After dinner, Tao Jiadong and his family sat at the table chatting.

"Jiadong, is there still no news about that child?" Aunt Tao asked.

During the day today, Zhou Jin called, and Aunt Tao answered the phone.

Zhou Jin was ill, and her voice was somewhat weak.

Aunt Tao was feeling bad.

They were all of the grandparents' generation, so Grandma Tao could understand Zhou Jin's feelings.

The older I get, the more I miss my children.

Moreover, Zhou Jin's son and daughter-in-law have both passed away, and Zhou Jin's family only has one grandson left.

Previously, Zhou Jin thought her child was dead, and even though she had many thoughts of him, she kept them all to herself.

Now, knowing full well that her child is still alive but still hasn't been found, one can only imagine the torment Zhou Jin is experiencing.

"Mom, I'm still asking the village leaders to help me compile the data, it won't be that quick," Tao Jiadong sighed.

Tao Jiadong was also anxious.

In order to find Zhou Jin's missing grandson, Tao Jiadong and his family have been traveling around for the past few years.

Previously, Tao Jiadong didn't think it mattered.

However, it was only when Aunt Tao nearly died of anger that Tao Jiadong realized his mother was getting old and her health was declining.

Tao Jiadong also wanted to find the child as soon as possible.

Unfortunately, not long after Tao Jiadong arrived in Taohua Town, the town mayor, Hu Yong, got into trouble.

Currently, the position of town mayor is vacant, and all the work has fallen on Tao Jiadong's shoulders.

Tao Jiadong was too busy with work to have much time to look for people. As a result, several days had passed without any news.

"Mom, Jiadong, don't worry, I have a feeling things will turn around soon," Wang Jing said confidently.

Two patients in a row were poisoned by a unique poison that the spy Tan Shaoan had once used.

Wang Jing felt that the time to catch the spy shouldn't be too far off.

"Xiaojing, you're so much better than Jiadong, who just knows how to annoy me." Aunt Tao looked at her daughter-in-law, her face crinkling with laughter.

Tao Jiadong was furious but dared not speak out.

If he dares to contradict his mother in front of her, he'll definitely face a "double attack" from his mother and wife.

"Mom, Xiaojing, I'm going to work overtime." Tao Jiadong hurriedly stood up and said.

"Go on, go on! The sooner we find the person, the sooner we can be at ease." Aunt Tao waved her hand, signaling her son to leave quickly.

Anyway, I've gotten used to it over the past few years.

Tao Jiadong works a full twelve or thirteen hours a day.

As soon as Tao Jiadong stepped out the door, he ran into Zhao Zhenzhu and Zhou Bingchen.

"Uncle Tao, are you going out?" Zhao Zhenzhu asked.

"Yeah, I was just about to go to work and work overtime," Tao Jiadong said.

"Uncle Tao, could I trouble you for a few minutes? We need to talk to you about something," Zhao Zhenzhu asked.

"Okay, come in!" Tao Jiadong turned and went into the house.

Zhao Zhenzhu rarely visits, but since she has something to ask, Tao Jiadong will definitely give her that much face.

“Uncle Tao, this is something that Bingchen and I found by chance in Zhoujia Village. We felt something was wrong, so we came to find you as soon as possible…” Zhao Zhenzhu said as she took out a jar from her basket and placed it in front of Tao Jiadong.

Urged on by Zhao Zhenzhu, Zhou Bingchen added a few words.

These statements were prepared in advance by Zhao Zhenzhu and Zhou Bingchen.

Zhao Zhenzhu wanted to pin the credit for discovering the spy on Zhou Bingchen.

Zhao Zhenzhu said that after Zhou Bingchen returned home, he noticed that something was wrong with his family, so he asked Zhao Zhenzhu to keep an eye on them as well.

That night, Zhou Bingchen followed Zhou Bingqiang out the door.

Zhao Zhenzhu said that Zhou Bingchen suspected Zhou Bingqiang of doing bad things outside and deliberately followed him.

Zhao Zhenzhu did this because she didn't want Zhou Bingchen to be implicated by Zhou Fugui.

In this day and age, if one person commits a crime, the whole family suffers.

Not to mention that Zhou Fugui was guilty of espionage.

Even if Zhou Bingchen is Zhou Fugui's adopted son, he will still be implicated by Zhou Fugui, unless he makes a significant contribution to the case.

Zhou Bingchen loved his job. If he had to take off his military uniform because of Zhou Fugui, he would definitely feel remorseful for the rest of his life.

At first, Zhou Bingchen was unwilling to take credit for Zhao Zhenzhu's work.

Zhao Zhenzhu tried to persuade Zhou Bingchen, saying that as a peasant woman, such credit was useless to her. They were husband and wife, so it made no difference whether Zhou Bingchen or Zhao Zhenzhu took the credit.

Seeing that Zhou Bingchen still disagreed, Zhao Zhenzhu angrily said she wanted a divorce, and Zhou Bingchen reluctantly agreed.

After listening to what Zhao Zhenzhu and her husband said, Tao Jiadong took the case very seriously.

"Comrade Zhou Bingchen, thank you and your wife for your trust in me. I promise to handle this matter as quickly as possible. After it's done, I will recommend you to our superiors for commendation." Tao Jiadong extended his hand and shook hands with Zhou Bingchen, speaking solemnly.

Tao Jiadong admired Zhou Bingchen for not being tempted by so much wealth, and even more so for putting national righteousness above family ties.

It's easy to talk about putting righteousness before family, but very difficult to do.

If Zhou Fugui really is a spy, Zhou Bingchen's military career may be over.

After all, with a spy father, Zhou Bingchen certainly couldn't stay in the army.

Tao Jiadong rushed back to his workplace to hold a meeting and arrange work.

Zhao Zhenzhu and Zhou Bingchen stayed at the Tao family's house and did not leave.

After Tao Jiadong left, Zhou Bingchen quickly asked Wang Jing to help Zhao Zhenzhu take her pulse.

Zhou Bingchen breathed a sigh of relief when Wang Jing said that Zhao Zhenzhu was not poisoned.

"Pearl, you have good taste in men. Just like your mother," Wang Jing teased.

“Aunt Wang has a better eye,” Zhao Zhenzhu retorted.

“Yes, yes, I have good taste too. Jia Dong is a good person, but he’s so focused on his work that he doesn’t take care of his family,” Wang Jing said with a smile.

"Xiaojing, you've worked so hard these past few years. You had to go to work, take care of the children, and look after this old woman like me. If it weren't for you helping me take care of my health, I definitely wouldn't be alive today." Grandma Tao said with a face full of gratitude.

"Mom, look at what you're saying, this is all I should do! You treat me even better than you treat Jiadong!" Wang Jing smiled.

"Grandma Tao, Aunt Wang, you two don't need to be so modest. In this world, there are very few mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law who can get along like a real mother and daughter. You two are just destined to be together," Zhao Zhenzhu said with a smile.

"It's true, Xiaojing and I are really destined for each other. The first time I saw Xiaojing, I felt that she should be my daughter-in-law." Grandma Tao laughed heartily as she recalled the past.

After chatting and laughing for a while, Zhao Zhenzhu said, "Grandma Tao, I have something I'd like to ask you for help with today. Do you know what kind of markings Uncle Tao is looking for? My son Bingchen isn't actually his parents' biological child; he has two red moles on his chest..."

"How old is your son Bingchen this year?" Grandma Tao asked hurriedly.

“Thirty,” Zhao Zhenzhu said. “Before, I didn’t know Bingchen said he was adopted, so when you guys talked about looking for someone last time, I didn’t think much of it. I only found out these last two days.”

"Bingchen, may I see your chest?" Grandma Tao's eyes lit up.
