70s Delicate Girl: A Guide to Being a Rich Woman-Chapter 299 - 18: Home Again

On the way to the department store, Xu Mumu and Yin Yang had already come up with a way to encourage their parents to be more motivated and proactive.

As for this method, they naturally planned to go back and push them on it.

"I realize you’re so bad. My dad might cry," Xu Mumu said with a laugh.

"Weren’t you the one who wanted me to come up with this?" Yin Yang blinked at Xu Mumu, indicating his innocence.

"You’re saying I’m the bad one?" Xu Mumu looked at Yin Yang, implying that if he dared to say it, she dared to hit him.

"No, no, no, it’s me who’s bad." Yin Yang immediately shook his head, perfectly displaying the image of a man under his wife’s control.

In the afternoon, Xu Mumu went to the classroom, and Su Yue’e came looking for her right away.

"What’s up?" Looking at Su Yue’e, Xu Mumu asked curiously.

"Mumu, I got selected, and I specifically came to thank you." Su Yue’e said excitedly.

"Oh, it’s all your own hard work, I just helped ask about it. Since you got selected, just follow the program and study well." Xu Mumu nodded. She wasn’t planning to bond with Su Yue’e, naturally didn’t intend to say much.

Watching Xu Mumu’s departing figure, Su Yue’e pursed her lips and followed her into the classroom. This opportunity was very important to her.

During class, Xu Mumu was very focused, while she completely ignored the glances Su Yue’e occasionally shot her way.

In the evening, when Xu Mumu and Yin Yang were going back, Zhou Yunhong also came over, bringing along the big black dog, which Professor Jian had humorously named Little Black Dog.

"Yang, sister-in-law, I’ve already bought the house next door; how do you plan to handle it?" Zhou Yunhong asked while playing with the puppy.

"Let’s demolish it first and turn it into a warehouse. Mumu, if you ever want to experiment with something, you can go next door. I’ll see if I can get you some equipment." Yin Yang said seriously.

"Alright." Xu Mumu nodded.

Zhou Yunhong acted quickly, and by the next day, he had hired a construction team, and the house was promptly dismantled.

As May Day approached, Professor Song and the others knew they were planning a trip back, and Yin Yang had already bought the tickets.

When they were heading back, they carried many bags, not just what they bought, but also things gifted by Professor Song and the others. Xu Mumu refused several times, but Professor Song and the others were particularly warm-hearted, difficult to refuse, so Xu Mumu accepted them.

Looking at the pile of stuff in front of her, Xu Mumu felt a bit troubled.

They returned two days early, planning to play a bit longer.

"My, without realizing, we’ve bought so much stuff," Xu Mumu remarked.

"I should have called Yunhong along, more muscle," Yin Yang said calmly, as he and Xu Mumu organized the things and put them where they should go.

"Yunhong is helping us with the house, how can you be like that?" Xu Mumu felt a bit embarrassed. This guy keeps squeezing Yunhong, and that kid listens to Yin Yang without objections.

"Don’t worry, he’s very capable, not just that much," Yin Yang said calmly. After all, he was brought up by the Yin Family; the incapable ones were long eliminated. Yin Yang couldn’t help but admire his grandfather’s methods.

Xu Mumu shrugged, leaned against the bed in the sleeper, and took out her textbook to read. Another train ride, just thinking about it was exhausting. Luckily, the holiday was fairly long this time, giving them more days to rest back home.

Life on the train was very dull, not easy, even reading made time seem slow.

After nearly three days on the train, they finally arrived in the provincial capital, where Xu Minghui was already waiting for them.

"Why do you have so many things with you?" Looking at their luggage, Xu Minghui’s mouth twitched.

"It’s alright. These are for the family. Some are things we bought, and some are from Sir Song and the others." Xu Mumu said with a smile.

"That’s way too much. Don’t you have anything else to spend your money on?" Xu Minghui couldn’t help but click his tongue. His sister was getting more and more generous. He took a silent look at Yin Yang, wondering if Yin Yang’s family could sustain her spending habits.

"These are our tokens of appreciation. Brother, help us carry them, we can’t manage so much." Xu Mumu rolled her eyes, then called her brother to action.

The station was quite far from home, and with the three of them carrying the stuff, it didn’t seem like too much.

On the way, Xu Mumu asked Xu Minghui about his time at university, interested in his experiences.

Xu Minghui talked animatedly, saying he had made many friends and learned a lot since entering university.

"Brother, with all you’ve said, why haven’t you found a girlfriend? There must be girls in your class, right?" Xu Mumu asked calmly, glancing at her brother, implying that while marrying now is early in future standards, currently, he’s quite an eligible bachelor.

"There isn’t anyone suitable," Xu Minghui shrugged, feeling a bit upset; his sister was worrying too much, even about his lifelong matters.

He wasn’t concerned at all. Finding a partner should be about compatibility, not just settling.

Also, he didn’t fancy the girls in his class.

"Are you being too picky?" Xu Mumu eyed her brother suspiciously. Her brother always had high standards; hadn’t he changed that habit? Being too picky with too high standards isn’t good, and he should consider his own status.

"Haha, you just mind your own business. When I find your sister-in-law, I’ll bring her home right away," Xu Minghui squinted at his sister, feeling frustrated being urged to marry wherever he went.

At home, not only their parents urged him, but grandparents did too.

"Tsk, tsk. Brother, having too high expectations isn’t good. No girl will like that," Xu Mumu said with a smile.

Seeing his sister, Xu Minghui didn’t want to speak.

Helping with the luggage back home, only Xu Minglei and the grandparents were there, as Xu Hai and Li Caixia were at work.

"Sis, you’re finally back," Xu Minglei exclaimed in delight, as it had been a long time since he saw his sister. Wondering how long she’d stay this time was on his mind.

"Wow, the house has two more certificates, you got these, right? Minglei, you’re amazing," Xu Mumu said with a smile, patting Xu Minglei on the head. The little guy seemed to have grown a bit.

"Yeah, they weren’t hard." Xu Minglei tried hard to suppress his rising smile, clearly pleased that his sister noticed and acknowledged his progress as soon as she got home.

"Minglei, let your sister have a good rest, they just got back from a tiring trip," Madam Chen brought out some snacks, specially prepared for Xu Mumu and them, just waiting for them to return to enjoy. These treats weren’t usually bought.
