"Yuxiu, is the land in Zhongguancun really so good? Otherwise, your father and I should buy a piece of land and put it there." The eldest daughter-in-law has good vision, and she knows it better than anyone else. Every time they called, the old man would whisper in Yan Hejun's ear that he had made the right choice to marry this grandson's daughter-in-law and that his eldest grandson has good vision.

The growth of the eldest son’s company to its current size is inseparable from the contribution of his eldest daughter-in-law, the virtuous wife.

Zhong Yuxiu nodded with a smile, "If you and Dad want to buy land, that's fine; but is Dad's side allowed to do that?" Soldiers are more restricted in this regard.

"That's right." Mother Yan murmured in disappointment, "Forget it. We'll give you the money and you can buy it for us. It will be in your name and passed down to my three grandchildren."

"That's not necessary. I have 60 mu of land. If I build a house there, the whole family will have plenty of space. If you and Dad buy land just because of me, there's no need. We have quite a few properties. Rushan has bought quite a few over the years." Zhong Yuxiu paused, then continued, "One or two properties in one place are enough."

Yan's mother still couldn't help feeling disappointed. Their identities had too many restrictions.

The strict father was decisive. After hearing this, he said, "Let's save the money we have and give it to our grandchildren in the future. Xiaohai is old enough and will be able to get married soon when fate brings him together. We must prepare a betrothal gift. If the woman asks for more, we will need more money."

"Mom and Dad, there's no need. I can earn money to marry a wife myself. If you really want to be picky, I don't care about any wife." Yan Ruhai has this confidence. Don't ask why. Just look at his family. His grandfather is a retired cadre; his parents are military cadres; his brother owns several companies that can be merged and listed at any time; his sister-in-law has status, position, and achievements, and she is listed on the list.

There are so many people who want to marry into the Yan family. Once they do, not only will they gain face, but their status will also be immediately improved.

Mother Yan chuckled, "With your melons and dates, how long will it take you to save up enough to get married? You even borrowed money from your brother and sister-in-law to buy land, how dare you say that."

"Just because I don't have money now doesn't mean I won't have it in the future. I'm hanging out with my brother and sister-in-law, and it's only a matter of time before I earn enough money to marry a wife." Yan Ruhai was full of confidence and had everything planned out, not worrying about losing money at all.

"Okay, okay, okay, you have a brother and sister-in-law, so we, your parents, will not care about you. We paid the same amount of money when your brother married your sister-in-law as when you get married." Mother Yan said this. She originally wanted to subsidize her youngest son, but after hearing what her youngest son said, she felt relieved.

The youngest son has always been playful and his destiny has not yet arrived, so he can forget about getting married in the next few years. But after a few years, with the eldest son taking care of him, the assets in his hands will definitely double, so what is there to worry about?

"This kid has a good brother and sister-in-law." Yan Guofeng said with a smile, "You two don't have to worry about him. He will tell us if there is anything."

There is nothing more joyful than a harmonious family and brothers being together.

Fighting between brothers is the beginning of the decline of a family.

All these years of teaching have not been in vain.

Yan Ruhai nodded vigorously, "That's right, brother and sister-in-law will take me with them, right? Brother, sister-in-law."

"I'll show you how I feel." Yan Rushan glanced at him, then turned back to his wife and said, "This kid is always trying to climb up the ladder. Don't be nice to him in the future."

"He is really my brother." Yan Ruhai was frustrated and looked aggrieved.

Zhong Yuxiu smiled and chuckled, while her strict father and mother shook their heads and laughed. Yan Guofeng pretended not to notice his second grandson's grievances.

Zhong Yuxiu laughed and said, "Alright, stop teasing him. If a grown man cries, how will he face people in the future? Let's stop now!"

This doesn't sound right.

"Sister-in-law, you are deliberately slandering me." He is an adult, how can he cry so easily? He has to have some dignity!

It would have been fine if he didn't say anything, but as soon as he spoke, the whole room burst into laughter.

The family chatted affectionately. On the 29th and 30th, Zhong Yuxiu still went to the Medical Research Institute to train people. On the night of the 30th, it was announced that the first day of the new year would be a day off. However, people were not allowed to leave the institute and could only relax in the institute. Training would continue on the second day of the new year.

Have a lively New Year.

On the first day of the New Year, after eating dumplings and rice balls, Yan's father and mother went to visit their superiors, old friends, and comrades-in-arms; Old Man Yan took Yan Ruhai to visit the house, and Yan Rushan and Zhong Yuxiu also sent gifts and wished a happy new year to their close friends.

The family members went their separate ways and after a busy day, they finally completed all the favors they had to show their support.

Having a wide network of contacts has its own drawbacks! It takes a lot of thought to curry favor with people; you can't just buy the same thing all the time, right? Beijing is so small, and there are only so many connections; everyone has some kind of in-law relationship or something.

If one day we see that the gifts given to every family are the same, will the Yan family still have any face left?

It was obvious at a glance that the Yan family did not value them, and that would be the blame; therefore, they had to pay attention to maintaining etiquette and choosing things carefully. For this reason, after returning on the 28th, Yan's father and mother went to various major shopping malls and picked out a lot of things.

On the second day of the Lunar New Year, Zhong Yuxiu regrouped and continued to go to the research institute for training.

With nothing to do at home, the strict parents took their eldest and youngest sons to Hongxing Village to look at houses. They didn't have to wait until moving day to look. They didn't have many days off, unlike Yan Ruhai, who only had a few days a year. Furthermore, they loved the military, having spent their entire lives in it, and they couldn't leave it.

In the large courtyard of Hongxing Village, more than 20 rooms have been renovated; the bedrooms are not only equipped with carved beds, bedside tables, wardrobes, etc., but also have screens to separate the inside and outside for entertaining guests, and there are also plenty of tables, chairs and stools.

Two of the rooms even had dressing tables and dressing stools, all of which were antique in style.

Yan's mother's eyes were red. As a woman, how could she not like beautiful things? The two women's boudoirs here were decorated according to her preferences (fog), and they were decorated according to Zhong Yuxiu's preferences. It can only be said that both the mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law like the ancient decoration style.

"Son!"

The affectionate call did not receive the same affection from the eldest son and the youngest son; one of the two sons looked at her coldly, and the other was confused. The strict mother suddenly felt that all her maternal love was wasted. So, what's the point of having a son? Isn't her daughter more beautiful?

"Forget it, let's not talk about it anymore. Yuxiu is still the best. With Yuxiu here, we have endless things to talk about." Mother Yan turned her head away and pulled Father Yan out, saying as she walked, "Leave one of these two boudoirs for me. No one else can live in it."

After they left, Yan Ruhai looked at his brother, scratching his head in confusion. "What did Mom ask us to do just now? She called us but we didn't say anything."

"Didn't I hear that she wanted a room?" Yan Rushan turned around and left. This room could be left to his mother, and the other room was in another small courtyard; that was left for his wife. Fortunately, when the house was renovated, an extra room with a similar style was added.
