Meng Yan's Transformation

The Zhan family compound became lively again, and Yunqing called Zhan Ziyou's entire family over.

While helping Yunqing cook, Guihua also taught her three daughters to learn from her aunt Mengyan.

Yunqing then asked Zi'an to invite Zhan Zichuan's family to come for dinner, but Zhan Zichuan's wife Wang Guijun refused to come, saying it was inconvenient for them because of their young child.

Yunqing also asked Zi'an to invite Liu Yalan, her future daughter-in-law, to their home.

When the hot pot of rabbit meat was served in two bowls on the table, a rich aroma hit the face, whetting people's appetite; then the crucian carp stewed with cabbage was also served, and the aroma of the fish soup also overflowed. The children were eager to try and wanted to quickly enjoy a wonderful taste bud journey.

"Guihua, you see the children seem hungry, please arrange for them to sit down. And Zi'an, please take good care of Yalan. Everyone please take a seat. Some stir-fried dishes and cold dishes will be ready soon." Yunqing instructed.

Zhan Mengyan served the fried leeks and eggs and the cold cucumber salad that Yunqing had prepared for her. Then the whole family sat down.

Zhan Yu raised the wine glass and said with a smile: "It's been a long time since our family has been so lively. Mengyan is very hardworking and got the second place in the county in the secondary normal school examination. The electricity bills these days are not wasted. I'll have a drink first to congratulate Mengyan." Zhan Yu said, raising his neck and drinking the glass of wine in one gulp.

"Zhan Yu, if you had stopped caring about the electricity bill earlier, Meng Yan would have ranked first in the county. You are so stingy that you are hurting others. Why don't you change your name to Zhan Laosting tomorrow?" Yun Qing teased.

"Old stingy grandpa..." Zhan Jiaojiao shouted.

"Don't call me grandpa like that..." Guihua corrected him hastily. Everyone laughed, and Zhan Jiaojiao looked at everyone with innocent eyes.

Zhan Yu drank too much at dinner that day, and he didn't even notice when his sons, daughters-in-law and granddaughters said goodbye to him.

Yunqing made a hangover soup for Zhan Yu to drink. He kept mumbling, "Mengyan, finally passed the exam, Mengyan passed the exam..."

Yunqing looked at Zhan Yu who was sleeping soundly and said to herself: "Zhan Yu, you hope Meng Yan can get into the Normal School, but you don't understand Meng Yan's feelings."

The next day, after Zhan Mengyan got home from school, she told Yunqing and Zhan Yu, "My head teacher Zhang Deren said that I can apply for recommendation to a secondary normal school, so I can avoid going to the county town for an interview. I can go directly to a certain normal school. After graduation in three years, I will be a primary school teacher."

"You are so lucky to be admitted as a recommended student. You can save a lot of procedures and go directly to a normal school. Mengyan, go and call your brother Zi'an. I will ask him to go to your second aunt's house to ask your eldest cousin Zhang Deren." Zhan Yu said.

Zhan Mengyan came to Zhan Zi'an's new house, and her future sister-in-law Liu Yalan was decorating the new house with Zhan Zi'an.

Zhan Zi'an saw Zhan Mengyan coming and said happily: "Sister Mengyan, when are you going to register for the Normal School? I plan to hold a wedding with your sister Yalan before you go to the Normal School. Before you go to the Normal School, I will ask you to call sister Yalan "Sister Yalan". It's a perfect time for our family to have double happiness."

Liu Yalan bit her lips shyly after being told that by Zhan Zi'an. With a sweet smile on her face, she blushed and pretended to be angry and said, "Zhan Zi'an, who did you discuss this with? Who said they wanted to marry you? Mengyan, I won't listen to your brother. Just call me Sister Yalan all the time."

"Liu Yalan, what do you mean? Do you want to break off the engagement? Mengyan, listen to your brother and call her Sister-in-law Yalan now. She will break off the engagement if she doesn't." Zhan Zi'an said jokingly with a smile.

"Mengyan, don't call me that. If you call me sister-in-law now, I will not treat you well." Liu Yalan said.

"Mengyan, quickly call Yalan sister-in-law. Do you want your brother to be single? You won't even help your brother with this little favor?" Zhan Zi'an said.

"Sister-in-law Yalan..." Zhan Mengyan said with a blushing face.

Zhan Zi'an and Liu Yalan couldn't help laughing when they saw Zhan Mengyan's embarrassment.

"Liu Yalan, please stop making things difficult for my sister. Just agree to be her sister-in-law as soon as possible. Sister Mengyan, do you have anything to ask your brother?" Zhan Zi'an said.

"Dad, he asked you to come home to discuss my admission to a normal school." Zhan Mengyan said awkwardly.

"Mengyan, you are so awesome. It's really remarkable that you are qualified for admission. Zi'an, you should go soon. It's not too late for us to clean up the house tomorrow. Mengyan's matter is more important." Liu Yalan said happily.

"Sister-in-law Yalan, Zi'an and I will leave first." Zhan Mengyan said as she pulled Zhan Zi'an away.

"Let's go, let's go. I'll wait for your good news." Liu Yalan said.

After discussing with Zhan Yu, Zhan Zi'an took some gifts and went to his second aunt's house to explain his purpose. His second aunt called Zhang Deren, who explained the various benefits of recommended students and asked Zhan Zi'an to go back and help Zhan Mengyan write the recommended application.
