Sixty-year-old only child: The system taught me how to become rich

Gu Ning was a little confused after hearing this, and asked:

"Mom, have you ever eaten such bitter chocolate before?"

Gigi Lai smiled and said:

"Of course. This kind of chocolate is a high-end product, usually only sold in Friendship Stores. If you want to buy things in Friendship Stores, you must need foreign exchange coupons. Foreign exchange coupons are not so easy to get. Fortunately, your grandparents have a few A relative and friend is an overseas Chinese, so our family can often get some foreign exchange coupons, and I can often eat chocolate."

Gu Ning nodded understandingly and asked again:

"Mom, did you eat sweet chocolate before or this bitter chocolate? I don't think this bitter chocolate tastes good at all. How can you keep eating it, mom?"

Gigi Gigi touched her little head, with some memories in her eyes, and said:

"Actually, I didn't like this kind of bitter chocolate when I was a child. Like you, I prefer the sweet chocolate. It's my grandma. She likes to eat this kind of chocolate with a strong bitter taste, but she doesn't like the sweet one. Eat. Like you, I asked her why, and she said I had to taste it carefully."

After speaking, Gigi Lai paused for a moment before continuing:

"She said that chocolate is the best when it has a strong bitter taste with a little sweetness. It is rich and smooth. Eating chocolate is like tasting life, with bitterness and sweetness. I didn't understand it at first, but I realized it later. This is the feeling she was talking about.”

After saying that, she stopped talking.

This was the first time Gu Ning heard Li Zi mention her grandma, and she was curious and asked:

"Mom, where is your grandma now? Why haven't I seen her? Also, she said it was sweet, but I didn't taste it at all. I don't think what she said was right."

Gigi Lai looked sad, with half-lowered eyes, and said lightly:

"She has passed away."

Gu Xian, who had been silently listening to the conversation between mother and daughter, knew that her daughter had said the wrong thing and quickly went to Gigi Gigi to comfort her.

Gu Xian realized something was wrong when Gu Ning asked the question just now, but it was too late to stop him.

Gu Xian had never met Gigi Gigi's grandparents, and they probably died before the two of them got to know each other. Gigi Gigi's family only mentioned it a few times, and Gu Xian didn't ask any more questions. He didn't know the specific situation.

But this is most likely a sad thing for Gigi Lai. Now that she suddenly mentioned it, she naturally felt sad.

Gu Ning also found that her mother had become a little unhappy since she asked this question.

She was a little uneasy, afraid that she had said the wrong thing.

Gigi Lai also came out of her sadness at this time. Noticing Gu Ning's uneasiness, she immediately comforted:

"Mom is fine. I just remembered some unhappy things. It has nothing to do with you."

With her mother's comfort, Gu Ning gradually returned to her original state, but she didn't speak anymore for a while.

The room fell into silence.

Seeing this, Gigi Lai took the initiative to speak and talked about her grandmother Liu Shuhua:

"I have never told you about my grandma. Even A-Xian probably doesn't know her very well. Right?"

Gu Xian nodded. He really didn't know much about Gigi Lai's grandmother. After all, they left Kyoto less than a year after their wedding.

Seeing Gu Xian nod, Li Zi did not speak immediately, as if she was recalling in her mind.

Neither Gu Xian nor Gu Ning said a word, waiting for Gigi Lai to finish recalling.

Finally, Gigi Lai spoke again:

"My grandma is a scientist. You also know that the environment in her time was really unfriendly to women, so there were really few female scientists like her. My grandma's family was well off. At that time, China The general environment was not good, and my grandma’s father went to study and work abroad at that time, and later moved the whole family to country m.”

After speaking, Gigi took a drink from the water glass on the table and moistened her throat before continuing:

"She studied in country m, went to university, and later went to engage in scientific research. At that time, wars broke out in China from time to time, and the country was in turmoil all year round. At first, she stayed in country m, and then she met my grandfather Li Zongping. After he studied abroad, When he wanted to go back, my grandma also missed her homeland, so she came back with him. And she has stayed here ever since."

Gu Ning became excited after hearing this and asked:

"Then is she still doing scientific research after she comes back?"

Gigi Lai nodded:

"Although she got married, she did not give up her career and has been persisting in research work. She has made quite a lot of achievements. People who are not engaged in scientific research may not have heard of her, but people who are engaged in scientific research have basically heard of her. Everyone knows her."

"Wow!"

Gu Ning let out an exclamation,

"Mom, your grandma is so amazing. I will also engage in scientific research in the future and become as powerful as her."

Gigi Gigi touched her head and smiled slightly:

"Okay, I believe you."

Gu Xian also listened to the whole story and thought to himself, no wonder his father-in-law and mother-in-law felt that he would be implicated before the incident happened, so they asked his wife to come to Yuquan City with him. It turns out it’s because they have foreign backgrounds.

Gigi Lai herself knows this too. In fact, there are some things she didn't say. Their family actually has an asset abroad. The gold bars deposited in major banks alone are probably not a small amount.

Most of the assets abroad belong to her grandmother. Moreover, grandma’s brothers and sisters are abroad. They have been in contact with each other in the past few years, and some of their assets, such as companies and stores, have been helped by them.

Moreover, her grandfather's family used to be quite prominent, and the property he left behind plus her mother's dowry was not a small amount. These were all hidden by my father who was well prepared and would take them out after the exercise was over.

But I don’t know how long it will be until the end of the movement, so there is no need to say it now. Let’s talk about what happens next.

It took a month for the housing allocation results to come out. During this period, people who wanted to share a house tried their best and found various connections.

The final result is naturally that some people are happy and some are sad.

Not surprisingly, Gigi Lai also got a set this time.

Although there are only three people in the family, because she has a relatively high level and is a talented person, her work unit provides preferential treatment, so she was assigned three bedrooms and one living room.

The house is not completely finished yet, so it will be some time before we can move there.

The whole family of three is very satisfied with the result.

Gu Xian calculated it and said:

"This is really nice. There are three rooms, one for the two of us, one for Ningning, and one for the study. If guests come, or our parents want to visit us, the study can also be used as a guest room."

Gigi Lai also agreed with his plan, and this allocation was very reasonable.

As for Gu Ning, of course she was also very happy.
