There are quite a few people serving in the army these days, and even more family members visiting them.
"Auntie, you are going too far. Soldiers are there to defend their country and have broad minds. How could they be like your son?"
"That's right. I don't believe that all soldiers are like this."
"Auntie, you have a problem with your character, so don't drag others into it."
"That's right. You're disgracing all the soldiers by doing this."
The old woman was speechless and angry: "How can I defile others? My son is a soldier, defending our country. What's wrong with her being a little girl giving in to my grandson?
It’s not like I don’t give her money, but she is so stingy at such a young age, she is really heartless.”
A middle-aged man said, "What the little girl said is absolutely right, ma'am, since your son is a soldier, it means he is a patriotic young man with ambition and courage.
But our duty as soldiers is to protect the people and the country, and we will not use our status to oppress the people."
He originally didn't want to get involved in these things, it was just a quarrel between everyone.
But he didn't expect that this girl would be so sharp-tongued. If he didn't stop her, she would probably say something even more outrageous.
Looking at the little girl in front of him, Zhang Jiujiang's face was full of displeasure. She was too competitive.
The old woman was startled. Thinking of her son's previous statement and what the man said, she asked suspiciously, "My nephew, are you also a soldier?"
The middle-aged man nodded.
The old woman's heart trembled suddenly. Could it be that he was in the same place as his son? "I am going to the Magic City to visit my son. Nephew, you are not going there too, are you?"
The middle-aged man nodded.
The old woman's heart sank instantly. What if her fuss today really had an impact on her son?
Her son is now the squad leader and he finally has the chance to run for platoon leader. He won’t lose it because of her.
But the little kid still refused to give in and kept crying.
The old woman came over immediately and kicked her grandson on the buttocks in anger: "Shut up right now, look at other children as old as you who are still crying all the time.
Cry, cry, cry, have you cried for my lateness?" The old woman said and glanced at Zhang Jiujiang.
"Big boss, children don't understand things, please don't take it to heart," the old woman pleaded.
Zhang Jiujiang didn't understand why the old woman suddenly changed her attitude. Seeing her timid and heartbreaking appearance, he quickly said, "Auntie, I don't care about anything.
Sit down and take a rest. Adjust your mindset and remember that your son is on the front line defending the country. You must not hold him back."
Zhang Jiujiang glanced at Xu Ying after he finished speaking and said, "The old lady didn't do anything wrong. Don't hold on to her."
Xu Ying was speechless. It was clearly the old woman who was holding on to her, and now she was blaming her.
Uncle Xu stood up and wanted to fight, but Xu Ying held him back: "If a dog bites you, do you want to bite it back?"
Zhang Jiujiang's face turned pale and he looked at Xu Ying with extreme disgust.
"I don't like to make enemies with others, but I'm not a pushover. It would be better if you don't bully me, but if you think I'm easy to bully, I'm not someone you can easily bully.
Uncle San, let's eat." Xu Ying closed her eyes and continued to rest. Maybe it was because her nose was too sensitive, but she always felt that the smell in the car was unpleasant.
Uncle Xu looked at Zhang Jiujiang being humiliated, sneered, and felt much better.
Qiao Yuzhu's heart trembled again. Fortunately, she did not offend Xu Ying to death. This girl was too scary and had a very sharp tongue. No one could get anything good from her.
The little kid, who had been crying non-stop, saw his grandmother getting angry and realized that crying was no use, so he behaved himself all the way to the Magic City.
"Don't worry about this, Auntie. You have to discipline your grandson well, or he won't be able to find a wife in the future." Xu Ying said sarcastically.
The old lady was so angry that she was out of breath. Oh my god, she was so unlucky today. The damn girl deserved to die.
"Minister Xu, where are we going now? Where are we going to hold the food tasting event?" Qiao Yuzhu is older and more submissive, after all. She no longer cares about what happened before.
Qiao Yuzhu still doesn't really support this food tasting activity. She feels that it is just a waste of time. So what's the use of letting everyone taste the food?
By then we will still have to rely on department stores.
After all, he is young and thinks whatever he wants.
"Let's find a place to stay first. There are many major factories in Shanghai near the train station. We have to start the food tasting event here."
"Here?" Everyone was shocked: "Minister Xu, shouldn't we cooperate with the department store this time?"
Xu Ying shook her head in a mysterious manner.
She wants to take the department store into her pocket this time, but the Friendship Building in Shanghai is her final choice.
If they can sell their products in the Friendship Building, why would they worry that the department store will not do business with them?
The Friendship Building is near the train station, so she would hold the food tasting event there.
"The department store does need cooperation, but the Friendship Building is also pretty good." When Xu Ying said this, everyone was shocked as if they had seen a ghost.
Third Uncle Xu was almost choked to death by his spit. He glanced at his niece and couldn't help but said, "Yingying, Third Uncle knows what you are capable of.
But you can’t just go into the Friendship Building whenever you want. They only entertain foreign guests and won’t let Chinese people in at all.”
"So let's start the activity nearby." Xu Ying said with a smile.
Qian Yuanyuan sneered. She thought Xu Ying was so smart, but she didn't expect him to be just a country bumpkin.
Although she had never been to Shanghai, she still had some knowledge about the Friendship Building in Shanghai.
The Friendship Building is heavily guarded to ensure the safety of these foreign guests and that they are not disturbed.
Xu Ying's idea of holding a food tasting event here is simply a pipe dream. She is waiting for Xu Ying to slap herself in the face.
The factory director had high hopes for Xu Ying in this event. If she messed up, not only would the factory director punish Xu Ying, but Zhou Yi would definitely change his impression of her.
After all, she is a girl who has never seen the world, so pitiful.
Qiao Yuzhu also looked unhappy: "Minister Xu, you are not allowed to set up food tastings near the Friendship Building. There are people guarding the door."
Xu Ying nodded: "I didn't say to put it in front of the Friendship Building.
There is no factory around here that can’t do that.”
Seeing his niece like this, Uncle Xu must have made up his mind, so he didn't interfere too much and took everyone to find a place to live nearby.
The people who came were paired in one room, and when it was Xu Ying, Qian Yuanyuan, and Qiao Yuzhu's turn, no one wanted to share a room with Xu Ying.
Xu Yingle is so comfortable. It must be so nice to have a room of her own.
So Qian Yuanyuan and Qiao Yuzhu lived in the same room.
