As the first rays of dawn pierced the sky.

The hustle and bustle in the small mountain village has continued since last night, and just when everyone was feeling a bit tired, a huge engine sound came from the sky above.

A hurricane was blowing all around, making it hard for people to open their eyes.

Everyone looked up curiously and saw an armed helicopter circling overhead, which shocked them greatly.

Even if ordinary people don't understand military affairs, they've all seen military parades, so they can naturally understand what these airplanes are like!
But why would an armed helicopter suddenly appear here?

This was not only a question for the villagers and workers, but also for Zheng Yi, who was temporarily in charge of the project, and Zhu Jingheng, who was already on the road supervising the construction of the highway.

Just as everyone was very curious, the plane finally found a suitable open space and began to land.

However, the plane hovered when it was still half a meter off the ground, which was enough to show the pilot's skill level.

The hatch opens.

Xu Yun was the first to jump down from above, followed by Lin Wanzhou and Lin Zhengyu.

After the three landed safely, Lin Zhengyu turned around and made a hand gesture. Then, the helicopter, having completed its mission, took off from the spot and flew away into the distance, disappearing from sight.

When Zheng Yi saw that it was Xu Yun who got off the plane, he looked on in disbelief.

They only knew that Xu Yun was probably very rich, but they never expected that he would be able to come back on a military plane!
What kind of network of connections would you need?

That's incredible!

The village party secretary and village head who came to help were already shocked after witnessing the road repairs last night. They had no idea that the descendants of the Chen family were doing so well outside.

Even township secretaries, who rarely get to see them, saw a high-ranking official like the deputy director of the county party committee personally come to handle their funeral arrangements yesterday.

The surrounding roads were temporarily closed off by traffic police, who then directed traffic.

Now it's even more impressive; I saw another young man returning on a military plane.

The two of them thought to themselves from a short distance away, "If it weren't for the passing of the old man from the Chen family, this would probably be a very important person that we would never have met in our lives!"
"Xu Yun".

After realizing what was happening, Zheng Yi immediately stepped forward and said meaningfully, "I didn't expect you to come back so quickly."

"Thanks a lot."

Xu Yun asked with a smile, "Where are my mom and Chen Xin?"

"Rest in a room inside the mourning hall."

Zheng Yi said, "I'll take you there right away."

"it is good."

Xu Yun turned to Lin Zhengyu and Lin Wanzhou and said, "You two can wander around for now, I'll come find you later."

Then, he followed Zheng Yi and quickly walked into the house.

Lin Zhengyu had always assumed that Xu Yun's elder had passed away, most likely because it was a very important person.

But when he arrived here and saw the surrounding environment—mud walls and tiled houses—he realized he had been wrong.

He asked in confusion, "I've never asked, but who is this deceased relative of Xu Yun?"

"Actually, it has little to do with President Xu."

Lin Wanzhou explained, "You can think of it as the grandmother of one of Mr. Xu's confidantes, an ordinary old woman."

“(⊙o⊙)…” Lin Zhengyu.

He actually went to such lengths for the sake of an elder of a woman in his life?
To be honest, he didn't quite understand.

He knew that Xu Yun had many women.

I don't know whether to call him a womanizer or a devoted lover!

If it were Zhong Yanyan's elder who had passed away, Xu Yun would understand why he did this.

After all, in his view, no matter how many women Xu Yun had, the position of the main wife would definitely belong to Zhong Yanyan in the future, and it could only be her; she could not be a concubine.

"No matter what, since I'm already here, I should at least offer incense to the old man."

Lin Zhengyu asked, "Are you going? Together?"

"Okay." Lin Wanzhou.

Inside the inner room of the mourning hall.

Zheng Yi didn't go in; he saw him to the door and then went to attend to other matters.

Xu Yun went in alone and saw his mother, Zhang Sujuan. He was about to speak when she stopped him and pointed to Chen Xin, who was lying on the bed.

"She just fell asleep, don't wake her up."

Xu Yun looked at Chen Xin, whose belly was already slightly protruding, and asked softly, "Didn't you sleep at all last night?"

I didn't sleep well.

Zhang Sujuan said, "Weren't you abroad? How come you came back so quickly? I just heard a plane, was that yours?"

"Ah."

Xu Yun replied, "Because we were in a hurry to come back, we flew back by helicopter. Is Chen Xin alright?"

"fine."

Zhang Sujuan paused for a moment, then said, "There's one thing I can't make up my mind about."

"what's up?"

"Because Chen Xin is currently pregnant, according to traditional customs, she cannot go to the funeral hall, as it is considered unlucky."

Zhang Sujuan explained, "Since the old man passed away, he has been placed in a coffin, but Chen Xin has not even seen him once."

That's not the main problem. The main issue is that the old man only has Chen Xin as his descendant now. If she can't step forward, what will happen to many things later?
Whether it's keeping vigil or finally carrying the spirit tablet up the mountain, it all requires the descendants.

"Let me do it."

Xu Yun said, "Chen Xin is pregnant with my child, so I can be considered her son-in-law. I'm here to fulfill my filial duty on her behalf."

"Yeah, that's what I mean too."

Zhang Sujuan looked at Xu Yun, quite satisfied with his answer, and said, "He truly deserves to be my son; he's responsible."

If you do this, what will happen to the other women around you...?

"will not."

Xu Yun said, "If that's the case, there's nothing we can do. You either have to put up with it or leave on your own."

“Sigh…” Zhang Sujuan looked at Chen Xin and sighed.

There are too many future daughters-in-law, it's a headache.

Because she could never treat everyone equally and there were always biases, there was no way around it; her favoritism towards Chen Xin was definitely greater than towards the other women.

"Mom, you should go to sleep too."

Xu Yun said, "I can keep an eye on Chen Xin here."

"Okay then, I'll go to sleep."

Zhang Sujuan said, "Oh right, and there's your classmate Zheng Yi. He's been busy until now without taking a break. We really appreciate his help this time."

"I see."

Outside the house.

Zhu Jingheng went to the courtyard outside the mourning hall and found Zheng Yi, who had just come out. He asked in confusion, "What happened to that plane just now?"

"Xu Yun is back."

"what?!"

After listening for a while, Zhu Jingheng exclaimed in shock, "He actually came back in a military helicopter?"

"Ah."

Zheng Yi sighed and said, "So Xu Yun has been doing much better than we imagined all these years."

"(⊙o⊙)..."

Zhu Jingheng recalled their first meeting after graduating from high school. He had wanted to put on an act in front of him, but now he realized how ridiculous he had been.

"By the way, the road has been repaired, and the last meter of asphalt has been laid."

Zhu Jingheng came to his senses and said wearily, "I have already had the construction team gradually withdraw and cleared the road. People and vehicles can now pass."

"Okay, I'll call Captain Liu of the traffic police department right away and let him know."

Zheng Yi patted him on the shoulder and said, "You've also been up all night, go and get some rest."

"It's alright," Zhu Jingheng said with a smile. "I can manage one or two all-nighters."

Previously, the old squad leader and Xu Yun had a falling out because of Lin Xi.

However, Xu Yun did not hold it against him at all, and even helped him make a comeback when he was in the most difficult time, giving him a chance.

Therefore, he was grateful to Xu Yun. Now that he could do his part to help, he would naturally do his best.

With the construction of a brand-new highway, traffic in the surrounding area improved, and people began to move in one after another.

Besides some relatives, some were villagers from the surrounding area who lived at home.

We're all from the same village, so everyone will definitely come to help when something like this happens. After all, everyone has to go through something like this someday.

If you help someone today, they will only help you when they need help in their own family someday.

People are interconnected.

The villagers, however, watched the various people coming and going, and felt as if they couldn't do anything to help.

They went to inquire with the village party secretary and the village director.

"Secretary, does the Chen family still need our help?"

"It doesn't seem necessary."

The village secretary was also in an awkward position. In the past, whenever there was something going on in the village, he would be the one to take charge and coordinate everyone to get things done.

It's not his turn at all.

Because the person who has now replaced him is a leader from the county, someone even the town's Party Secretary has to greet with a smile.

"Party Secretary".

The director asked doubtfully, "Do you mean that the Chen family has some powerful descendants we don't know about?"

Because everything that has happened from yesterday until now is not normal.

"It shouldn't be."

The village secretary and some older villagers said, "Old Chen's family consists of only the old lady and her granddaughter."

"Could it be that her granddaughter married a powerful person outside?"

"Could it be the young man who just got off in the armed helicopter?"

"Sigh~"

The village party secretary swallowed hard and said, "It seems the Chen family is really going to rise to prominence in the future."

Just as the group was chatting, Zheng Yi walked over and said with a smile, "Secretary, Director."

"Good leadership."

The two immediately greeted them with smiles and asked, "How can we help you?"

"Now some villagers have come over, and I don't know them. Could you please help me receive them?"

Zheng Yi said, "I've already had some temporary sheds set up over there. You can go over and sit down for a bit. Breakfast has also been prepared, and we should be able to eat it soon."

"Okay, Director Zheng." The two responded in unison. After being here for so long, they finally had something to discuss.

It would be a good thing to be able to help the Chen family now, or to get on Director Zheng's good side and become a familiar face to him.

If I ever need anything again in the future, I can ask them for help, and they might be able to lend a hand.

……

On the other side, Fu Baoying, Xinuo, and Yu Xuan also drove to the county town overnight around 8 a.m.

Fu Baoying and Xinuo went to the village first, following the location.

Yu Xuan, on the other hand, went a little later, following Xu Yun's instructions, to the best hotel, find the owner, and book all the chefs.

Then they found a bus and headed to the village.

When the other women staying at the hotel woke up, they all received messages from Zhang Sujuan.

Xu Yunren has arrived, and it seems the village roads are open now, so we can come.

To everyone's surprise, Xu Yun arrived before them.

Keep in mind that he was on a sea voyage abroad when he received the news.

In just one day and one night, people appeared in the village.

This isn't something that can be done simply by having money.

After washing up, Su Mu and the others didn't even have time for breakfast before driving straight to the village.

Almost everyone brought a car this time.

An hour later.

When Fu Baoying and Xinuo appeared at the village entrance dressed in plain black, everyone looked over at the same time.

Beautiful, pretty, and elegant.

One is domineering, the other is sweet, creating an extreme contrast.

Seeing this, the village chief and the party secretary looked at the other party's car and then at the person, wondering who this important figure was, and dared not go forward to greet them.

Fortunately, Zhang Sujuan, who had been sleeping for a while, came out, saw it, and walked up to it with a smile.

"Hello, Auntie." Fu Baoying greeted her politely with a smile.

Xinuo was even more direct, immediately stepping forward and hugging his arm affectionately.

I didn't know; I thought it was her daughter.

Zhang Sujuan smiled and said, "You must be tired from traveling. Let's find a place to sit down and rest."

"No need, Auntie."

Fu Baoying asked, "Is there anything I can help with here?"

"Yes, yes, I can help too."

“Then, Baoying.”

Zhang Sujuan didn't mince words, saying, "You're the big boss, and you're capable. Why don't you take over from Zheng Yi and coordinate things on site? He's been busy for a whole day and night; he needs a rest."

“Okay, no problem.” Fu Baoying glanced at Zheng Yi, who was standing not far away, and walked straight over.

"Teacher Zheng, you've worked hard."

Fu Baoying said with a smile, "I am Xu Yun's friend. I will take over everything here for the time being. You should go and rest."

Zheng Yi looked at the woman with a strong presence in front of him and then looked at Zhang Sujuan with a puzzled expression.

Zhang Sujuan said, "Zheng Yi, you should go and get some rest. Leave the rest to her."

“Okay, Auntie.” Zheng Yi nodded to Fu Baoying, then began to hand over his work and the things he needed to do next.

Then, he randomly found a place to rest for a while.

I haven't stayed up late in a long time, and I'm really tired.

Xinuo said from the side, "Auntie, you should find me something to do, otherwise I'll seem useless."

"Then go and greet the villagers over there."

Zhang Sujuan said, "Can you take care of refilling their sunflower seeds, peanuts, and drinks anytime?"

"No problem, I promise to complete the mission!"

After receiving her task, Xinuo went off immediately, showing great enthusiasm.

Yu Xuan arrived with the chef and various ingredients. After greeting the aunt with a smile, she went to get busy.

As her personal housekeeper, she was already quite familiar with these matters, so she didn't need Zhang Sujuan to say anything; she knew exactly what she should do.

Zhang Sujuan watched this scene, smiled, and shook her head.

All of my son's female friends are incredibly sensible and capable.

Just as she was sighing.

One luxury car after another appeared at the village entrance, and the villagers were once again stunned when they drove in.

They had never seen so many beautiful cars in their entire lives.

Especially the women who got off the car, they were all dressed in simple blue clothes and had beautiful faces. They were all stunning, with different styles and temperaments.

I didn't know; I thought I was at a beauty pageant.

This scene was quite impactful for ordinary people like them.

Normally, it's good to see one or two good-looking ones occasionally, but today, there's been wave after wave of them.

After everyone got off the bus, upon seeing Zhang Sujuan, they came up to her one after another and greeted her politely.

"Hello Auntie."

Zhang Sujuan looked at the crowd in front of her, including two people she didn't recognize, who seemed to be newcomers.

She smiled and said, "Hello, please come inside and rest with me. Xu Yun is sleeping right now, but he'll probably be out soon."
