Chapter 399
Next to the yard, Guo Xiaomao and Guo Wenjing were standing on the stepping stones, stealthily lying on the wall.
"Grandma, there's no sound. Did Grandma Li beat someone to death?"
"Why can't you just talk it out? Hitting someone is against the law. I heard Qingci say last time that this is called, domestic violence!"
Guo Xiaomao glared at Guo Wenjing with a look of frustration on his face. "I told you to lie down here and watch, not to reason with me!"
"You heard what your grandmother Li and the old man said just now. Was it useful?"
Guo Wenjing shook her head. "It's useless."
"Then take a look again. After the beating, did it work?"
Guo Wenjing nodded, "It worked."
Guo Xiaomao taught, "In this family, either the east wind prevails over the west wind, or the west wind prevails over the east wind."
"You, you should learn something. With your soft temper that can't even be beaten with three sticks, you still want to enter the Su family. How can I feel at ease with you?"
"I'm telling you, if you don't fully learn the essence of your Grandma Li, don't expect me to agree with you."
Guo Wenjing's expression almost lost control, "Grandma, this, this is not good..."
Guo Xiaomao raised his finger in dissatisfaction and tapped Guo Wenjing's forehead. "This is their family tradition. Do you understand family tradition?"
"Can't the family tradition be broken just because he married you, his granddaughter-in-law?"
"From today on, be brave and start practicing. Otherwise, just listen to me and go on another blind date."
Guo Wenjing's scalp tightened. "Grandma, no, no, I want to practice, but how can I practice? I, I don't know how to fight..."
"How do you practice? It's not easy. Starting tomorrow, get up early every day and follow your Grandma Li to practice that beastly trick."
"After you're done, run around the alley a few times. I'm going to ask your Uncle Ada to make me a wooden man. From now on, when you get home from get off work, hold some wood in the yard and chop it for an hour before you even come in!"
"Didn't your Grandma Li always say that simple things, if done repeatedly, will lead to perfection?"
"I'm telling you, you don't have any brothers or parents to back you up. No matter who you are, you can change. You might look fine now, but then your heart will turn crooked and you'll be left with nothing to show for it."
"So, as a woman, the most basic thing is to be able to protect yourself. Even if you can't beat someone in a fight, you can at least outrun them, right?"
"You said that when your mother and I were in our hometown, if I hadn't risked my life, would I have been able to bring your mother out? She would have been eaten to the bone by your mother's blood-sucking uncles."
"Look at your Grandma Li. You know her family's situation. If she hadn't been so strong, how could she and her children and grandchildren survive in Kyoto? If it were someone else, they would just cry and whine and be driven back to the remote countryside to dig dirt eight hundred years ago. How could your Uncle Su still study abroad and become a doctor? How could he even marry a daughter from a scholarly family like your aunt? How could Su Jindong join the army?"
"Look, your Grandma Li just tried to reason with Grandpa Su, but did she win? Her voice wasn't even as loud as his. Let me tell you, if Su Jindong dares to bully you or fight you in the future, you'll give him a big slap in the face."
Under her grandmother's constant brainwashing, Guo Wenjing's gaze gradually became firm.
She likes Brother Jin Dong and she must marry him, so she must work hard to learn from Grandma Li and not let the Su family's family tradition be broken in her hands.
Okay, she will go to Grandma Li tomorrow morning to become her apprentice and learn those beastly tricks.
Inside the house, Li Yue Niang was holding a bottle with a loving look on her face and applying safflower oil to the big bump on Su Yi's head.
"Look at you, it's been decades, why haven't you changed your temper? You have to make me angry and force me to take action?"
"Tear~, hey hey hey, be gentle, be gentle..." Su Yi's tears were about to come out.
"Oh, I'll be gentler, gentler. Ouch, it's so tragic. It makes me feel sad just looking at it."
"It's okay. If anyone asks, just say you're old and your eyes are blurry, and you accidentally bumped your head into the door frame."
"Well, when we get back, hurry over to the Hu family, okay?"
"Hurry up and sort out the affairs of my Changqing and Weihua. It would be best if they could return to their original units."
"My Yi'er is so capable. This kind of thing can be solved with just a word from you. You are the pillar of our Su family and the most promising person."
"Ever since I was little, I've known you were amazing. You're the dragon or the bird that people talk about. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been here for so many years..."
Half an hour later, Su Yi lowered his hat and left Liuhuai Lane in a heroic and high-spirited manner.
Li Yue Niang was humming a little tune while cleaning the house, and she was in a very happy mood.
How could she not be happy? Her eldest son and daughter-in-law were coming home, and their family would be reunited.
On the other side, Song Jingzhou hurried back to the military camp and ran towards Su Qingci's dormitory.
As soon as I ran downstairs, I met Shang Yuping who was coming back from his shift with documents in his arms.
"Brother Song, are you here to see me?" Shang Yuping was very excited. This was the first time Song Jingzhou came to see him.
Song Jingzhou was in a good mood, and rarely had a sullen face. "Comrade Shang, could you please call Comrade Su down for me?"
The smile on Shang Yuping's face froze. "Oh, oh, Comrade Su is back?"
"I, I'll go up and take a look."
"Okay, thank you."
Shang Yuping turned around, the smile on his face disappeared, and he stomped his feet heavily as he went up the stairs.
After a while, she ran down happily like a bird returning to its nest.
"Brother Song, Comrade Su hasn't come back yet. Who told you she's back?"
"There's no one in the dormitory. I also asked my roommates, and they all said they hadn't seen Comrade Su."
Seeing that Shang Yuping didn't seem to be lying, Song Jingzhou's smile slowly faded. "Oh, thank you. I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."
"Hey~, Brother Song, Brother Song~"
Seeing that the other party left without looking back, Shang Yuping was so angry that she kept stamping her feet on the spot.
What a blockhead, not understanding romance at all.
After leaving the camp, Song Jingzhou went to his general equipment department. Since Su Qingci did not go home or return to the dormitory, she must have come to find him.
Thinking that Su Qingci was eager to find him as soon as she came back, Song Jingzhou couldn't help but smile sweetly.
Even the wind blowing on his face could feel his impatience.
The sky darkened, and the emotions on Song Jingzhou's face were also taken away.
Su Qingci didn’t come back?
Why did Wang Zhongru, who was in charge of the case, come back?
This black-hearted guy left his men outside to suffer. As a commander, he knew it early...
Song Jingzhou suppressed his uneasiness and decided to go find him and have a good talk tomorrow.
