Shen Hongxiang was beaten, and that incident was caused by him. Lao Fang asked Shen Hongxiang again what happened.
"I just said a few words to Song Yan," Shen Hongxiang murmured.
Old Fang knew his wife well. "You humiliated her, didn't you? This can of luncheon meat and milk powder is something I brought when I visited her in the hospital."
How dare you humiliate your daughter and son for what they did?
"I never expected you to do things like this. You've shown no remorse time and time again, and you even dared to have the guards at the gate stop me from giving you my things."
"You must be surprised to see these things, why didn't you stop them?" Old Shen's former decisiveness and ruthlessness were on full display. Even Lao Fang trembled at this aura.
"Someone was holding something and asking me, Mr. Shen, which startled me. I thought you were under house arrest. Even with my identification, the guards at the gate didn't want me to see you."
Later, I got angry and pressed the guard repeatedly before he finally admitted that it was your daughter who made the decision.
"Old Shen, are you being controlled by your daughter?" Old Shen recalled that tone and attitude... "Hongxiang, you were afraid I'd find out, so you actually had the guards confiscate my things. You said I wasn't feeling well and wouldn't see anyone."
"Dad, who came in today?" the old man asked. Even though Hongxiang had said so, the person still came in; their status must be extraordinary.
"The Municipal Armed Forces Department."
Shen Hongxiang's eyes widened: Song Yan actually managed to get people from the Armed Forces Department to deliver things for her.
Just then, the phone rang. Old Fang picked it up, only to find it was his fourth brother-in-law calling. Old Fang handed the phone to Old Shen.
As Old Shen listened, he suddenly picked up a purple clay teapot from the table and smashed it directly at Shen Hongxiang. The attack was sudden and caught everyone off guard. Shen Hongxiang's forehead was cut.
"...Fourth brother, don't even think about it. Even if I asked him now, he wouldn't help."
The person on the other end of the phone seemed to ask why. Mr. Shen didn't know where to begin, so he took the receiver away from his ear, and the voice came through.
"...Dad, what's happening around you? Is that Mom calling?"
Shen Hongxiang's head was bleeding profusely, and Old Mrs. Shen was frantic, shouting...
"Shut up, all of you!" Old Shen's gloomy voice silenced everyone in the room.
"Fourth brother, all military supplies are allocated for a reason. Once it's decided who gets them, it's gone, and you can't get them back."
I know how important these weapons are to you.
You're about to have an inter-unit combat exercise. With this batch of weapons, your chances of winning are much greater.
If you can achieve good results, you'll be promoted to a full-fledged deputy position after all these years.
"It's Dad's fault. Knowing you were at such a crucial time, I failed to keep your sister in check."
After saying that, Mr. Shen put the phone on the table.
"What did my sister do? Secretary Fang is in Kyoto, how could my sister be in his way?"
He didn't initially say whether he could help. This morning he directly refused me. The outcome of the weapon allocation was announced shortly afterward. The voice came through the microphone clearly.
After calming down, Old Shen said, "You two, get out!" He then picked up the phone again and recounted the whole story, including Secretary Fang's late-night visit.
Old Fang only just learned about Secretary Fang's matter.
Shen Lao Si was suffering. His father had offended someone before, and that person had suppressed him for many years.
He'd been keeping in touch with Secretary Fang for the past few years, and things seemed to be going much better in all aspects. If he got the weapons and achieved some success, he could be promoted to a full-fledged position and his military rank would rise by one level.
But to his surprise, his sister was so arrogant and aggressive. Now, she's pinning the blame on him. He just doesn't understand—with his family's means, would they really be short of that little thing? How could she have made things so ugly?
…
Old Shen called Old Fang here for two reasons. First, Shen Hongxiang's actions couldn't be kept secret; their daughter had gone to such lengths. Could they really let Fang Shengjie take advantage of her? They needed to bring the child back!
The second thing is that Jinghua has to go to the countryside; the location has already been chosen. Her husband and Hongxiang are always trying to take advantage of others, and this time they'll just hand Jinghua over to them. If they want to do anything else, they should just think about Jinghua.
Language constraints are useless; can we really send people to watch them every day?
Besides, with him around, Jinghua's life wouldn't be in danger at all.
Mr. Shen said, "Jinghua is her mother's daughter. She did things she shouldn't have done, and her mother did things she shouldn't have done. She has to bear the consequences."
When Lao Fang came out, he was completely exhausted. Shen Hongxiang's head was also given a simple bandage.
The old house stared at her coldly.
Shen Hongxiang: "Old Fang, if you hadn't insisted on divorcing me, I wouldn't be so angry with Song Yan."
Old Fang: "So, these things are still my responsibility?"
Did I tell you to knowingly give someone a pound of buckwheat noodles when your child was eating at their restaurant?
"Did I send you to humiliate Comrade Song Yan?"
"Dad! It's all my fault. Please don't blame Mom, okay?" Fang Jinghua's eyes were red and swollen, clearly from crying.
"Jinghua, your grandfather has decided to send you to the countryside, and the place has already been found in the north." Old Fang suppressed his heartache; this was his pampered daughter.
"Go north? How can that be?" Old Mrs. Shen exclaimed anxiously. "Didn't we agree to try to find somewhere nearby?"
Old Fang: "That was the original plan. But because of what Hongxiang did, my dad changed his mind."
Hongxiang, do you regret it?
You didn't hear what happened last time, but you probably guessed it, right? It's because of you that Fourth Brother's promotion is hopeless this time.
Shen Hongxiang knew it was too late to say anything now. She had ruined her fourth brother and her daughter.
"Jinghua, see me out!" Old Fang still wanted to find out exactly what Shen Hongxiang had said.
After saying these words, Lao Fang left...
Fang Shengjie wanted to cry when he saw his father. He didn't know what his mother had done. But the other three families had come without his family.
Fang Shengjie wasn't stupid; he clearly sensed something was wrong. He didn't know what to do. Going to their place to eat was obviously taking advantage of them. He was the only one who was giving them two cents a day and then eating well with them.
He wanted to eat in the cafeteria. But the other three weren't there.
Fang Shengjie was extremely anxious. He couldn't contact his father yesterday, and when he called at noon, his father said he wasn't there.
I didn't expect Dad to come.
Old Fang: "I'll talk to Commander He and take you home today."
"Dad, what exactly happened?" Fang Shengjie asked.
"We'll talk about it slowly on the way back."
