Wen Ze looked at Wen Wen and wondered how a person could change so much. His sister used to be spoiled and willful, but after losing her memory, she became well-behaved, sensible and calm.
Yesterday when he got home, he saw his sister practicing calligraphy. She had already mastered the small regular script with flowery hairpins. He remembered that he had bought calligraphy before, but his sister lost patience after practicing for two days and later couldn't even find the copybook.
Wenwen was shocked when she heard this: "Fiancé? No way, it's a new society now, how could you arrange a marriage for me?" She had already decided to be a single woman in this life, and now a fiancé suddenly appeared.
She was secretly happy in her heart. At least in this life, she could live freely.
She was still wondering, since God had brought her to this era, could she do something great that would shock the world and make the gods cry?
"This engagement was made by your grandfather and the old man of the Yu family when you were five years old. The two families exchanged engagement cards and tokens of love." Wen Zhongxiang looked at his daughter's reaction. The old men of both families attached great importance to this engagement. Unfortunately, his father had passed away and would not be able to see his granddaughter's wedding day.
"Grandpa, why did you arrange this marriage for me when I was so young? Can I cancel it?" Wenwen looked at her father hopefully. She didn't want to have another fiancé.
"What's your reason for breaking off the engagement?" Wen Zhongxiang said, "The Yu family has a very good background. If we break off the engagement, we won't find anyone better. Family background is secondary. I'm more optimistic about the boy from the Yu family."
Wenwen's eyes rolled. "My future father-in-law gave me such a high evaluation? This is a bit difficult to deal with."
"Dad, you just said that you couldn't get through to the Yu family on the phone. Could it be that the Yu family heard the rumors here and wanted to cancel the engagement but were too embarrassed to say it, so they're waiting for our family to speak first." Wenwen thought this was the best case.
"Impossible, the Yu family would not do this. Even if they want to cancel the engagement, they will do it openly and not hide it like this." Wen Zhongxiang said firmly.
He knew the Yu family, and the old man of the Yu family was still alive. Unless the younger ones on both sides wanted to cancel the engagement, the Yu family would not do so. Although his father did not tell him why he arranged a marriage for Wenwen, it was the old man of the Yu family who persuaded his father for a long time before his father agreed to it.
"Why can't the call go through? Is the Yu family in Beijing? We can go to his house." Wenwen was puzzled.
Wen Zhongxiang nodded: "I plan to go to the military compound tomorrow to take a look." He was afraid that something might have happened to the Yu family.
"Ah? Military compound? Is the Yu family in politics? Ordinary people can't enter that area." Wenwen was stunned. Her grandfather had arranged for her to marry the son of an official?
"You can't get in. Without permission from someone in the compound, outsiders can't get in. I still have to go there tomorrow."
"Dad, tell me about the Yu family." Since I have a fiancé who is a politician, it's better to know more about him.
It turned out that the old man of the Yu family and the old man of the Wen family were both comrades who had fought on the front line. Unfortunately, his grandfather lost one leg in a bombing by the Japanese. Fortunately, he survived despite the poor medical conditions at the time.
Although the two old men are from different military regions, they have a good comradeship.
The old man of the Yu family, Yu Baitian, may be more suitable for politics. Even his three children have been promoted step by step, and they are definitely the second generation.
Wenwen's fiancé is the eldest daughter of the Yu family, and Wenwen's future father-in-law, Yu Chengye, is the director of a special scientific research department.
Wenwen's fiancé Yu Xunting is in the same unit as Wensheng. He is the most powerful soldier in the unit and has reached the rank of company commander at a young age.
Wenwen's jaw dropped when she heard this. She said that her grandfather had found her a very powerful in-law family. Their family background was too high, and if she married into the family, she would become the wife of an official.
But my family is just ordinary people. Isn’t grandpa afraid of the huge gap in status?
"This kid from the Yu family is both handsome and intelligent, and he also comes from a wealthy family. Isn't this a bargain for me?" Wenwen flicked the photo with her hand. The problem is that my sister doesn't deserve him!
"You have no respect. Did you call me Yu's kid?" Chen Yuelian scolded with a smile.
Wenwen grimaced at her mother and said, "You can't afford to offend me. My future mother-in-law will protect me right away."
Wenwen was a little depressed because both of them were veterans who had served on the front lines. Yu's grandfather had a successful career, while her own grandfather was disabled due to a broken leg. He received some money and used the honor to buy his father a position as a factory director.
"Did our family almost become the second generation?" Wenwen asked her parents.
Wen Zhongxiang didn't understand what his daughter meant.
Chen Yuelian understood: "Everyone's opportunities are different. How do you know your grandfather can be a good official? Besides, so many people died in battle in that era."
"Yes! We are very lucky. Our family is much better off than many people." Wenwen thought that she was thinking wrongly. At least her grandfather did not die in the battlefield.
"Dad, are you sure Grandpa Yu is under Commander Zhu?"
"Sure, it's not a secret." Wen Zhongxiang didn't understand why his daughter asked this.
"Dad, you'd better go and take a look as soon as possible. If something really happens, we can make plans early." She thought something must have happened. The special decade has begun, and Commander Zhu's men are the first to bear the brunt.
"Okay, I'll go check it out as soon as possible. I won't feel at ease if I don't go and ask." Wen Zhongxiang hopes everything is fine.
As expected, Wen Zhongxiang went to the military compound and came back to say that something happened to the Yu family. At present, we only know that the old man of the Yu family was demoted, and it is still unknown where he went.
"No wonder. I was wondering why the Lai family acted this way. It turns out something happened to the Yu family. But where did the Lai family get the news?" Wen Ze's eyes were dark.
"Yeah, no wonder Lai Qiang wants to get closer to the Wen family." Wen Zhongxiang recalled Lai Qiang's sarcastic tone and wondered, "Could this be the work of the Lai family?"
"It's very likely, Dad. Can't we still contact our second brother?" Wenwen asked. Asking her second brother about the current situation of the Yu family was secondary, and the main purpose was to ask her second brother for people.
Comrades who served in the army are all over the world. The Wen family is just ordinary people, but the Yu family is different. They must have their own people.
Wenwen was thinking that maybe she was implicated by the Yu family this time. Political enemies are very scary, and the brains of officials are god-level.
"I got through. Something happened to the kid from the Yu family. He went missing while on a mission." Wen Zhongxiang sighed. How could this happen?
"Dad, you have to call my second brother tomorrow and ask him if he has any trustworthy comrades outside. We need people to do some things here." Wenwen instructed. She was afraid that the Yu family would be wiped out.
"Third brother, can you check Lai Youcai's cousin? I suspect this person is closely involved with our family." Wenwen looked at Wen Ze. She felt that her third brother was a bit sinister.
It's just that the eldest brother's side is more troublesome. Now she is sure that there is something wrong with Shi Xiaofang. She has been secretly observing the interactions of the young couple in the past few days. Logically, newlyweds should not be very affectionate with each other, but it's not like them either. They are almost like strangers.
It’s hard to tell how much her elder brother likes her elder sister-in-law. They even rarely talk to each other. On several occasions, Shi Xiaofang even showed a look of disgust towards her elder brother. Although it wasn’t very obvious, she was well-informed and watched a lot of short videos on Douyin.
I am not afraid of problems, I am afraid of not being able to find them.
