Tong Jia and Tao Junle continued their shopping life every afternoon for half a month, but there was still no news from the Shanghai Stock Exchange.

Now not only Tong Jia was anxious, but even Tian's mother was getting impatient.

She would ask Lao Qian about the situation almost every day when he came to pick up Tong Jia.

At first, Lao Qian asked them to wait patiently, but later, every time Lao Qian came, he had a worried look on his face.

Half a month passed, and Tong Jia saw in the newspaper the news that the three generals jointly initiated the establishment of the Chahar People's Allied Army to fight against Fuso.

Now, Tong Jia didn’t have time to shop anymore and hurried home with the newspaper.

As soon as she entered the house, she went to find Tian's mother, and Tao Junle was responsible for closing the door.

Seeing her in such a hurry, Tian's mother thought she was someone from Shanghai, and went out to greet her excitedly. However, when she saw that there were only Tong Jia and Tao Junle in the yard, she couldn't help but look a little disappointed.

Tong Jia pulled Tian Ma into the house, sat on the round stool beside the dining table, and pointed the information in the newspaper to Tian Ma.

When Tian's mother saw the news, her face was also solemn.

Tong Jia asked, "Mother Tian, I remember Sister Zhao said that Yang Jixia is now a businessman from outside the province.

He made his fortune in Kouwai, so...will the establishment of the Chahar people's allied army against Fuso have any impact on his plans?

Can he pull himself out of it? Is it possible that this is the reason why he hasn't come out yet?

Tian Ma was silent for a long time. Then she said, "These are just our guesses. Comrade Yang Jixia is a comrade with a lot of experience in struggle. We have to believe that he has the ability to resolve the crisis."

He had contact with Shanghai before the New Year and never went back.

Whether it is the affairs of Rehe or Chahar, he should not be implicated.

We should just live our lives according to the routine and not make any moves. What if someone is secretly watching us?

If we contact the organization, it will not only expose the organization, but also cause trouble for Comrade Yang Jixia."

So, Tong Jia and the others continued their life as usual for another half month.

In fact, a week ago, when Tong Jia went out, she felt like she was being watched.

Sometimes I look back, but I can’t see anyone.

Tong Jia asked Lao Qian, but Lao Qian did not give her a direct answer. He just told her to continue living her life as usual.

Then Tong Jia understood that it must be her elder brother-in-law who sent someone to check whether her situation was true.

That means that I will meet people from the Rong family soon.

Tong Jia has been particularly anxious these days.

Almost every day before going to bed, she would clasp her hands together and pray, hoping that Grandma Rong would give her a dream at night.

Tell her more about the Rong family.

When she first came here, Grandma Rong's first half of life really flashed through her mind like a kaleidoscope.

However, as she controlled this body longer, her mind was filled with her own memories of her past life, and the memories related to Grandma Rong became increasingly faint.

She recalled carefully again and again, but could only remember that when she was a child, no, when Rong Xintong was a child, because she was the first child in the family, she grew up with her grandparents and did not have much contact with her other brothers and sisters.

But even if there are not many, there is still a way to get along with each other.

Although she wanted to cover up the difference between her and Rong Xintong by saying that she was deeply hurt by Yang Jixia and her personality changed drastically, when facing her family, there are always some small details that cannot be changed.

These require Rong Xintong - Grandma Rong herself to give her hints.

However, she has been praying for a month since she received this task, but neither Grandma Rong nor her grandmother has appeared in her dreams.

It is now the hot and restless June, and Jiangcheng has been a famous "furnace" in China since ancient times.

Tong Jia, who was already worried, became even more unable to sleep due to the hot weather.

Opening the window of the room and looking down from the second floor, you can see shops lining the street. Although it is already night, you can occasionally hear the melodious sound of erhu coming from not far away. I don’t know which teahouse it is, but it is still open.

Tong Jia didn't get up and close the window until she could no longer hear the faint sound of the erhu.

As soon as I closed the window, I felt a stuffy heat.

She opened the window again.

This time, she saw two men in suits and top hats standing stealthily outside her gate.

The two people were talking in low voices with their heads down, without looking up, knocking on the door, or calling out.

This gave Tong Jia a bad feeling in her heart.

She hurried to wake up Tao Junle and Tian Ma, and asked them to prepare to fight the enemy.

Tao Junle went to the bathroom to get a bucket of water and waited by the window on the second-floor stairs. Tian Ma and Tong Jia each took a shovel from the utility room.

The two men walked to the gate of the courtyard, one in front of the other. When they were hesitating whether to take the initiative to attack or passively meet the enemy, they heard one of them ask the other: "Do you have a knife?"

If Tian Ma wasn't there, Tong Jia would definitely have eliminated the two dangers with a silenced pistol as she did before.

But now that Tian's mother is here, she can't explain the origin of the silenced pistol.

She could only use cold weapons like shovels to resist. Weapons were not very useful to her. She and Tian Ma were both women, so they would definitely not be able to defeat the two men outside in terms of physical strength.

So, Tong Jia and Tian Ma both chose to take the initiative.

Mother Tian placed the shovel by the door, opened the bolt as quickly as possible, picked up the shovel, and hit the people outside.

The two men outside were a little surprised when they saw the courtyard gate suddenly opened. Before they could react, they saw two shovels coming towards their faces.

The taller one obviously reacted faster. He took a step back and pulled the man, who was half a head shorter than him, back slightly.

As a result, the tall man was unharmed, while the short man had a bloody cut on his nose.

Seeing that they hadn't hurt anyone's vital parts, Tian Ma pushed Tong Jia back into the yard and said, "Lock the door from the inside. I'm going to fight these two bastards today!"

The shorter man wiped the blood from his nose and stiffened his neck before demanding, "What did we do? Are we bastards?"

You crazy woman, you hit me with a shovel without any reason as soon as I opened the door. What did I do to offend anyone?

I didn’t bring a gun today. If I had, you wouldn’t be able to talk to me here. You…”

"Mrs. Tian, why are you not sleeping in the middle of the night and suddenly rushing out with a shovel? Is someone causing trouble for you?" The tall man asked immediately when he saw the shorter man about to take action.

Mother Tian was stunned, her mind spinning rapidly. She asked uncertainly, "Are you Mr. Yang?"

The tall man took off his hat, stepped forward, shook Tian Ma's hand, and said, "Yes, it's been so long since we last met, Tian Ma, don't you recognize me?"

While shaking hands, basic information between the two parties was exchanged using Morse code.

When Tian's mother learned the identity of the visitor, she excitedly said, "Sir, how long have you not been home? Tian's mother is old and her eyesight is not very good. She can't recognize people at night. You have come to the door, why don't you come in? What are you doing standing at the door?"

My wife and I thought he was some bandit or gangster, and we were ready to defend our innocence with shovels."

"Protecting your innocence? My elder sister's innocence needs to be protected, but you're an old lady, what else is there to protect? Wait, I'm going to the hospital to bandage it now. If there's no scar left, we can talk about anything.

"If it leaves a scar, you'll definitely suffer the consequences. What a jerk! Bah! What bad luck!" Although the shorter man didn't want to fight back, he still looked very angry.

Yang Jixia winked at Tian Ma and said angrily, "Look at how blind you are. This Mr. Diao Yongting is a high-ranking official in Shanghai and your wife's brother-in-law.

You even dare to hurt him. I think your wife is too indulgent to you.

Hurry up and call your wife out, take some money, and send Mr. Diao to the hospital first!"

Tian Ma quickly pretended to have made a mistake, bowed and walked to the shorter man, and said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Diao. You see, I'm just eager to protect my master. Please don't argue with me, an old and dim-sighted servant.

I……"

"Okay, if there's a problem, just fix it quickly. It's not certain whether it will leave a scar, so let's think about how to settle the score first.

It was me who asked Tian Ma to hit you with the shovel just now. If you want to settle the score, come find me.

How can I entrust my life to such a petty man?

Aren't we going to the hospital? Let's go! Why should I go if the injured people don't go? " After learning the identities of the two people, Tong Jia changed her clothes as quickly as possible and came down to help Tian Ma.

She walked in front with a small bag in her hand. When she passed by Yang Jixia, she rolled her eyes at him.

Diao Yongting was shocked by Tong Jia's beauty. Thinking of the well-behaved Rong Xinzi at home, he felt that Rong Xintong, who had a hot temper, was not as good as her.

He didn't have time to be angry anymore, and pushed Yang Jixia to chase Tong Jia.

The two big men took big steps and walked fast, and soon caught up with Tong Jia, who was wearing a cheongsam and high heels.

Diao Yongting said: "Hello, sister. My name is Diao Yongting, and I currently work in the Shanghai Municipal Government.

Because of work, I met my brother-in-law and realized that we are a family.

I heard that my elder sister was studying at a university in Jiangcheng, and I have wanted to visit her for a long time, but I was too busy with work, so I put it off until today.

I heard from Xinzi that the eldest sister has the best temper and personality in the family. When I saw her today, hehe..."

"What? Do you have any problem with my temper and personality?" Tong Jia turned around and glanced at him, asking bluntly.

Yang Jixia said: "If you are angry with me, just vent it on me. Don't spread your target too wide.

This is your first meeting with your brother-in-law. What impression did you leave on him?

"What impression? My own man ran away on our wedding night. I went through so much hardship and suffering, and finally found him.

The result? People looked down on me for being undereducated and worldly-wise.

Just leave me alone in Jiangcheng and leave me alone.

The excuse is that it allows me to go to college, gain knowledge, and be worthy of you when I go out.

Really? You're just afraid that having me by your side will affect your life with your lover, right?

You ungrateful and stinking men are all the same, how can you expect me to be nice to you?

Go to the hospital by yourself, I won't accompany you anymore." Tong Jia thought that she had to go back and check again as soon as possible. There were some things in her room that were not suitable to be seen and needed to be taken back to the RV.

If I accompany him to the hospital, Yang Jixia will definitely follow me into the room when I come back, and that would expose my true identity.

So, I took this as an excuse to go home.

After Tong Jia left, Diao Yongting seemed to have completely forgotten about his noseache and was lost in thought as he stared at Tong Jia's graceful back.

After Yang Jixia coughed unhappily, Diao Yongting finally realized that the figure was his sister-in-law and that his behavior just now was a bit inappropriate.

After the wound was bandaged in the hospital, Diao Yongting asked curiously, "Brother-in-law, you only said that my eldest sister was studying in Jiangcheng, but you didn't tell me why.

What? From what I heard from the elder sister just now, it wasn't her own will, but she was forced by you?"

Yang Jixia sighed and said, "Yongting, we are both men, I believe you should be able to understand me.

I am the most educated person in our area, and I have always wanted to find a woman with whom I share the same language to be my future life partner.

But...ah...this arranged marriage..."

He shook his head as he spoke, looking as if he was at a loss for words.

Diao Yongting said: "I understand your difficulties, brother-in-law. I came back from studying in Japan. I also wanted to find a woman with the same experience as me. But in the end, I couldn't bear the pressure of continuing the family line, so I finally married Rong Xinzi.

But then again, brother-in-law, now that you're married, just live a good life.

If you want to find Jieyuhua, you can go look for her outside."

"I looked for it, but she found it, didn't she?

It turns out that his personality is just like water. Although a little unpresentable, he is still obedient.

Ever since she found out that I had found someone outside, not only did she chase the person away, but her temper also took a complete turn, from water to fire.

She is now like a powder keg. Not to mention a little fire, even a stick of almost burnt incense can make her explode.

I let her study here because I wanted her to have more interactions with the students, learn how gentle they are, and stop acting like a shrew every day.

If this continues, I really can’t stand it anymore.” Yang Jixia complained bitterly to Diao Yongting.

Diao Yongting rolled his eyes and said, "Brother-in-law, this is where you're wrong.

You want a woman to be gentle, but how can you send her to school? Isn't that just making yourself uncomfortable?

If you really want to ease the relationship with your elder sister, just listen to me. After we finish the things in Jiangcheng in a few days, we will take your elder sister back to Shanghai.

The soft and gentle Wu dialect is the land of tenderness! "

After Yang Jixia agreed to take Tong Jia (Rong Xintong) back to Shanghai, he first sent Diao Yongting back to the hotel, and he returned to the small courtyard where the conflict had just occurred.

He was standing under a tree not far from the entrance of the courtyard. Tong Jia and Tao Junle were looking down from the windows on the second floor, and all three of them saw each other.

After the awkward meeting just now, Tong Jia did not feel uncomfortable when they met again this time. She raised her chin towards Tao Junle, and he took the initiative to go down and open the door.
