"Uncle Yun, what is your relationship with my dad?"
Song Nanfeng couldn't wait to know. He and his father had a deep relationship and similar personalities. They would chat often. He knew most of his father's friends, but he had never heard his father mention Uncle Yun.
Li Shutong came out with the last bowl of soup. She didn't know that Song Nanfeng had set his sights on her daughter the moment he arrived. When she heard his question, she was slightly surprised: "Shao Fan, isn't Xiao Song Han Zheng's comrade-in-arms? Do you also know his elders? Whose child is he?"
"His father, Song Haihang, and I have known each other since childhood. We were classmates in elementary and junior high school, brothers who grew up together. Before the Yun family left Kyoto, they were neighbors with the Song family. After they moved to Jing County, Song Haihang and I also exchanged letters, until we lost contact after we moved to the farm."
"So that's how it is."
Li Shutong usually didn't ask too much about his personal affairs, respecting his social life. She greeted Song Nanfeng with a smile, "Xiao Song, we just arrived in Jinling. It's really a coincidence that we can see you at home."
"Uncle Yun, Auntie, I didn't know that Uncle Yun and my father were close friends. I came here so abruptly and didn't prepare any decent gifts. I'm really sorry." Song Nanfeng thought that he must have not left a good impression on Uncle Yun before, so he hurriedly apologized.
"Xiao Song, it's too polite to say that. Our situation is special now. I think Han Zheng has also told you about our family situation. We have to live here for a while. If you come to Jinling in the future, remember to come and visit often." Li Shutong said politely with a smile, completely unaware of the strange expressions of the other people in the family.
Song Nanfeng was very happy and nodded repeatedly: "Okay, okay, I will definitely come often."
"Have a meal."
Yun Shaofan had a stern face and a heavy tone.
Li Shutong knew her husband very well and could clearly hear the change in his voice. He was obviously unhappy. What happened?
Facing the question in her eyes, Yun Shaofan didn't explain and softened his tone to her, "Everyone is hungry, let's eat first."
"good."
Li Shutong was confused, but smartly didn't ask on the spot. She planned to find an opportunity to ask after the meal, and then warmly invited the two guests, Song Nanfeng and Han Zheng, to eat.
There is no rule in their family about not talking while eating or sleeping. Song Nanfeng is much more eloquent than Han Zheng. In addition, with the friendship between the elders, he immediately opened up and became familiar with each other.
Song Nanfeng first talked about his parents' current jobs, as well as his brothers and sisters' marriages and families, and subtly revealed his own family situation.
"So what unit do you work in now?"
Yun Shaofan was listening carefully. He was happy for his brother's promotion. He also knew what Song Nanfeng was thinking, so he took the initiative to ask.
"My dad originally wanted me to follow him, but I wasn't interested. When I was sixteen or seventeen, my second uncle tricked me into following him to try out for the special forces. I accidentally got selected, and then I started following my second uncle."
"I spent six years in the army, facing life and death every day, with my head always on the line. I actually enjoyed this job, but my parents and grandparents were constantly worried, afraid that I would lose my life one day."
"I happened to be injured moderately during a mission in the first half of the year. I stayed at home for a month, and my family elders had a serious talk with me about my future career plans."
"After much consideration, my grandfather recommended a new unit to me. The nature of the work was similar to my previous one, but it was far less dangerous. After learning more about it, I agreed to retire. After my injury healed, I went to work at the Ministry of State Security."
Yun Shaofan listened and nodded, "It's a good unit."
Seeing that the children of his childhood playmates were doing well and had bright career prospects, while his three children were persecuted for no reason and could not even complete their normal studies, and his niece was also implicated and could not even choose her marriage as she wished, Yun Shaofan felt as painful as if a blunt knife was cutting his heart.
However, he did not show it in front of his children. He picked up his small wine glass and clinked it with Song Nanfeng, saying, "Write me your home address later, and also help me take a letter to your father."
"Okay." Song Nanfeng responded.
They drank and talked, and Yun Chaoyan remained silent the whole time, eating with her head down. After finishing her meal, she put down her bowl and chopsticks and sat beside them, listening quietly to them talk.
"Chaoyan, is this all you want to eat?" Although Song Nanfeng was talking to his elder, he often glanced at her.
Yun Chaoyan couldn't handle his familiarity and said awkwardly, "We're not familiar with each other."
"There's a saying that goes, 'The first time is strange, the second time is familiar.' This is my second time seeing you, aren't we familiar with each other yet?"
Song Nanfeng looked at her with a smile in his eyes. He could see that this little girl was very shy and simple, like a piece of white paper without a speck of dust. To deal with such a simple and innocent girl, the most effective trick was to be shameless.
Yun Chaoyan looked at him with strange eyes. This man must be mentally unstable. "How can this be the second time? Didn't we just meet today?"
"We've met twice today."
Song Nanfeng was very happy to see that she was willing to talk to him.
Han Zheng brought over another bowl of rice. Seeing that he was using such a childish trick to talk to Yun Chaoyan, he directly used a shadowless kick on him.
"hiss!"
Song Nanfeng was caught off guard and got kicked on the instep. He grimaced in pain and said, "Han Zheng, you kicked me three times today. Are you itching for me to practice with you?"
"Can you beat me?" Han Zheng gave him a provocative look.
Song Nanfeng was grinding his teeth. The two of them were a typical example of "where there is Yu, why not Liang?" Before Han Zheng joined their special forces team, he was the king of the team. Since Han Zheng came, he became the second in command for a thousand years and never made a comeback until he retired.
