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

Chapter 826 Still pretending with me? If you keep pretending, you'll be a bachelor forever.
What Zhao Lamei didn't know was that after Grandpa Xiao left, he didn't go to the hospital.

He went directly to the police station, and after meeting the person, asked, "How's it going? Any progress?"

When Director Wu, who was in charge of the matter at the Public Security Bureau, saw him come in, he said, "Old Chief, we were just about to contact you, but I didn't expect you to come here."

The two talked as they entered the office.

Grandpa Xiao took a deep breath: "Speak, what new discoveries have you made?"

Director Wu poured the old man a glass of water before speaking: "According to the mother of Comrade Xiao Nianchun's husband's eldest sister-in-law, someone approached her and asked if she wanted to avenge her daughter, and that she would receive a sum of money after the deed was done."

The man thought of his daughter still serving time in prison, and also of the money he would receive, so he agreed.

Grandpa Xiao had already guessed that something was amiss: "Then how did she know that Nianchun was going out at that time?"

He had a bad feeling that this matter was probably related to his mother-in-law.

Then Director Wu said, "She met Comrade Xiao Nianchun's mother-in-law today and got the information from her."

Grandpa Xiao's breathing became heavier and heavier. He didn't dare to think about what his daughter would do if she knew that her mother-in-law had indirectly harmed her and her child.
Her mother-in-law hadn't come to help with either of her previous two pregnancies because her eldest son's wife had committed an unforgivable crime, which caused a rift between the second son and his wife and the eldest son.

Only after learning that his second daughter-in-law was pregnant again did he think of coming over in order to ease the relationship between the second son and his wife and the eldest son, but he didn't expect that this kind of thing would happen again.

She knows her daughter's personality best. If Nianchun knew the truth, her relationship with her in-laws would probably only be that of enemies, after all, these are two little lives.

Grandpa Xiao sighed softly before speaking again: "Any clues about the person behind this?"

Director Wu leaned closer to him: "We have indeed found some clues, and I've already sent several teams to investigate." Seeing his posture, Old Master Xiao's heart tightened: "You suspect someone here is..."

He didn't say the words "insider".

Director Wu nodded slightly: "Yes, that's exactly what you think. So, each of the groups that went out this time was only responsible for a part of the task. I also want to see who this person is."

On the other side, Grandpa Guo looked at the fish that the guard had put on the car and said, "You're really something, kid. You've kept it well hidden."

Lu Weijun remained calm: "Uncle Guo, it's not what you think. Don't ruin the young lady's reputation."

"I know what kind of person you are. So many people advised you before, but you didn't listen to a word. But suddenly you've figured it out. It's not that you like that girl. Or do you have masochistic tendencies and got beaten up by her to wake up?"

"Yes, I got beaten up and that's how I woke up, so you should thank them properly, but don't say anything else."

"You really have no interest in that girl?"

"This matter can't be resolved, can it?"

"Are you stupid? That girl is beautiful, capable, and has a good job. If you like her, you should hurry up and make your move. If you keep dawdling, it'll be too late."

Seeing that he was rambling on and on, Lu Weijun simply closed his eyes. He did have feelings for the other person, but he had only been in the army for a short time and was still just a squad leader.
But as soon as he closed his eyes, all he could see was that girl's face, and he snapped his eyes open again.

Seeing his expression, Old Master Guo said with a hint of exasperation, "Stop pretending with me. If you keep this up, you'll be a bachelor forever."
