Chapter 202 Time has advanced Bai Fengyu pouted, but she wasn't annoyed: "I'll just follow your instructions, why are you yelling~" Ning Weidong was speechless. His original intention was to ask Bai Fengyu what she thought. This time, he bought a house for Shi Xiaonan. Compared to Shi Xiaonan, Bai Fengyu had been with Ning Weidong earlier. Ning Weidong thought about giving her some benefits so that he wouldn't feel resentful when he found out later. As the old saying goes, what is worrying is not the lack of wealth but the inequality of distribution. Bai Fengyu and Shi Xiaonan have similar identities and status, and have lived in the same courtyard for several years, so they have been competing with each other openly and secretly. The fate of both women was not smooth, and they finally ended up with Ning Weidong. Originally Bai Fengyu was content, but you have to know that Ning Weidong bought Shi Xiaonan a house with its own entrance and yard right away, which would make anyone feel unbalanced. Ning Weidong was certainly not afraid of her throwing a tantrum, but there was no need to make himself uncomfortable. Before Ning Weidong traveled through time, he understood that if he wanted the people around him to serve him well, whether they were men or women, he had to strike a balance.
If you don't pay attention to small things, they may lead to big things. Ning Weidong said, "You can apply for a correspondence course at a technical secondary school. I will help you find a teacher. Go to study once every Sunday and try to pass the exam next year." When Bai Fengyu heard about studying, she was slightly surprised: "Let me? Study?" Ning Weidong glared at her and said, "Are you still not happy?" Bai Fengyu twisted her fingers around the corner of her clothes and said anxiously, "I'm afraid I won't be able to learn well. I haven't read a book for more than ten years." Ning Weidong said, "What are you afraid of? I didn't ask you to take the college entrance exam. I just asked you to take a correspondence course in a technical secondary school." Bai Fengyu didn't dare to make any more excuses. Ning Weidong continued: "When you get your diploma, I'll find someone to get you a formal position..." Before Ning Weidong could finish, Bai Fengyu's eyes lit up and she blurted out, "Really!" She has been working in the neighborhood committee for the past few months and has truly felt the difference between having a regular job and not having a regular job. Ning Weidong said: "How can I lie to you? Now that I have a position, it will be easy to find a way to transfer to the street." Bai Fengyu was overjoyed. She didn't care about opening the windows and doors in the hot summer. She hugged Ning Weidong and gave him a kiss: "Weidong, you are so nice~" At this moment, Bai Fengyu was really moved. She was a smart person and understood the value of Ning Weidong's promise, which provided her with a guarantee for the rest of her life. If Bai Fengyu could really get a job and be transferred to work in the street area, she would have nothing to worry about. Even if Ning Weidong gets married in the future and cuts off contact with her, her life will still be guaranteed. Ning Weidong smiled with satisfaction and patted her on the butt: "Don't be happy. You can get a job and be transferred to the street, but the prerequisite is that you can pass the secondary technical school correspondence course for me. If you can't pass it, everything will be in vain." Bai Fengyu was in high spirits at this time, and no longer had any fear of difficulties: "Don't worry, I was no worse than Fengqin in my studies when I was young. She was able to get into university, but I can't even learn to get through a technical secondary school~" Ning Weidong smiled, very satisfied with Bai Fengyu's spirit and state.
After a while, Bai Fengyu returned home. Bai Fengqin was cooking the second pot of dumplings and immediately noticed that Bai Fengyu was not in a good mood. She asked, "Sister, what's wrong with you?" Bai Fengyu did not hide it and told Ning Weidong about what happened just now. Finally, she said, "Fengqin, do you think the correspondence course for technical secondary school is difficult? Can I pass it?" Bai Fengqin felt jealous for a moment and thought that Brother Weidong was really considerate. If she could change it, she would rather give up the opportunity to go to university, and take the correspondence examination for a technical secondary school, and stay with Brother Weidong... Unfortunately, there is no such thing. Bai Fengqin was filled with mixed feelings, but she concealed her emotions on her face, lowering her head and looking at the pot: "How would I know? But since Brother Weidong asked you to take the exam, he must have his reasons. It's right to listen to him." Bai Fengyu said "hmm". In fact, she just asked casually and didn't expect Bai Fengqin to give any answer. Unlike Shi Xiaonan, who has certain accomplishments in his field and is ambitious, Bai Fengyu has no ambition and no long-term plans. She is more like an ordinary person, living one day at a time, and her trust in Ning Weidong is even more blind. "Oh, it's bubbling!" Bai Fengyu suddenly cried out, and quickly took a ladle to pour some cold water into the pot of dumplings to suppress the white foam that was about to come out, muttering: "Silly girl, what are you thinking about~" Bai Fengqin was distracted just now, and when she came to her senses, she quickly stood aside. Bai Fengyu took her place, took the colander and pushed it slightly on the water surface, waited for the water to boil again, and fished out the dumplings: "Let's eat quickly~" Bai Fengqin responded and had already set the table. They both don't eat much, so one plate of dumplings is enough for them. Bai Fengqin blew on it, took a bite, swallowed it, and said, "Oh, by the way, sister, didn't Brother Weidong say last time that he would treat us to roast duck? When are we going? I should report in in half a month." Bai Fengyu said, "Greedy cat, eating dumplings won't stop you from talking. If you want to ask something, go ask him directly. I'm embarrassed." Bai Fengqin pouted and muttered softly: "Just ask, I'll go later." Bai Fengyu said, "That's great. Go get the dishes back and I'll wash them together." "Let's go!" Bai Fengqin muttered again and hurriedly put the dumplings into her mouth. But at this moment, Aunt Lu came in from outside and asked as she walked: "Feng Yu, are you home~" Bai Fengyu responded immediately and stood up to greet her: "I'm here, I'm here~ Aunt Lu, please come in and sit down." Aunt Lu smiled and said, "Oh, the two girls are eating dumplings~" Bai Fengyu said, "It's vegetarian stuffing, not very oily, give me two to try." Aunt Lu waved her hands and said, "No, I just finished my meal and can't eat anymore. By the way, you have a good relationship with Xiao Shizi, do you know where she is now?" "Shi Xiaonan?" Bai Fengyu was surprised: "Why are you looking for her? I haven't seen her since she moved out." Although they are said to have a good relationship, in fact, Bai Fengyu and Shi Xiaonan were only close on the surface. Aunt Lu slapped her thigh and said, "I am asking for your Aunt Wang~" Bai Fengyu asked, "Didn't Shi Xiaonan divorce Wang Kai?"
Aunt Lu said, "They are divorced, but the original couple is better off together. But when I asked the troupe, I found out that Xiao Shizi was no longer there, and no one knew where she had gone." Bai Fengyu suddenly realized: "Is that so~ Aunt Lu, I really don't know, why don't you go to Master Yin's house across the street and ask, didn't their daughter-in-law say that she is related to Shi Xiaonan~" Aunt Lu waved her hand: "I've gone, and I don't know." After the incident, Aunt Lu didn't stay long. Bai Fengyu sent her to the door and came back. Bai Fengqin pouted and said, "What were you doing earlier? Now that your wife has run away, you're worried." Bai Fengyu glared at her and said, "You are showing off again. Just eat your food." He returned to his chair and pondered: "Where can Shi Xiaonan go? She's divorced and doesn't want to work anymore..." Bai Fengqin said: "If you ask me, she has most likely found another partner. Otherwise, just forget about the divorce. There is no need to quit her job. Wasn't it because of her job that she wanted to divorce in the first place~" Bai Fengyu nodded: "Yes~" But she didn't know that the 'next buyer' they were talking about was her brother Weidong. As for Aunt Lu, she asked several families in the yard but did not come to find Ning Weidong. Ning Weidong is a grown man, and it is inappropriate for you to find a divorced woman and ask Ning Weidong what is going on. After eating the dumplings, Ning Weidong waved his hand and threw all the plates and bowls on the table. He knew that Bai Fengyu would come over to get them later. After dinner, I made a pot of tea. It's exactly seven o'clock. Turn on the radio and listen to the news. He was just killing time, but a piece of news came from the radio that made Ning Weidong shudder: According to our news, at 17:20 last night, a conflict broke out in Kabul... Ning Weidong was stunned for a moment, thinking he had heard it wrong. In his memory, it seemed like another month or two would pass. The reason why he remembered it so clearly was because he had spent some time studying this period of history before he traveled through time. The action in Afhan is generally recognized as a key event in the decline of Speedlink. Ning Weidong is very clear about this history. First, Taraki overthrew Daoud with the support of Moscow. Then Taraki split internally, and the second-in-command Amin overthrew Taraki. The action broadcast on the radio at this time was initiated by Amin and eventually became the fuse of the war. "Is it early~?" Ning Weidong leaned on the sofa next to the radio, took out a cigarette from his pocket and lit it absentmindedly. He was not sure whether the early arrival of this event was due to the butterfly effect caused by his time travel or some other reason. However, Ning Weidong only hesitated for a moment and did not dwell on this. Although there were some changes in the specific time, the general trend of the world's development did not show any significant changes.
When Ning Weidong came to his senses, the radio was already broadcasting other news. After all, a positive change happening in a foreign country cannot be reported extensively in China. Moreover, at that time, the whole world did not expect that this would be the fuse for the Speed Union Action, and one of the important reasons that led to the end of the Speed Union behemoth. Ning Weidong took a deep breath and thought to himself that it seemed that he needed to speed up the connection between Jianshe and Speedlink. With the outbreak of war, the Speed Alliance will soon be mired in the quagmire of war in this city known as the graveyard of empires. Coupled with domestic corruption and inefficiency, as well as the trend of international oil prices, Sulian's currently seemingly good economy will plummet, making the situation even worse. And this is exactly Ning Weidong's opportunity... Ning Weidong's thoughts were scattered and he was just thinking about it when Bai Fengqin came in from outside. The door of the room was open, with only a mosquito net hanging on it. Bai Fengqin called out "Brother Weidong" and walked in through the curtain: "Are you done eating? I'll take the dishes back and wash them." Ning Weidong collected his thoughts, looked towards the door, and said with a smile: "Fengqin, thank you, the dumplings today are quite fresh." Bai Fengqin was a little embarrassed: "My sister took care of all of them, so I just helped her." As he spoke, he picked up the dishes on the table, but did not rush to leave. I had prepared myself mentally before coming here, so I was very open now: "Brother Weidong, last time you said you would treat me to roast duck, when are we going? I have never eaten it in my life~" Although it is called Beijing Roast Duck, in fact, most people in Beijing may not have had the pleasure of eating it. After all, people's living standards were still limited in that era. Let alone eating roast duck of this level, even if they went to an ordinary restaurant, an average family would have to spend a lot of money. Ning Weidong said: "If you hadn't mentioned it, I would have really forgotten it~" Bai Fengqin pouted, feeling a little aggrieved. It wasn't that she was greedy for the opportunity, but that Ning Weidong didn't care about her at all. In fact, Bai Fengqin knew very well that Ning Weidong and she did not have any important relationship, but even though she knew it clearly, she still felt unwilling. Ning Weidong was teasing her, laughing: "Greedy girl, I'm teasing you~ How could you really forget your roast duck?" Bai Fengqin was stunned, her heart was beating fast and her cheeks flushed. She said "hate" and ran away with the plate. When she got home, Bai Fengyu was washing dishes by the sink. She heard footsteps but didn't turn around. She said to herself, "I was gone for so long and actually went to ask about roast duck~" Bai Fengqin hummed and put the plate aside. Bai Fengyu smiled and said, "What did he say?" Bai Fengqin snorted, "He said he didn't forget." Seeing this, Bai Fengyu guessed that Ning Weidong was teasing her and made her angry, but she did not comfort her. Anyway, Bai Fengqin would just turn her face away whenever it came to Ning Weidong. Reaching out to wash the dishes she had just brought back, Bai Fengyu wiped her hands and asked, "Fengqin, you are a good student, help me with some advice. Weidong wants me to take a correspondence exam for a technical secondary school. What subjects do you think I should study?" Bai Fengqin blinked and said, "How would I know? However, sister, in your situation, you should choose what you are best at. As long as you pass the exam, it doesn't matter what major you choose." Bai Fengyu thought about it and it made sense. Anyway, what she wanted was that technical secondary school diploma.
Bai Fengqin watched her crying and sighed in her heart. It would be great if I could stay with Ning Weidong. I would be happy even if she had to trade her university education for a technical secondary school. …… A few days passed and it was almost the middle of August. The day before yesterday, Sunday, Ning Weidong kept his promise and took Bai Fengyu and her sister to Quanjude to eat roast duck. There were three of them, a duck and two plates of stir-fried dishes to take out, and Bai Fengqin was shocked when they paid the bill. She knew that Quanjude’s duck was expensive, but she didn’t have a specific idea. Even though I was mentally prepared today, I was still shocked by this meal. For an average worker, this meal would cost him a week’s wages. This is when they only ate and didn't drink. When Ning Weidong brought the two of them out, he naturally wouldn't let them drink. Ning Weidong had no interest in drinking without anyone to drink with. Otherwise, a bottle of high-quality wine would cost several dollars. Finally, they finished eating. Bai Fengqin was probably too full, and it was obvious that her stomach was bulging than usual. Bai Fengyu also ate a lot, but she was much more restrained than Bai Fengqin. Ning Weidong smiled and said to Bai Fengqin: "I love it. I'll bring you here next time I'm on vacation." Bai Fengqin waved her hands quickly: "Forget it, I'll just try this duck once, I don't want to eat it for another time. It smells really good, but it's too expensive!" Bai Fengyu also nodded in agreement. Although she knew that Ning Weidong was rich, she didn't think he would do this. After finishing the meal, Bai Fengqin began to prepare to report to Handong University. Although school starts on September 1st, if you are going there in an unfamiliar place for the first time, you should definitely go there a few days in advance. In this era, it is not popular for parents to send their children to college. Once they go to college, they are considered adults. Moreover, the situation in the past two years is special, and many college freshmen are in their twenties or thirties. The train ticket has been bought. Ning Weidong asked someone to buy a sleeper berth for the train on August 25th. The train will take one day and one night to arrive in Jingzhou City, Handong Province. The speed of trains in this era is really hard to describe. During the remaining five or six days, Bai Fengyu and Bai Fengqin both felt melancholy. The sisters had lived and eaten together for almost a year, but finally they had to separate. On the other side, Ning Weidong had no time to pay attention to them. After returning to the capital, Natasha was finally discharged from the hospital after having been in it for more than half a month. Although I haven't fully recovered yet, all I have left is to rest at home. In the evening, after get off work, Ning Weidong went directly to the company's courtyard.
Natasha and Liu Guangzhi temporarily live in the back house in the front yard, while their child lives with his grandparents at his grandmother's house. Ning Weidong came in and didn't see Liu Guangzhi. Natasha should be in the room, so it was not convenient for him to go in. Came to the Intermediate Court and met with Zhao Ruyi. Qin Huairu had already prepared dinner, and now that Natasha and her husband were here, she had to cook an extra portion. While eating, Zhao Ruyu said, "Natasha moved in this afternoon. I went to see her and she told me that she wanted to meet you." Ning Weidong picked up a piece of fried potato shreds with chopsticks and stuffed it into his mouth. He chewed a few bites and swallowed it, saying, "It seems like they lost their patience first." Zhao Ruyi said: "They are probably anxious for their children to go to school." Liu Guangzhi and Natasha's daughter does not have a Beijing hukou, so she would not be able to enroll in school if she came back this time. If they asked Liu Yun and his wife to help find someone, the problem could probably be solved, but with Natasha being discharged from the hospital, their family had to face the fact that Ning Weidong had gone to such great lengths to bring their family back from Heilongjiang Province. Before, because of Natasha's physical condition, they could temporarily stop thinking about it. Now that her condition has stabilized and she has been discharged from the hospital, it would be a bit self-deception if they didn't think about it anymore. So, I took this opportunity to talk to Ning Weidong and Zhao Ruyu about the whole matter. Ning Weidong nodded: "It's time." More than half a month ago, after Amin launched the positive change, Moscow reacted very strongly. According to the current situation, in the world before Ning Weidong traveled through time, the war that was not scheduled to break out until the end of the year may very likely break out two to three months earlier. Ning Weidong said: "Let's go over and take a look after dinner." Half an hour later, Ning Weidong and Zhao Ruyu arrived at the front yard together. It was only half past six and it was not yet dark. Natasha and Liu Guangzhi had just finished their meal. Liu Guangzhi was sitting at the door, washing clothes in a large basin. Natasha sat on a bamboo chair nearby and watched with a smile on her face. Because her skin is naturally fair, she doesn't look pale as if she has just recovered from a serious illness. "Brother Liu, sister-in-law~" Ning Weidong came out through the Chuihua Gate and came up to the two of them. Liu Guangzhi looked up, stood up quickly, called out, "Weidong", and then called Zhao Ruyu "Manager Zhao". He is now considered an employee under Zhao Ruyu, so he must not be treated disrespectfully. Ning Weidong argued from Liu Yun's perspective. (End of this chapter)
