Chapter 25 Father-in-law Stores Grain, I Store Guns; Father-in-law is My Granary!

In Huai De County, Jilin Province, in the village of Nanwaizi, the head of the Yu family, Yu Wendou, stood atop a mud fortress, gazing southeast.

A few days ago, his daughter had sent a telegram saying she was coming ho for a visit. This had made Yu Wendou extrely excited.

He had been very fond of his daughter since she was young, and even her na, “Fengzhi,” revealed his deep affection. From the mont she was born, he spared no effort in her education—she started learning at three, entered school at eight, and by thirteen, she was enrolled at the Fengtian Won’s Normal School!

In this era, his daughter was a rare “educated young woman”!

“Only… it’s a pity she didn’t marry the young marshal!” Yu Wendou sighed.

General Zhang was the “King of the Northeast,” and as long as nothing unexpected happened, Young Marshal Zhang Liuzhi would undoubtedly beco the future commander of the Fengtian Army. Though Zhang Xueming was also from the Zhang family, he was the second son and likely wouldn’t inherit the family business. Despite this, Yu Wendou didn’t dare speak too much about it. Even marrying Zhang Xueming, the second son, was a great match for their family.

As Yu Wendou was lost in thought, a keen-eyed servant suddenly shouted, “Look! Master, there’s dust rising over there!”

Everyone looked towards the distant hills, where a cavalry of military riders in green uniforms was approaching. As the troops drew nearer, the entire village of Nanwaizi gasped in astonishnt. The army had 800 n, all riding tall white horses. In the front of the line, soldiers were carrying 18 machine guns, and behind them, four cannons were being hauled along.

“My goodness, is this the army of the great general of Fengtian? What magnificent cavalry!”

“With this firepower, they could take Changchun in half a day!”

“I heard Young Marshal has been fighting bandits. All the horse bandits in the Northeast call him the ‘Living King of Hell’—he’s unstoppable!”

This was Zhang Xueming and Yu Fengzhi’s first visit to her ho after their marriage. To show off his strength, Zhang Xueming brought all his troops except for the one stationed at the prisoner worksite. These troops, with their upgraded white horses, ca in a mighty procession, their military presence enough to take one’s breath away.

…..

While the people of Nanwaizi village marveled at the military might of Zhang Xueming’s cavalry, Zhang Xueming himself, riding on his white horse, glanced at the mud fortress and couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow.

“What a big fortress! Fengzhi, is this your ho?”

“What’s that round building over there? It looks like a missile silo!”

Yu Fengzhi rolled her eyes. Though she didn’t know what a missile silo was, seeing her familiar hotown, she proudly said, “That’s my family’s grain storage! We have a total of 188 storages, and each can hold 500,000 pounds of grain!”

Each storage could hold half a million pounds of grain. With over a hundred storages, how much grain did they store? The Yu family truly was a wealthy rchant family in the Northeast.

No wonder her “cheap” old father wanted to marry into such a family. Zhang Xueming smiled more broadly as he looked at the fortress.

“Father-in-law stores grain, I store guns. Father-in-law is my granary!”

“This visit to your ho was absolutely the right decision!”

Zhang Xueming suddenly pulled Yu Fengzhi onto his horse and flicked the reins.

“Let’s go! We’ll visit your father-in-law now!”

“Today, we’re going to give him a big surprise!”

Yu Fengzhi was taken aback.

“Husband, be careful not to startle the baby!”

Zhang Xueming chuckled. He wasn’t the reckless type. In the system, he knew the twins inside her were growing strong!

…..

Soon, Zhang Xueming’s troops arrived at the mud fortress in Nanwaizi village. By now, the entire village had been decorated with lanterns and ribbons.

Since Yu Fengzhi had married the Young Marshal, the village had been holding a banquet for three days. Whether they ca from the north or the south, whether locals or passersby, anyone who offered a word of good fortune could sit down and eat for free.

Today was the day for the daughter’s return to her parental ho, and the atmosphere had reached its peak. More than a hundred tables were set up on the wheat field, and over thirty pigs had been slaughtered.

Now, seeing their new son-in-law arrive, the drum team began to play, and fireworks erupted.

“Good son-in-law! Please take a seat!”

Yu Wendou, who was over fifty but still in good health, had a radiant complexion today. Seeing his son-in-law’s outstanding appearance, he was filled with joy. He hurriedly invited Zhang Xueming to sit. Around him, village elders praised him.

“What a fine young man!”

“No wonder he’s from the Zhang family, the son of a tiger!”

“To marry into the Zhang family, our Yu family’s ancestors must be smiling!”

“Yes, this is the best fortune Fengzhi could have in eight lifetis!”

Zhang Xueming humbly cupped his hands.

“I dare not take credit. Marrying a wife like Fengzhi is the greatest blessing in my life!”

Of course!

With a monthly allowance of 2 million silver dollars, that was more than 60,000 silver dollars every night he spent with Fengzhi!

What a divine wife this was!

Just then, suddenly, everyone heard a creaking sound from the baggage cart Zhang Xueming brought. Two horses were struggling to pull a cart towards the banquet.

The cart seed to be carrying sothing heavy, as deep tracks were left in the ground. The driver cracked the whip, urging the horses to move forward.

As the cart neared the banquet, the wheels finally broke under the heavy load. With a loud crash, silver dollars poured out of the cart like a waterfall, quickly forming a small mound.

“This! This is silver!”

“So much!”

“My goodness, how much is that? It’s piled up like a mountain!”

Yu Wendou, a wealthy rchant, had invited many business associates to the banquet. These people were seasoned and imdiately estimated that the cart carried at least a million silver dollars.

With so much money from Young Marshal Zhang, what was he planning to do?

As everyone speculated, Zhang Xueming smiled. The cart was intentionally arranged to create this effect!

He slowly stood up and cupped his hands toward the crowd.

“Father-in-law! Today, for Fengzhi’s visit, these two million silver dollars!”

“My return gift!”
