A stunning mermaid dressed in the 1980s, the whole family lined up to pamper her endlessly.

Chapter 47 Using Connections to Get Help

The wooden beads made by Yun Chenbei were very round and the size was just right, but there were only four of them.

He treasured and kept the remaining sandalwood.

Yun Chenbei was a meticulous worker. He took the stone, sandalwood beads, and a red string and began to work.

When he was drilling holes in the beads and pebbles, he was almost completely absorbed in the moment, ignoring everything around him.

Yun Jiao sat to the side, propping her chin up with her two little hands and watching for a while, but soon couldn't stand it anymore and left the room to go out and play.

Fourth brother is really amazing; he can sit still for so long.

She can't.

"Jiaojiao has something to discuss with you."

Grandpa Yun also returned, and he waved to Yun Jiao.

Yun Jiao walked over.

"May we take this sea cucumber to give to your Uncle Wang?"

Yun Jiao nodded: "Okay."

Since she found it for free, she didn't expect her family to keep it for themselves. Rather than selling it for money, it would be better if Uncle Wang could help her two brothers find out the results.

Yunlinhai and Yunlinhe returned around lunchtime.

This time they went straight to the abalone on the island, without wasting any time, and didn't explore other places either.

"How about it?"

"We didn't find any large abalone, but we did find some medium-sized ones, about six or seven pounds."

Those are all abalone with eleven or twelve heads.

It looks decent in size; it should be suitable as a gift.

Grandpa Yun took out the sea cucumber.

"Take this one too."

Yunlinhai and Yunlinhe stared wide-eyed.

"Where did this come from?"

Yun Jiao proudly tilted her head back: "It's a gift from the orca."

"Is it the one we rescued before?"

Yun Jiao nodded: "That's right."

Yun Linhai and Yun Linhe were truly impressed. Their daughter, Jiaojiao, was such a lucky star; she never went anywhere empty-handed.

Grandpa Yun: "Eat quickly, and after we finish eating, we'll go visit the leaders."

"Whether it succeeds or not, as long as you've tried, that's enough. If it doesn't work out, you two brothers can try again next year."

Yun Chendong and Yun Chenxi nodded; they also knew about their family's situation.

If they fail the physical examination themselves, they'll give up and try again next year; if they still fail, so be it.

If they really were replaced by someone else, they would do everything they could to fight for themselves.

If you don't have any connections or resources to inquire, that's one thing, but now that you clearly have those connections, it's truly foolish not to try and get them just because you're afraid of bothering others.

What does face matter compared to one's future?

When it was time to eat, Yun Chenbei came out of the house, holding a particularly beautiful bracelet in his hand.

"Here you go, it's done."

He wove the red rope into a twisted shape, with brightly colored and beautiful little fish hanging from it. The sandalwood beads were also pretty and had a faint fragrance.

"Thank you, Fourth Brother."

She loves it.

"This can be contracted."

Yun Chenbei taught her how to wear it.

The band size is a bit larger than Yun Jiao's wrist; Yun Jiao specifically asked her brother to make it larger, as she didn't wear it herself.

Wang Mei: "This bracelet is really beautiful. Xiao Bei, make one for your mother and your aunt as well."

Yun Chenbei: "There are no stones of this shape left, and the wooden beads are also gone."

“Any shape of stone will do. Don’t you have a lot? Let your mother choose. Wooden beads are easy to make. Just go to the mountains, find a piece of wood, and make a couple of beads.”

What woman doesn't love beauty? Her son's skills are truly excellent; most importantly, it looks good and is free.

"it is good."

Yun Chenbei nodded and did not refuse.

Shen Yunlian was a little embarrassed: "I think I'll pass, it'll take up Xiao Bei's time."

Yun Chenbei: "It won't be long, but we won't have ropes of that color anymore."

Wang Mei: "Just give us any color, fishing line is fine too." After finishing their meal, they found a nice-looking bag and packed the abalone and sea cucumber into it.

Grandpa Yun: "It's just me and Lin Hai taking those two brothers and Jiaojiao with us."

Grandpa Yun and Yun Linhai took out their best clothes and put them on.

Yun Jiao was also dressed up beautifully.

She wore a red floral dress, white sneakers, and her hair was styled in two pretty braids.

They packed their things and set off.

They were riding in the same tractor from the village.

The uncle driving the tractor, seeing how well-dressed this family was, asked, "Where are you all going?"

Grandpa Yun handed Yun Jiao to Yun Linhai, who had already gotten into the car.

"We're going to visit relatives, so we'll have to trouble you, Wang Laosan, to go to the county town."

"no problem."

The tractor rumbled along, and the bumpy road made Yun Jiao's buttocks ache a little.

The scenery receded along the way, and with a mix of trepidation and excitement, they finally arrived in the county town.

They knew the address since they had been here before.

On their way to the Wang family's villa, they tidied their clothes and hair several times.

Yun Jiao had a piece of candy in her mouth and glanced at them several times.

“Father, my brother’s clothes are neat and clean, and his hair is not messy.”

The group chuckled awkwardly; it was just nervousness.

Grandpa Yun: "Useless!"

If only his hands weren't shaking so much.

Sigh... When you ask someone for help, you always feel uneasy.

Yun Chendong saw all of this.

At that moment, he secretly vowed that if he could really join the army, he would perform well and never let his family ask others for favors again.

When they arrived at the Wang family's house and knocked on the door, a boy of about twelve or thirteen years old opened it.

"Who are you looking for?"

The young man looked at the person standing at the door, his gaze lingering on Yun Jiao, whose skin was as white as snow and whose features were as delicate as jade.

"Um, we're looking for Leader Wang."

The boy said, "Oh, you're looking for my dad? He's not here right now, come back next time..."

"Who's coming?"

An old man came out of the house.

The boy immediately said, "Grandma, don't wander off, I..."

"Nah!"

The old man's eyes lit up the moment he saw Yun Jiao, and he hugged her tightly.

"My dear girl, where have you been? I've been looking for you for so long."

Yun Jiao blinked: "Grandma."

"Don't call her Grandma, call her Mother."

The boy came over and pulled at his grandmother: "Grandma, what are you doing? Who is this person?"

The old man glanced at the boy: "It's A-Yi. Come here, your aunt is back. Come and greet her."

Wang Yi immediately exploded: "Are you kidding me? Where did I get a little aunt, especially... such a young little aunt!"

Yun Jiao looked at him with her big eyes and asked in a soft voice, "Can we wait for Uncle Wang to come back?"

Wang Yi felt a little embarrassed by the stares.

"Then...then you can come in first."

"My little girl has come to see her mother."

"My daughter is still as beautiful as ever."

Sitting on the sofa, the old man's gentle gaze never left him.

Yun Jiao took out the bracelet that her fourth brother had made for her.

"Grandma puts this bracelet on you, hoping it will bring you good luck."

Wang Yi poured a glass of water for each of them, and seeing his grandmother find him a little aunt just like that made him feel like he had a toothache.

His grandmother's inability to recognize people is getting worse and worse.
