Chapter 240 Qian Xing has a problem
240
Qian Xing looked up at Tang Shengkai, then at Second Uncle Xu. Seeing Second Uncle Xu nod, he gritted his teeth. "My father told me to go to South Island to find you. If you were really persecuted by the spies, let me find a way to avenge you."
If I can still find you, I'll be allowed to serve in the South Island as a soldier, to hone my skills and avoid being like him in the future, where I confessed everything under duress by the spies."
After hearing this, Tang Yue smiled, but she didn't say anything.
Tang Shengkai felt like he understood what Uncle Qian meant. But he still didn't quite get it. "Hey, Uncle Qian, you're really overthinking it. Xingzi, South Island is really far away. The conditions aren't as good as ours."
Qian Xing nodded, "Third brother, it's okay. I can hold on."
Tang Shengkai felt a little guilty. He thought that he had to talk to their battalion commander about Qian Xing joining the army. It just so happened that he had made some meritorious service this time, so it shouldn't be difficult to agree to let one person join the army.
"Okay then. When I get back to South Island, I'll ask for you. It shouldn't be a problem."
Tang Yue's lips curled up slightly. She didn't know who owed whom. Never mind. After all, they owed someone a favor, and it was time to repay. If they had no other intentions, she wouldn't mind introducing them.
"Uncle, it's getting late. Let's go out for dinner first. You can have a good rest when you come back. You must have taken a long ride from Shencheng, right? You must be tired."
After having dinner together, Tang Shengkai and Tang Yue sent the three people to the guesthouse. They left them money and tickets and left first.
"Daughter, what do you think?"
Tang Yue was surprised. She didn't expect her father to think so much. Tang Yue laughed, "Haha, Dad, I don't know either. Let's take it one step at a time."
Tang Shengkai held Tang Yue's hand and walked towards the army, his eyes looking ahead, "Hey, at that time your Grandpa Qian said that he wanted Qian Xing to go with us, but for some reason, they didn't let Qian Xing go in the end.
We were in such a difficult situation back then, and we didn't know what would happen in the future. I didn't have the nerve to ask your grandfather Qian Xing if he was willing to follow us.
But now, it suddenly came to me, regardless of whether it was a new year or a festival.
Can't you think about it, Dad?"
Tang Yue shook Tang Shengkai's hand, "Dad, if there's any problem, it will be exposed sooner or later. Since he wants to join the army, then let him join. It's safer to keep a close eye on him."
Tang Shengkai was in a bad mood. "Your Grandpa Xu, hey, he's been a barefoot doctor all his life. If anything really happened, it would really be your father and I who are implicated. My daughter, let's keep a close eye on them. If they don't make any big mistakes, we should help them as much as we can."
Tang Yue walked forward and nodded.
In fact, it is not difficult. As long as the source is solved, they will no longer have a source of threat, and naturally there will be no mistakes.
Tang Yue knew clearly that if it weren't for their family, ordinary people like them would probably never have been involved with spies in their lives. Since it was their fault, they would definitely take the blame.
As the two of them walked to the military gate, they saw a familiar figure standing outside the military gate. Tang Yue let go of Tang Shengkai's hand and ran over, "Sister Lai, are you here to see me?"
Tang Yue was delighted. She had just met Lai Xiang the day before. When she returned home that evening, she remembered the package she had received. She pulled the letter out of her space and read it. It turned out that Sister Lai had sent her the bicycle, sewing machine, and electric fan she had been looking for.
Tang Yue was delighted. Sister Lai truly cared about her. However, she accepted the gift, but she definitely couldn't let Sister Lai pay for it. She was still thinking about visiting Sister Lai again someday. She gave her the money and the ticket.
I didn't expect to run into her today. "Xiao Yueyue! What a coincidence! You're out? I thought I couldn't find you."
"Yeah, this shows that Sister Lai and I are destined to be together. Sister Lai, how did you know I was here?"
Tang Yue suddenly remembered that she hadn't mentioned which unit she was in when they were chatting yesterday. How did Sister Lai find her here so quickly?
Lai Xiang had a hunch that her uncle was hiding something from her, but he was also anxiously urging her to come find Tang Yue. Lai Xiang was not tired of hearing this, so she decided to come over and take a look. She planned to just ask the security guard a few questions and then leave.
But I unexpectedly ran into Xiao Yueyue at the door. "Xiao Yueyue, my uncle said that my aunt and cousin didn't say hello to you yesterday. You sent a lot of delicious food to our family last time, and they wanted to thank you.
I'd like to invite you to my home for a simple meal. I'd like to ask you when you are free."
Lai Xiang didn't show any emotion when he said this, as if he was repeating what someone said, and there was no happy look on his face.
Tang Yue calmed down and asked, "Sister Lai, are you living at your aunt's house?"
Tang Yue looked at Lai Xiang's dress and thought she was from a wealthy family.
Lai Xiang smiled and took Tang Yue's hand. "Well, my parents are both in Northeast China. My mom thought it was too dry and cold, and she didn't want me to suffer there, so she sent me to my aunt's house when I was very young."
"Oh. Sister Lai, is it your aunt who wants to treat me to a meal, or your uncle?"
Lai Xiang looked around and pulled Tang Yue aside. His expression became more serious, "Xiao Yueyue, I'm going to tell you the truth. My uncle rarely talks to me and doesn't care much about family matters.
After hearing your name yesterday, I felt that he seemed to be very interested in you. Xiao Yueyue, did you do anything in the army?
"Is your uncle in the army?"
"Yes, he was the division commander. But I don't know which division he was from. They never told me that, and I never asked."
Tang Yue thought back to her conversation with Chang Yin last night. It seemed her guess was correct. Many people must be targeting her. But what was their purpose?
"Sister Lai, I'm in the army here now. I have a battalion commander over me. I need to go back and ask him if he can give me a vacation. I was out all day yesterday, and when I came back in the evening, he scolded me.
I wasn't supposed to go out today, but due to some special circumstances, I went out."
Lai Xiang understood what Tang Yue meant. "I'm fine, Xiao Yueyue. To be honest, Xiao Yueyue, I don't really like them treating you to dinner. It's not that I don't want to have you over. It's just that it's not my home."
Tang Yue smiled. Her feeling was right. When she saw Lai Xiang for the first time, she thought she was a good girl. She had good taste.
"Yes, Sister Lai, I understand. I think your uncle urged you to come here today, right? He also gave you the address."
After hearing what Tang Yue said, Lai Xiang felt that her uncle was up to something. No, she couldn't do anything that would harm Xiao Yueyue.
"Xiao Yueyue, just pretend I wasn't here today. I don't want you to eat this meal. You don't have to worry about me. I'm going to find a house to move out in the next two days."
Tang Yue's eyes turned cold, "Did they bully you?"
Lai Xiang smiled and said, "Not really, but it's not my own home after all. I'm grown up now and I want to live alone. It's more convenient."
Tang Yue was a little worried. After all, Sister Lai was just a little girl. What if she really ran into some bad guy? Suddenly, she had an idea, "Sister Lai, do you have a partner?"
Lai Xiang......
Are you urging such a young child to get married?
"No. I still..."
"Sister Lai, how about I introduce you to someone?"
Tang Yue was a little excited. It just so happened that their battalion commander didn't have a partner, and Sister Lai was a good match for Chang Yin in every way. If Sister Lai married Chang Yin, she could go to South Island with the army. There would be no need to worry about her safety.
Chang Yin seems to be a reliable guy and should be good to Sister Lai.
Lai Xiang looked at Tang Yue's rolling eyes and knew that this little girl was not thinking about anything serious. She reached out and tapped Tang Yue's forehead. "Little girl, what are you thinking about? I'm not looking for a partner for the time being."
"Huh? Why?"
"Little girl, how old are you? Don't meddle in adult matters. Anyway, Xiao Yueyue, you directly refused me and refused to go to my aunt's house for dinner. Do you understand?"
Tang Yue was about to say something when she saw a military vehicle parked not far from them.
