Reborn in the 80s: She Rewrites Life with Radiance
Chapter 136: Return to the City

Chapter 136: Chapter 136: Return to the City

Ever since resolving the issue with Wu Liang.

These few days, the Ye Family has been living exceptionally comfortably.

Business people like to start with good fortune, so the shops here open on the eighth.

So Brother Gu and the others arrived in the county town on the seventh.

On the evening of the seventh, Brother Gu hosted and invited the Gu Family and Ye Family to a big dinner at a restaurant.

After this meal, Gu Yi and the others would return to the military the next day.

Since everyone had things to do the next day, the men didn’t drink much tonight.

The next morning, Gu’s mother brought a bunch of things to the Ye Family.

Ye Fu and Ye Qian went to the shop, leaving Ye’s mother with three people at home.

Gu’s mother put the things for Gu Yi and the others aside and brought some things for the Ye Family’s parents.

"Ye Hao and Yiyi are leaving today, so I brought some cured meat and some homemade side dishes. Yiyi likes these, and these cigarettes and alcohol and cured meat are for the in-laws."

"In-laws, why are you being so polite, giving things to the two kids shows your care for them, why do we need these."

Ye’s mother said as she tried to put the things back into Gu’s mother’s basket.

"Oh, in-laws, don’t do that. Originally, Yiyi’s brothers were supposed to come, but they went to the shop today, so I brought these. Just a little token, please keep them."

There’s no reason to take back things once they’ve been given.

Ye’s mother let Ye Hao go with her to buy groceries, leaving Gu Yi and Gu’s mother at home.

Ye’s mother knew that Gu’s mother came today because she couldn’t bear to see Gu Yi leave.

So she left them to have a good chat at home.

"Yiyi, take this money. It’s not like being at home outside; everything costs money. Take it so you can have some flexibility."

When Gu’s mother saw Ye’s mother and the others had gone out, she pulled Gu Yi aside, took a handful of money from her pocket, and handed it to Gu Yi.

Parents always want to give their children the best, and even though Gu Yi said she had money last time, Gu’s mother still felt she was struggling outside.

"Mom, didn’t I tell you last time? I don’t need money, please keep it."

Gu Yi really didn’t lack money now, and she didn’t know how to tell her mom.

"It doesn’t matter if you don’t need it, just take it since I brought it."

"Then why don’t you take it back."

"Why don’t you listen, child?"

Gu Yi was helpless against Gu’s mother.

"Mom, wait a moment."

After speaking, she went to get her passbook.

"Mom, take a look at the number on my passbook."

Gu Yi handed the passbook to her mom.

The passbook contained dividends from Li Yitian, and dividends sent over by Liang Yesheng before New Year’s Day.

Gu’s mother was illiterate, but she recognized zeros.

She looked at the passbook, not recognizing the numbers in front, but seeing many zeros at the end.

"Mom, there’s over 900,000 on here. Keep your money for you and dad to buy food, okay? I’ll use this money to make more, and when you and dad are old, you’ll live with me."

As Gu Yi spoke, she was thinking of earning more for the elders in her family and for her own children.

"How do you have so much money, is it all from your shop?"

Gu’s mother was shocked when she heard Gu Yi had so much money. Her brothers’ businesses were doing well, but they didn’t have as much money as Gu Yi. Could it be that Gu Yi’s new shop was making that much money?

"No, Mom, I also have collaborations with others, and this money is all from those collaborations."

Gu Yi knew it would be difficult to explain this clearly to her mom, so she just wanted to show her mom that she had money.

After Gu Yi did this, Gu’s mother didn’t insist on giving her money anymore.

The two started chatting about other things and eventually talked about children.

"Ye Hao isn’t young anymore. You both should hurry up and have a child. I can see your mother-in-law, although she doesn’t say it, is thinking about it."

Gu’s mother wished Gu Yi would have a child soon. It had been several years since they got married, and they had no kids, which might make people gossip.

Also, the Ye Family’s parents were nice. In other families, this kind of situation could cause arguments.

"I know, I’m taking traditional medicine to regulate my body. Once I’m done with that, we’ll definitely have one. Don’t worry, Ye Hao is handling my mother-in-law."

Gu Yi had previously told her mom she had a cold constitution, so when Gu Yi said she was taking traditional medicine, Gu’s mother wasn’t worried.

"Ye Hao is really nice. When you’re out, it’s just the two of you. Make sure to get along well, and don’t ignore each other when fighting. Over time, if you keep ignoring each other, even if you don’t separate, your relationship won’t improve."

"I know, Mom, rest assured."

Gu’s mother stayed until the afternoon before going home.

She couldn’t bear to see Gu Yi leave, as she had only seen her a few times this visit, and now she was leaving again.

She didn’t know when they would return this year.

After Gu’s mother left, Gu Yi selected some of the things her mom brought and put them in her suitcase.

Ye’s mother also packed a bunch of food and supplies for them to take.

But she had made a lot of cured meat and pickled fish at the military base.

So she didn’t plan on taking those with her.

She only took the small dishes her mom made, as she could make them herself, but her mom’s were much tastier.

In the evening, Gu Yi and Ye Hao started the journey back to the military base.

When Gu’s mother was about to sleep, she told Gu’s father about Gu Yi’s passbook.

"Hey, Dad, what good deeds did Yiyi do in her past life? She just casually collaborates with people and makes so much money."

Gu’s mother couldn’t understand why her daughter seemed to have some divine help, making money in everything she did, and even guiding her brothers into successful businesses.

"The girl is smart, kind-hearted, and has good luck, so she earns more."

Gu’s father thought his daughter was excellent in every way.

"But don’t tell anyone about Yiyi having so much money. Otherwise, others will think of Yiyi whenever they have trouble, which will only cause her problems."

Gu’s father thought for a moment and reminded Gu’s mother.

"I know how to handle this. I’m just talking to you about it. I won’t say a word to anyone else, not even in front of our sons."

Gu’s mother wasn’t foolish. Even having ten thousand yuan was a big deal nowadays, let alone knowing about Gu Yi’s wealth could cause trouble.

Meanwhile, after arriving in B City the next day, Gu Yi and Ye Hao went directly to the military base.

Maybe it was because of the winter, but even without anyone staying there for ten days, it wasn’t too dirty.

However, Gu Yi decided to tidy up a bit.

Gu Yi and Ye Hao quickly cleaned the house and then took a rest; traveling was really exhausting.

They slept blissfully until they heard someone knocking on the door.

"Ye Hao, go see who’s at the door."

After saying this, Gu Yi turned around and continued sleeping.

"Alright, you keep sleeping, I’ll go check."

Ye Hao said as he got up and put on his clothes to go out.

He returned a short while later, bringing the chill with him.

"Who was it?"

"It was Sister-in-law Ye, saying we shouldn’t cook dinner, and to go eat at her place."

"That’s perfect, saves me the trouble of cooking. I’m too tired. What time is it now?"

Gu Yi felt grateful for having reliable friends, knowing Sister-in-law Ye understood their exhaustion from traveling and came to invite them for dinner.

"It’s five o’clock."

Ye Hao looked at his watch and said.

"Then we should get up. We’ll eat and come back to rest; eating ready-made food is great."

Gu Yi stretched lazily, smiling like a cat that just ate a canary, feeling thoroughly content.
