Chapter 605: Counterattack of the Original Female Lead 40
The three Yan brothers, Eldest Brother Yan inherited Grandpa Yan’s expectations, entered the department to pursue his career, and now at twenty-eight, young as he is, he has already reached the rank of regiment officer.
Second Brother Yan didn’t like the life in the department. His lifelong ambition since childhood was to become a doctor and save people, so now he works at the city’s military district hospital.
He’s also a very busy person. Last night, he was on night duty, performed four surgeries, and today he’s resting all morning, had lunch, and after a while, rushed to the hospital again.
Yan Hui, being the youngest, is also the son Mr. Yan has high hopes for to take his place, but since the youngest son has just graduated high school, Mr. Yan hasn’t made a move to get him into the system before the Yan Family became a target.
Among the three children of the Yan Family, Eldest Brother Yan and Second Brother Yan both have jobs. Mr. Yan had no choice but to painfully send the youngest son to the countryside as a zhiqing to lead the call for national policy.
Now, the youngest son is back and has been admitted to Capital University, and the happiest person is Mr. Yan.
In the afternoon, Yuan Chun went back to her room for a nap.
Yan Hui was pulled into the study by Mr. Yan for a talk that lasted all afternoon.
In the evening, Yan Jun and Second Brother Yan were not home, so it was only Mr. Yan, Mrs. Yan, Yuan Chun, and Yan Hui having dinner. Mrs. Yan made dumplings filled with cabbage and meat.
In the following days, both Mr. Yan and Mrs. Yan were busy with work, and Yan Hui took Yuan Chun to visit all the big and small attractions in Beijing.
When the weekend came, the family of four went to the military district compound to visit Grandpa Yan and Grandma Yan.
Grandpa Yan, who has long held a high position, carries an imposing presence without anger, but upon seeing the delicate and charming granddaughter-in-law, he tried hard to appear amiable and kind.
But in fact, his smile was so stiff it could kill a dog.
Seeing this softened Yuan Chun’s heart.
This is the old hero often seen on TV.
The General.
He is a figure that the Xia Family could only dream of reaching.
To her surprise, he turned out to be so amiable and kind in private.
The Yan Family elders were all easy to get along with, and no one looked down on her for being from a small place.
Second Uncle Yan and Second Aunt Yan didn’t have a daughter; they had four sons, one more than Mrs. Yan, and none of their four sons were married. This made Grandpa Yan and Grandma Yan quite teased by old friends and sisters in the compound for not having any married grandchildren.
Yuan Chun was the Yan Family’s first granddaughter-in-law and instantly became the family favorite.
When leaving the military district compound, Grandpa Yan, Grandma Yan, Second Uncle Yan, Second Aunt Yan, and even several cousins of the Yan Family stuffed red envelopes into her hands.
Grandma Yan also gave her a pair of emerald bracelets as a meeting gift.
Yuan Chun’s visit earned her incredible gains.
Back home, she quietly calculated that she had made over sixteen hundred yuan.
Yuan Chun was tongue-tied.
Yan Hui walked into the room to find his wife holding a pile of money and smiling joyfully. Yan Hui teased, "You little money grubber, look how happy you are! I might as well hand over all my treasures to you."
"Sure, bring it over."
Yuan Chun reached out to him.
Yan Hui pulled out a small wooden box from under the bed, opened it, and inside there were many small notes and coins, as well as five and ten yuan bills.
At the bottom, there was also a small gold lock, a pair of baby gold bracelets, several jade pendants, and a large pile of red envelopes.
"These are the red envelopes I’ve received since I was little, this is the little gold lock and bracelets I wore when I was young, but only at home, mom would take them off before going out, afraid they’d attract too much attention... These notes and coins are my pocket money saved from childhood, my wife, now I’m entrusting them all to you."
