Chapter 387 Does Niu have a commander?
Cui'e waited outside for almost an hour before she saw Pei Jingming come out. This time he went directly to the Beiyang Government Office.
Pei Jingming felt uneasy today. He called home when he returned to the office, but no one answered the call.
"This Qian Ma is getting more and more unreasonable." He complained, and when he saw the documents on the table, he had to give up his plan to go home.
Cui'e has learned some characters now, but there are still many she doesn't recognize. She took advantage of Pei Jingming's absence and quietly moved closer.
He craned his neck to look at the document in front of him.
Pei Jingming felt someone behind him again, but when he turned around there was no one there. He reached out to grab behind him without giving up.
Cui'e dodged nimbly and didn't let him touch anything.
"It's really hell." Pei Jingming cursed in a low voice.
He turned to look at the documents in his hand, and after the documents were processed, he took out a piece of paper from the drawer.
The names of the Si family members were written on it, and Juanjuan's name was circled in red.
Cui'e may not remember other characters, but she definitely remembers the names of Sijia and Juanjuan.
Seeing these words, her brows couldn't help but frown: What does he mean?
The office became unusually quiet and nothing more happened.
Qian Ma was accidentally bumped into by someone while buying vegetables, and a kind girl helped her pick up the vegetables.
The two of them were so engrossed in their conversation that it was not until the bell rang that Qian's mother remembered she had to go back to cook. She quickly said goodbye to her and headed home.
Meng Yanxin waited until they all returned safely, then she breathed a sigh of relief: "Youchui, go book the tickets, we'll return to Beiyang City as soon as possible."
"Okay, I'll go now." Li Youchui nodded and immediately walked out of the inn.
Baozhu looked at Meng Yanxin: "Miss Meng, what happened today?"
Meng Yanxin herself was not very clear about it, but she suddenly remembered what Si Tian had told her before leaving.
"Let's just pretend today's events never happened and forget about it."
Several people nodded, but what they didn't expect was that this incident really disappeared from their memory.
They were not invisible, nor were they invisible; they simply avoided people and sneaked in.
Meng Yanxin's memory was still there. After letting them rest, she took out the notebook with the leaves that Juanjuan gave her inside.
The originally green leaves have now turned a little yellow, as if they are slowly drying up.
She smiled and gently touched the texture on the leaves: This little guy Juanjuan really has a lot of secrets, and I will definitely keep this secret.
He carefully put the leaves back into the book and put it in the pocket of his clothes.
Train tickets to Beiyang City were not easy to buy, so they would need to stay in the northern government's territory for a while longer.
During this period, they tried not to go out to avoid causing unnecessary trouble.
On the other side, Governor Niu and his wife had arrived at the train station in Beiyang City.
Sima Ming brought Adjutant Qi and his family to the train to welcome their arrival.
As soon as General Niu's train arrived, a group of soldiers got out of the carriage and stood neatly on both sides of the door.
Juanjuan held Si Jinchen's hand and looked towards the train door curiously: "Brother, there are so many soldiers. Are they also Dad's soldiers?"
"They are not my father's soldiers, they are General Niu's soldiers." Si Jinchen shook his head.
"Do cows have a supervisor?" Juanjuan thought of the cow that worked with her in the fields and carried her on its back as she ran across the fields.
When Mrs. Si heard this, she was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
"Juanjuan, General Niu's surname is Niu, but he is not the Niu Niu who works with us in the fields." Si Jinchen looked at her helplessly.
Juanjuan nodded in sudden realization: "So that's how it is!"
After a while, two silver-haired old men got out of the train carriage. The man was wearing a well-fitting military uniform and had a strong physique.
His handsome facial features have shown signs of aging, but he still gives people a very majestic feeling.
The lady next to him was wearing a black velvet cheongsam embroidered with cranes, but her face didn't look very good.
He held a handkerchief in his hand and would cover his mouth with it when he coughed from time to time.
Governor Niu helped her get off the train and asked, "Are you okay?"
"It's okay." Mrs. Niu smiled and patted his hand that was supporting her.
"Commander Niu, Madam Niu, you must have worked hard on the journey. I have someone prepare a restaurant for you. I will take you back to rest first."
Siming smiled and walked forward to greet the two of them.
General Niu looked at Si Ming and laughed heartily, his voice full of energy: "Si Qing is just a lucky kid."
When Si Qing was still around, he had heard the old man brag about his children many times.
Now that I have seen him, he is indeed an enviable talent.
Mrs. Niu looked at Siming and couldn't help feeling a little regretful. If she had a child, the child would probably be the same age as him!
As soon as she thought of this, she felt the soft warmth in the palm of her hand hanging by her side.
When she looked down, she saw a pretty little girl holding her hand and looking at her with a smile on her face: "Hello, grandma."
Mrs. Niu watched as the regrets in her heart were blown away. She bent down and looked at her: "Whose child are you?"
"It's my dad's house!" Juanjuan blinked her beautiful big eyes.
"This is my child. He is a little naughty and a little courageous. Please don't mind him." Old Madam Si said this, but her eyes were full of doting for Juanjuan.
"Who would mind such a well-behaved and pretty child? I wish she could follow me every day." Mrs. Niu didn't know why, but she liked the child she met once.
"Wow! This little kid is so cute." Governor Niu also saw Juanjuan standing aside.
"Hello, Grandpa!" Juanjuan called out obediently.
"Okay, okay, do you want to go to the restaurant to play with grandpa?" Governor Niu was afraid of scaring the child, so he had to lower his loud voice a lot.
When he lowered his voice, the people around him felt a little uncomfortable.
Everyone cast their gazes at him.
"What are you looking at? I'm just afraid of scaring the little kid. If he cries, you guys comfort him!" He yelled at the people behind him.
The soldiers immediately withdrew their gazes and stood straight.
"Juanjuan is not afraid." Juanjuan answered with a smile.
"Okay, okay, it's great to have such a thoughtful child." Governor Niu really couldn't hold back his loud voice.
"We'll take you back to the hotel first. After you have rested for a while, we can talk while we eat." Siming waved at Juanjuan.
Juanjuan let go of Mrs. Niu's hand, ran towards him and held his hand.
Si Jinchen also took his other hand.
The car was already parked outside the train station. After they got out, they got in the car and went straight to the restaurant.
