Li Xiangqiang hugged his wife and said in a deep voice: "You know, I like Tunan very much. If Yuanyuan wasn't a few years older than him, I would have wanted to introduce them to someone and let Tunan become my son-in-law."

Li Yuanyuan is the only daughter of Li Xiangqiang and his first wife. She is now 27 years old. She was married a few years ago and has two sons and one daughter, all of whom are capable of making money.

"Now that Xinyue and Tunan are married, if you can bring Xinyue back home, I will be her father and Tunan will be your legitimate son-in-law. Of course you are willing. I support you bringing your daughter home."

Dongfang Xiaoqing was delighted and smacked Li Xiangqiang on the face, "Thank you, Xiangqiang."

Li Xiangqiang shook his head. "It's useless if we are willing. You need Xinyue to agree. She has never seen you since she was a child, and she has no feelings for you as her biological mother. If she is only a few years old or a few years old now, she may still yearn for maternal love. In other words, if she is living in dire straits now, and you can help her and save her, I think it will not be difficult to recognize her as a relative."

"But the current situation is that Xinyue has severed ties with her adoptive parents and formed a happy little family with Tunan. Her husband is the head of the group and loves her very much."

Li Xiangqiang took a sip of tea, paused for a moment, and then said, "To put it bluntly, you didn't show up when Xinyue needed you the most. Now that she is happy and content, she may not recognize you. She may even hate you for abandoning her and not looking for her for all these years."

Dongfang Xiaoqing's face turned pale and her eyes began to tear up: "I didn't mean not to go look for her. Every time I go home, my mother says that Xinyue is doing well. I'm afraid that going there will disturb her life."

There was guilt in her tone, and even Dongfang Xiaoqing herself might not believe it. Even if Zhang Lihua said that Zhan Xinyue was living a good life, the commune was not far from Changhong Brigade, and it would take more than an hour to walk there.

If a mother really wants to see her daughter, she will not hesitate even if it means going through fire and water, not to mention an hour's journey.

However, Dongfang Xiaoqing had never been there once, and she didn't even have such an idea. She now had a military officer husband who loved her and a lovely son.

Her family is happy. She is afraid of seeing Zhan Xinyue having a bad life and feeling guilty, but she does not have the courage to take her home.

In the final analysis, most people are selfish, and Dongfang Xiaoqing has no determination to give up her current comfortable life for her daughter.

She wants to recognize her daughter now after weighing the pros and cons, because Zhan Xinyue is now the lover of Captain Sheng, whom Li Xiangqiang admires, and not just a helpless country girl.

What's more, Zhan Xinyue is on the island now. Her eyes are very similar to those of Dongfang Xiaoqing when she was young. Instead of setting off a bomb that may explode at any time, it is better to confess to her earlier while she is still charming and Li Xiangqiang still dotes on her.

In this way, you can also get a better reputation.

"Then what should I do? Wuuuuu..." Dongfang Xiaoqing couldn't stop crying in Li Xiangqiang's arms.

The most difficult thing for a hero is to be with a beautiful woman. Brigadier General Li was brave and invincible on the battlefield, but he was helpless when facing his younger and more darling wife. He thought for a while and said, "Why don't you take some time to cook some Hunan dishes, and ask Tunan and Xinyue to come over for dinner, and have a good talk at the dinner table. Please help to say a few good words for me."

"Yeah." Dongfang Xiaoqing burst into laughter. Having experienced the betrayal of her first love, she thought longer term than most women. Brigade Commander Li was almost five years old and would retire in a few years. An officer without real power would definitely not have an easy life as it was now.

But Sheng Tunan is only 25 years old this year. If he recognizes Zhan Xinyue, he is a legitimate son-in-law. Sheng Tunan is young and promising, and his ability is far superior to Li Xiangqiang. When he is older, he will definitely be promoted to brigade commander, division commander, army commander, or even higher positions. Dongfang Xiaoqing is her only mother, so she can benefit from it.

"It's the day after tomorrow, Sunday, you guys can have a day off, Guagua and Xiao don't have to go to kindergarten, so can we invite Tunan and his wife to have lunch? You can drink a little wine at noon and sober up in the afternoon, so it won't affect the training the next day." Zhan Xinyue's younger brother was present, and she could also play the emotional card.

"Okay, I'll listen to you." Li Xiangqiang leaned on the sofa. He was old and had drunk a lot of wine. He had just talked for such a long time and felt a little tired. He had to close his eyes and rest for a while.

Dongfang Xiaoqing immediately stood up, went behind the man, and massaged his temples and head.

Brigadier General Li patted his wife's well-maintained hands and sighed with satisfaction, "With a wife like this, what else could a husband ask for?"

As soon as Lao Li fell asleep, Sheng Tunan woke up. He tiptoed to the next room and saw that Zhan Xinyue was still sleeping. He then fetched water and took the clothes that he and Zhan Xinyue had changed at noon to the yard to wash.

He had promised himself before that he would take good care of Zhan Xinyue's hands. Washing machines were not yet popular, so clothes could only be washed by oneself, and Zhan Xinyue must not be allowed to do it by hand.

Sheng Tunan had strong hands. He put soap on the clothes and rubbed them back and forth on the washboard. After a while, the clothes in the basin were washed clean. Then he added water and started to clear the soap bubbles.

"Brother Tunan, why are you the one washing the clothes?" Yan Moli stood in the yard, looking through the iron gate at the scene inside the yard, frowning and asking unhappily, "Aren't you married already?"

"How can your lover let you wash clothes? If it's you, you can't bear to see a man wash a woman's clothes. Hey, you are a group leader, how can you wash women's underwear?"

Yan Moli was so angry that her face turned red. The iron gate was locked. She pushed and pushed but it wouldn't open. She was so anxious that she shouted in the yard.

"Brother Tunan, put the clothes aside and let 놖 come!"
