Ruan Shengpeng took the passbook with some surprise. There was 2,000 yuan on it, which relieved him somewhat, as he had been on missions outside.
He was worried that Yan Yan wouldn't have enough money, so he specially set up this savings account and had the military region transfer money directly into it, even though he himself didn't have much money on him.
But to my surprise, my daughter Yan Yan and her child didn't get any of the money; instead, it ended up in the hands of my dear sister.
With this 2,000 yuan, everything I do will be much easier.
"Here's an IOU. Keep it safe. If your sister refuses to pay you back in the future, just tell me and I'll help you get it back!"
Ruan Shengpeng took the IOU, which stated that he owed 100,000 yuan. He sneered, "Can she even afford it? I've been working hard outside for over a decade, while she's just sitting back and enjoying the fruits of my labor."
"And she acted all self-righteous, as if I was born to take care of her!"
Grandpa Ruan opened his mouth: "She will always be your sister!"
"Dad, let me be frank, I can never consider her family. If she hadn't been stirring up trouble in front of my mother every day, my wife and children wouldn't have been lost!"
"As for my mother, I will give her money to support her in her old age, but that's all. I don't need to see her again!"
"Si'er, you didn't have to go this far, did you? I've already gotten justice for you, so just forgive them!"
"If I forgive them, I'll be letting down my wife and children. Dad, if you were me, would you forgive them?"
Grandpa Ruan was speechless. Not only could he not forgive them, he also wanted to torture them all again! Even if he took off his military uniform, he would still take revenge.
Having come to his senses, Grandpa Ruan sighed: "From now on, you should live a good life. I will keep an eye on your mother and your sister. By the way, I came here today because I heard some news."
"I heard you took on the task of reforming the military region below? Is that news false?" Old Master Ruan asked expectantly.
"It's true, I'll go see the leaders with Commander Qian tomorrow!" Ruan Shengpeng said calmly.
But Old Master Ruan was so angry that his hands and feet trembled: "How could you accept such a mission? You'll offend every military region in the country."
"How could you agree to that? Didn't you say you wanted to go into politics?"
"Entering politics requires starting from scratch. I can't wait for myself to grow up slowly. I've been in the military since I could walk, and I don't want to leave the military!"
Grandpa Ruan sighed: "I asked about your injury and it's not serious. As long as you don't do a lot of training, it's not a big deal. Your current position no longer depends on physical strength. You can stay in the army."
"It doesn't matter, but we all know that brigade commander is my final destination, I can see the end from the beginning, and I want to give it one last shot!"
"But if you do that, you'll offend a lot of people. Do you want to be a lone minister?"
“So be it, I am a lone subject. Do you think my good mother and sister will let me off the hook? Can you follow them 24 hours a day? They will definitely smear my name.”
"I have no future in Beijing, I must leave!"
"Sweetie isn't really your daughter? She looks a bit like you when you were little!"
"Dad, you've seen my daughter Tongtong. My Tongtong looks very much like her mother, especially her eyes, which are almost like they've been cut off. Your face shape can change, but your eyes will never change!"
"Whose child is Ruan Tian?"
"You'll have to ask my wonderful mother about that. Look how much better she treats that girl than she treats me. In our family, just ask whoever gets that kind of treatment!"
"you mean......."
"I don't know, you should check it yourself. Don't believe everything they say in the future. I'll leave Beijing tomorrow after I meet with my superiors."
"Dad, please help me rent out this house. The rent will go to you two for your retirement. I'll come back to Beijing when I've accomplished something!"
Upon hearing his fourth son's seemingly farewell words, Old Master Ruan appeared to age several years: "You must protect yourself. Enemies are not scary; what's scary is an enemy disguised as a friend!"
"I know, Dad. Be careful with your money, or you'll end up with nothing to rely on!"
“I get a salary every month, what are you afraid of? Don’t worry about me. If, if you find the child, let me know and I will continue to ask people to look for him. Call me when you have time!”
"I understand, Dad. You can go back now. There's not even a place for me to sit down!"
"Why don't you come back with me? There's nowhere to sleep here!"
"I'm going back to the barracks. I'm going to see Commander Qian tomorrow anyway, and there's always a place for me in the barracks!"
"Get in the car with me. When we get to the military compound, I'll get out and the driver will take you to the barracks!"
That's a good idea. Ruan Shengpeng didn't hesitate to follow his elderly father. The buses had all stopped running, and he had originally planned to run there.
But he had only just recovered, and he was afraid that running would injure him again, which would be a loss.
Upon arriving at the military compound, Grandpa Ruan got out of the car, waved to Ruan Shengpeng, and turned to leave. Ruan Shengpeng gestured for the driver to wait, and then he saw Grandpa Ruan slowly walk into the military compound.
That receding figure, once so majestic, now seems somewhat hunched over. Ruan Shengpeng's eyes couldn't help but well up with tears.
He won't be back in Beijing for several years after leaving this time. If... if he can't find his wife and children, he might never return to Beijing.
He wished his father a long and healthy life, and Ruan Shengpeng silently made this wish while looking at his father's back.
Zhou Kunran finally found out about Ruan Shengpeng and was talking to Xiao Yan at the moment.
"If the name is correct, Ruan Shengpeng does have a teenage daughter and a wife. It is said that his wife took care of him in the hospital when he was injured."
"A teenage daughter?! What a scumbag!" Upon hearing this news, Xiao Yan slammed her hand heavily on the table, feeling sorry for her friend.
Zhou Kunran looked at Xiao Yan's hand and asked, "Don't your hands hurt?"
How could it not hurt? Xiao Yan screamed inwardly, but of course, she remained outwardly calm: "What pain? That scumbag, if I ever see him again, I'll definitely beat him to death!"
"His daughter lives with his parents. She is said to be very popular and a very sociable person. In the military compound, no one has a bad word to say about her!"
"She's just a hypocrite. She was probably the one who caused the incident last time!"
"That can't be right! She's still a teenage girl!"
"Look at my Tongtong and my son, and you'll know whether it's possible or not. Age is not a problem at all!"
"That's right, kids these days are all very shrewd. By the way, the director's nephew hasn't contacted anyone in Beijing yet."
"How did you know?" Xiao Yan asked curiously.
