Chapter 236

Dr. Jin nodded, "Of course I remember! It was only a few days ago. The day I took the medicine was the third day of the third lunar month in the Gregorian calendar. It was a single day."

Li Chunlan and Shi Jingning chatted with Dr. Jin for a while before taking their leave.

After walking far away, Li Chunlan lowered her voice and said to Shi Jingning, "According to the date that Dr. Jin said, Zhang Rong has already arrived in the capital. I wonder what she is doing in the capital?"

Shi Jingning had been thinking about this question just now, "Chunlan, do you know how much a sleeper ticket to the capital costs?"

In the 70s, coal-burning green leather trains used to go to and from various places. This kind of train was extremely slow and stopped at every station, but the fare was also cheap.

This cheap fare is equivalent to the income of urban residents. People living in big cities at that time could earn an average salary of a dozen yuan to a little over 20 yuan.

However, the income of people in East River City is not high, so buying a bus ticket has become a huge expense.

"Five yuan?" Li Chunlan guessed wildly.

"That's the price of a hard seat. The sleeper costs ten yuan and eighty cents. Zhang Rong bought two sleeper tickets at once, which is 21 yuan!" Shi Jingning put away his smile and reported a number to Li Chunlan seriously.

Li Chunlan gasped, her first reaction was that it was impossible, if Zhang Rong had so much spare money, she would not have taken the risk of marrying herself to the cripple to cheat the bride price.

"Where did Zhang Rong get the money?" Li Chunlan couldn't help asking.

"Good question, this is the crux of the problem. I guess the person who asked her to go to the capital was the one who gave her the money to buy a bus ticket!" Shi Jingning had figured out the key point a long time ago.

"But Zhang Rong won't go early or late, so why is someone giving her money to go to the capital at this time?" Li Chunlan had a guess in her heart.
"Could it be that the person who gave Zhang Rong the money was not someone from the capital, but Wu Xiaofen!"

Shi Jingning was stunned for a moment, then nodded approvingly, "Chunlan, your analysis is very correct, this possibility is very high, originally Zhang Rong could not directly contact people in the capital,"

"But when Wu Xiaofen made things difficult for you, she committed a crime and lost her freedom. She had no choice but to entrust Zhang Rong to run errands for her!"

This speculation was already very close to the truth, the two analyzed it for a while, and the matter became at a loss again. If they wanted to know what Zhang Rong was doing in the capital, they could only wait until she came back, and then play by ear!

The two returned home and told Uncle Li Dongbao that he had left.

Li Dongbao also breathed a sigh of relief, his simple and honest face obviously relaxed, "Wow, go, otherwise I really don't know how to deal with them!"

Li Dongbao is an honest man. He thought that Li Laicai and Li Laicai are blood brothers. It is not easy to do too much in everything, and he must maintain the situation of brothers and sisters.

But Li Laicai has been aggressive recently, especially disrespecting Li Chunlan in words, which makes Li Dongbao very embarrassed, after all, a girl is more important to him.

This caused Li Dongbao to be caught in a dilemma. Fortunately, Li Laicai is gone now.

To the surprise of Li Dongbao's family, not long after they breathed a sigh of relief, Li Laicai's family left and returned, and this time they came back with great fanfare.

Li Laicai's family hired two bullock carts to carry their family's household belongings, and moved them directly into Zhao's old yard.

The situation Li Chunlan saw was a little strange. Didn't this family have no money to buy a house?

She remembered the scene where Li Chunsheng asked herself for money, so she frowned and asked Li Dongbao, "Dad, let me ask you something, Li Laicai's family bought a house, did you or my grandfather ask for money?"
