He was looking around the house just now, and his expression was very strange.

Zhou Chunmei just didn't understand. Wasn't it good to see her childhood friend doing well?

After Zhou Chunmei noticed Zhao Jixue's strange expression, she lost all goodwill towards him and became even more wary than before.

Li Xue also looked at Liu Xiaohua curiously, waiting for her answer.

Su Luo and Dai Ping'an also came out.

Dai Pingan carried Su Tiantian to the front door for a stroll.

Su Luo sat down next to Zhou Chunmei. Before Liu Xiaohua could answer, Su Luo spoke up: "Mom, it's best if eldest brother and second brother don't go. Zhao Jixue is not a good person. That's what Grandpa said. He said that his face is distorted and he looks like someone who is easily angered and jealous. Such a person is petty and jealous. It's not suitable to befriend him."

When Zhao Jixue came over, Dai Ping'an glanced at him through the window of the main room and then asked her to come over and have her face read.

Traditional Chinese medicine emphasizes observation, listening, questioning, and palpation. With Dai Ping'an's guidance, Su Luo was able to discern some of these signs. Since it concerned her family, Dai Ping'an asked her to come out and talk to them.

"Ah Luo, I also noticed something was off about this person. Now that the old man said so, there's no doubt about it—he's not a good person!"

After Zhou Chunmei finished speaking, she took a bite of the pear.

Liu Xiaohua sighed and said, "Zhao Jixue was close to your older brothers when he was young. He was smart and had a lot of ideas, but he went astray and hasn't come back for ten years. I don't know what he's doing outside. He's changed. You can't trust him. Even if you don't see that he has bad intentions, you can't listen to him."

“He’s grown up, and so have his older brother and Chengguo. They’ve all gone down different paths and no longer have anything in common. They used to play together when they were kids, but now they can’t. Any ideas he comes up with are in vain. He can only waste the money on the fruit and the money he spent on treating Chengguo and the others to dinner.”

Zhou Chunmei said with a smile that she knew her own man well. Su Chengguo valued her and the child the most, so he would never be schemed against by Zhao Jixue.

"My sister-in-law is right."

Li Xue couldn't help but smile. The vague worries in her heart dissipated at this moment, and she felt that Zhao Jixue was not a big deal after all.

Watching Zhou Chunmei eat the pear without a care in the world, Liu Xiaohua smiled and said, "You're right."

The second daughter-in-law and the second son are truly a perfect match; they can always find a way to relieve their stress.

"These pears are quite sweet. I'll soak them in the well so they'll taste even better when Dad and the others come back."

Seeing that everyone approved, Zhou Chunmei felt even more at ease. There was nothing to worry about, so she simply got up and put the pears into the well.

"Mom, I'm going out to see Grandpa now."

Su Luo was relieved and got up to go out to find Dai Ping'an.

Su Luo went outside and saw Dai Ping'an holding Su Tiantian and playing with her.

"Grandpa, I've already talked to Mom, so there's no need to worry about this."

Now that she's finished eating the pear, she can continue studying.

Dai Ping'an looked at Su Luo and, remembering her clumsiness in recognizing characters, said, "Let's go then. I'll take you to the army base to report for duty. The literacy classes there are more formal."

When asked about Dai Changsheng's efforts to find a teacher for Su Luo yesterday, Dai Changsheng said that the military literacy classes were more formal, and he had already spoken to Xing Yuan, so Su Luo could be taken there to register at any time.

The sooner you learn, the sooner you'll master it. Let's start today.

There were plenty of men in the army, so they could also teach Su Luo how to read people's faces and judge their character.

"Ah... thank you, Grandpa!"

Su Luo was surprised and quickly thanked her.

The military is not a place for just anyone. Grandpa Dai Ping'an really went to great lengths for her. Su Luo was filled with gratitude and didn't know how to repay the old man.

"No need to thank me. Just study hard and make sure you master it. You're still young and have a bright future ahead of you. Keep your sights set on the future and go far and high. When you have the ability, help others as much as you can."

Dai Ping'an looked at Su Luo and said earnestly.

Su Luo's nose tingled, and she choked out, "Grandpa, is it that you... remembered?"

Su Luo couldn't utter those last few words; she could only look at Grandpa Dai Ping'an through teary eyes.

When did the old man regain his senses? He stopped treating her as Dai Xiaoyu, but he was still willing to teach her?

Seeing Su Luo's tears, Dai Ping'an reached out and wiped them away, saying kindly, "Let's go. Grandpa is very lucky to have met you. Your talent is no less than Xiao Yu's. Study hard. Grandpa doesn't have many years left. You must memorize all the skills in these last few years."

Being confused isn't painful, but it's not the best time.

No one should be anyone's substitute.

Su Luo nodded with tears in her eyes; she would definitely study hard.

Dai Ping'an looked down at Su Tiantian in his arms and smiled kindly. His Xiaoyu had not been able to get married and have children. If she had, the baby would probably be just as clever and cute.

Dai Ping'an brought Su Luo to the military base. They were stopped and questioned at the guard post. After Dai Ping'an explained the situation, they were allowed to pass.

Dai Pingan led Su Luo inside.

Upon arriving at the literacy class, Dai Ping'an escorted Su Luo inside to register.

Su Luo started learning directly from pinyin. Dai Ping'an was outside in the corridor. Looking down, he saw Su Tiantian yawning incessantly. Dai Ping'an couldn't help but laugh and said, "You little brat, did you inherit your mother's badness at learning?"

That would be very bad.

I feel sleepy as soon as the teacher starts lecturing; how am I supposed to get into university like this?

Su Tiantian smiled shyly.

She was so sleepy listening to the teacher talking in 'aoe' that everyone was convinced she wouldn't do well in her studies and that she would surprise them later.

Knowledge will enter the brain in a different way. She's so sweet and charming; she's bound to be a super academic achiever.

Xing Yuan took some time to come over and greet Dai Ping'an.

"Sir, please tell me what you need. I've already given instructions."

Xing Yuan said solemnly.

Dai Ping'an glanced at him and then said, "Your arms are getting tired from holding the baby, why don't you hold her and play with her for a while?"

Dai Ping'an had long noticed that Xing Yuan had feelings for Su Luo; otherwise, he wouldn't have been so attentive, willing to be a guinea pig for Su Luo to practice on, and going to great lengths to get Su Luo to attend this literacy class in the army.

He's a man of discernment; he'll give opportunities when they're due, and whether or not Xing Yuan can seize them is up to him.

"OK."

Xing Yuan immediately agreed, feeling extremely nervous.

"Ah~"

Don't be nervous, Uncle with the glittering gold, I'm very well-behaved.

Su Tiantian gave Xing Yuan a bright smile. She was overjoyed to finally be able to go to other places to play.

"Let's carry her around a bit; we still have plenty of time before the three classes are over."

Dai Pingan waved his hand, signaling Xing Yuan to take it away.

A man who can take good care of a baby is qualified. If you have the will, you should put in the effort.

If you can't even take care of this little kid, then you should give up on this idea as soon as possible.

Xing Yuan nodded and carefully carried Su Tiantian to watch the soldiers train. He didn't know if Su Tiantian would like it, but the army had the most training.
