Spoiled By the Young Master After Reborn In the 80s-Chapter 809: Eight hundred and seven, saving money

"Fill out the amount you need to deposit here, in capital letters, and also here, with the same figure." Luo Shu informed Lin Helian of the details to be filled in one by one.

Lin Helian quickly finished filling out two forms and, smiling, pointed towards the counter, "I’m going to queue up."

"Alright!" Luo Shu nodded in response. ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm

Lin Helian joined the queue and soon completed the remittance and deposit transactions. Holding the two receipts that represented a stack of cash in hand, she felt a great sense of relief. This should prevent any theft, right?

"Luo Shu, let’s go to the mall. I want to buy Yhan Cheng the pair of shoes we saw the other day and also get him a new outfit," Lin Helian said. As for Luo Shu’s gift, she planned to buy it the day after tomorrow when she would go out with Yhan Zhan. Having no money before meant there was no need to think about these things because it was futile. But now, finally, she could buy some decent New Year goods and have a good celebration.

Upon arriving at the mall, Lin Helian searched for a while at the shoe counter where they had been previously, but she couldn’t find the pair of shoes. She turned to a nearby attendant, "Comrade! The black cotton shoes that were here last time, where are they? Why are they gone?"

"They’ve been sold," the clerk said indifferently. In this era, being a clerk in a department store was a prestigious job, and one couldn’t get it without a fair amount of knowledge.

"They’ve been sold? Are there any similar shoes available?" Lin Helian looked disappointed.

The clerk shook their head, "No, that pair was a promotional item. There was only that one pair."

Lin Helian sighed in disappointment and turned to Luo Shu, "Let’s go." It wasn’t that she hadn’t liked any other shoes; it’s just that the rest seemed too expensive. Considering that Yhan Cheng was still growing and his feet were growing quickly, it would be a waste to buy something too pricey if he couldn’t wear them next winter.

After looking through several shoe counters and finding none that were either affordable or the right size, Lin Helian ended up only buying a promotional cotton-padded jacket.

Winter nights always came early. By the time Lin Helian and Luo Shu returned to the Guard District, the sky was already dark.

Just as they got off the vehicle, Luo Shu saw the tall figure of Lu Hanmo and, with a slight smile, walked over.

"Tired?" Lu Hanmo reached out to tuck a stray lock of hair behind Luo Shu’s forehead and held her hand, walking slowly toward home with her.

Looking at the receding figures of the two, Jin Zhihong said with an envious expression, "The regiment commander and his wife really have a great relationship."

"Mm-hmm!" Lin Helian nodded in agreement. It was her first time seeing a couple so deeply in love.

"Sister-in-Law, let me help you carry these things home," Jin Zhihong offered as he took out a pile of stuff from the car’s trunk.

"Thank you very much," Lin Helian expressed her gratitude. She indeed had bought quite a few things today and really couldn’t carry them all by herself.

Just as she picked up the items from the ground, she saw two figures, one big and one small, walking towards them, and a happy smile immediately spread across Lin Helian’s face.

"Mommy!" Yhan Cheng, upon seeing Lin Helian, quickly let go of Yhan Zhan’s hand and ran over quickly. On seeing the pile of things on the ground, his eyes lit up, "Mommy, are all these things for me to eat?"

Lin Helian smiled and nodded, "But you’ll have to wait until New Year to eat them. Mommy bought you a new outfit, let’s try it on when we get home." This time, she had bought some New Year goods, as well as some seeds and fruit.

"That’s great! I’ll have new clothes to wear," Yhan Cheng cheered happily. He was finally like other children, having new clothes to wear. New Year’s is really wonderful!

Lin Helian exchanged a glance with Yhan Zhan, a hint of guilt in their eyes. They were determined never to let Xiao Cheng suffer again.

"Xiao Jin, thank you for your hard work! You can go back, I’ll carry these things," Yhan Zhan said to Jin Zhihong.

"Chief, Sister-in-Law, then I’ll be going back," Jin Zhihong smiled at the both of them and started running towards the dormitory.

Yhan Zhan picked up the items from the ground and said to the big and the small one beside him, "Let’s go home!"

Lin Helian nodded with a smile, holding Yhan Cheng’s hand and following Yhan Zhan.

"I’ve heard about what happened today; you must have been really anxious, right?" Yhan Zhan said, as he had been in a meeting at the time and had been unable to come back.

"It’s a good thing it was found," Lin Helian sighed in relief. If it hadn’t been found, she would’ve been distraught.

"Centurion Qian has returned, he came to apologize to me," said Yhan Zhan. It wasn’t really Centurion Qian’s fault, after all.

Lin Helian sighed, "The money has been found anyway, I don’t want to dwell on this matter anymore." She didn’t blame Centurion Qian and his wife but was determined not to forgive Qian Qiaoqin.

"It’s a shame; Centurion Qian was going to be commended for his contributions, but now it has to be set off against this incident," Yhan Zhan said somewhat regretfully. For a Guard Member, honor is extremely important.

In the hospital, the atmosphere in the ward where Guo Li was staying was very heavy.

Originally, the birth of Guo Li’s son should have been a cause for celebration, but the incident with Qian Qiaoqin had cast a shadow over everyone’s mood in the ward.

"Qiaoqin, go back tomorrow," Qian Dongnan said somberly. Upon completing his mission and returning to the Guard District, he had learned about the incident, making him angry, ashamed, and wishing he could just disappear. How could his sister do such a thing? He wondered how his comrades would look at him from now on.

"Brother! I’m sorry! I know I was wrong!" Qian Qiaoqin apologized in tears. She truly regretted her actions but it was too late for regrets now.

"Stay at home tonight, and leave first thing tomorrow morning," Qian Dongnan turned away, not wanting to deal with Qian Qiaoqin anymore. After such an incident, he truly did not know how he could forgive her.

He had fought hard on the outside, finally making a commendable achievement, only for her to undo it all. Above all, he really didn’t know how to face everyone else afterwards.

"Brother, Sister-in-Law, I’m sorry!" Qian Qiaoqin bowed to Qian Dongnan and Guo Li, then ran off crying. In her school days, she did not understand the saying "One step wrong can make a lifelong regret," but now she deeply grasped its meaning.

With the New Year approaching, the Guard District was awash with the festive atmosphere.

The soldiers started to clean up, and pasted Spring Festival couplets. Although they could not reunite with their families, celebrating the New Year in the Guard was a unique experience and also quite lively.

Luo Zheng returned to Jiangcheng and went straight to the Guard District.

After calling Luo Shu at the duty room and registering, he entered the Guard District. This wasn’t his first visit, so he didn’t need anyone to guide him.

Upon reaching Luo Shu’s home, he saw that the courtyard gate was not closed.

Luo Zheng stepped in and called out, "Sis!"
