Chapter 1148: Chapter 1148: I Heard You’re Unemployed at Ho Now?
He quickly opened the letter and read it from start to finish as fast as he could. Chang Jiansheng’s eyes beca moist.
Big Brother is still alive.
Although we don’t know where he is for now, as long as he’s alive, it’s enough.
After that, Chang Jiansheng handed the letter to the eager Li Fen beside him. After Li Fen finished reading it, tears fell like raindrops. She had been worried about her son for more than a year, and now she finally had news. How could she not be excited?
Seeing the two finish reading the letter, He Shan retrieved a slightly larger envelope from her bag and handed it to Chang Jiansheng, whispering, “Big Brother Jianhua entrusted with money to give to you. He said you should use it first, and he’ll find a way later.”
Chang Jiansheng received the envelope filled with money.
Then he handed the envelope to his mother, Li Fen.
Li Fen hadn’t seen so much money in a long ti.
Her son had already ntioned in the letter that he entrusted his friend, He Shan, to bring them three thousand yuan.
Three thousand yuan.
In the past, she wouldn’t have considered it a lot. Although she didn’t agree with her husband and Ning Wanru’s actions, Li Fen had to admit that because of the two of them, she had lived a life of luxury.
Back then, she would carry a few thousand yuan when she went to play mahjong with others.
But now, her pockets were completely empty even before the end of the month, and sotis she even had to delay the water and electricity bills.
It had been a long ti since she had seen so much money.
Li Fen looked up and realized that this girl had also taken a risk to find her family. Only then did she notice the guest was still standing. She quickly told Chang Jiansheng, “Jiansheng, quickly get a chair for Miss He to sit and rest for a while. I’ll go make her so tea.”
The house was really too small, and with her two ntally ill daughters and her bedridden husband, truthfully, the sll inside wasn’t good. Even if she cleaned thoroughly, it wasn’t enough.
So it’s impossible to invite guests inside.
The outside was actually better than the inside. As she spoke, she went to pour water for He Shan, but He Shan quickly stopped her, “Aunt, there’s no need. I’ve finished what Big Brother Jianhua asked to do, and I have so errands, so I need to go back.”
“Miss He, it’s already this late. If you’re not busy, please stay for a al.” Li Fen still warmly insisted.
He Shan looked at the woman’s graying temples in front of her. From certain aspects, she could see that this woman once lived a life of privilege, yet she hadn’t expected her to end up like this.
Truly, the world is unpredictable…
He Shan knew that this eagerness to have her stay was to learn more about her eldest son. She learned just now that Gu Jianhua is now called Chang Jianhua.
He Shan still maintained a cheerful smile and said, “Aunt, I know you actually want to hear news about Big Brother Jianhua. But I must tell you, what you want to know, Big Brother Jianhua has already told you in the letter. I really don’t know anything else.”
Li Fen’s face showed a look of disappointnt.
Chang Jiansheng quickly took his mother’s arm and whispered, “Mom, don’t make it hard for Miss He. She’s already taken a risk to deliver the letter and money.”
He Shan gave a slight smile to Chang Jiansheng, nodding and saying, “That’s also what Big Brother Jianhua thought. He’s currently without a fixed ho, and even if you knew more, it wouldn’t matter. Besides, I don’t know much more than you do.”
Then she looked at Li Fen, “Aunt, I’ll be off now. I’ll visit you when I have ti.”
“Let walk you out,” Li Fen quickly said.
“Mom, you rest. I’ll see Miss He out,” Chang Jiansheng suggested.
After Li Fen expressed her gratitude to He Shan nurous tis, she didn’t persist. She sat back on the small stool and read the letter again.
The envelope with money was already in her pocket.
Three thousand yuan would be enough for her to live on for a long, long ti.
Her heart finally settled. As long as her eldest son was alive, there was always hope.
From now on, they would all behave, and she believed that the Gu Family would really let them go.
As Chang Jiansheng saw He Shan off at the door, he whispered, “Thank you for today. I hope it won’t cause you any trouble.”
He Shan blinked playfully with a smile, “Don’t worry, it won’t cause trouble.” She glanced around, frowning slightly, “Have you been living here all this ti?”
Chang Jiansheng nodded, “Yes, we’ve always been here.”
“I heard you’re currently unemployed?”
Chang Jiansheng’s eyes dimd as he looked at the woman before him. The harsh reality of the world had matured him completely and made him more reserved. The Chang Jiansheng now was not the cheerful and smiley young man he once was.
He silently mused that this woman nad He Shan seed to know quite a bit.
Yet he still nodded, “Yes.”
He didn’t say more than that.
He Shan glanced at him, speaking gently, “You don’t need to be wary of . I’m a good friend of Big Brother Jianhua. He has helped , and I won’t harm you. I’ve co back to invest, so if you’re interested, you can co help .”
“Invest?” Chang Jiansheng asked, “What do you plan to invest in?”
He Shan looked towards the entrance of the alley and shook her head, “I haven’t decided yet, but my grandparents overseas have always had a deep affection for this land. Given the current good policies and many opportunities, there’s considerable idle family capital. My grandparents hope to do sothing for their birth and nurturing holand…”
“You’re an overseas Chinese?” Gu Jiansheng looked deeply at He Shan, casually comnting, “But your Imperial Capital dialect is so good, one would think you grew up there.”
“I did grow up here, but I went to study at my grandparents’ place for a few years afterward.”
He Shan stated openly.
Chang Jiansheng slightly pulled up the corner of his mouth but didn’t continue the conversation. Instead, he thanked her, “Thank you for the opportunity, but right now I still need to take care of my parents, so I don’t have any plans at the mont.”
“No problem, when you want to do sothing, you can call .” With that, He Shan took a postcard from her handbag and handed it to Chang Jiansheng with a slight smile, “I’ll head off now.”
“Take care…” Chang Jiansheng said quietly while holding the business card.
The alley wasn’t very long. After a minute, He Shan’s figure disappeared at the alley’s entrance.
Chang Jiansheng looked at the business card in his hand, where several lines of golden text were clearly printed.
He hadn’t expected that this young woman turned out to be the general manager of an investnt company.
How did Big Brother get to know such a person?
This woman’s Imperial Capital dialect was excellent, but her voice was a bit hoarse and rough, which didn’t quite match her smile and appearance.
