Gao Miao looked at Gao Tairan and said, "General Gao, when we have dinner later, please tell me about losing your memory, getting married and having a daughter, and about me going to the government office to get the documents and change my household registration.

Since there is no relationship anymore, it should be made clear and explicit."

Gao Tairan was so frustrated by Gao Miao's attitude of "we don't want to have anything to do with you" that he almost had a heart attack.

However, he wants to save face.

Moreover, in front of outsiders, he had to maintain the appearance of being loyal and righteous.

"Okay! I'll explain it clearly. But Xiao Miao, are you really not going to the capital with me? The capital not only has good academies, but also the Imperial Academy. If you want to study, the conditions in the capital are definitely the best."

Xie looked at Gao Miao.

Gao Tairan was right. Beijing was indeed strong in this respect.

She suddenly became worried that she was ruining her son's future.

Gao Miao shook his head, looking determined.

"No need to think about it anymore. I'm here. It's good for Yun Ting and I to be together in the academy. Besides, I will feel more accomplished and more comfortable if I get it by myself."

Gao Tairan inexplicably felt that he was being implied.

I always feel that Gao Miao is mocking him for getting everything he has with the help of others.

"As long as you don't regret it in the future, it's fine."

“I won’t regret it!”

Gao Tairan looked at Gao Miao and pretended to sigh deeply, pretending to be reluctant to let him go.

"Xiao Miao, regardless of whether we are related or not, I am your biological father, and this is a fact that cannot be changed. If you encounter difficulties in the future, you must tell me and I will definitely handle it for you."

Gao Miao didn't say anything.

He didn't want to pay attention to this.

Because he knew that Gao Tairan would never help him, it would be enough as long as he didn't target them all the time.

But this is probably difficult.

Now, he can only plan and take things one step at a time.

Before he was fully grown, he couldn't choke Gao Tairan directly and make him want to kill again.

The villagers came running to inform everyone that the food was ready and they could start the feast.

The old ancestor stood up and led everyone to the gate of the village ancestral hall.

When we got there, the villagers had already put wine and food on the table.

Each one of them was extremely enthusiastic.

The old ancestor and Gao Tairan sat at the main table, while Xie, Gao Miao and Gao Zhi sat at the table next to them with Yang and others.

Everyone looked at this situation and were a little confused.

The old ancestor raised his glass and said, "Come on! Let's toast to our great general and thank the soldiers who are defending our country at the border. It is because of them that we can live a stable life."

Everybody stood up.

Everyone raised their glasses.

"Greetings, General. Thank you, General, and the soldiers at the border."

At this moment, Gao Tairan's heart swelled rapidly. He felt like he was a peerless hero. However, when he thought of the days when he fought to the death on the battlefield, he couldn't help but have tears in his eyes.

"Thank you, everyone!" Gao Tairan looked at the Xie family, "I also thank you for taking care of Xianglan and her two children over the years."

After saying that, he drank the wine in the glass in one gulp.

He picked up the jug and poured himself some wine, then looked at the villagers and said, "Thank you, everyone!"

He drank the wine again in one gulp.

After the third glass of wine, he walked to Xie's side and said, "Xianglan, for so many years, I have been a burden to you and made you suffer so much. Now that I am back, I cannot take you to the capital to live a good life.

Pandan, thank you!

Xianglan, I'm sorry!"

Gao Tairan drank the wine in his glass again.

The villagers were confused. Gao Tairan kept saying thank you and sorry, and also said that he could not take Xie Xianglan to the capital to live a good life. What did this mean?

Xie Xianglan also drank the wine in one gulp.

The cup was turned upside down, without a drop.

She looked straight at Gao Tairan, "You don't have to do this, it's just that we are not destined to be together."

Xie Xianglan poured herself a glass of wine and said, "I wish General Gao all his wishes come true, his family is happy, and he continues to be promoted!" After that, she drank.

Gao Tairan felt reluctant to see Xie Xianglan like this.

So free and easy!

So beautiful!

At this moment, Xie seemed to him to be glowing.

He never knew that Xie was so beautiful.

"Xianglan, I..."

"General Gao, you can tell the villagers about the rest of the matter." Xie interrupted Gao Tairan, sat down, and picked up some food for Gao Zhi with her chopsticks.

Gao Tairan sighed softly and looked at the gossiping villagers.

He told the story slowly and leisurely.

First, he was seriously injured and lost his memory and was mistakenly thought to have died.

Second, he married another wife and had a daughter in the capital.

Third, Gao Miao had set up his own business, and because he had been "deceased" for many years, the government issued an official document to dissolve his marital relationship with Xie.

Fourth, he will take his family to the capital the day after tomorrow.

After the story was told, the whole place fell silent.

None of the villagers expected such a big turn of events.

Ever since Gao Tairan showed up in the village, everyone has been discussing how Xie had finally gotten her due and how she would become the general's wife in the future.

I didn't expect it to happen so suddenly.

Xie Xianglan, so pitiful!

Xie Xianglan, you are really unlucky!

Xie Xianglan, it makes me feel sorry for her!

These are the three thoughts of the villagers.

Everyone looked at Xie Xianglan with sympathy.

But Xie Xianglan acted as if nothing had happened and focused on picking up food for her two children.

Everyone saw this and concluded that Xie Xianglan was too sad and too stubborn to show her sad side in front of others.

Gao Tairan returned to the main table.

Villagers came over in twos and threes to toast.

Gao Tairan never refuses anyone who comes.

After Xie had eaten, she took Gao Zhi and Gao Miao home.

On the way, Gao Miao carried Gao Zhi on his back and Xie held a torch.

Gao Zhi and Gao Miao looked at Xie from time to time. Xie felt a little overwhelmed by their stares and couldn't help asking, "What are you two doing? Why are you looking at me all the time? Are you afraid that I will be upset?"

Gao Miao still felt a little uneasy.

"Mom, will you blame me for starting my own business and even issuing an official document?"

Apart from the fact that Xie and Gao Tairan were married, Gao Miao had never told anyone about this. In fact, he was worried that Xie would be sad.

After all, they are husband and wife, and she has been a widow for so many years, so they should still have feelings for each other, right?

Mrs. Xie shook her head. "I don't blame you! I want to thank you. Xiao Miao, I also want to ask you, will you blame me for being selfish and unwilling to follow that man to the capital, so that you can't enjoy the good conditions in the capital?"

Xie was also worried about this.

Gao Miao immediately shook her head, "No way! I don't want to go to the capital with him at all, mother, everything I said at the old ancestor's house was all true.

What I want, I can get on my own.

And he can't give us anything.

If we really want to go back to the capital with him, we will face chaos and all kinds of suppression.

That woman won’t accept that.”

Gao Zhi felt particularly invisible today.

For this reason, she couldn't help but speak.

"I don't want to go to the capital, I don't want to call him dad, and I don't want my mother to suffer in the future. What I said before was also sincere. What Gao Miao and I can give to my mother is far greater than what that man can give.

Mom, Gao Miao and I will be very filial to you.

You are happy to be yourself.

If mom meets the right person in the future, she can find a stepfather for Gao Miao and me. We won’t object.

In short, my mother deserves better.

Gao Miao, you think so too, right? "
