Chapter 235 Nine True and One False
"I hope that my grandfather can get my custody. You can use the application I submitted to the Marriage Court as a bargaining chip to negotiate with him. As long as he gives up the custody, I will immediately withdraw the application and let him get what he wants."
Ripple expressed his meaning clearly.
"Grandfather knows what to do. You don't need to worry about it."
General Du made the final decision.
After talking about the original body, Lianyi asked about her mother Dui:
"In my impression, my mother is a very gentle person. When Wu Yishan was busy with work, my mother was always there to accompany me. She always gave me the best. Ian is the most advanced intelligent computer that my mother customized for me. Its core components are all military-grade."
Having said that, Lianyi raised her hand and stroked her wrist, then continued:
"As far as I can remember, mother didn't come to grandfather's place very often. Was it because you didn't agree with mother marrying Wu Yishan? Or was there another reason?"
"Hey! Come to think of it, we are also responsible for this."
The old lady sighed and continued:
"Your mother is my youngest daughter. When I was pregnant with her, I was no longer suitable for childbirth. But she was also a life. Your grandfather and I insisted on giving birth to her. Your mother was born without any genetic defects, but her body was a little weak.
Before she came of age, we had always carefully raised her and given her the best care. At this time, General Wu came to our house, hoping to arrange a marriage between Wu Yishan and Du Yi.
As they were both five great generals, they were a good match. Moreover, General Wu brought Wu Yishan with him. The two young men met in private, and your mother had a good impression of Wu Yishan, so the matter was settled.
Unfortunately, not long after, the Wu family was intercepted by space pirates while on vacation on a spaceship. No one returned alive, and only Wu Yishan was left in the Wu family. Because he was taking an officer promotion assessment at the time, he did not go on vacation with them.
For a time, the Wu family was leaderless, and those who were related to the Wu family wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to bite off a piece of meat. At this time, Wu Yishan proposed to marry Du Yi in order to get some help. We disagreed at the time, but Du Yi insisted on fulfilling the marriage contract.
We really couldn't persuade her, so we agreed to the marriage, but the wedding was held in a hurry. Even so, Wu Yishan got help and got out of the predicament. He was able to grow into a general and take over the Fifth Army in full, and we also contributed to this.
But since you were born, Dui's health has been getting worse. In addition, this time the test showed that you have a useless physique, so she has been reluctant to part with sex, thinking that it is her poor health that has dragged you down. She has contacted us less and less, and every time she reports good news, she only reports bad news.
But I am her mother, and I can see that she may have had feelings for Wu Yishan at the beginning, but I don't know since when, there was only mutual respect between the two of them, without any love, and after that she only came back once a year, always accompanied by Wu Yishan.
I asked her the reason several times, and she just smiled and said everything was fine. She wouldn't say anything else until she suddenly became critically ill. When we rushed over, we only had time to see her for the last time. Wu Yishan didn't even make it."
After the old lady finished speaking, she wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes.
After Lianyi heard this, she thought for a moment before saying:
"Grandma, I think there must be a reason why my mother didn't return to the Du family, but she never mentioned it to me."
"It's a pity that we were a step too late. She didn't leave any words behind."
It seems that things are more difficult than she thought, but she will find the answers one by one.
The three generations of grandparents and grandchildren missed lunch because of their chat. It was only until the housekeeper reminded them that they went to eat.
Looking at the table full of food, Lianyi smiled and thanked him. The butler must have received instructions from General Du, otherwise he would not have prepared such a sumptuous meal.
Half an hour later, Lianyi swallowed the last piece of steak. Only empty bowls and plates were left on the table. She also felt a little full. She didn't know how her previous self had managed to survive.
The two old men looked at each other, becoming even more certain that their grandson was being plotted against. A hint of annoyance flashed in their eyes, but they did not show it.
"Lian Yi, are you full? If not, I'll ask the butler to prepare some more for you."
"Thank you, Grandma. This is a very rich meal. I am very full."
Afterwards, Lianyi was sent by the old general to rest.
After Lianyi left, General Du's face darkened, and he called the butler and asked:
"What are the results of the investigation into the attack on General Wu's residence?"
"There is no substantial discovery so far. The entire mansion was bombed into ruins. Only the housekeeper Wu died on the spot. The rest of the mansion was equipped with intelligent robots. The loss is still quite large."
"I understand. Let me know if there is any progress."
"Yes, sir!"
"Prepare the items on this list as soon as possible and send them to Lianyi's room. He will need them soon."
General Du sent the list to the butler. All of the items on the list were high-end equipment, but they were all available on the market. Only the materials and equipment involving military use were passed on to his eldest son, who was in charge of the process.
On the other side, Xue Wenjing and Wu Lianbo were waiting for good news from the Wu family, especially Wu Lianbo. As soon as he bound to the system, the system gave him a big gift.
In a test not long ago, the system improved his qualifications and gave him S-level mental power. The other party also promised that as long as he completed the tasks he issued, there would be more and better rewards in the future. Becoming the number one in the United Empire would no longer be a dream.
Having tasted the sweetness, Wu Lianbo also became ambitious. Under the instructions of the system, he appeared in front of Du Yi and aggravated the other party's condition. After Du Yi's death, he instigated his mother to find Wu Yishan.
Because of the secret help from his grandfather, Butler Wu, he has suppressed Wu Lianyi's talent growth in accordance with the system's requirements. Things are proceeding step by step according to plan, and he is also waiting for the day when he will become a master.
But when he heard the news that General Wu's mansion was attacked and turned into ruins in the morning, and that Butler Wu was killed on the spot, he was also stunned. He did not expect that the general's mansion would be attacked. This made him a little scared. Then he immediately ran to ask Xue Wenjing:
"Mom, is Wu Lianyi dead?"
This is the person that the system has ordered to be suppressed. The system says that this person has very good luck. If the system can get in close contact with him, the system can transfer the other person's good luck to him. After all, they are half-brothers.
"No news for now. Even if that idiot died, he wouldn't be on the news right now. It's a pity that your grandfather is gone like this."
Xue Wenjing said angrily.
"Have you contacted your father?"
"I can't get through. I guess he's dealing with this matter. We need to stay calm and not disturb him at this time."
Lianbo nodded after hearing this.
