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

"Hmm, what's wrong?" Xiao Yuchen looked at him curiously.

"It's nothing, I just wanted to know who's more capable, you or my dad."

Xiao Yuchen laughed and asked him in return, "Then who do you think is more capable, me or your dad?"

"My dad is awesome," Xiao Chen said without hesitation.

"Hey, you little rascal, you know how to side with your dad."

"In my heart, my dad is the best." Xiao Chen tilted his little neck back, his face full of pride.

Qin Xiang'an, who was in front, couldn't help but feel happy when she heard this. He truly deserved to be her son.

The group got into the car, put their things in the back, and Xiao Yuchen sat in the passenger seat, then drove them back to the family compound.

Upon arriving at the entrance of the residential compound, we registered before driving in.

Xiao Yuchen drove to the entrance of the family compound they had applied for.

This place isn't far from the Xiao family's residence.

It's just a few minutes' walk away.

Xie Yun was already waiting at their door. When she saw the car arrive, a smile immediately appeared on her face.

Shen Jingyue and the others saw Xie Yun in the car.

After getting out of the car, Qin Xiang'an smiled and called out, "Mom."

"Oh, I've been waiting for you to come back!" Xie Yun was thrilled to hear her call her "Mom."

Shen Jingyue also got out of the car with her child.

She walked over, smiling, and called out, "Mom."

"Xiao Chen, this is Grandma, quickly call her Grandma."

"Hello, Grandma," Xiao Chen greeted obediently.

"Okay, okay, everything's fine. Come in, the place has already been cleaned for you."

"We've also bought you some things, including some toys that kids like to play with for Xiaochen. Come in and see if you like them."

Xie Yun led them inside.

Qin Xiang'an and Xiao Yuchen then unloaded the items from the car.

"Xiao Chen has grown so much. When I visited him two years ago, he was still such a tiny little boy."

Upon entering the house, Shen Jingyue was astonished by everything she saw. The house was fully furnished, and she could move in immediately with just her bags.

"Mom, did you buy all these things?"

"Yes, do you like it?"

She personally selected all of these items.

"Mom, you've gone to too much trouble."

These pieces of furniture don't look cheap, and some even require a receipt.

When they moved, they naturally didn't move the tables and chairs, since they were too difficult to move.

I was thinking of buying it again once I got here.

I didn't expect that Mom and the others had bought everything.

"What's the big deal? We didn't prepare anything when you got married, so this is perfect, we're making up for it now."

"Put your things down later, and come to my house for dinner tonight. The old man is very happy to hear that Xiang An has been transferred back to Haishi."

"And the child, the old man hasn't met Xiao Chen yet."

Qin Xiang'an and the others brought their things in, and Xie Yun told them to pack up first, and she would come back later to take them home for dinner.

After Xie Yun and Xiao Yuchen left, Qin Xiang'an and Shen Jingyue tidied up their things.

Then he asked Qin Xiang'an, "Have the things we sent arrived?"

Most of the items were mailed over; they only brought a small portion with them, though they also stored a considerable amount of stuff in their space.

"They should have arrived by now. I'll go check later. Even if they don't arrive today, they'll definitely arrive tomorrow."

"Um."

After they finished packing, they went straight to the Xiao family's house.

Grandpa Xiao had been looking forward to them for a long time, and he was sitting in the courtyard waiting for them.

Inside, Xie Yun and Xiao Yushu were in the kitchen, preparing the dishes for tonight's meal with Zhang Ma.

Xie Yushu divorced and returned two years ago.

She simply couldn't stay in that house any longer; she had been blinded by Lin Derong's deception.

Her mother and sister even started eyeing her job.

Instead of speaking up for her, Lin Derong asked her to give the job to his sister.

He even forced himself to agree to divorce his sister if he didn't give her the job.

Xiao Yushu was not raised to be frightened.

She had wanted a divorce for a long time, but she didn't say it because she always remembered how good he had been to her before.

But after marriage, that one good thing gradually disappeared.

He wanted a divorce, and Xiao Yushu simply granted his wish.

After the divorce, she moved back home.

Fortunately, her parents didn't say anything, so she continued to live at home.

"Zhang Ma, you go and start braising the pork, I'll wash these vegetables."

"Okay, I'll go right now."

Aunt Zhang quickly blanched and rinsed the braised pork she had just cut, then added oil to caramelize the sugar before stir-frying the blanched pork.

Once it's almost cooked, add hot water, spices, and soy sauce, then cover and simmer.

It was at this moment that Qin Xiang'an and Shen Jingyue arrived with the child.

The old man sat in the courtyard.

The courtyard gate was not closed.

Upon seeing Qin Xiang'an and the others, he stood up excitedly.

"Xiang An is here."

"Grandpa," Qin Xiang'an called out.

"Okay, okay, okay."

"Daughter-in-law, this is Grandpa."

"Hello, Grandpa." This was also the first time Shen Jingyue had met the Xiao family patriarch.

"Okay, okay."

"Xiao Chen, quickly call him Great-Grandpa." Shen Jingyue quickly pulled the child to the front.

Hello, Great-Grandpa.

"Hey, is this Xiao Chen? He's grown so much."

The old man had thought about visiting him before, but the journey was too long and his health prevented him from going that far.

Now I've finally seen it with my own eyes.

Hearing the commotion, Xie Yun inside quickly came out as well.

"Xiang An and Xiao Yue are here, come in quickly."

Hello, Grandma.

"Oh, Grandma's dear grandson, let's go inside."

Shen Jingyue greeted her second sister and then went inside with them.

Xie Yun gave Xiao Chen a lot of delicious food and fun toys, and told him to sit down and eat.

"You're finally back in Beijing! Your parents and grandpa have been waiting for you."

Xie Yushu really likes her fourth sister-in-law.

He pulled her to sit down and started talking.

"That's great! I'll definitely bring my child here more often when I have time."

"That would be perfect. Mom has plenty of time. Grandpa and Mom are both happy that you and Xiaochen are coming," Xie Yushu said with a smile.

"Yes, yes, yes, you can come over often in the future, I have plenty of time," the old man said hurriedly.

The eldest son's children don't live here; they only come back once a year, around the Lunar New Year.

Sometimes he's so busy he might not even come back for the New Year. The third son is still unmarried. We've been trying to find him a partner and arrange blind dates, but he just won't go.

However, I recently heard that a female comrade often goes to the military base to see her, and I wonder if the two of them can get together.

Over here, Xiao Yuchen left the military base, intending to go home.

I just rode my bicycle out of the military base.

Suddenly a woman ran out from the side.

Startled, Xiao Yuchen quickly stopped the car. After seeing who it was, he said irritably, "Xie Yue, what do you think you're doing? Do you know how dangerous this is?"

"Hmph, who told you to ignore me? I'm asking you, why won't you see me?"

She had been coming to see him frequently these past few days, but he had consistently refused to meet her.

Hmph, she's never failed to get the person she sets her sights on.
