Shen Ruomei paced around the room twice. A slap was nothing. She couldn't do nothing; otherwise, it would be too easy on him.

We absolutely cannot let them get away with this!

Grandpa is here, so the military will definitely take care of him. They won't have to pay for his accommodation and meals.

My father is an honest and upright man; how could he let the whole family take advantage of him?

Grandpa is so old to come see his injured son, it's understandable that the army takes care of him. He definitely needs someone to take care of him, so let my eldest sister stay.

As for the others, if they want to stay, they'll have to pay for it themselves. They'll have to pay for their own food, lodging, and travel expenses back home.

Shen Ruomei ran to the nurse and asked for paper and pen, quickly scribbling down a few lines. She gave the note to the soldier on guard duty, asking him to find a way to pass it on to Officer Han immediately.

The soldier on guard duty cannot leave his post, but he can certainly get someone to deliver the note.

Han, the clerk, knew some things about Commander Shen's family, but certainly not everything. Only today did he realize how tense their relationship had become.

This means we can't arrange for them to stay at the guesthouse where Song Yan is staying.

Let's change to another guesthouse! It's a little further away, but not too far.

It was the military region's guesthouse, so they would definitely need to see a letter of introduction. Before the waiter had even finished reading their letter of introduction, Officer Han was called out by a soldier.

Looking at the note in her hand, Shen Ruomei wasn't a difficult girl. She was genuinely furious!

Han turned around and asked who was taking care of Old Master Shen.

Shen Lao Er would definitely take on this task without hesitation.

Han, however, shook his head. "Judging from today's situation, neither you nor your daughter are suitable to visit Commander Shen." He immediately assigned Shen Sushuang to take care of the elderly man.

They even asked if it was okay for two people to share a room. There are two beds in one room, which is just right for them.

There's nothing wrong with a grandfather and granddaughter living in the same room.

Han, the clerk, then processed the check-in procedures for the grandfather and grandson.

Shen Lao Er was a little dumbfounded. "Then where are we going to stay?"

Han, the clerk: "If you want to stay here, then you should go through the formalities."

Shen Lao Er: "But...but..." The waiter didn't ask him for money after Han signed the papers. "I don't have much money in my pocket! I was in such a rush when I left!"

Sister-in-law Shen understood what was going on. "I had some money in my pocket!" she said, taking out the money.

Shen Sushuang snatched the money away. "Mom, you don't know how many days you'll be staying here, and you'll need to buy a train ticket back! You have to be careful with this money!"

Shen Sushuang understood perfectly well that Han had only changed his attitude after receiving a note and returning. He wasn't even going to provide accommodation; how could he possibly buy her a train ticket back? He probably wouldn't even provide meals!

When Sister-in-law Shen heard that there was still money for the return ticket, she dared not speak, for the money was really not enough.

Shen Lao Er: "Then what should we do?"

Han, the clerk: "It's alright, I'll lend you the money first! Can you write me an IOU?"

I'll call your company in a bit and have them deduct your salary directly.

When Shen Lao Er heard that the money would be lent to him, a look of joy had just appeared on his face. He thought, "If I lend him the money, Han will keep chasing me for it later!" But the next sentence almost made Shen Lao Er choke on his own saliva.

Shen Sushuang watched all of this in silence.

Sure enough, after a while, Han only gave Shen Ruoshuang and two others meal tickets for the guesthouse canteen.

Officer Han then explained that Shen Ruomei and Wei Aiguo were both received by the military because they were Commander Shen's children. Old Master Shen was Commander Shen's father, so naturally he would take care of them. Others, however, were not treated the same way.

In particular, Commander Shen is a person who is always strict with himself, and he would definitely not allow his family to take advantage of the military.

Han's meaning was that Shen Changchuan's father and children were entertained by the military, but the others were not to be discussed.

Shen Lao Er's face turned green. How much would it cost for the father and daughter's food, lodging, and return train tickets?

Master Shen does have some things, but not money. Even if he did have money, he wouldn't carry it with him.

When Shen Sushuang tried to help him into the house, he didn't say a word, but just sat on the edge of the bed and sighed.

Shen Sushuang: "Grandpa, do you have some old items? If not, my second uncle shouldn't be so interested!"

I've known about Zeng Lao's wealth since I was a child. If you were to give away even a little of your possessions, they would be even less substantial!

But it doesn't matter if there aren't many items. If you put them all together, it's still your way of showing your appreciation, isn't it?

No one's heart is made of iron.

However, if you favor your second son and also want a grandson, it will be a bit difficult!

Who told my second uncle to do such an inhuman thing!

Grandpa, I know my words may be harsh, but they're the truth! If it weren't for the hope that you'd have grandchildren in the future, I certainly wouldn't have said these things to offend you!

Old Master Shen really didn't like hearing this, but there was some truth to it.

Shen Sushuang doesn't talk much usually. Her grandfather always acts like the patriarch of the family, which she actually dislikes.

So she didn't intend to take anything from her grandfather, nor did she try to curry favor with him.

Her mother was an old-fashioned, feudal person, so she didn't say anything.

But last time Grandpa was sick, and Second Uncle broke his leg. When Shen Sushuang returned, she felt something was wrong. Under her repeated questioning, her mother told her everything she knew.

Shen Sushuang truly despised her second uncle's family's character. Although her third uncle never openly gave them any favors, they would never be mistreated at work. No one dared to bully them.

When my second uncle's other two daughters were assigned jobs, why were they both given good positions? Whose influence did the leaders have to give them?
