“He’s just an officer. Why would I say anything bad about him? If I had the time, I’d just sleep.”
Sun Guilan also knew that she was in the wrong.
After he made the initial arrangement for Wang Jiajia, he didn’t touch his phone again and didn’t say anything else.
“Then what should we do about this? Your brother’s job is gone. As his brother, you can’t just stand by and watch, right?”
Guo Ningyue looked up at Sun Guilan, munching on melon seeds as she thought to herself,
‘Here it comes, here it comes. Here comes the guilt tripping.’
“So what if I’m your brother? Do I still have to care about how you eat, drink, and poop?”
“We’re family, so we have to take care of each other.” Sun Guilan said.
“You’re right, a family really needs to help each other,” Lin Yi said, “But my surname is Lin.
“Then why are you still helping Jiajia with her work?!’
“Her surname is Wang, not Zhao. ‘
Puff!
Guo Ningyue could not help but laugh out loud.
Brother, you’re awesome!
Counterattack!
Zhao Quanfu’s expression was conflicted. She couldn’t stand it anymore and wanted Lin Yi to help. After all, they were family.
However, she was stopped by Wang Cuiping.
She wouldn’t interfere in such a trivial matter, so she naturally wouldn’t let Zhao Quanfu interfere either.
This woman often came out every day to show off, as if she was superior to others.
Now, everything she had was gone. Wang Cuiping wanted to see if she could still show off in the future.
Lin Yi didn’t care too much about this and simply went to sleep.
Meanwhile, Wang Cuiping and Zhao Quanli went to the kitchen and started working on lunch.
They decided not to care about anything else.
They could do whatever they wanted.
After lunch, the family of four went back in the afternoon.
The orphanage could not be left alone for a long time, so they visited in the day and left by nightfall every year.
On the second day of the Lunar New Year, the four of them went on another visit.
They went to visit Wang Cuiping’s family and stayed for a day before returning at night.
Compared to the city, the countryside was more festive.
Some unique traditions had slowly dissipated over time in the city, and could only be witnessed here.
These traditions were very local.
On the third day of the Lunar New Year, the group went to some relatives’ houses in Yangcheng and visited all the families they had planned to.
With that, the celebrations were officially over.
Of course, it was inevitable that the various relatives flaunted their wealth.
This was also the reason why Wang Cuiping brought Lin Yi out.
Lin Yi lived up to everyone’s expectations and successfully showed off.
Not only did he successfully show off, but others also repeatedly praised the way he kept a low profile.
Lin Yi almost started to believe that he was genuinely a low-profile person.
After completing the visitation activities, the New Year was almost over.
Moreover, certain companies had already returned to work.
This highlighted that the holiday period was coming to a close and it was time to return to business.
On the fourth day of the new year, Lin Yi went to Wu Zhaoyou’s place. He had helped him so much, so he naturally had to go and visit the latter during the new year.
Over the next few days, from the fifth day of the Lunar New Year to the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, other than chatting with Ji Qingyan and the other women, Lin Yi focused all his attention on the relocation of the orphanage.
The most important tasks were the choice of location and the available schools.
Through Wu Zhaoyou, Lin Yi contacted the best elementary schools, middle schools, and high schools in Yangcheng.
Because of Wu Zhaoyou and Lin Yi’s straightforwardness, every principal was given a million yuan in red packets. This matter was thus handled very smoothly.
Other than that, he also contacted a public kindergarten. With the influence of money, the issue with the children’s’ school registrations was resolved in just three days.
He just had to let them know when they would start attending the schools.
After the problem regarding the schooling was settled, the only thing left was to decide on the location of the orphanage.
They intended to find a suitable place in the city so that they could better integrate into society.
Otherwise, they might start to feel inferior.
“The major companies should all be restarting work one after another now, right?” Lin Yi asked during breakfast on the eighth day of the Lunar New Year.
“They often start on the eighth day of the Lunar New Year,” Guo Ningyue said.
“I was talking to Sister-in-law yesterday. Her company seems to be starting work today. So is your Lingyun Group.”
“You guys are the same, right?” Lin Yi asked, “You don’t look like you have any intention of going to work.”
“I can still take two additional days off,” Guo Ningyue said. “On the fifth and sixth day of the new year, I helped Sister Liu with her work for two days. She will cover me for the eighth and ninth day of the new year.”
Lin Yi nodded. Substitutes were very common in the workplace, and it wasn’t a big deal.
After dinner, Lin Yi and Wu Feiyue put on their clothes and prepared to leave.
“Brother, where are you two going?” Guo Ningyue asked.
“I’m going out for a walk,” Lin Yi said casually.
Because this area was about to be redeveloped, Lin Yi planned to handle everything before they left.
Now that the problem of school had been resolved, the only thing left was the problem regarding the location of the orphanage.
Everything else was minor and he would leave it to his parents to solve it themselves.
“Sounds good. I want to go too.”
“Then let’s go.”
Lin Yi didn’t say anything. The more the merrier.
The three of them drove to the urban part of Yangcheng.
He didn’t have any purpose. He just wanted to wander around the streets.
He still had to look around the area and choose a suitable place to move to.
Although Wu Zhaoyou could do this, it was very much like buying a house.
What others recommended was never as good as a personal inspection.
“Brother, you’re right in the city center. It might be a little difficult to choose the right place,” Guo Ningyue said.
“Unless you buy a school and turn it into an orphanage.”
“That’s true, but the urban part of Yangcheng is a place where every inch of land is worth a lot of money. The developers have occupied all the large plots of land, so it’ll be tricky to find a suitable place,” Wu Feiyue said.
“We will have to find a way to resolve this matter. If we leave our mother do this, she will struggle.’
“That’s true, but we’ve been looking for more than an hour and haven’t found a suitable spot,” Guo Ningyue said.
“If we drive any further, we’ll almost reach the suburbs.”
“Actually, finding a place to live is quite easily done, but there are no playgrounds nearby.” Wu Feiyue said.
“I saw a few kindergartens by the road just now. The sizes and locations are not bad, but they are not for sale. It’s a pity.”
Suddenly, Lin Yi’s eyes lit up. “Little Yue, the place you used to live in was an apartment, right?”
‘Yes, the kind with dozens of units in each building,” Guo Ningyue said.
“But our mother said that it’s not safe for a girl like me to stay there, so she asked me to move out.”
Guo Ningyue looked at Lin Yi. “Brother, can you not bear to see your cute sister renting a house outside, so you want to buy me a big house too?”
“Actually, I’m a simple person and am not so greedy. You don’t have to buy me a villa. A small flat that measures about 200 square meters will do.”
“How can you say something like that? Have you been bewitched?” Lin Yi said..
