Chapter 506: What Ji Qing Left Behind
"Sister-in-law is still shy?" Yan Shaoli blinked and looked at Yan Shaoyang: "Second brother, is what I said wrong?"
Yan Shaoyang smiled and said, "Yes! You are right. Sister-in-law should get used to it sooner."
Facing the two brothers and sisters who were mindlessly praising their eldest sister-in-law, Ling Jia was really a little surprised: "Third brother, Shao Yang and Shao Li were not like this before. What kind of magic potion did Third Sister-in-law feed them? They actually talk about Third Sister-in-law's goodness every other sentence?"
Yan Shaoyu picked up the teacup and took a sip of water, and said in a matter-of-fact tone: "Could it be that my wife is already very good?"
Hearing this, Ling Jia's mouth twitched, and he couldn't help but give a thumbs up: "Yes."
In his heart, he couldn't help but praise Gu Yuehuai even more. As expected, to be noticed by his third brother, he must have real talent.
Ji Weiqin didn't have so many twists and turns in his mind, and said with a smile: "Third brother, I was shocked when you wrote to come to Beijing. I thought I would never see you again in the future. I didn't expect that you would get married just over a year after leaving the capital."
Yan Shaoyu had a smile on his face, and there was a little light in his narrow eyes: "I didn't expect it."
He had never thought about getting married, but now he was very glad. Glad that she had a chance to start over and was willing to find him and spend this hard-earned life with him. He was even more glad that he couldn't resist the sugar-coated bullet and ended up falling into it.
Although Yan Shaoyu didn't say much, the expression on his face said it all.
Ling Jia and Ji Weiqun looked at each other and felt genuinely happy.
Yan Shaoyang and Yan Shaoli's eyes were also filled with joy, and they were very happy that their eldest brother could find his own happiness.
Yan Shaoli listened to the noisy discussions of the brigade members outside, and then he remembered the high-profile situation when Ling Jia and Ji Weiqin came. He couldn't help but be curious: "Brother Ling Jia, Brother Weiqin, do you have high salaries? Why do you bring so many gifts when you come?"
She just looked at them all: bicycles, radios, sewing machines, everything!
Ling Jia laughed loudly, then glanced at Yan Shaoyu: "You didn't tell them?"
Yan Shaoyu remained silent, with his fingers folded together, looking relaxed.
Yan Shaoli was suspicious: "What did you say? What did Big Brother do without telling us?"
Ling Jia turned around with the water cup in hand and didn't answer, clearly not telling the truth. Ji Weiqin looked embarrassed and said to Yan Shaoyu, "Third brother, don't hide this from Shaoyang and Shaoli, right? I think it's better to let them return to the capital."
Although he was dull, he felt a little uncomfortable when he saw Yan Shaoli grow up from a girl who had never done housework to someone skilled in cooking and boiling water. After all, she was his sister who he had watched grow up, and he still hoped that her life could be better.
"Go back to the capital?! Can we go back?" Yan Shaoli opened his eyes wide, held his breath slightly, and looked a little nervous.
Yan Shaoyu raised his eyes and glanced at her. Yan Shaoyang beside him was very calm, as if it made no difference to him whether he returned to the capital or not. He sighed slightly and then said lightly, "It was left by my mother."
When Yan Shaoyang and Yan Shaoli heard this, they were shocked: "Mom? Mom left it?"
"The incident happened suddenly, but mom seemed to have anticipated it and left some money for us." Yan Shaoyu narrowed his eyes slightly, thinking of the situation at that time, his lips were tightly pursed, and his slender fingers were clenched.
[“Shao Yu, the Yan family has made too many enemies. The situation in the capital has become increasingly tense recently. I’m afraid a storm is about to come. Take this money. If anything happens to the Yan family, you will take your brother and sister-in-law and leave the capital. Got it?”]
Tears welled up in Yan Shaoli's eyes, and his throat choked up when he thought of his mother.
Yan Shaoyang was not feeling well either. Although he was the second child in the family, the Yan family had always believed in equal education and he had never been neglected. Ji Qing was also a very open-minded mother who would respect their hobbies and choices.
Yan Shaoyu was silent for a moment, then continued, "There were too many people in the capital who were targeting the Yan family, so I had no choice but to take you away. At that time, I thought about leaving the money in the capital so that I could buy a place to live after returning and let you go back to school."
In fact, there is another idea, which is to let Shaoyang and Shaoli understand that the Yan family has indeed fallen into decline and it is impossible to have the life they once had. Otherwise, if they go to the countryside with a large sum of money, can the two of them still grow?
Just as his mother Ji Qing said, the Yan family has too many enemies, and Yan Shaoyang and Yan Shaoli need to grow up as soon as possible and stand on their own, otherwise after returning to the capital, they will sooner or later be targeted by people with ulterior motives, and he will not be able to protect them from the wind and rain forever.
From the moment he chose to go to the battlefield, there was a possibility that he would die on the battlefield.
Yan Shaoli covered her face and sobbed. Yan Shaotang looked at her sister, pouted her little mouth, and started crying too.
Ji Weiqin felt sour in his heart when he saw this. He reached out and rubbed his eyes vigorously. He picked up the small iron box at his feet and handed it to Yan Shaoyu: "Here, Third Brother, I brought you the things you gave me at the beginning. Nothing is missing."
Yan Shaoyu nodded, his voice a little hoarse: "Thank you for your hard work."
Ji Weiqin looked unhappy: "Hey, what are you talking about? It's too much for our friendship to say this!"
Ling Jia was also upset. He stood up and looked at the house, saying, "Is this house newly built? The design is quite good. It looks like everything needed for a wedding has been decorated. Lao Ji and I came too late and didn't get to do any work!"
Yan Shaoli wiped his tears and laughed, "Brother Ling Jia, don't be discouraged. There is always something you can do."
Her eyes sparkled, and thinking of her mother's advance arrangements, her heart felt warm and her whole spirits were lifted.
Ling Jia smiled and shook his head, cupping his hands and saying, "Okay, I'll do whatever you arrange, okay? By the way, Third Brother, aren't Song Jinan, Huang Sheng and the others all in the countryside? Where are they? Why can't I see them?"
Logically speaking, they are all from the compound, and knowing they were coming, they should have come to join in the fun by now.
Before Yan Shaoyu could say anything, Yan Shaoli wrinkled his nose: "Huang Sheng is dead, don't you know?"
Hearing this, the smile on Ling Jia's face faded slightly. Ji Weiqin's hand trembled and he knocked over the cup on the table. Huang Sheng is dead?
They really didn't know about this. They usually stayed in the military area near the capital and seldom went home. This time, they only managed to get leave after receiving Yan Shaoyu's letter. They really didn't know that such a big thing had happened.
Just as Yan Shaoli was about to explain, the sound of a car shutting down was heard outside.
Yan Shaoyu frowned, stood up and walked out, Ling Jia and Ji Weiqun also hurriedly followed him out.
Outside the house, everyone looked at the car parked next to the Gu family's courtyard.
Wang Meihua looked puzzled and said sourly, "I don't know what's going on today. Normally, you can hardly see a single car in the county town. Why are they all heading to our brigade today? Are they here to give gifts to the Gu family again?"
