Du Di'an saw the joy in his eyes and the few white hairs scattered in his hair, and suddenly felt that although they adopted him, they did not fulfill their obligation to be a son. Although the matter of getting him engaged to the Ivy family three years ago caused some shadows in his heart, as time passed, the hatred in his heart had already been healed, and his father often said that people are not sages, who can be blameless?
"I have only been away for more than ten days, and I have lost so much weight." Jula looked at Du Dian distressed.
Gray smiled and said, "Come over and sit down and talk."
Du Dian nodded slightly, put down his luggage, and came to the dining table to chat with them about the business district. As for the task, it is a secret, so it is better not to tell them more.
"You said that you were appreciated by the consortium and promoted your position?" Gray was a little surprised when he heard Du Dian's words just now. Is this the first time he performed a task to promote his position? Is it too soon?
Du Dian took out the key in his arms and said, "The consortium assigned me a house, and we can move to a new house in the future."
Jula was stunned and said, "Assign a house directly? So lavish!"
"Tsk tsk, as expected of the Mellon Consortium!" Gray sighed after hearing the news or events of the Mellon Consortium, and then shook his head slightly: "However, your mother and I have lived here for too long, and the surrounding neighbors are very Familiar, moving to a new place is a bit uncomfortable, and my work is not far from home."
"So, then I can only live in the business district alone." Du Di'an regretted it.
"Well, you're about to get married, and you should learn to be self-reliant... eh? Wait, what did you just say? Live in a commercial area? You mean the house allocated to you by the consortium is in a commercial area?"
"yes."
"You, you... that what, when can we move in?"
"...anytime."
"Haha..." Gray suddenly burst out laughing. His lifelong pursuit was to live in a business district and see the life of a superior man. He didn't expect such a wish to come true so suddenly.
Jula covered her mouth and chuckled, looking at Du Di'an's eyes full of care and relief, also did not expect Du Di'an to give them such a big surprise.
Seeing them so happy, Du Dian couldn't help but smile, suddenly thought of something, took out a gold coin from his arms, and said, "This is what I earned during this mission, and I borrowed a lot from you before. The excess shall be filial to you."
Unlawfully taken from Royal Road, this story should be reported if seen on Amazon.
Gray and Jula were a little surprised when they saw the gold coins. They didn't expect to perform a task and earn a gold coin in just over ten days. This was much higher than their salary, which was incomparable.
"This is what you earned?" Jula was still a little unbelievable and couldn't help but said: "What is your mission? Is it difficult to do? You were trained before, and you are a guard. Shouldn't it, your mission is very dangerous, isn't it?" Years of life had already made her understand that effort and gain are directly proportional, there is absolutely no free lunch in the world, and even if there is, it will be in the trash.
Du Dian smiled and said: "Nothing, we don't fight, there is no danger, but the task is more complicated, so it needs training, and ordinary people can't do it." He grinned.
Jula looked at him dubiously. "Really?"
Du Dian nodded with great certainty.
Seeing this, Jula was relieved and smiled: "So, you are really capable. When I first saw you, I felt that you were different from other children..." Speaking of this, she suddenly felt her husband's arm Touch her, gave her a wink, and suddenly realized that he should not continue to mention the orphanage, so as not to evoke Du Di'an's memory.
Du Di'an noticed Gray's little actions, but he didn't care. Instead, he felt a little guilty, because he knew that although he could be nice to them, he would never forget his biological parents and his sister who loved him since childhood. They were held in his heart. Prison has taken up too many places, and no one can replace it.
"After you go to the new house, I will help you put up a position in the consortium." Du Dian said to the two of them: "In this case, you don't have to work, you can get the basic salary every month, and you don't have to save so much. I will make a lot of money in the future." This is also one of his hunter's privileges, as long as you move a little bit, in each industry chain in the consortium, you can choose one that has a chance to move to arrive.
Gray smiled and said, "I'm still strong, and I don't need your retirement. Although you make a lot of money, you can't spend it indiscriminately. You can save it for a wife and children in the future, you know?"
"Speaking of this." Jula suddenly smiled and said, "Dian, an aunt I met a few days ago is very nice, and her daughter is about to get married. I want to meet you, what do you think?"
Du Dian couldn't help but blushed slightly, and said embarrassingly: "This, this..."
"You're getting old too, it's time to think about it." Gray also said.
Du Dian is a little ashamed, where is the age, he is still a quarter away from the age of twelve, okay? Thirteen is the legal age for marriage, and in his worldview, even if he is thirteen, he is just a little kid, It doesn't go well with getting married and having children!
However, people in this era are aging fast, and diseases, disasters, and other problems will take a lot of lives every year, and even when the radiation in the body accumulates to a similar level, they will lose their reproductive function, so they get married very early, but he can't adapt to this.
"Let's think about it when I get older." Du Di'an said tactfully.
Jula saw the persistence in Du Di'an's eyes, and said helplessly: "Okay, I'm not reluctant if you don't want to, but you don't want to go and see, her daughter is very beautiful, I have seen it, she is a little beauty ."
"I agree with that." Gray laughed.
Jula rolled her eyes at him.
Du Dian shook his head again and again, and it would be even more hurtful to refuse after the meeting. However, in his heart, he suddenly thought of that moonlit night, sitting side by side in the pavilion in the garden, looking up at the figure of the gray moon chatting all night, his heartbeat could not help speeding up slightly, and he thought to himself, what is she doing now? Wouldn't it be too abrupt if I went to find her directly?
Thinking of these, I can't help but have some thoughts drifting away.
...
...
I chatted with Jula and his wife very late that night. Early the next morning, when it was just dawn, Du Di'an's biological clock still pulled him up on time. After simply washing and eating breakfast, he said hello to Jula and his wife and went out, riding a carriage. Go to the ghetto.
Jula mentioned the orphanage last night, which made him feel a little anxious. Although they only lived with Patton for a few months in the beginning, now three years have passed, and the memory of the face in his mind is blurred, but he still remembers from the bottom of his heart. When the orphanage was at a loss, they were by their side.
He knew very well how orphans would be treated if they were not adopted beyond their age.
Now, he has the qualifications to adopt them, and it just so happens that he has accumulated funds and is ready to start building his laboratory. He is short of a few people, and there are not many people he can trust. Except for the three Macons, they are the first disabled orphans who helped him.
