Chapter 343: Alert
Lin Anan held Gao Cheng in her arms and coaxed him softly, while also comforting Aunt Chu, and silently led the two of them out of the room.
She could already see the soldiers outside.
Lawyer Zhu saw through Lin Anan's actions at a glance, "Comrade, what are you doing? Where are you taking the child? You are breaking the law, do you know that?"
Lin Anan ignored him and whispered something to her aunt, asking her to take the child and go out quickly.
"Comrade Zhou, think about it again. Xiao Cheng has lived here for so many years. He has his own friends, teachers, and his beloved grandmother. He lives very happily here. Although the material conditions may not be as good as your current family, his spiritual world is rich.
He is not an object and should not be forced for no reason! I believe that if my second uncle is still alive, he would not want his child and mother to be treated like this. "Lin Anan's words struck Zhou Yuzhen's heart word by word.
After saying that, she quickly left the room.
Several soldiers filed in.
Just leave the follow-up matters to Minister Qin.
The military district has military laws and will not do anything to them easily, but it will not allow them to bully the martyrs, young and old, in this way.
Besides, there are Chu Mingzhou and Lin Anan here. They are also soldiers and it is impossible for them to treat their family members like this.
Zhou Yuzhen was anxious as she watched Lin Anan leave with Aunt Chu and Gao Cheng. She had been married to the Gao family for many years and naturally knew the importance of the Gao family in the army. She also knew that the Chu family would not ignore it, so she wanted to quickly move her child's household registration and leave immediately.
Just a little bit more...
Obviously just one more day would be enough!
Four soldiers stood behind Minister Qin, obviously intending to take people away.
"Comrade Zhou, and the two lawyers, please come with us."
The man who had been silent the whole time spoke up, "Why should we go with you? To put it bluntly, this is just a private matter between them. What do you mean by this...bullying..."
Before the man could finish his words, a soldier quickly pinned him down like a monkey and said, "Stop talking nonsense."
The ordinary lawyers were not able to resist the strength of the soldier, so they just let him scream and yell and took him away.
Lawyer Zhu was extremely anxious. "Brother San, don't resist. Don't say anything. They do have the right to ask us to cooperate. If this matter is not handled properly, we may end up in the military court."
"Why didn't you say so earlier?"
"I didn't know they were from the military district!"
The man called "Third Brother" showed a look of annoyance on his face after hearing what Lawyer Zhu said, but he still shut up obediently.
Zhou Yuzhen bit her lips and her face gradually turned pale.
She knew very well that she might not be able to take Gao Cheng away as she wished this time...
Minister Qin saw that they were willing to cooperate, so he kindly reminded them, "We don't mean to embarrass you, but this matter involves the rights and interests of the martyrs' families. We have the responsibility to ensure that everything is properly handled. We hope you can cooperate with us."
Zhou Yuzhen lost her previous arrogance and nodded, "I...I understand. I am willing to cooperate."
Afterwards, Zhou Yuzhen and the other two followed Minister Qin out of the room and went to the relevant department of the military region.
On the other side, Aunt Chu was holding Gao Cheng and watched Zhou Yuzhen being taken away. Her mouth opened and her eyes became red again.
Lin Anan had been with them the whole time, coaxing them while talking about her next plan, "Aunt, please come back with me to the military compound first. Minister Qin will arrange the follow-up matters, and they should also be transferred to our troops for processing."
"An'an, this... Yuzhen can't be in trouble, right?"
After all, they are mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. Although there are some shortcomings, in the eyes of Aunt Chu, Zhou Yuzhen is a good daughter-in-law and also a miserable child.
"Grandma, people change. Your most important thing now is to take good care of Xiao Cheng and not let anyone hurt him, including his mother."
Aunt Chu nodded, "Yes, An An, you are right."
It is true that Aunt Chu is nostalgic and soft-hearted, but she is not stupid.
Thinking back on Zhou Yuzhen's behavior over the past few days, I felt more fear than disappointment.
"Grandma, do I not have to leave you anymore?" Gao Cheng raised his head and asked with anticipation in his eyes.
Aunt Chu's eyes were filled with tears. She gently stroked Gao Cheng's head and said, "Good boy, no, grandma won't let you leave."
Lin Anan also whispered to comfort him: "Xiao Cheng, don't worry. With grandma and sister-in-law here, you will stay here well."
Lin Anan planned to take a bus back immediately.
"We are running out of time. The last bus only goes to Huai'an Town, and we can only take the bus back tomorrow morning."
Lin Anan was afraid that something might happen if she was too late. She and her group were all elderly, weak, women and children. What if Zhou Yuzhen had a backup plan?
Finally, Lin Anan gritted her teeth and took Aunt Chu and Gao Cheng directly to the relevant military department of Beitian County.
Minister Qin is busy and cannot come out to meet us.
Lin Anan immediately took out her translator certificate and asked the military district to protect her and escort her back to the Northwest Military Region compound.
The conditions were somewhat rude, but fortunately she was a translator in the intelligence analysis department and had a special status.
Her behavior was a bit of an exaggeration, but thanks to her caution, the three of them returned to the military compound that night, and were escorted the entire way by two soldiers driving a military vehicle.
In a place unknown to the few people, there were five people sitting in the car that brought Zhou Yuzhen back.
They had originally planned to take Gao Cheng away tonight, but if someone caused trouble, they were not afraid to use some tricks.
When I got home, it was almost nine o'clock in the evening.
"Brother Cheng~"
Chu Mingyu was hungry late at night and was sitting in the living room eating a midnight snack. When he saw Gao Cheng coming, he was extremely happy.
The child didn't remember anything. Gao Cheng was still crying, but he smiled when he saw Chu Mingyu. The two chatted for a few words and forgot all the pain.
Lin's mother brought him a bowl of cooked rice cake and he started eating immediately.
"Why...you're back so soon?" asked Lin's mother.
Lin Anan shook her head. "Nothing. I just came back after finishing my work."
Before Aunt Chu could say anything else, Lin Anan said she was hungry and wanted to have some midnight snack as well.
She had only had breakfast the whole day, eating half a steamed bun while on the bus. She was so hungry that she was starving.
"Hey, I'll cook it for you right away. It'll be ready soon."
After all, Aunt Chu is old and has a lot on her mind. She is worried that Zhou Yuzhen will be treated badly, but she is also glad that Gao Cheng can stay with her.
"Aunt, you can just live here peacefully for the time being. Don't worry about your aunt's affairs, the army will take care of everything."
"Yes, An'an, thank you for your hard work."
"No, it's not hard."
After having supper, Lin Anan washed up and went back to her room.
Only when she lay down on the kang did her heart finally settle down.
She was just going to pick up a child and fight for custody, but the inexplicable sense of crisis kept her on edge.
"I always feel that the whole thing is weird..."
