They managed to stop him the first couple of times, but under the cover of darkness, Song Laosan secretly slipped away. It turned out he had climbed up a high branch and clung to a big tree.
Chu Zhuo continued his story.
Guan Yuqin brought Song Laosan to Wuzhou, saying that he was an ambitious man she met on the way who wanted to join the army. General Guan accepted Song Laosan as a soldier. The two secretly fell in love in the army. A year later, Song Laosan mentioned the marriage to General Guan. General Guan was naturally unwilling to marry his daughter to an ordinary soldier. He was furious, forbade them from seeing each other, expelled Song Laosan from the army camp, and imprisoned Guan Yuqin.
Song Laosan wouldn't let it go so easily. He secretly sneaked into the place where Guan Yuqin was confined and got her pregnant. He used this underhanded method to get General Guan's approval.
General Guan had no choice but to promote Song Laosan to a junior officer, and then to a senior officer. He arranged a marriage for them in the military camp, but he had one condition: Song Laosan had to marry into the family.
Ten years have passed in the blink of an eye. Now, Song Laosan and Guan Yuqin's two children are seven and four years old, the older one is a son and the younger one is a daughter. A year ago, General Guan was promoted to regional commander and also promoted Song Laosan to captain.
"How did General Guan end up here?" Qiao Laosan asked.
Chu Zhuo said, "Song Laosan wanted to return to his hometown in glory and asked to be transferred back more than once. He even persuaded Guan Yuqin. Guan Yuqin made a big fuss. General Guan loved his daughter, so he had to ask his superiors to station him here to guard the border. He brought all his troops with him, which caused a lot of problems. The soldiers were too far from home and were full of resentment. They all had a lot of opinions about Song Laosan."
"As for me, I came here for training, and I brought five hundred men with me. These five hundred men are my elite guards and vanguard. The rest of my men were transferred from the Guan Ning Iron Cavalry camp."
After saying so much in one breath, Chu Zhuo felt thirsty and took a sip of wine.
It turns out that Song Laosan used so many tricks to rise to power.
So, he must have been looked down upon in the military, and it seems his life wasn't easy.
Perhaps this is one of the reasons why Song Laosan is busy establishing his authority.
"You inhuman bastard! Not only did you betray Yunni, but you also deceived General Guan's daughter!" Old Qiao cursed.
"If we appoint someone like that as a captain, he will never protect the country; he will only think about how to scheme against and harm others."
Qiao Lian'er said, "Since Song Laosan concealed the fact that he had been married, he certainly wouldn't want General Guan to find out that he has two more children."
She knew why Song Laosan still wanted to kill her even though he knew she was his daughter; there must have been this reason in mind.
“So you have to be careful,” Chu Zhuo said. “He will definitely keep this a secret, for fear that General Guan will get angry and ruin his future. He might even take other actions.”
Today, Song Laosan is going to kill Qiao Lian'er without even blinking.
Qiao Lao Er snorted: "Our Lian'er doesn't care to acknowledge him as his father. We've long considered him dead. As long as he doesn't come to us to do evil or use those vicious tricks, we'll keep to ourselves."
"Yes, he dared to come after Lian'er and target the Qiao family. Our Qiao family's fists have no eyes. Just like today, we beat him until he couldn't find his way back."
“Now that you are my subordinates and have become soldiers, Song Laosan can’t openly target you. I’m afraid he’ll resort to underhanded tricks to find fault with you. Just be careful in the meantime,” Chu Zhuo said.
"Don't worry, with my brother Chu Zhuo around, he won't let Song Laosan run wild," Shi Murou said with a smile.
Because he had other things to do, Chu Zhuo drank two glasses of wine and hurriedly ate a bowl of rice before leaving, and Shi Murou also took her leave.
After the land was expropriated, sobs and cries could be heard from time to time in Datian Village, and a desolate atmosphere permeated the area.
Song Ruier secretly followed Song Laosan to the neighboring village. His father had returned, and he wanted to go and acknowledge him.
