Shen Changchuan finally let Song Yan give him acupuncture. His headaches were unbearable!
Secretary Fang recounted what had happened.
Song Yan still had concerns.
The old commander was clearly protecting Zeng and Commander Shen.
Will their act of delivering meals to Grandma Qin give the old leader something to hold against them?
Secretary Fang laughed, "Do you think things happening around the leader are so easily leaked?"
I reckon no one outside of Chief Qin's inner circle knows about this.
Wei Aiguo also smiled as he looked at his wife.
After Shen Changchuan received acupuncture, Song Yan also prescribed medicine. Wei Aiguo went to "get" the medicine, and Song Yan then brewed it.
Yueyue watched as Grandpa Shen slowly drank his medicine, sip by sip, and she found it very strange.
"I have a fever, and my mom made me take medicine, which tastes awful."
"Grandpa Shen, does your medicine taste good? Is it sweet?" Yueyue asked.
Secretary Fang: "Your grandfather feels sweet inside, not because the medicine feels sweet."
Both Wei Aiguo and Shen Changchuan felt somewhat uncomfortable after hearing this.
Yueyue handed the Tianhuang stone to Shen Changchuan, "Grandpa Shen, isn't it beautiful?"
“Beautiful! And…it’s quite valuable,” Shen Changchuan said.
"Grandpa Chen, this is for you!" Yueyue said sincerely, looking up at him.
Shen Changchuan wasn't afraid of showing off, so he placed the Tianhuang stone in his office.
Yueyue really got a bargain when she bought it. Gu San didn't even try to raise the price with Yueyue. Otherwise, that rough stone could have sold for 500 back then.
There are quite a few discerning people out there. "Aren't you afraid people will say you accepted a bribe?"
"My granddaughter gave it to me, so what?"
"Aren't you afraid of losing it?"
"If you can lose anything here, you're just a useless soldier..."
...
Afterwards, Song Yan asked Wei Aiguo, "What are your plans?"
Wei Aiguo: "Isn't this a good thing? It saves us from having a bunch of people come looking for trouble."
Shen Ruomei went to the Leng and Li families, and somehow the news reached Old Master Shen.
Di Jianjun felt extremely ashamed because of Yueyue's situation, and he remains vigilant at all times.
Old Master Shen did come looking for him, but he stopped him.
This is Elder Zeng's residence, guarded by him. No one is allowed to approach without Elder Zeng's permission.
Grandpa Shen said this was his grandson's home.
Di Jianjun wouldn't give him any face. "Who do you call your grandson? I can call him to see you."
How could the old man possibly say that? The problem is, they don't acknowledge him. A woman following behind him said, "No matter what, my old man is Zeng Lao's elder."
"He's here. Shouldn't Old Zeng's goddaughter come out to greet him?"
Di Jianjun: "You know quite a lot, you even know that Old Zeng's daughter lives here."
Did you know she was about to give birth? How dare you let a pregnant woman who's about to give birth come to see you?
Yueyue!
"Uncle Di, what's up?" Yueyue, who was running and playing in the yard, answered.
"Where's White Frost? Let it come for a stroll at the door." Di Jianjun thought that having White Frost out was really good; no wonder Yueyue wanted to have it out so often!
He was facing a woman; what could he possibly do? Bai Shuang was more effective than him.
Bai Shuang sat menacingly at the door, making both Old Master Shen and the woman somewhat afraid.
Yueyue poked her head out from the crack in the door, wearing a red woolen hat and a red scarf, and looked around at the people outside.
The woman shouted, "Is that Yueyue? Go find your parents!"
Yueyue slammed the door shut, ignoring her completely. Did Uncle Di only come looking for her because he wouldn't let her in? This is bullying a child!
Old Master Shen and the woman were getting anxious, unable to get in. "Do you know who I am? Are you just going to block my way like this?"
We came to check on the child after hearing about the accident!
"I don't want to know who you are. I advise you to get out of here." If it weren't for General Shen's sake, Di Jianjun wouldn't have bothered talking to them.
“I’ve been a widow for decades, and no one has ever spoken to me like that before,” the woman said.
"Become a widow? What do you mean? Do you want a memorial arch for chastity? That's all outdated feudal thinking!"
Grandpa Shen, would you like to discuss traditional principles?
"If you want to argue about old-fashioned principles, do you think you have the right to force your way in?" Di Jianjun knew everything he needed to know.
Grandpa Shen: "Then have the old lady of this house come to see me. She is Wei Aiguo's adoptive mother."
I need to ask her some questions.
Di Jianjun looked at the old man. No wonder Wei Aiguo said that if they acknowledged their relationship, his wife would face a lot more trouble. But they couldn't control his wife.
His mother not only had a lot of trouble, but also had to put up with all sorts of mistreatment. His mother was too soft-hearted and couldn't handle these people.
Aunt Wei is really something!
Moreover, Wei Aiguo is a filial son, and he doesn't want his mother to suffer.
Wei Aiguo said that they didn't respect his mother at all. None of them had ever thought about giving her a proper visit.
Look at that shouting tone!
“I’m Zeng Lao’s bodyguard, not your errand boy,” Di Jianjun said.
Old Master Shen: "I'm not young anymore. You're making me stand at the door at my age. Is that the right thing to do?"
Di Jianjun approached Old Master Shen and said, "Wei Aiguo said that if you mention his mother and try to manipulate her, then let me tell you that he doesn't mind breaking your son's legs."
"What?" Old Master Shen was very surprised.
“You look down on me because I’m just a lowly police officer. You’re the same way in front of Aunt Wei, aren’t you?” Di Jianjun said. “Wei Aiguo said that if you need anything, go to him and don’t make things difficult for the women in his family. No matter if they’re old or young, or even a little bit.”
