He also knew the responsibilities and burdens his grandson had carried since childhood, which was why his grandson was so strict with himself.
“Now it’s all good. With his sister-in-law, Ah Xun finally has a soul and a sense of life,” Quan Yicheng said, sitting down as well.
Aunt Tian glared at him and said, "Stop talking nonsense. Our Xun didn't meet any girls he liked before, that's called being virtuous and self-disciplined. Unlike those spoiled brats, who ruin their reputations before they even get married."
Many of the children in the compound are really bad people, unlike Ah Xun, who is upright and devoted to his relationships.
"Mom, I also keep myself clean, so please don't just praise Ah Xun."
Aunt Tian didn't hold back, saying bluntly, "You're different; nobody would even look at you."
Quan Yicheng clutched his chest: "She really is my mother!"
"Hahaha..." Everyone burst into laughter at his comical appearance.
After a lively breakfast, Chu Xun went out to arrange the trip to the sanatorium, while Chu Xingbang pulled Li Xiyue to look at the family photo album.
Li Xiyue discovered that the elderly people all like to look at photo albums and reminisce about the past.
“These are Xun’s eldest uncle, second uncle, third uncle, and fourth uncle.” Chu Xingbang pointed to the people in the photo and introduced them one by one. “Xun’s grandmother passed away early, and these rascals all grew up with me, but I didn’t really take care of them. I was busy killing Japanese devils!”
When talking about killing Japanese devils, the old man's face lit up with pride.
Li Xiyue smiled and praised, "Ah Xun told me that when Grandpa was young, he was known as the Northern Tiger. The Japanese devils were so scared when they heard your name that they ran away with their tails between their legs."
"Hahaha..." Chu Xingbang laughed heartily, "That's right, those little Japanese devils, cowards! They have no guts!"
In open warfare, the Japanese army is no match for the Chinese army; they only know how to do despicable and vile things, as stinking as rats in a sewer.
Chu Xingbang turned to a page and pointed to the little girl with her hair in a small bun and wearing a pink tutu. "This is Xun's older sister. We all call her Xiao Xiangxiang. She's a very cute child. If she were still alive, she would have been married and had children long ago."
“My wife and I had five sons, and all five of them had sons. Only my wife’s parents had a daughter, whom the whole family doted on like a treasure… It’s all that idiot fifth son’s fault for ruining my precious granddaughter…”
The fifth son is Chu Xun's father.
Li Xiyue was also extremely regretful. With so many boys, only one girl was born. She was pampered like a treasure. If she hadn't had this accident, she would definitely be living a very happy life.
"Let's not talk about it anymore." Chu Xingbang was worried about scaring his future granddaughter-in-law, so he quickly put on a smile. "Yueyue, if that brat Chu Xun dares to bully you, tell Grandpa, and Grandpa will deal with him."
Li Xiyue smiled and agreed, "Okay."
After making the arrangements, Chu Xun personally drove Li Xiyue to the military sanatorium.
It was in a relatively secluded place, where seriously wounded soldiers and retired soldiers without children to take care of them lived.
There were three layers of guards at the entrance, and they checked everything at each level. It took quite a bit of effort to get in.
Cars are not allowed to drive in; you can only walk in, and you cannot bring anything in; you must go in empty-handed.
The sanatorium is divided into many areas, each managed separately, and guarded at the entrance. Visitors can only go to the area where their family members are located and cannot approach other areas.
Chu Xun was a frequent visitor, so the guards knew him well and didn't ask too many questions. But since it was Li Xiyue's first time, the guards checked her several times before letting her in.
Coincidentally, Chu Xun's father, Chu Ruilin, and the original owner's maternal grandfather, Liao Qingshan, lived in the same area.
Each area consists of two separate houses, built facing each other.
The house is spacious and has a shared yard with flowers, trees and shrubs. Except for not being able to leave the yard, it's great in every way.
When the two entered the courtyard, a tall, robust old man with gray hair was practicing Tai Chi in the snow, dressed in thin clothes.
He had a ruddy complexion, was agile, and moved with lightness; it was clear at a glance that he was in very good health.
He was the original owner's maternal grandfather.
Li Xiyue's eyes inexplicably reddened, and her voice trembled with tears, "Grandpa."
“…Yueyue?” Liao Qingshan heard the familiar voice, turned around, and stared blankly for a long time before hurrying over. “Is it my Yueyue?”
Li Xiyue ran over and hugged the old man, "Grandpa, it's me, I've come to see you!"
