Chapter 857: Chapter 857 Yun Xiaoxiao Goes to Take the Driving Test

Actually, Yun Xiaoxiao still had some doubts as to why the old leaders living in this special compound had such good chess skills.

But it was just curiosity, and she didn’t ask.

"Alright, you can leave now. He will stay with us, and I’ll have someone send him back in the afternoon."

Elder Wu didn’t mind at all.

"Elder Huo, we’ll be going first."

After leaving, Elder Wu said, "Elder Huo is my cousin. Are you curious about why his chess skills are so good?"

Yun Xiaoxiao was curious, but she hadn’t asked before.

"My grandfather, his grandfather, was famous for his chess skills, so we learned together."

Elder Wu was already in his sixties now.

He was born in the 1920s.

"Now retired, he can’t sit idle, so I found something for him to do. Most of his children are in the military, and his grandchildren are in high school and college."

Elder Wu didn’t say much more.

"Thank you, Elder Wu."

Zhao Tianlei knew that Elder Huo had become Xiao Bao’s teacher, and since the person held a high position, it gave him a strong backing in the Capital City.

"Remember to send me two bottles of that Ginseng Wine."

"Certainly won’t forget you."

Da Bao left with Elder Wu again.

"Wife, with Xiao Bao studying under Elder Huo, he might take the path of joining the military in the future."

Zhao Tianlei once wanted to join the military, but after graduating from high school, he met Yun Xiaoxiao and didn’t go.

He had some regrets.

"We don’t make choices for the children; we just guide them in their studies without interfering in their choices."

Yun Xiaoxiao never thought about what the two kids would become in the future.

She wouldn’t plan their career paths, like in finance management or economics.

They can follow their interests.

"I’ll listen to you."

"But should we get a car? It’s not good to rely on Elder Huo for sending Xiao Bao to study."

"This winter, let’s buy an SUV."

"Alright."

After having lunch outside, they went to the dealership to pick out a car.

They finalized the car and had to come back the next day to pay.

Yun Xiaoxiao even went to the electronics factory to pretend to learn a bit.

"Let’s go get a driver’s license."

"Alright."

When Yun Xiaoxiao learned she also had to learn how to repair cars, she almost wanted to curse.

But what could she do?

She still had to learn.

She learned along with Zhao Tianlei.

The two would go for driving lessons whenever they had free time.

Both of them picked it up very quickly.

Yun Xiaoxiao already knew how to drive. Even though she hadn’t driven for years since coming here, she hadn’t forgotten her driving skills.

But car repair was not that easy.

However, they had money and gave their driving instructor a big red envelope, and he pointed out the main points to them.

When Yun Xiaoxiao received her driver’s license, she cried tears of joy.

It was even harder than getting a driver’s license in modern times.

She also learned how to repair cars.

But it was also the arrival of the first snow.

It was snowing.

Wang Yuemei’s pregnancy was advancing.

Little Aunt Zhao wanted Wang Yuemei to stop going to work and rest at home, but Wang Yuemei was unwilling.

She felt she could still keep working.

Wang Yuemei got pregnant in March, and it was now November.

"Yuemei, the roads are icy and snowy now, you should rest at home. Once you’re through your confinement period, you can return to work at the shop."

Her belly was quite big. Even with the thick winter clothes, her pregnant belly was still apparent.

Zhang Lanhua’s pregnancy was not as far along; she was only six months in.

With some persuasion from the elders, Wang Yuemei finally stopped going to work at the shop.
