi to her hometown.
Although Mei City didn't have an airport, it was connected to the provincial capital city by high-speed rail, so it was more convenient to return to Mu Xi's house. However, it was troublesome to return to Sun Yiyi's house. The two of them first took a plane to the provincial capital of your province, then took the high-speed rail to a prefecture-level city. After that, they took a bus to a certain county town. Finally, they took a tricycle that pulled passengers in the county town and stumbled into the mountains. Only then did they return to Sun Yiyi's house before dark.
On the way, Sun Yiyi finally told Mu Xi about her parents 'situation.
It turned out that Sun Yiyi's father was an honest farmer, and her mother was introduced to her father by someone else. She got pregnant with Sun Yiyi less than a year after they got married.
Although life was poor, he was very happy.
Unfortunately, everything changed with the birth of Sun Yiyi's younger brother.
Sun Yiyi's mother fell ill after giving birth to her younger brother and passed away not long after. Her father went out to work to support his family and eventually died in an accident at the construction site.
If it weren't for the boss who hired Sun Yiyi's father to compensate her with a large sum of money, coupled with the poverty relief policy of the local department in Sun Yiyi's hometown, Sun Yiyi's family wouldn't have been able to continue living.
Fortunately, both Sun Yiyi and her younger brother Sun Zheng worked hard. The two children's academic results were very good. Especially Sun Yiyi's younger brother, Sun Zheng. He was practically completely executing what was meant by " as long as you don't die from learning, you'll learn from death."
The teaching quality of the local county high school was not very good, but even so, Sun Zheng could exceed the designated key university score in every joint mock exam.
There was a saying that the children of poor families should be able to take care of their families early. This was somewhat biased towards survivors because children who could not take care of their families early were basically finished. Therefore, the children of poor families that ordinary people saw were generally mature.
Following Sun Yiyi, Cleansing Rain saw a dilapidated mud house halfway up the mountain.
To be honest, from a young age, whether it was in her previous life or this life, Mu Xi's memories of her childhood were very good. Her father had a stable job, and her family had a very deep network in the agricultural and commercial bank department. After all, since her grandfather's generation, they all worked in the same department. Therefore, Mu Xi did not expect to have such poverty.
Even though she was so poor, Sun Yiyi's grandmother and younger brother were extremely welcoming of Mu Xi's appearance. They even tried their best to bring out the best things they could to entertain Mu Xi, which made Mu Xi very touched.
During dinner that night, Mu Xi suggested that Sun Zheng could follow him to Shanghai to attend high school. Sun Zheng thought about it and rejected the suggestion.
Because if Sun Zheng left, then only the old and weak grandmother would be left at home.
Although Mu Xi said that she could bring Grandma Sun along, Grandma Sun directly rejected Mu Xi's good intentions.
It was obvious that Grandma Sun was worried that she would become Sun Yiyi's burden if she followed them. Seeing that Sun Yiyi had finally found a good home, Grandma Sun didn't want to create a rift between Muxi and Sun Yiyi because of her. She also didn't want Muxi to think that their family was greedy for wealth.
Helplessly, Mu Xi left 500,000 yuan to Grandma Sun and instructed Sun Zheng to contact them immediately if anything happened at home. She then returned to Shanghai with Sun Yiyi on the third day.
A few days later, the annual leave was finally over. With the return of the working day, everything was back on track.
Meanwhile, Cleansing Mist was paying attention to the business situation of Onmyoji and League of Legends while closely following the movements of international hot money.
Finally, it was mid-February. After making a comprehensive judgment that the British exchange rate futures market had hit rock bottom, Rain made its move.
