After Chen Zhizhi took Chen Zhiyuan away, everyone looked at Xiao Yan and the eagle-eyed man. At first, Xiao Yan didn't notice, but later she got annoyed by their stares: "Why are you looking at me?"
Yao Yanxin: "You got your marriage certificate?"
Xiao Yan stammered, "I... I just scared people away!"
Xiao Gengwu noticed the change in the eagle-eyed man's expression: "Mom, if you want to get married, that's fine, but there's no point in staying with someone like that. He probably thinks he's so charming!"
"Exactly, his belly is so big, you'd think he's several months pregnant!" Yao Tongxu said discontentedly. He dares to come here asking for Brother Xiao, who does he think he is!
The man with eagle eyes walked over and whispered a few words to Ruan Shengpeng, then turned and left!
Seeing this, Xiao Yan felt apologetic and said to everyone, "I'll go explain a few things!"
The eagle-eyed man was tall and had long legs. In the short time it took Xiao Yan to say a word, he had already walked quite a distance. Xiao Yan hurriedly chased after him, shouting, "Wait for me!"
The hawk-eyed man asked expressionlessly, "Is there something you need?"
"You, you're angry?"
"No, I'm not angry!" He was just feeling a little down. The eagle-eyed man glanced into the distance, silently making amends in his heart.
I apologize for saying this without your permission!
"It's alright, as long as it's useful. If you need me next time, just let me know! If you feel bad about it, cook me a meal!" With that, the hawk-eyed man left!
Xiao Yan quickly called out from behind, "Next time you come to the county, come to the hospital to find me, and I'll cook for you!"
The eagle-eyed man was secretly delighted. Without turning around, afraid that his beaming smile would be seen, he quickly raised his hand and waved it behind him to indicate that he understood.
Seeing that the eagle-eyed man had responded, Xiao Yan felt relieved and walked briskly into the courtyard, meeting several pairs of eyes: "What's wrong with you? You all look so green, you scared me!"
That's a gossipy look in your eyes, don't you understand? If you do, then leave the gossip here.
But Xiao Yan clearly didn't understand, and the others didn't say much. Xiao Yan arrived late and was somewhat puzzled: "Why did Chen Zhiyuan suddenly come here?"
So many years have passed, and he still hasn't come looking for me. Do you expect him to realize his mistake as he gets older? That's a huge joke!
Yao Yanxin quickly pulled Xiao Yan to the back and began to explain to her.
Upon hearing that the man had lost his fertility and that his adult son had died, he laughed with joy: "That's wonderful!"
She's happy knowing that the scumbag is doing badly; she really didn't deserve her past self!
After Xiao Yan finished being happy, Yao Yanxin said, "I'm just afraid he'll get entangled with Xiao Gengwu. How could someone with such traditional values abandon his own grown son to raise someone else's child!"
Xiao Yan was not happy. She had come here after her divorce, following her parents' advice, because she was afraid of being wrongly arrested and sent to a lower-level area.
More importantly, she didn't want to stay in Beijing and keep arguing with her ex-husband. Neither his mother nor he himself were the type to stay quiet.
Now look what's happened. After all these years of turmoil, they're now empty-handed. They'll definitely come to bother Xiao Gengwu and her. Just thinking about her former mother-in-law makes Xiao Yan's scalp tingle even before she's met her.
Seeing Xiao Yan's worried face, Yao Yanxin quickly comforted her, "It's alright for now, we're far from Beijing!"
"But I heard that the three children want to get into the best universities, and they'll definitely be going to Beijing! It won't be long, will it?"
Those with connections already know that the college entrance examination will be restarted soon, most likely at the end of the year. So, the children will only have about six months to go to Beijing.
Upon hearing this, Yao Tongjia was at a loss for words of comfort!
The two mothers sat together, looking worried. Yao Tongjia had seen Chen's mother before, and she even had the thought of breaking off the engagement.
It's just that Chen's mother is too much of a troublemaker. Now that Chen Jia only wants Xiao Gengwu as her grandson, she's determined to keep him in her grasp. That way, Yao Tongjia will definitely not have a good life after marrying into the family!
Seeing Yao Yanxin's distress, Xiao Yan suggested, "Why don't we let the three children not go to school in Beijing?"
"If you're capable of getting into the best school, why give up because of a minor setback?" Yao Yanxin's words made Xiao Yan sigh: "Let's talk to the children about the situation and let them choose for themselves!"
When they arrived at the study, the three children were studying quietly. Xiao Yan couldn't bear to disturb them: "Let them study first, we'll talk about the rest later!"
Yes! The results of the college entrance exam haven't come out yet, let's wait and see!
Unfortunately, they didn't give them any time. Not long after Chen Zhiyuan returned to Beijing, he brought his elderly mother back to the military region.
Originally, Ruan Shengpeng had instructed Chen Zhiyuan not to be allowed to enter, but Chen's mother was too dramatic; she threatened to hang herself and bang her head against the door.
In the end, to maintain order, they had no choice but to let her in. Chen's mother walked into the military area with a smug look on her face. Did she think she couldn't handle these people? As long as she didn't care about saving face, those who cared about face would have no choice but to compromise with her!
She was too happy too soon. The young soldier received instructions, came in, took her to the training area, and then left!
Chen Zhiyuan had been here before, but he took the road through the family area. Now that he's been brought to the training ground, he doesn't know the way.
The mother and son wandered around the training ground, asking passing soldiers for directions, but they all seemed to be blind, as if they couldn't see them, and simply walked away!
By the time they had driven around the military region for a long time and Chen Zhiyuan finally found his way, most of the day had passed.
The mother and son were starving. When they arrived at Ruan Shengpeng's place, the door was open. They barged in, found a stool, and sat down, saying, "Give me a glass of water!"
But everyone knows they're here to cause trouble, so who wants to pay them any attention!
It was as if they were talking to thin air; no one came out. They had to go to the kitchen to get water themselves, but the kitchen was locked!
In the end, they had no choice but to knock on doors one by one, but all the doors were locked and they couldn't open them!
They had no choice but to go out again to look for the mess hall, but the military region's mess halls were set at fixed times and locations. When they arrived, everything had already been washed and there was no food left!
They could only return to Ruan Shengpeng's courtyard, hungry and thirsty, where there was really nothing but a place to sit.
They were left waiting like that for half a day. When night fell, Chen's mother finally saw them and immediately flew into a rage: "Is this how you treat your guests?"
Yao Yanxin has recently been managing people and has also learned to reason: "Are you guests? We don't recognize villains like you as guests!"
Chen's mother was trembling with anger. She was also hungry, and she couldn't care less about anything else: "Give me water, give me some food!"
Yao Yanxin said calmly, "We'll all come back after we finish eating. There's no food or water left!"
