1970s: A hot-tempered wife who accompanied a soldier to the military compound and made a fortune.

Chapter 505 I'll take that seriously.
Miao Yiqiu handed over the towel in her hand: "What do you think Jiang Huiwen is trying to do?"

Old Master Xiao glanced at his stepmother but did not answer her question.

They had worked together before, and he knew that Jiang Huiwen had a bit of a crush on him. He had already established a relationship with his deceased wife, Han Chunyi, so he always kept his distance from her whenever they met. Others might not notice, but he knew that this woman probably hated him and Chunyi.

After he married his wife, he reminded her, but she didn't take it to heart at the time. She really regrets it now. If she had known that parting would be forever, she would have taken him with her.

Thinking about the news he received today, he was waiting for them to dig deeper into what Jiang Huiwen had done over the years.

Miao Yiqiu noticed that the old man was lost in thought again: "What are you thinking about? You've been staring blankly at things a lot lately?"

After draping the towel over his shoulders, Grandpa Xiao returned to his bedroom: "In a few days, I'd like to make a trip to Haishi myself."

Hearing this, Miao Yiqiu frowned: "How many times have you been turned away over the years? Are you still going?"

Grandpa Xiao sighed softly: "It's understandable that they're angry because I failed to protect their daughter and sister."

"But so many years have passed, do you expect them to blame you for the rest of their lives?"

Thinking of something, he said, "How about we let Changjiang make the trip for you?"

Grandpa Xiao waved his hand and said, "Grandma doesn't have many years left to live, so I'll make the trip myself."

These words again. It would be a lie to say that Miao Yiqiu wasn't heartbroken. Although they were a couple who married later in life, they had been together for so many years. However, his attitude towards his two sets of parents-in-law was so different that she couldn't stand it.

No matter what, she had given birth to a daughter for him, and she felt resentful whenever she thought about it.

Seeing her expression, Grandpa Xiao frowned slightly: "Is something on your mind?" Miao Yiqiu quickly snapped out of her daze and waved her hand, saying, "No, I'm just thinking about something."

When Grandpa Xiao heard her say that, he said, "What are you thinking about? You're so focused on it."

She finally couldn't hold back any longer: "My dad's 80th birthday is next month, can you come back with me?"

Grandpa Xiao turned around and saw Miao Yiqiu looking nervous as she said, "I was just asking casually. If you don't have time or don't want to go, that's fine."

Grandpa Xiao knew what she was nervous about: "Since it's a birthday celebration, I will naturally accompany you back. I will postpone my trip to Haishi and go back to Suzhou at that time."

Miao Yiqiu was surprised that he actually agreed this time: "Then I'll take it seriously."

It's not that she lacks confidence; it's just that her nephews have caused a lot of trouble over the years, and she has had to ask the old man for help countless times. After this happened so many times, the old man has become disillusioned.

Now that she had received a positive answer, she was extremely excited.

Actually, the old man had some ulterior motives when he married Miao Yiqiu.

At that time, Miao Yiqiu was seriously ill and her health was not good. The doctor said that she would have to take good care of herself in the future, which might also affect her fertility.

The old man thought that if someone came into the family, they could help take care of the household and his eldest son. Even if they couldn't have children, it wouldn't matter, since he already had a son and wasn't afraid of having no descendants.

However, Miao Yiqiu clearly didn't think that way. After marriage, she frequently sought medical help to adjust her body and risked her life to give birth to a daughter, which put her at ease a little.

Thinking of his daughter, he couldn't help but worry: "Yude, if you're free tomorrow, come with me to visit Nianchun. Her due date is approaching, and I'm a little worried about her."
