"Not long after I got married, you wrote to me, saying that you couldn't control your younger sisters and that you regretted putting all the housework on me alone.

I thought you guys really changed!

It's true that a dog can't change its nature! "

"I'm your dad! What are you talking about!"

"You said that a daughter who is married is like spilled water! Now I only care about my husband's future! Well, all of this has been ruined by you as parents! The relationship that was offered to me for flattery, the relationship that could be easily twisted into a dough knot, has been ruined by you!" Mrs. Zhou took a deep breath and said, "Okay, from now on, except for the New Year and festivals, our two families should not contact each other."

Two families...

This really hurt Zhou Xiong's heart. He wanted to clarify himself, but his daughter had already hung up the phone.

Zhou Xiong was feeling a little depressed, so he took a few days off and went back to sleep for a few days.

After learning the content of the eldest daughter's phone call to complain, Mrs. Zhou sighed and said nothing more.

Do they regret it?

I'm sure you'll regret it.

He wanted to find another apprentice, but when others heard that Zhou Jun in front was tricked and taken away, and Wu Guoping was regarded as a benefactor by the couple who didn't know him well, and now he has been demoted, who would dare to come as a child from a good family?

I want to eat the most unique food, so I am very active.

But those people’s calculations are written on their faces. How can the couple agree to this?

Even in the past, it was difficult to find a suitable heir, let alone now.

Now they know the benefits of military children, and they also hear that Zhou Ze'an has a high military rank and Qiao Yu will also be a military doctor with a military rank in the future. So how could the military children's adoptive parents be concerned about the little things in their hands?

When Qiao Yu left the city, he bought three big items for the military kid, using Wu Guoping's compensation. If it were other foster parents...

Anyway, he is not my biological child, so I would have embezzled the money long ago.

There is no doubt that Mr. and Mrs. Qiao have good character.

And then.

Zhou Xiong recently heard guests who came to the state-owned hotel to eat casually saying that the food in the hospital cafeteria was better than that in the state-owned hotel...

He knew he was a military kid.

He had long known that the military kid was talented. He had Wu Guoping as his benefactor, so he deliberately suppressed his talents, fearing that Wu Guoping would feel unfair...

Look at yourself, what have you done?

…

Qiao Yu had a very comfortable winter vacation.

Once a man is in love, he will work as hard as a pile driver without stopping, serving her so comfortably that she hardly ever gets out of bed.

The skin has become more smooth, white with a rosy glow, and looks more healthy. The temperament has also changed a lot.

She used to have a bit of the innocence of a girl, but now she has the charm of a woman. As long as she doesn't open her mouth, she still has that cool image.

Before the New Year, Zhou Ze'an was not on any mission, and Qiao Yu was planning to spend the New Year with him, but a phone call from Beijing disrupted her plans.

The person who called was Zhang Zhan, and he sounded tired.

"Xiao Yu? Please come over during the New Year. Something happened to Grandpa."

Qiao Yu left his four children and the military boy who had run back to the island to celebrate the New Year to Zhou Ze'an and boarded the train to Beijing.

Looking at his mother's back as she left just after he arrived, the soldier would be lying if he said he wasn't disappointed.

As soon as the boat started, Zhou Wu put his arm around his shoulders and said, "Let's go, big brother, go home and make dumplings!"

Zhou Jun turned his head and saw that his father, Zhou Wen, Dawei and Xiaoyong were all staring at him, as if they could sense his low mood for the first time.

The attention of his family members instantly soothed his emotions, and he smiled and said, "Let's go home."

…

Qiao Yu only carried a shoulder bag.

Arrived at the Beijing Military District Compound.

This place was heavily guarded before, and the environment inside was also well-organized, making it particularly safe to live here, with a sense of home.

now?

Even though I didn't see many people along the way, I could still feel the tense atmosphere.

Large-scale unrest in the country did not begin until 1968, with Beijing being the first to be affected. Unexpectedly, it happened three years earlier.

Grandpa's temporary residence is still the same courtyard as before, but Aunt Wang is not there, so it was Zhang Zhan who opened the gate.

"Brother? Where's Aunt Wang?"

"I asked someone to go back a few months ago. I know that my grandfather had the accident not much earlier than you did."

"So, Grandpa has always been the one cooking for himself?"

"Yeah, about right."

"He..." Qiao Yu felt bad when he thought of the hardships his grandfather had suffered before the founding of the country. He choked for a moment, then quickly found his voice and said, "Where will grandpa go? What's the plan? Should we use some strength on my old Zhou too..."

"No need." Zhang Zhan forced a smile as if he had thought of something. "You and Zhou Ze'an have done such a big thing, helping the whole country to be rectified and winning honors. The higher-ups saw that Grandpa was a veteran and sent him to the Party School for ideological education."

Going to the Party school was much better than being sent down to the countryside; at least the material conditions there were much better than in a cowshed in the countryside.

"Isn't it a party school in Jing City?"

Zhang Zhan shook his head, "No, it's the old address. Don't ask, my second brother and I will take care of grandpa, nothing will happen. This time I called you here because of grandpa... I may not see you for a few years, and you are a member of our Zhang family, you have the right to know, so I asked you to come back this time."

"Yeah." Qiao Yu responded heavily.

Walking into the living room, the place was almost empty except for the photo frames on the wall. Zhang Zhan was processing these photos and taking them back to the army to treasure them for later use.

When Qiao Yu went upstairs, he saw Zhang Zhan carefully taking down the photo frames. These photos were all framed, so there was no need to worry about other problems when collecting them, just wipe off the dust from time to time.

Mr. Zhang is in the study.

Dudududu.

"Come in."

Only then did Qiao Yu push the door open and walk in.

My dear, there is more to come after this chapter. Please click on the next page to continue reading. It will be even more exciting later!

The old man is already old. He took good care of himself during the Chinese New Year last year and had only a few white hairs. Now half of his hair is white.

"Grandpa."

"Here you are."

When the old man saw her, he smiled with relief.

But she still saw the weariness of the impermanence of life behind this smile.

In his previous life, Qiao Yu never bowed to anyone, and he was also strong-willed in this life. Only at this moment, when facing the old man, did he feel emotional.

Actually...it's pretty good to be the granddaughter of the Zhang family.

In particular, the old man is a real capable person who has fought bravely on the battlefield and made great contributions to the founding of the motherland.

Such a person still favors her and would rather abandon his own son and daughter-in-law.

She treated ordinary and poor old people with sympathy and tolerance, not to mention her grandfather.

She squatted in front of him and looked up at him, "Grandpa, are you okay?"

Looking at her behavior, the old man seemed to realize something and tears flowed down.

While wiping, he stroked his granddaughter's hair with his other hand.

Obviously, this action should have happened countless times during my granddaughter's childhood.

How long have we been together? We are going to separate again.

"Okay, hello, Grandpa."

Qiao Yu rested her cheek on his legs, hoping to use this intimacy between family members to ease the pain in his heart.

I don't know how much time has passed.

The wind blew the white curtains, bringing a slight chill. The old man sighed and said, "Xiao Yu, I am grateful to you. You and Zhou Ze'an infiltrated the Shunfeng Brigade this time and destroyed the enemy's lair. You changed the situation across the country and made a great contribution. You also eased my situation."
