Chapter 1015: Money
The three of them arrived at the town bus station before eight in the morning.
Liu Jingxue looked around but didn't see anyone walking towards them.
It seems that Liu Jianjun's companions have not arrived yet.
"Second brother, what time did you agree to meet someone here?" Liu Jingxue approached Liu Jianjun and asked in a low voice.
"Nine o'clock," Liu Jianjun replied. He raised his hand and looked at his watch. "It's not even eight o'clock yet. It's still early."
She glanced at Liu Jingxue next to her and said, "Little sister, you should go back first. It's not good for him to see you."
"Yes, Xiaoxue, go back quickly.
Don’t let other people know about our relationship.” Mr. Zou also urged Liu Jingxue to leave.
"According to the habits of soldiers in the army, he will probably be here soon.
Little sister, you'd better not stay here, and leave quickly."
Liu Jingxue knew what they were thinking, so she didn't insist on staying and gave in to their wishes.
"Okay, then I'll leave first."
Liu Jingxue picked up the flatbed cart beside her. Mr. Zou would not need it later, so she had to take it back.
At least I can use it to move things later, so it’s not a pity to just throw it away.
Liu Jingxue took out something that she had prepared long ago from her pocket and stuffed it into Mr. Zou's pocket when he was not paying attention.
"Grandpa Zou, I'm going back first.
You must take care of yourself. We'll see you later when we have the chance.
If possible, write to me."
"Okay, okay," Mr. Zou responded as he reached into his pocket to see what the kid had stuffed into his pocket.
Liu Jingxue took a few quick steps away from Mr. Zou and waved goodbye to Liu Jianjun.
“Second brother, when you go out to work in the future, you must protect yourself.
Find a way to stay connected with me.”
In public, Liu Jingxue couldn't say that she was going out to carry out a mission, so she could only change her words.
She believed that Liu Jianjun was smart enough to understand what she meant.
Liu Jianjun also waved at her, "I understand, I will be careful.
You take care of yourself and take care of them too.”
Seeing that Mr. Zou took out the handkerchief that she had stuffed into his hand, Liu Jingxue quickly quickened her pace and ran away.
After taking out the handkerchief, he felt something wrapped inside, so Mr. Zou quickly opened it to see what was inside.
When he saw that there was a stack of money inside, Mr. Zou was stunned, and then said,
"Why did this kid give me so much money? I can't use it."
He quickly looked up and wanted to call Liu Jingxue to ask her to take the money back.
But when he looked up, Liu Jingxue had already run far away.
"Xiaoxue, come back and take the money back." Mr. Zou shouted loudly, asking Liu Jingxue to turn back.
Liu Jingxue waved at him from a distance, "Grandpa, keep it for yourself.
This is your money.”
Liu Jingxue had just arrived to deliver something to the cowshed, and several elders gave her all the money they had.
From time to time, money was stuffed into the packages sent from Mr. Zhang.
Some of the money was for ginseng and ginseng wine to be sent to Liu Jingxue, and some of it was for her to buy things for Mr. Zou.
Every time Mr. Zhang sent money, Mr. Zou gave it all to Liu Jingxue.
Although Liu Jingxue was responsible for purchasing all the daily necessities for the cowshed at the beginning, Zhou Mingxuan came later and they also shared some of the costs, so she did spend some money.
But the food, oil, salt, sauce and vinegar they used were all produced in the space and were free of charge. Liu Jingxue felt embarrassed to charge them money.
Although Mr. Zou joined the army and had logistical supplies when he returned this time, he still had to carry some money with him.
Although he will get his salary, it is just now and it will take at least a month before he gets his salary.
Liu Jingxue knew that if she gave the money to Grandpa Zou early on, he would definitely not accept it, so she stuffed it into his pocket when they parted so that he could not return it.
But after a few years, it’s hard to calculate the cost.
Liu Jingxue knew that if she gave too much, Grandpa Zou would feel psychologically burdened, so she only prepared a little over a hundred yuan, wrapped it in a handkerchief and stuffed it into his pocket.
Seeing Liu Jingxue leaving without looking back and unable to catch up with her at his own speed, Mr. Zou gave orders to Liu Jianjun who was standing beside him.
"Jianjun, go chase Xiaoxue and return the money to her."
As he said this, he rewrapped the handkerchief and handed it to Liu Jianjun beside him, asking him to help him return it.
Liu Jianjun waved his hands quickly, "Grandpa Zou, I'm here to protect you. My companions are not here, so I dare not run away and leave you here alone."
“No one knows me here, so what’s the danger?
It is more important for you to help me return the money to Xiaoxue."
Liu Jianjun shook his head frantically, “Grandpa Zou, I dare not leave your side.
Besides, you know my little sister's abilities. If she is determined to give it to you, I can't catch up with her at my speed.
So you should keep the money."
"If we keep arguing about this and let too many people see us and remember her, that would be bad."
Mr. Zou was helpless. "Okay, I'll just have to take it first and find a way to return it to her later."
He sighed, "Grandpa Zou, I owe Xiaoxue so much!"
If it weren't for Xiaoxue, he would have died long ago and would not have waited until today.
Even this opportunity to join the army was earned for him by Xiaoxue.
"Grandpa Zou, you can't say that.
Xiaoxue treats you as her grandfather, and you treat Xiaoxue as your own granddaughter. As a family, there is no debt or no debt.
Xiaoxue is being nice to you, but it's not what she deserves."
Liu Jianjun knew that although Zou Lao would not be able to show his power in public, his power and status would be unimaginable when he returned this time to take charge of the newly established secret force.
If he stands behind me, even if my ability is exposed in the future and someone has feelings for her, with Mr. Zou protecting her, ordinary people would not dare to reach out to me.
How could Liu Jianjun miss such a good opportunity to do good things for Liu Jingxue?
Although this is somewhat utilitarian and goes against his usual principles, for the sake of his younger sister's safety, it doesn't matter if it's a bit utilitarian.
Mr. Zou was very pleased with Liu Jianjun's words.
"Yes, we are one family and we don't have different opinions.
It is only natural for Xiaoxue to be nice to me, and it is even more natural for me to be nice to Xiaoxue."
He made up his mind to take good care of his body and hold the knife tightly so that he could support Xiaoxue in the future.
He glanced at Liu Jianjun next to him.
He also needs to teach this child well so that he can take over and be Xiaoxue's backup in the future.
As for Lao Zhang, I have to have a good chat with him too.
Who else can support Xiaoxue? Old Zou couldn't help but narrow his eyes and think about it.
Thinking of Liu Weihua, Zou asked Liu Jianjun.
"Jianjun, which side did your father choose?"
Mr. Zou also knew that Liu Weihua was asked to choose between two places.
"Dad finally chose the north."
Mr. Zou nodded when he heard this and said, "It's better to choose the north, so it will be convenient for traveling in the future.
As for your eldest brother, if there is a chance in the future, let him come to the north as well.
It's impossible for the whole family to be in the north and leave him alone in the south, with no father to love him and no mother to care for him."
After Liu Jingxue ran away, she entered an empty alley. After noticing that there was no one around, she used the invisibility technique to become invisible and returned to the bus station.
The time was fine, since she wasn't going to work today anyway and planned to wait until the others left before going back.
Anyway, it only takes her a few minutes to fly back. If she goes back too early, it will arouse suspicion.
