Meng Zeyan grabbed Xiaonian, who had thought he had escaped, and pulled him by the ear. "You're imitating him quite well. Did you go to Lao Wan's house specifically to ask? Go back and tell Lao Wan that I wish him another son."
His ears were hurt by the pulling, and Xiaonian begged for mercy with his teeth bared: "Uncle Meng, please be gentle, I was wrong~ I was wrong~"
It was true that before he came, he went to Uncle Wan's house to show off, and then Uncle Wan asked him to help convey a message.
He now understood that Uncle Wan wanted Uncle Meng to deal with him.
Tang Huanxiao watched Xiaonian show off his antics. Meng Zeyan was very measured in his actions. Although he looked very powerful, he was actually just teasing him.
As the two of them were arguing, Yu Dezhu pulled out a red envelope from his pocket, placed it on the table, and pushed it towards Tang Huan, "This is for you."
"No, I can't accept it." Tang Huan quickly pushed it back, not understanding why Uncle Yu suddenly gave her a red envelope?
Yu Dezhu pushed it back and explained to Tang Huan in a gentle voice, "Zeyan was brought up by me. We treat him as a half-son. This is a meeting gift for my daughter-in-law."
He got married late and had children even later. He devoted more energy to Meng Zeyan than to Xiaonian. His wife still says that he is partial.
Tang Huan raised his eyes to look at Meng Zeyan, and saw him smiling and saying, "I accept it. It's a gift from Old Yu."
She took the red envelope and said thank you with a smile: "Thank you, Uncle Yu."
Yu Dezhu smiled and waved his hands, "I'm just giving you a gift first and then using force. I'm afraid you'll be so eager to scold me later."
As soon as he said this, Tang Huan felt the red envelope was too hot in his hand. Without thinking, he put it back on the table and said, "Then I'll wait until you finish speaking!"
"Hahaha~" Yu Dezhu was amused by her. The girl was quite reserved just now, but she immediately changed when she heard there was a conspiracy. "Okay, then I'll tell you first. After I finish, please don't be too angry for the sake of the red envelope."
"I'll try my best." Tang Huan couldn't guarantee that she wouldn't be angry, but she felt that what made her most angry might be that Uncle Yu didn't agree with them being together, but since he had given the red envelope, that meant he agreed.
What else could make her angry?
Yu Dezhu put away his smile and said, "This is what I mean. I would like to recommend Ze Yan to go to Kyoto for special officer training for a year. Returning after a year will be beneficial for his promotion."
He treated Meng Zeyan like a son, so naturally he paid special attention to his career. Each military region only had two such positions, and he wasn't being partial; the position should have been given to the most outstanding subordinate.
The smile on Tang Huan's face faded. He didn't curse anyone, but he was definitely not that happy anymore.
"Why didn't you tell me in advance?" Meng Zeyan put Xiaonian down in his arms. This was the first time he heard about this.
"If I tell this to you alone, you will still have to discuss it with Tang Huan. It's better for me to tell you directly." Yu Dezhu also went through this time. He knew that emotions could corrode people's ambitions. He didn't want Meng Zeyan to stop here.
He didn't bring anyone with him to make this trip in person because he was afraid that Meng Zeyan would refuse. Of course, he also wanted to meet the female comrade Meng Zeyan liked.
Tang Huan remembered what Tang Shuo had said, that Meng Zeyan would eventually reach a very high position, and this book tells the story of his path to promotion.
Meng Zeyan didn't agree or refuse directly, but said, "Old Yu, I need to think about this and ask my parents when I get home."
He knew his parents wouldn't object, but he mainly wanted to ask Tang Huan.
