When Chen Kun saw Sun Yuqi come in, he put down the book in his hand and looked at Sun Yuqi.
"Girl, what do you think?"
Sun Yuqi knew that her grandfather was worried about her. After all, the disadvantages of a couple living apart outweigh the advantages, and her grandfather naturally didn't want her and Mu Jingran to live apart.
"Grandpa, I just talked to Jingran and decided to follow the organization's arrangements. However, we will go get the marriage certificate in a few days."
Chen Kun also knew that he couldn't stop it, so he stopped dwelling on it. However, he still asked,
"Grandpa actually understands what you're thinking. Just like he said, now is the time to rebuild everything. But the conditions there will definitely be very difficult. You have to be prepared for this, little girl."
Sun Yuqi walked over to Chen Kun and sat down, holding his hand.
"Grandpa, life in the Northeast was tough a few years ago, but we made it through, didn't we? You know I practice martial arts, so I really didn't take this little hardship seriously. How could it be tougher than working in the fields?"
Chen Kun was also sent down to the countryside in the past, so he naturally knew the hardships of the farmers. Then he thought that what his granddaughter said was not wrong. Being a teacher in the south would not be that hard, but the conditions would be worse and could not compare to here in Beijing.
"Yuqi, look at the current situation. The country is about to reform and open up, and the country's doors are open. Have you ever thought about going abroad to see your mother and others?"
Sun Yuqi didn't expect her grandfather to ask such a question, and she didn't know how to answer for a moment. After all, she had never thought about going abroad to see the so-called mother. Yes, she had never thought about it. Since the first life, they chose to send her to her adoptive mother and left the country to go overseas, she no longer had any relationship with them.
Sun Yuqi looked at Chen Kun's evasive eyes and smiled gently. She knew why her grandfather asked this. He was afraid that if those people came back to recognize her, they would take her away from the country and go overseas.
“Grandpa, don’t worry. My maternal grandfather’s surname is Sun, my mother’s name is Sun Meijuan, and my surname is Sun all my life. It’s impossible for me to have the surname Shen.”
"Besides, I promised to provide for your old age, Grandpa, so I won't leave you."
Chen Kun felt a little embarrassed when his granddaughter revealed his thoughts, and he coughed twice in embarrassment.
"Well, it's getting late. You should go to bed! I, an old man, need to rest too."
Seeing that her grandfather was embarrassed, Sun Yuqi smiled and stood up.
"Grandpa, go to bed early too. The weather is getting a bit hot. Be careful at night. If you really can't stand it, just turn on the fan. Don't make yourself suffer just to save a few dollars on electricity."
Chen Kun nodded.
"Well, go back to sleep quickly. I will use the electric fan, so you don't have to worry about it."
Sun Yuqi stood up and walked out, closing the door. It was a month ago that Lin Muren came back from the south and brought back several electric fans. Sun Yuqi directly asked for four of them, two for herself, and the remaining two for Grandpa Mu and Grandma Sun.
Now Chen Hao and Lin Muren's business is to sell some daily necessities from the south to the north. Their business is doing well. From the second semester of their sophomore year to now, they have made a lot of money. At the beginning, Sun Yuqi also followed them to do it, but Sun Yuqi seemed to have no talent in this area, so after following them a few times, Sun Yuqi stopped following them and chose to buy shares and get dividends every year. In this way, after two or three years, Sun Yuqi also made tens of thousands of yuan.
Sun Yuqi used the dividend money to buy two more courtyard houses nearby. Now, in addition to the two houses in Zhonghai City, Sun Yuqi owns seven courtyard houses in Beijing City, plus a small second-floor house and three shops.
Now Sun Yuqi is not planning to buy another courtyard house. She feels that it is enough and she should stop. It is 1981 now and the housing prices have increased a lot compared with previous years.
In July, Sun Yuqi got her job and was assigned to a high school in Beijing as a history teacher. Sun Yuqi was quite satisfied with this. After all, just as she thought, as a teacher, she still had a few months of vacation in the middle of the year.
Chen Kun is very satisfied with his granddaughter's job. As a teacher, she can have a stable income and live a peaceful life with a stable job.
Mu Jingran's transfer to a new job has also been finalized. He is now serving as deputy director of a public security bureau in a certain district of Beijing. However, this is just a formality, because the director is nearly sixty years old and will retire in one or two years. After Mu Jingran takes over, he will be in charge of the work of the entire public security bureau, because the old director has already hinted at handing over power.
At this point, Mu Jingran’s idea of going to work in the south was completely shattered, and he had no choice but to report to the unit.
Mu Jingran went to work, but Sun Yuqi could still rest for nearly two months. There was no other way, as it was the summer vacation for students and the school was not in session. Sun Yuqi was very satisfied as she could stay at home and accompany her grandfather.
Chen Kun’s business is not very good now, but every customer who wants to dine here needs to make a reservation in advance, because Chen Kun is old and can only cook one table of dishes every day.
Sun Yuqi tried to persuade her grandfather many times to stop cooking and just rest, but the old man refused to do so. He insisted on cooking a table of dishes every day. After repeated persuasion without success, Sun Yuqi stopped trying. Perhaps for her grandfather, cooking a table of dishes every day is considered a fulfilling day! Besides, cooking is also his grandfather's hobby.
Lu Yao also graduated, but she went to work at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Because she spoke English very well, she went to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and worked as a translator for her leader.
The Zhang Jianlin brothers had to wait another year before they could graduate. Although they only started college half a year later than Sun Yuqi and her friends, they were still one year late.
Sun Yuqi woke up early in the morning, had breakfast and sat in the yard reading a book, but Grandpa Chen came back from the restaurant in the front yard, carrying some vegetables and meat in his hands.
"Girl, we have a table full of guests today. Grandpa is going to prepare it. Oh, and isn't Jingran going to report today? I'll make dinner later, and you can take him to the Public Security Bureau. And let his colleagues get to know you, so that they won't recognize you when we go to him later."
Sun Yuqi blinked in confusion and asked.
"Grandpa, there's no need! He's going to work, why should I go?"
Chen Kun rolled his eyes to the sky and sighed helplessly.
"Girl, Jing Ran is almost thirty now. There must be young and beautiful girls in their unit. What if he gets seduced away by someone else? You, go and claim the ownership first."
After listening to her grandfather's call, Sun Yuqi was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. Her grandfather had a very rich imagination.
"Grandpa, from what you said, he's not that kind of person. If he were that kind of person, he would have been looking for him all these years ago. Why would he wait until now?"
