Reborn In The 90's: Saving My Siblings With A Fishing System

"Grandma, I am back."

Han Ruochen pushed open the door of her grandmother’s house and walked right in with the things that she had purchased; as for the man following after her, she didn’t even bother to look behind her.

Old Madam Han raised her head and smiled at her granddaughter, who had brought her youngest grandson along with her. However, when her gaze fell on the man behind Han Ruochen, she frowned slightly and asked, "Who is this, Ruochen?"

Han Ruochen paused and turned to look at the man behind her. She pursed her lips and softly sighed, "He is my colleague’s cousin, Commander Zhai Muchen."

"Ah!" Old Madam Han was greatly surprised when she heard Han Ruochen introduce the young man. She raised her head and looked at the man behind Han Ruochen. She clasped her hands together and exclaimed, "Oh, you are Old Man Zhai’s grandson. I saw you when you were very young; who would have thought that the young boy who loved eating apricots in my garden would grow up into such a fine and handsome young man?"

Zhai Muchen was a bit embarrassed when he heard Old Madam Han’s remark. He lowered his head and softly greeted the old woman, "Grandma Han, it’s nice to see you too."

Old Grandma Han was quite overjoyed to see Zhai Muchen. She hurriedly pulled him inside the house while asking him all about his military feats. There was nothing that could be done about it. Old Grandma Han just had this admiration when it came to military personnel.

When Han Ruochen saw how eagerly her grandmother dragged Zhai Muchen inside her house, she knew that her chance of kicking this man out had gone boom. She sighed and followed her grandmother inside with her brother; she even dragged the big bag of fishing equipment that she had brought with her and placed it in a corner inside the seemingly small yet clean house.

When Second Aunt Han saw Han Ruochen and Han Beijiang, she softly smiled at the two of them.

Han Ruochen noticed that her aunt was already serving Zhai Muchen with tea and snacks and felt even more helpless. Why was this great general, who was supposed to go back and train soldiers in the army, staying here? Just what was he thinking? Han Ruochen wondered if she had misheard the name of the chief who made great contributions to the nation and the army because this Zhai Muchen looked quite different from the kind of man who was divorced because he couldn’t give time to his wife.

"Ruochen, why are you standing there?" Old Madam Han did not forget her granddaughter just because she was busy paying attention to Zhai Muchen. "Come and sit down; you must be tired after running around the town." She then turned to look at Zhai Muchen and praised her granddaughter, "I don’t know what to say to her. She is so young and has a good job at the county, but she didn’t want to do that; she wants to fish like her grandfather. Usually, the people in the village won’t let women fish, but our family doesn’t believe in such a thing. It doesn’t matter who does it as long as they are capable."

Zhai Muchen smiled and said, "Miss Han must have her own reasons."

"Hmm," Old Madam Han didn’t say anything and simply hummed. Her expression turned a little sour. Earlier, her second grandson came running to her house and told her everything that had happened at home. Maybe it was because Old Madam Han offered the hungry Han Jianyou a good and hearty meal that the little brat started to have some warm feelings toward this grandmother of his.

He told his grandmother everything that his mother had done and how she had held his fees. How his sister now had to go and fish to earn money and fill up the hole that his mother had dug.

Old Madam Han was so furious that she called for her eldest son and gave him a dressing down right in front of her grandchildren. He was so big and already had children and grandchildren, and yet this brat was fooled by his wife, who knew nothing other than stirring trouble. She also beat up Meng Yunhan.

The fact that the woman had brought her niece to live with her and even gave her the surname Han was already like a knot in Old Madam Han’s heart, but she also gave away years of her son’s savings to her maternal home without considering the condition of her husband’s home. How could Old Madam Han not be furious? She was not only furious, but she was also filled with hatred toward herself and Meng Yunhan.

She should have rather hung herself from the beam and stopped her eldest son from marrying that woman; now look at this. That woman ruined not only her son but also her grandchildren. She wondered how she would be able to face Old Master Han after she went to the underworld. Their ancestors must be rolling in their graves after finding out that a woman like Meng Yunhan had married into their family. Such a greedy and ruthless woman – what was she even thinking about letting her enter her threshold!

However, the dirty linen of their family shouldn’t be shown to the public. So she could only swallow her anger and smile stiffly. "Well, my granddaughter is quite lucky. She was able to catch some delicacies that were sold for high prices. So of course, it got to her head." 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶

Han Ruochen: "..."

She didn’t say anything. From her grandmother’s expression, it seemed like she had found out about the good things that her mother had done. Anyway, it was a good thing that her grandmother found out about the reckless things that her mother had done. In the future, when she was done collecting evidence of her mother’s affair, she would start with her grandmother first. Anyway, without the rosy filter that her father had on his eyes, her grandmother would believe her much easily.
