Meanwhile, on the other side!
With no outsiders around, Old Xu, who was faking illness, was chased and beaten by his father!
Pfft, what a poor child!
The old lady came a few days ago and got beaten up; today her father came and was chased and beaten up again...
He wanted to dodge, but the current Xu is not the child he used to be, and he could not easily dodge. However, he still felt guilty, so he could only let his father vent his anger by sacrificing himself. At the same time, it could also prove that his father was in good health!
After watching for a while, the old lady saw that it was about time, and that her own brat had been beaten several times, so she couldn't bear to watch any longer.
"Stop hitting! Stop hitting! Let's get down to business!"
Old Xu was finally spared a beating and obediently shrank to sit on the other side. However, Old Xu's father didn't forget to glare fiercely at his son one last time. Then he smiled and looked at the old lady next to him:
"Alright, let's get down to business!"
He was so gentle, as if he hadn't been the one who had just committed the crime!
"Old man, did I just hear you call out 'Dan'?" The old lady had wanted to ask this question for a long time, and it was truly remarkable that she had waited until now!
Old Man Xu sat on the stool, a smug look on his face: "That's Dan! This kid is really good. He's already a regimental commander at such a young age. He's worthy of being a member of the Xu family!"
It seems that Old Man Xu didn't understand the meaning behind the old lady's words!
"Hey, old man, are you sure you haven't mistaken someone for someone else? The person's surname is Gao, not Gu. And I already asked if they knew Auntie, but the child doesn't know her."
Forehead?
"How is that possible?" Old Man Xu frowned a few times, as if he had thought of something!
"Would I lie to you? Otherwise, ask Yue Zhang; he was there too!"
Old Xu's questioning gaze immediately swept to his son beside him: "Is your mother's case true?" he asked.
Xu Yuezhang nodded: "That's exactly what the commander answered back then! Dad, you always called the commander 'Dan' before?" he asked.
"Um!"
Did he respond to you?
"Isn't that obvious?!" Old Man Xu rolled his eyes several times!
Xu Yuezhang was conflicted at this moment: was the regimental commander really her brother from back then?
"Dad, our regimental commander's surname is Gao, and his given name is Dan. As an elder, it's perfectly acceptable for you to call him Dan!"
Upon hearing this, both the old lady and Mr. Xu were stunned!
That seems to make sense!
"No, no, no, that's Dan! He's your aunt's child. I asked him if he's still as mischievous as he used to be. He said he was a few years ago, but he's matured these past few years!" Old Man Xu exclaimed excitedly.
"Alright, alright, that's good. Dad, calm down, calm down!" If this old man does something because he gets agitated, it would be a loss!
The old lady chimed in, "Why are you so agitated at your age? If so, we need to find out why that child doesn't recognize us!"
That's spot on, hitting the nail on the head!
Old Man Xu took a few deep breaths to calm down: "That's right, the child left suddenly back then and still doesn't recognize us. It seems that something happened that we don't know about. We must find out the reason!"
In the end, he displayed the authority of a division commander!
The old lady angrily cursed a few times, and in the end, she couldn't help but start to shed tears: "What could it be? It must be that family causing trouble again. It's just that we have such a pitiful child, Dan!"
