Chapter 287: Newcomers, Abandoning the Old



When we arrived at Li's house, the courtyard gate had already been opened and the main door of the house was ajar, not closed tightly.

Yan Ziyuan knocked on the door twice symbolically, then walked in with Song Fuyu.

"Uncle Li, we are here."

Li Yunhua, who was sitting on the sofa in the living room, heard the voice and looked towards them.

"Finally they're here. Your Aunt Wu almost went to your house to call for help."

"It's because I was at home getting you some wine, so I came a little late."

"Here, I brought you a bottle of medicinal wine made by my wife herself."

"Hey, yes, that's exactly what I want."

"Why don't you introduce yourself?"

"This is my wife Song Fuyu, Xiaoyu, this is Commander Li."

"Why call me Master Li? That's too formal. Call me Uncle Li."

"Hello Uncle Li~"

"Hello, please sit down, don't stand anymore."

"When you come to Uncle Li's house, just treat it like your own home. Don't be shy. This kid never treats our house as an outsider. Every time he comes, he acts more like the host than I do."

"Okay, don't worry, I won't be shy."

From the moment they entered the door, Li Yunhua had been secretly looking at Song Fuyu in front of him. He was much better than he had imagined.

The little girl was not at all shy when she saw him, and treated him politely, just like an ordinary elder.

The attitude is neither overly intimate nor distant.

But think about it, how could someone who is recognized by the Yan family have any problems in dealing with people?

Hearing the sound from the living room, Wu Hong came out of the kitchen wearing an apron.

Looking at Song Fuyu's cute and lovely appearance, I immediately fell in love with her.

She had always dreamed of having a chubby little girl, but in the end she only had two boys. She wanted to have another daughter, but unfortunately she injured her body when giving birth to her second child and was never able to get pregnant again.

"Xiao Yu, this is Aunt Wu."

"Hello, Aunt Wu~"

"Okay, okay, you guys sit for a while. There's one last dish left and we can eat soon."

"Thank you Aunt Wu~"

"It's not hard. I'm so happy that you guys can come to eat."

During the meal, Li Yunhua opened the medicinal wine brewed by Song Fuyu and poured a glass for himself and Yan Ziyuan respectively.

"Are the old chief and his wife in good health?"

"It's fine. My grandma is still nagging you and Aunt Wu to come to our house for dinner when you go to Beijing."

"I would like to go, but I just haven't found the opportunity."

"Have a baby quickly, and then bring the old couple over to live with you for a while."

"Uncle Li, if you don't induce labor, we can still have a good relationship."

"Okay, no rush, no rush. You have your own ideas about everything you do."

"Xiao Yu, ignore your Uncle Li, he's just a chatterbox."

"You're welcome, help yourself to the food."

"Okay, I'll pick it up, Aunt Wu, you can eat it too."

Aunt Wu gave her the feeling of a woman from the south of the Yangtze River, gentle and graceful like jade, and it was very comfortable to get along with her.

"Our two families are so close, if you don't mind, you can come and chat with me when you are free."

"It should be you, Aunt Wu, who doesn't dislike me. I will definitely come to bother you more often in the future. Please don't think I'm annoying."

"How could I find you annoying? I wish you would come more often."

"I'm usually alone at home, and I'm almost bored to death."

"Your Uncle Li is rarely at home during the day, and your brother and sister-in-law rarely come back. Even if they do, they can't stay for more than two days before they have to go out to work. Most of the time, I am the only one guarding this house."

"Uncle Li, you need to reflect on this."

Yan Ziyuan smiled and raised his glass to him.

How could Li Yunhua not hear his wife's complaints, but given his position, he couldn't stay at home for a long time, and in this regard he did treat his wife badly.

"Xiao Yu will accompany me from now on. You old man, go find a place to stay by yourself."

“Ahem~~”

"Mother, you can't abandon the old one just because you have a new one."

Wu Hong looked at her husband's resentful expression and couldn't help laughing.

From the day she decided to marry him and become a military wife, she was actually prepared for her husband to be away from home most of the time.

When you are young, you are in good health and can still work.

Later one day, he suddenly fainted while working and was hospitalized for a while.

After she was discharged from the hospital, Mr. Li and his two children refused to let her continue working no matter what.

Sometimes I do complain that my husband doesn’t have time to spend with me, but when I think of his contributions to the country, I feel very proud.

"Old Li, has the army recently recruited family workers?"

"Not yet. The school may recruit teachers in the second half of the year, but it's not certain. We need to wait for news."

"Xiao Yu, you have studied in junior high school, right? You can prepare for the next six months. If you have any ideas, you can take part in the school's job recruitment exam."

Wu Hong has been a military wife for decades and knows best how lonely it is to be alone at home.

They don't have any children yet, so if she had a job to pass the time, the days would pass much faster. Otherwise, she would be worried about her husband's safety all day long, which would be very torturous over time.

“Aunt Wu, thank you for your kindness, I actually have a job.”

"After dinner, please spare some time for me, Uncle Li. I still need to discuss my work with you."

"no problem."

Although he didn't know what she wanted to communicate, Li Yunhua agreed very readily.

After dinner, Wu Hong went to the kitchen to wash the dishes, and the other three of them sat in the living room and began to discuss things.

Song Fuyu asked Yan Ziyuan to take out the cooperation letter from his pocket and motioned him to hand it to Uncle Li.

Li Yunhua took it and read it slowly and carefully page by page.

"Are you setting up a factory in cooperation with the Beijing Military Region?"

"Yes, we have been working together for several months."

"During the cooperation period, our factory mainly earns foreign exchange, while the clothing production is entrusted to Qinshi Garment Factory."

"This time I am communicating with you mainly to recruit workers for the army here, and I need your approval."

In fact, Father Yan could make the decision directly on this kind of matter, but Grandpa Yan said that Commander Li cannot be skipped. After all, the troops here are under his jurisdiction, and even if they want to recruit military dependents, they need to inform him first.

No matter what you do, it is best not to bypass your supervisor's authority, as this will make others feel disrespected.

"Currently, the recruitment targets are mainly for military families here. The job content is to make sample clothes and clothes that need to be specially customized in the order."

“This is a good thing!”

There are many family members accompanying the troops, but the army can only provide a few jobs for them, and many of them are idle at home.

He would be happy if this factory could help solve the employment problems of some military families.

If people have something to do, they won't cause trouble all the time, and they will hear fewer complaints.

"In response to this, Chief Yan allocated a portion of the dividends to us."

She asked Yan Ziyuan to hand over another cooperation letter.

This was the result of careful consideration when Yan's father and she renegotiated the contract in Beijing.
