The little dumpling is five and a half years old, which made his father so angry that his head split

However, that's really how you have to deal with certain people.

If you act arrogantly, he will back down.

Li Tian secretly resolved that next time a similar situation arose, she really didn't need to worry too much and couldn't be too rigid.

If you can't take him down, it's good to hit him a few times to vent your anger.

There's no need to be so rigid in life.

When doing things, there's no need to follow all the rules.

Telling Grandma is the same as telling Grandpa.

Li Tian had no control over what her grandfather would do or could do.

I don't want to be swayed by it.

After all, people at different levels have completely different ways of thinking about and solving problems.

You punch me, I kick you? That's pointless.

Now that they've faced off, they'll both try to defeat each other in one fell swoop when the time is right.

Sure enough, Nie Qian didn't mention what happened at noon at the dinner table.

The meal was enjoyed by everyone.

After taking an evening walk to aid digestion, Old Shen took Ji Mingze's pulse again.

"General Ji was in good physical condition, but people who have experienced hardship are bound to have some kind of deficiency, and the more injuries he sustained in battle, the greater the deficiency became."

"But it's not a big problem. Just take the medicinal diet and try to stick to it for a while."

After retiring, Nie Qian's biggest concern was her husband's health.

They were quite familiar with his health condition.

Hearing that Elder Shen said all I needed to do was eat medicinal food, I felt reassured.

Ji Mingze is not averse to medicinal cuisine.

If I can live a few more years, I'd be happy to eat medicinal cuisine every day.

Old Shen took out the two prescriptions he had prepared.

"This first prescription is stronger; take it for three months first. If you feel significantly better, switch to the second prescription, which tastes better, and you can continue taking it without worry."

"If it works after three months, but isn't very noticeable, then continue for six months. After six months, switch to the second prescription."

Nie Qian put away the prescription, put on her reading glasses, and carefully wrote down each and every detail.

"Old Shen, thank you. Old Ji is not afraid of hardship or difficulty at work, but he hates drinking bitter medicine."

"It's a problem left over from drinking too many herbal medicines when I was young."

Ji Mingze smiled first.

I no longer feel that my spouse has brought up my shortcomings.

That's a fact. Does anyone enjoy suffering?

He didn't believe it.

"Old Shen, I've booked your plane tickets for the day after tomorrow. When you come to Shanghai again, be sure to visit my home."

Mr. Shen was flattered to hear about the airfare, as it exceeded his expectations.

Airplane tickets are harder to buy than sleeper berths.

"Actually, a sleeper berth would suffice; you've really gone to great lengths, General."

Ji Mingze waved his hand.

Those in positions of power are even less inclined to owe favors.

Moreover, for Li Tian's sake, he should also take good care of the guests.

He has no worries in this life, and everything he does in the future will be for the benefit of the younger generation.

As the old saying goes, "Use only three parts of your intelligence, and leave seven parts for your descendants."

The same principle applies to networking.

After returning to the room, Nie Qian recounted Li Tian's experience during the day.

Ji Mingze remained silent for a moment.

"Ji Ying lacks courage; he probably won't accomplish anything. I'll slowly think of a suitable candidate."

Nie Qian knew her husband was concerned, so she stopped asking questions.

It's simply a matter of having someone find evidence of wrongdoing first, and then reporting the matter to the relevant authorities.

"Didn't you tell You Xintian that you were coming? You didn't even bring the child to see us."

Nie Qian patted her husband on the shoulder.

"Stop nitpicking. Dongxiang has a bit of a cold, and Youxin said she'll bring the kids over in a couple of days. Today, her brother brought over a big cake and a basket of tropical fruit; that's a thoughtful gesture."

Hearing his wife say that, Ji Mingze didn't say anything.

Logically speaking, he has three sons, but none of them are around. If something really happens, he can't rely on any of them.

They certainly have no shortage of manpower, but there are some things they still need their family members to accompany them with.

"I'd like to transfer Ji Ping back before I retire. What do you think?"

Nie Qian certainly hopes to have a son by her side.

The staff members follow orders, and when something happens, their son has to help them come up with ideas and make decisions.

"I also hope Ji Ping will come back. He's been training in the south for a few years, it's time for him to come back. This is where his roots are."

"only......"

Ji Mingze patted his wife's hand.

"Don't worry about Chu Wei, she can't cause any trouble. Now that things are more open, even released prisoners can make a living as long as they are willing to work."

"As for Zhu Lingling, let the boss handle it himself. This is his fate."

"Choosing a partner is an important decision, and once you've made it, you have to take responsibility for it."

"If he can properly handle his personal life issues, his abilities in all aspects will improve, which is a kind of growth."

Nie Qian gets worried when her eldest son's marriage is mentioned.

I'm terrified that the Zhu family will become the second Chu family.

Zhu Lingling is a very good person, but her family is a complicated matter, and they will likely cause her a lot of trouble in the future.

That's why the marriage proposal was postponed.

"The boss said Zhu Lingling intends to study abroad. What do you think?"

Ji Mingze gave a soft snort.

"Running away from problems doesn't solve anything; I still prefer people who take responsibility."

"She's been gone for years, haven't Ji Ping and others waited?"

"I think we should remind Ji Ping to make a choice sooner rather than later. Once he's made a choice, he shouldn't regret it. He should just keep going. Hesitation will only hurt feelings and waste energy."

After Ji Mingze finished speaking, he lay down.

Children and grandchildren have their own destinies; he is willing to help each one get on their feet, but he won't follow them around forever.

How far you can run depends entirely on your own fate.

"Go to sleep. This isn't something we can solve by worrying about it. It's their life, they can live it however they want."

Nie Qian has also experienced many ups and downs, and is not sentimental.

However, mothers always have an endless heart that worries about their children.

The next morning, Nie Qian had originally arranged for Ji Ying to take the rest of them out to play.

But around 8 o'clock, Ji Ying called and said that his boss wanted him to return to the office immediately.

They still won't listen to any explanations.

In matters of official business, Nie Qian couldn't say anything.

Even knowing that this was a continuation of yesterday's events, it was difficult to stop it.

He simply told Ji Ying to be careful in everything she did and not to directly contradict her superiors.

Since Ji Ying couldn't go, Nie Qian sent a guard to take them out for a walk.

That can be considered fulfilling the duties of a host.

Li Tian and his group didn't go to a fancy hotel, but instead chose the City God Temple.

It has a more down-to-earth, local feel there.

Sure enough, as soon as we got close to that area, we saw a large crowd and heard all sorts of noise.

All sorts of stalls, offering everything from food and drinks to toys.

Only by walking in here can you truly experience the atmosphere of shopping.

Li Tian saw a snack she had never tried before and bought a serving.

Since there are so many of them, each person can just take a bite and that should be enough. There's no need to worry about not being able to finish the next one.

Li Tian wasn't a fan of the specialty chicken and duck blood soup, but she really enjoyed pan-fried dumplings.

After finishing one serving, I still felt unsatisfied, so I went and bought another one.

Just as she was enjoying her meal, Li Tian suddenly spotted three familiar figures.

To be precise, it was a familiar figure.

The other two small figures were no longer familiar.
