Qin Xiang'an finally boarded the train back to Northwest China. During his two days at the Xiao family's house, he experienced a kind of family affection he had never felt before.

It would be impossible for Qin Xiang'an to say that he was completely unmoved.

On the day he left, Xiao's father and Xie Yun both came to the train station to see him off.

She also brought him back a lot of things, all of which Xie Yun had carefully prepared.

She actually wanted to go to the Northwest with her son. He had been found with great difficulty, and she couldn't bear to leave him at all.

But Qin Xiang'an persuaded her to stay calm. She knew that Xie Yun's health hadn't been very good these past two days, and the conditions in the Northwest were nowhere near as good as those in Beijing.

He dared not let her go, but Xie Yun was eventually persuaded to stay.

Xie Yun was determined to recover her health so that she could go to the Northwest to find her son.

She had wronged him for so many years, and she just wanted to make it up to him properly.

Watching the train slowly disappear into the distance, Xie Yun felt a pang of sadness, wishing she could catch up and walk with her son.

Xiao Yuchen supported his mother, saying, "Mom, don't be sad. Once you feel better, I'll take you to find Fourth Brother."

"it is good."

"Let's go back," Xiao's father said to them after the train had left.

"Let's go, Mom." Xiao Yuchen helped his mother walk towards the train station entrance.

On the train, Lao Lu and the others sat down next to Qin Xiang'an in shock.

They asked one after another, "Old Qin, what's going on? How did you become Commander Xiao's son?"

If they hadn't overheard their conversation on the train platform and hadn't seen the almost identical faces of Lao Qin and Commander Xiao, they wouldn't have known that Lao Qin was Commander Xiao's son.

"Yeah, Lao Qin, tell me what happened! Aren't you from Shanghai?"

They already knew that their hometown was still in the countryside, but now how did their father become Commander Xiao?

Qin Xiang'an had no choice but to recount the whole story.

Old Fang: "My goodness, Old Qin, you're something else! You actually have such a family background. Commander Xiao is the commander of Beijing. Wouldn't it be easy for you to be transferred to Beijing in the future?"

Qin Xiang'an glared at him. "What nonsense are you talking about? Even if I've reunited with them, I've never thought of relying on their connections."

"I've gotten to where I am today through my own hard work and ability, and I don't want to hear that a second time."

Old Fang realized he had misspoke and, seeing that Old Qin was really angry, quickly said, "Old Qin, don't be angry, I misspoke."

Lao Lu glared at Lao Fang, thinking that he really had no sense of propriety in his words.

"Old Fang, you too. Is Old Qin that kind of person? Even if he didn't acknowledge Commander Xiao as a relative."

"With the military merits that Lao Qin has accumulated over the years, he will definitely have the opportunity to be transferred to Beijing in the future. You still can't watch your mouth."

"I know I was wrong, I won't say it again." Old Fang patted his mouth.

Old Chen stepped in to smooth things over, "Old Qin, what did Aunt Xiao prepare for you just now? Look at how Manman is carrying a big bag of things. I must say, Aunt Xiao is really good to you."

Qin Xiang'an then remembered the large bag Xie Yun had just stuffed into his hands.

He picked up the bundle beside him and opened it to take a look.

There were quite a few foods inside, including malted milk powder, sachima (a type of Chinese pastry), and chocolate.

Old Chen and the others saw a commotion among the group.

Old Chen exclaimed, "Wow, so much food! Old Qin, Aunt Xiao is so good to you! Most of these things are only sold at Friendship Store, and they're not cheap either."

Qin Xiang'an hadn't expected there to be so much food in there.

Old Lu: "It's definitely not cheap. Take this malted milk powder and sachima chocolate, and all these other foods, which one of them is cheap? You need tickets to buy them all."

Qin Xiang'an took out a pack of Sachima and let them share it. Judging from their reactions, they were clearly craving it.

"Here, everyone can share."

"Oh, Lao Qin, you're the best."

Everyone quickly gathered around and finished off the whole bag of Sachima.

Seeing that they were still looking at his bundle, Qin Xiang'an quickly wrapped it up.

Seeing how afraid that Lao Qin was going to snatch it, Lao Lu found it rather unusual.

He couldn't help but joke, "Hey Lao Lu, is it really necessary? There's so much food, why not share some more?"

Qin Xiang'an frowned: "Weren't they already split up?"

We've already given them a bag of Sachima (a type of Chinese pastry), and these people still want more.

Old Zhu: "Old Qin, that's not fair of you. There are so many of us here, and this little bit of Sachima isn't even enough to fill a tooth gap."

Qin Xiang'an still didn't give it to him, and placed the bundle on the other side of his body.

"I need to save these for my wife."

The meaning is clear: no.

These are all good things. He was even thinking of applying to have his wife come to the family compound as soon as he got back. He was saving all of these for his wife to eat.

Several roughnecks widened their eyes instantly. Was this still the cold-hearted and ruthless Old Qin they knew?

Lao Lu: "Old Qin, you're something else, already thinking about your wife."

Old Chen: "It's not something I've been thinking about right now; I've probably been thinking about it all along. Look at all this food I've prepared for my wife."

Lao Fang: "When I get back to the army, I'll ask my mother to help me find a wife."

He's getting on in years and wants to have a wife and children.

Old Zhu: "It's good to have a wife, unlike the rest of us who are all single."

Old Lu: "I'm not one of you guys. I have a wife and kids."

As soon as Lao Lu finished speaking, he was met with several sharp glares.

That old trick really knows how to hit a nerve, bringing up the very thing you don't want to talk about.

Old Lu wasn't afraid of them at all. He stuck out his neck and said, "What? I didn't say anything wrong. But you guys aren't young anymore. You really need to find partners soon, or you'll become old men and no one will want you."

Upon hearing this, Lao Zhu and his gang immediately came over and, without saying a word, started beating Lao Lu.

Old Lu's words are really unpleasant. What do you mean by "old man"? They're only in their early twenties, how can they be considered old men?

Old Lu was beaten so badly that he begged for mercy repeatedly.

Qin Xiang'an didn't join them in their playful antics; he was preoccupied with his own thoughts.

I left home the day after my wedding, and several months have passed. I don't know how she is doing at home.
