Especially the shallow dimples on her lips and the upturned corners of her mouth when she smiles, they look like they were carved from the same mold.

"Is this the legendary mother-daughter look?" Jiang Yue said jokingly, and then began to observe Zhou Bang and Ye Han.

As she watched, Jiang Yue exclaimed again, "Oh, look, Yanhan's eyes and nose are very similar to Captain Zhou's."

After Jiang Yue's reminder, everyone began to observe Zhou Bang and Ye Han again.

You don’t know until you see it, and you’ll be shocked. Ye Xuanhan and Zhou Bang look like real father and daughter.

Zhou Bang began to look flustered. He pinched his nose and said, "I'm a rough guy, how could my nose be similar to that of the girl Han? Did you see it wrong?" He squinted his eyes as he spoke.

"Yeah, how could he look like Zhou Bang, since his eyes are so big?" Jiang Aihua said, "I think he looks like me."

Just now everyone said that Ye Xuanhan looked like Jiang Aihua, and she was very happy about it.

Suddenly, she heard people saying that Ye Hanhan looked like her husband, and she became unhappy.

...

...

"Daughters take after their mothers, so Han should look more like me," Jiang Aihua concluded directly.

Jiang Yue chuckled and said, "Jiang Aihua, you must have remembered it wrongly. I remember that daughters take after their fathers, and sons look like their mothers."

Jiang Aihua was speechless.

She felt deeply about this.

Her son Zhou Jing has grown up. Whenever she goes out with him, people will say that Zhou Jing looks like her and is good-looking.

But she still said stubbornly: "Yanhan looks more like me, look at how similar their dimples are."

"Yes, yes, yes," Jiang Yue said, "Why bother with these things? You are not Han's biological parents."

After being reminded by Jiang Yue, everyone suddenly realized that Ye Hanhan was not Zhou Bang and Jiang Aihua’s biological daughter.

But it is also true that she looks like the couple.

At this time, Zhou Bang coughed twice and said, "Aihua, let's eat quickly. We have important things to do when we get home later."

"Yes," Jiang Aihua said, "Zhou Jing will be back tomorrow afternoon, and I have to go back quickly to clean up the house for him."

Hearing that Zhou Jing was going home, Ye Han asked, "Did Captain Zhou ask for leave?"

"Yes, the New Year is coming soon, and he took a month off just to come back and be with me," Jiang Aihua said with a smile.

Ye Hanhan was speechless. Looking at the other person's smile, he knew that Zhou Jing would not come back just to see his parents.

Maybe I will be taken out by my mother to go on a blind date.

She remembered that Zhou Jing seemed to be quite old, and was considered an older young person in the 1970s.

Ye Hanhan didn't know what the other party's situation was.

Logically speaking, a man like Zhou Jing, who has good looks, a good family background, a good personality and a promising future, should be pursued by a lot of girls.

But it's just unacceptable that he is still a bachelor at the age of nearly 30.

"Xianhan, you and Jiang Wang can come to our house some other day, and then we can have a family gathering together," Jiang Aihua said, "I'll also tell Zhou Jing and Siqi the good news that we've become mother and daughter."

Jiang Aihua understood her son's character.

If he knew that he and Ye Xuanhan would become mother and daughter, he would have no objection.

But Zhou Siqi's side is a bit tricky. She was spoiled by me when she was growing up. If she really saw that I and Han became mother and daughter, I'm afraid the roof of her house would be blown off.

Jiang Aihua suddenly felt a headache.

My daughter has always been a worry to me since she was young. I don’t know if I owed her something in my previous life.

After dinner, Jiang Aihua and Zhou Bang left in a hurry.

Ye Xuanhan returned to the house and opened the four red envelopes given by Zhou Bang and Jiang Aihua.

Only one of them was for her, and the rest were for Jiang Wang, Dayu and Xiaoyu.

However, Ye Xuanhan holds the financial power of their family of four, and giving it to Jiang Wang and the children is equivalent to giving it to her.

Ye Yanhan opened the red envelopes one by one and his eyes popped out of his head in surprise.

There was two hundred yuan in the red envelopes given to Jiang Wang and the two children.

But inside the red envelope he gave himself was a passbook with 5,000 yuan in it.

Five thousand yuan is more than ten years’ salary for a city dweller in this era.

She was a little confused as to whether Jiang Aihua knew that Zhou Bang had given her so much money.

Unfortunately, they were in a hurry and didn't have time to ask what was going on.

And does Jiang Aihua know that her husband gave her so much money?

Ye Hanhan calculated in his mind that Zhou Bang was a regiment leader and his monthly allowance was only 80 yuan at most.

Jiang Aihua has no job and no income.

As for Zhou Jing, he would send at most half of his allowance back home every month.

This amount of money must be their entire family's income for four or five years.

When Jiang Wang opened the door, he saw Ye Xuanhan sitting on the bed, lost in thought.

Looking at the passbook in her hand, Jiang Wang was also a little surprised, "Did Uncle Zhou - Dad give you this passbook?"

Jiang Wang was not used to seeing that he had suddenly changed his name to "Dad", after calling him Uncle Zhou for more than 20 years.

"Hmm." Ye Han frowned, "There's 5,000 yuan on it. I don't know if they took it by mistake."

"Impossible," Jiang Wang said.

Zhou Bang is very careful, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to become the head of the group.

It is impossible for him to mix up the savings book with 5,000 yuan and the red envelope.

Seeing that he could not get an answer from Jiang Wang, Ye Han put the passbook away and planned to visit Zhou Bang and Jiang Aihua another day and find a chance to ask them.

Jiang Wang still has more than half a month of vacation left. After the New Year, he will go to the northwest.

Ye Xuanhan decided to cherish the time he spent with Jiang Wang, otherwise he didn't know when they would meet next time.

As the New Year draws to a close, every household puts Spring Festival couplets on their doors and hangs red lanterns.

Ye Xuanhan learned how to make clothes from Grandma Jiang and made tiger-head hats and shoes for the two children.

The two little ones are fair-skinned with chubby faces. They look particularly cute after putting on clothes.

When people who come to visit my house see me, they can't help but hug me.

On the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month, Ye Hanhan and Jiang Wang went to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy canned food and cakes. They then carried the things to the military family compound to meet Zhou Bang and Jiang Aihua.

After discussing it in advance on the phone, the two went to the family compound.

When they arrived at the place, they saw Zhou Bang waiting at the door. When he saw Ye Xuanhan, a smile immediately broke out on his face.

"Yanhan girl, here you come."

"Dad," Ye Han also smiled happily, "I heard that Brother Zhou is back, so Jiang Wang and I came to see him."

"Okay, okay," Zhou Bang said with a smile, "Come in quickly. Hey, why are you still carrying things?"

Ye Xuanhan handed the gift he brought to Jiang Wang and asked him to go in first.

Then he said to Zhou Bang: "Dad, don't go in yet, I want to ask you something."
