"Then thank you, Brother Yan."
Her words are as sweet as honey. Yan Rushan's heart is filled with honey, but he can't help but feel helpless. What can he do about his wife's habit? When she is happy, he feels that no matter how he treats her, it is not enough. When she is unhappy, let alone being sweet to her, he even pinches her.
"Why thank me? We have our own property. We've planted everything you like. We can't grow any fruit that's not suitable for Shangjing. We'll find you whatever we can."
After giving the order, Yan Rushan went to the company after breakfast. As soon as he sat down, he called his assistant and said, "Find me a dozen or so surviving fruit trees in Shangjing. Also, find out if there are any raspberries in Shangjing. If there are any, whether they are grown at home or in the mountains, buy them if anyone brings them to you."
Raspberries are hard to find in the north, so Yan Rushan added, "Ask someone in the south to look for them too. If there are any, preserve them and send them over. I'll pay you the same. Once you've collected a hundred or so, I'll call it a day."
"Okay, I'll ask someone to help find it right away." The assistant was a young man, a talent recruited by Yan Rushan from abroad, and he was offered a very high salary. Based on the current conditions, he was given an annual salary of 50,000, plus bonuses.
With his worries gone, Yan Rushan concentrated on handling official business, but he didn't know that as soon as he left, Yan Hejun and his wife came home.
Yan family.
Yan Guofeng and Zhong Yuxiu, the grandfather and grandson, couldn't help but be surprised when they saw the two of them. "Mom and Dad, you are back. When did you leave? Why didn't you tell us and let Brother Yan pick you up?" The two of them were carrying large and small bags in their hands. They were dusty and looked not in good spirits.
"We took the train yesterday. How could we not have come back if we had legs? There's no need to tire you out running around." Yan's mother laughed heartily, putting the things in her hands where they were. Her eyes were fixed on her three eldest grandsons, and her legs walked over there uncontrollably. "Oh, my third and eldest grandson, you've grown fat again! Look at your arms and legs, they're full of flesh, so nice to touch."
She picked up one and kissed him, then kissed the other two on the face. Fortunately, the old man was not holding his great-grandson, otherwise Yan's mother would not be able to kiss him.
"Grandma's eldest grandchildren miss her so much."
"ah......."
Li Ming in her arms clenched his fists and landed his punches on her forehead. The blows made Yan's mother gasp in pain, but she wasn't angry. She grabbed the little kid's hand and kissed him. After the kiss, she didn't forget to say to her husband, "You're really strong! My grandson is really strong! He hit me so hard that it hurt."
Yan Hejun was also envious. He put down the things he was carrying, walked to the crib, picked up one at random, shook it, and said seriously.
"Yeah, he's got a strong body and heavy hands."
Yan Guofeng smiled and accepted their sudden return in a positive way. "They can eat and sleep well, so how can they not be strong? They change every day when you are not around." They looked a little fatter than before his son and daughter-in-law left.
Yan Hejun nodded seriously, agreeing with his father. "Dad is right. Children change every day. You'll feel different if you don't see them for two days. Not to mention when we're gone for months."
"That's right. How many days of leave did you take this time?" Yan Guofeng asked.
Yan Hejun replied, "It's only ten days of vacation, including annual leave. I'm afraid I won't be able to come back for the New Year this year. Fortunately, we are not here, and Dashan and Yuxiu can stay at home with you." So you won't be lonely.
Glancing at them, Yan Guofeng showed no dissatisfaction, but only frowned slightly, but then relaxed after a moment.
"The army has its own rules. You are in the army, so you must follow the army's discipline. I'm fine at home, and Dashan and his wife are here, so you don't have to worry about me." After a pause, he continued, "Yuxiu and Dashan are both very considerate. I've been eating and sleeping well recently, and I feel better and better. You should focus on your work in the army. If you can get a promotion, then do it. Our family doesn't need you to stay in one position."
The Yan family crisis was over, and there was no class background issue. Previously, the Yan family had to keep a low profile, and Yan Hejun's wife was the daughter of a capitalist, so she couldn't stand out too much. Times had changed, and class background no longer mattered. It was time for Yan Hejun to move up.
Yan Hejun's stern face relaxed slightly, and there was no sign of abnormality afterwards. "Dad, I know what's going on about this, don't worry about me. I have enough qualifications and military merits, so it won't be difficult to get promoted." He knew from a young age that his father was a hero and lived under his father's heroic halo. He enjoyed many conveniences when he was a child, and enjoyed even more as an adult. He never felt anything because of the conveniences he enjoyed, and he felt it was normal, whether good or bad.
What matters in the army is strength. With my father's connections, I can only say that I can be promoted faster and won't be suppressed.
For now, he was not going to keep a low profile anymore and had to rise up. The Yan family depended on him for support, and when his great-grandson came of age, he would hand over the Yan family to him.
Yan Guofeng only mentioned it briefly, and seeing that he understood, he stopped talking. "We'll be away for about two months this time. We asked you to come back because Yuxiu has made some new research findings. It just so happens that you can all use them, so we called you back to give them to you privately."
"What kind of results?" Are they still useful to them?
Yan Guofeng looked at Zhong Yuxiu.
Yuxiu smiled and said, "Mom and Dad, you guys chat first. I'll go upstairs and get something down."
"Go, go." Yan's mother was quite impatient. Yan Hejun was calm, but his seemingly calm eyes betrayed him; his gaze was fixed on Zhong Yuxiu, as if he was waiting for her to take the things down.
Zhong Yuxiu chuckled and went upstairs. When she came back a while later, she had two watches on her hands.
The strict mother and father were confused and asked, "A watch?"
"It's a watch." Yan Guofeng laughed heartily. "Don't underestimate this small watch. It's very useful. Yuxiu put a lot of effort into it. Not only you have one, but my three children, Dashan and Xiaohai also have one."
Zhong Yuxiu walked forward and gave one piece to each of them.
Yan's mother took it in her hands and looked at it over and over again, but she couldn't see the point of it for a long time.
Yan Guofeng smiled and said, "The watch can be used to identify the owner by recording fingerprints. When worn, it will automatically activate its defense function when in danger. You will know once you try it."
"Is it so magical?" Yan's mother immediately put the child down, took Yuxiu's hand and asked, "Yuxiu, which finger do you use for fingerprint identification?"
"It's up to you. Any fingerprint on the tip of any finger will do." Zhong Yuxiu took the watch, picked up Yan's mother's hand, and flipped the switch while pulling her hand to press against the back of the watch. The watch automatically sounded a message, "Defense 5 is activated, and the owner has successfully recognized you. Defense 5 will be at your service. Please trust your safety to me."
The sound is not good, but it is novel enough.
Seeing her daughter-in-law put the watch on her wrist, Yan's mother tried to move her wrist and it was very flexible.
"Yuxiu, what next?"
Zhong Yuxiu patiently instructed them on how to use it and what functions were inside the protective shield. After the strict mother, it was the strict father's turn. Zhong Yuxiu patiently taught them. The strict mother couldn't let go of the protective watch as she touched it. A smile also appeared in the eyes of the strict father.
