The wife took the baby to live with the military commander, and the commander washed diapers every d

Mr. Shen was stunned when he saw Qin Xiang'an and the child in his arms.

"Xiang An, this is my dad," Shen Jingyue introduced him.

"Dad, this is my husband, Qin Xiang'an, and this is my son," Shen Jingyue said to her father.

"Dad," Qin Xiang'an called out with a smile.

Mr. Shen was surprised that what his daughter said was true, but Qin Xiang'an looked good, tall and strong, and seemed to have a sense of responsibility.

Feeling rather satisfied, I said, "Okay, let's sit down first."

"Ahhh..." Little Xiao Beichen started making a fuss as soon as he sat down.

Qin Xiang'an directly fed him the freshly prepared milk powder.

Once Xiao Beichen got his milk, he held the little bottle and gulped it down, sitting obediently in his father's lap without making a fuss.

At this moment, Mr. Shen also turned his attention to his grandson.

"This is my grandson! How old is he?"

Shen Jingyue nodded, "Yes, it's been almost four months."

"Okay, now that we're married, let's live a good life together from now on."

At first, Shen's father thought that if the man she married was not good, he would let them divorce.

It seems this son-in-law is quite good now.

At least it looks reliable.

Moreover, he was the one holding the child; judging from the way he held the child, he must have held the child quite often.

Yu Hongjuan then started serving the dishes.

Once all the dishes were served, Mr. Shen invited them to sit down and eat.

"This is Xiang An's first time visiting our home today. The dishes are all simple home-cooked meals, so please don't mind."

After Yu Hongjuan brought the food up, she sat down next to Shen's father and smiled at Qin Xiang'an.

"No, this meal has both vegetables and meat; it's already very good."

"Alright, everyone, let's eat and chat." Mr. Shen started to pick up his chopsticks.

Cheng Xiaoxia saw that Qin Xiang'an was still holding a child in his arms. The child was fair and chubby, and was really well-raised. It was hard to believe that such a child could be raised in the countryside.

But then I remembered hearing that the child was a boy, and I realized it wasn't a big deal.

In many rural areas, there is a strong preference for sons over daughters. This child is a boy, so of course he is being raised with great care. Look, he's even drinking formula.

That milk powder must be expensive.

"Brother-in-law, I see you've been holding the baby the whole time. Why don't you let my sister hold the baby for a bit? It must be tiring for you to hold the baby like that."

Cheng Xiaoxia then said to Shen Jingyue, "Big sister, you're so inconsiderate of your brother-in-law. How can a child be held by his brother-in-law all the time?"

All eyes turned to Shen Jingyue.

She thought that by saying that, she could sow discord between them.

Unexpectedly, Qin Xiang'an spoke up before Shen Jingyue could even speak.

"No need. The child is fussy. If your sister holds him, she won't be able to eat properly. I can hold him."

As Qin Xiang'an spoke, he added a piece of lean braised pork to his wife's plate.

"Wife, eat some meat."

"Um."

Shen Jingyue put the piece of meat in her mouth before slowly speaking, "Xiaoxia, did you hear that? Your brother-in-law doesn't want me to get tired."

Cheng Xiaoxia's face turned very pale.

She never expected this man to be so spineless. She had spoken up for him, but he didn't appreciate it at all.

Yu Hongjuan tugged at Cheng Xiaoxia under the table and gave her a look, signaling her to say less.

"Second sister, brother-in-law is just worried about eldest sister." Shen Ping felt that he could see it himself, so why did his second sister say such a thing?

Mr. Shen glanced at Cheng Xiaoxia, his expression not looking too good.

Cheng Xiaoxia realized she had said the wrong thing and lowered her head without saying anything more.

"Xiang An, don't just focus on Xiao Yue, eat more too." Yu Hongjuan smiled and used serving chopsticks to put a piece of meat on his plate as well.

"Thank you, Aunt Yu." Qin Xiang'an was also eating.

Mr. Shen said, "Xiang An, your family is from the countryside, so there must be a lot of people in your family."

"It's alright," Qin Xiang'an said.

Yu Hongjuan chimed in, "I see you're feeding your child formula. That's not cheap. Is your son-in-law a government official in the countryside?"

She was just guessing, since there are quite a few cadres in the countryside.

Moreover, Qin Xiang'an's overall demeanor was nothing like that of someone who had always toiled in the fields for a living.

If you were a farmer, you wouldn't be willing to buy such expensive milk powder for your child.

"No, I'm not in the countryside anymore, I'm serving in the army in the Northwest." Qin Xiang'an had also asked his wife whether they should keep his job a secret.

But my wife said it wasn't necessary, so this matter can be discussed openly, at least to make them more wary.

"What? A soldier?" Shen's father and the others looked at him in shock.

Even Yu Hongjuan and Cheng Xiaoxia were startled by these words.

To serve in the military.

The man Shen Jingyue found turned out to be a soldier.

Shen Ping was also shocked. He was shocked that his brother-in-law was a soldier. Was that very impressive?

"Yes, Xiaoyue is now with me at the military base, so we still have enough money for baby formula."

"Brother-in-law, aren't you amazing?" Shen Ping looked at her brother-in-law with sparkling eyes, her expression full of anticipation.

"Not bad, there are plenty of people better than me."

Father Shen burst into laughter, "Good, no wonder I felt you had an extraordinary air about you at first glance. I never imagined you were a soldier."

"Then your military rank must be quite high. As far as I know, only battalion-level officers can accompany their units. You look so young, I didn't expect you to reach the battalion level. Not bad, not bad."

Mr. Shen thought his daughter had really married a country bumpkin, but he never expected that the man was actually a soldier.

His daughter is truly blessed.

"Xiaoyue, why didn't you say so sooner?" Mr. Shen's tone was reproachful.

Such a son-in-law is hard to find; it would be a source of pride for you to talk about him later.

Yu Hongjuan didn't understand anything about battalion level or anything like that, but she thought that Shen Jingyue, her boyfriend who was in the army, was quite impressive.

She had originally wanted to find an opportunity to make sarcastic remarks about Shen Jingyue's boyfriend, but she didn't expect that he was actually a soldier.

That brat, she must have done it on purpose by not saying anything at first.

"Dad, you didn't even ask me what he does for a living," Shen Jingyue said helplessly.

How could she not know what her father was thinking? Soldiers are highly respected these days, and having a son-in-law who is in the military and holds a military rank is a source of great pride.

Mr. Shen glared at her; he always felt that his daughter was doing it on purpose.

I used to think about getting them divorced, but now I don't have that thought at all.

Cheng Xiaoxia was incredibly jealous. Why did Shen Jingyue get all the good things?

I thought she married a country bumpkin, but now I realize she married a rich and powerful man.

He was a soldier, and he could live a good life with the army, and he even got a salary every month. Cheng Xiaoxia was so jealous that she was going crazy.
