Transmigration: Getting Rich with My Space and Supplies-Chapter 276 - 237 There’s a Gold House in the Book_2

Since you were so nervous, why didn’t you do it earlier?

Why wait until now?

"Let’s go get our marriage certificate tomorrow! If you’re heading back to Beijing, you can also transfer your household registration."

"...Okay." Qin Ye couldn’t disagree, as the staff at the commune marriage office weren’t available, so going there would have been pointless anyway.

"Mom, you can also start packing your things; we plan to leave in 10 days."

"Okay." Madam Rong had actually already mostly packed up since after the college entrance exams, when they had started packing slowly.

Rong Yan looked toward Qin Yu and Qin Mei, the twins, "You should do the same, pack everything you need; we might not come back here for a year or two."

It might even be that we never come back, as there wasn’t much left here to hold on to.

Of course, we won’t deal with the house for now; we’ll decide about it later! Selling the house back to the village now... wouldn’t fetch much money, and mainly nobody could afford it.

Qin Yu immediately said, "Sister-in-law, we’ve already finished packing."

Qin Mei also nodded, "Sister-in-law, I’ve also finished packing!"

Actually, their belongings weren’t numerous... much of it was acquired after their sister-in-law arrived.

***

Indeed, as Rong Yan had thought, the next day a large group of people came to their house.

They arrived around noon; Madam Rong was cooking, while Qin Yu was sweeping the yard.

The gates were open.

"Excuse me, does Comrade Rong Yan live here?"

Upon seeing the large group of people at the door, Qin Yu was a bit startled but quickly composed himself, "That’s my sister-in-law; what do you need with my sister-in-law?"

The man who had asked immediately said, "Hello, young comrade. Comrade Rong Yan scored exceptionally well on the college entrance exams and is our provincial top scorer. Leaders from our town and county have specifically come to present her with an award. Young comrade, could you call Comrade Rong Yan out?"

Hearing that they were here to present an award, Qin Yu quickly threw his broom on the ground and said, "Please wait a moment, I’ll go and call my sister-in-law right now."

As he turned to call, he noticed his sister-in-law had already come out of her room.

"Sister-in-law, these people are looking for you."

Not only Rong Yan came out, but the other family members also emerged from their rooms.

The visiting officials were amazed upon seeing Rong Yan, as her beauty was unexpectedly striking.

The speaker was Principal Huang from the county high school, the only person among the visitors who knew Rong Yan.

He smilingly introduced to Rong Yan, "Comrade Rong Yan, these are leaders from the county...these from the city, and also, on behalf of our school, I am here to present you with a scholarship."

Rong Yan was calm; nothing surprised her.

"Hello, leaders. Thank you for coming; it must have been a long way! Please, come inside and have a seat."

The officials quickly shook their heads, "No need to sit; I’m representing the city. This is a 300 yuan award from the city, congratulating Comrade Rong Yan for securing the first place."

He took out a red packet from his pocket and handed it to Rong Yan.

"Thank you!" Rong Yan gratefully accepted.

Seeing this, the county leaders also presented a big red envelope, "Comrade Rong Yan, this is 200 yuan from the county as a reward, congratulating you on being admitted to a prestigious university and achieving such great results, bringing glory to our county."

"Thank you!" Rong Yan accepted it without any delay, gratefully.

Principal Huang saw that they had presented theirs and then brought out their school’s portion.

"Student Rong Yan, this is 150 yuan from our school, congratulating you on being the provincial top scorer."

"Thank you!" Rong Yan accepted it as well.

In total, she suddenly had 650 yuan.

Using the currency of that era, that was indeed a lot, almost like a fortune.

Principal Huang, all smiles, then handed out another portion, "This is for Qin Ye, also congratulating him on securing the second position in the province."

Here was 100 yuan, less than the first place.

Qin Ye hadn’t expected there to be something for him.

"Thank you, but giving it to my wife is enough."

Hearing him say this, Principal Huang then handed the money to Rong Yan.

The city officials hadn’t realized these two were a couple.

So they also brought out the second-place prize for Qin Ye.

This money is a bit less, only 150 yuan.

There are also one hundred yuan from the county.

So, Qin Ye, having come second, received three hundred fifty yuan, nearly half less than Rong Yan.

After giving the reward, they didn’t stay long and quickly left.

As soon as they left, Qin Yu was incredibly excited.

"Big sis, you are too amazing, to still be able to get this much money." Good heavens, it turns out good grades can really earn big money.

Six hundred fifty yuan... for Qin Yu, that was an unimaginable fortune.

Seeing his excited eyes, Rong Yan said, "Then you should study hard too, and maybe even become the top scholar one day."

Upon hearing this, Qin Yu’s smile froze on his face.

"...I can’t." Realizing his remark was a bit disheartening, he quickly added, "My elder brother is so impressive and he only got second place, so I probably can’t manage it either."

Forget university in the future, maybe I should just join the army!

Qin Ye:...

"Ah, today is truly a great day, so, this noon I will cook a few more dishes," Madam Rong said, her face all aglow with happiness.

No help for it, the award was just too substantial.

Added together, it was more than what a senior master at the factory earns in two years.

Indeed, knowledge changes destiny, and isn’t there gold in books? Look, didn’t the money just come this way?

"We should indeed prepare a few more dishes. Maybe we should get some wine too?" Rong Wenming was quite craving alcohol, it had been a long while since he drank.

Madam Rong was about to scold him when Rong Yan spoke up, "Dad, I have a bottle of medicinal wine, just got it not long ago. So, you can have a small glass at noon."

Rong Wenming was truly surprised upon hearing this.

"Really? I can have a small glass?"

He had just casually mentioned it and hadn’t expected they would really agree.

Rong Yan nodded, "Of course it’s true. Did you think I’d joke with you?"

"That’s great, I always say my daughter treats me the best," Rong Wenming was overjoyed.

Rong Yan immediately replied, "You’re my dad, who else should I treat well if not you?"

Madam Rong got goosebumps from this father-daughter exchange.

"Enough... I’m about to puke."

Rong Wenming retorted right away, "You’re definitely just jealous. Jealous of how well my daughter treats me."

Madam Rong:...

She wasn’t jealous at all.

She simply rolled her eyes.

And went to the kitchen to cook.

"I’ll go help mom," said Qin Ye as he went to assist in the kitchen, not wanting her mother-in-law to cook alone... it was quite tough.

Half an hour later, a big table of dishes was laid out on the dining table.

Rong Yan brought out that half bottle of medicinal wine. She also brought out two cups.

"Mom, you have one too. This medicinal wine is good for your health after you drink it."

Madam Rong initially didn’t want to drink, but the wine her daughter poured was very fragrant, making it hard to refuse.

"You said this is medicinal wine? Why isn’t there a medicinal smell?"

Normally, medicinal wines have a very strong medicinal scent.

Rong Yan said, "I added some precious herbs, but I processed them in a unique way, so the smell is not strong. However, you will taste a hint of it. Just try and you’ll know."

Rong Wenming, eager to try, took a swig, and his eyes immediately lit up.

"This medicinal wine really tastes good."

It was not inferior to other alcohol he had tried.

Seeing this, Madam Rong also took a sip and offered her compliments, "It really is tasty, and indeed there’s a hint of medicinal taste, but I can’t tell what it is."

Rong Yan arched an eyebrow, "I keep the recipe secret, so I won’t tell you."

Madam Rong shot her a look, "I don’t want to know, let’s start eating, or it’ll get cold and won’t taste as good."

At this meal, Qin Yu was the happiest eater; there was meat, fish, and other dishes... life felt almost comparable to the gods.
