Rebirth of the Forbidden City: The Troublemaker in the Courtyard

Ning Yuan and Ning Wei looked at each other and didn't want to disturb their father.

The two brothers simply left the office and carefully closed the door for him.

"Brother, don't you have something to ask Dad? Don't you want to talk anymore?"

Ning Wei looked at the elder brother who pulled him out and asked with some confusion.

Ning Yuan slapped Ning Wei on the back of the head, neither too hard nor too light, and then said.

"You kid, how can you not be sympathetic? Didn't you see that our dad is sleeping soundly? I guess he just fell asleep not long ago. Why wake him up? It's not a matter of life and death!"

Ning Wei rubbed his head and said to his brother dissatisfiedly.

"Brother, just say what you want to say. Why did you slap me? Just wait, I'll go back and complain to my sister-in-law!"

Ning Yuan heard that the boy was quite unconvinced. He glared at him, and then saw that his father's secretary was coming over. He let his brother go and turned to look at the secretary.

"Brother Lu!"

The young secretary's surname is Lu. He is from the same department as Ning Wanli. He is very capable and competent.

He is more than ten years older than Ning Yuan, so Ning Yuan calls him "Brother Lu" as soon as he opens his mouth!

Lu Cheng was a little surprised when he saw Ning Yuan and Ning Wei waiting at the office door. He nodded repeatedly and asked.

"What's going on, Dayuan? Is the commander still not awake?"

Ning Yuan nodded and continued.

"Just now I knocked on the door and no one answered, so I pushed it open and took a look. My dad was sleeping soundly. I guess he was too busy these past two days and just fell asleep not long ago. I'd better not disturb him!"

After looking at the office door, Lu Cheng couldn't help but said with a smile.

"Well, the commander's sleep quality is indeed very good. He went to bed at around 11 o'clock last night and hasn't woken up yet!"

When Ning Yuan heard this, he turned his head and looked at Ning Wei.

Both brothers were a little embarrassed!

Well, I originally thought that Dad was just too tired and fell asleep.

As it turned out, this old man simply had such good sleep quality!

In fact, this is also because they don’t understand the old revolutionaries who lived through that era. At that time, there was no environment for sleeping peacefully.

As soon as the sound of gunfire is heard, you have to stand up and take command immediately.

It is really tiring, so these old generals and veteran commanders can really sleep as long as they can!

Sleep replenishes your energy!

Lu Cheng couldn't help laughing when he saw the two brothers.

Speak directly to them.

"Well, you two wait for me for a moment. I'll go in and call the commander. He should be awake by now!"

Ning Yuan nodded, then watched Lu Cheng walk into the office.

Sure enough, after a few minutes, the snoring stopped.

Then the door was opened, and Lu Cheng spoke to the brothers Ning Yuan and Ning Wei who were at the door.

"The chief is awake. You guys go in. I'll go get some food. Have you eaten yet? Should I get some too?"

Ning Yuan said quickly.

"Brother Lu, we've already eaten at home, just give it to my dad!"

Lu Cheng nodded without being too polite. After saying hello, he walked towards the cafeteria in the backyard.

Ning Yuan asked Ning Wei to wait at the office door, and he went into the office alone.

Ning Wei couldn't wait any longer. Lately, whenever his father saw him, he couldn't stop lecturing.

Mingming brought his buddies with him and helped him a lot.

After closing the office door, Ning Wei began to stroll around the yard.

We waited for about an hour, during which time Secretary Lu only brought in food once.

No one else went in to disturb the father and son.

After Ning Yuan came out, Ning Wei couldn't help but come over and ask.

"Brother, what did you say to Dad? Why did it take so long?"

Ning Yuan shook his head at Ning Wei.

"You want to know? Why don't you go in and ask Dad? He just asked me what I was doing!"

Ning Wei shook his head repeatedly and begged for mercy to Ning Yuan.

"Brother, please forgive me. I won't ask. You didn't sell me out, did you?"

Ning Yuan slapped Ning Wei again in annoyance.

"Why do you miss me, your brother? Am I the kind of person who doesn't care about loyalty?"

Ning Wei chuckled and quickly complimented him.

"No, no, brother, you are the most loyal!"

Before he finished speaking, he heard a voice coming from the office.

"Ning Wei, get in here!"

After hearing this, Ning Yuan pushed his younger brother towards the office door with all his strength.

Ning Wei was caught off guard and was pushed in by his brother.

Before closing the door, Ning Wei turned around with a look full of resentment.

Now it was Ning Yuan's turn to wait for his brother outside the door.

He went in and told his father about the aid from the Viet Cong.

The current situation and changes were also analyzed.

These are all foreseeable. The North and the West are not very friendly to our new country.

And now, the Viet Cong is acting so strongly, although it has not yet shown a truly arrogant attitude.

But there are some clues!

Ning Wanli was skeptical and did not give Ning Yuan a clear attitude.

To be honest, this situation was within Ning Yuan's expectations.

After all, their civil war has not yet ended and unification has not been achieved.

Under the two-power structure, they naturally had to do their best to help the Viet Cong, which also belonged to the socialist camp.

But Ning Yuan knew that whether or not they received domestic aid was actually not that important to them.

After all, there is a powerful industrial country like Big Brother.

To the point that these bastards really eat and drink our food, and then turn around and slap us in the face!

The root cause is that they do not regard this aid as aid and are not grateful for it.

They think that everything you do is their due, and even feel that you give them too little and resent you!

How could Ning Yuan tolerate this kind of stuff? Even if the general policy from above could not be changed, Ning Yuan had to find a way to reduce the various projects.

Outside the office, Ning Yuan was waiting for Ning Wei to be scolded, while thinking about how he could get these aid items back from his own position.

However, before he could think for long, the office door was opened.

Ning Wei came out of the office with a wrinkled face.

After seeing his brother in the corridor, Ning Wei snorted heavily.

Pretending not to see Ning Yuan, he walked straight towards the front yard.

Ning Yuan couldn't help but laugh when he saw his brother like this.

He quickly quickened his pace to catch up, and asked Ning Wei when he got close to him.

"You're out so soon? What did Dad say to you?"

After hearing his brother's question, Ning Wei ignored it and quickened his pace towards the front yard.

Ning Yuan grabbed Ning Wei's arm and said with a smile.

"Look at you, you're still angry with me. It's not me who's scolding you, right? Dad has spoken, and there's nothing I can do, right? Okay, what do you want to eat for lunch? I'll treat you, okay?"

"Just a meal?? Brother, you've already hurt me deeply. Let me tell you, if you don't give me two thousand yuan, this matter will not be resolved!"

When Ning Wei heard that his brother wanted to settle the matter with a meal, he said to him with some resentment.
