"Yes!" Lu Shiyi nodded firmly.
"Also, Old Lu went to Songjiang Commune and has had little contact with the imperial capital." The chief instructed the stubborn old man, "You stay away from the battlefield for your own safety."
"Captain, would you like to come with us, the other four old gentlemen?" Lu Shiyi thought of the other four old generals.
"The other four are going to where their younger generations are serving. They look like they miss their children, so the elders are going to look after them," the chief commander said, separating the five old generals. This was the last bit of their strength. "Once you leave this door, you can't trust anyone."
"yes!"
When Lu Shiyi heard the arrangements made by the chief, he had a bad feeling in his heart. It seemed like the chief was making arrangements for his funeral.
"Old leader, you...don't get yourself upset because of those people." Lu Shiyi said cautiously.
The chief laughed loudly. He was ready to take action against those people. These backbone forces had to be protected. If they failed, these protected people would have to participate in the reconstruction.
Lu Shiyi's eyes turned red. This was the first time a senior leader had made such an arrangement.
"Alright, I'll take care of those people when you return before the Spring Festival," the commander reassured Lu Bairen. "You're a firecracker. Listen to Comrade Du Ruo and A Yi over there and avoid putting yourself in danger. Also, have Old Song and the others train well. If... they hear of my death, China will need you to help Old Guan recover."
"Alright, stop saying such depressing things. I don't know you yet." Lu Bairen knew the situation was critical and his old comrade would directly tell him about his affairs. "You've faced so many dangers before and nothing happened. Don't keep scaring yourself."
"Old Guan will be inspecting southern Guangdong at the end of the month and will be back in two months." The old commander informed him of the arrangements. "The families of those people have been transferred to the imperial capital. Before you leave, transfer the third and fourth teams of the Divine Sword to Rongju."
Lu Shiyi kept the old leader's instructions in mind and prepared to clean up the farm so that the old leader would no longer have to worry about those elderly people.
The grandparents and grandchildren were the last group to leave Rongju. Many people in the compound wanted to get information from the Lu family's grandparents and grandchildren, but they all returned empty-handed.
Lu Shiyi drove his jeep to the door of the old house and heard Aunt Yang persuading Du Ruo not to be angry. Lu Bairen opened the door and walked to his wife's side.
"Honey, is someone angry with you?" Lu Bairen sat on the chair next to Du Ruo and signaled Lu Shiyi to leave quickly with his eyes.
Du Ruo angrily told the story of Cao Xiu and the other three. Lu Shiyi leaned against the doorway, hiding under the wall, and heard Du Ruo talking about the quarrel in the yard.
The Cao family was one of the people on the list. Lu Shiyi didn't know how to take the lead, but the Cao family jumped out on their own.
"The more arrogant the Cao family becomes, the harder our future will be. We must trust the leader." Lu Bairen persuaded his wife not to worry.
Lu Shiyi drove back. The two elders heard the sound of the car starting and shook their heads helplessly.
"Ayi should have heard it and will ask Xiaojin when he gets back." Lu Bairen reached out and patted her hand, patiently asking her what she had done today.
Lu Shiyi drove home, Du Ruo's words just now echoing in his mind. The Cao family actually took the initiative to attack.
He didn't know whether Su Jin and her son were being bullied, and he wanted to be with them immediately.
"Xiao Jin!" Lu Shiyi parked the car at the gate of the yard and went straight in.
Su Jin heard his cry in the space, came out of the space, and ran out in slippers.
"Wife!" Lu Shiyi hugged Su Jin, who was almost tripped by the door, at the door, "Were you bullied this afternoon?"
"It was so inexplicable. I didn't even have time to react before Mrs. Wang and the family members nearby helped to fight back." Su Jin complained.
Lu Shiyi laughed heartily: "The Cao family has misplaced their position, believing that Cao Jiang can cover up everything."
The family members nearby have all been threatened by Cao Xiu's words, and Cao Jiang is a foolishly filial son, so Cao Xiu's attitude will affect Cao Jiang's work.
Over time, many family members who curry favor with the Cao family began to flatter Cao Xiu.
"Ayi, I've seen those four people constantly giving Grandma trouble," Su Jin complained to her face. "They were particularly arrogant and warned me that if I didn't apologize, it would affect your job."
Lu Shiyi chuckled and said, "Cao Xiu doesn't even know your identity clearly, and you're saying it will affect mine?"
"I didn't take their words to heart," Su Jin leaned on his shoulder and looked at her angrily: "Ayi, we are leaving at the end of the month, how much do we need to buy?"
"I need to bring something for Wu Bu, Lao Lin and the others. The old men want to eat the dim sum from Daoxiangcun. I took the slips from the bag and made a reservation, and also bought ten roast ducks to take back." Lu Shiyi was glad that the weather was not hot now.
"No need to buy it, I have Quanjude roast duck inside." Su Jin likes to eat roast duck and is a regular customer of Quanjude Roast Duck and Donglaishun Hot Pot Lamb in the commercial street.
"Wife, thank you so much." Lu Shiyi learned that Quanjude now only has 50 roast ducks a day, and if you don't make a reservation a month in advance, you won't be able to get them at all.
Although Mr. Guan could approve the request and squeeze in to buy roast duck, Lu Shiyi didn't want to trouble Mr. Guan.
"You should go to Quanjude, otherwise grandpa and grandma will find out." Su Jin instructed Lu Shiyi.
There is a vegetable cellar at home on the farm, which can be used as an excuse to take food, but some things that are difficult to preserve cannot be taken away.
"Wife, tell me a day in advance if you need to get something from me next time. I'll be out and about!" Lu Shiyi warned Su Jin, "Don't let it slip again."
Lu Shiyi protected Su Jin and didn't want Lu Bairen to find out anything special.
