Chapter 404 - "You are just jealous" (3)
Commander Xiao shared a watered down version of what happened back in the days.
“…… and that was what happened. I only found out that you are my grandchildren today.”
He took the train from Beihe to Capital City and headed straight toward the garment factory that Tong Daijin used to work at, only to be told that Tong Xuelu had swapped to a different job. He then rushed over to the restaurant immediately but was told that she had taken the day off and was home.
He then hurried over to her place and found out that Wei Guozhi, his old comrade in arm, lived right next door to the Tong family.
Wei Guozhi and his wife Shen Wanrong were both very surprised when they saw him. When they learned that he was there looking for his grandchildren, they immediately told him that Tong Xuelu looked a lot like his mother Old Mrs. Xiao.
Nothing more need to be said after he saw Tong Jiaming and Tong Mianmian.
Both of them looked like both Tong Menzhi and the Xiao’s. He couldn’t do much with the two children, so he hurried over to the military compound after learning about Tong Xuelu’s whereabout.
Tong Xuelu felt that it was all very cliché and also lamented after she heard the entire story.
She had figured that there was more to Tong Daijin’s true identity but she didn’t think that the story was this sad.
Tong Menzhi, her real grandmother, was unreconciled to the day she died. The thought of that made her feel sorrowful.
Old Mr. Wen and Uncle Zong were also stunned by how convoluted the story was.
It took them quite a while to find their voice. “Is that all true, Old Stuckup?”
Commander Xiao, “Of course that is all true. Why would I make up something like that?”
Old Mr. Wen stared at him. “Old Stuckup had been going around recognizing granddaughters. Who knew which one is true and which one is fake. Don’t you also have a God granddaughter?”
Commander Xiao said, “That’s a god one. Besides, that is no longer the case after today!”
Back in the days, he was too overworked and collapsed from a heart attack. Sun Manrou, just 4 years old then, was playing nearby and started to cry when she witnessed that. Her crying caught the attention of a soldier nearby.
True was, even if she didn’t cry, the soldier would have passed by him regardless. Perhaps in another minute’s time.
Nevertheless, the Sun family spread the word that they had saved his life and he couldn’t deny that. He then learned that Sun Manrou also have the character “Man” in her name, same as Tong Menzhi.
He felt that it was all meant to be and agreed to take her as his God granddaughter.
As she was just his god granddaughter and not his real one and that he worked long hours all the time, the two never spent a lot of time with each other. As Sun Manrou grew older, it was not appropriate for him to spend alone time with her.
As such, the whole thing about them being close was just the words of the Sun family.
Had he knew what kind of a person Sun Manrou truly was, he would never have agreed to take her as his god granddaughter.
Old Mr. Wen did not bother fighting with Commander Xiao. He turned toward Tong Xuelu. “Xuelu, do you want to recognize Old Stuckup as your grandfather? It’s alright if you don’t. Grandpa Wen will back you!”
Commander Xiao almost die from anger when he heard that. “Stop instigating, you Old Stubborn. I know why are you doing this. You are just envious of me is all!”
Old Mr. Wen harrumphed loudly.
Why did he need to be envious of him? Xuelu would be his granddaughter-in-law sooner or later!
Tong Xuelu thought about it some. “I need to talk to Jiaming and the others before I get back to you.”
Given Commander Xiao’s status and identity, he had no reason to lie.
Commander Xiao felt nervous and aggrieved when he heard that but he dared not say anything.
“Alright, alright. You guys talk it through. I will be staying at the Wei’s for the time being. You can always come and talk to me!”
Old Mr. Wen called him shameless secretly when he learned that Commander Xiao would be staying over at the Wei’s.
