Chapter 219 Coercion and inducement

Xu Qinghuan and Jiang Xingye stood side by side, the man was handsome and the woman was beautiful. It was the rush hour after get off work and there were many people on the road, all of whom looked at the two with amazement.

It was the first time that Chen Fusheng met a young person who did not yield to his gaze. Although she was young, her calm and composed demeanor was really rare, and the man next to her was also not simple.

Chen Fusheng thought that the young man from Shen City was indeed not worthy of her, so it was no wonder that she tried every possible way to break off the engagement.

"Comrade Xu, I'm Commander Jiang's guard. Here's my ID. I'm indeed following Commander Jiang's orders to invite you to our home. We can't keep him waiting any longer!"

No matter how ambitious this girl was, Chen Fusheng felt that she had no right to refuse the leader.

Xu Qinghuan was also well aware of this. At least, she could not offend Jiang Zhenguo openly. It happened that the Huo family's driver also arrived at this moment. She said something to the driver and then got into the car driven by Chen Fusheng.

Chen Fusheng knew the Huo family's driver. "Old Wen, don't worry. My leader just wants to see Comrade Xu. I will send him back to the guesthouse safely."

Xu Qinghuan didn't think that Jiang Chengxu was worthy of Jiang Zhenguo's favor. There was only one possibility that he took the time out of his busy schedule to summon her, and that was about the pill formula.

Jiang Zhenguo is Jiang Youliang's father. He is over 60 years old this year, but not old. He has a slicked-back hair and wears a half-new military uniform. He has a kind and lovable smile on his face and a pair of small eyes that are bright and lively.

He met Xu Qinghuan and the other person in his study. After looking at them calmly, he asked them to sit down.

After the aunt at home made tea, he personally handed it to Xu Qinghuan, "I originally thought that I would still be able to hear you call me grandpa in my lifetime, but who knew that this fate would never come."

He looked at Jiang Xingye again, "He's a good young man, at least better than my disappointing grandson."

Xu Qinghuan said lightly, "You're too polite!"

After all, small talk was limited, and Jiang Zhenguo soon got back to business. "Did you heal the Huo family kid's leg this time?"

Xu Qinghuan laughed and said, "It's not true that I cured him. He hasn't even been discharged from the hospital yet. How can he be considered cured?"

Jiang Zhenguo frowned, his dignity rising. "It's said that you said that his legs will recover to their original state in two or three months. This word has spread everywhere. Could it be that I heard it wrongly?"

Of course, we can’t say that the leader heard it wrong.

Xu Qinghuan said, "Old man, whether a person can be cured depends on effective treatment, but the patient's confidence is also very important. If a person is determined to die, even the most capable doctor and the best medicine will find it difficult to keep him alive."

Jiang Zhenguo raised his eyebrows in amusement, "So, what you said may not be true?"

Xu Qinghuan said noncommittally, "A large part of it is to build up the patient's confidence, to let him know that he can get better, can stand up on his own feet, and at least get through the current difficulties."

She paused and said, "It's also to enable patients to better cooperate with treatment."

Jiang Zhenguo took a sip of tea, lowering his eyes in thought. "Comrade Xiao Xu, no one has ever questioned your medical skills. Comrade Zhang Huaishan also made some mistakes back then, which led to him being sent for reform. But unfortunately, he refused to acknowledge his mistakes until his death, which disappointed us all!"

Jiang Zhenguo's tone was filled with regret. Jiang Xingye also heard the threat in his words. A storm gathered in his eyes, and his momentum was faintly suppressed. Xu Qinghuan reached out and gently grasped his fingers, gently stroking the back of his hand with his thumb.

"Old man, Mr. Zhang Huaishan refused to accept me as his disciple until his death. He said that we were not on the same path as him and that his ancestors were loyal to the emperor, while my family's ancestors were poor farmers for eighteen generations. It was only when my father's generation came out of the countryside that they became soldiers or workers."

What she meant was that it was useless to use Zhang Huaishan to scare her. Although she learned all her skills from Zhang Huaishan, Zhang Huaishan did not accept her as his apprentice.

Moreover, her background is different from Zhang Huaishan's. Her father is a soldier and a martyr.

Jiang Zhenguo just felt it was a pity, and cursed Jiang Youliang and his wife, as well as his grandson, whose appearance he couldn't even remember, in his heart. If Jiang Chengxu could marry Xu Qinghuan, he would be willing to allocate some resources to their side.

But, they are so disappointing.

Seeing that his persuasion was ineffective, Jiang Zhenguo bluntly said, "Comrade Xiao Xu, your father is a martyr. We will never forget comrades like him who sacrificed their lives for the motherland and the people. I believe you must be proud of your father too!"

Xu Qinghuan smiled. "Grandpa, I'm proud to be my father's daughter. He was an incredible hero. He loved me when he was alive and he still protected me after his death. The uncles who fought alongside him take care of me like their own daughter. I feel incredibly happy."

"Yes, that's what we should do." Jiang Zhenguo felt no guilt at all. "So, look, this formula you have now will be of great use to the army and the people. Shouldn't you contribute it?"

Xu Qinghuan laughed out loud, a little uncontrollably. "Grandpa, the country is in a difficult situation, and the army is in a difficult situation too. I know all of this, so I think you should advocate for everyone to contribute money, and those who don't have money to contribute labor. Twenty-four hours a day, three hundred and sixty-five days a year, if we all work hard together, we can catch an eagle next year. It's so beautiful."

After she finished speaking, she stood up and looked directly at Jiang Zhenguo. "Old man, I admire the veterans of your generation. I believe you will be able to contribute all your wealth to the country and have your children and relatives follow your example. When that happens, I will also contribute the formula without anyone asking."

The expression on Jiang Zhenguo's face was so ugly that it could not be described. If it were not for his status and position, he would definitely want to kill Xu Qinghuan like a devil.

"Grandpa, I'm sorry. Aunt Shen from the Huo family is waiting for us to come over for dinner. It would be bad if I were to go too late. I'll take my leave first!" After saying that, she said goodbye very politely.

When they came out of Jiang's house, Xu Qinghuan could still hear the sound of glass being smashed inside.

Jiang Xingye was so angry that he turned into a pufferfish.

He could be humiliated, wronged, despised, abandoned by society, and exiled to the mountains and forests, living with wild beasts, but he could not tolerate Xu Qinghuan being bullied or suffering even the slightest bit of humiliation.

But he could do nothing now, and this feeling of powerlessness was driving him crazy.

"Aye, how old are you? How old are they? You will definitely be better than all of them in the future. Don't be angry!" Xu Qinghuan whispered in his ear.

Although she lowered her voice, it was still loud. Chen Fusheng thought to himself, I'm not deaf!
"Yeah!" Jiang Xingye held her hand, his black eyes gazing at her affectionately. One day, he would trample all these people under his feet, and make them crawl at his feet. No one would dare to bully her anymore.

The Huo family had originally agreed that Xu Qinghuan would come over to claim him as their godparent today. Everyone in the family was there except Huo Zhui. Shen Xiuqin personally cooked a table full of dishes, but she was waiting for Xu Qinghuan and the others.
