Chapter Thirty-eight: BMW X6

At seven o'clock in the afternoon, when Li Xiaohu and his mother stood on the land of Lanzhou again, they were so excited that tears streamed down their faces. After all, this was the place where they were born and raised. The breath of their hometown made them feel warm and excited.

Since Li Xiaohu's home was in a small county town in Lanzhou City, the three of them didn't rush there directly that night. Lu Feng casually found a relatively clean and tidy hotel and stayed there first.

Lu Feng went out and bought dinner. After the meal, Lu Feng smiled at Li Xiaohu and said, "Xiaohu, let's go out and take a stroll tonight. Let your aunt rest here. This is my first time in Lanzhou, and I want to have a good look at the local customs and practices here!"

Li Xiaohu turned to look at his mother. He had been to Lanzhou before, but most of the time he was here to seek medical treatment for his mother, running between various hospitals. He usually had no time to appreciate the prosperity of this big city.

The middle-aged woman smiled gently, with a look of doting and heartache in her eyes, and said softly, "Xiaohu, you go! Accompany your Big Brother Lu well. I'll go to bed later."

Thanks to the improvement of his mother's condition in the past few days, Li Xiaohu was in a much better mood. After hearing his mother's words, he also thought that he should do his duty as a host, so he nodded and agreed.

The air in Lanzhou was very fresh, and it was even a bit chilly in this month.

The night in Lanzhou was filled with the strong atmosphere of nightlife. The spacious roads between the tall buildings were not less crowded with vehicles just because it was night. The scene of cars flowing like water and horses like dragons, and countless people lingering in the row upon row of high-end shops, painted this world as a prosperous picture scroll.

Walking among the crowd, Lu Feng looked at the things in the shops with great interest and asked Li Xiaohu beside him, "Xiaohu, are you familiar with this place? Have you been here before?"

Li Xiaohu shook his head. His bright eyes were also looking at the things in the clean and bright high-end shops. However, surprisingly, there was not the slightest expectation in his eyes, nor any desire to own the things inside.

After going through the hardships of the past few years, although he couldn't say that he had completely seen through the world, he understood a lot of truths: the things here were beyond his reach, and there was no need to even dream of or expect them.

Or it could be said that this was a paradise, but not a paradise that belonged to him.

In the past, he was just a poor soul lingering on the threshold of hell.

Lu Feng felt a little sad in his heart, nodded, and forced a smile, saying, "Let's go. Let's go into that clothing store ahead and take a look. We'll buy two sets of clothes for you and your mother. When we go home this time, we must look presentable and let your eldest and second brothers see. As for your house, I will get it back for you. Even if you don't live in it in the future, we can't let those heartless people have it for nothing."

"This..."

A look of hesitation appeared on Li Xiaohu's face, and then he silently shook his head and said in a low voice, "Big Brother, forget it. Just getting the house back is enough. I don't want to make my mother feel embarrassed. We won't have any contact with those two people in the future either."

Lu Feng let out a soft sigh, "You're too kind-hearted, kid! Now, I'm afraid your mother has been completely heartbroken by those two unfilial sons. Although even a tiger won't eat its cubs, since the other side abandoned you mercilessly and made you live a life worse than death, your mother is probably already disheartened. Maybe, in her heart, those two children she raised are already dead. Xiaohu, there's a saying you must remember firmly, 'If others are unkind to you, you don't have to be kind to them.' If someone treats you well by one point, you should treat them well by ten points. But if someone treats you badly, then you don't have to treat them as human beings. Do you understand?"

Li Xiaohu's face darkened, but he still nodded heavily.

He felt that what Big Brother Lu said made sense. Now he had no feelings for those two brothers at all. Even if something happened to them, he wouldn't even give them a glance.

After thinking it through, the gloomy look on his face gradually faded away, and he said seriously, "Big Brother Lu, then I'll have you spend money on us. But don't worry, I will earn a lot of money in the future. I will pay you back ten or twenty times the money you've spent on us now and repay you well!"

Lu Feng smiled and rubbed Li Xiaohu's hair with his hand, saying, "What silly words are you saying! Just think of me as a chivalrous hero who helps those in need when seeing injustice. It's a kind of fate that we met in this life. Don't mention anything about repayment in the future! Let's go! Let's buy some clothes."

A bright smile appeared on Li Xiaohu's face. At this moment, his smiling face was finally in line with his young and energetic age.

"By the way, you should know what size of clothes your mother wears, right?" Lu Feng asked with a smile.

"Yeah. In the past few years, most of the clothes my mother wore were begged by me, but I bought two sets for her from a small shop. I know her size!" A look of pride appeared on Li Xiaohu's face, as if being able to buy clothes for his mother was a very glorious thing.

Lu Feng chuckled and strode into a Metersbonwe specialty store.

He didn't take Li Xiaohu to a too high-end store. After all, Li Xiaohu was still young. Metersbonwe was a trendy clothing brand for young people, and its products were both good in quality and reasonable in price.

As the saying goes, people rely on their appearance just as horses rely on saddles.

When Li Xiaohu took off the oversized clothes he was wearing, which belonged to Lu Feng, and put on a new set of clothes, he seemed to be a completely different person. With his young appearance and casual clothes, and that bright smiling face, he looked particularly energetic.

Lu Feng bought three sets of clothes for Li Xiaohu in one go. After paying the bill, he took Li Xiaohu and left.

Later, according to the body size of Li Xiaohu's mother that he mentioned, Lu Feng bought two sets of clothes for her. Then they carried big and small bags and bought two pairs of new shoes for each of them in a shoe store before returning to the hotel.

The next day, the weather was still sunny, but there was a cold wind blowing under the warm sunlight.

When a brand-new BMW X6 SUV stopped steadily outside the hotel, Lu Feng and Li Xiaohu were helping Li Xiaohu's mother out of the hotel. This car was rented temporarily last night by Lu Feng from the most famous car rental company in Lanzhou City.

"Hello. Are you Mr. Lu Feng? I'm from Bolanya Car Rental Company. My surname is Li." A strong and capable middle-aged man with sharp eyes got out of the driver's seat and came to Lu Feng's side and asked respectfully.

Lu Feng nodded with a smile and said politely, "I'm Lu Feng. Sorry to trouble you, Brother Li. Let's set off now. I gave you the address last night, right?"

Driver Li nodded and smiled, "You gave it to me last night! Lijia Village, Changlong Town, Qingfeng County. If we set off now, we can arrive in about an hour and a half."

Beside them, Li Xiaohu's mother had a complicated expression on her face. After hesitating for a moment, she asked nervously, "Little Brother Lu, are we really going back in this car? I... I'm afraid..."

Lu Feng shook his head and smiled, "Auntie, you don't have to be afraid. I'll take care of everything. When you see your two unfilial sons, you don't have to say anything. If you trust me, leave everything to me, and I guarantee you'll be satisfied."

The middle-aged woman let out a soft sigh. She didn't nod, but she didn't shake her head either.

Driver Li from the car rental company had excellent driving skills. The BMW X6 SUV drove steadily on the spacious road and headed towards Qingfeng County.

Qingfeng County was a dilapidated small county town with a population of less than 100,000. And Changlong Town was considered a large town in Qingfeng County. Lijiazhuang was an even more famous village within a radius of ten miles. Because almost everyone in this village had the surname Li, and they all originally had the same ancestor. Although some of them were already beyond the five degrees of kinship, the people in this village were particularly united. If someone dared to bully a villager, all the villagers would unite against the outsider.

As usual, at eleven o'clock in the morning, many households were busy farming in the fields. The winding rural dirt road was like a flattened dragon coiled on this lush green land.

When the red BMW X6 SUV drove quickly through the fields, kicking up dust all the way, it immediately attracted everyone's attention. Although this village was quite famous, after all, it was a poor place where nothing grew. People here worked hard in the fields from dawn to dusk, facing the loess and turning their backs to the sky. In reality, they had never seen such a luxurious and magnificent SUV.

The old village head, who was quite old, stopped his work, with a strong look of confusion in his eyes. He looked at a middle-aged man not far away and shouted, "Li Hui, what's going on with that car? Such a nice car! Why is it driving towards our village?"

The middle-aged man named Li Hui shook his head in confusion and shouted, "I don't know either! I know this car. It's a BMW X6 SUV, which costs one or two million yuan each! No big shot has ever come out of our village, and there's no one here who can attract the attention of big shots. Even in the county town, there are few people who can afford to drive such a car. Why is there one coming to our village?"

His words caused an uproar among the people around.

One or two million yuan?

A car was actually so valuable?

You know, one or two million yuan was an astronomical figure in their eyes.

People's nature is to like to watch the excitement, and these rural people were no exception. It didn't matter if they didn't do the farm work for a while, but the arrival of a big shot in such a one or two million yuan car was a once-in-a-hundred-years event, and they must go and see the excitement.

I don't know who let out a loud shout, and then almost everyone picked up their work tools and rushed towards the village a few miles away.

The dilapidated courtyard, the low tile-roofed houses, there was already a lot of grass growing on the courtyard walls at this time. And that big black wooden door was locked with a rusty lock. It seemed that no one had opened this lock or entered this courtyard for a long time.

When the red luxurious BMW X6 SUV stopped steadily outside the big black wooden door, there were already many idle people gathering around. Even some people who saw it from a long distance hurried over.

The legendary luxury car, which they had only seen on TV before, could now be seen with their own eyes, making everyone extremely excited. Of course, many people were also guessing who could be arriving in such a car.
