Judging from the behavior of these people in the group, this person might really be his granddaughter-in-law's sister.

They seem to have a bad relationship. We don't even know what's going on or who he is, yet they're trying to sow discord between us.

Marshal Li was unaware that this was Wei Changgen's family; otherwise, he wouldn't have exchanged a single word with them.

"Comrade, I'm really sorry, this family is universally disliked in our brigade. They go crazy from time to time. Don't believe what she says."

"Su, the educated youth, is doing just fine here. She's just jealous that Su is doing better than her." The brigade leader came over to explain to Marshal Li after seeing Su Nianyou being pulled away.

Seeing Su Nianyou's expression, he knew this person was definitely not a relative of Su Zhiqing, otherwise Su Nianyou would have known.

He kept trying to ruin Su Zhiqing's reputation. He didn't know why he came to see Su Zhiqing, but he was sure he could say good things about Su Zhiqing.

"It's alright, I don't believe her." Marshal Li listened to the man's eager attempt to explain.

After hearing all the good things about the girl, I felt more confident. She was no ordinary girl; she could get the entire brigade to side with her.

As an educated youth from outside the village, she was ostracized by the brigade, so it was normal for them to make things difficult for her.

But the fact that she was able to remove the former brigade leader and still manage to keep the entire brigade from objecting is no small feat.

He had a very good impression of the Su family girl; she was brave and resourceful, quite different from Brother Guo's conservative style.

However, after talking for a long time, the brigade rarely mentioned the child, and Marshal Li did not ask any further questions.

He even felt that the child who could catch that girl's eye must be no ordinary person.

Marshal Li didn't try to get information out of him; he believed that seeing was believing, so he told the battalion commander that he had decided to go to the battalion headquarters to wait for them.

Suti and Wei Baichuan went to two different production brigades today. There hasn't been much work in the fields lately, and they were delayed a lot because of other things that happened some time ago.

She also had to go to the commune every week to give lectures, which was very time-consuming, as she was overwhelmed with so many production brigades.

Fortunately, those above know how hard she works, and the students she trains in the future will be able to help share some of the burden.

By the time they returned to the brigade, it was already past 3 p.m., and everyone was still working in the fields.

Suti and the others were used to it and went straight home.

"Honey, I'll go return the bicycle first." Wei Baichuan washed his hands, intending to return the bicycle first.

It never feels right to borrow something that isn't yours, so the first thing Wei Baichuan does every time he comes back is to return the car.

“Okay, there should be someone at the brigade headquarters. If not, go to the fields and return it to the brigade leader.” Su Ti always gave this same old advice.

It's best to hand it over to the brigade leader or someone who has influence. The bicycle is the treasure of the whole brigade; if it's not handled properly, the people in the brigade will be heartbroken.

She didn't want to leave any room for criticism, so she always reminded Wei Baichuan to be careful.

"I understand." Wei Baichuan said, pushing the cart out, intending to return it early so he could cook for his wife.

His wife said she wanted to eat stir-fried chicken today. They had some pancakes for lunch to tide them over, so his wife must be hungry now.

Wei Baichuan was preoccupied with his own thoughts when he arrived at the brigade headquarters, only to find several strangers guarding the entrance.

He frowned. These men had sharp eyes. They seemed to be standing there casually, but their eyes kept glancing around warily.

He had seen this scene before; when he went to the black market to ship goods, the guards there were just like this.

Wei Baichuan thought about what had happened recently. Could it be that the shipment incident had been exposed? But he hadn't been there for a long time.

The air-raid shelter has been moved to a different location, and nobody recognizes him anymore. But if you walk by the river often enough, you're bound to get your shoes wet eventually. If you really want to investigate, there's no way you can't find him.

Wei Baichuan went through all his options, including how he would arrange things for his wife if he were arrested.

"Wei Lao Er, you're back?" It was the people in the brigade headquarters who saw Wei Baichuan first and hurriedly came over to greet him.

"Okay, I'm here to return the bicycle." Wei Baichuan said, while subtly observing the people behind him.

"They've come at the right time. These people are here to see Su, the educated youth. Take them back." The squad leader on duty at the brigade headquarters, who was calculating work points, was intimidated by the men's imposing manner.

He didn't say anything, but he sat there not daring to breathe.

In just a few hours, he had made countless excuses to go to the toilet, get some fresh air, or get up and move around.

He was really going to cry if they didn't come back soon; the people Su Zhiqing knew were indeed extraordinary.

"Looking for my wife?" Wei Baichuan was taken aback. He went through his wife's family again, but he wasn't sure who these people were.

It's impossible for my grandfather and his family to do this. Now is the time for them to keep a low profile, and they wouldn't find us like this.

Thinking back to when I called him a few days ago, his wife said that my grandfather was being hesitant. Could it be that someone had attacked my grandfather and his family?

Are they planning to take advantage of their grandfather's numerous distractions and start by targeting him?

Wei Baichuan thought about many things, but he didn't notice until the old Marshal Li inside heard the noise and came out.

"Comrade, this is Su Zhiqing's husband. They're back." The squad leader hurried over when he saw Marshal Li come out.

Marshal Li looked at the child in front of him and his body trembled. He looked so much like him, so much like his son-in-law.

But there's still a hint of his features in his eyes and brows. His daughter's eyes are just like his, and he also has that cold, icy look in his eyes, just like the Li family.

Even with just one glance, Marshal Li recognized him immediately. He had never experienced that irresistible urge to get close to Qi Bowen before.

"Um... I, I'm from Beijing." Marshal Li was so excited he couldn't speak. He stood in front of Wei Baichuan and stared at him intently.

Wei Baichuan was shocked for a moment when he heard the words "Beijing City", but he quickly realized that this must be an investigation team sent by Beijing City.

They arrived quickly, which means they still care about him, their bloodline who has been separated from his family for generations. That makes things easier.

"Okay, come with me." Wei Baichuan nodded expressionlessly.

They returned the bicycle first, and then led Marshal Li back. It was the first time the grandfather and grandson had met, and both were extremely silent.

However, the atmosphere between the two was surprisingly harmonious, which surprised the guards following behind.

Even those who knew the old marshal dared not look him in the eye, let alone strangers.

Even his own grandson, every time he sees him, he acts like a mouse seeing a cat. Who is this person? How come he doesn't show any fear at all?

And the way the old marshal looked at him—they had never seen the old marshal like that before.

People who have survived countless battles don't even blink when digging out ammunition.

If they weren't blind, the old marshal's eyes actually reddened at that moment.
