After the last dish of the banquet was served, Chen Yuan walked up to Xia Xinyu, who was wearing a white flower on her chest, grabbed her hand, and quietly led her to the main hall: "I have something to give you."

"What, what happened?"

Seeing Chen Yuan so serious and so sudden, Xia Xinyu also started to get nervous.

"After the banquet, we must keep Niu Qiong here no matter what." After proposing this, Chen Yuan also gave a direct solution, "Tell aunt that he brought too many gifts and hopes to keep him for lunch."

"..." Xia Xinyu didn't know what Chen Yuan wanted to do, whether it was about paying back the money. However, his eyes were so firm at the moment that even if she disagreed a little, she had to choose to support him, "Okay."

"That's good."

Chen Yuan nodded, turned and left.

Suddenly, Xia Xinyu grabbed his hand.

And, hold it tightly.

"Xinyu?" Turning his head, Chen Yuan was a little confused.

"Don't go... I'm scared."

Xia Xinyu shook her head, looked at Chen Yuan uneasily, and said pleadingly.

"I will be back in the afternoon, don't worry." Chen Yuan comforted.

"Don't go...don't go."

Xia Xinyu continued to shake her head, rarely showing such stubbornness.

In this way, you are not supporting yourself.

There was light in her eyes, but if I left now, the light would dissipate.

Despite this, Chen Yuan still had to do it.

He took out the lucky sachet from his pocket, placed it in Xia Xinyu's palm, and then wrapped it with his fist just like she did to herself.

"I can't be with you at the burial, but I'm always here." Chen Yuan wanted to give Xia Xinyu complete sense of security, but he had things he had to do.

And there are unspeakable reasons for what he is going to do.

"You... should come back soon..."

"Yes, I will."

Just like that, Chen Yuan left in a hurry.

And Xia Xinyu could only treat this lucky sachet as if it were him and hold it close to her heart.

"Let's go, I'll give Mom and Dad a final send-off."

After the young and middle-aged relatives lifted the coffin together, the aunt held Xia Xinyu's hand and took her to see her parents off for the last time...

……

"Eat? But I have to go back to the city."

After the funeral, Xia Fang called Niu Qiong down alone, and the two of them sat at the table in the main hall and drank tea.

"It doesn't matter if we wait a little longer. We haven't seen each other for so long, we should have a meal together." Aunt said with a smile.

Xinyu said that Niu Qiong gave 2,000 yuan, which was too much, and he was her father's best friend, so he should keep some. Xia Fang also thought it was right, but she felt that she should be the host, not Xinyu.

After all, Brother Niu Qiong is also his friend.

"Then I'll trouble you." Niu Qiong touched his head embarrassedly and said with a smile, "Look at what happened, hehe."

"Where is Brother Niu Qiong now?" Xia Fang asked.

Niu Qiong took a sip of tea and replied, "I worked on projects in Xingsha for a few years. Although it is a big city, it is not my home after all. So, I bought a few houses in the urban area of ​​Shaoxiang in the past two years."

"Several sets? Look how rich he is, not covering up at all." Xia Fang said jokingly.

"Haha, no, no." Niu Qiong waved his hand. "I want to keep my father with me, but my wife can't live with him, so I bought him a walk-up apartment on the first floor. My wife and I live in the previous house, and I have another one for my son as a wedding house."

"How old is your son? He's using it as a wedding house?" Xia Fang asked in surprise.

"No matter how old he is, he has to get married. Just prepare it for him in advance so he won't be panicked when the time comes." Niu Qiong laughed, acting very slick and eloquent.

Or rather, he has always been this kind of person.

When he was with his brother, his brother was always the dull one, while he was responsible for socializing and communicating with others.

It’s best if people don’t change.

"So, you're in college?" Xia Fang asked curiously.

"Senior year, I'm going to take the college entrance exam this year."

"So how are the results?"

"Well... it's OK, but it's possible that she can get into a key university." After Niu Qiong finished speaking, he asked curiously, "Is Xinyu going to take the college entrance examination as well?"

"He's one grade younger than your son. He'll be a senior next year."

"When I was little, I thought they were the same age."

"Brother Niu Qiong, you remembered it wrongly. You had a child a year earlier than my brother. At that time, you told us that you should catch up as soon as possible."

"Haha, I have a bad memory." Niu Qiong nodded quickly, took a sip of tea, savored it for a while, and said casually, "I also told my son to apply to Xiahai University of Science and Technology. When he is in the same city as my best friend's daughter, we can take care of each other."

"Just find me when the time comes, I'll take care of it."

Xia Fang naturally avoided the topic, but also showed enthusiasm.

The two of them discussed the past and chatted about each other's present.

But in 'Our Present Together', my aunt felt that the topic was a little too advanced.

I don’t know if it’s an illusion, but he talks too much…

"Uncle Niu." At this moment, Xia Xinyu, who was packing outside, came in. Niu Qiong, who looked very worried, said, "Please move the car. There is a downhill slope ahead. It is safer to park there. You won't get scratched."

"Oh, okay. I'll go. Come back later. Fangfang, you drink first."

Niu Qiong didn't think twice, just took the keys, went out, got in the car, and drove to a downhill spot not far away that they had designated and was extremely suitable for fishing.

Xinyu is indeed a good girl.

She is so beautiful, has a good personality, and has excellent grades.

Such a girl is not someone that ordinary people can marry.

Not to mention my son who couldn't even fart for a long time.

If only Xinyu could meet him, they could chat more and go to the same university in the future...

Eh? Is it that boy?

Niu Qiong saw Chen Yuan just beside the slope.

Are you going to give yourself the order to reverse?

Just as he was thinking this, the boy, who was holding something in his hand, tapped on his car window with his fingers.

Puzzled, he lowered the window.

"Open the door." The boy said calmly. Niu Qiong thought he had stepped on something, so he opened the door quickly.

Then, the boy suddenly sat in his passenger seat, closed the door and raised the window.

what?

What is this kid trying to do? And the paper in his hand...

"Three years ago on October 10 at 8:16, you received a transfer of 43 yuan. Is that clear?"

As if he was interrogating someone, the boy suddenly spoke.

And this sentence has gone beyond interrogation.

This is judgment!

Niu Qiong's face turned red instantly, his neck felt hot, and he was so scared that it felt like needles were pricking him in the back.

He stood there stiffly, not knowing what to say.

What can I say?!

That afternoon, Xinyu's father returned the money to herself.

But what time is it? Who remembers?

And he couldn't remember whether it was the 8th or the 6th, he just knew it was one of these two days.

Since the boy said so, it must be number 8!

It's over, it's over.

The reason why he dared to use this deceptive language before was because his father neither sent him a message nor transferred money, but transferred it directly using a card.

Moreover, his family members definitely don’t know about it because he told himself: Lao Niu, don’t tell my wife and children!

Also, in fact, he didn't use 100,000 at that time.

It was about 80,000 yuan, and the medical insurance reimbursed 30% for out-of-town medical treatment, so the total was more than 50,000 yuan. This was also why he was able to return the money to himself quickly, after all, he only spent half of it, and he just needed to make up the rest.

When I was paying it back, I really couldn't find my IOU.

But her father didn't say anything, because he didn't even want to write a promissory note at the beginning, it was he who insisted.

So when he found out that he had lost the IOU, he returned it without any doubt.

One day later, Niu Qiong found the IOU in the drawer.

And then……

I heard about this matter.

He had never thought of blackmailing Xia Xinyu, and had never had such an idea!

But if I could have a daughter-in-law as good as Xinyu...

"I got Xia Xinyu's household registration booklet, his father's ID card, and death record, and I checked the bank statement. This is the proof that he is paying you back."

Handing the paper to Niu Qiong, Chen Yuan's tone remained calm, as if he would not be angry at all.

"..." The corners of Niu Qiong's mouth twitched stiffly, and everyone was dumbfounded. They just looked at the bank flow and didn't dare to touch it.
