"Old Su, how come your eyesight is still so poor after you've retired!"
"You're turning away such an excellent son-in-law!"
The crowd's comments, one after another, silenced Su Zhenguo.
If he still doesn't know whether it's true or false at this point, then he's truly wasted his life.
Su Zhenguo looked at the numerous generals with a shocked expression.
The shock on his face and the doubts in his heart increased greatly.
He knew about Yuan Yi's background; he was an orphan from an orphanage.
He was lucky enough to join an entertainment company before being sidelined.
His granddaughter offered to pay for his release from bondage, but he firmly refused.
He wasted three years; otherwise, his achievements in the entertainment industry would probably have been much greater.
This is something that makes him very satisfied: despite his humble origins, he has a strong backbone and integrity.
What happened next seemed a bit surreal to him.
After singing a few revolutionary songs, he was directly admitted to the performing arts troupe, and his whereabouts after that became a mystery.
All he knew was that he went on a visit with the cultural troupe; he knew nothing else.
After all, he's retired now, unlike when he was in office.
The next time I heard Suya talk about it, she had joined the army.
Suya didn't elaborate on the specific details.
His willingness to serve his country and join the army earned him even more points.
They were just waiting for Su Ya to formally come to their home for a meeting before they would agree to their marriage.
Who knew that our first meeting would give me such a shock.
Air Force Lieutenant Colonel.
This rank is enough to serve as a deputy regimental commander in any unit.
When have we ever seen such a young lieutenant colonel?
In his mind, even if Yuan Yi was specially recruited into the army, he would only be a junior officer.
It's been upgraded to a whole new level, it looks fake no matter how you look at it.
He immediately assumed that Yuan Yi was afraid his family would look down on him.
That's why what happened next occurred.
He wasn't really against the two of them; he just wanted Yuan Yi to settle down.
He hadn't expected the guard to be so stubborn as to call the police.
Now that things have come to this point, he's really starting to lose face.
Seeing so many generals come to his door, Su Zhenguo blushed.
"Old Su, won't you invite us in for a seat?"
Upon hearing Commander Hou Shengbing's words, Su Zhenguo quickly made a gesture of invitation.
He retired early due to health reasons, and he and Hou Shengbing were in the same military branch.
When he was a lieutenant general and deputy commander, Hou Shengbing was a general and regional commander.
He retired many years ago, and he's already become a commander of an army.
Although Zhao Kaihua and Ji Yongfeng are not in the same military branch.
However, they had all met before, not to mention Zhong Cheng, who had been working at the General Political Department of the PLA.
The arrival of the group of generals shocked not only Su Zhenguo.
At this moment, Su's mother, the old lady and others were even more surprised to see four generals, two lieutenant generals and two major generals.
"Chen Jin, pour the tea."
Su Zhenguo shouted to his mother.
"Okay, Dad."
Chen Jin pulled Su Ya aside to inquire about the situation and asked her for help.
Su Zhenguo and his wife stayed in the living room with everyone.
"What are you all doing here?" Su Zhenguo asked again, looking at the crowd.
Hou Shengbing, Ji Yongfeng, Zhao Kaihua, and Zhong Cheng exchanged glances before Zhong Cheng spoke.
"Old Su, Yuan Yi is my soldier."
"Most of the information is currently confidential. All you need to know is that everything he obtained is what he was entitled to."
“His military rank was specially approved by JW, and his documents and certificates were also specially approved.”
Hearing Zhong Cheng's words, the look of shock on Su Zhenguo's face never faded.
"Special approval from JW".
These four simple words contain a profound meaning.
You should know that not just anyone can get JW's special approval.
He opened his mouth, wanting to ask what merit he, an orphan without parents, had to deserve such high regard from above.
Then I thought about it and decided against it.
They already said it's confidential, so you won't get anything out of them by asking.
Besides, he's family, after all.
The eldest son's family only has one daughter, Su Ya, while the second and third sons' families have sons who are only teenagers.
"Little Yuan, it was just me being prejudiced."
"I apologize to you."
As Su Zhenguo spoke, he stood up and bowed to Yuan Yi.
Yuan Yi immediately stepped aside.
He also understood Grandpa Su, who had been a soldier his whole life.
For him, this profession was sacred and inviolable.
Seeing that Old Master Su was like this, none of the generals stopped him.
To them, Grandpa Su was a soldier.
Soldiers must admit their mistakes.
Yuan Yi's current importance and achievements deserve Su Zhenguo's bow.
"Alright."
As the highest-ranking leader here, Zhong Cheng simply dismissed the matter.
It wasn't a big deal to begin with; it was just a misunderstanding caused by a difference in cognitive information.
"Old Su, today is a special day!"
"You must bring out your treasured possessions for everyone to taste!"
After the awkward scene just now, Su Zhenguo was at a loss as to how to face everyone.
After hearing Hou Shengbing's words, he spoke up immediately.
"Of course."
He turned directly to Old Mrs. Su and said, "Old woman, go and get those two jars of thirty-year-old wine that I've been hiding!"
"Today is the first time Yuan Yi and Xiao Ya have come to visit."
