Seeing them passing it around, Luo Wanru said to Yao Tongjia, "They're so sincere, just accept it and get Xinyue cured!"
Yao Tongjia's lips twitched: "Big sister, do you know how much money they gave? They gave 1 million M yuan. You know, foreign exchange was extremely rare at that time."
If she were to exchange that million, it would surely alert the person above her. She suddenly felt that the check was a hot potato: "Auntie, you've given me way too much!"
Su Wanqing firmly stuffed the check into Yao Tongjia's hand: "To me, Yueyue is the priceless treasure of our family. Over the years, we have taken her all over the world to seek medical treatment."
"The money spent was countless, but not a single doctor said they could cure her illness. But you cured her without charging a single penny!"
“Auntie, I am very grateful to you. I know that the country is short of foreign exchange right now. If you ask your family to hand over this foreign exchange, your family will definitely benefit.”
Wu Xingyao nodded: "If you can cure our Yueyue, even if it means going bankrupt, our family is willing to do it. Besides, it's only 1 million yuan."
"For a family like ours, this is really nothing. Please accept it without worry!"
Seeing their sincerity, Yao Tongjia nodded and said, "Then I thank you, Uncle and Aunt. I will make the most of this foreign exchange and also convey your message to the higher-ups!"
"Our country will take off in the future, and we welcome you to come back and invest!"
Wu Xingyao nodded: "Our old man has been hoping that we brothers could come back and invest. If you can cure our baby this time, we will definitely come back to invest!"
Yao Tongjia knew that many people were forced to flee due to circumstances, but many still had their hearts set on the country. She put away the check, bowed to Su Wanqing and Wu Xingyao, and said, "Then I thank you in advance!"
Under the influence of this era, Yao Tongjia felt that her heart was no longer dwelling on her past. Her heart seemed to be more open, and she would do her best to do what she could for the country.
After class, Yao Tongjia took the check to Teacher Xue. When Teacher Xue saw the amount on the check, she was so shocked that she dropped it on the ground: "Why did you accept so much?"
Yao Tongjia relayed their words to Teacher Xue verbatim, and Teacher Xue quickly stuffed the check into Yao Tongjia's hand: "Then you can handle the check, I'll pretend I don't know anything about it!"
"The clinic doesn't want the money anymore?" Yao Tongjia was genuinely surprised!
Teacher Xue reacted as if she had seen a monstrous flood: "You can handle this money. Just pretend I never saw it."
After class, Yao Tongjia returned home and had no choice but to call her father's office. Since her mother started studying there, her father often made do in his office.
When Ruan Shengpeng received the call from his daughter, he was visibly pleased: "Tongtong, what brings you to call me?"
They say you don't call someone unless you need something, but this daughter of mine never calls unless there's something important to say!
Hearing Ruan Shengpeng's sarcastic remark, Yao Tongjia laughed and said, "I'll have my mom call you later. I need to talk to you now. I received a check for 1 million M yuan!"
"So much money? You, you, why don't you wait a minute, I'm coming over now, you wait until I get there and we'll talk!" After saying that, Ruan Shengpeng slammed down the phone!
The speed was so fast, as if afraid that Yao Tongjia would say another word. Yao Tongjia held the phone that was emitting a busy tone and immediately burst out laughing. This dad seems to be getting cuter and cuter!
Xiao Gengwu had just walked up to the third floor when he saw Yao Tongjia holding a phone, laughing so happily: "Who are you talking to on the phone and laughing so happily?"
The tone was a little sarcastic, which made Yao Tongjia even happier. She put down the phone, sat on the sofa, and burst out laughing.
Seeing Yao Tongjia laughing so happily, Xiao Gengwu also started to laugh. So when Yao Tongxu and He Jiale came up, they saw the two usually very composed people laughing like idiots.
Yao Tongxu pressed, "What are you two laughing about? Tell us too!"
Yao Tongjia shook her head: "Axu, go downstairs and tell Mom to cook more rice, Dad is coming over!"
"Why is he suddenly coming over? Isn't he busy? Mom called him at noon and asked about it."
"He was attracted by my check!"
"What check? Let me see it!"
"You yell it out on the stairs first, so we don't have to cook it all over again later!"
Yao Tongxu readily complied, shouting on the stairs that his father was coming over, and rushed over to grab the check. He Jiale grabbed his hand, saying, "Be careful, this is a check for 1 million US dollars, it's very valuable!"
"What? A check for 1 million US dollars? That much? Did you rob someone to get it, sis?"
Yao Tongjia couldn't help but laugh again: "Now you know why Dad came over, right? When he heard I had a check for 1 million M yuan, he was so scared that he didn't dare to say another word and hung up the phone!"
Everyone immediately understood. They knew that the military region's phones were being tapped, so if Yao Tongjia really obtained it through illegal means...
Wasn't that like walking into a trap? Ruan Shengpeng was so frightened that she immediately hung up the phone, and her father rushed over to see if his daughter had gone to rob someone.
Soon they heard the car stop: "Sis, you really scared Dad so much he started speeding. Don't you think he's being a bit reckless with passengers?"
Yao Tongjia thought for a moment and said, "I also think he came alone. Do you want to take a gamble?"
He Jiale and Xiao Gengwu both shook their heads: "We also think he came back alone!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Ruan Shengpeng's voice rang out: "Tongtong, are you upstairs?"
Yao Tongjia waved the check: "This one is more appealing. Let's go see if our Deputy Commander Ruan came alone!"
When they came down, Deputy Commander Ruan looked like he'd been pulled out of the water, covered in sweat. Yao Yanxin was wiping his sweat with a towel: "You still think you're young? You don't even know how to wipe all that sweat off?!"
Normally, Ruan Shengpeng would definitely try to bring up suggestive topics to distract Yao Yanxin, but at this moment he was extremely anxious and had no interest in doing so.
She took the towel and said, "I can dry myself. I'm a little hungry. Could you go get me something to eat?"
Seeing Yao Tongjia come downstairs, Ruan Shengpeng tried his best to wink and make faces, hoping that Yao Tongjia would go upstairs. Unfortunately, Yao Tongjia and Yao Tongxu just kept looking at their father and winking, but they just wouldn't cooperate!
Now Yao Yanxin also sensed something was wrong: "What are you three hiding from me? Is there something I can't know?"
Yao Yanxin's smile vanished, and Ruan Shengpeng immediately dared not hide anything from his wife: "Sit down and listen to what Tongtong has to say!"
Yao Yanxin's expression changed drastically: "You two, the two of you..."
As Yao Yanxin spoke, she glanced at Tongtong's stomach.
