"Furthermore, my A-Che has never been engaged to anyone, so don't spread rumors and ruin my man's reputation!"
Who says a man's reputation isn't important? If I hear any rumors about him outside, don't blame me for not warning you!
Her rapid-fire remarks made the three people opposite her look increasingly unpleasant.
With a livid face, Deng's father looked at Xiao Che and said, "Ah Che, our two families have been friends for so many years, do we have to make things so ugly?"
"Xiao Jiao meant no harm, what's wrong with your wife? Why is she being so aggressive?"
Deng's mother sighed repeatedly, "Ache, we've watched you grow up. There's no reason why you can't even tolerate your own sister after you've married."
Xiao Che snorted coldly and hugged his wife. "What did my wife say wrong? Her words represent the thoughts of our whole family."
It doesn't make sense that you're allowed to spout nonsense while others aren't allowed to call you out on it.
Besides, Comrade Deng, didn't you really know why my family was sent to the countryside back then? If I were you, I would be keeping a low profile right now and never appear before the people you persecuted again, don't you think?"
Bai Yajing was still not satisfied and added, "I never easily ruin any relationship. Those of you who made me tear off the mask are truly despicable!"
The couple exposed Deng's father's true colors, making him turn pale.
Xiao Che's attitude was clear: there was absolutely no way to repair their relationship...
He gritted his teeth and forced out a sentence: "Good! Good! Very good!"
After saying that, she turned and left. Deng's mother angrily dragged Deng Jiao, who was still unwilling to leave, away.
Bai Yajing smacked her lips a few times. "Sigh~ A-Che, I feel like people as greedy and stupid as them probably won't understand your hints."
Xiao Che's words just now made it clear that if the Deng family calmed down, he wouldn't let them go. After all, the culprits behind what happened back then were factional struggles and the Brother Committee, and the Deng family played a very small role.
Even if it weren't their family, there would be other families. A minor punishment is enough to serve as a warning. You can't just fire someone for your own selfish reasons, can you?
However, if the Deng family were truly intelligent, they wouldn't be living like this now!
Xiao Che shrugged indifferently. "Whatever. If they cause trouble, we'll just shut them down. We've already given them two chances; a third time is too much, right? That way, no one can say anything..."
The couple ignored the family and went straight back into their house.
While the gifts were being unwrapped, Xiao Che carefully wrote them down, noting that these were all gifts that needed to be returned.
Grandpa Bai also came over with a beautifully packaged gift box.
“It was sent by your uncle. He picked it out especially for the two kids. He originally wanted to take some time to come back and visit you and the children.”
But when the research reached its most crucial stage, he couldn't get away.
Bai Yajing accepted the gift box with delight. She felt a little regretful that her uncle couldn't come back, but she understood.
"It's alright, Uncle's situation is the most important! He wrote to us last time saying that he probably won't be able to contact the outside world anymore, and told us not to worry."
What he's researching now is just as important as what his godmother is researching, but it's a decisive weapon for whether the country can stand tall in the future.
Seeing that she wasn't disappointed, Old Master Bai was relieved.
"Hehehe, I'm glad you're not angry. Open it and take a look."
She opened the gift box and found many, and rather miscellaneous, items.
There are three special tickets for baby formula alone, and all kinds of small toys and supplies for both boys and girls are good things, and they are all hard to get.
It's obvious that they put a lot of effort into it.
"Uncle, you're so kind!" Xiao Che saw it too and felt very grateful.
...
Bai Yajing ultimately returned to the military hospital before her child was weaned.
In March 1969, a conflict broke out on the border between China and Russia.
Since then, relations have remained tense, with military hospitals in various regions sending doctors and nurses to the front lines, leaving the hospital with far too few staff.
Now it's October, and the situation is getting worse. Dean Gao urged her to go back to work, so she immediately returned to the hospital.
Since she couldn't go to the front lines, she stayed at her post, which was also a contribution to the people and the country.
As for the children, she wasn't worried because her family was taking care of them. The two children were seven months old and ready to be weaned, so Xiao's mother simply bought a ewe that had just given birth to give her two grandsons goat milk.
