"Dad, Mom, I haven't been able to go home to visit you two for three years. The whole family needs your help. As your son-in-law, I feel very ashamed. This little gift is nothing. It is just the filial piety of Xiaohong and me."

With just a few words, Zhang Xiangnan made the old couple smile happily.

Zhang Shuguang secretly curled his lips. His father was stationed in southern Xinjiang. Could he be doing political work?

"Xiaohong, this braid is the latest fashion in the department store. It will look great on you.

The heels of these small leather shoes are not too high, so you can wear them at home everyday.

This is a Shanghai brand watch. I bought it specifically for ladies to wear. It will be convenient for you to tell the time when you wear it.

This is vanishing cream, ranunculus oil, osmanthus oil, and Pechoin moisturizing cream. The salesperson said they are all things women like, so I bought some of them.

In order to compensate his wife and win back her heart, Zhang Xiangnan put in a lot of effort and money.

The salesperson also said that the effects of Snow Cream and Pechoin overlap, but Zhang Xiangnan didn't care. As long as it was something women could use and available in the department store, he would buy it.

"Mom, the bragi skirt is beautiful. Panpan also has a bragi skirt."

The little girl was also very happy to see that the big bad guy bought so many gifts for her mother.

"Zhang Xiangnan, why are you spending this much money? I'm either at home taking care of the kids or working in the fields. How can I afford to wear such nice clothes?

And this watch, how much did you buy it for? Can you return it? You returned it this afternoon.

If you want to know the time, you don't need a watch. You can just look up at the sun and tell."

Su Hong was used to being frugal and couldn't stand Zhang Xiangnan spending money so lavishly. Even though the money was spent on herself, Su Hong still felt heartbroken.

"Mom, if he buys it for you, just keep it. He can't save his allowance if you don't spend it anyway. Buying things for you is better than giving money to Zhang Xiangdong's family!"

Zhang Shuguang's few light words instantly changed Su Hong's mind.

"My eldest son is right. Even if I spend all my money, I can't keep it to feed an ungrateful person."

Su Hong happily accepted all the gifts.

"If Xiaoguang hadn't mentioned it, I wouldn't have remembered it. Zhang Xiangdong's family sent all the money they owed me over the years. It's a total of 360 yuan. You can keep it.

Also, this is all my allowances for the past three years, a total of four thousand five hundred. You can keep all the money, I won’t keep a single cent.

Xiaoguang is not young anymore, and Xiaoli is growing up day by day, so it’s time to build a house for him.”

Zhang Xiangnan took out a thick bundle of money from his bag and placed it in front of Su Hong.

"You should keep this money. It's too much. I can't sleep well with it."

At that time, the largest denomination was ten yuan, and more than four thousand eight hundred yuan placed there was still quite impactful.

"Oh my God! We have more than ten laborers in our family, and we only got less than 200 yuan last year. How many years will it take us to earn this much money?"

The fourth brother, Su Zhenjiang, swallowed hard.

"Our brother-in-law is the battalion commander, and he manages hundreds of people, more than the people in our village."

"Little sister, just take it if I give it to you. Even if you can't sleep, you have to take it. You will get used to it slowly."

"My hard times are finally over. With so much money, I can't even finish it all even if I buy food on the black market every day."

"Brother-in-law, didn't you make another contribution this time? Can your allowance still be increased?"

…

The younger generations stared at the money, not daring to say anything, while several brothers and sisters-in-law started talking at once.

"Don't be envious, this is all earned by your brother-in-law at the cost of his life.

He has been a soldier for more than ten years and has experienced countless life-and-death crises.

There are fewer battles now, and he was transferred to the southern border with the army. He can only spend a few days at home throughout the year. It's not easy!"

Xiangnan, you finally came back, come have a drink with Dad today."

Su Chaoxing spoke and ended the topic.

Afterwards, the adults toasted each other and tacitly did not mention the matter between Zhang Xiangnan and his wife.

There was no conflict between the two of them. It was just because it was difficult to be both loyal and filial. Su Hong was indeed wronged, and it would be better for her to vent her anger.

Since ancient times, it has been difficult to balance career and family at the same time, which is a problem that many professions cannot solve.

It was a rare opportunity for the women and children to encounter such delicious food, and they ate it with their mouths drooling.

Maybe it was because of his military service, Zhang Xiangnan could drink surprisingly much.

The four uncles took turns to toast, and Zhang Xiangnan accepted all of them and drank as soon as he raised his glass. He also took his father-in-law into consideration and clinked glasses with him from time to time.

After drinking half of a box of Moutai, several daughters-in-law grimaced in pain, but they didn't dare to say anything because their parents-in-law were present.

Fortunately, Su Hong had no worries and took the initiative to ask her brothers to exchange the wine, leaving a few bottles of Moutai for the old lady to keep.

"The wine brewed by Dad is still the best."

Zhang Xiangnan took a mouthful of sweet potato chips, and it was like swallowing a fireball, burning directly from his mouth to his stomach.

After changing the wine, the four uncles quickly lost their temper and even spoke with a lisp.

It was definitely impossible for his grandson to go to work, so Su Chaoxing arranged for his grandson to go to the team leader's house to ask for leave.

"Mom, my brother should go to school. Why don't we go back together? Dad's guards are still at our house."

In the morning, Zhang Shuguang said that if he wanted his father to carry his mother back personally, it was just because he wanted to support her as a son, and he would not really embarrass his father.

"Go back. Your in-laws haven't seen their son for more than three years. Who knows how much they must miss him.

You've cried and made a fuss, Xiangnan has apologized and made all the promises he should have made. If you don't go back, you're being naive."
