Chapter 198 First Visit to Compound No. 2



Upon hearing this, Xie Huazhang interjected, "When will Mr. Feng return to China? When they come back, Ling Xiao, let me know, and I'll call Lao Qi and have him arrange for military aircraft to escort Mr. Feng and his entourage back to Beijing."

According to regulations, military aircraft cannot be used casually.

However, special circumstances require special treatment. The two sets of electronic equipment and five sets of medical equipment donated by Mr. Feng alone amounted to tens of millions of US dollars. Moreover, Mr. Feng used their Feng family's ships to transport the equipment back to China.

Add to that the costs of bribing customs officials at various stages, and it adds up to a considerable expense.

Moreover, upon learning that Feng Zhiyi was the granddaughter of Mr. Feng Jiaxiang, Xie Huazhang reviewed the Feng family's records and discovered that in the early years, when the frontline situation was critical and supplies and medicines were scarce, the Feng family donated more than 100 million yuan worth of supplies and medicines.

Furthermore, in the early days of the People's Republic of China, the Feng family took the lead in donating tens of millions of yuan in cash and goods, as well as twenty fighter jets, ten ships, cotton, and a certain amount of grain.

The Feng family was very low-key, which is why it wasn't reported at the time.

Such a great philanthropist should be treated with respect.

Upon hearing this, Old Madam Feng immediately said, "No need, no need. They can just take a civilian plane. There's no need to arrange a special plane. Besides, they'll go straight back to the Feng family in Jiangnan after they land."

By the time the old man and his family return to China, their granddaughter and grandson-in-law will definitely have already gone back to the Jincheng Military Region. Since their granddaughter isn't in Beijing, they certainly won't go there.

Xie Huazhang smiled and said, "Okay, if there's anything you need, just let Ling Xiao tell me and I'll make the arrangements."

Grandma Feng smiled and nodded, politely agreeing.

I felt incredibly comforted.

Although the Feng family doesn't like to be ostentatious, who doesn't want to be remembered for doing good deeds?

Four hours later, the military aircraft landed at the General Military Region's airfield.

The old man had already arranged for a jeep to be waiting at the parking lot.

So, when Lu Lingxiao, Feng Zhiyi, and Grandma Feng stepped out of the cabin, they saw Grandpa Huo's police officer and Lu's father.

Feng Zhiyi helped her grandmother off the plane. As soon as their feet touched the ground, Lu's father strode over. Seeing his son and daughter-in-law return safely, Lu Yunhai's refined face instantly lit up with a happy smile.

"Zhiyi, Lingxiao, you're back!"

Lu Lingxiao and Feng Zhiyi said in unison, "Dad, we're back. We're sorry to have worried you these past few months."

"It's good that you're back safe and sound."

Lu Yunhai spoke cheerfully, in a very good mood, while turning his gaze to Grandma Feng and warmly greeting her, "This must be my in-laws' grandmother, right?"

"Hello, Grandma! Welcome back to China. I am Ling Xiao's father, Lu Yunhai."

Grandma Feng immediately responded with a smile, "I know you because I've been hearing Zhizhi mention you these days. Every time she mentions you, her face is full of happiness. She says that you treat her very well and are very loving and tolerant of her."

"Of course, of course. Although Zhiyi is our daughter-in-law, she is like our own daughter. It is our duty to dote on her," Lu Yunhai laughed heartily.

Then he said to Grandma Feng, "Yaqin has already prepared dinner at home. Come on, Grandma Feng, let's take the car home first, and then we can sit down and have a good chat!"

Grandma Feng responded with a smile.

With her granddaughter's help, she got into the jeep.

After the old lady got into the car, Lu Yunhai turned to Xie Huazhang and asked, "Brother Huazhang, are you coming back to the compound with us, or—?"

Xie Huazhang initially wanted to say no, because he needed to rush to his former leader's house to report on his work, but after thinking about it, he asked, "Are the former leaders home?"

“Yes, everyone is here,” Lu Yunhai replied immediately.

Upon hearing this, Xie Huazhang immediately said, "Then you all get in the car first and wait for me in a few minutes. I'll explain things and then leave."

After saying that, he walked toward his trusted confidant.

Xie Huazhang arrived within two minutes.

Seeing that the back seats were full, he opened the passenger door and got in. After Xiao Zhao waited for Chief Xie to fasten his seatbelt, he drove away from the General Military Region and back to Compound No. 2.

Before I knew it, I had arrived at the front gate of Compound No. 2.

Feng Zhiyi and Lu Lingxiao had been married for a few months, and this was her first official public appearance in the No. 2 compound. As a result, when the jeep drove into the compound and arrived in front of the Lu family villa, it could not move any further.

Looking at the dense crowd, Feng Zhiyi's lips twitched almost imperceptibly.

This scene is very similar to her wedding with Lu Lingxiao.

"Why are there so many people?"

When Grandma Feng saw that the area outside was crowded with people and the car couldn't even get through the villa gate, she frowned, looking puzzled.

"cough--"

Lu Yunhai cleared his throat upon hearing this and then said, "These are all neighbors living in the compound. Everyone is very curious about Zhiyi. Knowing that she is coming back today, they all want to come and join in the fun and see what Ling Xiao's wife looks like."

"Has Zhizhi never been to this compound before?" Old Mrs. Feng grasped the key point.

Feng Zhiyi quickly smiled and said to her, "After Ling Xiao and I got married, I went back to the military base in Jincheng and lived there ever since. I only returned to Beijing before going abroad."

"At that time, there were outsiders living in the Lu family villa, so my parents lived in the old Lu family house. They only moved back later."

"This is probably my first time visiting the compound."

"I see!" Grandma Feng nodded, understanding dawning on her.

The outsider mentioned by the granddaughter must be someone who doesn't get along with Lu Lingxiao's parents, otherwise Lu Lingxiao's parents wouldn't have lived in the old house outside instead of the compound in the first place.

As soon as the car came to a stop, Shen Yaqin jogged over.

The car window was rolled down, and the people inside could be seen directly. Shen Yaqin quickly glanced at her son, then turned her gaze to her daughter-in-law, and said with delight.

"Zhiyi, you're finally back! Where's your mother-in-law? Please invite her out of the car and come inside."

As she spoke, she reached out and opened the car door, leading her beloved daughter-in-law out of the car, followed by Old Madam Feng. When it was Lu Lingxiao's turn, Shen Yaqin decisively turned around.

You're a grown person, you can get down by yourself.

Lu Lingxiao, "..."

Does this differential treatment have to be so obvious?

In his mother's eyes, had he really become a live-in son-in-law?

Lu Yunhai and Xie Huazhang both witnessed this scene. They glanced at Lu Lingxiao with smiles, then opened their car doors and got out.

What could Lu Lingxiao do?

He shrugged and got out of the car.

However, compared to Lu Lingxiao, Feng Zhiyi received significantly more attention.

As soon as I got off the bus, I was surrounded by enthusiastic onlookers from the neighbors in the compound.

She also vaguely sensed a different kind of gaze—
