She Only Cares About Cultivation-Chapter 847 - 790: Famine Era 31 (First Update)
So, a smart woman would improve herself several levels as her husband continuously advances, even if she can’t keep up with his pace, at least she can present herself well. Is there any hope for someone like the Cao Family’s Sister-in-law?
Ye Huan is reluctant to give up the opportunity at a big hospital, for this very reason. Small places are comfortable, but after a long time of comfort, not only do they bring no help, but they also cause you to lose many competitive opportunities.
Growing up in an overly comfortable environment, a person can easily become useless.
She even thought about it. Given Tong Zhan’s nature of work, he won’t be dependable in the future. And she not only needs to work but also must raise the child by her side so the child can receive better education in the future. Their military unit is far from Beijing, in a remote corner, and it’s impossible to have a good school there within ten years.
In short, the more effort you put in, the more abundant the fruits your child will enjoy.
That night, Tong Zhan pried open a small box from the wall crack in front of her, and what was inside opened her eyes wide.
There were gold bars, silver coins, gold, silver, jade, and jewelry, all piled together, filling an entire box.
She stared at him with wide eyes: "Didn’t you donate all of it?"
"Do you think I’m stupid? I donated ninety percent, keeping ten percent for myself to marry a wife, isn’t that normal? You should keep all of these well. I went through a lot of trouble to gather them into one box; they’re all yours now. Spend them as you wish, I won’t interfere. The condition is that you take good care of them; they’re all carefully selected, many are antiques!"
You treat antiques like this? Just piling them carelessly together?
Seeing his indifferent attitude, Ye Huan sighed silently and then tried to carefully pick up and play with the things, only to be pushed down directly by him.
"There’s nothing to look at with these shiny trinkets. I’ll earn you more money to spend in the future. Come now, let’s hurry, hurry!"
Damn you, Grandma, I’m still being bullied!
But after that, she didn’t have time to think about these things because all her low curses turned into muffled groans...
Ye Huan stayed in the military for three days and packed up the house after Tong Zhan finished his handover on December 22, before boarding the train home.
Of course, before leaving, she didn’t forget the box of treasures, storing them all in her space, so no one could steal them, nor would they be searched out by anyone with bad intentions in the future.
To avoid trouble, the two bought upper berths. Due to the shadow of the last landslide, she always suffered from insomnia on the train.
The surrounding intermittent snores prevented her from sleeping too deeply.
Although they brought her homemade mixed grain pancakes and tea eggs, they still bought hot soup and noodles on the train because winter was really too cold, without heating or anything, and it was the oldest kind of steam train, slow and uncomfortable environment.
Of course, if the ride went smoothly, she would overlook these bad factors, but the key was she seemed to carry an unlucky constitution.
Tong Zhan reacted quickly, instructing her not to move and lie still on the upper berth to avoid being squeezed or hit by stray bullets. Then he disappeared into the crowd.
Ye Huan knew he went to help, after all, he used to do such work, as long as there was no chaotic shouting, it should be safe.
But when you’re unlucky, even drinking water gets stuck in your teeth. That woman obviously rushed over, but suddenly turned back. She didn’t know how she spotted her, but she did point a gun at her, demanding she come down and be her hostage.
Given that she had a gun and Ye Huan was dressed as an ordinary civilian, she very obediently climbed down.
As soon as she got down, the woman choked her neck, controlling her with her arm.
Pushing a gun against her temple, threatening the plainclothes gradually approaching around her.
"Open the door, let me go, or bear the consequences!"
As she spoke, she pressed the gun harder on Ye Huan’s forehead as if this would make the others take her seriously.
Honestly, Ye Huan hated this action, especially when this action appeared; countless scenarios of counterattacking her flashed in her mind.
Yet she pretended to be scared, sobbing irritatingly, which made the woman angrily roar at her: "Shut up, or I’ll shoot you!"
When Tong Zhan came over, panting, he saw his little wife being held hostage. In an instant, anger surged uncontrollably, wanting to rush toward her but was held tightly by the plainclothes, pushed into the already emptied sleeper berth corridor.
This woman seemed to have accomplices. Her alertness towards Ye Huan was visibly low during negotiations with the plainclothes. In the train’s swaying, Ye Huan sensed something amiss with her, seizing the moment everyone’s attention was on the woman, discreetly reaching towards their seam...
There were six plainclothes in this carriage; as long as the woman doesn’t drag Ye Huan out of the window, the success rate remains high.
But evidently, the female traitor underestimated the insight of the plainclothes and overestimated her value in their eyes.
Faced with national secrets, an ordinary civilian like her should actually be ready for sacrifice at any time.
So, her demands went unmet by the plainclothes, nor did they bring her accomplice over.
Seeing this, the woman was ready to risk everything, lifting her clothes, and she just glanced downward.
She thought it felt simple, showing disdain inadvertently.
But in contrast, Tong Zhan instantly turned pale, especially as the woman clung tightly to her, pulling that string, Tong Zhan’s voice pierced strongly—
"No... no, let her go, let her go,"
