Chapter 251 The enemy is about to arrive at the battlefield
It was different from the snow two nights ago.

It snowed heavily on New Year's Eve.

Although it stopped for a while in the early morning, the snowflakes began to fall again in the early morning.

When Li Luo and Ying Chanxi hurriedly got up from the bed and tiptoed downstairs, it was already snowing heavily outside.

A thin layer of snow and water also accumulated on the ground.

Chen Lu just went back and forth to the next door, and there was a layer of snow on his head.

"Have you seen Xixi?" Chen Lu asked the people in the room curiously, "Why don't I see her in the bedroom?"

Before the others reacted, Ying Zhicheng, as a father, frowned immediately: "She's not here? I got up at around ten o'clock, and I haven't seen her come down since then."

"Did you get up early and go out to play?" Li Xuexian asked, "Just give me a call."

Li Xiang, who had already returned to the sofa in the living room, twitched his lips and said nothing.

Ying Zhicheng took out his cell phone and called his daughter.

As a result, before the call was connected, I heard the phone ringing from the stairwell.

So everyone looked over there and saw Li Luo and Ying Chanxi walking out from there.

"Dad, why are you calling me?"

"Lulu went to your bedroom but didn't find you." Ying Zhicheng watched his daughter follow Li Luo downstairs and immediately asked, "When did you come to look for Li Luo?"

"It was, it was this morning." Ying Chanxi blinked guiltily.

"Didn't you just go upstairs to call Li Luo? Why didn't you see Xixi?" the aunt asked her grandson.

"I didn't go in." Li Xiang scratched his head, "I just knocked on the door and said something, and when I heard him answer, I came down."

After hearing what Li Xiang said, everyone stopped caring about it, and Lin Xiuhong asked everyone to sit down and prepare to eat.

After lunch, Ying Chanxi saw the snowy scene outside and excitedly pulled Li Luo out to seize the remaining time alone.

Li Luo accompanied her walking through the streets, with snowflakes all over her head, scarf, and clothes.

From time to time, Ying Chanxi would pick up a handful of snowflakes from the bushes on the roadside, hold them in his palm, and throw them on Li Luo's head.

Li Luo was ambushed by her several times, and finally he decided not to endure it any longer. He simply grabbed a handful of snowflakes, grabbed Ying Chanxi's collar, and stuffed them into her clothes.

"Ahhh! Li Luo!"

Ying Chanxi shook his body quickly to shake off the snowflakes from his clothes, then his face turned red with anger and he chased after Li Luo to beat him.

Thanks to the boxing skills she had practiced for about half a year, she was able to defeat Li Luo so badly that he kept begging for mercy.

It’s a pity that happy times are always short-lived.

The first day of the Spring Festival was quickly spent in such fun.

Early in the morning of the second day of the Chinese New Year, Li Luo got in the car with his parents and headed to his grandparents' house.

Ying Chanxi had no choice but to stay at home alone, holding his mobile phone and continuing to read the novel written by Li Luo, looking for the plot involving Shen Dongdong to comfort himself.

However, when reading the comment section, Ying Chanxi discovered that a reader who had originally been very supportive of Jiang Mingyue actually posted a message yesterday announcing his betrayal, and bluntly stated that childhood sweetheart was the best.

This made Ying Chanxi somewhat happier, and he even wrote down this person's nickname, hoping to see him continue to support Shen Dongdong in the future.

At his grandfather's house, as soon as Li Luo got out of the car, Lin Xiufeng, who heard the noise, came up to him with a smile.

He took out a big red envelope from his trouser pocket and stuffed it directly into Li Luo's arms.

Li Luo pinched the thickness and was a little surprised: "Uncle, are you so generous this time?"

"Thanks to you." Lin Xiufeng hugged Li Luo's neck affectionately, patted his chest, leaned close to his ear and whispered, "I've made nearly ten thousand yuan by selling fried rice for more than half a month."

"That's great." Li Luo praised, and accepted the red envelope given by his uncle with peace of mind, then said with a smile, "So have you found a partner? Grandpa and grandma are urging you to do it, right?"

"You're still saying this in front of me?" Lin Xiufeng glared at him. "I've already given you a big red envelope, but it still can't stop you from talking? When we eat today, say more good things to me."

"Know it."

After Li Luo's family arrived, Lin Xiufeng breathed a sigh of relief, because the topic at the dinner table today was obviously focused on Li Luo.

Lin Xiuhong, in particular, was probably too depressed at the Li family's place, so after arriving at her mother's house, she couldn't wait to share the good news with her parents at the dinner table.

Li Luo scored 27th in the school midterm exam, 15th in the monthly exam, and 17th in the final exam. He must have been admitted to Qianjiang University. Our family is going to have a top student who is admitted to a 985 university.

Then Li Luo wrote a novel and won the grand prize in a writing competition, with a prize of more than 50,000 yuan.

It was also mentioned that Li Luo’s royalties last month were as high as 37!
He also wrote songs for popular singers, and sold three songs for hundreds of thousands of dollars.

This place is not like the Li family, where there are many people and many eyes. Lin Xiuhong was afraid that it would get out and cause envy, so she didn't dare to say anything exaggerated.

But when she returned to her parents' home, the only people at the dinner table were her parents and her younger brother. Naturally, Lin Xiuhong could no longer hold back her chatterbox and blurted out everything.

Li Luo's grandparents and uncle Lin Xiufeng were stunned when they heard this, and they thought that Lin Xiuhong was possessed by a demon.

But after looking at Li Guohong who nodded to indicate that it was all true, they fell into deep thought for a long time and were a little unable to react for a while.

Lin Xiufeng still remembers that during the summer vacation, his elder sister's family was still hesitating about whether to buy a house.

When helping Li Luo move, it was Lin Xiufeng who personally helped.

How come such earth-shaking changes suddenly happened in just over half a year?
Li Luo covered his face and sighed, thinking that since it wasn't the first time, he might as well let his mother have fun, otherwise it would be bad if she held it back.

Anyway, my grandparents will definitely not read his novels. As for my uncle... just let it be, he'll read it.

Based on the relationship between me and my uncle, I believe he can understand me.

Fortunately, after the meal, Lin Xiuhong reminded them again, asking them not to tell these things to anyone, which made Li Luo feel a little relieved.

However, Lin Xiufeng walked to Li Luo's side in a bad mood, patted the boy's shoulder, and said with a smile: "How about you return the red envelope to me?"

"Uncle, can we take back the red envelopes we gave out?" Li Luo looked at him speechlessly, "Isn't it embarrassing?"

"You already make 37 yuan a month!" Lin Xiufeng gritted his teeth and said, "Is it easy for me to earn this yuan? I work hard every night, but I still can't make as much as you just by moving your fingers."

Of course, asking for the red envelope back was just a joke.

But it also fully illustrates Lin Xiufeng's mood at the moment, which was still somewhat dazed.

Originally, he thought that Li Luo was just smart. He took him to sell belts and taught him how to sell fried rice outside the dormitory campus, which made him earn a lot of money.

But compared with the hundreds of thousands of dollars in royalties that Li Luo received, it was nothing.

No wonder this guy looks down on the little money he gets from fried rice.

Lin Xiufeng smacked his lips and came to his senses. He finally understood why Li Luo was able to stop in time after making money from selling fried rice.

It turns out there are more profitable things to do!

Compared with the close interaction between uncle and nephew on Lin Xiufeng's side, in the afternoon, Li Luo was quietly dragged into the stairwell by his grandmother, who mysteriously took out a super thick red envelope and stuffed it into Li Luo's arms.

Li Luo pinched the red envelope, which was at least half a finger thick. He was shocked and quickly stuffed the red envelope back: "Grandma, you gave me too much! How can you put 10,000 yuan in a New Year's red envelope?"

"Don't talk nonsense. There's no way I can get 8888 yuan." Grandma whispered, "I gave you yuan. Keep it quickly and don't let your mother see it."

Li Luo was at a loss whether to laugh or cry when he saw this.

"Grandma, didn't you hear what my mom said just now? I make hundreds of thousands of dollars a month. You should keep the money and buy yourself more good things."

"What's wrong with earning hundreds of thousands? No matter how much you earn, it won't affect the red envelope you get during the Chinese New Year." Grandma frowned, "And your mother must be in charge of your money, right? Take this red envelope and buy whatever you want."

Li Luo pushed her a few times, but seeing that his grandmother was very stubborn, he had no choice but to accept it.

Seeing Li Luo stuff the red envelope into his down jacket and hide it, grandma smiled with satisfaction, patted his chest and said: "With your grades, you can be admitted to Qianjiang University in the future. Your grandpa and I are very happy. Study hard, money is secondary."

People in Qianjiang Province all have a fanatical yearning for university to some extent.

Especially Qianjiang University, which is a university that is only open to the public in the province. If any child in a family can get admitted to it, it will be publicized with drums and gongs in the surrounding area.

The grandparents were also happy and gave their grandson a packet of 8888 for good luck.

Li Luo opened the red envelope in the evening and found that it was full of brand new banknotes. It was obvious that he had taken them out from the bank before.

This made Li Luo go to the memory palace to recall, and he remembered that in his previous life, his grandmother also gave him a red envelope of 8888.

But the reason he gave was that he knew his parents had paid a lot of money for his school selection and they definitely didn't give him much pocket money, so he asked him to keep it and buy some snacks or something.

Comparing my past life with the present, the love and care from our elders is truly without any skimpiness.

It never changes because of his excellence or badness.

As long as grandparents want, they can always find a reason to make Li Luo accept the red envelope.

As for what the reason itself is, it is not important.

Li Luo lay on the bed in the bedroom prepared by his grandmother's house. He sighed in his heart, chatted with Ying Chanxi who called him in the middle of the night, and then fell into a deep sleep.

It was not until the next morning that Li Luo was awakened by the vibration of his cell phone. He reached for the phone in a daze and answered it. Then, he heard a familiar voice from the other end.

"Li Luo."

"Well...what's wrong?" Li Luo was still a little sleepy. He lay on the bed with his eyes squinted and asked while listening to Yan Zhusheng's voice.

"My senior and I are leaving now. We'll be there in half an hour."

"What?!" Li Luo sat up from the bed and woke up instantly. "No... I'm still at my grandpa's house. Why did you leave so early?"

"I was just about to say this..." Xu Youyu yawned from the other side. "Zhu Sheng came to my house early in the morning. My mother even invited her to have breakfast at home before she came."

"It's already the third year of junior high school." Yan Zhusheng said seriously, "Didn't we agree to come here on the third year of junior high school?"

"Why don't you come in the early morning?" Li Luo couldn't help but complain.

"It's hard to get a taxi in the early morning," Yan Zhusheng said honestly, "and it's not safe."

"Then you are quite smart." Li Luo laughed twice, "But I can't go back so early. I won't leave until at least eight or nine o'clock."

"If you arrive early, call Xixi first and ask her to entertain you."

"Then let my senior live in the bedroom next to mine, and Zhusheng, you can live in the empty room at Xixi's house."

After hearing what Li Luo said, Yan Zhusheng couldn't help but ask, "Can't I choose the room myself?"

"No, the guest should follow the host's wishes." Li Luo rejected it outright, "These are all arranged by Xixi. Just listen to her when you get there."

"Oh..." Yan Zhusheng's mood was obviously a little low and he looked a little unhappy.

Xu Youyu next to him was very satisfied with the arrangement: "Okay, got it, then let's call Xixi first, and remember to come back early."
