I, Yan Jiefang, will live to 2025 in this courtyard house.

When they got home, before the car had even come to a complete stop, Liu Ruyan, her children, her mother-in-law, Liu Jingjing, and Zhao Tingting all gathered around.

"Honey, you're back!"

"Dad, where's the gold medal? Let me see it!"

"Ah, it's good that you're back, it's good that you're back."

...

Yan Jiefang opened the car door and all he could hear were the voices of his family.

"Yes, I'm back."

Xueqian, go to the passenger seat and take my bag down, then share the snacks inside with everyone.

The gold medals are still in the bag; take them to the reception room to see them.

"receive!"

The three children immediately rushed forward, opened the passenger door, and immediately spotted their father Yan Jiefang's familiar military green canvas backpack.

It was crammed full of things.

The bag contained various snacks and other food items.

They took out the snacks and shared them with Liu Jingjing and Zhao Tingting. Customers who came to buy fruit and neighbors who heard the commotion came over to watch.

Everyone was very happy to receive the snacks brought back from abroad; these were genuine imported goods!

These days, many people like these kinds of things, whether it's appliances, cars, shoes, hats, etc.

If it's imported, then it's undoubtedly a high-quality product!

Even if it's terrible, they can always find something good about it from different angles.

Even if problems arise, they will only look for the cause within themselves.

Anyway, there's absolutely no problem with Dai Di.

After distributing the snacks, the three sons picked up their backpacks containing the gold medals and tried to run into the yard.

"Xueqian, don't run away! Let us see what the gold medal looks like and broaden our horizons!"

"Yeah, yeah, we've never even seen what a gold medal looks like before!"

The onlookers were all encouraged.

Yan Xueqian looked at his father.

Yan Jiefang nodded slightly.

"Okay, since my dad agrees, I'll open it here."

As Yan Xueqian spoke, he took one out from a large stack at the bottom of his backpack.

The outside of this thing is a thick beige cardboard flip box. Only when you open the box can you see the medal storage box inside.

This is a deep purple velvet flip-top box with rounded corners and a thin gold trim around the edge.

Lifting the lid, the inside is lined with white satin, printed with the gold Seoul Olympics emblem and five-ring symbol, with three lines of English text printed below.

The bottom of the box has a circular groove carved out of velvet, which holds the gold medal perfectly, while the empty space next to it is used to place the colorful ribbon.

The dazzling golden light reflected off the surface of the gold medal and shone into the eyes of the onlookers.

Yan Xueqian took out the gold medal from inside and hung it around the neck of his second brother.

The gleaming gold medal swayed on his chest.

Then he took out another piece and hung it around his third brother's neck.

That's not all; he also hung a fresh gold medal around the neck of his grandmother, mother, and himself.

The five gold medals, exposed to the air, were so dazzling they nearly blinded the titanium alloy eyes of the onlookers.

The old lady stroked the gold medal on her chest, beaming with joy.

Liu Ruyan also felt an overwhelming sense of glory filling her heart.

Seeing this scene, the onlookers were filled with envy.

You should know that there were still 10 yuan left in that ordinary, simple canvas bag!

The second brother, Yan Xueheng, looked at the gold medal in front of him and suddenly felt a little confused:

"Dad, this gold medal is almost identical to the one from 1984, except for the year and the letters."

Yan Xueyuan, the third brother standing next to him, curled his lip:

"Second brother, can you look a little closer? This one has a pigeon on the back, while the one from '84 had a group of people. The difference is huge! How can they be exactly the same?"

Yan Xueheng flipped it over and indeed found that it was different:

"Hey, I just didn't notice."

"Xueqian, you've seen these treasures, so hurry up and put them away. Have your dad put them in the bank safe later, along with the other pieces, as family heirlooms!"

The old lady took off the gold medal from her neck and handed it to her eldest grandson, giving him some earnest advice.

"Okay, Grandma."

Soon, all the gold medals were put away and packed away.

The three children, each carrying a backpack, entered the yard together.

Seeing that there was no excitement to be had, the onlookers dispersed.

However, seeing five gleaming gold medals in person today was quite an eye-opening experience.

They could probably talk about this for a lifetime.

In the afternoon, Yan Jiefang took out his cell phone and called all his relatives and friends one by one to invite them to a gathering in a private room on the second floor of Chunfeng Restaurant that evening.

Upon receiving the invitation, everyone naturally agreed immediately.

By evening, the families of Yan Jiefang, He Yuzhu, Yan Jiekuang, and Yan Jiedi had gathered.

The Yan Bugui couple, who somehow heard the news, also had a meal together in a private room at Chunfeng Restaurant.

As more and more people arrived, two tables were no longer enough, so they simply opened three tables.

There was one table for adult men drinking, one table for women, and one table for children.

Yan Bugui originally wanted to join the adults' table, but he was rejected and moved to the children's table.

But he didn't care. With no one around, he opened a bottle of Maotai, sipped his liquor, and ate a table full of meat and vegetables. No one was competing with him for the food. He was incredibly content.

This was a feast he could never have dreamed of before!

It was much better than the food I ate at Chunfeng Restaurant last time.

At Yan Jiefang's table, everyone congratulated him on winning 15 gold medals, defeating the foreigners in a spectacular fashion, which was truly gratifying.

After exchanging a few compliments, the conversation quickly turned to everyday life.

Now Yan Jiefang's family doesn't talk about it.

He Yuzhu's family owns two restaurants, which are thriving, and they also have cars, air conditioners, and various electrical appliances.

Last year, with the help of Yan Jiefang, I bought a complete courtyard house!

My son, He Xiao, is also dating a girlfriend, and things are basically going well. It looks like they'll be getting married by the end of the year.

Even in the capital, he would definitely be a winner in life.

Only the families of Yan Jiekuang and Yan Jiedi were somewhat inferior.

However, they are now working at Factory 774, which offers very good benefits, and their lives are not bad.

More importantly, next year, Factory 774 will establish the only true lithography machine factory in China.

Needless to say, it is definitely the best factory in the country.

We'll arrange for Yan Jiekuang and his junior brother and brother-in-law to join us, and they'll take off with the lithography machine factory in the future!

Things will definitely get better and better.

After the gathering, Yan Jiefang gave each of them a copy of relevant materials and told them to study them carefully when they got home.

Write down anything you don't understand and come to him to ask when you have time.

Seeing the serious expression on their second brother/brother-in-law's face, the two immediately realized that this information was very important and resolved to study it carefully and thoroughly.

Yan Jiefang could tell from their expressions that they had taken his words to heart, which put him at ease.

Although they will be assigned to these programs even if they don't study hard, it would be better if they could establish themselves on their own merits.

For the next period of time, Yan Jiefang was also busy, with people constantly coming to visit him.

Fortunately, the officials mostly came to offer their condolences and didn't make any excessive demands.

Most people just want an autograph and that's about it.

In addition, the Communist Youth League also upgraded his honor from National New Long March Assault Pioneer to National New Long March Assault Pioneer Model.

Normally, he should have been a model worker last time, but because he was on unpaid leave at the time, and he still valued his work attitude, he was demoted one level.

Now, with the advancement of reforms and the increasing openness of related policies, coupled with his remarkable achievements, the title of National New Long March Pacesetter is a natural consequence.

If he didn't run a private company now, he would probably have been awarded the title of "National Model Worker".

Just when everything seemed perfect, Yan Jiefang frowned deeply as he looked at the amount of money received in the previous quarter.
