Chapter 1292 Don't Play Matchmaker

Hao's mother looked unconcerned: "Gou'er is just a baby, what's wrong with him taking a sip of milk?"

Company Commander Hao shuddered as he recalled the regimental commander's dark face: "You can't stand to see your son doing well, can you?"

Hearing her son's words, Hao's mother said, "What nonsense are you talking about? You're just giving the dog an excuse to drink milk. How can I not want to see you doing well?"

Company Commander Hao said angrily, "Do you think this is a village where those aunties don't discriminate between meat and vegetables? The regimental commander's wife is still a young woman, very sensitive. This is a large military compound, not a village. Stop thinking about such things in the future."

Hao's mother scoffed, "City women are just so pretentious."

Company Commander Hao looked around in fright and said, "Mom, if you keep talking like this, you should just go back to your hometown."

"Hao Qingfeng, what do you mean? I just arrived, and you're already complaining?"

"You've only just arrived and you've already caused me trouble. Of course, I can't let you stay here and cause me any more trouble."

"You brat, how did your mother harm you? Explain yourself!"

Company Commander Hao took the child from his mother's arms and pulled her back quickly, saying, "Mom, I'm begging you, let's talk about it when we get back."

Seeing that her son's expression was genuine, Hao's mother looked at him suspiciously and said, "You've had a long and tiring journey. Who did I come here for? I've only just arrived, and I already have to put up with your attitude. What kind of trouble have I gotten myself into?"

Despite her displeasure, she didn't say anything to upset her son, and instead quickened her pace along with him.

As soon as they entered the courtyard, a woman came out to greet them: "Aunt, Brother Qingfeng, why did you come back together?" Seeing her son in Hao Qingfeng's arms, Hongqu's face was full of smiles: "Cousin, quickly give this rascal to me, he's very heavy."

Hao's mother rolled her eyes at her son: "Speak up, what's the point of pulling me back in such a hurry? Didn't you see the dog is starving?"

Company Commander Hao looked at Qu Hong, his distant cousin: "There's millet and eggs in the kitchen. Go and cook some porridge for the child, or steam some egg custard."

After saying that, he pulled his mother into the house: "Mom, what exactly do you want to do?"

Hao's mother shook off her son's hand: "Why do you think I came? Ever since that woman Yu Liqin got into trouble, you've lost your promotion opportunities because of her. If I hadn't come, were you planning to stay single for the rest of your life?"

When Company Commander Hao heard his mother mention Yu Liqin, he felt a sudden pang of sadness. After all, his family had never agreed to his marriage to her, but he had insisted on it. Because of that incident, his family's relationship with Yu Liqin had never been good: "Mom, that's all in the past. Don't bring it up again."

“I’m not going to beat around the bush with you. If you had listened to me back then, Qu Hong wouldn’t have had to marry that sickly man. She didn’t even get to enjoy a single good day before he passed away. Now that you’re also getting married for the second time, I’m thinking of bringing you two together. That way, you’ll have someone to take care of you, she’ll have someone to rely on, and Gou’er won’t be laughed at for being a child without a father anymore.”

"Mom, I have no feelings for Qu Hong, don't try to play matchmaker for me."

"Hao Qingfeng, you're almost thirty years old, not a young man anymore. Are you really planning to stay single forever?"

"Anyway, there's no way I can be with Qu Hong, so don't make things difficult for me. You guys stay here for a few days and wander around, then you should take them and their child back home as soon as possible, so as not to ruin their reputation and cause trouble later."

"Hao Qingfeng, don't be ungrateful. Qu Hong is such a good girl. If it weren't for waiting for you, she wouldn't have become an old maid and then hastily married such a sickly man."

“You’re no mother. You have to blame your own son. I said from the beginning that I don’t like her. She’s the one who wants to wait for him. How can you blame me?”
