Even though Jiang Xiaoxiao has the alcohol with her, she can’t just take it out so openly.
Who carries alcohol with them all the ti anyway?
Besides, apart from this small shoulder bag, she has nothing else on her; she can’t possibly say there’s a jug of alcohol inside this little bag.
Even if she has to pretend, it should at least look convincing, so she asked Mr. Wang to take her back to her sister’s place.
Fortunately, her sister’s place is just two streets away from the old man’s house, and with the Jeep, the speed is quite fast.
Her sister and brother-in-law are currently at work, so there’s actually no one at ho.
She has the key, opened the courtyard door, and pretended to carry out a jug of alcohol.
Mr. Wang took a look, and exclaid, oh wow, there’s really alcohol here!
The alcohol is contained in a large transparent glass bottle, which is really quite big.
Inside, you can see pink liquid with fresh red peaches soaked in it.
It looks very pleasing to the eye, but it’s hard to say how it tastes. He quickly jumped out of the car, carefully put the jug inside, as he couldn’t just let a girl do such physical work.
The two took less than five minutes, and the car was already back at Mr. Wang’s father’s door.
They got out of the car, with Mr. Wang carrying the jug, leading Jiang Xiaoxiao inside.
"Our old man is quite straightforward, sotis careless with his words. When you go in, don’t get upset if he says sothing wrong."
To put it bluntly, their old man lacks emotional intelligence.
Jiang Xiaoxiao laughed, "Mr. Wang, there’s no need to be so polite with , don’t I know it! No matter what, he’s still an elder; it’s fine if his words are a bit harsh. I’m also a straightforward person. We might just hit it off in terms of personality.
Besides, I’m here to give gifts to the old man; people all say you don’t hit soone who’s smiling. If he accepts my gift, he surely can’t vent anger on . I suppose even if the old man’s ignorant, he wouldn’t do that."
Mr. Wang laughed heartily without holding back.
This Jiang Xiaoxiao is quite bold, just because she ran into him; if it had been another leader she talked to like this, she’d definitely offend them.
"Dad, Mom, I brought a guest."
Mr. Wang’s father, this yard in the military district.
The place is neat and tidy, with a yard both in the front and back, and the corridor is covered with grapevines.
This house doesn’t look like sothing an ordinary person can afford, indicating that Mr. Wang should be a child of a military family.
Probably hearing his voice, soone imdiately opened the door inside.
"You youngster, how many days has it been since you ca ho? You still rember this is ho, huh! I thought you were so wild, you wouldn’t even consider this as ho."
Inside, a woman in her 50s was nagging Mr. Wang while opening the door, but when her gaze fell on Jiang Xiaoxiao, her smile grew even broader.
"Oh dear, a guest? Co in, co in."
Jiang Xiaoxiao quickly went in.
The middle-aged woman deliberately fell behind, nudging her son with her elbow, giving a knowing look towards Jiang Xiaoxiao’s back.
She was asking her son, could this be a daughter-in-law he brought ho?
Mr. Wang blushed; his mom was obsessed with the idea of him getting married.
Apart from continuously introducing him to soone for blind dates, whenever she saw him with a girl, she would imagine wildly, wishing to imdiately marry the girl into their family, so she could have a grandchild by tomorrow.
Mr. Wang hurriedly shook his head, placing a finger on his lips to signal his mom to not say anything foolish.
He and Jiang Xiaoxiao were nearly a generation apart; his admiration for Jiang Xiaoxiao was purely platonic, absolutely devoid of any romantic notions.
This revolutionary friendship must not be ruined by his mom; Jiang Xiaoxiao was a person of great talent!
If he offended her, and she refused to see him in the future, he would be closing himself off from opportunities.
His career had been going smoothly recently, thanks to Jiang Xiaoxiao.
"Oh, Old Fang ans this?"
"Uncle Wang, you still don’t know about my dad, do you? He values his face too much. If he opens his mouth, Peizhong wouldn’t need to go to the countryside at all. But he’s just too proud, even if he worries to death about his grandson, he won’t speak up.
I have no choice, Peizhong has to go to the countryside. But now I hear there’s a need for people to support the border construction; Peizhong hasn’t suffered like this at ho. How can he bear it if he really goes to the border?
The old man is so worried, but doesn’t say a word. I have no choice, I can only ask you for help."
Ye Hua’s voice was clear to Jiang Xiaoxiao.
Indeed, such a thing had happened, but back in the days when she was there, it had nothing to do with her.
Back then, she was muddled, yet to adapt to the farm life.
At that ti, there was no talk of contracting land to households, in plain terms, no small collectives at all.
She was not good at work, the team leader disliked her, finding fault with her in every way, and her roommates, living together with her, also disliked her.
Jiang Xiaoxiao then was at a low point in life, not caring about such matters, though she heard about them, she didn’t take them to heart.
Whether she had a quota or not, she didn’t care.
In fact, this team leader Li Dahu, even though he didn’t like her in the past life, didn’t send her to the border for construction either. It was because of considering their physical conditions as unsuitable for running to the construction support.
In such matters, it never had anything to do with Fang Peizhong.
Naturally, Ye Hua wouldn’t co here to seek help for a supposed daughter either.
"Old Fang is really sothing, not willing to speak up for such matters; it only takes a call. Alright, alright, I got it, I’ll look into this and ensure Peizhong won’t have to go to the countryside.
The old leader has done so much for the country in his life, endured so much hardship; now that he’s old, why shouldn’t his grandson enjoy so benefits?"
The old man’s strong voice effectively gave a positive response.
"Uncle Wang, thank you so much, this is just a small token from us. If it wasn’t for you this ti, I wouldn’t know what to do."
Ye Hua repeatedly expressed her gratitude.
"There’s no need to be so polite. Old Fang was my leader before, also a friend; we’re close like that. Helping him with sothing like this, it’s nothing. If you keep being polite, then it’s too formal. Stay for lunch today, I’ll have your aunt make so nice dishes to treat you well."
"Uncle Wang, it’s really not necessary; if you treat like this, I’ll feel even more indebted, troubling you with this matter is already enough. I’ll hurry back to tell Peizhong this news.
Because of this, the child hasn’t been able to sleep or eat well these past few days."
Mr. Wang suddenly spoke up, "Dad, soone is here. I also brought soone over."
Four eyes t.
Ye Hua was so surprised she almost jumped up.
"How is it you?"
