Mrs. Tang also closed her eyes, her mind racing, trying to figure out the best angle to approach the situation.
Wu Jin and Duo Duo went to play at the furniture factory during their holiday. Southwest pointed to the staff dormitory building that was under construction.
"Duoduo, five and a half jin, this time next year, we will live inside."
"Oh, I can live in a new house now!" Duoduo exclaimed happily.
Wu Jin hesitated: "Dad, I don't want to live here. I want to live at Grandma's house."
Southwest thought Wu Jinban was worried that there wouldn't be enough room, so he said with a smile, "Dad bought a two-bedroom apartment. You and Duoduo will share a room, and Dad will have a room."
Wu Jinban became even more hesitant, staring at his fingers without saying a word, but his unwillingness was very obvious.
Southwest's heart sank. Could it be that this child is materialistic and disdains the poor? This won't do; he needs to be properly disciplined.
“Five and a half catties, the courtyard house doesn’t belong to your grandparents, it belongs to your aunt. If your aunt gets married and has children, the house will belong to her children.”
Wu Jinban remained silent, but his expression became inexplicable. Southwest was saddened; this child simply didn't like to talk, and no one knew what he was thinking.
Looking at the time, it was time for lunch, so I pulled Wu Jinban and Duo Duo toward the cafeteria.
Shen Shaohua happened to be at the furniture factory looking for Shen Shaomin. He saw the two children and liked them very much. He patted Wu Jinban's head and said, "Wu Jinban, why don't you greet people?"
Wu Jinban looked up, thought for a moment, and calmly greeted, "Hello, Aunt Chen."
Shen Shaohua was startled by Wu Jinban's address of "Aunt Shen," and unconsciously touched his face, wondering if he looked that old.
Southwest found it amusing to see Shen Shaohua's devastated expression: "You're not old yet, but you'd better get married soon, or you'll really get old."
Shen Shaohua looked at Yan Xinan thoughtfully: "Factory Director, how is your brother now?"
My younger brother, Bei Nan, Xin Nan, paused for a moment, glanced at Shen Shaohua, and said, "My brother probably won't be back for a long time."
Shen Shaohua nodded. She knew that several people from the North and South had been deported, as her own father had described it vividly.
Ye Ren was almost assassinated, and his father was furious. Was that assassin incredibly audacious or arrogant? Did he think he was dead?
With me here, you want to assassinate Ye Ren? How stupid! You're just blindly following the crowd, that's incredibly stupid.
Luckily, Ye Chenming wasn't there, otherwise he would have definitely glared at her like a knife.
Damn it, my dad's been sleeping in his coffin for ages. Luckily, I have Bao by my side.
Ye Ren was still somewhat confused when he was surrounded by the crowd that day, until the assassin was captured, at which point he came to his senses.
He wondered how his son knew there was a killer at the scene, with so many people around, and the person hiding in a corner, so no one noticed.
Ye Chenming only said three words, "Yan Xiaonan." Ye Ren understood; people with superpowers are truly remarkable.
However, Chenming reacted too quickly. Yan Xiaonan only said that she was feeling flustered, and Ye Chenming took action within a second.
Then, pressing his advantage, he made Nan Nan pinpoint the killer, thus ensuring his own safety.
It seems the enemy hidden inside is also getting anxious. We need to find him as soon as possible, otherwise I still won't escape death.
"Auntie, what are they doing over there?" Wu Jinban asked, shaking Shen Shaohua's hand.
Shen Shaohua's train of thought was interrupted by Wu Jinban. Following Wu Jinban's hand, he looked over and saw that it was the construction site of the staff building.
"They're building staff dormitories there. Your dad bought a big house. Once it's finished, Wu Jin and a half will be able to move in."
Wu Jin lowered his eyes; it really was about building a house.
A rank conferment ceremony is being held at the garrison location. This time, one senior colonel will be promoted to major general, one major general to lieutenant general, and one lieutenant general to general.
The promotion from senior colonel to major general is a qualitative leap, while the promotion from lieutenant general to general is a qualitative leap. Therefore, this conference was extremely grand and the assessment was extremely rigorous.
One of the leaders on the awarding platform stood up and invited Comrade Xue Honggen to come up to the stage.
Xue Honggen stood tall and proud in the center of the stage, listening to the leaders recount the contributions he had made over the years.
For example, they have been steadfastly guarding the borders of the motherland for many years; they have solved the cotton problem in the military and also solved part of the food problem; and they have discovered many talented people.
After rambling on for quite a while, he finally said the last sentence: "He is hereby awarded the rank of General by Comrade Xue Honggen."
Thunderous applause erupted from the audience. General, the ultimate dream of countless good soldiers who aspired to become marshals.
Look at Comrade Xue Honggen, over fifty years old, with white hair, he was awarded such a high honor. Even if he were to fall now, it would be worth it.
Hu Dazhuang felt reassured. Originally, Yan Daqiang and Liu Changhe were competing for the rank of lieutenant general, which was much more prestigious than major general.
But Liu Changhe no longer has a chance to compete, and unexpectedly, Yan Daqiang didn't seem to be thinking of competing for the position either.
In this era, rewards are based on merit. Yan Daqiang certainly did not have the same level of hard work and merit as Xue Honggen, so it was the right thing for him to give up the competition.
If Xue Honggen goes up there, as long as he has a breath left, Yan Daqiang will definitely not lose.
Moreover, if Ye Ren's research succeeds, Yan Daqiang's future will be even brighter.
Everyone knows that Yan Daqiang's only niece is Ye Ren's future granddaughter-in-law, and this Yan Xiaonan is the top choice for a wife in the hearts of all the unmarried men here.
Even Liu Changhe, that lecherous son, still holds a grudge. He was beaten so badly by Ye Chenming, yet he still hasn't learned his lesson.
It's a pity my son got married so early; otherwise, perhaps I could have had a chance.
Liu Changhe's face was ashen. Although the army had not demoted him, Xue Honggen's promotion meant his future would be much more difficult.
My abilities are indeed lacking; I'm not much better than Yan Daqiang, let alone Hu Dazhuang.
By the way, that Hu Dazhuang is eyeing my position as major general, and now every position is already filled.
He glanced at Hu Dazhuang out of the corner of his eye, and sure enough, this guy was even more excited than Yan Daqiang, as if he were the one who had been awarded the rank of general.
A pang of pain shot through his heart, a sweet taste rose in his throat, and he coughed up a mouthful of blood on the spot. Hu Dazhuang was overjoyed when he saw this; another major general's position might be vacant.
Yan Daqiang's eyes flashed, and he was about to make a move when Liu Changhe's bodyguard rushed over and helped Liu Changhe out.
What a clever guard! What's his name? I think it's Feng something-or-other.
Xue Honggen on the stage watched carefully, and some doubts arose in his mind. He quickly glanced at his bodyguard, Xiao He.
Xiaohe left quietly, but Baomin was even faster. By the time Feng Jinchao made his move, he was already standing at the door.
