The gaze pierced through the crack and fell upon him. Yan Xiaonan saw the person clearly, racked his brain, and realized he didn't recognize him. He then asked Baoguo in front of him, "Baoguo, whose office is the third window from the left on the second floor?"
Without hesitation, Bao Guo replied, "It's Major General Liu Changhe's office."
Liu Changhe? I don't know him. Why is he staring at me so fiercely? Yan Xiaonan didn't understand.
“Liu Changhe is Liu Decai’s father.” Bao Guo saw Yan Xiaonan’s somewhat confused look in the rearview mirror and quickly explained.
Oh, no wonder. As soon as I got home last night, Grandma told me all about Liu Decai's family coming to visit. I'm so grateful for my aunt's kindness. If my aunt hadn't been there that day, my parents would definitely have suffered.
Putting everything else aside, just look at my dad's hot temper and his bad habit of resorting to violence without saying a word. It might work in Mushroom Village, but it could easily backfire in the capital.
And Liu Changhe also received a severe scolding from Grandpa Xue. It is the father's fault if the son is not taught. It is one thing for Liu Decai to be willful and reckless, but it is unacceptable for him to bully others by abusing his power, especially since he was bullying his own son-in-law's niece. That is even more intolerable.
Yan Xiaonan memorized Liu Changhe's somewhat distorted face and gloomy eyes. She knew she had to be careful when she encountered him in the future and not give herself away, or she would be in big trouble.
Grandma Yan pretended to be curious and looked around, but she couldn't see the person behind the curtain at all. She could only hold Yan Xiaonan's hand tightly, feeling very worried. Her precious child was having such a hard time. If being a little fairy required so much effort, she would rather go hungry than let her child be a fairy.
As Liu Changhe watched the car drive away, he said to the guard behind him, "Go and find out what Yan Daqiang's mother and niece are doing here."
"Yes." The sound of a door closing came from behind.
Liu Changhe sat wearily on the sofa, closing his eyes to rest. This Yan Xiaonan was indeed incredibly beautiful. No wonder his son was so distracted and absent-minded all day long. But how could he marry such a woman into the family? Wasn't he afraid of ruining the family's reputation?
When he got back, he warned that little rascal Liu Decai that he should marry a virtuous wife, not just one who looks good on the outside. He reminded him that poisonous mushrooms often look very nice, but once you eat them, you'll know how deadly they can be.
A moment later, the guard's voice came from behind him, "Report!"
"Reporting to General Liu, I can't get close to Lieutenant General Xue's office. Lieutenant General Xue's bodyguards are always standing at the door, and no one dares to go over to ask for information."
Such tight security... there must be a secret. What could it be? Liu Changhe waved his hand, dismissing the guards, but then fell into deep thought.
If you were Yan Daqiang, and your niece was set up on a blind date, what would you do?
First of all, I would definitely congratulate my niece. Her husband's family is that of a major general. What's wrong with marrying into such a good family? At least she'll be able to eat and dress well. Secondly, I might even offer her some advice on how to get a higher dowry.
Thinking this through, Liu Changhe felt reassured. "So that's how it is. Yan Daqiang, I really overestimated you. You want your niece to come into my family? Bah, no way."
However, I definitely need to make things clear to this brat at home, lest he fall for their sweet talk and get caught in their trap.
Thinking of this, Liu Changhe couldn't sit still any longer. He got up, picked up his hat, put it on, left the office, called his bodyguard, and drove away.
In another office, Hu Dazhuang listened to his bodyguard's report: "Reporting to the deputy general, Yan Daqiang's mother and niece just left, and Liu Changhe sent his bodyguard to inquire about the situation, but unfortunately he couldn't find out anything. Then Liu Changhe left the office, and judging from the direction of his car, he should be heading back to the garrison."
Hu Dazhuang nodded. His little daughter had done a great job this time. However, only that stupid woman from Liu Changhe's family would be fooled. Anyone else would use their brains.
By the way, the little girl ruined his daughter-in-law's dowry. Why doesn't Yan Daqiang come to talk to me about compensation? Maybe I should go talk to him and try to build a relationship with him.
Hu Dazhuang started looking for cigarettes in the office; Yan Daqiang's nicotine addiction was quite strong, and he had to get some.
Bao Guo drove to the entrance of the courtyard house, where lively voices came from inside. There were voices from Liu Jin, Ye Chen'er, Yan Aidang, and of course, the loudest voice was from Xue Ying.
When Grandma Yan heard these sounds, a smile appeared on her face. This was what a home should be like, the home she wanted most.
The sound of the car braking startled the people inside. Liu Jin was the first to jump out: "Great-Grandma, Auntie, you're back! I missed you so much!"
This drama queen is putting on her act again. Yan Xiaonan got out of the car with a smile, turned around and helped her grandmother out of the car. As Grandma Yan got out of the car, she said to Baoguo, "Baobao, have a cup of malted milk powder when you get home before you leave."
Bao Guo felt a warmth in his heart, but he shook his head: "Grandma, the commander has an urgent mission here, I need to go back and keep an eye on things."
Hearing that it was her eldest son who was busy, Grandma Yan didn't insist. Cuihua ran out from inside and handed Baoguo a small basket: "This is a package. Inside are some snacks that you two brothers like to eat. Take it with you."
Baoguo quickly took the basket: "Thank you, Auntie. Your pastries are unparalleled."
Cuihua smiled and said, "Hurry back and come back to get it after you've finished eating."
"Oh, thank you, Auntie." Baoguo carefully put the basket down, turned the car around, and drove back to the military region.
The drama queen Liu Jin helped his aunt with one hand and his great-grandmother with the other as they walked home, talking incessantly about school. As soon as they stepped into the courtyard, Liu Jin performed a somersault for everyone, flipping from the front gate all the way to the door of the north room. He did more than a dozen somersaults in a row, and his breathing was still steady.
It's truly remarkable how much progress the little one has made in just one week.
Xue Ying smiled broadly. Liu Jin had done a great job, and she was proud of him too. She picked up a mung bean cake from the table and handed it to Liu Jin, saying, "Good boy, come on, have some mung bean cake."
Liu Jin shook his head, saying that Teacher Tan was too fat and needed to lose weight.
Everyone~
Yan Aidang said somewhat jealously, "Liu Jin, you don't know how lucky you are. My mom has never given me any good food except when she's fighting me for it. And you're still trying to lose weight? You're such a fool."
Xue Ying paused in her eating of mung bean cake, looking at Ai Dang suspiciously. "Is your mother really that ruthless?"
Yan Ai Dang nodded firmly.
Xue Ying quickly picked up a piece of mung bean cake and handed it to Yan Aidang: "Son, your mom is giving you some mung bean cake."
Yan Aidang took a step back, looking nervous, and said, "Mom, what are you trying to do? Please don't try to sweet-talk me."
