"Brother Xia, you were looking for me?" Lei Hu ran to Xia Ruofei's office and asked with a smile.
Xia Ruofei nodded and said, "Huzi, I'll talk to Pang Hao later. Go to the finance department and get an advance of two hundred thousand yuan. Go back to the city and rent a good nanny car, preferably a Mercedes-Benz or Spyder. Tomorrow, drive with me to Ganjiang Province. I want to pick up a few people."
Renting a car definitely required a deposit. Xia Ruofei didn't know how much the deposit was for such a high-end nanny car, so he asked Lei Hu to bring two hundred thousand yuan first. If it wasn't enough, he would have to contact the company's finance department.
"Okay!" Lei Hu said immediately. Then, he asked curiously, "Brother Xia, who is so important? You're actually going to pick them up personally. "
Xia Ruofei said, "It's a martyr's widow. Her husband was one of my old squad leaders in the army."
Lei Hu heard this and was immediately in awe.
Xia Ruofei then told Lei Hu about the old Captain Luo and Lin Yueh-a. Of course, he skipped over the parts that involved military secrets.
Although Lei Hu was a retired soldier, he didn't have the authority to know.
In fact, if Xia Ruofei hadn't gone through the proper procedures to be recalled to the army, he wouldn't have the authority to know anything about Lone Wolf's top-secret operation.
After Lei Hu heard this, he immediately said, "Brother Xia, I understand! In the future, us veterans will be sister-in-law's family! "
Xia Ruofei nodded happily and said, "Hurry up and prepare! Remember, the nanny car must be in good condition. Uncle Luo is old and his body isn't very good. This trip is a few hundred kilometers! We must ensure the car's comfort. "
"Don't worry, Brother Xia! I'll definitely do it well! "Lei Hu patted his chest and promised.
After Lei Hu left, Xia Ruofei sat in the office for a while and went straight home. The company's operations were very smooth now, and the employees were used to him, the chairman, being a hands-off boss, so it didn't matter whether he was there or not.
When he got home, Huzi's mother was still resting in her room. Xia Ruofei went straight upstairs to his room.
He locked the doors and windows, then took out the Spirit Map Scroll. With a thought, he went directly to the stone room of the Ring-Tu space's Mountain Sea Realm. He was prepared to continue practicing the rune drawing of the "Human" character jade talisman.
Xia Ruofei also knew that he would have a lot of time if he cultivated in the Archean realm.
However, he was even more aware of the principle of 'more haste, less speed'. The drawing of this' Human 'character talisman required one to maintain a high level of concentration. If one practiced continuously for a long time, it might backfire and the effect would not be good.
In addition, the stone room of the Mountain Sea Realm had a jade praying mat that could allow one to concentrate and speed up the recovery of one's spiritual energy. This praying mat was fixed to the stone bed and could not be moved.
Therefore, Xia Ruofei still chose to practice in the Mountain Sea Realm.
In any case, he was not in a hurry to cultivate. He had always held a calm attitude of letting nature take its course.
Xia Ruofei sat on the jade praying mat on the stone bed and practiced for an entire afternoon, but his progress was still relatively slow.
Now, he could barely draw less than half of the runes. Any more and the error rate would greatly increase.
Furthermore, his drawing speed was extremely slow. It was far from meeting his requirements.
Xia Ruofei didn't just want to open the 'Human' character jade talisman and obtain the first three levels of the Great Dao Sutra.
He wanted to practice the rune to the point where it was memorized by heart. It would be best if he could draw it out instinctively in an instant.
This was because only by doing so could he unleash the defensive effects of the jade talisman. Only by doing so could he carve the rune onto a jade carrier and make it into a protective talisman after cultivating the Great Dao Sutra in the future.
Xia Ruofei wanted to give a protective talisman to Ling Qingxue, Huzi's mother, Lin Qiao, and other close relatives and friends.
Although his progress wasn't too fast, Xia Ruofei wasn't in a hurry. He looked at the time and saw that it was almost time for dinner. Therefore, he got off the stone bed and left the space with a thought.
During dinner, Xia Ruofei told Huzi's mother and Lin Qiao that he would be going out again tomorrow.
Lin Qiao complained that Xia Ruofei was now too ambitious. He only knew how to go out every day and even said that he would complain to Ling Qingxue.
Xia Ruofei could only smile bitterly and briefly explain the situation. He also promised that he would only be going out for a day and return on the same day.
After listening to Xia Ruofei's story, Huzi's mother and Lin Qiao couldn't help but sigh. Lin Qiao's attitude suddenly changed 180 degrees and strongly supported Xia Ruofei.
This was because they could empathize with Lin Yueh-a's plight.
Huzi's mother and Lin Qiao had also encountered similar difficulties. Moreover, they were all relatives who sacrificed their lives for the country. This made them feel a natural closeness to Lin Yueh-a whom they had never met before.
After dinner, Xia Ruofei went to the farm for a walk. He just happened to see Lei Hu driving an eighty to ninety percent new Mercedes-Benz Spencer into the farm.
Lei Hu also saw Xia Ruofei and the car stopped beside him.
"Brother Xia, I'm back!" Lei Hu poked his head out of the driver's seat and said, "This kind of high-end nanny car is really not easy to rent. I ran around the whole afternoon before I found a car rental company that does this business. Moreover, they only have one car. Fortunately, it's in good condition!"
Xia Ruofei laughed and said, "Thank you for your hard work! The cafeteria might be out of food. Come to my house to eat! I'll ask Qiao 'er to cook some dumplings for you. "
Lei Hu quickly said, "Brother Xia, it's okay. I already had dinner on the way here! Oh right, the rental for this car is three thousand yuan a day. I'll report to you first. "
Xia Ruofei waved his hand and said, "No problem!"
If it weren't for the fact that this kind of nanny car was rarely used, Xia Ruofei wouldn't have hesitated to buy one. This car was only a few million yuan.
Xia Ruofei asked Lei Hu to park the car and told him to wait at the villa's entrance at six o 'clock sharp the next morning. It was almost four hundred kilometers to Ganjiang Province, so they had to leave early.
At night, Xia Ruofei first accompanied Huzi's mother in the living room to watch TV. After she finished watching the series and went back to her room to rest, he went upstairs to continue practicing the runes on the "human" character jade talisman for a while.
At ten o 'clock, Xia Ruofei left the space and went to bed to rest.
The next morning, Xia Ruofei woke up on time at five-thirty. He washed up and went downstairs.
When he came to the first floor, Xia Ruofei saw that Huzi's mother was already awake.
It turned out that she knew that Xia Ruofei was going to leave early today, so she woke up early to prepare breakfast.
"Godmother, why are you still awake?" Xia Ruofei said, "I'll just eat something on the way!"
Huzi's mother laughed and said, "You can't just eat something casually. Breakfast is the most important thing! Besides, I'm old and don't sleep as much! I woke up at five o 'clock! "
Then, Huzi's mother said, "Quickly sit down and eat! I've made the porridge for a while. It's definitely not hot! "
Xia Ruofei felt warm in his heart. He said, "Thank you, godmother …"
"Silly child … You don't have to be so polite to your godmother." Huzi's mother looked at Xia Ruofei lovingly and said, "Quickly eat! You'll only have the strength to drive when you're full! "
"Ah!"
The breakfast of Huaxia's people was nothing more than porridge, steamed buns, and pumpkin pies that Huzi's mother had just made. It wasn't a delicacy, but Xia Ruofei ate it very happily.
Because there was a taste of family in it.
After eating quickly, Xia Ruofei took a food bag and filled it with steamed buns and pumpkin pies. He also took a box of milk that Huzi's mother had warmed up.
After thinking for a while, Xia Ruofei grabbed a piece of pumpkin pie and put it in his mouth. As he chewed, he said with a lisp, "Godmother, I'm leaving!"
Huzi's mother was very happy to see that Xia Ruofei liked the breakfast she had made. She laughed and said, "Go, go! Be careful on the road! "
"Got it!" Xia Ruofei said.
When he walked out of the villa, the black Mercedes-Benz Sprinter was already parked at the door. Lei Hu was sitting in the driver's seat and playing with his phone.
Xia Ruofei walked over and knocked on the driver's side window. Lei Hu then realized that he had come out. He quickly rolled down the window and called, "Brother Xia!"
Xia Ruofei handed the breakfast in his hand to Lei Hu and said, "You can have breakfast on the side! I'll drive in front! "
"Okay! Thank you, Brother Xia! "Lei Hu quickly reached out to take the breakfast and moved to the passenger's side of the car.
Xia Ruofei opened the door and got in the car. After setting the navigation on his phone, he started the car and left the farm.
According to the navigation, it was a total of 432 kilometers from Sanshan to Luoshan Village where the old Captain Luo lived. That was why Xia Ruofei called Lei Hu. The two of them wouldn't be too tired if they took turns driving. This round trip was nearly 900 kilometers. Although Xia Ruofei's physical strength was extraordinary, there was no need for him to suffer.
However, Lei Hu didn't let Xia Ruofei drive for too long. Not long after he finished his breakfast, he asked to take over with Xia Ruofei. At this time, the car had just entered the highway.
Xia Ruofei didn't stand on ceremony with Lei Hu. When they arrived at the next service area, he changed seats with Lei Hu.
After that, Lei Hu didn't let Xia Ruofei sit in the driver's seat again. Xia Ruofei didn't force him. After all, it wasn't a big deal for a retired special forces soldier to drive a few hundred kilometers. At worst, he could just drive a little longer on the way back.
It took them more than five hours to drive more than 400 kilometers. When it was almost 11: 30 a.m., the two of them finally arrived at Luoshan Village.
The road from the village entrance to the Luo family's house was relatively narrow. A normal car could pass through, but a nanny van was a little difficult. Therefore, Xia Ruofei simply let Lei Hu park the car in the open space at the village entrance. The two of them walked over.
Along the way, they met a lot of villagers. When they saw Xia Ruofei, they greeted him warmly. Last time, the fake reporter incident made Xia Ruofei quite popular in Luoshan Village.
Although Xia Ruofei didn't know who these villagers were, he smiled and greeted them.
Soon, the two of them arrived at the Luo family's house.
"Sister-in-law!" Xia Ruofei knocked on the door and shouted.
Soon, the door opened. However, it wasn't Lin Yueh-a, but Nannan.
"Uncle Xia!" Nannan shouted happily. Then, she turned around and shouted, "Grandpa! Mom! Uncle Xia is here! "
Xia Ruofei smiled and carried Nannan inside. Lin Yueh-a and Uncle Luo also came out.
"Uncle Luo! Sister-in-law! "Xia Ruofei smiled and greeted her. Then, he asked," Is everything ready at home? "
Lin Yueh-a nodded and said, "Ruofei, it must have been hard on you all the way! Come in and have a seat first! I've already prepared lunch. "
Xia Ruofei nodded and said, "Well, that's good! Let's set off after lunch. We'll reach Sanshan in the evening! "
Uncle Luo and Lin Yueh-a warmly welcomed Xia Ruofei and Lei Hu into the house. Then, Lin Yueh-a said, "Ruofei, take a seat first. There are still two dishes left. They'll be ready soon!"
"Okay!"
Xia Ruofei carried Nannan and sat down together. He chatted with Uncle Luo for a while in the living room.
After Xia Ruofei's treatment twice, Uncle Luo's spirit was much better. Nannan was also very happy about Xia Ruofei's arrival. The living room was also filled with laughter.
Soon, Lin Yueh-a prepared lunch. Everyone sat around the living room and ate.
During the meal, Xia Ruofei smiled and asked, "Nannan, will you go to Sanshan with Uncle Xia later?"
Nannan was a little puzzled and asked, "Uncle Xia, why do we have to go to Sanshan? I still have to go to school! The summer vacation is almost over … "
Xia Ruofei smiled and said, "Let's go to Sanshan to study. The school there is very beautiful …"
"Ah?" Nannan revealed a hesitant expression.
Although the little girl was not very sensible, when she heard that she had to go to a foreign place to study and leave her familiar teachers and classmates, she was still a little unwilling.
Xia Ruofei was a little surprised and asked softly, "Sister-in-law, you haven't told Nannan yet?"
Lin Yueh-a smiled bitterly and said, "I told her once, but she didn't seem too willing …"
"Oh …" Xia Ruofei nodded and then smiled at Nannan and said, "Nannan, Mom is going to Sanshan to work, so you have to go to school there too. Do you understand? After you reach Sanshan, you can stay at Uncle Xia's place. Uncle Xia has a very big farm. He has a lot of dogs and planted many fruit trees! When summer comes, the trees will be full of cherries and lychees. You can pick them as you wish … Oh right, Uncle Xia's farm is by the sea. I can bring you to the beach to pick up seashells and go surfing. How about that? "
Xia Ruofei described it vividly. After all, Nannan was only a child. After hearing it, she was immediately moved. However, when she thought of leaving her teachers and classmates, she revealed a hesitant expression.
Xia Ruofei secretly smiled and continued, "There's more! Nannan, you going to Sanshan to study doesn't mean that you won't come back. If you miss your classmates and friends, I'll let Uncle Lei drive you back. How about that? "
"Really?"
"Of course it's real! Uncle is a man. I won't lie to a child. " Xia Ruofei smiled and said, "Oh right, I almost forgot to tell you. There are many uncles on my farm. They are your dad's comrades like me! They can also accompany you to play! "
"Really? There are many of my dad's comrades? "The balance in Nannan's heart finally tilted. She said," Okay then! I promise, Uncle Xia, you can't lie to me! "
"Of course, we can pinky swear!"
"Okay!" Nannan excitedly stretched out her little finger.
Xia Ruofei also cooperated and stretched out his hand.
A childish voice sounded in the central room. "Pinky swear, no change for a hundred years …"
After completing the solemn pinky swear ceremony, Nannan said loudly, "Mom! Let's eat quickly! After eating, we can go to Sanshan! "
