Chapter 226: Prosperity 226 Previous Chapter Contents Next Chapter  "Xiao Sui? Come out and eat!" Shen Deng brought the dishes to the table and shouted from outside.

Gu Qingqing looked at the two little ones sleeping soundly on the bed and said, "Why don't you guys eat first? I'll watch them in the room, in case they roll down."

"No need, let's eat together." Chu Dai found two chairs and placed the backs of the chairs next to the bed.

The bed is quite big, and the two little ones can sleep next to each other in it. They can’t roll off when they wake up. After the two brothers learned to walk, they never fell when they slept alone. When they wake up, they will slowly twist themselves off the bed.

Gu Qingqing took another look, confirmed that nothing would happen, and followed the man out of the room.

The main room is outside the room. There is no light in the yard, so we eat in the main room.

Shen Deng's two children also came back from their grandmother's house and helped to serve the dishes and get the bowls and chopsticks. When they saw the stir-fried pork with garlic sprouts, their mouths watered.

"Mom, why is today such a good day that you are willing to buy meat?" the little girl asked.

"When did your father never buy meat when he came back?" The woman glared at her.

"I've never seen you cook it all before. You always cut it into minced meat and mixed it in the sauerkraut. You had to use a flashlight to find it." The girl said with a smile.

"We have guests at home. Don't just put the meat into your bowl when you see it." The woman was too lazy to talk to the girl: "Bring the rice over too."

Shen Deng worked in a state-owned timber factory and earned about 30 yuan a month, which was enough to support his family.

His family is simple, with a wife, son and daughter, a family of four.

The elderly people above died early, and only my daughter-in-law's parents are still there.

The food at home was better than that of other families in the village. Rice and flour were often available. Shen Deng was a non-agricultural household and received a food supply every month.

But it’s not good to eat it every day, every few days is fine.

The eldest son of Shen Deng is relatively quiet and speaks little. He is eighteen years old this year and is currently in his second year of high school and will graduate soon.

The daughter is sixteen, two years older than Shen Sui, and is in the first year of high school.

So when she saw Shen Sui, her eyes widened with shock and she was speechless. She pointed at the boy and stammered, "Mom...he he he..."

Is this gentle and well-dressed person in front of me the dirty kid from before?

"He is your cousin, Shen Sui." Shen Deng felt a headache when he saw his noisy daughter. His children had such different personalities.

"Comrade, please sit down. It's time to eat."

"Thank you for your help, Brother Shen." Gu Qingqing helped to move the bowl of dishes a little so that the woman could continue to put the dishes on: "Actually, there is no need to do so much. Sisters-in-law, you are too enthusiastic."

There were five or six dishes on the table, stir-fried pork with garlic sprouts, cold-mixed black fungus, boiled shrimps, pan-fried hairtail, stir-fried choy sum, and an egg soup.

He must have seen the children around and made some rice porridge for them.

"Sister, you don't have to be so polite. Xiao Sui is our nephew after all. We are happy to see that he is doing well. We can't thank you enough for raising him so well."

After hearing what her mother said, the little girl finally came back to her senses.

Is this person in front of me really Shen Sui? !

She turned to look at her brother next to her, who didn't react just like her.

Shen Chi frowned slightly, obviously unable to figure out what kind of experience could cause such a drastic change in an inferior and introverted boy.

Her eyes fell on a man who was much taller than Shen Sui. He was well-spoken and reserved in his every move.

"Hurry up and eat, it will get cold soon." The woman called out, "Lili, why are you standing there like an idiot? Go get some rice."

"Ah? Oh." Shen Li came back to her senses after being urged by her mother and was about to help Gu Qingqing serve the rice.

"Thank you, little girl. I can do it myself." Gu Qingqing said softly.

Shen Sui served the rice to his brother-in-law, and then to his elder sister. Before he sat down, he went to the door to check if his two little nephews were awake.

Shen Deng and his wife looked at each other and could see that Shen Sui really treated them as family members.

"Eat your food, sister," the woman greeted warmly.

"Okay, then we won't be polite. Sisters-in-law, you guys eat too." Gu Qingqing smiled with her eyes curved, and her eyebrows relaxed. Through the conversation, Gu Qingqing learned that the woman's name was He Yu, and her family was from the same village as Shen Sui's mother.

The older of the two children is called Shen Chi and the younger one is called Shen Li.

Shen Chi was fine. He ate in silence without saying much. Shen Li's eyes kept glancing at Gu Qingqing and Chu Dai, which made her feel very uncomfortable.

Shen Sui moved his chair forward a little and used his body to block her sweep.

Only then did Gu Qingqing feel better.

Then he shook his head and smiled, she was just a sixteen-year-old girl.

During the meal, He Yu talked about a lot of Shen Sui's past: "When he was two or three years old, his aunt brought her son back to her parents' home. Because of a steamed bun, his cousin beat little Sui half to death, and the old lady turned a blind eye and did nothing."

"His mother had a quarrel with her mother-in-law and sister-in-law over this matter before. Later, she took him back to her parents' home in a rage. Her family members instigated her and said that Xiao Sui was a troublemaker. They didn't take him to the clinic and let him suffer so that he would learn his lesson."

"Fortunately, his mother only had this one son. She was heartbroken and didn't listen to his grandmother. She took Xiao Sui to the town clinic and found out that he had a broken bone."

He Yu sighed, "It was also because of this incident that the gap between Yingzi and the old lady and her sister-in-law became deeper and deeper. She always went back to her mother's house, and the allowance sent by her husband also went to her mother's house to supplement her family."

"The old lady must have hated it because the money her son earned at the front was given to her daughter-in-law's family. They often fought after that, but Yingzi didn't lose because of the help of her family."

Shen Deng added: "Four years ago, Aze died, and the old lady didn't last long either."

It is easy to imagine what happened next. The orphan and his widowed mother would definitely be exploited when they returned to their mother's home.

He Gui's wife asked her mother-in-law to find a way to cheat her sister-in-law out of all her money. The last money Shen Ze received was the pension issued by the army.

At this point, He Ying had almost no money left.

"Yingzi is also stupid. She thinks her parents' support for her and her mother-in-law and sister-in-law are doing it for her own good. In fact, they are only helping her because they are afraid that the money in her hands will fall into the hands of the old lady."

Shen Ze is dead, the old lady is gone, and the money has been scammed, so there is no need to pretend anymore.

He Gui's sons all went to school, and Shen Sui had to go to work in the production team. Children of this age usually collected grass for pigs and herded cattle. Shen Sui did adult work and was scolded and had harsh food when he returned home.

This is also the reason why Shen Sui didn't have much flesh on his body when Gu Qingqing first met him.

After hearing this, Gu Qingqing's knuckles turned white while holding the chopsticks.

No wonder, when Shen Sui first adopted him, he was very well-behaved. He would get up before dawn to clean the yard and weed the vegetable garden in the backyard. He would also boil water and cook for himself, and would not say a word when he was wronged in school.

He was afraid that Gu Qingqing would think he was a burden and would only cause trouble.

After the meal, Gu Qingqing was extremely depressed. She thought that if the He family dared to come, she would report them to the police and say that they were encroaching on the inheritance of the martyrs and abusing their children.

Seeing that she was biting her lips tightly, Chu Dai put down his chopsticks, leaned slightly back in his chair, and held her left hand with his right hand from under the table and placed it on her leg.

The man's warm big palm wrapped her tender hand in his palm to comfort her.

"Brother Shen," the man said, "Did Asui's aunt marry in this village?"

"Yes, that's why I often went to my mother's house to eat and drink there. That's why Yingzi's conflicts with them became more and more serious."

The man nodded, no further questions.

After dinner, Shen Sui helped to clear the table. Gu Qingqing took a larger porcelain bowl, filled it with half a bowl of rice, poured some egg soup, and scooped some eggs.

"Is it enough? Do you want to add more?" He Yu said, "Children are growing up. I think your two children are well taken care of, but they are too thin. They need to eat more."

Tuantuan looks like their father every year, with slender bones and thin body. He doesn't gain much weight, but he actually eats a lot every day.

The meat coupons from the two grandfathers and my father's allowance were used to provide the little ones with meat every day. They would cook meat in different ways, such as red date meat pie soup and minced meat and egg custard.

"That's enough. I'll just make some more milk powder later."

He Yu stopped talking immediately.

He is over one year old and still eats milk powder every day. It seems that his family conditions are really good.

When her two children were young, they had no milk to drink and could only drink porridge. The conditions were poor at that time and the men did not go to work in the sawmill.

Shen Li's eyes were fixed on the man with an upright posture. She had never seen such a good-looking man, with sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, and a handsome appearance.

He has a temperament that the people around her don't have. Compared with him, the classmates in the class...

There is no comparison at all.

Shen Chi noticed that her eyes were glued to the man not far away, and reminded her: "Don't think about things you shouldn't think about."

"No way." Shen Li denied it flatly: "I just think their clothes are made of good material and they don't look like ordinary people."

Although her father worked in a state-owned factory, he was only given a certain amount of cloth coupons each year. He was lucky enough to have two new sets of clothes made for her, which she had to wear when visiting relatives during festivals and holidays.

She lowered her eyes to look at the clothes with two or three patches on them, then looked at the woman's lotus pink long-sleeved suit. It would be a lie to say she wasn't envious.

"Nothing is the best." Shen Chi said nothing more, wiped the table with a rag, and went to the kitchen.

Chu Dai took the bowl from the woman and went to the room with her to feed the two little ones dinner.

Tuan Tuan Niannian was still sleeping when he was woken up by Gu Qingqing.

Pulling out a chair, the couple sat by the bed, each holding one in his arms. Chu Dai held the porcelain bowl with his slender fingers and fed his eldest son a mouthful, then fed his younger son who was rubbing his eyes and yawning.

Gu Qingqing thought of something and asked, "How is Xue Xu going to get home tonight?"

Unexpectedly, she would mention this person. The man paused and said, "He is not a child. He can find a place to live by himself."

"Oh." After a while, she whispered again: "How do you know he has no children? Don't you usually have no contact with each other?"

"We are all from the same compound, who can keep such trivial matters secret?" The man looked at her with a half-smile: "Comrade Gu Qingqing, it's not good for you to care about other people's affairs in front of your man."

Gu Qingqing opened her mouth: "No, it's that Pei..."

Before she finished speaking, she heard the man's casual and drawn-out tone: "The organization is very disappointed in you." Eating milk powder, it seems that her family conditions are really good.

Chapter 227: Prosperity 227 Previous Chapter Contents Next Chapter  Little Tuantuan slurped up the soup and rice, waved her hands in her mother's arms and echoed, "Disappointed!"

The man laughed and pinched his little face.

"Yes, disappointed."

Gu Qingqing looked at the father and son singing the same tune, raised her head and looked at the man sincerely: "Why don't you take him to sleep with Asui at night, and I can sleep with Niannian."

Niannian in the man's arms woke up from her doze, and nodded repeatedly when she heard what A Niang said: "Nian Niang~ A Niang is going to sleep~"

Chu Dai broke up a large piece of egg and fed it to his eldest son. Without changing his expression, he said, "Chu Luoying, you are two years old now. Go back and find a room on the third floor to sleep. If you have any problems, call your uncle."

Niannian was getting anxious, not knowing how he had already turned two. He climbed onto his father's arm and stood up from his arms, his little feet jumping around anxiously: "Nian Niannian! One year old!"

He didn't understand. He had just celebrated his first birthday before the New Year, so how could he suddenly be two years old?

Chu Dai's whole body was stiff. Gu Qingqing looked in the direction where her son's little feet were stepping and burst out laughing.

Fearing that he would be beaten, she quickly pulled her younger son over to sit with his brother, and carefully looked at the man's face: "You can't beat the child, how about you rub it?"

The man was somewhat speechless: "When did I ever beat them? Let them sleep with Asui tonight, and you help me massage them."

Gu Qingqing said embarrassedly: "This is not good."

Chu Dai saw through her half-hearted thoughts and sighed. After calming down, he scooped a spoonful of soup and rice to feed his youngest son: "Then I'll sleep with Tuan Tuan and Asui."

Seeing the boy coming over with a glass of water, he turned around and asked, "A Sui, can I sleep with you tonight?"

When Shen Sui met his elder sister's gaze, he swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth and changed them to: "No, I will sleep with Tuantuan every year."

Chu Dai sighed: "Okay then." There was a happy smile in the corners of his eyes and eyebrows, and his reluctance just now was obviously pretended.

Instead, Gu Qingqing was a little worried: "Can you take care of them? They have to get up in the middle of the night to pee. It's okay if they pee in their own bed, but now it's better not to cause trouble to others."

"Yes." Shen Sui looked into his brother-in-law's smiling eyes and sighed in his heart: "It's in the next room. If I can't take care of it, I'll call you."

"...Okay, go wash up first, I'll come later."

After feeding Shen Sui, Chu Dai took the bowl and followed her to the kitchen.

"Just give me the bowl." Seeing that he wanted to wash it himself, He Yu took the bowl from the man, "I've poured hot water into the basin for you. The towel has never been used. It was given to me by my nephew's kid on his first birthday. They are all new, so don't worry about using them."

"Thank you, sister-in-law." Chu Dai nodded in thanks.

The Shen family's couple are nice and honest people, and I don't see them having any ulterior motives.

They are a bit like the people in Datunzi Village, simple and honest.

He Yu finished washing the dishes and left because she was afraid that they would feel uncomfortable. She happened to meet her daughter standing at the door. She pulled her and said, "Why are you standing here? You don't have to go to school tomorrow. Go to bed early. Let your dad ride his bike to take you there tomorrow."

They went to high school in town and walked a long way.

It took Chu Dai about an hour to drive around the winding roads this time, but that was also because he was not familiar with the road conditions.

Brother and sister Shen Chi and Shen Li usually climb over from the path at the back of the mountain, but it still takes an hour and a half, and they have to go in the dark at dawn. However, they are not afraid because they have company.

"I haven't washed my face yet." After saying that, she broke away from He Yu's hand and walked inside.

"This kid is so impulsive." He Yu shook his head and went back to the house, wanting to ask the man something.

Shen Li entered the kitchen, bent down and took out an enamel basin from under the washstand, then went to the stove and picked up the kettle to pour hot water.

Chu Dai wrung out the towel and said to the boy next to him, "Just one piece, let your sister wash it first."

Shen Sui had no objection. He glanced at Shen Li in front of the stove and directly picked up the basin: "Go to the house to wash it. Tuantuan and Niannian should also wipe it. I will bring it back later."

"OK."

Just as Shen Li came over with the basin to add cold water, the two men had already walked out of the kitchen door.

She pursed her lips, pulled off the towel and threw it into the basin to soak it.

In the room, Gu Qingqing first wiped the faces and hands of the two little ones, and then washed herself.

The man took the towel from her, washed it, wiped his face twice casually, washed it twice more, turned the towel over, folded it in half, and handed it to Shen Sui.

After washing his face, Shen Sui poured the water outside at the edge of the yard, then went to the kitchen with the basin and towel.

Seeing that Shen Li was still there, he just nodded slightly, put down the washbasin, hung up the towel, and turned to leave.

Shen Li muttered: "...Isn't it just my good fortune?"

Tuan Tuan and Niannian were taken to the next room by their uncle. The two little guys who originally wanted to pester their mother couldn't take their eyes off the red date cakes and held them in their hands and refused to let go.

Chu Dai brought over two bottles and a packet of milk powder: "They just woke up and won't fall asleep yet. Don't forget to make some milk for them when they get tired from playing."

"Know."

Chu Dai glanced at his two sons, turned around and left the room without any reluctance.

He was very confident in Shen Sui, and sometimes Shen Sui took care of the two little ones more than Gu Qingqing.

Back in the room, the woman was sorting the baby's clothes and diapers in the bag, "Take this over later."

The man nodded, strode to the bed, held her in his arms, and whispered in her ear: "Do you want to rub it?"

Gu Qingqing blushed slightly, "You yourself..."

"Forget it," the man said calmly, "Let it hurt."

Gu Qingqing: “…”

After a while, she asked, "Does it really hurt?"

"Your son kicked you. Do you think it hurts?" Chu Dai held her in his arms, resting his chin on her forehead. He sighed and said, "I'll show you when I get back."

No matter how many beautiful thoughts you have outside, they will all be gone.

The night is as dark as ink and it is quiet and silent outside the window.

The young couple seldom sleep peacefully in each other's arms like this. With two little ones, their time alone becomes less.

Gu Qingqing nestled in his warm embrace, feeling a little drowsy, but still forced her eyelids open and said, "Tell me when Goudan's transfer order comes. I want to visit the Construction Corps then, so I can come back with him."

"Yeah." The man closed his eyes and patted her back lightly: "I'll go with you then." He hadn't been back for two years.

Bring the two little ones back to have a look, Lao Guan will definitely be very happy.

After Gu Qinglie and his men finish this battle, not only will he be transferred, but Lao Guan will definitely be transferred as well.

It’s actually quite good. The border town is too lonely and Guan Xun is old, so it’s time to move to another place.

As long as this battle is won, the border town will be safe for ten years.

I don’t know how the investigation into the collusion between the two countries is going. He and Gu Qinglie do not belong to the same corps or organization, so he has no right to interfere.

Before, when Chu Yuan and Chu Zhan were at home, they said in person that they had not concealed anything, which was one thing, but now it would definitely not work to take the initiative to ask.

Thinking that she would send a telegram to Gu Qinglie in a couple of days to ask about his safety, the woman, half asleep and half awake, subconsciously reached her hand into his shirt and moved down along the scar.

Chu Dai's scalp tingled and he took a breath of cold air.

The man's Adam's apple rolled up and down, and he endured it to the extreme.

Finally, he whispered in her ear, "...don't pinch it."

I had a good sleep tonight.

Shen Sui really took care of the two little ones and they didn't make any noise or noise at night.

Shen Li was going to school, so she woke up very early. She glanced at the room, went to the kitchen to get some water and wash up, and said to He Yu who was making breakfast, "She gave the child to Shen Sui to take care of. What does she think of Shen Sui? A servant? This is not the old society. She doesn't even want to take care of the child but wants to sleep with a man. How shameless!"

"Are you so angry so early in the morning? What does it have to do with you if she sleeps with her own man? Hurry up and wash your face, eat, and go to school. Your brother has left long ago." He Yu opened the lid of the pot, took out the steamed wheat bran buns and put them on the plate next to it.

It was too hot, so she moved quickly and blew on her hands from time to time, and white smoke filled the room.

Shen Li snorted, her fingers touched the warm water, her eyes rolled, and she suddenly bent over and cried out, "Mom, my stomach hurts a little, can I not go to school today?"

"That's great. Ask your father to take you to the town clinic. If you are sick, you can get treatment. If you are not sick, you can go to school."

"Mom!" Shen Li stamped her feet anxiously. She had heard yesterday that Shen Sui and the others would have to leave after walking around the village in the morning. In the end, she just gave up and said, "My life has come. I don't want to go to school."

"As long as you're not dead, you have to go," He Yu was unmoved. How could she not know what her daughter was thinking? She killed her messy thoughts in the cradle: "That man is a military marriage. If you dare to mess with me, I will ask your father to send you to the police station. You can move your household registration to wherever you want. Don't embarrass yourself in my house."

Shen Li pouted, knowing that her mother would do what she said. After washing her face, she took two wheat bran buns and walked out.

"Have you taken your schoolbag?" He Yu asked.

"I'm going to call my dad for dinner! Didn't you tell him to take me there last night?" she said angrily.

He Yu ignored her after hearing this.

During breakfast, besides them, there was only He Yu at the table. Gu Qingqing asked curiously, "Where are Brother Shen and the others?"

"Xiao Chi went to school early in the morning. They have to go to town for high school. Some schools are far away, so they have to go early. Didn't Lao Shen come back on a bicycle yesterday? He promised Xiao Li last night that he would take her to school today. Girls are more delicate." He Yu broke off half of the steamed bun and asked, "Girls, are you going back today?"

"Yes, I'll take Asui for a walk in the village in the morning, go to the state-owned restaurant for lunch, and go back in the afternoon." Gu Qingqing said with a smile.

"Very good, very good." He Yu did not try to keep her, for fear that the people from the He family would hear the letter and come running over. Their family now consists of Shen Sui's grandparents, aunt and three boys.

With elderly parents and young children to take care of, she was really worried that the young couple wouldn't be able to cope with this situation. The He family was typical scoundrels, and they probably had no idea what to do with the young couple in front of them.

After the meal, Gu Qingqing gave some money and food coupons to He Yu, but He Yu refused to take them. Finally, Gu Qingqing had to stuff the money and food coupons under the pillow when she was tidying up the clothes of the two little ones.

It’s not that much, based on the standard of two meals in a state-owned hotel, and the remaining money can be used as accommodation fees.

Chu Dai held Xiao Tuantuan, Shen Sui held Xiao Nian Nian, and Gu Qingqing carried a cloth bag. They waved to He Yu, "Thank you, sister-in-law. Let's go back."

"Okay, okay." He Yu watched their backs walking away, thinking about how Shen Sui had a hard childhood, but now he finally lives a good life.

She returned to her room, thinking that she would take out the quilt to dry in the sun and put it away.

As soon as she picked up the pillow, she saw the money and bills underneath. She was speechless for a long time.

This money note is not only a reward for them, but also means that he does not owe anyone a favor. Shen Sui has no relationship with anyone here.

After looking for a long time, He Yu picked up the money and put it away.

After carrying the luggage bag to the car and closing the trunk, Chu Dai saw a man walking towards him.

Xue Xu was holding a cigarette box and matches in his hand. He took a look and saw that it was the pack of Daqianmen cigarettes from yesterday.

"Want one?" Xue Xu took a cigarette out of the box, put it between his fingers, slowly picked it up and put it to his lips, raised his eyebrows and asked him.

"I've given up." Chu Dai snorted and laughed: "It's really unlucky to be your brother."

"I've finished smoking mine. I'll just give it back to him next time I come." Xue Xu didn't care and put the cigarette box in his pocket. He pushed out the matchbox with his fingertips, picked up a match, and lit it.

Holding the flame in his palm, he took a puff, then shook the matchstick, threw it casually at his feet, and exhaled the smoke: "Give me a ride, Captain Chu." "Okay, let your father take you to the town health center. If you are sick, you can get treatment, otherwise you can go to school."

"Mom!" Shen Li stamped her feet anxiously. She had heard yesterday that Shen Sui and the others would have to leave after walking around the village in the morning. In the end, she just gave up and said, "My life has come. I don't want to go to school."

"As long as you're not dead, you have to go," He Yu was unmoved. How could she not know what her daughter was thinking? She killed her messy thoughts in the cradle: "That man is a military marriage.

As soon as she picked up the pillow, she saw the money and bills underneath. She was speechless for a long time.

This money note is not only a reward for them, but also means that he does not owe anyone a favor. Shen Sui has no relationship with anyone here.

After looking for a long time, He Yu picked up the money and put it away.

After carrying the luggage bag to the car and closing the trunk, Chu Dai saw a man walking towards him.

Xue Xu was holding a cigarette box and matches in his hand. He took a look and saw that it was the pack of Daqianmen cigarettes from yesterday.

"Want one?" Xue Xu took a cigarette out of the box, put it between his fingers, slowly picked it up and put it to his lips, raised his eyebrows and asked him.

"I've given up." Chu Dai snorted and laughed: "It's really unlucky to be your brother."

"I've finished smoking mine. I'll just give it back to him next time I come." Xue Xu didn't care and put the cigarette box in his pocket. He pushed out the matchbox with his fingertips, picked up a match, and lit it.

Holding the flame in his palm, he took a puff, then shook the matchstick, threw it casually at his feet, and exhaled the smoke: "Give me a ride, Captain Chu."

Chapter 228: Prosperity 228 Previous Chapter Contents Next Chapter  Chu Dai didn't find it strange that he looked so nonchalant. Although Xue Xu was a civilian, there were a few gentlemen among the children in the compound. They were all descendants of a group of veterans, so they had inherited some of his genes.

"How did you get here?" he asked.

"Take the bus." Turning his head, Xue Xu saw two children and stood a little further to the side.

"How did you get to town?" the man asked again.

"Take a ride on my fellow villager's ox cart." Xue Xu simply put out the cigarette, leaving the remaining cigarette at his fingertips.

Chu Dai sneered, "Wait, we are going to go around the village."

"Together." Xue Xu looked at Gu Qingqing and asked, "Sister-in-law, do you mind?"

Gu Qingqing smiled and shook her head.

I couldn't help but think of Xiao Xiao's words in my mind. Commander Xue is a very upright person, and so is his son, very capable.

It’s just that Mrs. Xue is difficult to get along with.

Don't provoke it if there is nothing to do.

Too fierce.

The little guy didn't need to be held, and the two brothers were chasing and fighting in the alley.

Gu Qingqing looked around and found that the mud brick houses around were similar to the former Gu family's. The people from the production team were going to work one after another. When they saw them, they looked at them curiously for a few more times but did not say anything.

Yesterday afternoon, a car parked at the entrance of the village attracted a lot of attention. Neighbors and villagers chatted for a long time. Someone with a little knowledge said, "This is a car from the army. The brand is military."

The villagers believed it without much questioning. They had seen people who could afford to drive cars, except for the government and the military.

They also knew who had returned. Yesterday, the captain went back and told his wife that Shen Sui from the Shen family had returned.

And life is good now.

When they saw the two little kids, they couldn't help but take a few more glances at them. Their eyes fell on the boy behind them. Someone said in surprise, "It's really the little kid from the Shen family. He has grown so big..."

Someone looked at a thin woman at the back with a strange expression.

Xue Xu followed their gaze and said to Chu Dai, "That's Aze's sister."

Chu Dai glanced at it casually and quickly looked away.

When the woman saw Shen Sui, she wanted to come up, but was stopped by the captain's wife, who shook her head at her and whispered a few words.

The woman stopped and stared at Shen Sui, refusing to move away.

Gu Qingqing stepped aside to block her gaze, put her arm around Shen Sui's shoulders and spoke to him softly, "Do you want to go take a look at the old house?"

Shen Sui shook her head: "Sister, I want to go back." She didn't have a deep impression of this place and there was nothing to miss.

He took a walk just to see if it could reconcile with his childhood memories, but when he saw these houses and roads, he felt they were a little blurry.

Logically speaking, he has such a good memory, so he shouldn't be unable to remember.

Maybe it’s because it’s not important, or maybe your subconscious mind doesn’t want to remember it.

There aren't any good memories after all.

Gu Qingqing didn't ask any more questions, just said: "Okay."

She turned to Chu Dai and said, "No more walking around. Let's go back. It's a good opportunity to have lunch at the state-owned restaurant we went to yesterday."

"Okay." Chu Dai walked forward, picked up the two little guys, and turned to walk towards the car.

Xue Xu was obviously too lazy to stay any longer and followed them into the car.

Chu Dai was driving and he sat next to him, while Shen Sui and Gu Qingqing sat in the back with their two little ones.

The vehicle started and slowly left the village entrance.

The He family who came from the next village were a step late. They beat their chests and stamped their feet as they watched the black car drive away.

In the car, the two little guys took off their shoes, crawled around on the seats, and occasionally leaned on the car window to watch the scenery outside receding.

After a while, Shen Sui said, "Sister."

"Hmm?" Gu Qingqing answered casually while playing with the longevity lock on her son's neck.

"What happened just now was..." He pondered for a long time, not knowing what to call him.

I can't say it no matter how hard I try.

"I know." Gu Qingqing looked at him with a smile.

Shen Sui was stunned for a moment, then came back to his senses and said, "Sister, I don't want to come here anymore."

Gu Qingqing looked at the man through the rearview mirror. She hesitated for a moment, raised her hand and rubbed Shen Sui's hair: "Okay, I won't come again."

Xue Xu wanted to say something, but felt that he was not qualified.

Indeed, Shen Ze is a hero, but not a good father.

If Chu Dai and the others hadn't come to visit the grave, he wouldn't have known that the child had suffered so much.

Xue Xu turned around from the front seat, wanting to apologize to him on behalf of his friend, but seeing the determination in the boy's eyes to completely break away from the past, the words got stuck in his throat and he didn't say them in the end.

At the entrance of the Qixing Production Team, the old lady of the He family pointed at the place where the vehicle was going away and cursed it as an ungrateful bastard. Upon hearing this, the production team leader frowned, but finally endured it and was too lazy to argue with this family.

In the car, Shen Sui remained silent after saying this. Tuantuan and Niannian might have sensed their uncle's loss, and the two brothers crawled all over him, one holding his left arm, the other holding his right arm, and put their heads close to his face.

Gu Qingqing also came over, gently rested her head on his shoulder, closed her eyes and whispered, "I'll take a nap."

Shen Sui glanced sideways at his elder sister, and the restlessness in his heart faded a little, gradually returning to calm.

He is not homeless like before.

It was past eleven when we arrived at the state-owned restaurant. The waiter saw the adorable twin brothers and smiled familiarly.

"Is the second floor okay, comrade?" she asked.

"Sure, could you please pour me a glass of warm water? The two little guys haven't had any water all morning." Gu Qingqing took out two bottles from the cloth bag she was carrying.

"Give it to me." The waiter said without hesitation: "I'll go to the kitchen to get you some warm water."

"That's fine." Gu Qingqing handed her two bottles.

Tuan Tuan climbed the stairs slowly by herself every year, and Chu Dai did not get impatient and just watched them lift their feet.

Occasionally, I would hold the little ones on their backs to help them.

Xue Xu looked at him, and although he didn't show it on his face, there was a hint of sadness in his eyes.

Gu Qingqing caught his fleeting emotion and was thoughtful.

After dinner, we drove towards the military area. The road was easy to drive on.

Chu Dai and Xue Xu chatted about some things in the army, which were nothing more than military transfers. As children of military families, many people's lives were arranged by their fathers, and even Chu Zhao was no exception.

Chu Dai and Xue Xu are two outliers. Both of them do not follow the plans of their fathers and have their own ideas and ambitions.

I want to go up further.

The two men chatted for a long time and felt that they had met too late. Gu Qingqing could hardly understand what they said. Holding her soft son in her arms, she yawned.

Shen Sui listened carefully and took note of it in his mind.

It was around two in the afternoon when they arrived at the military district. Chu Dai drove the car to the warehouse to register it. He would pick up the things in the car later.

She and Shen Sui each held a sleeping little one in their arms, and they were still a little dazed when they got home.

After hearing what He Yu said, I thought there would be a big fuss today, but I didn't expect to run into anyone from the He family at all.

Aunt Shen Sui is quite honest.

"Asui, wash your face, put Nian Nian on the bed, and go get some rest. You have to go to school tomorrow, so remember to do your homework tonight." She reminded him.

Now that Mr. Qin is at home, he checks Shen Sui's homework every day, and he reads more than before, with Mr. Qin accompanying him to explain and annotate each lesson.

Chu Dai also conducts random checks occasionally.

"Okay, sister, you should go and have a rest too. You don't have to cook tonight." Shen Sui remembered what her elder brother said before, "I can go to the flight crew kitchen to get food."

Gu Qingqing couldn't help wanting to laugh: "Forget it, it's not good for him to support our whole family alone. If you like the food in the flight crew kitchen, you can go there anytime. Big brother's allowance is not enough."

Shen Sui nodded and shook his head: "When Tuantuan and Nian Nian are older, I will take them with me."

"When they grow up, you will also go to the capital." Gu Qingqing looked at the thin boy in front of her. In a blink of an eye, he had been in her home for two years.

"If Sister doesn't like it..."

"I don't dislike you," Gu Qingqing said softly, "A Sui, we are your backers, not your obstacles. Go ahead and do what you want to do. As long as you look back, we will always be behind you."

Taking him back to visit the grave is one thing, and the other is to hope that he can let go of his worries and move on.

Shen Sui pursed his lips, looking at her with clear eyes: "Sister, I understand."

"Go and have a rest, put Nian Nian on our bed and help him take off his coat." Gu Qingqing nodded with a smile.

The boy carried his nephew to the second floor, put him down, took off his one-piece woolen jacket, and covered him with a quilt.

The slender figure bent slightly, looked at the sleeping little guy, and rubbed his slightly red little nose with his fingers.

Xiao Niannian's long, thick black eyelashes trembled, and she turned over and continued to sleep.

Shen Sui patted his back gently, and waited until he fell asleep soundly. When he was about to get up and leave, his eyes caught sight of the photo frame on the bedside table next to him.

This is the family photo taken with my second brother.

He didn't notice it at the time, but now he found that there was a slight curve at the corner of his mouth.

There was a glimmer of light in his eyes.

He is no longer the evasive and lifeless Shen Sui of the past.

He withdrew his gaze, walked out of the room lightly, and slowly closed the door.

After Gu Qingqing helped Xiao Tuantuan to urinate, the little guy became energetic again. She originally wanted to take her son upstairs to sleep for a while, but now it seems that is not possible.

Going up would wake up the other one.

Fortunately, the man came back soon.

Putting the things in his hand on the coffee table, he took Xiao Tuantuan and said, "Go to sleep for a while. We'll have dinner in the cafeteria tonight."

Gu Qingqing couldn't help but laugh: "A Sui just said the same thing, he was going to the flight crew kitchen to get food."

"He's quite thoughtful." Chu Dai nuzzled his son's face, making the little guy laugh. "I don't even dare to say openly that I want to go to the flight crew kitchen to get food."

After looking at Gu Canyang's cold face for a long time, I felt a little nervous.

Gu Qingqing snorted and laughed: "Brother doesn't eat people. Where's Xue Xu? Did he go back?"

"She went to the Tank Army and said she would come to talk to me in the evening." Chu Dai sat on the sofa with his son in his arms. "The sister-in-law who often comes to see you is the wife of your eldest brother's comrade-in-arms, the wife of his brother-in-law."

"I know." Gu Qingqing said, "Xiao Xiao told me about his family a long time ago, and it just so happens that I have something to discuss with you." She said, "A Sui, we are your backers, not your obstacles. Go ahead and do what you want to do. As long as you look back, we will always be behind you."

"I know." Gu Qingqing said, "Xiao Xiao told me about his family a long time ago, and it just so happens that I have something to discuss with you."

Chapter 229: Prosperity 229 Previous Chapter Contents Next Chapter  "Hmm?" The man looked up at her and took his wife's arm: "Sit down and talk."

Little Tuantuan crawled all over his father's body, and finally lay on him, buttoning his coat with her little hands.

Gu Qingqing sat down next to the man, tickling his open palm with her slender fingers. "Xiao Xiao told me that Xue Xu's wife got injured because she fell into the water and caught a cold. Did you know about this?"

The man let her do what she wanted and shook his head: "I never noticed it." The Xue family and his family had never had any contact.

"My grandmother gave me an old recipe when I went back home for the New Year. She said it can help to nourish the body and drive away the cold. Do you think I should try it on his wife?"

"Give it if you want." The man didn't take it seriously: "Give it to them and ask them to find a pharmacy to see a Chinese doctor to see if it's suitable for them to eat."

"I thought so too, but it's not a good idea to give it to him directly. I'll mention it to Pei Zhu when he comes over." Gu Qingqing said.

"Well, okay." The man was absent-minded. He held his wife's soft hand with his right hand and patted his son's little butt with his left hand.

In fact, Xue Xu could have come over at night and told him about this directly, but it would be a bad idea and too hurtful.

It would be better to let Pei Zhu start with his wife.

Gu Qingqing felt a little sleepy. She yawned and pulled the man's arm to get him up: "Take Xiao Tuantuan to bed and let her sleep for a while. Do you want to take a rest?"

Chu Dai held his son's butt with his left hand and stood up obediently with her: "Okay, I'll sleep with you for a while."

"What do you mean by accompanying us? Aren't you tired after driving for so long?" Gu Qingqing took his hand and walked upstairs, and the man followed slowly behind her.

Xiao Tuantuan had fallen asleep, and then he opened his eyes hazily. The man bent down and kissed his forehead, and the little guy closed his eyes again.

I don't know how Xiao Niannian fell asleep and rolled to the innermost part, next to the wall. She just lifted the quilt to let the man put Xiao Tuantuan down as well, and the two brothers fell asleep next to each other.

Gu Qingqing found two sets of pajamas from the closet and threw one to the man: "I'm going to the bathroom to change, you change here."

Chu Dai casually picked up the clothes and looked at her with a smile: "You don't have to be so restrained at home, my wife."

Gu Qingqing cleared her throat and said, "The children are here, please be careful."

After saying that, she hurried to the bathroom, as if something was chasing her.

The man took a look, chuckled, slowly took off his coat and hung it on the back of the chair, then began to unbutton his shirt with his slender white fingers.

Gu Qingqing came in after changing her clothes. The man was already lying on the bed, supporting his head with one hand, looking at his two sons who were sleeping beside him.

The curtains were not drawn, and the afternoon sun shone in, half of it reflected on the army green quilt.

Gu Qingqing looked at the warm scene in front of her and her heart softened.

She lifted the quilt and lay down directly on the outside, and the man slept in the middle.

After she burrowed twice in his arms, she heard him say, "Stop moving."

She nestled in his arms obediently, her back facing him, her eyes tilted on the photo on the bedside table.

She reached out and took the wooden frame, looking closely at the person on it.

After a long while, she said, "Tomorrow you can send a telegram to the Construction Corps to ask how my second brother is doing."

"Yeah." The man's thin wrist was placed on her waist, and his wrist bone felt a little uncomfortable.

Gu Qingqing put the photo back and turned to look at him: "Chu Dai."

"Hmm?" Hearing her call his name, the man subconsciously tensed up.

"Didn't I give you food?" Gu Qingqing's eyebrows were twisted into a knot: "Why are you getting thinner and thinner?"

The man was amused: "You've been busy lately. Have you lost weight? No."

"No?" Gu Qingqing reached into his clothes and touched his waistline: "I can't even pinch the flesh."

When she touched the scar, the man's eyes darkened and he leaned over and whispered in her ear, "Do you want to give Tuantuan a brother or sister?"

Gu Qingqing hooked her fingers around the edge of his pants, looked straight at him with her big watery eyes, and then said two words: "No."

Chu Dai was not annoyed. He gently stroked her waist with his big hand as if to comfort her: "Why? Don't you want to have a baby or don't have the energy to take care of it."

"Both." Gu Qingqing nestled in his arms, her fingers moving freely. Above her head was the sound of the man's shallow breathing. She said, "Tuantuan and Niannian are still young, and you are so busy. Asui has to go to school. If it weren't for Goudan on the island before, you wouldn't have known I gave birth."

Fortunately, Gu Qinglie was there that time and carried her all the way to the clinic on the island, otherwise I would not be able to imagine what would have happened.

The man rested his chin on the top of her head, with a guilty look in his eyes: "It's my fault." He rarely accompanied his family, and to be honest, he was not much better than Chu Yuan.

I didn't really want her to have a baby just now, I just wanted to do something I hadn't done for a long time. I didn't expect that this little woman had so many things in her heart.

He kissed her forehead tenderly and held the woman tightly in his arms: "My wife has been wronged."

Gu Qingqing leaned in his arms, listening to the man's strong heartbeat, and felt particularly at ease.

"I don't feel wronged," she said.

In the evening, Shen Sui didn't need to go to the aircrew kitchen. Xiao Xu and Qin Lao's orderly came back with dinner following the two old men.

Xiao Tuantuan and Xiao Niannian were well rested and running around in the living room, sometimes lying on the coffee table, and suddenly lying on the TV cabinet.

When Xue Xu came over, they were having dinner. He had planned to smoke a cigarette outside and wait for them to finish before going in. Gu Qingqing greeted him warmly: "Colonel Xue, have you eaten? Come in and sit down. I'll make you a cup of tea."

He had no choice but to put the unlit cigarette back into the cigarette box and strode into the living room.

Seeing Chu Yuan, he subconsciously stood at attention and saluted: "Hello, Chief."

Chu Yuan was a little surprised to see him coming. Apart from military and political affairs, his family and the Xue family rarely had any intersection.

He waved his hand: "Please sit down as you like. You don't have to be so polite in private."

They are all children from military compounds, only a few years older than his brat, so they have grown up in front of him.

He had also heard the tank army commander Lao Xu praise this kid from Xue Bang's family, saying that he was like his father, capable, not using any backdoor tactics, and was down-to-earth and steady in his approach.

It's rare to see a young person who is not impetuous.

Xue Xu nodded and sat on the sofa.

The two little guys look exactly the same. I didn’t look at them closely before, but the more I look at them now, the more surprised I am.

Tuantuan was not afraid of strangers. Seeing him staring at her, she looked back at him with her big eyes like black grapes.

Xue Xu couldn't help laughing and reached out to touch his little nose.

"He looks a lot like your father when he was a child."

Chu Dai came over with a bowl of rice, and casually sat down beside him with his long legs stretched out. "Don't say this in front of my second brother. He thinks these two little guys are cut from the same mold as him, just like his uncle."

Xue Xu had never seen his second brother-in-law, but he had seen another one: "Does he look a lot like Gu Canyang? Then there's nothing wrong with this statement."

If you look closely, the little guy's eyes and eyebrows look a bit like the ice cube in the Air Force Group.

Chu Dai couldn't help laughing, and stirred the soup and rice in the bowl with a spoon twice, then said, "He does want to." The man lowered his voice and gestured to him to look at the woman who was talking to Old Qin at the table: "My wife looks similar to him."

Xue Xu followed his gaze and saw the woman's eyes were full of light, her face was rosy, and her willow-shaped eyebrows made her look even gentler.

Her appearance is not outstanding, just pretty, and she is much inferior to her older brother.

However, after interacting with Gu Qingqing these two days, I found that her way of dealing with people is very comfortable, like a spring breeze on your face, and I subconsciously feel close to her.

It is difficult to create rejection and hostility.

However, Xue Xu remained silent for a while, then said, "Then your second brother-in-law is quite bold in speaking out."

The man chuckled and noticed someone looking at him, a puzzled look from a woman.

The corners of his lips curved up: "In two months, my second uncle will be here. Don't tell him and my wife that they look alike. It will easily lead to a fight."

"I understand." Xue Xu looked at him feeding the little guy, leaning back on the sofa, and said with some envy: "Your family is quite harmonious." Such a happy family is rare.

Especially since the Chu family holds a high position, no one has ever heard of any trouble happening in the Chu family's courtyard, such as asking the father-in-law and the men to stuff their family members into the military area.

This kind of thing is very common in military compounds. A few days ago, his mother wanted to send her nephew to the army and had a fight with his father.

Xue Bang has a tough temper and sticks to his word, but he doesn't talk much.

When the two of them were arguing, his mother would pinch her waist and point at his nose and curse him, saying that when he was fighting everywhere, it was his eldest brother-in-law who took care of the family and came to visit from time to time, but now he just wanted to join the army to get a sinecure and get an allowance so that he could marry a wife, but his uncle would not agree.

Xue Bang stuffed cotton in his ears and remained unmoved as she scolded him.

It seems that the Chu family also stuffed two people from the Gu family into the cafeteria. Some people also paid attention to this matter. However, because the Gu family members have the ability to meet the requirements for enlistment, they are diligent and hardworking in the cafeteria, never make mistakes in keeping accounts, and help the troops save food costs, everyone from the quartermaster to the cooks likes them very much.

No one brought up this matter.

Seeing Gu Qingqing making Chu Yuan and Qin Zhou laugh at the dinner table, and then thinking about how his own family was having a meal like in Cold War with only the sound of chopsticks hitting the rice bowl, he felt a bit of a headache.

"I remember that you and your father were not very close before." Xue Xu tried to be as tactful as possible.

Chu Dai smiled, "We are not close now. The old man just doesn't embarrass me in public like before for the sake of his daughter-in-law."

Ever since he returned from the island with his wife and son, his father has been smiling more and more, and he smiles more in one day than he has seen in the past twenty years.

Xue Xu nodded: "I heard from my mother that the wife you married is not that great... well, although her two brothers are in the army, one is the commander of an elite company in the Air Force and the other is the battalion commander of a construction corps, but they are not even a little bit inferior to your family." This is also completely treating him as a brother, and speaking in a casual tone: "The most common adjective I hear about my brother's wife is ordinary."

"Aunts often compare you to Bai Rong, saying that you are possessed by evil spirits."

"I haven't seen her before, so I can't make a definitive conclusion."

"What about now?" Chu Dai asked lazily, picking up his son who was sitting on the floor and holding him on his lap. He and the man stuffed their family into the military area.

Chapter 230: Prosperity 230 Previous Chapter Contents Next Chapter  "You are so lucky," Xue Xu subconsciously reached into his trouser pocket for a cigarette, and when he saw the two little guys, he paused, "It's okay to be a little tired in the army, the most important thing is to get along with my family when I go home."

His mother was very fierce and she used all kinds of insults on everyone, from his father to him and his wife, no one could escape her curse.

Especially since his wife didn't give birth to a child, in his mother's eyes, the Xue family's bloodline would be wiped out. She urged him to divorce several times, but seeing that there was no hope, she went to persuade his wife again.

Look, they just had a fight and he came out straight after dinner.

Seeing the harmonious family of Chu, it is inevitable to feel some emotion.

"I don't think she's ordinary." Chu Dai fed his son, who was lying on the armrest of the sofa next to him, a spoonful of rice and soup, and scooped another spoonful for the little guy with his mouth open on his lap: "She has made an indelible contribution to our family's current appearance."

He also thought about what would happen now if he had not become brothers with Gu Qinglie, Goudan had not sent their photos back, and the girl had not been so bold to come to him.

Maybe he is still in the Construction Corps, and will waste his entire life there. Maybe before, now, or in the future, he died in a battle and his body was sent back to the Southern Military Region.

Even if you are lucky enough not to die, you may be lonely for the rest of your life.

It was also rare for Chu Yuan to see each other for several years, and the relationship between father and son was always as far apart as a chasm.

As for Chu Yuan, he also commuted between the headquarters and home every day. He might even live in the headquarters and eat in the cafeteria every day. It seemed that he was almost the same as him, also alone.

Without the descendants around me like today.

There will be interactions between Old Qin and the Chu family, but they will not be as deep as they are now. He may stay on the island or return to the capital. The possibility of him staying in the military district is extremely small.

As for Shen Sui, he was most likely sent back to his grandmother's house.

"What others think is not important," Chu Dai scraped the soup stains on his son's mouth with his fingers, "If it weren't for Gu Qingqing, none of the people you see now would be sitting here."

There was no chance to become a family.

Xue Xu thought for a moment, "Then you have to thank your second uncle."

"Well, I'm very grateful to him," the man laughed, "Every time he said my son looked like him, I never refuted."

"...Haha," Xue Xu couldn't help laughing, took his hands out of his trouser pockets, and leaned against the back of the sofa with a relaxed look, "You are twenty-two this year?"

"Twenty-three." Chu Dai glanced at him and said, "Why, are you jealous of my youth and success?"

"That's enough. After showing off your wife, now you show off yourself. I've never seen you so shameless before."

"I didn't see it often before, I'll get used to it." Chu Dai thought for a moment: "You must be almost thirty."

"..." Xue Xu's smile froze on his face, "Twenty-eight, five years older than you."

"Oh," Chu Dai nodded: "I didn't see that. After all, you have a lot of twists and turns in your mind, like a veteran soldier."

"You're still holding a grudge. I was just trying to trick you. I'm also thinking about Shen Sui's future." At this point, he frowned and said, "I didn't have the nerve to say it in the car. Will he really not go back to visit his father's grave in the future?"

"Yeah." Chu Dai saw that the little guy in his arms couldn't sit still, and his little butt was twisting and turning to get off. He didn't stop him, but put the bowl on the coffee table, took out a candy from his pocket, slowly peeled it and stuffed it into his mouth: "I'll trouble you to help burn incense over there in the future."

Xue Xu wanted to say something, but felt that he had no right to do so.

Shen Sui really didn't owe A Ze anything, and his father didn't spend the little allowance on him.

After a while, he asked, "What does Shen Sui mean by that? He doesn't plan to acknowledge this father anymore?"

"I just want to draw a line with the past. My last name hasn't changed, right?" Chu Dai bit into the candy. "You saw it today. If we hadn't walked quickly, we don't know how the people on both sides would have made trouble."

"You don't seem like someone who would care about these things," Xue Xu looked straight at him, "You should have already thought about how to send the He family to the police station and get back the remaining allowance from A Ze."

"Yes." Chu Dai did not deny it. He put his tongue against the candy and said, "Qingqing didn't want Asui to think about the past anymore. She was afraid that he would be hurt again, so I stopped."

In his eyes, Shen Sui is his brother-in-law and a family member.

There's no need to open his scars again.

Besides, the He family will not have a good life in the future. Aunt He has to take care of two elderly people and several children. There is no strong laborer in the family to work in the fields. It is estimated that the pension of Shen Sui's father has been almost used up.

In his opinion, there are only two possible outcomes.

He's aunt remarried with her sons, or left her sons in the He family and remarried herself.

Such a cruel and selfish person can do anything. Shen Sui's father's pension is still in her hands, and she may still have some disputes with old lady He.

Let's wait and see.

Xue Xu stayed here until ten o'clock, finished his cold tea, and stood up: "I want to go back."

"I'll take you there." Chu Dai nodded.

He didn't refuse.

Gu Qingqing took the two little ones upstairs to watch Shen Sui do his homework. Now Tuantuan is often caught by his uncle every year to accompany him to read ancient Chinese texts.

The two little guys were able to learn a sentence or two, stammeringly.

Tuantuan and Niannian are very smart and know how to find the person who loves them the most - Grandpa.

It was no use for them to act cute and stick to each other. They were taken directly by Chief Chu to a room with a sand table and maps hanging on all four walls. The two little kids burst into tears as they looked at the densely packed place names.

Chu Dai turned a blind eye and Gu Qingqing was happy to be at leisure.

After Xue Xu left, Chu Yuan saw his son return to the living room and said, "Secretary Zhou went to the central government."

The man paused and nodded: "There should be some changes down there as well."

"Your father-in-law is going to be transferred to the commune, but he doesn't want to." Chu Yuan held the enamel cup and blew hot air: "I heard that he is planning to resign."

The Gu family always refreshes his cognition.

If others had connections with their in-laws, they would have already started to take advantage of them, but the Gu family was always cautious for fear of implicating him.

Chu Dai saw through his father's thoughts and sneered, "Don't think too much. Dad didn't want to do it a long time ago. He said that being a production team leader is too tiring. It's not for you."

Chu Yuan glanced coldly at his brat, feeling a little heartbroken.

The man went up the stairs in a good mood, leaving Chu Yuan with a depressed look on his face.

Qin Zhou came out of the study, put his hands behind his back and went to the sofa to watch TV: "Don't make yourself uncomfortable at your age. If you want to get close to A-Dai, just say it directly. Don't be awkward. It's not like you at all."

“Who said I want to get close to him?” Chu Yuan subconsciously denied it, holding the enamel cup and going to the sofa: “After finishing this year, Asui still has two years to graduate. Are you going to take him to the capital to study in high school, and then send him to the Workers, Peasants and Soldiers University?”

Shen Sui was the descendant of a martyr, so it was easy for him to pass the political review at the Workers, Peasants and Soldiers University, not to mention that he was now registered in the Chu family.

Seeing him testing him, Old Qin said gently, "Don't play tricks on me. You must have heard the rumors."

People in their position can know about any disturbances at the top at the first sight.

“Yes,” Chu Yuan stopped playing coy: “I did hear something, saying that the college entrance examination will be resumed in the next two years.”

"It's still in the consideration stage, but it's almost certain." Old Qin smiled elegantly: "That's why I said that Asui has a promising future."

Shen Sui's intelligence and talent will not be limited to one world, and will not let his training go to waste.

Chu Yuan squinted at him and said, "Didn't you say that you would devote yourself to training Tuantuan and Nian Nian? Why did you, the godfather, just walk away and leave me, a rough guy, to teach him?"

Qin Zhou pondered for a moment and asked him, "Have you ever thought about letting Tuantuan go to the capital to study every year?"

Hearing the hidden meaning in his words, Chu Yuan was too lazy to argue with him, "Explain it clearly."

"If Adai wants to move up, he has to go to a military academy for further studies." Old Qin reminded him: "The best military academy is in the capital."

“People’s Liberation Army Political College?” Chu Yuan frowned: “It’s not cancelled…” Before he could finish his words, he came back to his senses: “Are you saying it will be restored along with the college entrance examination?”

"It will be reformed." Since there were no outsiders present, Old Qin did not hide the truth from him: "We are still discussing the rules for this matter, but it's almost done."

"The minimum requirement is regimental rank or above, which Adai just meets, and he may be able to move up a level." The military academy that Mr. Qin was talking about was established to train senior commanders, but it was cancelled in recent years due to some force majeure.

Chu Yuan was deep in thought, holding the enamel cup. Old Qin stood up and went to the TV to turn down the volume without disturbing his thoughts.

Gu Qingqing must have gone with Chu Dai. Once the couple left, the house became empty.

However, Chu Yuan was not thinking about this. As the head of the military region, he would naturally put the future of his juniors first to reach his current position.

What he cares more about is the future education of his two grandsons. If Qin Zhou goes to the capital, it would be best for the two little ones to follow him.

It’s not that he thinks the Nanyang Military Academy is not good, but Qin Zhou is knowledgeable and has unique insights. With his enlightenment, Tuantuan’s achievements in the future will not be lower than his father. As for whether he will surpass himself, Chu Yuan is not sure.

He came from the war years, and now the country is gradually becoming peaceful. It will not be so easy for future guys to make great achievements and climb up.

Thinking of the things his two grandsons were holding when they were celebrating their first birthday, Chu Yuan made up his mind: "Let them go with you."

"It's too early to say anything about this now," Qin Zhou shook his head and smiled, "It hasn't been decided yet, so it's useless for you to make up your mind here. Besides, Asui will graduate in two or three years. Maybe by then you will be retired and can go to the capital with us."

Chu Yuan put down the enamel cup, not without pride: "I would like to retire, but the country needs me, there is nothing I can do."

Qin Zhou chuckled: "Are you trying to say that I'm stepping down as Foreign Minister because I'm old and the country doesn't need me anymore?"

"You said it yourself." Chu Yuan glanced at the TV screen: "Did the Xue family also get wind of something? It was a bit unusual for the Xue family kid to come to see Chu Dai today."

"I'm not sure, but the Xue family kid and Asui's father were comrades from the same military academy. I heard from Qingqing that they met each other when they went to visit the graves yesterday."

"Oh? There is this relationship." Chu Yuan did not ask any more questions, but was a little surprised.

There were not many people in the military region who dared to confront him, and Xue Bang was one of them.

A small-time commander with a bad and stubborn temper.

But he was a very decent person, which he admired.

If there is a problem with a soldier's moral character, he is truly hopeless.

On the third floor, under the warm desk lamp.

Shen Sui has a straight back and his handwriting on his exercise book is clear and elegant.

Gu Qingqing sat next to him and watched, flipping through an annotated foreign language book in her hand.

When Chu Dai pushed the door open, the two little kids on the bed smiled brightly at him at the same time, got up, opened their little hands and walked towards the bed.

"Daddy, hug me~"

The two brothers rushed to the man. The military academy that Mr. Qin was talking about was established to train senior commanders, but it was cancelled due to some irresistible force in recent years.

Chu Yuan was deep in thought, holding the enamel cup. Old Qin stood up and went to the TV to turn down the volume without disturbing his thoughts.
