"Well, just tell him that his family found him a girlfriend and he should go home for a blind date! Shicheng isn't far from Beijing. If your brother hasn't found a girlfriend, he'll definitely have to take leave to go home for a blind date; if he has, either explain it clearly in your reply, or say you're too busy with work to go home." Xiao Shan gave Liu Guangtian a suggestion.
Liu Guangtian asked with some concern, "What if my older brother is really busy?"
"You can write to him to get some information out of him, ask him what he's doing, and that way you'll know if he's really busy!" Xiao Shan advised. "But don't ask him directly, you have to be tactful."
Liu Guangtian nodded: "I understand! If my brother really finds a partner in Shicheng, I can finally rest easy."
"Don't be too happy yet! The eldest son usually inherits the family property and takes care of the elderly in his old age." Xiao Shan analyzed for Liu Guangtian, "But your father is really good to your older brother. Even if he finds a partner in Shicheng and doesn't come back, he will probably get a share of the family property, but the responsibility of taking care of the elderly will fall on you."
Upon hearing Xiao Shan's words, Liu Guangtian felt as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over his head.
However, he quickly came to terms with it: "My dad has a high salary, and even if he retires, his pension will be enough to live on, so he basically won't need my money. I might even be able to squeeze some money out of him."
Seeing that Liu Guangtian had come to terms with it, Xiao Shan certainly couldn't bring up the issue of soaring prices in the future to upset him.
Liu Guangtian said impatiently, "Xiaoshan, I'm going back first. I need to talk to my dad about sending a letter to my brother."
When Liu Guangtian returned home, Liu Haizhong was drinking a little wine.
Upon seeing Liu Guangtian return, Liu Haizhong was furious: "That brat is always wandering around aimlessly. He found a proper job but can't even do anything right."
Liu Guangtian was speechless.
However, remembering what he had discussed with Xiao Shan, he smiled and said to Liu Haizhong, "Dad, my brother has been gone for a while now. Should we ask him to come back so he can see you and Mom? That would be a way for him to fulfill his filial duty as a son."
Liu Haizhong paused for a moment, clearly worried about his eldest son.
However, he was very defiant in his words: "Don't mention that brat. Since he dared to leave, he should not come back if he has the guts. Let's see how long he can stay in Shicheng."
Liu Guangtian could naturally tell that his father was not being sincere: "Dad, I have a way to get my brother to come back! My brother is not young anymore, it's time for him to find a partner! Uncle San is even planning to find a partner for my brother Jiecheng."
“My brother can’t be the only older single man in the compound, can he? It wouldn’t look good if word got out. If you tell him about this, he’ll definitely get anxious. We’ll just say that the family has found him a partner and he can go home for a blind date. Anyway, Shicheng isn’t far away, and he can go back in a few days.”
Liu Haizhong remained defiant: "What's the point of writing a letter! Since he dares to leave, let him find a partner himself. If he can't, he can just stay single! There are plenty of single people these days."
Seeing this, Liu Guangtian stopped talking and prepared to write a letter to Liu Guangqi himself.
We'll tell his dad after Liu Guangqi replies.
It's another weekend.
Early in the morning, Xiao Shan went straight to the trust store with two hundred yuan in his pocket.
Upon arriving at the store, Xiao Shan went straight to the staff and asked, "Comrade, do you have any used bicycles?"
The service staff member was a tall, thin, middle-aged man: "Comrade, you've come at the perfect time! We just happen to have some today! Bicycle tickets are hard to come by, but used bikes don't require tickets. These days, we sell every used bicycle that comes in."
"We have five cars in the store right now, you can choose one."
Xiao Shan followed the staff to the bicycle shed at the back, where five relatively new bicycles were lined up in a row.
The service staff said to Xiao Shan, "Comrade, this time the goods are good, all around 90% new."
Xiao Shan carefully examined the row of bicycles and picked out the newest one.
"This one is 130!" the service staff said with a smile as they looked at the bicycle Xiao Shan had picked out.
Xiao Shan took out his money, counted out 130, and handed it to the service staff.
The service staff issued a note for the trust store, and Xiaoshan needs to take the note to the police station to register.
After completing the formalities, Xiao Shan began riding his bicycle all over Beijing.
When I arrived at Quanjude, I ordered half a roast duck to go.
Soon, one lotus leaf bag and two oil paper bags were packed up.
Xiao Shan leisurely rode his bicycle back to the courtyard.
It was noon, and Yan Bugui was watering the flowers in the yard.
When Yan Bugui saw Xiao Shan riding in on a bicycle, his eyes almost popped out of his head: "Oh my, Xiao Shan, you really bought one too."
Hearing the commotion, the people in the courtyard immediately gathered around.
Xiao Shan laughed and said, "Haha, didn't I say back then that I'd buy it once Third Uncle bought it? We can't steal the limelight from the other big shots."
"Xiaoshan, your bicycle looks much newer than Uncle San's! I happen to have something to do at the end of this month, can I borrow it for a ride?" Someone had their eye on Xiaoshan's bicycle.
Others who shared this idea also looked at Xiao Shan, waiting for his reply.
Xiao Shan chuckled: "No problem! But my bike is relatively new, so the rental fee might be a bit more expensive than Uncle San's bike. It costs me 70 cents per ride. If you need to borrow a bike, just come over!"
After Xiao Shan said this, the families who wanted to take advantage of the situation shut up completely.
"Xiaoshan, it's perfect that we both have bicycles now. Let's go fishing with Uncle San after get off work tomorrow afternoon! It's been a long time since we went fishing together." Yan Bugui said with a smile, seeing that Xiaoshan had shut up the person who wanted to take advantage of him.
Xiao Shan nodded: "That's fine, but time is a bit tight! But bring some mugwort, we can burn it to repel mosquitoes, and night fishing will be quite fun."
Yan Bugui wholeheartedly agreed: "That's absolutely right!"
Xiao Shan bought his third bicycle, making it the fourth one including Xu Damao's. The novelty had worn off for everyone in the courtyard.
Hearing that you have to pay to ride a bicycle in Xiaoshan, I completely gave up the idea of joining in the fun.
Xiao Shan returned home and parked his bicycle.
Then I heated up two steamed buns and ate half a roast duck to solve the lunch problem.
The next day, Xiao Shan rode his bicycle to work.
As soon as he arrived at the welding workshop, before he even started working, his old acquaintance Xiong Dingxi appeared at the workshop entrance.

Seeing Xiong Dingxi walking towards him, Xiao Shan knew that he was probably here to see him.
So Xiao Shan went up to him and asked with a smile, "Brother Xiong, what brings you here?"
Xiong Dingxi looked at Xiao Shan with a somewhat complicated expression.
Back then, they could only temporarily transfer him to the External Liaison Department. Now that Xiaoshan is a Level 5 welder, it's impossible for anyone, not even Luo Zhengqiu, the director of the welding workshop, to agree to temporarily transfer him to the External Liaison Department again, let alone Xiaoshan himself.
Xiong Dingxi looked at Xiao Shan and said, "Xiao Shan, I've come to see you this time because I really have something I'd like you to help me with!"
"Brother Xiong, just let me know if you need anything. I'll do my best to help!"
Xiong Dingxi said to Xiao Shan, "It's like this, now that the quota has been restored, the steel mill's special canteen will also be opened, so I would like to ask you to help me get some wild game during your break!"
"Don't worry, Xiaoshan, you'll definitely get your money!"
Xiao Shan laughed and said, "That's easy! I'll go out of town every two weeks and get you three to five wild game each time!"
"Thank you so much, Koyama!"
For the next period of time, Xiaoshan delivered three to five wild game animals to the steel rolling mill every two weeks.
In August, just as in the future video, Qin Huairu gave birth to a daughter.
According to Jia Dongxu's last words, his daughter's name was Huaihua (槐花).
Liu Guangqi never returned, nor did he reply to Liu Guangtian's letter.
That day, Xiao Shan got off work and went home. After dinner, he was chatting with his friends in a chat group.
Suddenly, a familiar notification sounded in the chat group.
"Ding! A new member has joined the chat group. Group owner, please check!"
"Ding! Huang Rong from The Legend of the Condor Heroes has joined the chat group!"
"Ding! Liu Maoxing from 'Cooking Master Boy' has joined the chat group!"
Upon seeing a new member join the group, everyone in the chat group immediately shifted the topic to the newcomer.
First and foremost, we welcomed the newcomer and showed them the group announcement.
The world of MasterChef Junior, Juxialou.
Liu Maoxing, who was only twelve years old at the time, was stunned after reading the group announcement.
If what this group announcement says is true, then I've encountered an incredible opportunity this time!
In different worlds, with different people, does that mean I can meet many different culinary masters?
Liu Maoxing: "Greetings, seniors! I am Liu Maoxing. Please feel free to guide me!"
While Liu Maoxing was checking the group announcement, the members of the chat group had already finished watching Liu Maoxing's future video.
The group members were quite interested in the glowing dishes that Liu Maoxing would showcase in his future videos.
They all responded to Liu Maoxing's greeting.
Looking at the enthusiastic group members, Liu Maoxing was happy but also a little confused.
Why are these people being so enthusiastic towards me?
In the end, Zhang Chulan couldn't help but ask Liu Maoxing about the glowing dish.
Liu Maoxing then realized that these people had taken a liking to his cooking skills.
For Liu Maoxing, who firmly believes that food brings happiness, his group members are naturally very willing to cook for him if they want to taste the food he makes.
Liu Maoxing: "I'll go cook something for everyone in a bit! But how did you all know I can cook? I didn't mention it at all!"
Zhang Chulan: "Little Master, you can go watch the future video in the chat group, and you'll know how we found out about your cooking skills!"
Following Zhang Chulan's instructions, Liu Maoxing curiously clicked on the group files related to himself in the group share.
Then I used the one-click viewing function directly.
After watching the entire future video, Liu Maoxing's first thought was to save his mother, Master Abe.
Liu Maoxing: "@Zhang Chulan, senior, is everything you said in the future video true?"
Zhang Chulan: "We're all group members, no need to be so polite, just call me Chulan! Without external interference, everything that happens in the video will happen in your world!"
Liu Maoxing: "Brother Chu Lan, is there any way to save my mother?"
Zhang Chulan: "Little Master, Master Abei died because Shao An absconded with all of Juxialou's assets. He worked desperately to recover the losses, and in the end, he was exhausted! So if you can stop this from happening, Master Abei might not have died!"
Liu Maoxing: "Thank you, Brother Chu Lan, I understand! I'll go cook for everyone right away, please wait a moment!"
Ying Zheng: "Little Master, I have some ingredients here, take them!"
After saying that, Ying Zheng directly sent Liu Maoxing a red envelope containing food ingredients.
After receiving Ying Zheng's red envelope, Liu Maoxing was startled when he saw the ingredients that suddenly appeared in front of him.
Although the ingredients provided by Ying Zheng were not rare, they were all of superior quality.
That's perfectly normal; how could the quality of the food that Ying Zheng ate be substandard?
After the initial surprise, Liu Maoxing carried the pile of ingredients to the kitchen.
Chef Abe, who happened to be in the kitchen, was also taken aback when he saw the pile of ingredients that Liu Maoxing brought in.
When Liu Maoxing told her that this was given to him by a friend from another world whom he had just met, Master Abe's first reaction was whether her son had a fever.
However, seeing Liu Maoxing's confident demeanor, Master Abe chose to believe him for the time being.
After helping Liu Maoxing turn these ingredients into dishes, Master Abe watched as Liu Maoxing sent the dishes away in the form of red envelopes.
Watching the dishes disappear before his eyes, Chef Abe finally believed that what Liu Maoxing said was true!
My son has really encountered an incredible opportunity this time!
So Master Abe immediately instructed Liu Maoxing not to tell anyone about this, not even his sister Liu Keling!
Liu Maoxing naturally nodded to indicate that he understood.
He then told Chef Abe that Shao An had joined the world of dark cuisine and was eyeing Juxialou.
Upon hearing this, Master Abe's expression changed slightly. He then indicated that he understood and told Liu Maoxing not to alarm Shao'an.
At the same time, the members of the chat group also received red envelopes from Liu Maoxing.
After tasting the dishes sent by Liu Maoxing, everyone was impressed by their deliciousness.
Even Huang Rong, who joined the group with Liu Maoxing and has excellent cooking skills, felt that she couldn't make a dish that tasted like this.
Huang Rong: "Wow! Little Master, the dishes you made are absolutely delicious!"
Ying Zheng: "That's right, that's right, this is the first time I've ever tasted such delicious food!"
Yue Buqun: "I never imagined that ordinary ingredients could be made into such a delicious dish. It's truly unbelievable!"
