Yuan Qihua, who had gone to another city for an exchange meeting, only learned from Liu Gang that his cousin-in-law had been kidnapped after he returned. He rushed to the Han family to visit He Yuhan.
The kidnapping of He Yuhan was not widely publicized, and not many people knew about it. After all, in this era, gossip can be a powerful force. Although He Yuhan was the victim, there would definitely be people who would say unpleasant things, so it was better to keep it a secret.
Yuan Qihua breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that He Yuhan was alright, and said angrily, "These people from the second branch of the family are truly hateful. They have done so many bad things, and they should be punished."
"I wasn't home when something happened, my cousin should have let me know. I could have helped out."
Han Yixian said, "That exchange meeting was very important, how could you miss it? Besides, even if you came back, you wouldn't be of much help. Now that everything is resolved, there's nothing more to worry about."
How did the exchange go?
Yuan Qihua said, "It went very smoothly. Our pharmaceutical factory is now quite famous. I estimate that many people will come to our factory to learn and inspect in the future, and the demand for our medicines will definitely exceed the supply. After all, the production volume of medicines is still too small."
I see that the equipment we just imported has been installed and debugged, and production has increased significantly. This is really good news.
I heard from people at the factory that Brother Gu found an expert who helped solve the problem and successfully completed the equipment installation and debugging. It's a real pity I didn't get to meet that expert; apparently, she's a woman, which is quite impressive.
Then Yuan Qihua relayed all the praise He Yuhan had received from the factory's technicians.
He Yuhan listened to the praise and couldn't help but chuckle.
Han Yixian laughed and said, "Want to see that female expert? Isn't that easy? Don't you see her all the time?"
Yuan Qihua was confused by his cousin's words. He was completely bewildered. When had he ever met that expert?
Yuan Qihua, seeing his cousin-in-law covering her mouth and laughing, suddenly realized something, widened his eyes, pointed at He Yuhan and said, "Cousin, could the expert that Brother Gu found be your cousin-in-law?"
Han Yixian laughed and said, "You've got a good eye, kid. It was your cousin-in-law and me who disguised ourselves and went to the factory with Qi Shen to help install and debug the equipment. But it was all thanks to your cousin-in-law; I was just accompanying her."
Yuan Qihua exclaimed in surprise, "Wow, sister-in-law, you're amazing! But it's not surprising that you, who can design such advanced engineering machinery, would also understand pharmaceutical equipment. I just didn't think of it at the time."
Han Yixian said, "The reason your cousin and I disguised ourselves is that we don't want anyone to know our identities. We don't want to be too high-profile. You just need to know this yourself, and you have to keep it a secret from us."
Yuan Qihua knew, of course, that his cousin and his wife didn't like to be in the limelight, so he quickly nodded and said, "I know, I'll definitely keep it a secret."
Wen Jinyu said from the side, "Qihua, when are you and Yuting planning to get married? Your mother has been thinking about it for a long time."
Upon hearing about his marriage, Yuan Qihua blushed slightly and chuckled, "Yuting and I have discussed it and are planning to get married in the fall. Right now, I'm extremely busy at the lab and can't think about the wedding for the time being."
Wen Jinyu said, "You're busy with work, so we'll help you prepare. There are so many people in the family, you don't need to worry about it."
Han Xiao also said, "That's right. With so many people in your family helping you prepare, your cousin has already bought the house next door to use as your wedding home. He's just about to find someone to tidy it up. Go back and see if you have any requirements so we can make changes according to your wishes."
Yuan Qihua exclaimed with great joy, "My cousin bought me a house next to yours? That's wonderful! Now I'll be your neighbor!"
Han Xiao said, "If you'd like, you can open a small door in the wall; that would make it easier for you to come and go."
Wen Jinyu said, "If you and Yuting don't want to cook, you can come to our house for meals. We can also take care of you when you have children. In addition, Yuting's family is in this city, so you'll have someone to help you when you have children."
Yuan Qihua was deeply moved to hear how considerate his uncle and aunt had been of him. Having family around him made him feel very secure.
Yuan Qihua said, "Thank you, Uncle and Aunt, thank you, Cousin and Cousin's wife. You've all been so thoughtful."
Wen Jinyu said, "We're all family, no need for thanks. Since you're planning to get married in the fall, we'll start making preparations for you. I'll also discuss it with the Cui family and tell your mother."
Han Xiao said, "You and your cousin can go take a look at the house later and see if there's anything that needs to be changed."
Yuan Qihua became interested upon hearing this. That would be his future home, so of course he wanted to take a good look at it. "Shall we go take a look now? Cousin and cousin-in-law, please give me some suggestions."
He Yuhan said, "Then I'll go with you to take a look."
After saying that, the three of them got up and went to the next room.
The house has a small courtyard, but it's much smaller than the Han family's. There are three main rooms, two side rooms, and a kitchen in the courtyard, and it's quite nice overall. Moreover, the house is usually well maintained and kept very clean.
There is also a small backyard behind the house, which is adjacent to the Han family's backyard.
Han Yixian originally wanted to find a house elsewhere to buy for his cousin as a wedding home, but it just so happened that the family next door was transferring to leave City C and wanted to sell the house, so Han Yixian bought it without hesitation and prepared it for his cousin to live in.
That way, when my cousin gets married and becomes their neighbor, they can look after each other.
After looking around, Yuan Qihua said happily, "This house is really nice; it's perfect for Yuting and me."
He Yuhan said, "It's much more convenient to have a back door in this living room. We'll build a boiler room and a bathroom in the back later, and install a traditional earthen heating system. In winter, we won't have to light a stove in the house. It'll be both clean and safe."
