Chapter 858: Veteran Generals Who Calmed Children's Crying
So, after running all the way here with great effort and half of her clothes wet, Qiao Zijin finally had to return empty-handed.
As soon as Qiao Zijin left, the news of her visit reached Liesheng's ears.
Zhai Sheng had long guessed that someone like Qiao Zijin would never give up. Normally, she couldn't bear to see Qiao Nan doing well, but when Qiao Nan really got well and he could take advantage of her, Qiao Zijin would definitely not let her go.
Therefore, Qiao Zijin was the one who received special "care" from Zhai Sheng.
If it was someone else who came today, the guard might have gone in to ask, but when they heard it was Qiao Zijin, the older sister of one of the newcomers, the guard stopped Qiao Zijin without saying a word.
Zhai Sheng was sure that in the compound, Qiao Zijin, at her age, still had some dignity and would not do something as shameless as Ding Jiayi.
How could Zhai Sheng let a mere girl like Qiao Zijin ruin the engagement ceremony that he had waited so long for?
"Thank you, thank you."
As the head of the Zhai family, Zhai Hua has been busy coming and going, even busier than Zhai Sheng, the engaged man.
Zhai Hua is already busy enough, but there is one person who continues to cause trouble for him.
"Hello? I'm not telling you. My family is busy today, so it's inconvenient for you to come." Zhai Hua had a headache when he received the call from Wei De: "I've said this a hundred times. If my family accepts you, there will definitely be a place for you today. But there's no problem. I asked you to come now. Do you want to piss off my mom or my grandpa?"
"But I am your partner, and we have been in love for several years, right? You can't always let me be the one you hide from the public, right?" Wei De was anxious. The people who went to Zhai's house today were all big shots with brains. They were old leaders, not old leaders, but old comrades-in-arms of the old man of the Zhai family, and their identities were very unusual.
In fact, until now, Wei De still dreams of returning to the army, continuing to serve in the army, and being promoted to the commander of the regiment.
When Wei De was a child, his family was poor and could not afford to let him study too much. Wei De himself had a great interest in being a soldier, so after graduating from school, he joined the army directly.
The fact that the Zhai family members did not appreciate him only proved that they were not the ones who could recognize this talented horse.
The Zhai family is not his mentor, but others may not be his mentor either.
As long as there is a chance, he still wants to return to the army and continue to be a soldier, rather than doing business and being completely at the mercy of a few ghosts without being able to make any decisions on his own.
When it comes to doing business, Wei De is a complete layman. It's not something you can learn just by wanting to.
Thanks to Zhai Hua's kindness, he had never schemed against Wei De. Whenever he did business with Wei De, he could guarantee that Wei De would make some money.
This is actually the same situation and the same principle as when Wei De insisted on following Zhai Sheng into the army in order to gain credit behind Zhai Sheng.
It's just that others do it, and Wei De picks up the ready-made school
The difference is that what he really wants is military merit, but now others are taking him to gain money, and Wei De thinks the money is not worth it and is not what he wants most.
"Now you know you're in a hurry. What have you done before? I can't do it, I just can't do it!" Zhai Hua also got angry: "Last time when I was in the army, I talked on the phone and everything was fine. You need to perform well and win our family's recognition. It's only been a few days, and you've forgotten what you said. You haven't performed well yet, and you want to take shortcuts again?"
"..." Wei De denied it, "I didn't mean to take shortcuts. I just value my relationship with you and treat Captain Zhai as my brother-in-law. My brother-in-law is getting engaged, so of course I, as his brother-in-law, have to show my blessing."
"You value me so much, why don't you care whether I'm happy or not? If you really want to come, fine, I won't stop you, but I can't bring you in. If you have the ability, come in by yourself!" With a "click", Zhai Hua hung up the phone angrily.
Zhai Hua is not a fool. Wei De first insisted on going to pick up his grandfather, and now he is insisting on coming to drink the wedding wine. He is not really coming just for her and the Zhai family, he is coming for the uncles and aunts at the tables outside.
It was precisely because he knew this that Zhai Hua was even more unhappy.
No wonder my parents look down on Wei De. Even my grandfather, after hearing about Wei De once, was still dissatisfied with him, saying he was too utilitarian.
Especially when Wei De just said that he regarded Zhai Sheng as his brother-in-law, Zhai Hua almost wanted to spit back. Would Zhai Sheng be willing to regard him as his brother-in-law?
This method is really not just about flattering yourself.
After hanging up the conversation, Zhai Hua put away his anger and went out again to entertain the guests who came to offer their blessings.
"Congratulations, Old Zhai. In the blink of an eye, you now have a grandson's wife. The baby is growing up beautifully."
"You're already engaged, what's the point of having a baby?" Old Master Zhai was depressed. These old friends were simply old bad friends.
Zhai Sheng is so old, it's not too early for him to get engaged, and even if he gets married, it's not too early. He even calls his grandson's wife a baby, which seems to make his grandson look even older. Grandpa Zhai is very upset.
"Hahaha, that's enough, Old Deng, you've been fighting with Old Zhai all your life, and it's not enough. Today is such a good day, don't make Old Zhai angry. Look at the girl, how beautiful she is. If you scare her, you won't be able to drink that cup of tea in the future."
Someone tried to reconcile them.
"Don't mind. My comrades are used to joking like this." Zhai Sheng stayed by Qiao Nan's side to prevent her from getting nervous.
However, it is undeniable that Qiao Nan performed quite well. Facing the stares of these "hotties", Qiao Nan did not dodge and looked back at them openly.
Her bright eyes flickered, and her long eyelashes were dark like two wings. Her face, which was white with a hint of peach pink, looked even more beautiful against the bright red wedding dress.
Such a good-looking child is staring at me. As an older "expert", how can I not like him?
The most important thing is that Qiao Nan always has a smiling face when looking at everyone, just like some "big shots" whose faces are tanned darkly because they have been on the battlefield and killed Japanese devils. These "big shots" have one thing in common, that is, they have a heavier murderous and evil aura than ordinary soldiers.
It was these veteran generals who calmed the children down.
All cute children would cry or run away when they saw these strong-willed old grandfathers. Even when the old generals were holding their grandchildren or great-grandchildren in their arms and playing with them, they would not talk to them if they approached them. Instead, they would cry.
Even though a good-looking, young and smiling child like Qiao Nan could control herself from crying when she saw the old generals, her eyes were full of fire and her face turned pale, which was so miserable that the old generals felt suffocated in their hearts, let alone being in a good mood.
