Yan Xiaonan went upstairs, and the upstairs was completely different from the downstairs. It was similar to Xue Honggen's place, with five or six rooms, a reception hall, and a dining room.
Enming heard her mother's voice and ran out of her room. She grabbed Yan Xiaonan's hand and pulled her into the room. The room was very simple, with a table, a chair, and a cabinet, and nothing else.
Looking at the simple house, Yan Xiaonan felt a pang of heartache. Her Enming had never suffered since birth.
Enming, however, smiled without a care in the world. He excitedly led Yan Xiaonan on a tour of every room on the second floor, including his and his master's bedroom, his and his master's study, and a small storage room.
Yan Xiaonan was somewhat frustrated. The bedroom only had a bed and a cabinet, and the storage room only had some bedding and blankets. Every room was so simple. How could this be the place where a master lived? There wasn't even a kitchen. How were they supposed to cook?
Enming replied with a smile that there was no need to cook, as meals were delivered to them on time every day, and there was no need to do laundry, as clothes were taken out to be washed every day.
Sure enough, a little over an hour later, a car drove up, and then a soldier carrying two large baskets came in. He first called out "Report!" at the door, and after receiving a reply, he went straight upstairs.
There were two large lunchboxes in one basket. He first placed the two lunchboxes on the dining table, and then swapped the other basket with one next to the sofa. It turned out that he was bringing up the clean clothes and taking out the dirty ones.
Yan Xiaonan opened the lunchbox and saw that the food was good, with two meat dishes and two vegetable dishes, and the portions were quite large. At least Enming and Yan Xiaonan couldn't finish so much food.
Enming handed a lunchbox to Yan Xiaonan and opened one for herself: "Mom, time to eat."
Yan Xiaonan was taken aback: "Doesn't your master eat?"
Enming shook his head. He had been learning his craft here for four years, but he had never seen his master eat. However, he did not ask. Since his master did not say, he felt there was no need to ask.
Yan Xiaonan lowered her head and ate. The food tasted pretty good. With this kind of diet, Enming's nutrition was sufficient.
After dinner, Yan Xiaonan wanted to wash the lunchbox, but Enming stopped her: "Mom, they will take this lunchbox with them when they deliver dinner, so you don't need to wash it."
this……
In the afternoon, Enming was about to start her studies, and Yan Xiaonan was about to ask Master Yu for advice, but she suddenly felt very sleepy and fell asleep on the sofa.
When she woke up, the room was already dark. Yan Xiaonan was startled and called out, "Enming!"
No one answered. Yan Xiaonan felt something was wrong, so she recklessly extended her consciousness outwards, but there was no one in the entire room.
Finding the switch and turning on the light, the incandescent bulb illuminated every corner of the living room. Yan Xiaonan then turned on the doors and lights of every room, finally confirming that she was the only person in the house.
The basket next to the sofa was also gone. She remembered that the basket contained Enming's clean clothes. However, besides a lunchbox, there was another box on the dining table.
The lunchbox was still warm, so it must have just been served. Yan Xiaonan opened the box and found a few thin books and a letter inside. She quickly opened the letter and started reading.
"Hello Yan Xiaonan, I'm taking Enming with me. Give me twenty years, and I'll give you back a real superhuman. You should read the books in the box carefully; this is your future job."
Yan Xiaonan turned the letter over and over, but all she could see were those few words. She finally became certain that her youngest son had been kidnapped.
She picked up the phone and called Xue Honggen directly, telling him that Enming had been taken away by Master Yu. Xue Honggen remained silent for a long time before finally saying, "Nannan, what is meant to be will be."
Yan Xiaonan hung up the phone. Indeed, that Master Yu must be capable; otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to make her fall into a deep sleep without her realizing it.
There were four notebooks in the box. Except for the last one, the others only had a few pages. The first one was about the mechanisms of the house, and the second one was about the work she needed to do every day.
The third book contained her benefits for working here. The fourth book was the thickest; when she opened it, she found it contained the personal information of everyone on the mountain, down to how many medals they had received and how many children they had.
When Yan Xiaonan signed the contract, there was no mention of benefits at all. She opened it and glanced at it, finding the monthly salary somewhat unbelievable.
The monthly salary is 100,000 yuan, with a year-end bonus. In addition, there are various other benefits, including food, drink, and clothing. Most importantly, any work-related application can be approved.
Her job was to protect the lives of every elderly comrade on the mountain, except for those who died of natural causes or from leaving the mountain.
After understanding his job and benefits, Yan Xiaonan picked up the blueprint and began to study it carefully. Sure enough, the design of this house was ingenious and could definitely protect the people living inside from any external harm.
Yan Xiaonan was a little confused about whether she was protecting these people outside or Xia Guo was protecting her. 365 days a year, unless there were special reasons for applying to go down the mountain, she could not leave the mountain.
Well, since the contract has already been signed, Yan Xiaonan stopped worrying about it. She spent the whole night memorizing the mechanism diagram; she couldn't afford to make a mistake, or she would be the one to die.
Yan Xiaonan gradually got used to life on the mountain, but Tianru and Yushu down the mountain were already overwhelmed with work. The work that Yan Xiaonan used to share now all fell on their shoulders.
Ye Ren ended his retirement life and joined the management of the family business. It is said that an old general is worth two people, and Tianru and Yushu finally adapted.
A year later, Ye Chenming formally submitted his resignation. The Academy of Sciences was very unwilling to accept his resignation and talked to him several times, hoping that he could reconsider.
But Ye Chenming was determined to leave. He also frankly explained his difficulties. Nan Nan was on the mountain, protecting the meritorious people of Xia Kingdom, and could not come down the mountain at all. As her husband, he had a responsibility to accompany her.
The children still have schoolwork to complete, and as a father, he must support them with his actions. Although he may not be better at managing them than they are, at least he is managing them.
My grandfather is almost ninety years old. As his grandson, he has to fulfill his filial duty. How heartless do you have to make a nearly ninety-year-old man look at reports, attend meetings, and give summaries every day?
As for scientific research, his father, Ye Huili, is over sixty years old and still able to contribute in his position, so this aspect is left to his father.
