Yu Yin told her about the matter to her right-hand men, and they gave her some feasible suggestions.
There's strength in numbers, that's true!
That evening, Yu Yin talked about this with Lu Shurui, and he was very supportive.
"Yinyin, are you planning to go to Yunnan Province on your own?" Lu Shurui didn't know what Yu Yin was planning, but he had a somewhat immature idea.
"I am planning to do that. I was thinking of going myself the first time so I can adjust the plan as needed. What are your thoughts?"
“I was thinking, should I take the children to see it? Let them see the place where they were born, and see that there are still people in this world who are helpless and live very hard lives. Our children have always lived a very wealthy life, and they should see that there are many different kinds of scenery in this world.”
Yu Yin hadn't expected Lu Shurui to say these things; she had memories of her past life! Back then, every child was a little princess or prince. Although there were some left-behind children in remote areas, most children lived a life where everything was done for them.
Yu Yin feels that her four children are already very independent. They tidy their own rooms, go to school by themselves, and come home by themselves. They do their own things and can also help their family with some things. She is very proud of them.
However, Yu Yin forgot that this was the 1980s, and most children were key children. They would wear keys around their necks when they went to school, and after school, they would go home by themselves, open the door, go inside to do their homework, and some might even have to cook dinner.
The fact that Lu Shurui was able to say this shows that the children in the family do need to know some realities.
“We can't leave until around October at the earliest. We can ask them for leave then. Their studies are all good, so a few days off won't make a difference. Besides, there's you, their doctoral student, right, Dr. Lu?” Yu Yin teased with a smile, her eyes shining.
"Yinyin, since you came back from Yang City, you've opened up a lot more. You're joking around so naturally now, which is really nice!"
"Really? Then I'll smile more from now on. A smile makes you ten years younger, while worry makes you grow old." Yu Yin also felt much more relaxed after returning from her hometown. The most obvious change was that she rarely dreamed at night, and her sleep improved a lot.
The two of them shared many heartfelt thoughts and both felt it was a very good experience.
After discussing it, Yu Yin and A Xiang decided to purchase the fabric and cotton directly from the manufacturer. A Xiang would then organize the production process to make the finished products, which would then be delivered to the orphanage. This way, they could provide targeted assistance to the children in the orphanage.
Ah Xiang thought this was a good idea. It could not only help the children in the orphanage, but also help some housewives. Making a piece of clothing could earn them a considerable amount of money.
Once Yu Yin had finalized the arrangements, she instructed Brother Liang to investigate the situation at various cotton mills and purchase a batch of economical and affordable cotton fabric to be shipped to Yunnan Province. She also wanted to inquire about the availability of cotton.
Things are proceeding at a rapid pace. The four children have started school. An'an and Pingping are in their third year of junior high school, and Kuai Kuai and Manman are in their sixth year. They have all reached a critical point, and it is unclear whether it will be easy to ask for leave.
Before leaving, Yu Yin convened a meeting with the heads of various factories and shops to make some arrangements. She told them that if anything happened, they should come to the factory to find Brother Liang. He Haifeng and Zhong Liang also accompanied her this time.
He Haifeng went to develop the market on his way, and Zhong Liang needed to understand the relevant matters, as he would also be involved in these matters in the future.
Because she was traveling with her child and needed to inventory supplies upon arrival, Yu Yin also brought Lin Dong and two colleagues from the security department. Their high combat skills ensured their safety. Although the country had intensified its crackdown on crime this year, and a so-called "strike hard" had begun, it was still best to be prepared just in case.
Lu Shurui also took leave; he wanted to go back and see it. His youth was there; he'd spent almost ten years there.
The date was set for October 1st. Lu Shurui went to the school specifically to ask for leave for several children. The round trip would take several days, so they would need to ask for at least half a month's leave. Although the teacher was not very happy, given that An'an and the others had good grades, the teacher finally approved it.
After packing their luggage, Yu Yin and her family of six were ready to travel. Aunt Hu and Uncle Hu stayed behind, busy pickling vegetables and preparing other produce.
The group consisted of more than ten people. Yu Yin had booked sleeper berths; otherwise, she really couldn't have endured so many days. Since it was a business trip, all food and drinks were reimbursed, which made the sales and security personnel He Haifeng and his team quite happy, as none of them had ever been to Yunnan Province before.
He Haifeng had been there; he had traversed the primeval forest there during a mission before.
An'an enjoys chatting with He Haifeng. She loves listening to stories about the military and never gets tired of them, often pulling Pingping along to listen as well.
There were quite a few people on the train, but fortunately they were in sleeper berths. Yu Yin's family of six slept in six beds together, while the other people's berths were on either side of Yu Yin and her family, so they could look after each other.
They ate and drank along the way, and no one dared to mess with them. Yu Yin didn't see any human traffickers or thieves, or even anyone occupying a berth; they were probably scared off by them.
They arrived in Kunming without any problems, the place where Ah Xiang and the others are now living.
"Yinyin, over here!" Axiang waved at the station entrance, she was so happy, Yu Yin hadn't been back for six or seven years.
"Ah Xiang!"
The two connected and had a lot to say, but there was still a group of people to settle down first.
Ah Xiang took them to a relatively large guesthouse in the city. The environment was very nice, and most of the guests there were from the military region, so safety was guaranteed. This was all thanks to Yang Shu from Ah Xiang's family, who helped them book it.
