Chapter 254 - 252 Welcome Hero’s Return
Qin Jian stayed in the hospital for five days before returning to the village.
Jian Ying’s condition was slightly more serious than his because his trachea had been burned by the smoke, and he needed to stay in the hospital for a few more days. Moreover, since Jian Ying’s wife had also rushed over from the research institute, the organization decided to treat it as comforting a hero, so they let him take a couple more days of rest.
As soon as Qin Jian’s car arrived at the entrance of the village, he saw a crowd of villagers lining up, beating drums and gongs. The moment he stepped out of the car, the village Party secretary came up to shake his hand, expressing a collective welcome home for the hero from the whole village.
Li Junping and Qin Ru Hai were beaming with joy to see their son safe and sound, their faces almost blossoming into flowers with smiles.
"Qin Fengfeng’s mom! Your son has made great achievements this time! The whole nation knows about it! Now you don’t have to worry about finding a daughter-in-law for your son, right? I bet once the newspapers report it, girls from all over the country will be lining up to marry our Qin Jian," shouted Old Lady Li, waving a small red flag in her hand.
Li Junping, even more smug after hearing this, said, "Isn’t that the truth? But Old Lady Li, do you think just anyone can marry our Qin Jian? They also have to see if they match our conditions!"
"What? Even the daughter of a leader isn’t good enough?" the widow Zhang joined in wherever there was excitement.
"Of course, she’s more than good enough," she replied.
"What about An Hao, then?" There always seemed to be someone who brought up the most inconvenient subject.
