Rebirth begins with marrying an educated youth

Chapter 657 New Year’s greetings

Although Ji Yuanhai said this, the villagers in Xiaoshantun still became reserved.

Even Uncle Qi, the village secretary, was hesitant, fearing that he would anger Ji Yuanhai.

Wang Zhuyun also got out of the car, but because of Ji Yuanhai's identity, no one asked too many questions - Ji Yuanhai was already the deputy county magistrate, and it was not normal for him to be surrounded by subordinates.

Ji Yuanhai sat at home for a while and didn't even eat the lunch he had prepared.

There were curious people inside and outside the house who had come to hear the news. They were all fellow villagers and it was too embarrassing to drive them away.

Besides, grandparents, parents and parents were all enjoying themselves, and they would never ruin such an honorable occasion. They even asked Ji Yuanshan to set off a string of firecrackers at the door.

Ji Yuanhai had no choice but to cooperate in talking to his family, and more importantly, to his fellow villagers.

By around three o'clock in the afternoon, most of the villagers had had enough of the fun and gradually dispersed.

Ji Yuanhai left the gifts he brought and said goodbye to his family.

At this point, grandparents suddenly realized what was happening and felt reluctant to let go.

"Yuan Hai, are you leaving now? Why don't you stay a few more days? It's Chinese New Year..."

Ji Yuanhai patiently explained that he did have things to do and did not have much time to rest at home.

Grandma held Ji Yuanhai and Lu Heling's hands and talked to them. She then hugged Ji Rukun in her arms, got close to him, and gave him some candy and snacks.

Grandpa lit a bag of dry tobacco and puffed for a while: "Yuan Hai, you are the leader now, do a good job... Anyway, do a good job..."

"Yes, grandpa, I know." Ji Yuanhai answered seriously.

Grandpa and grandma, father and mother, brother and sister-in-law and other family members saw them off to the village entrance. After Ji Yuanhai's family and Wang Zhuyun got in the car and left, the family looked at each other and didn't speak for a while.

"My second uncle has become a high-ranking official?" asked Ji Yuanshan's son Ji Kaocheng.

Before he knew it, he was already seven or eight years old and was about to go to school.

Ma Xiuping smiled and touched her son's head: "Yes, your second uncle is amazing. He studied well, was admitted to a good university, and became a high-ranking official. He was admitted to university the year you were born, so your name is Ji Kaocheng."

"In the future, you must be admitted to a good university and be as successful as your second uncle."

Ji Kaocheng nodded and asked again: "My second aunt and my brother know who the woman who followed them is?"

"Is that your second aunt's friend?" Ma Xiuping said uncertainly.

The family didn't dwell on this topic. Maybe he was Lu Heling's friend, or maybe he was Ji Yuanhai's subordinate. It didn't matter to them.

They already knew that Ji Yuanhai was the deputy county magistrate, but today's incident shocked the entire Xiaoshantun, and they were also excited and felt honored and proud.

Another thing is that they didn't stay in the Era Sea for too long, which made them feel a little regretful.

Suppressing the complicated feelings in his heart, Ji Yuanshan said: "Yuan Hai has become a deputy county magistrate at such a young age. Will he have to become a higher official in the future?"

"You are so bold!" Grandpa said unhappily, "It will be very difficult for us, children who grew up in the fields, to become higher officials in the future!"

"It's great to be like this now. Look at Yuan Hai, he's busy all the time and he's tired!"

The whole family began to understand that it was indeed not easy for Ji Yuanhai to be so busy that he didn't even have time to go home for the New Year.

<divclass="contentadv">However, when they thought about the fact that the family’s good life was brought about by Ji Yuanhai, and that Ji Yuanhai himself had become rich and successful, the family all came to a consensus.

Ji Yuanshan’s two sons, Ji Kaocheng and Ji Kaoshang, must study hard and get admitted to university. Only then will they have a bright future!

................................................

"Your family's conditions are really difficult. It's not easy for you to come out of such an environment and get to where you are now, Yuan Hai."

The car was shaking, Ji Rukun fell asleep drowsily in Lu Heling's arms, Wang Zhuyun said to Ji Yuanhai.

Ji Yuanhai smiled when he heard this: "The harsh environment you have seen is much better than before. Do you remember when we first met, you gave me your bicycle to ride?"

Talking about the old things eight years ago, Wang Zhuyun couldn't help laughing: "If I had known you would be like this now, I wouldn't have given you a bicycle to ride, I would have tired you to death!"

Ji Yuanhai couldn't help but think of the past, and his tone was slightly low: "I am really grateful to Old Master Wang and you. You helped me so much in the beginning. But I really can't help you more with your family's affairs. In the end, I still can't let Old Master Wang feel at ease."

Wang Zhuyun's smile slowly faded: "I can't help it. Grandpa and grandma want to see my dad and I being together and living in harmony, but my dad doesn't even consider me his own child anymore."

"He scolds me at every turn and wants to arrange my fate so that I will obey him and devote myself to him and his precious son."

"With such a future, I have no choice but to leave. Fortunately, I have you, so I can feel truly fulfilled in my heart."

Ji Yuanhai didn't say anything, but changed the subject: "I don't have time to go to Jinshui County anymore. I can only write a letter to Shi Kaishan and my godson Shi Xiaoyong to explain the situation."

"Yeah." Wang Zhuyun responded absentmindedly, and suddenly said, "Yuan Hai, let's go see my grandfather together."

It was originally agreed that Wang Zhuyun would not go there after arriving in Qingshan County. The main reason was that he would not stay there for too long. Mr. Wang and his wife might be disappointed and it would be difficult to explain some of their questions. It would be better to let Ji Yuanhai go to visit them and tell them about Wang Zhuyun's situation.

Now when Wang Zhuyun talked about the old days, his emotions were somewhat touched and he had such thoughts.

Ji Yuanhai did not hesitate: "Okay, let's go see your grandfather together."

Wang Zhuyun felt relieved when she saw his clear attitude. She said with a smile, "Don't let me know. My grandparents are old and in poor health!"

Ji Yuanhai said he understood.

When the car arrived at the Qingshan County Staff Quarters, it was almost dusk.

Ji Yuanhai and Wang Zhuyun carried gifts, and Lu Heling led Ji Rukun to Mr. Wang's residence.

I knocked on the door and a middle-aged man's voice came: "Who's here?"

Wang Zhuyun was stunned for a moment, his expression complicated.

Ji Yuanhai never expected to meet Wang Zhuyun's father, Wang Bowen.

Then he thought again and realized that this was very normal - it was the second day of the Chinese New Year, Wang Zhuyun's grandparents were alone at home, and it was normal for Wang Bowen to come here to accompany the elderly.

Wang Zhuyun didn't say anything. She didn't know how to react when she suddenly met her father.

Ji Yuanhai had no choice but to speak: "Hello, I'm here to wish Mr. Wang a happy new year."
