The jeep arrived home quickly.

Hearing the sound of a car outside, the eldest child and the others ran into the yard.

As soon as Zhao Qinglan and the others came in, the children rushed over excitedly.

Holding the fastest-running second child and Xiaoduo in her arms, and looking at the eldest child and the third child standing behind her, Zhao Qinglan smiled.

"Don't worry, Mom is fine now."

Seeing the children rushing into their wives' arms while ignoring their father, Li Huai felt a pang of sadness.

However, when he saw his eldest son, he still praised him, saying, "Well done, keep it up."

The older child grinned.

Cheng Tao looked at the family gathered together and felt an indescribable envy.

His parents were good to him, but he felt they had never been so close to him.

Once inside, Zhao Qinglan realized why Secretary Cheng's arrival was so timely.

"Cheng Tao, thank you so much, you've been a great help to Auntie." If Secretary Cheng hadn't arrived at the perfect time, even if that arrogant brother-in-law had eventually learned his lesson, the process would have been much more complicated.

Cheng Tao thought his father hadn't taken it seriously and that his efforts were in vain, but to his surprise, his father brought people to his rescue as soon as he was kicked out. Now, being sincerely thanked by Zhao Qinglan, he was both excited and shy.

"Aunt Zhao, yes, it's my duty."

Seeing that he was starting to stutter, Erwa laughed without giving him any face, and then everyone laughed.

Li Huai understood that Secretary Cheng's arrival had been a great help, so he was very grateful to Cheng Tao and even more satisfied with his eldest son.

Perhaps because he has won his father's favor, the eldest child has been full of energy all day.

Zhao Qinglan naturally wouldn't tell the children about the infighting that happened in the Public Security Bureau; she only said that there was no need to worry about it anymore.

She never imagined that the children would be able to brainstorm and find help when they learned about the trouble at her shop. These children really made her feel gratified.

Sun Shengli and his group first took Sister Wen back to the military-civilian joint store, dropped her off, and then drove to Li Huai's house.

After sending the children off to play, the adults began to discuss what had happened that day.

Zhao Qinglan also shared the conclusions she and her husband had previously speculated upon.

"Let's see how Secretary Cheng handles things first. That guy, I wanted to punch him when I saw him. What a piece of trash."

Although some members of the group were unhappy that Zhao Qinglan's new store wasn't registered under the group's name, Sun Shengli was still very open-minded.

He knew very well that the military-civilian partnership was profitable entirely because of Zhao Qinglan's management. Otherwise, it wouldn't matter where they were affiliated. They were already doing quite well, as they could still receive some dividends from the head office every month to improve the conditions in the group.

One should be content with what one has and find happiness in it.

However, since the Junminhe New Store was being targeted and sabotaged, he was naturally afraid that the main store would be affected if it were to fall. This was why he insisted on bringing people over to help immediately.

Since Sun Shengli and his group had finally come to visit, and Zhou Jingsheng, a family member, was also there, Zhao Qinglan quickly cooked a meal to treat everyone to a good meal at his house.

The children had just grabbed a quick bite when they were hungry before, but now that they have something delicious to eat, they are all over the place.

Sun Shengli also inquired about Zhao Qinglan's relationship with Secretary Cheng and learned that the child who was always walking with Da Wa was Secretary Cheng's only son, which made him quite emotional.

Who would have thought that the friends children make could be so helpful to adults?

The eldest brother and his siblings were all outstanding, and Sun Shengli felt that Zhao Qinglan deserved a lot of credit. Of course, his own children were also excellent, and the parents began to discuss their own children.

Sun Shengli already knew that his wife planned to go to the new store that Zhao Qinglan was preparing in the provincial capital. It was impossible for him to be completely reluctant to let her go. However, their daughter and eldest son were both in the provincial capital, and the two children would most likely stay there in the future. It was not bad for his wife to go there now, so that she could establish herself as soon as possible and take care of the children.

He's thinking that once he retires, he'll go to the provincial capital to live with his wife and children.

After finishing their meal, Sun Shengli and the others hurried back. Li Huai brought his orderly over, but he had also taken leave at the last minute. He couldn't stay any longer, so he could only tell his wife to tell him when there was a result on that matter, and not to hide any difficulties she encountered.

The couple lingered for a while before Li Huai got into his car and left.

Seeing how affectionate the two of them were, Erwa made a lot of noise in the room for a while, and was even hit on the head by Dawa, who was disgusted by him.

After everyone left, Zhao Qinglan relaxed and went to rest; she was quite tired after all the hustle and bustle of the day.

Little did she know that she had become the little butterfly that stirred up a hurricane. Secretary Cheng used her case to uncover the illegal activities of his brother-in-law, which also triggered a crackdown across the entire region.

After gathering everyone, Secretary Cheng held a three-hour meeting. By the time the meeting ended, countless people were cursing the troublemaking brother-in-law and his deputy director brother-in-law in their hearts.

These two people will definitely not have a good ending.

After a good night's rest at home, Zhao Qinglan went to the shop early the next morning.

Everyone in the store was delighted to see her.

After Sister Wen came back yesterday, she talked a lot about Zhao Qinglan's heroic deeds, and everyone admired her very much.

Perhaps to reassure people, she didn't leave immediately after arriving, but stayed in the shop for quite a while until someone came looking for her.

Whether it was at Secretary Cheng's behest or not, the police chief personally led a group to the store to apologize, clarify the situation for Junminhe, and inform Zhao Qinglan of the outcome of the case against her brother-in-law.

They will be punished together once their other crimes are fully investigated. As for the outcome of the case against the deputy director who has connections, that will need to be discussed at a meeting at higher levels, and there won't be a result so soon.
