"Sister-in-law, do you know about Yu Anqi's mother? Which family is she from?"

"Aunt Yu?"

"Um."

"I'm not really sure about her family's specific situation. She's not from Beijing, but there's no doubt that her family must be average."

"What do you mean?"

Gu Yue quietly glanced around and saw that no one was at the table next to her. She leaned in and whispered, "It is said that Yu Boyuan was conceived before Aunt Yu and Uncle Yu got married. After the baby was born, the Yu family said it was a premature birth and it was inconvenient for him to see people. They didn't even hold a full-month banquet."

"You have not been in the compound for long, so you don't know the Yu family well."

"It's understandable that Mr. Yu could hold back and not say anything. But Mrs. Yu is usually a big mouth. She couldn't hold back and not say a word about the birth of her beloved grandson. Can there be something fishy going on here?"

"And I made a discovery of my own. I only told Dadong in our family, but he said I was talking nonsense."

Song Fuyu looked at her with some curiosity.

"Actually, I think Aunt Yu likes your father-in-law."

"ha?"

This discovery shocked Song Fuyu.

"I really discovered this by accident, probably about seven or eight years ago."

"At that time, Dadong and I were not married yet. My parents took me to attend your third brother's wedding. It was my first time in the compound, and I didn't know anyone at the time."

"I happened to see Aunt Yu's eyes following Uncle Yan. I was ignorant at the time, and I asked my mother if that was Aunt Yan. As a result, my mother scolded me and told me not to talk nonsense if my eyesight was not good."

"After I got married, I finally understood that it's just about liking the look in a person's eyes."

"Why tell me?"

She didn't think Gu Yue was really that unable to hide things. If she really couldn't hide it, why did she only tell Dadong about this matter?

"I heard from Dadong that the replacement of the eldest sister of the Yan family might be related to Aunt Yu. But he didn't hear it clearly, so he didn't know whether it was related or might be related."

"After much hesitation, I decided to tell you this. I don't know if it will be of any use, but I think if it has something to do with Aunt Yu, this may be the reason. After all, she and Uncle Yu were not married at the time."

"Thank you for telling me~"

In fact, whether she knew or not was not that important now, because Grandpa Yan had already made a plan. But I am still very grateful to Gu Yue for revealing the situation. I guess she was really struggling for a long time.

"You're welcome, but if there's something wrong, don't tell me."

"Don't worry, I will never mention you."

"That's good. I finally told this secret. I suddenly feel relieved."

These past two days, Gu Yue has been wondering whether or not to tell it, but she doesn’t know who in the Yan family to tell.

Song Fuyu was chosen in the end because she was Yan Ziyuan's daughter-in-law, and Dadong also said that Grandpa Yan liked her very much.

The two men in the Yan family who have a say both think so highly of her and were won over by her so quickly, so she must be extraordinary.

After dinner, the two returned to the compound.

I met Yu Anqi at the door, she was walking out.

Even Gu Yue didn't say hello to her, and pulled Song Fuyu straight into the courtyard.

"You and her should be fine, right? Why do you act like you didn't see anything?"

"Since the Hao family is clinging to the Yan family, as the granddaughter-in-law of the Hao family, I can't betray them in private. I guess I won't have a chance to say hello in the future."

"You have a very clear understanding."

"I call this a wise man who knows the current situation! Besides, look at her, she didn't even think of greeting me. It's a pity that she used to call me sister-in-law."

Song Fuyu felt that the reason why Yu Anqi didn't say hello to Gu Yue was most likely because she was next to her.

Yu Anqi disliked her so much, and seeing Gu Yue getting so close to her, she naturally classified Gu Yue as her kind.

But it doesn’t matter, Yu Anqi is just a passer-by in their lives anyway.

..........

After dinner, Yan's father called Song Fuyu to the study.

"Your proposal has been approved."

"Except for some profit concessions, the rest is as you wrote."

Father Yan handed her a piece of paper with the parts that needed to be changed written on it.

Song Fuyu took it and looked at it, and it was actually pretty much what she expected.

She had originally written in her plan that the dividends to be distributed to the troops would be 30% of the annual profits. According to her guess, she thought it would eventually increase to 50%.

The result was that the paper clearly stated 50 percent, exactly.

As for some other contents, they were all within her plan.

Of course, the most important point is that she also kept a trick for herself.

That is, in the plan, she wrote the first period of cooperation with the army, starting from now in 1974 to the end of 1978.

Once the cooperation period ends, we will discuss future cooperation later.

She was filled with joy after successfully completing this matter. However, it was inconvenient for her to show it in front of Yan's father, so she had been trying hard to hold it in.

"I accept it, and I'll do as it's written on the paper."

"I hope you will live up to the expectations of the troops and deliver a result that satisfies everyone."

"I will definitely fulfill my mission!"

When Yan's father submitted the application to the higher authorities, it was directly rejected as he expected.

After all, all factories are state-owned nowadays. Even if they have to share most of the profits with the army and recruit retired soldiers and military families as employees...that is something that breaks the norm.

He was Song Fuyu's father-in-law. In order to avoid suspicion, he could only submit it on her behalf and could not say too much in her favor.

In the end, it took five old men from the Hao, He, Jin, Lin, and Dong families to come forward as guarantors before the higher-ups reluctantly agreed to the matter.

There is no doubt that these five old men are doing this to save face for Grandpa Yan, otherwise, with Yan's father's status, it would not be enough to let five old men of such importance go out at the same time.

Father Yan was a little moved that his own father could do so much for Ziyuan's wife and even said not to let her know.

As Song Fuyu's father-in-law, he had to look up to her.

After coming out of the study, Song Fuyu said hello to his grandparents and went straight back to his room.

The next day, before Yan's father went to the army, he rushed out the newly revised plan.

"Did you write all night?"

Father Yan looked at her in disbelief, and at the obvious dark circles under her eyes.

"No, I finished it at about four o'clock."

"Why don't you have breakfast and then go to sleep?"

"No, I'm not sleepy."

She is still immersed in joy, as if she had signed a contract worth hundreds of millions in the future. She is full of energy, as if she had been injected with chicken blood.

After watching Yan's father get on the car to go to the military area, Song Fuyu turned and went into the house.

"Girl, go to Potato's house and ask Potato and his wife to come over for lunch."

Just when Grandpa Yan thought she would go out directly, he found that Song Fuyu did not make any move, but looked at him blankly.

"Why don't you go?"

"Grandpa, who is Potato?"
