Due to an unexpected encounter with Jian Zhenwu, Lin Tian had eaten her dinner gloomily without the slightest bit of appetite.

Han Yuan, however, was not affected. He ate a lot of seafood and even ate a big plate of fried kuai sticks with bamboo shoot shredded meat.

Lin Tian was stunned.

Since Han Yuan was able to eat, Lin Tian had experienced it the first time she ate with him. Today, she was able to broaden her horizons once more.

However, he was not fat at all for being so good at eating. He was so strong, so grand, and so handsome.

"Are you scared by my eating habits?" Han Yuan smiled when the two of them walked out.

Lin Tian smiled without a word.

"Hehe, my mom said I was born from a hungry ghost, I've been able to eat since I was young, but I can never get enough to eat." Hehe, my mom said I was born from a hungry ghost, I've been able to eat since I was young, and I can never get enough to get enough. At that time, the rations were still limited, and 45 catties of food a month was not enough for me to eat. My old class monitor gave me a resounding name: Han Sanhe! "The entire company is famous —"

Lin Tian could not help but laugh, "No wonder you're so tall —"

"Yes, I am a sixteen year old soldier. My stature is after entering the army. In the two years I spent as a recruit, I grew twenty centimeters, and every year I grew ten centimeters. The class monitor said that even in my sleep, I could hear the sound of my bones being pulled out of joint, and the length of my bones! " Han Yuan gestured as he spoke.

Hearing this, Lin Tian laughed again, "Your growth rate is indeed scary!"

"When I went in, I was only 1.6 meters. Two years later, I jumped to 1.8 meters. The class monitor looked down on me and then looked up at me. Then I became the class monitor —" Han Yuan smiled. "I'm the highest in the class —"

Thinking about his military life, Han Yuan was very happy. There were endless words to say. Those were the most exciting years of his life.

"Big Brother Han, is life in the military more colorful than it is now?" Lin Tian asked.

"How so? Two completely different lives, I don't think. " Han Yuan said somewhat dejectedly, "If there's a choice, I will stay in the army my whole life. I feel that I'm still suitable to be in the army."

For the first time, Lin Tian felt Han Yuan's loss.

Actually, transforming was painful for everyone. What's more, Han Yuan had left his job and lived in an environment for more than 20 years.

"But the iron army is like a river, this is a reality most soldiers have to face. No matter how reluctant they are, they have to face it, no matter how difficult it is to accept it —" Han Yuan leaned against the railing of the river and said, "I'm trying very hard to adapt to my current life."

"Everything will be fine!" Lin Tian said like she was comforting Han Yuan or comforting herself.

As the two leisurely strolled along the river bank and chatted, Han Yuan felt an unprecedented sense of relaxation.

He had been feeling depressed recently, and today was the most relaxing and happiest day of his life.

At around nine o'clock, Han Yuan sent Lin Tian back to his dorm and drove him straight to his mother's house.

Since Gu Yan and his son were not at home, it just so happened that he could come over and accompany his mother.

His mother gave him a key, and it was as easy as going home.

After entering, Han Yuan saw that the light was still on in his mother's room. He gently opened the door and peeped out. His mother was sitting in front of the desk with her reading glasses, carefully looking at something.

"Mom, I'm back!" Han Yuan said.

"Oh —" Mom came back to her senses, took off her reading glasses and said to the door, "Oh, come in, Mom has something to say to you —"

The air conditioner was on in the room, so Han Yuan casually closed the door after entering.

He sat down in the chair next to his mother, not knowing what she was going to say to him.

"Far away, I want to buy two tombs for your father and myself — —" Mom said. "I've asked around and found them on the other side of the river, not far from the bridge. The scenery is good, the feng shui is not bad — —"

When Han Yuan heard his mother's words, an unspeakable pain arose in his heart.

This was the law of nature, the final destination for everyone.

Logically, this was something that he should do as his eldest son, but his mother had already thought about it beforehand.

"Mom, let me do this! Don't worry about it, I'll go and have a look when I have time. If you have time, I'll bring you there to see "said Han Yuan," Dad's recovery is quite good, don't worry. "

"Far away, you mean Mom knows what you mean. I didn't say that to your brother because I didn't want him to worry about me. But since you're the boss, I still have to let you know. It's a weekend tomorrow. We'll go to the cemetery and have a look. "I've already prepared the money —"

Mom handed a passbook to Han Yuan. "This is the money for the cemetery. If one day your dad and I leave, you guys don't have to prepare for the money. Mom has already prepared everything here."

Looking at the numbers on the passbook, Han Yuan's eyes watered: five hundred thousand!

Mom had prepared so much money for herself and Dad!

"Mom, it's our responsibility to be filial to you and dad. You should keep the money for yourself —" Han Yuan put the passbook back into his mom's hands.

"Silly son, why would mom keep this money? I don't have much to spend now. Your dad and I have a pension of over ten thousand a month, and that home management company of mine is doing pretty well. Mom laughed. "Last year, when you went back to Haizhou to buy a car, you used up most of your money, didn't you? You spend a lot of money, the children want to go to school, you want to get paid, how much salary can you leave? "Take this money. If you are in urgent need of it, you can come and get it from your mother."

Hearing his mother's words, Han Yuan felt embarrassed.

Mom was right. He didn't have much money left in his pocket.

If he didn't have the veterans' allowance, he could have even gone back to Haizhou to buy a house. When he bought the house last year, his mother gave him money, but he didn't take it.

Since he had joined the army as a teenager, he had never asked for money from his family, but he had rarely sent money to them. In his early years as a soldier, the allowance was only enough for him to spend for himself. Then he became an officer, paid well and spent a lot of money, got married and had children, supported his family, and had little left over for the year.

Now that he was middle-aged and married, how could he still want his mother's money? He wouldn't take it even if she beat him to death. Even if his mother had money, it was still her money. It had nothing to do with him.

"Mom, you have three children. We will do these things for you and Dad, don't worry —" Han Yuan said, "I really can't take this money. Otherwise, how can I explain it to my brothers and sisters?"

"Far away — —" Mum looked at him with a pained look. "Mommy is worried about you the most right now. Your brother has always been by our side, buying a house and getting married and having children is something your father and I did. His life is smooth, not as complicated as yours. Your sister is far away from home, so I don't have to worry about her because she has the best financial situation. When you bought the house last year, I was going to give you some money, but you didn't want it. However, you have to take the money. This is what I arranged for you to respect my mother's opinion. "In addition —"

Mom took out a passbook and handed it to Han Yuan. "I still have a set amount of money, so I want to keep it alive. It's a pity to stay in the bank like this. The house on Egret Island is good. You can go there when you have time, pick out a good building in a good location, buy two sets, both under your name — both the passbook codes are for your date of birth. "

Han Yuan opened the passbook and carefully counted the zeros. It was exactly one million yuan!

He looked at his mother in astonishment. He didn't expect her to have so much money in her possession! This was too shocking!

The old lady had made so much money all these years? How could that domestic company be so effective?

"Don't worry, mother's money is all clean. Your father retired early on, and he's never been greedy for it--" Mom smiled, "This 500,000 is the lifetime salary and savings of me and your father. This million is the income from the family affairs company I started in these five years. I want to buy two sets of houses, and then you two brothers will have one each. Egret Island will have a better development than Haizhou, where the value of the houses will rise quickly. If the next generation is willing to develop on Egret Island, then they won't have to worry about the houses anymore. "If you don't want to go, I can sell it and use it as a living resource."

Han Yuan could not help but admire his mother's economic brain.

When he was young, he lived off his salary. When he was old, he could still earn so much money.

"Mom, take out all this money, what if you want to use it?" Han Yuan said, "You should keep it for yourself —"

"I have a pension every month, and the company has more than enough revenue —" Mom laughed. "Do as I say!"

Han Yuan could not refuse anymore. It was indeed a waste to leave the money in the bank!

The house on Egret Island hasn't risen yet, but it looks like it will soon.

"Mom, I'll use your name to buy the house. With my name, I'm afraid my younger brother and sister might have objections in the future —" Han Yuan said.

"Don't worry, they won't have any objections. Mom believes in you. Han just mentioned a side office, he can't have too many properties under his name. His mother is old, so it's not appropriate to use my name. "Just use yours. You have no official position right now, so you don't need to be afraid of owning a few more suites." Mom laughed.

Han Yuan could only nod his head. His mother's thoughts were reasonable.

"Sure, I'll do as you say!" Han Yuan said.

"I'm sleepy, you go to bed early as well!" Mother said tiredly.

After showering, Han Yuan lay on the bed, tossing and turning, but couldn't fall asleep.

Mom was a very well-planned person and had always been the backbone of the family. Now that he was old, he had arranged everything perfectly, including his own personal affairs.

Han Yuan felt that he had let down his mother.

As the eldest brother, he hadn't contributed much to this family, and as the eldest brother, he also hadn't been able to take care of his younger brother and sister. He was truly ashamed.

Now that his family was in such a mess again, and his relationship with Gu Yan was so tense, he didn't know when he would be able to recover.

When he thought about how his mother could find a job even after retiring, and how she even did such a good job, he even had an impulse to resign and start a business! He has always been a layman in the poster group. He can't do business and he doesn't have the experience of other people. It's impossible to do anything on the road.

But how could starting a business be so easy? He had been in the army for half his life, so what could he do when he started his own business?

Han Yuan felt very confused...
