Chapter 329 [Wind Chaser 28]
In the early morning, before the sun rises, Wei Ruolai has already set out on the road to work. He is always the first person to arrive at the office and quietly starts his busy day. Day after day, he focuses on sorting out the information of the banks in the Chinese Communist Party’s Soviet Area, often working overtime until late at night, but never complains.
That day, near the end of the get off work day, Shen Tunan invited Wei Ruolai: "Come to my house for a simple meal tonight, and I'll give you a book that will help you improve your professional knowledge." Wei Ruolai happily accepted this unexpected invitation and valuable learning opportunity.
As night fell, Wei Ruolai could not wait to get off work and rushed straight to Shen Tunan's home. As soon as he entered the door, he was attracted by the table full of sumptuous dishes - it turned out that these were all carefully prepared by Su Cishu. She greeted Wei Ruolai with enthusiasm and smile, and expressed her welcome to him.
Everyone sat around the dining table, enjoying the pleasant atmosphere brought by the food. During this time, Shen Tunan handed the promised book to Wei Ruolai and said, "This book is a treasure I have treasured for many years. I hope it can be helpful to you." Wei Ruolai took the book with great excitement and expressed his gratitude.
At the dinner table, Youyou saw Shen Jinzhen staring at Wei Ruolai, so she whispered in Shen Jinzhen's ear, "Do you like Wei Ruolai?"
Shen Jinzhen was startled and quickly explained in a low voice, "No."
On the other side, Xiao Yuer saw Youyou and Shen Jinzhen whispering to each other, so he asked, "Aunt, what are you whispering to Aunt Youyou about? If you want to say it, just say it. Xiao Yuer also wants to listen."
Youyou was about to speak when Shen Jinzhen interrupted her and said quickly, "No, no, Xiaoyuer, eat your meal obediently. Your aunt Youyou and I have something inconvenient to talk about, so I won't say more to you."
"Okay, then Xiao Yuer won't ask anymore. But when does aunt plan to marry uncle?" Xiao Yuer asked naively.
"Uncle?" Shen Jinzhen was shocked.
"That's the one sitting next to you. Mom and dad said that if they train him for a few years, they can get married." Xiao Yuer said.
"Uh, brother, you are really so good to me." Shen Jinzhen said gritting his teeth.
"Isn't it?" Shen Tunan said with a smile.
Youyou also smiled and nodded, saying, "Yes, yes, yes, Jinzhen, you and Wei Ruolai are really a good match."
Wei Ruolai quickly said, "Ms. Shen is very outstanding, and I am not worthy of her."
"Oh, by the way, I remember now. Come on, I heard from the central bank employees that your fiancée is here to see you." Shen Tunan said.
"I guess so. It was a childhood engagement, but I've already sent a letter back to tell my father to cancel the engagement. She came here to live with me, and I'll send her back after a while." Wei Ruolai said.
"Since they have come from far away, you should take good care of them." Shen Tunan said.
"Yes, sir." Wei Ruolai said.
After finishing the meal, Wei Ruolai took the book and said goodbye. Returning to the small attic he rented, Wei Ruolai said to Niu Chunmiao, "Chunmiao, you should go back to your hometown. Shanghai is really not suitable for you."
Niu Chunmiao said nonchalantly, "I won't go back. Either you go back with me, or I will stay in Shanghai."
"You don't know anything in Shanghai, how can you stay there?" Wei Ruolai asked.
"You don't have to worry about that. I can stay here even without you. Look, this is the money I earned today." Niu Chunmiao poured out all the silver coins in his purse.
Wei Ruolai was a little shocked that Niu Chunmiao had made so much money, but he always felt that something was wrong with the silver coins. Wei Ruolai picked up one and blew it, then put it to his ear. It didn't make much sound, so he said, "This is a fake coin. You've been cheated."
"Impossible." Niu Chunmiao didn't quite believe this fact.
Seeing that Niu Chunmiao didn't believe it, Wei Ruolai tried a few more, but they were all fake. He said, "I work at the central bank, and I can tell the fake money apart."
"Damn it! All my huge inventory was cheated away. I was wondering why they paid so readily. It turns out they were all counterfeit money." Niu Chunmiao was very angry.
"Just take it as a lesson." Wei Ruolai said.
"All my money is gone." Niu Chunmiao felt very upset.
"Okay, I'll pay for all your spending recently." Wei Ruolai said.
"Okay, thank you, Gouguzai." Niu Chunmiao said.
