Chapter 98 Three Updates in One

Zhou Shengqiang nearly fainted from anger. Ever since he used his connections to get his son Zhou Hongfei out of the Public Security Bureau and away from the harmful place of Shiwei Food Factory, he had originally planned to take him to the Northwest Military Region to discipline him himself.

It’s just that this kid had already found his grandmother in the capital to support him, and he quickly headed north.

No matter how capable Zhou Shengqiang is, he can only obey orders because he is his old leader and father-in-law.

But no one would have thought that Zhou Hongfei, this unfilial son, would cause trouble again in the capital! He actually secretly got a jeep and drove to the city to cause trouble. The details sent from the Public Security Bureau even revealed that he was working with a group of scoundrels to scare the people for fun, pretending to drive the car to hit people, until the people were scared to death and looked ugly, then they stopped the car.

The desk was banged loudly. Zhou Shengqiang was furious, but there was nothing he could do. He had to resign himself to his fate and call the capital.

No matter how unfilial he is, what can he do? He can't just sit there and do nothing.

However, this time when he tried to use his connections to make a big deal out of a small matter, something unexpected happened.

Things are not going smoothly.

Zhou Hongfei and four scoundrels were taken to the Public Security Bureau. After all, this incident happened in a busy city, in full view of the public, and caused a huge commotion. It didn't take long for the news to spread throughout the streets and alleys.

Even though Zhou Shengqiang and his father-in-law Wei Guangrong had extensive connections, they could not get the Public Security Bureau to release the person easily under the attention of the entire city's citizens.

In fact, recently, ordinary people have been strolling in front of the police station every day, saying that those who drive cars to cause trouble must be severely punished, including some people with strong family backgrounds. Even reporters from several major newspapers in the capital have come, cameras clicking, and clamoring to interview the progress.

Even though the reporter was not interviewed, the shocking incident of a jeep scaring people in a busy city was reported in the newspaper with considerable space. Not only did the newspaper disclose the seriousness of the incident, which showed that the lives of ordinary people were not taken seriously and were completely disregarded, but the newspaper also praised the military comrades who bravely acted at the time.

Finally, I specifically mentioned the interviews with the onlookers - [Based on interviews with eyewitnesses and in-depth investigations, this newspaper learned that the father and grandmother of the young man who drove the jeep to cause trouble are both people with very powerful backgrounds. Did such a family and background give the man surnamed Zhou the confidence to cause trouble? We don't know. Will such a family background become a protection for the man surnamed Zhou to escape punishment? We believe it will not, and Jingshi Daily will continue to follow up on the report - reporter He Guoqiang]

Lin Xiang flipped through the freshly published Beijing Daily and could not help but applaud silently. Today's journalists are much better than many media in later generations. They dare to report and tell the truth. They are not accomplices who only care about the popularity of news and spread rumors without verifying the facts.

All of a sudden, everyone in Beijing knew that a few days ago, a madman drove a jeep around to scare people and laughed happily with a group of scoundrels.

What's more frightening is that this person's family is not ordinary, his father and grandmother are both important people. Thousands of eyes are watching to see if this person's family background can get him out without any damage.

Because of this, Zhou Hongfei's grandmother Wei Guangrong was furious. He called his son-in-law Zhou Shengqiang and scolded him. In the end, he said, "Hongfei did all these things because of you! As a father, do you still want to stay in the northwest and do nothing?"

Zhou Shengqiang had not expected this incident to become such a big deal, which almost cut off his possibility of using personal connections in private. He could only take leave in a hurry and rush to the capital with his wife Wei Minhui.

......

"Director Yao, my son does things without any rules and is too willful, but he definitely has no intention of harming the people. I will definitely punish him and educate him when I return."

"Commander Zhou, I also know what you asked Director Yang to say, but now the whole city is watching this matter, especially the people all know that Comrade Zhou Hongfei has a father who is a commander and a grandmother who is a retired commander. It is indeed difficult to deal with."

Zhou Shengqiang suppressed his anger and asked someone to investigate after he left the police station: "You can check it out. Hong Fei is just driving a car. How could someone reveal his family situation and know everything about it?"

Half a day later, news came back: "It was said that a soldier who was brave enough to do what was right stopped the car and started yelling."

"Soldiers?" Zhou Shengqiang had a bad feeling. "What's their name?"

"Congratulations Hongyuan."

Zhou Shengqiang almost vomited blood!

——

It was a fine Sunday, and the bright golden sunlight shone through the green shadows of the camphor trees, leaving mottled shadows all over the ground.

Little Helin, who recently celebrated her fourth birthday, was jumping around in her beautiful red cloth shoes, stepping on the ground where light and shadow flickered.

The family just came back from outside and bought a lot of things. As summer was approaching, the family was thinking about buying some new clothes. He Hongyuan insisted that he didn't need to, but his insistence was in vain. He Guifang, as the only elder in the family, said that the family had to get ready and make new clothes.

The cloth coupons that I had saved for a year came in handy. I selected various cloths and carried them home.

When they were almost at the gate of the military academy, little He Lin was about to perform military boxing in the courtyard, making the adults laugh. He Guifang watched for a while, then took the lead to go upstairs with some cloth in her arms: "Hongyuan, Xiangxiang, you take Linlin to play downstairs, I will go upstairs to make clothes first."

"Mom..." Lin Xiang just wanted to persuade her mother-in-law to take a rest, but the strong and healthy mother-in-law disappeared in an instant and she couldn't force her.

When little Helin was a little over two years old, she learned martial arts from her father. Her fists were so weak that they didn't have much killing power, but maybe she inherited her father's fighting power, this girl has been very strong since she was young, stronger than most of her peers. Now she is four years old, and apart from anything else, her movements look very good.

Neighbors passing by love to tease her: "Linlin, you can also box, you are really talented."

Little He Lin giggled and acted quite seriously, and couldn't help but be proud: "Of course, I'm awesome~"

He Hongyuan stood aside with his arms folded, looking at the lady with a pretentious manner, and curled his lips: "You are so young, but you have such a big tone."

"So what?" Lin Xiang touched the lady's round head. "Our Linlin may be more powerful than your father in the future, right?"

"Yes!" Xiao Helin nodded vigorously.

After basking in the sun downstairs and chatting with neighbors, Lin Xiang was about to take her girlfriend and husband upstairs when she suddenly saw an unpleasant figure appear at the door of the military academy dormitory - Zhou Shengqiang.

Considering the big fuss Zhou Hongfei had caused recently, Lin Xiang could probably guess why he came.

"Captain He, someone is looking for you outside." The sentry came in with the message.

"Hongyuan..." Lin Xiang knew that her husband hated seeing this scumbag father the most, and just wanted to persuade him, "Don't pay attention to him, let's go home."

But this time, He Hongyuan changed his attitude: "No, I'll go out and talk to him for a while."

Lin Xiang looked at the man in confusion, but heard the man explain: "It's rare for him to be so anxious and exhausted. It would be a pity if I didn't go and see the joke."

Lin Xiang: "..."

You are amazing!

He Hongyuan had always been reluctant to listen to Zhou Shengqiang's words, but this time he walked to the back door of the military academy and took the initiative to speak: "Commander Zhou, I heard that your son was arrested and taken to the Public Security Bureau. Congratulations! You have taught your son well."

Zhou Shengqiang had just been angered by Zhou Hongfei, the unfilial son, and now he was angered by He Hongyuan again. He was suddenly in trouble.

"Hongyuan - you! How can you talk like that! I am your biological father and Hongfei is your biological brother. Even if you don't acknowledge this relationship, you can't exaggerate and harm Hongfei!" Zhou Shengqiang was forced by his father-in-law to resolve this matter. He must get Hongfei out, but the matter was tricky and the commotion was too big. In addition, Hongyuan pointed out Hongfei's family background in front of everyone, which further intensified the conflict. Now the whole city is watching, and Hongfei will be sent to jail.

He Hongyuan sneered, "Zhou Hongfei did such a bastard thing, but you didn't care about your own son, but came to question me? Chief Zhou, Zhou Hongfei is like this, didn't you condone it? If you protect him again and again, he will only become more powerful. As for what I said, which one is false? Besides, these are all the little brothers he brought with him who kept shouting, afraid that others don't know. I just happened to help, let everyone know that Zhou Hongfei has a strong background, and help him raise his face. By the way, tell him, don't thank me, it's a piece of cake."

"He Hongyuan!" Zhou Shengqiang was so angry at his own son that his face was horrified and his eyes almost popped out. Listen to what he said! "You treat your own father and your own brother like this, aren't you afraid of retribution?"

"Oh, retribution?" He Hongyuan's eyes gradually turned cold, and the words he uttered seemed to be wrapped in a cold blade. "If there really is retribution in this world, the first one should be you!"

"You——" Zhou Shengqiang was used to scolding his son, and he was so angry that he raised his hand and wanted to slap He Hongyuan.

When Zhou Hongfei made countless mistakes and made him lose his temper, Zhou Shengqiang could no longer tolerate it and slapped him in the face.

But He Hongyuan was not Zhou Hongfei. He grabbed Zhou Shengqiang's wrist, blocked the slap that was about to be thrown, and then shook Zhou Shengqiang's hand away heavily.

"Zhou Shengqiang, who do you think you are? You still want to hit me?" He Hongyuan was in his prime, full of energy. He was no longer the child who was abandoned by his biological father and could only run and chase helplessly. Now he was stronger than Zhou Shengqiang.

Zhou Shengqiang's right arm was violently thrown away by He Hongyuan, and he felt a numbing pain. When he heard these words, he was suddenly overwhelmed by sadness, and he lost all his strength. He seemed to have become a head shorter in an instant, with his back slightly bent.

"Chief Zhou." Lin Xiang sent her daughter and other children in the courtyard to play, while she listened at the wall for a while. She was furious. How could there be such a shameless person? She didn't want to care about the status of elders and juniors. She immediately said angrily, "You have the time to bother us. You might as well go back and discipline your son. Don't let Zhou Hongfei cause trouble every day while you stand behind and clean up the mess. Otherwise, you will continue to be angry and have a headache in the future."

"Lin Xiang, do you have the right to speak here?" Zhou Shengqiang was badly criticized by his own son, but now even his daughter-in-law dared to talk to him like this. He was furious.

Until the sound of footsteps came from the gate of the military academy, and the clear and pleasant voice of a child rang out: "Bad boy, big bad boy! Don't yell at my mom, don't bully my dad!"

Little Coconut had her hair tied into two pigtails, and the red flower hairpin on her head made her look even cuter. The sweet and soft little one ran straight to her parents, facing Zhou Shengqiang with her arms wide open.

"I'm really strong and I can fight! You bad bastard!"

He Hongyuan & Lin Xiang:?

Zhou Shengqiang's anger instantly dissipated when it touched the little baby, but he still felt a pang of pain in his heart when he heard his granddaughter calling him a bad boy.

He Hongyuan picked up the daughter, held the child in his arms, held his wife in one hand, and turned away, unwilling to pay any more attention to Zhou Shengqiang: "Let's go home."

"Dad." Little Coconut hugged his father's neck, remembering that when he asked his mother who came to see his father, his mother stared outside with full concentration and said that it was the person who bullied his father.

Little Coconut was so angry that his face wrinkled. He patted his father's shoulder with his little hand and coaxed him: "Dad, I will protect you and won't let that bad guy bully you."

He Hongyuan hugged his daughter's arm tightly, his heart ached, and a smile appeared on his lips: "Okay, our Linlin is capable and can protect me."

Turning around and looking at my lover, there were stars in my eyes.

......

The family of three reached a consensus not to tell He Guifang about Zhou Shengqiang's visit, so as to avoid worrying her.

When little Helin got home, she anxiously asked her father to turn on the TV: "Dad, I want to watch TV."

It was only a while ago that she realized that the TV is not a TV chicken that cannot be eaten, but it is very interesting to watch, and there are people inside it that can even talk!

He Guifang was busy sewing clothes on the sewing machine. Lin Xiang was discussing clothing styles with her mother-in-law. When she heard what she said, she said, "It will take no more than half an hour."

Little Coconut sighed in disappointment and tried to bargain with his father: "Dad, please help me."

He Hongyuan was helpless: "Your mother has the final say. If I help you, your mother will punish me as well."

Little Coconut frowned and pouted. Just as he was about to talk to his father again, he heard his mother speak -

Lin Xiang: "What are you two whispering about?"

They both looked at Lin Xiang and shook their heads: "Nothing."

Little Coconut: "My Unpromising Self and My Unpromising Father"

——

Lin Xiang didn't have any internal information from the Public Security Bureau, and the next time she heard about the outcome of the Zhou Hongfei incident was at school.

At the end of May, she was reading in her dormitory when she heard many classmates talking about it.

"Have you heard that the son of the chief who scared people while driving in a busy city a while ago has been sentenced to jail?"

"Really? I thought his father and grandmother were going to kick him out."

"Of course not! Maybe it's possible at other times, but it's difficult this time. The whole city is watching, who dares to let him go!"

Not only did they not dare to release him easily, they also sentenced him to a heavy sentence.

After all, there was no real casualty this time, and according to the law, the punishment is usually 15 days of detention and criticism and education. However, the incident had a huge impact on public opinion, and the nature of the incident was so bad, the attitude of several people was arrogant, and more than 100 people were involved, so they were directly sentenced to heavy sentences.

Not only that, the Public Security Bureau also found out that the jeep Zhou Hongfei was driving was actually "stolen" from the Capital Military Region. This man relied on his grandmother's connections to borrow the car from a certain military region leader, saying that he was just going for a spin nearby. This directly implicated the leader and he was also punished and criticized by the military region. It was also because of this incident that the military region strictly prohibited the loan of vehicles to any unrelated persons.

In the retirement home.

Wei Guangrong was recently visited by the current head of the military region, who hinted in various ways that Zhou Hongfei had brought shame to the military region. Wei Guangrong was so embarrassed at his old age that he had no choice but to apologize to the military region after retirement, and even wrote a handwritten self-criticism report.

As soon as the others left, he smashed the teacup and yelled at Zhou Shengqiang: "It's all your fault. If it weren't for you, Hongfei, such a sensible and obedient child, wouldn't have done such a thing! In the end, you can't even protect your own son!"

Zhou Shengqiang was in a bad mood. He was angry at Zhou Hongfei and He Hongyuan. He tried to get help from others but got rejected everywhere. He lost all his face. Now he was scolded by his father-in-law. He was even more angry: "Dad, is this my fault? If it wasn't you, mom, and Minhui who spoiled this unfilial son, how could he have caused all these troubles? Do you know how many messes I have cleaned up for him?"

"Asshole!" Wei Guangrong was so angry that his hands, which were covered with age spots, began to tremble. He pointed at his son-in-law and said, "How dare you say that! It's the father's fault if the son is not well educated! You..."

"I want to take care of my son, but have you given me the chance? If I slap him, you will scold me. How long have you been keeping him under your control?"

"Stop arguing, Dad! Sheng Qiang!"

The two women beside her were busy trying to persuade them to stop fighting, each pulling their own husband. Wei Minhui's eyes were filled with tears. On one side was her father, on the other was her husband, and her son was still in jail. She didn't understand...why did the originally harmonious and prosperous family become such a mess.

——

Lin Xiang was quite satisfied after reading the report carefully in the newspaper. He put it away as a souvenir and then plunged into the sea of ​​books again.

In between busy studies, Lin Xiangai and her roommates went out of the school for a walk.

When passing by the supply and marketing cooperative, I saw that in the midsummer, ordinary people, sweating profusely, walked to the soda counter and bought a bottle of icy Arctic Ocean soda or the popular new product 119 coconut juice in Beijing, just to cool down.

In the two months since the products of Factory 119 were listed on major counters in Beijing, sales have been rising steadily, and all categories have flourished, becoming somewhat famous.

Lin Xiang receives a bonus from Kong Zhenzhen arranged by Factory Director Zhao every month, twenty yuan a month, which makes her feel very fulfilled.

They even forgot about the normal welfare and sent some cloth coupons, sugar coupons and grain coupons from time to time, which was also thoughtful.

The summer heat is scorching, the chirping of cicadas rises and falls among the lush green trees, and the new year's college entrance examination arrives as scheduled.

Watching the reports on the college entrance examination in the newspapers and the radio broadcasts informing the public to follow the traffic arrangements during the college entrance examination period and give priority to the candidates in travel, everything felt so real.

In a trance, Lin Xiang almost forgot that she was also a student who was about to enter the second year of college.

At the end of June, Lin Xiang received a letter from 119. Kong Zhenzhen mentioned that Zhang Yafen, the daughter of Sister Guazi, had applied to the best university in Haining Province and had received an admission letter a few days ago.

Having given up her obsessive pursuit of Capital University, Zhang Yafen felt relieved when she heard that her mother had taught Xiang Dongkai a lesson on her behalf.

I simply applied to a university close to home because I didn't want to be thousands of miles away from my mother.

Zhang Yafen's original words were, if this happened again, since we were close, it would be convenient for my mother to go to the house and beat the person up to get revenge.

As soon as he said this, his mother slapped him on the head.

When Lin Xiang saw this, the corners of her mouth curled up.

The letter went on to say that both her and her husband's families finally had a college student, which made Sister Guazi so happy that she immediately spent money to make banners and even hung one in front of her second-floor building - warmly congratulating my daughter Zhang Yafen for being admitted to Shanghaining University (the best university in Haining).

Lin Xiang couldn't help laughing again when she saw the addition of the brackets.

At the end of June, Lin Xiang finished her final exams for the first semester of her sophomore year and welcomed the hot summer vacation.

As time went by, more and more people set up stalls on the streets to sell all kinds of food and daily necessities, and there were even farmers from nearby suburbs pushing ripe watermelons from the fields.

Lin Xiang bought four slices of watermelon at a stall for eight cents, and went home to eat the red, sandy watermelon with her family while talking about the current situation.

Mother-in-law He Guifang was wearing a new dress she had made herself, a dark blue short-sleeved shirt with fine stitching. The style was suggested by Lin Xiang, and a few auspicious cloud patterns were added to the collar, which was very beautiful: "Big bowls of tea are set up outside. They say that it was applied for by educated youth who did not have a job after returning to the city. It is still formal."

Lin Xiang spat out watermelon seeds, knowing that this day would come sooner or later: "That's good. We can't leave so many people idle. We are also worried because we have no money to live."

“Yes.” He Guifang had lived through a decade in which private transactions were not allowed. Now she was surprised to see that she could set up a stall privately and make money.

At the same time, I feel a little itchy.

Some words were stuck in her throat, and He Guifang was confused for a moment.

Seeing her mother-in-law hesitate to speak, Lin Xiang asked her curiously, "Mom, what's wrong with you? Tell me what's going on."

He Guifang seemed to have made a mistake. She clasped her hands together and confessed, "Well, Xiangxiang, I took money from people to make clothes. Do you think this is okay?"

Lin Xiang thought that something had happened that made her mother-in-law so embarrassed.

She smiled and said, "Someone was impressed by your craftsmanship and paid you to help tailor and make clothes?"

"Yes." He Guifang has been able to work in the fields since she was a child. She has never done any trading. She spent the first forty years farming in the countryside and earned work points. Later, she followed her son and daughter-in-law to take care of her granddaughter and no longer worried about money.

A few days ago, she was wearing the new clothes she made and taking Xiao Yezi out to buy groceries. Her craftsmanship was noticed by the neighbors, who were willing to pay two yuan to let He Guifang help make a wedding dress for her, with a good style and fine stitching.

Now that the family is not short of money and lives a prosperous life, He Guifang is not greedy for the two dollars, but she has never experienced the feeling of making money by her own skills.

I agreed on impulse.

After agreeing, she became uneasy again, wondering if this was speculation or petty bourgeois behavior. She had to avoid being labeled as such, which would affect the future of her son and daughter-in-law.

She was so upset about this that she couldn't sleep well for several nights.

Now that she had finally spoken out, she felt relieved.

"Will it affect you? If not, I will return the money."

Lin Xiang hurriedly stopped her mother-in-law and advised her: "It's no big deal to make clothes for others with such a small amount of money. Now the country is advocating reform and opening up, and has also relaxed its policies on private transactions."

He Guifang and her daughter-in-law confirmed it again and again, then she breathed a sigh of relief and continued to work on the sewing machine with a happy pace: "Then I'll hurry up and make the clothes for others!"

She turned to her granddaughter and said, "Linlin, grandma will earn money and buy you some candy when the time comes!"

When Xiao Helin heard this, her eyes sparkled: "Okay! Come on, grandma!"

Lin Xiang knew that her mother-in-law was staying at home, and although she had Linlin to accompany her, she was inevitably a little bored. Hongyuan basically studied and trained during the day, and she was in school six days a week. It was easy for the elderly to lose their direction in life and be drowned in a boring and repetitive life. Now she has something she likes and something that gives her a sense of accomplishment, which is not easy.

When He Hongyuan returned home, He Guifang smiled like a child, which was a rare sight. Although her temples were gray, her smile still showed a hint of childish innocence.

"What's wrong with mom? Is there anything good happening at home?" He Hongyuan was curious.

He Guifang was unusually lively: "Hongyuan, mother made some money! Two whole dollars!"

He Guifang quickly explained the whole story to her son, and he smiled widely: "After the clothes are finished and sent to someone, I will spend these two yuan to treat you guys to candy."

He Hongyuan was about to ask his mother to stop working too hard and take care of herself, but when he saw her shining eyes and the big smile on her face, he swallowed his words of advice: "Mom, you have always been talented. I remember you knew how to make clothes before. People in the village said that you made the best and most neat clothes."

He Guifang recalled the past: "That's right, I knew how to do it before. Your grandmother taught me this skill herself."

"Do it when you have time, but don't overwork yourself or you'll get tired."

"I know."

He Guifang agreed to it, but the development speed of this clothing business was still somewhat beyond He Hongyuan's expectations.

Over the next month, He Guifang's reputation for making clothes spread around, and some comrades who didn't know how to make clothes tried to spend money to make clothes.

If you buy the cloth yourself, you just need to pay He Guifang one or two yuan for the labor fee.

He Guifang was naturally deft, and since she was making clothes for money, she was extra careful and serious, and every piece of clothing was well made, not to mention Lin Xiang's occasional pointers on new styles, so none of the customers were dissatisfied.

At the end of the month, I had made six pieces of clothing and earned ten yuan and fifty cents.

This made He Guifang very excited. The old lady, who had always been frugal, waved her hand and wanted to treat everyone in her family to a meal!

After ordering four of the state-owned hotel's signature dishes, He Guifang straightened her back and said, "Linlin, this is money earned by grandma herself, so eat as much as you can."

Little Helin nodded and ate very hard: "Eat, I want to eat a lot!"

Lin Xiang asked her daughter: "Is grandma amazing?"

Little Helin chewed the braised pork and mumbled, "How disgusting!"

He Hongyuan put a piece of braised pork into his mother's bowl and said, "Mom, you are really amazing. This meal today is all thanks to you."

He Guifang's face wrinkled with laughter, and her mouth could hardly close: "I have already received five garment orders for next month, I have to work hard!"

He Hongyuan and Lin Xiang looked at each other and both saw how energetic the old lady was. She was really a desperate woman.

Lin Xiang's summer vacation ended with her teaching her mother-in-law about various clothing styles. She not only introduced some modern trends but also some classic designs that would never go out of style. She also took her mother-in-law to a nearby department store to look at the ready-made clothes whenever she had nothing to do.

As she studied, He Guifang was able to master it and come up with some tricks on her own. She became more energetic and vigorous, as if she had become several times more energetic.

In early September, the day before Lin Xiang returned to school to start the second semester of her sophomore year, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law went to deliver goods. In their hands were new clothes wrapped in bundles, which were made for the daughters of retired cadres in a cadre building.

After coming out of the staff building, He Guifang held the two yuan reward tightly in her hand and said with great enthusiasm: "Come on, Xiangxiang, I'll treat you to coconut juice."

Lin Xiang discovered that her mother-in-law had become addicted to treating people to meals ever since she started her clothing business. She was very domineering.

She also said: "Okay, Mom, I'm waiting for your bottle of coconut juice."

The two saw He Hongyuan bringing little He Lin out to pick someone up at the door of the supply and marketing cooperative. He Guifang paid for four bottles of coconut juice, and each of them drank from a glass bottle. However, her eyes caught a middle-aged couple arguing on the side of the road.

It looks somewhat familiar.

"Shengqiang, Hongfei got out with great difficulty, why are you still angry? After all, he is our son. It is so miserable to be in jail. The child has suffered a lot and is ruined like that. Don't scold him. What's more, his parents are at home. They are old, can't you just go along with them and stop making them angry?" Wei Minhui growled almost hysterically.

Zhou Shengqiang was furious and replied to her unhappily: "How dare that unfilial son have the last name Zhou? He really brought shame to our Zhou family! Now that he is out of prison, what do you expect him to do? He can't even live a life of idleness and wait for death! And he wants me to look good to your parents. Your parents are 80% responsible for Zhou Hongfei's current situation!"

The two were pulling and tugging each other, and they looked a bit fierce. Zhou Shengqiang walked away in a huff. When he turned around to get rid of his lover Wei Minhui, he saw a family of four in front of him.

After all, he and He Guifang had been married for many years, and it was he who chose to leave her and go away with He Hongyuan. At this moment, Zhou Shengqiang's face froze, and he didn't want the family shame to be exposed.

Zhou Shengqiang and Wei Minhui, the couple who always looked respectable and well-matched, were now in a fierce and violent state. On the contrary, He Guifang, who had been full of energy recently, looked a few years younger than them.

He Hongyuan watched the couple quarreling with a sneer on his face, while Lin Xiang couldn't help but look at them while holding her daughter.

"Let's go home and stop watching the hustle and bustle." He Guifang didn't feel anything when she saw the two people. At this moment, she only cared about her family and her thriving business!

Zhou Shengqiang was held tightly by Wei Minhui, the sleeves of his shirt were pulled into wrinkles, and his hair, which was originally combed neatly, was a little messy. He lowered his eyebrows again, and his lover Wei Minhui, who had been elegant and dignified for decades, was now no different from a street woman, looking ten years older, with her hair tied up and scattered in a mess, her face flushed due to emotional excitement, and her voice hoarse.

Turning around, I saw the family of four leaving, laughing and talking happily.

Zhou Shengqiang felt sad. He pulled back his sleeves and walked away. Wei Minhui was left chasing after him, but she couldn't keep up with the man's speed.

——

School started in September and Lin Xiang was in a good mood. Everything was going well for her recently.

119 entered the capital city and supplied the whole country, with good reputation and sales. Zhou Hongfei was courting death, and I guess Zhou Shengqiang was almost pissed off. When he ran into the pretentious couple that day, he lost his pretense and started quarreling in the street, which was really disgraceful.

Everything is going well now, including her studies being stable, Lin Xiang is content.

Just shortly after school started, when Lin Xiang heard Zhong Lihua, who had been obsessed with studying after the breakup, began to daydream about the winter vacation, she suddenly woke up.

Oh no, this semester is over and He Hongyuan’s two-year training period is about to end!

At that time, he would have to return to the island, while he would continue to study in the capital.

The two of them will have to be separated for at least two years, and there won't be many opportunities to see each other in the middle. The mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law can stay in the capital or on the island, and they have free time and can go anywhere conveniently.

In other words, both my husband and I are busy, and at most we can go back to the island during the winter and summer vacations.

She had a comfortable life in the past two years and almost forgot about it.

When she returned home on Saturday, Lin Xiang was extremely sad. There was nothing she could do about it. It shouldn't have been a big deal, but they had never been apart for a long time since they got married.

It’s been two years, and now I think about it, I really can’t bear to let it go.

Feeling depressed, Lin Xiang discussed with her daughter who wanted to sleep with her parents tonight: "Linlin, how about you sleep with grandma tonight?"

Little He Lin felt that this was familiar. Her obsidian eyes rolled and she smiled slyly: "I know, Mommy wants to hold Daddy to sleep. Then Mommy will buy me some candy tomorrow."

Lin Xiang: "..."

You've negotiated with your dad so many times that you're already good at answering directly, right?

"Okay, Mommy will buy you some candy tomorrow."

After coaxing her daughter to sleep with her grandmother, Lin Xiang was about to go out with the child when she ran into He Hongyuan who appeared at the bedroom door.

The man had just returned from military school, covered in dust, but his eyes were full of smiles when he looked at her.

After sending the child away, according to Lin Xiang's usual personality, she would definitely joke with He Hongyuan, but now she is still immersed in sorrow.

"Have you forgotten too? You only have less than half a year left in your military training, and you will have to go back to the island by then." Lin Xiang took the initiative to get close to the man, resting her head on his chest, her hands tightly clasped around his thin waist, "I just realized this today. I've had a good life these past two years, and I forgot that we were about to separate."

He Hongyuan raised his hand and touched his wife's hair, feeling that she was particularly clingy tonight: "Can't bear to let go?"

"Yeah." Lin Xiang only spoke from the heart at this moment, her voice was muffled, she clenched her hands again, half sat up and kissed the man on the lips, "You go back and work hard, I will come back to see you during the winter and summer vacations. If you have a long vacation, come to the capital to see me."

He spoke in a pitiful voice, like a poor little duck.

He Hongyuan was about to say something when his wife kissed him again. Her soft and warm lips brushed across his eyelids, nose tip, and thin lips like a feather, making his heart itchy.

Forget it, I'll tell her tomorrow that I've been seconded to the Capital Military Region and won't be returning to the 119th Unit for the time being, so we don't have to be separated.

After all, this isn't the right atmosphere to say this.
