"Are you going back now?" Qin Qing sat in the car and looked at Xiang Chubei in confusion.
Major General Xiang smiled, leaned over and fastened her seat belt, and then said, "Well, wife, don't be afraid!"
Qin Qing was confused by what he said, but Xiang Chu Bei had a firm expression. He kissed her forehead, then started the car, held the steering wheel with one hand, and intertwined Qin Qing's fingers with the other.
After returning to Xiang's home, Qin Qing realized why Xiang Chubei's expression was so firm.
Although the Xiang family has only a few heirs, the old man of the Xiang family has many subordinates, and they are all like family members. There are also a large group of people who have been taken care of by the old man in these years, so the survival of the Xiang family is related to a large number of people.
Qin Qing and Xiang Chubei were about to enter the second door when they heard a majestic voice inside, it was an old man.
"Nonsense, you're getting involved in my family affairs!" The old man's voice sounded very angry.
Qin Qing stopped at Xiang Chu Bei. Qin Qing looked at Xiang Chu Bei in confusion, and Xiang Chu Bei had a faint smile on his face. Qin Qing knew that Xiang Chu Bei would smile like this, which meant that
He is very angry, and the consequences for the other party will be dire.
"Chief, we are also concerned about your reputation. Have you forgotten that eleven years ago you helped Qin Tian under pressure. You were almost investigated that time. Chief, do you still want to see him?"
"Chief, Master Chu got married privately, and there is nothing we can do about it after finding out. After all, it is a military marriage, and divorce will have a bad impact on Master Chu. But this time, we can't let Qin Tian show up no matter what we say."
"Chief, you must know that this birthday banquet is attended by all..."
"That's enough!" The old man's voice was like a bell: "When will it be your turn to comment on my family affairs? I haven't been out for many years, do you really think that I have lost my temper?!"
Xiang Chubei felt that his little hands were shaking a little, and he turned his head to look at Qin Qing. Qin Qing's face was pale, her lips were trembling, and she looked down at the ground helplessly, her eyes distracted.
Xiang Chubei knew that Qin Qing had always been brooding about her father's affairs, and she was most afraid that others would look down upon her because of her father's past affairs. Xiang Chubei felt distressed, and he pulled Qin Qing into his arms and patted her back gently.
.
"Don't be afraid, I'm here!"
"Achu..." Qin Qing's voice was filled with tears.
Xiang Chubei closed his eyes. He had known since he was a child that his Qin Qing was a fool with a strong appearance and a fragile heart, so he had always protected her because once she was hurt, it would be difficult to recover.
"Needless to say, I will hold a family dinner this time. Do you want to come or not? Anyway, I see your old faces every year and I don't see any flowers growing on any of them." The old man said with disgust and snorted coldly.
.
The juniors couldn't sit still and hurriedly began to apologize.
"Chief, that's not what we meant. Oh, we just think..."
"How about this, chief, hold two birthday banquets, one at the hotel and one at home, so Qin Tian doesn't have to attend the one at the hotel."
"This is good, this is good!"
"Everyone, get out of here!" The old man's crutches hit the ground heavily, and he roared: "Everyone, get out of here!"
"Chief..."
"Why are you leaving in such a hurry!" Xiang Chubei hugged Qin Qing in and smiled evilly: "Where did you go? Tell me again, uncles and uncles?"
Xiang Chubei pulled Qin Qing to sit down on the sofa and looked around. Although he called "Uncle, Uncle", there was no respect on his face.
"Chief, this..."
The old man snorted in a deep voice: "Then say it again!"
"This..." Everyone looked at Qin Qing with contempt: "When a man speaks, it's better for women to avoid it."
Xiang Chu Bei raised his eyebrows and looked at the middle-aged man who spoke. The middle-aged man was wearing a navy uniform and carrying major general epaulettes on his shoulders. He looked quite imposing.
"Is it possible that Uncle Yu was born by a man?" Xiang Chubei rolled his eyes lazily and chuckled: "What age are we in now? We still engage in gender discrimination. No wonder..."
Major General Yu blushed before Xiang Chubei said anything. Some time ago, his army was inspected by the military department, and the head of the inspection was Li Ruimin. If Li Ruimin hadn't helped him, he would have been killed long ago.
Was dismissed.
"Who else?" Xiang Chubei raised his hand and wiped his short hair.
A very dignified-looking soldier stood up, with a low military rank and a loud voice.
"Young Master Chu is not being kind. My father-in-law will entertain you by himself."
"I didn't ask you to pay for the birthday banquet. In other words, my own grandfather's birthday banquet is not your turn to fart here!" Xiang Chubei rolled his eyes. He had many ways to deal with military generals.
Qin Qing didn't want to see the old man's birthday party messed up because of herself. Besides, she knew very well that the relationship between the Xiang family and everyone present complemented each other.
"My dad has been in poor health recently and is not suitable for traveling. Grandpa, I'm sorry. I apologize to you on my dad's behalf, but dad said that gifts will be delivered when people are not available." Qin Qing said in a low voice, sorting out her thoughts.
Later, she became fearless.
She knows better than anyone else that even if the Xiang family finally manages to get her father to participate, her parents will definitely not come. When she left, her father said that if she could stay away from the pond of politics, she would never go back again.
"Grandpa, Achu, I accept your thoughts on behalf of Dad."
"They're all here. Where did you say it? Let's say it again!" Li Ruimin also came back, looking quite rushed.
After the death of Xiang Yongyi, Li Ruimin quickly entered the military department with her tough tactics and rose to the rank of deputy minister. This woman is admired by many men.
"Minister Li!" Most of the people present were from the military department, and they all saluted respectfully when they saw her.
Li Ruimin smiled kindly and waved her hand: "What are you doing? Why are you so reserved at home? Besides, dad is still here."
This is said easily, but it means that in her own family, they have no need to respect her, and naturally they have no right to interfere with her family affairs.
"Mom..." Qin Qing whispered.
Li Ruimin raised his hand to stop her and continued: "Dad, what's wrong? Who made you angry, Xiao Chu or Qin Qing?"
"Huh!" The old man snorted angrily.
This slap made everyone present speechless, covering their mouths and coughing.
"Xiao Liu, prepare more for dinner, there are guests at home." Li Ruimin ordered, smiling and saying to everyone: "Let's go after dinner."
"No, no..." Everyone said goodbye.
Li Ruimin sent them off with a smile. It wasn't until everyone left that she said with a smile: "Why do we have so much rice at home to feed these annoying things? Xiao Chu, Xiao Qing, it's time to eat."
Qin Qing didn't know how to thank Xiang Chubei's family, with tears in her eyes.
Li Ruimin smiled and patted her on the shoulder: "We are all a family. We are not allowed to leave you alone in the future."
When Xiang Chubei returned to the room, Qin Qing was standing at the window in a daze. He stood behind her and looked at her lonely back, feeling heartbroken. For eleven years, not everyone cared about that matter, but she kept letting it go.
