On a highway outside Beijing, a military off-road vehicle sped along, and in the back seat, a man was dozing with his eyes closed.

His brow was slightly furrowed, as if he was still worried about something.

He had a lot of clothes and gifts that girls like these days in the trunk, but he still felt that something was missing.

"Mingxu, have you finished collecting information on the Deng family?"

"Yes, Chief, would you like to see it now? I brought it all with me!"

Jiang Yanshu shook his head.

"Summarize the situation and tell me about it."

"Yes, according to the intelligence, Mr. Deng Yunbo and his wife Ms. Yang Xueqin are currently undergoing labor reform in the Qianjin Brigade."

This Forward Brigade is very close to the Progressive Brigade where Miss is located. It is inferred that Miss must have had contact with the Deng family elders.

As for Mr. Deng's eldest son, Deng Yongchang, and his wife, Shen Feiyao, they were sent down to the Hope Farm for reform.

Deng Yongchang's two sons were sent to the Water Buffalo Brigade under Yancheng, Shanxi Province, to work as educated youth because of their family background.

Mr. Deng's youngest son, Deng Yonghao, along with his wife Zhao Mengyuan and two other sons, are currently participating in a tree-planting activity in the northwestern desert.

"Has that girl contacted those people?"

Zhou Mingxu shook his head.

"Communication conditions are poor in both the farm and the Northwest, not to mention their special status."

There had been no contact with Elder Deng's side, so naturally, Miss had never had any dealings with them.

Jiang Yanshu nodded. He didn't like his daughter's attention being diverted by so many people. Since they hadn't been in contact yet, he figured there wasn't much of a relationship between them.

After he reunites with his daughter, he will have plenty of time to spend with her. At that time, in his daughter's heart, he, as her father, will surely hold the most important place.

Before he could even formally acknowledge Jiang Xile as his daughter, Jiang Yanshu had already planned it out countless times in his mind.

Having experienced so much hardship and setbacks, Jiang Yanshu thought she would live a lonely and miserable life until her death.

Unexpectedly, he ended up with a biological daughter halfway through his life, which made him extremely happy.

Therefore, Jiang Yanshu already has an extraordinary possessiveness towards this daughter he has not yet met.

He will give his daughter everything without reservation, cherish her, love her, and take care of her.

At the same time, he also hopes that his daughter can give him enough response so that he can feel the warmth of his relatives and the happiness of his family again.

"Once we reach the next county, we'll contact Guangjun and settle down in Tiancheng to rest before heading to the Progress Brigade!"

"Yes, Director, please take a rest. Zhiyong and I will take turns driving!"

"I can't sleep either. Let's take turns. Safety first. If you're tired, just take a nap. Don't worry about me!"

“You didn’t get a good night’s rest last night. It will take at least ten hours to get to Sweet City. Your body can’t take it if you stay up like this.”

“I know what I'm doing. You should take a nap first. If it really doesn't work, we can find a place to stay for the night after we cross Shanhaiguan. I've already waited this long, so a couple more days won't make a difference.”

Although Jiang Yanshu said this, Zhou Mingxu and Xiao Zhiyong knew how anxious he was. If it weren't for the emergency mission last time, the director would have taken the young lady home long ago.

"Director, please rest. Zhiyong and I are fine, don't worry!"

Unable to refuse Zhou Mingxu, Jiang Yanshu had no choice but to agree, leaning back in the back seat and closing her eyes to rest.

Jiang Xile, who was waiting to receive her share of meat in the Progressive Brigade, had no idea that her biological father was on his way to reunite with her!

When Li Delong led the group down the mountain to the village, it was already dark. He sent someone to call the accountant, and after locking the game in the storeroom, they all went home to rest.

After a night's rest, everyone gathered at the threshing ground the next day, full of energy. Looking at the game piled up like a small mountain, everyone's face was filled with joy.

After praising the winter fishing team, Li Tiejun also gave special commendation to Jiang Xile.

In addition to the promised three jin of meat reward for each member of the winter fishing team, the injured members also received an extra two jin of bones to take home and make soup.

Jiang Xile received an extra two jin of meat as a reward for her outstanding performance. Combined with the three jin she had received before, she got a total of five jin, which made everyone very envious.

Even if they were envious, no one dared to go up and cause trouble, after all, Jiang Xile's contributions were undeniable!

After the meat distribution was over, Li Tiejun led everyone to busy themselves with cleaning up the grain, as it was time to hand over the public grain, which also meant calculating work points.

Although she had only been there for six months, Jiang Xile hadn't missed a single day of work, so she should be able to get a good share of the grain.

It was at this moment that a conspicuous military vehicle drove into the Progressive Brigade. Because of the previous example of Xiao Chengyi, Li Tiejun was not too flustered.

I never expected that the person who came this time would be looking for Jiang Xile!

Li Tiejun took the group back to his home and sent someone to the educated youth settlement to find Jiang Xile.

Jiang Xile was a little confused when the brigade leader summoned her for no reason. She had been a bit lazy lately and hadn't gone out to cause trouble!

As soon as Jiang Xile entered the captain's house, she saw the man sitting at the head of the table. He had the air of a leader and was wearing a military uniform. If you ignored the scars on his face, he didn't look so ferocious.

She was certain that she didn't know the other person, but the way he looked at her was clearly different from how he looked at others.

Jiang Xile frowned slightly at this feeling. She should have been disgusted, but for some reason, she couldn't bring herself to hate this man.

Jiang Xile shifted her attention away from the man and turned to Li Tiejun beside her, asking:

"Captain, you wanted to see me?"

Li Tiejun smiled awkwardly. He felt a lot of pressure as a lowly official in front of this high-ranking leader!

“Jiang Zhiqing, it’s not me looking for you, it’s this leader. He’s looking for you. There’s something else going on at the brigade headquarters. You two chat first, I’ll go take a look!”

Li Tiejun's intuition told him that this was not something he should get involved in, so it was better to stay away.

Seeing Li Tiejun leave, Jiang Yanshu nodded to Zhou Mingxu, who then left the room with Xiao Zhiyong.

Now only Jiang Xile and Jiang Yanshu are left in the house. Facing her biological daughter, Jiang Yanshu is very nervous. Although she doesn't show it on her face, her palms are already sweating profusely.

Jiang Xile frowned, looking at the other person with confusion. She wondered who this person was and what they wanted. Why weren't they saying anything? What did it mean by staring at her like that?

"If the enemy doesn't move, I won't move either," Jiang Xile stared intently at Jiang Yanshu.

Even the usually calm and shrewd Jiang Yanshu couldn't really control his own daughter.

"Ahem... Let me introduce myself, I'm Jiang Yanshu! I don't know if you've heard of me before."

Jiang Yanshu stared intently at Jiang Xile, not wanting to miss any of her expressions.

Upon hearing the name Jiang Yanshu, Jiang Xile immediately recalled the letter left by the original owner's mother. Good heavens, it seems the original owner's biological father has come knocking on the door!
