Chapter 269: Economics?

~7 min read 1,315 words

"You were injured because you were saving someone; Grandmother is proud." Grandmother patted An Yinan's hand, then said with gratification.

Although she was proud, how could she not be anxious when her own child was injured and unconscious?

"Hurry inside, don't stand outside talking," Big Aunt greeted.

"Look at me, I'm old and always forgetful," Grandmother laughed heartily, pulling An Yinan as they walked into the house.

The whole family sat in the living room, and the Second Aunt looked at An Yinan, "Nan Nan, can you let me see your admission letter?"

This child had high aspirations; her goal had been set many years ago, and she had been working hard for this goal.

And now, it had finally blossomed and borne fruit.

"Okay, I'll go get it." An Yinan's admission letter was in her space, but to avoid suspicion, she grabbed a leather suitcase, turned her back to everyone to rummage for a moment, and then took out the admission letter.

"I want to see it too," Beibei said happily.

"Alright, alright, everyone can see it," An Yinan said with a smile, first handing the admission letter to the Second Aunt.

The Second Aunt had prepared a lot of materials and various exercises for her over the past two years; apart from the materials she had bought in Quanshui Village before, all other materials had been sent by the Second Aunt over the years.

"This... first place, it really is you." Fang Hong stroked the admission letter, then reluctantly handed it to the old lady.

"I even thought it was just someone with the same name; I didn't expect it to be our family's Nan Nan," the old lady said in surprise as well.

Beijing was different from the Northeast Military Region. The title of top liberal arts student had already been released, but in this era, telephones were not widespread, and since An Yinan was in the Northeast Military Region where outsiders could not enter, this allowed her to avoid the interview process.

"I knew it, it must be Sister," Beibei said happily.

You must know, when the name of the top liberal arts student was announced, Beibei had firmly believed it must be his sister.

In his heart, his sister was capable of anything.

The family took turns looking at it; everyone had had their guesses, and now they were confirmed.

"Economics?" Yun Fei was actually quite surprised when he saw the major.

If An Yinan had chosen the Foreign Languages Department or the Traditional Chinese Medicine Department, Yun Fei would not have been surprised, as she had dabbled in these, and had even gone further than most people.

But it was actually Economics?

An Yinan shrugged her shoulders, "Yes, Economics."

"Our country is developing at high speed, and technology and the economy will be the top priorities, but I am really not cut out for scientific research, so I settled for the next best thing and chose Economics."

"Economics, what are the planned development directions for the future?" Fang Hong discussed.

Everyone in the Yun Family respected the child's choices.

Although An Yinan's choice exceeded everyone's expectations, not a single person raised an objection.

Although everyone did not know what Economics was, they could ask actively and did not dismiss it.

This reaction made An Yinan very surprised.

Never mind this era; even in modern times, most majors are decided by parents, and parents only agree to majors they think have a future.

Whenever parents think there is no future, they will add many obstacles.

An Yinan was stunned for a moment, then began to smile gently.

"Economics actually includes Macroeconomics, Statistics, Microeconomics, Quantitative Economics, Finance, International Economics, and so on."

"Development Economics, Industrial Economics, Labor Economics, Public Economics, Regional Economics, Empirical Economics, etc.; the knowledge involved is very extensive."

"The country is developing; universities have now opened up, and individual economies will open up in the future. The country needs the people to be wealthy, and only when the people are wealthy will the country be wealthy; a wealthy country will make it easier to promote technology."

"The people are the foundation of the country, and the economy is the pulse of the people."

"In any era, the economy is indispensable, and my goal is very simple: to be the richest person for fun?" An Yinan spread her hands and said with a smile.

At this moment, there was light in her eyes.

No one doubted her words, even though her words were such nonsense to everyone.

But everyone seemed unable to find a tone to refute her, and everyone even believed that since she had said it, she would definitely be able to do it.

This was the Yun family's trust in her, and it was also her success as a person.

"So that's how it is!" Fang Hong nodded in understanding, then stepped forward and hugged An Yinan, "Nan Nan, you will do it!"

Everyone laughed one after another.

Liu Xicai stood up, "Alright, Nan Nan has been on the train for several days, hurry and eat, so you can rest a while."

"Big Aunt, I'll carry the dishes." Beibei followed Liu Xicai into the kitchen.

"I'm coming too," Yun Yan followed as well.

"I'll come too," An Yinan said, but just as she stood up, she was pressed back onto the stool by Fang Hong.

"You, you should just rest. You've been on the train for several days, aren't you tired?" Fang Hong looked at An Yinan, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

An Yinan touched her nose, "Actually, it's alright."

She was a bit tired, but seeing her relatives made her feel very excited.

Moreover, she had sat in a soft sleeper on the train, and this time she didn't have to rush to translate, so she actually had plenty of time to rest.

"You don't need to; you rest well. After eating, don't worry about anything, just go back to your room to catch up on sleep, and go see Grandpa Chen in the evening," Liu Xicai instructed carefully.

An Yinan had originally intended to do this, so she nodded obediently and said, "Okay, I'll listen to my Big Aunt."

"Look, Nan Nan is still the most obedient," Liu Xicai couldn't help but say.

If you ask who was happiest about An Yinan returning to Beijing, it had to be Liu Xicai.

Her own soft and cute little girl was finally no longer suffering in the great North; how could she not be happy?

The family sat together, and everyone spoke freely; except for some political and military secrets that could not be mentioned here, there were no taboos on other topics.

"Which day is registration? I'll accompany you," Liu Xicai asked.

On one side of An Yinan was Grandmother, and on the other was Big Aunt; mainly because Beibei hadn't beaten Big Aunt to the spot, he eventually settled for the next best thing and sat opposite his sister.

"There is still time; I can spend the New Year at home." An Yinan had returned early mainly to look at the buying and selling of houses.

Although she already had two Siheyuan in her hands, and the house with Chen Xun was their shared courtyard.

But she had long since planned to provide for the elderly couple's retirement; the old folks were used to living in a courtyard house and would likely not adapt to life in a tenement building, so she needed to find a courtyard house in advance.

Furthermore, she also had to make preparations for Beibei; if Beibei liked living in a building in the future, the Siheyuan would not depreciate and could be traded for a different location, and if he preferred living in a courtyard house, then it would be even more suitable.

She was the older sister and needed to prepare things for Beibei in advance.
