Learning to play games, a 40-year-old woman achieves a remarkable turnaround.

Chapter 291 A True Little Rich Woman

The morning sunlight streamed in through the car window, and Yuan Bao rubbed his sleepy eyes.

The train has entered Beijing, and the number of tall buildings outside the window is gradually increasing.

"You're awake?" Aunt Yuan handed over a thermos. "Drink some water, we'll be there soon."

Yuan Bao took the water glass and turned to look at the seat opposite him.

The grandfather sat upright, but his eyes were fixed on the window, his expression a mixture of anticipation and nervousness.

Grandma held her blue and white porcelain jar tightly, afraid that it would break during the bumpy journey;

My aunt is checking if all the sewing machine parts are present;

Bao Guo excitedly pressed his face against the car window, counting the tall buildings that passed by.

"Attention passengers, the train is about to arrive at Kyoto Station..."

As the broadcast began, Yuan Bao's heart started racing.

She subconsciously touched the little 9 she was holding in her arms, and the fluffy feel of the little 9 calmed her excited emotions a little.

When I got off the train, there were already people waiting on the platform.

Mr. Chen was dressed casually, with Manager Li standing beside him, and three black private cars parked behind them, making him particularly eye-catching in the crowd.

"Boss Chen!" Yuan Bao was the first to run over.

Mr. Chen smiled and took the luggage from her hands: "You must be tired from the journey. The car is ready; we'll take you directly to the courtyard house."

Three black cars carrying a family drove out of the train station.

The bustling scene in Beijing once again dazzled everyone.

Baoguo pressed himself against the car window, exclaiming repeatedly, "Wow! It feels like only half a year since I last came, how come this building has grown so much taller!"

"Look at that shopping mall!"

"What brand of car is that?"

Although Grandpa tried to remain calm, his slightly trembling hands betrayed his excitement.

Grandma kept saying, "The roads in big cities are so wide, more than three times wider than the main street in our county town..."

The car drove back into the quiet alley and finally stopped in front of the courtyard house where they had stayed during the Spring Festival.

Two brand-new lanterns hung on the vermilion gate, and the two large gilded characters "Yuan Residence" on the lintel gleamed in the sunlight.

"This...this is our home in Beijing from now on!" Mr. Yuan's voice trembled with excitement.

Boss Chen took out his key and opened the gate: "After you all went back home after the New Year, I arranged for people to renovate this courtyard, along with the other three courtyards, inside and out."

Upon entering the courtyard, everyone was stunned.

The courtyard, paved with bluestone slabs, was clean and tidy, surrounded by brand-new side rooms.

Two pomegranate trees were planted in front of the main house, and an exquisite birdcage was hanging there.

The kitchen is fully equipped with modern kitchen appliances, and the bathroom has the latest toilet and shower equipment.

"This...this is too good!" Yuan's mother touched the smooth marble stove, unable to believe her eyes.

Mr. Chen explained with a smile, "Considering the elderly's lifestyle, we deliberately preserved the traditional courtyard house layout, but the interior has been modernized. Every room has heating, so it won't be cold in winter."

Manager Li added, "We've prepared some daily necessities, and we can replenish them anytime if needed. Here's the location of the nearby farmers' market, and here are the hospital's contact details..."

The Yuan family visited each house in turn, and were pleasantly surprised.

The master bedroom will remain the same as before, for the maternal grandparents. The south-facing wing room will be for Yuan's parents, the two east-facing wing rooms will be for Yuan Bao and Bao Guo, and the west-facing wing room will be temporarily for the aunt.

Each room was furnished with brand new furniture, and even the bedding was brand new.

"How much money will this cost..." Grandma muttered softly.

Mr. Chen waved his hand: "Don't worry about the money, just settle in first. Oh, by the way," he took an envelope from his briefcase, "this is the key to the shop near Peking University. Auntie can open it anytime once she's ready."

The aunt took the keys, her eyes immediately welling up with tears: "This...how can I accept this..."

At noon, Mr. Chen hosted a welcome dinner for the Yuan family at a nearby roast duck restaurant.

During the meal, he gave a detailed introduction to the precautions for living in Beijing and promised to help contact a reliable real estate agent to assist his uncle and aunt's family with their relocation.

It was already 3 p.m. when we got back to the courtyard house.

After seeing Mr. Chen off, the whole family sat in the courtyard drinking tea and resting, still somewhat dazed.

"We've... settled down in Beijing?" Baoguo scratched his head, feeling like he was dreaming.

Yuan Bao smiled and nodded, "Yes, brother. From today onwards, this is our new home."

Grandpa looked around, then suddenly stood up: "Come on, put out all the old things we brought. Especially Grandma's pickle jar, we need to find a good spot for it."

As items brought from his hometown were taken out and placed one by one, the unfamiliar courtyard gradually regained its familiar feel.

Grandma's pickling jar was placed in the most conspicuous spot in the kitchen; Grandpa's old pipe hung on the wall of the main room; Aunt's sewing machine was placed by the window of the west wing; and Yuan Bao's favorite rag doll from her childhood was placed on her bedside table.

As evening approached, Yuan Bao went outside for a stroll, released Butler Bai and Little White from his spatial storage, and then quickly returned.

Twenty minutes later, Butler Bai and Little Bai arrived at the courtyard.

Yuan Bao then busied herself arranging rooms for the two sisters.

After making the arrangements, Xiao Xiaobai helped Yuan Ma cook a simple dinner using the ingredients she brought from her hometown.

Although the kitchenware was all new, the familiar taste put everyone at ease.

After dinner, the whole family sat in the courtyard to enjoy the cool air.

The night sky in Beijing was much brighter than in the county town, and a few stars could be faintly seen.

“Starting tomorrow,” Grandpa tapped his pipe, “we’ll officially be settling down in Beijing. Baoguo and Baoya will get ready for school, and Grandma and Da Yaya will take care of things around the house…”

Yuan Bao quickly interjected, "Grandpa, from now on, Bai will be in charge of managing things at home, just like in the courtyard. Little Bai will be in charge of the kitchen. You, Grandma, and Mom can just enjoy yourselves!"

Mr. Yuan chimed in, "What about me? Can't I enjoy life too?"

“Dad, you’re still young. Go to the company we’ve helped you get into and continue to shine.”

After hearing this, Mr. Yuan laughed heartily: "Yes, yes, I will continue to shine and contribute."

Then, Yuan Bao looked up at the sky above the courtyard and suddenly remembered something: "Oh right, I need to apply for a Beijing household registration tomorrow, and also open a new bank account..."

Baoguo interjected, "We still need to buy bicycles! I think Peking University is a bit far from here."

My aunt whispered, "I want to go check out that shop first..."

The courtyard erupted in a lively discussion, with everyone talking at once.

A gentle night breeze rustled the leaves of the pomegranate tree, as if welcoming the new family that had settled in.

That night, Yuan Bao slept exceptionally well.

In her dream, she saw herself running on the campus of Peking University, with her family's smiling faces behind her.

Thinking about her points and coins in the system, as well as the skills she had mastered and these properties, she was already a veritable little rich woman.
