Then he laughed.
"When did you start swearing? Young lady, don't swear, it affects your image."
Wen Qiao insisted on going with Shen Jichuan to guard the border.
She said, "Are you really so comfortable leaving me in Beicheng? Aren't you afraid Shen Haiyang will secretly harm me? If he hurts the baby in my belly, you'll regret it for the rest of your life."
Shen Jichuan looked at Wen Qiao with a serious and earnest expression.
"Are you sure you want to come with me? When we get to the Northwest, if you want to come back and regret it so much that you cry your eyes out, there will be no one to see you off."
Shen Jichuan said this on purpose to scare her.
Wen Qiao was mentally prepared, and she nodded: "I know, I'll go with you."
"What about your mother?" Shen Jichuan's expression softened as he gently persuaded her, "You and your mother depend on each other for survival. Your mother has now arrived in Beicheng. She needs you very much. If you decide to come with me now, what will happen to your mother?"
Wen Qiao is also thinking about this issue; she is really finding it difficult to make a decision right now.
"I want to explain things to my mom and tell her about my decision."
Wen Qiao wasn't necessarily determined to go to the Northwest with Shen Jichuan; she saw decadence and confusion in him.
He has had a smooth life, from joining the army at a young age to attending military academy and rising through the ranks without encountering any obstacles.
But at the age of forty, he was betrayed by his so-called family members who treated him like air. They had always said that the old house was tied to him, Shen Jichuan, but now, for some petty gains, they were willing to ruin his reputation and destroy him.
It seems that the people in the old house didn't really respect the old man. They only respected him because he was useful to them during his lifetime and gave them status and dignity.
Later, the people in the old house wanted to rely on Shen Jichuan to continue to obtain the status and position they desired. Unfortunately, Shen Jichuan was different from the old man; what the old man was willing to give, Shen Jichuan was not willing to give.
The people in the old house get no benefit from Shen Jichuan, especially since Shen Jichuan got married and had children when he was almost forty years old. In the future, all of Shen Jichuan's glory will not be given to the old house.
The old house is now completely determined to make an enemy of Shen Jichuan, and wants nothing more than to destroy him.
They wish Shen Jichuan would never be able to turn his life around.
Shen Jichuan is not in a position to show off his talents at this stage; he needs to keep a low profile.
If the higher-ups can investigate him, they can certainly investigate others. He now needs to produce something that will be a fatal blow to Yang Hongyu.
Temporarily going to the border to guard the frontier at this stage might not be a bad choice.
Yang Hongyu lowered his guard, giving him time to find evidence to deal with Yang Hongyu.
As for his adopted son Shen Haiyang, he is now a completely useless person to him, and there is no need to keep the path that was paved for him.
Shen Jichuan never stooped to military intrigues or schemes, but Shen Haiyang's actions this time had harmed Wen Qiao, which he could not tolerate.
After comforting Wen Qiao, Shen Jichuan told her to take good care of her pregnancy and discuss it with her mother before deciding whether to go with him to the frontier to guard the border.
At the same time, Shen Jichuan contacted an old comrade-in-arms he hadn't spoken to for many years, and hinted that someone in the army was taking good care of Shen Haiyang.
After learning about Shen Jichuan's situation, Wen Qiao went to see her mother the next day. She found the door open and went inside.
All I could see was my mother, Lü Yazhi, sitting on a small stool in the yard, vigorously scrubbing clothes.
