His eyes turned from fierce to gentle, and he looked at Lin Qingqing from top to bottom, with relief in his eyes as if he was looking at his own junior, and a smile appeared on his face as he nodded frequently.
The others were still confused. Why did Mr. Tong look at Lin Qingqing like that when he met her for the first time?
Grandma Song waved her hand and said, "Old man, what are you planning now?"
Old Master Tong chuckled, put his hands behind his back and said, "This girl is great. My family only has boys and no girls, so we just need a granddaughter."
No one understood the meaning of these words yet.
He then said to Mr. Cai, "Aren't you here to adopt your granddaughter? What gift did you bring?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Mr. Cai glared at him.
"I finally found an opportunity to have a quarrel with Old Man Song, but before we can even decide who's better, you come to ruin it."
Mr. Cai is now retired and living in the compound. His only pleasure is to quarrel with Grandpa Song. He can't win the argument with Grandpa Tong, and other people don't dare to quarrel with him. His only target is Grandpa Song.
He hadn't quarreled with Grandpa Song for three days, and Tian was just thinking of showing off his skills.
Old Master Song didn't understand what the two were talking about. He stood up and asked loudly, "What are you two talking about, you old bastards? What do you mean by granddaughter?"
Grandpa Cai turned around, pointed at Grandpa Tong and said, "The whole compound knows that our two families are getting married. Xiao Si will have his wedding in a few days, and I will be laughed at to death. I might as well adopt your granddaughter-in-law as my goddaughter and tell everyone that this marriage was arranged before. This way, both families will be embarrassed and the matter will be put behind us. When Old Tong heard about this, he also wanted to follow my example and adopt a goddaughter, like an old child. How can he adopt someone just because he wants to?"
His tone was full of disgust and contempt for Mr. Tong.
Goddaughter?
Everyone present was stunned.
This is pie in the sky.
With two founding generals as her godfathers and another founding general as her biological grandfather, Lin Qingqing will be able to walk around freely in the military compound, not just in the military districts across the country.
Lin Qingqing was stunned for a moment.
Something feels wrong, but I can't put my finger on what.
She glanced at Song Yiyuan, who nodded at her. He thought this was a good thing.
After hearing what Grandpa Cai said, Grandpa Tong became anxious. He looked at Grandpa Song and said, "My grandchildren are all boys. I already adopted a goddaughter a long time ago. Isn't this a ready-made one? Our families are now relatives. Besides, why can Old Cai adopt a goddaughter, but I can't? Am I not a decent person?"
As he spoke, he took out a rectangular box from his arms, then took out two boxes from his trouser pocket, and walked towards Lin Qingqing.
"Here, this is my gift, Qingqing granddaughter. Do you think my sincerity is enough?"
After he stuffed the three boxes into Lin Qingqing's arms, he took a few steps back, as if he was afraid that Lin Qingqing would return the things to him.
Mr. Cai also took out two boxes from his arms, walked a few steps to Lin Qingqing, and put them on top of Mr. Tong's box: "Don't look at the fact that I have fewer boxes, the things inside are guaranteed to be better than his."
He glanced at Old Man Tong angrily.
The two of them were competing with each other, both with determined looks on their faces. Grandpa Song had long seen through their little thoughts and wanted to adopt Lin Qingqing as his godson. He wanted to take advantage of the situation and made the plan.
Lao Cai is good at close combat, while Lao Tong is good at long-range attacks.
He knew these two old comrades well.
As soon as Old Cai came in, he used quarreling to delay time so that Old Tong could come out later to bring up the matter of adopting his granddaughter.
Then Lao Tong pretended to be angry again, and the two pretended to compete with each other and directly took out the things and gave them to Qingqing. By then, all the things had been collected, and Qingqing was too embarrassed to refuse.
It was done in one go, like a double act, and it would be impossible to detect it without decades of tacit understanding.
