She Only Cares About Cultivation-Chapter 906 - 821: Famine Era 62

Ye Huan transformed her longing for him into nurturing her children and raising her own standards. Over more than a decade, she had become a renowned doctor at the top of J Hospital in Jibei Province. Even her children had excelled; as soon as the college entrance examination was restored, Liu Hongqing achieved the top scorer title in Jibei Province with outstanding results, opened the doors to Tsinghua University, and, inspired by his mother, chose to study medicine. By September 1980, he was already a junior student.

During the college entrance examination, three children from the family participated. At that time, only 21-year-old Liu Hongqing was admitted to the university of his dreams.

Tong Chaoyang and Ye Danfeng were both eighteen years old. Though they passed the undergraduate cutoff, they did not get into prestigious schools. After discussing it, they decided to repeat a year.

Ye Huan supported them, and the two children proved themselves. Tong Chaoyang was admitted to the Chemistry Department of Fudan University, and Ye Danfeng entered the Chinese Department of Beijing University.

In April 1980, Tong Zhan returned safely, and in June, Liu Zhengrong sat for the college entrance exam and was successfully admitted to the National Defense Science and Technology University, which was his little uncle’s alma mater. Without Tong Zhan’s return, he might not have qualified to apply, but now everything had become clear. His outstanding performance made his admission a certainty.

In a family full of academic achievers, the youngest, Ye DanNi, felt immense pressure. She was already in her third year of high school and would take the 1981 college entrance examination, but the high mountains ahead made her feel immense pressure.

Ye DanNi started elementary school at the age of six, even skipping a grade, making her a high school third-year student at seventeen. With so many brothers and sisters as role models, her grades were not bad, but she still felt overwhelmed. Fortunately, Ye Huan and Tong Zhan provided her with encouragement.

"It’s just the first year; if you don’t do well, it’s okay. At worst, you can repeat a year. Isn’t your cousin Ji Yeluo a good example? It took him three attempts to get into the Qing University he wanted. You can do it too, as long as you have a goal. Your parents will support you and provide for you."

Tong Zhan was already sixty years old. After twelve years of hard work, he inevitably suffered from illness and pain, so upon his return, he was assigned to a desk job at Department S. He would retire in no more than five years. Initially, he considered applying for medical retirement, as he had harbored resentment over the years. He had lost hope in the future and had no desire to shine anymore, but Ye Huan encouraged him.

"You’re still young. Since there’s a plan from above, let’s work for a few more years. I’m here with you, so what are you afraid of!"

They eventually settled in Jibei Province instead of choosing to return to Beijing.

"I checked on the house in Beijing. She has passed away, and your brother got into trouble during * times and ended up in prison, with his later years ruined. The house is left vacant, so I rented it out. It could be for the kids in the future!"

"Oh, by the way, I used the money I’ve saved over the years to buy a courtyard. Once we both retire, we can go back. It has a big yard, and with so many kids, there’s plenty of room."

Tong Zhan’s eyes reddened: "You’ve worked hard, raising the children so well all these years. I, I feel guilty!"

"Why are you bringing that up again? When it comes to hard work, none of us have worked harder than you. My dear, as long as you’re safely back, our whole family is very happy, aren’t we?"

Ye Huan had endured hardships over the years, but because she had expectations and a fierce determination, she managed to turn her grief into motivation and raised four academic achievers under her strict guidance. Although Ye DanNi hadn’t yet taken the college entrance exam, based on her usual academic performance, she was no worse than her siblings, so her future results wouldn’t fall short either.

If all five children were admitted to prestigious universities, there would be less for the two of them to worry about in the future. After retirement, wouldn’t the couple be free to go wherever they wished?

More than a decade of separation was not frightening, because now they were reunited. As long as their health was fine, being surrounded by children and grandchildren while enjoying their old age was the rightful path.

In the Ye Family, the greatest achievement belonged to Ye Huan’s Fourth Brother, who was now an S-Level official in a certain district in Chongqing. Third Brother seemed destined to stay in his finance department head position for life. 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

Due to disabilities, Fifth Brother and Sixth Brother had their development restricted, but there was a certain goodness in being ordinary too, as they took good care of the elderly and children at home.

Later, Seventh Brother also reached the position of T-level in Hunan, and although Eighth Brother lagged slightly, he was still a Y-level official.

Ye Bing and Ye Xue followed Ye Yu into normal colleges, where they became teachers.

Ye Jialei graduated from Harbin Institute of Technology, entered the military, and became a technical talent. His future achievements wouldn’t fall short either.
