The girl didn't understand military ranks, but she had an innate admiration for soldiers. She thought Nanzhou, who was dressed in military uniform, was handsome and reliable, and she was extremely envious of Ying Xue.
But Wang Biao and the other two sitting on the other side were so shocked that their jaws dropped. The three stars on the shoulders of the military uniform almost blinded them...
How old is Nanqiao's brother? Is this his personal ability or his family charm?
But what they didn't know was how many wounds Nanzhou had. His current position was earned through more than a decade of hard work on the battlefield since he became an adult.
Many people who don't know the situation speculated whether Nanzhou got help by marrying the mayor's daughter. However, how could the two parties, one in politics and the other in the military, who couldn't get involved at all, provide Nanzhou with any convenience?
Nanzhou also changed his coat and sat down next to Yingxue. Xiaoche sat on Sheng Yanchuan's lap, and Shishu and Shiyan were in Nanbo's arms. Nanzhou rarely had so much free time. He felt lonely without a little friend in his arms, so he stretched out his hand to Xiaoran who was lying timidly in Nanqiao's arms and said, "Uncle, can you hold me?"
Xiaoran looked at her mother, then at her uncle, and stretched out her little arms to ask her uncle to hold her. Besides her parents, her favorite person was her uncle.
Little Anran hugged her uncle's neck, with her soft face pressed against Nanzhou's neck, and looked sideways at her mother.
Nanzhou was afraid that Anran would be cold, so he unzipped his jacket and held the little one inside. After a while, Xiaoran didn't move. Nanzhou tilted his head and looked at her. Then he realized that Xiaoran had been looking at her mother. From time to time, she would smile when she heard her mother say something.
Nanzhou rarely had a smile on his face. "Xiao Ran didn't forget to stare at his mother even in his uncle's arms."
"Mom, you look good." Xiao Ran stood up from Nan Zhou's arms and said seriously.
"Then my aunt doesn't look good? My aunt doesn't even see Xiaoran looking at me." Ying Xue tapped Xiaoran's chin and said, pretending to be jealous.
"My aunt is pretty too, but my mom is the prettiest," Xiao Ran said without thinking, defending her mom's looks seriously.
Ying Xue burst out laughing when she heard this.
Shi Shu and Shi Yan, who were on the side, followed their sister mindlessly. When they heard Xiao Ran say this, they also joined in, "Aunt is pretty."
"Yes, yes, your aunt is the prettiest, Xiaoran and Xiaoche's mother is the prettiest." The besieged Ying Xue shook her head helplessly. Nanqiao's beauty was beyond doubt, but she couldn't understand why Shishu and Shiyan, the two little devils, obeyed Xiaoran's orders so much, and usually made a fuss and refused to go to bed at night. It would definitely work if Xiaoran's name was reported.
Xiaoran got the answer she wanted and nestled back into her uncle's arms to look at her mother. Nanqiao felt warm at the sight of Xiaoran like this. He approached Xiaoran and kissed her on the forehead, "You are really my little angel."
Xiaoran was so happy when her mother kissed her that she hugged her uncle's neck and giggled.
When Xiao Che saw his sister being kissed by his mother, he was so jealous that he struggled in his father's arms and wanted to find his mother.
"Mom, mom, Xiao Che also wants a kiss."
Xiao Che struggled so hard that Sheng Yanchuan almost couldn't hold him. Before Sheng Yanchuan could get up, Nanqiao got up first and walked towards him.
Under Xiao Che's eager gaze, Nan Qiao kissed Xiao Che on the cheek, and the little guy sat contentedly in his father's arms.
Before Nanqiao could straighten up, she saw Shi Shu and Shi Yan looking at her eagerly. Their big watery eyes were full of expectation, but they were too shy to say anything.
Nanqiao did not show favoritism and kissed Shishu and Shiyan on their little cheeks, "Xiaoshu and Xiaoyan are also your aunt's little treasures."
The four little ones were all kissed, and now they are not making any noise, just sitting quietly and watching the adults chatting.
"It's strange to say, why do these little guys, including An Guo, fall for your tricks so much?" Shen Nian looked envious. The boy in her family gave her a headache.
“Maybe it’s because I’m good-looking, hahahaha.” Nanqiao said with a smile, and Shen Nian listened with a helpless look on his face.
"Let's have lunch together at noon." Sheng Yanchuan looked at the time. It was almost time for lunch and there were fewer people in the restaurant, so he called everyone to have lunch together.
"No need, we'll just have a quick lunch and go back to school. You guys still have things to do here, so don't bother us anymore," Wang Biao said first. He didn't help in the morning and even ate someone else's meal. He didn't have the thick skin of Hao Jian.
"It's right next door, it's already been booked," Sheng Yanchuan said, pointing to the courtyard next door. It's a private restaurant that has been open for some years, but in the past few years it was only open to entertain relatives and friends, and the boss has some connections, so it has survived until now. But it is undeniable that the cooking skills of the boss of this private restaurant are first-class.
Rumor has it that the chef from Kyoto came here to avoid disaster. He is not only good at local cuisine, but also at some northern dishes. So since Sheng Yanchuan knew about this place, he would bring Nanqiao here from time to time, or pack some to take home.
The owner of the private restaurant would occasionally import some rare food ingredients through Sheng Yanchuan's network of connections, and over time the two of them became close.
So Boss Wen, who usually only entertains two tables of guests a day, was particularly good-natured today and opened two more tables for Sheng Yanchuan, and even prepared a special meal for the employees of Sheng Yanchuan's store...
"Let's go and try it. The food here is really delicious. I have been in Shanghai for so many years, and if Yan Chuan hadn't opened a store here, I wouldn't have known about it." Nanqiao asked a few people to stand up.
Nanzhou and his men stood up first, followed by Wang Biao, Jiang Lingling and others. At this point, it would be pointless to refuse.
"Qiaoqiao, you take everyone there first. I'll go to the store to say hello," Sheng Yanchuan said to Nanqiao
