I wish the old lady is content with having a granddaughter now, and doesn't care whether her son is wronged or not.

Still a leader!

Who among the sons in this family dares to act like a leader in front of her? It's because her father-in-law passed away early. If he were still alive, this brat would still want to be a son. Become a grandson!

In the end, it was General Zhu who moved the pile of New Year's goods that Bai Nuo and his friends brought back into the house with his two soldiers.

Xiao Li and Xiao Wang didn't dare to object. The old lady had given the order herself, and even if they felt bad for their leader, they didn't dare to ask him to rest while they moved on.

As soon as Bai Nuo and Fang Meng entered the house, the old lady pulled them to the sofa one by one and gave them a good chat. The smile on the old lady's face never disappeared.

Around five o'clock in the afternoon, several other men in the Zhu family also returned one after another, including the two cousins ​​who stayed in Beijing.

The Zhu family has five sons and eight grandsons, which can be said to be a large family.

Currently, the only ones left in Jing City, apart from the eldest son Zhu Kaixuan's family, are the eldest son Zhu Kaige, who serves as the deputy commander of the Army General Headquarters, and the second son Zhu Kaize, who serves as the chief of the Kyoto Garrison.

It’s no wonder that so many people are jealous of the Zhu family, a family that came from “rural mud legs”, but no one dares to provoke them openly.

Not to mention Grandpa Zhu's position in the military, none of his sons are simple. They have not attended school for many days, but they are more powerful than each other. They seem fierce and reckless, but in fact, they are more cunning than each other. The most feared among them is the second son, Zhu Kaize, who is cruel and ruthless.

The five sons of the Zhu family have different personalities.

The eldest brother has been trained as the future head of the family since he was young. He has an upright character and a majestic demeanor. He is the biggest supporter of his younger brothers and always keeps abreast of the family's direction and overall situation.

The youngest, Zhu Kaixuan, is a natural born soldier. He has a hot temper and is stubborn. He will fight at the slightest disagreement and his policy towards his enemies is "If you can't kill me, I will kill you; if you can kill me, I will take you with me." But if you think he is a reckless general who only knows how to act recklessly, you are totally wrong. You might not even know how he died in the end.

As for Zhu Lao Er, he has been a black-hearted person since he was a child. He appears to be handsome and elegant on the surface. Although he is a military general, he likes to pretend to be a refined civil servant to let everyone down their guard, and then he will unexpectedly give the opponent a fatal blow from behind.

He followed his father and brothers to the battlefield when he was a teenager. After coming back from the battlefield, he relied on his own abilities to step by step become the head of the garrison.

That is the Kyoto Garrison, equivalent to the ancient Royal Guards, responsible for the defense of the capital, with a special status and key functions.

Although the other two sons were sent out by Grandpa Zhu to the south and the north respectively, they also gradually became senior officials in their respective military regions and held very important positions.

The Zhu family prospered after their five sons became successful. Those secretly jealous and madly envied could only pin their hopes on their grandchildren, hoping that their family would produce a few playboys who would ruin the old generation's reputation and give them the opportunity to step on the Zhu family and rise to power.

The results of it?

The eight grandsons, from the eldest to the fifth, were stationed in various places, working bravely and making continuous military achievements.

Lao Qi entered the public security system and, without relying on anyone, became the head of the criminal investigation team of the Liao Province Municipal Bureau at a young age. He was transferred back to Beijing a few years ago to serve as the chief of the criminal investigation section of the Public Security Bureau.

Lao Liu is the battalion commander of the Jingshi Field Army stationed in Zhuangshi, and is about to be promoted to deputy regimental commander. Like his brothers who are also in the military, he is also an outstanding officer who is being trained as a priority in their military region.

The only one left is Zhu Xiaoba, the one who is bent on "living off his brother". While others graduate from high school safely after two years, Zhu Xiaoba has studied in high school for three years and has not yet graduated. He just knows how to be silly and happy all day long. But no one believes that he is a heartless person. It's not that there are political enemies who send people to lure him into going astray to discredit the Zhu family.

Unfortunately, the people sent had just become good friends with Zhu Xiaoba and were having a great time when they were inexplicably put in a sack. They were either disabled or stupid, and no evidence could be found. When they asked Zhu Xiaoba, he was more shocked and aggrieved than anyone else, and kept shouting that he wanted to avenge his brother.

Now the old Zhu family finally recognized a younger grandchild, a girl that many families disdained. Some people thought their chance had come, but upon investigation...

Forget it!

This person has many powerful backers, and his childhood sweetheart is the rebellious son of the Fang family who even dares to point fingers at his own father. He is not to be trifled with at all!

At this moment, the Zhu family's living room was bustling with activity, even a little noisy, making the old man's head buzz.

What’s more, the old man couldn’t even get his precious granddaughter, which made him feel so wronged!

The key point is that his old wife was sitting next to him, so Commander Zhu didn't dare to say a word. In the end, he could only sneak into the kitchen in a cowardly manner to supervise his three sons cooking.

That’s right, the ones busy preparing dinner in the kitchen right now are Deputy Commander Zhu, Minister Zhu, and General Zhu who just got back from get off work, oh, and Commander Zhu who just slipped in.

Although these men with the surname Zhu hold high positions in their respective units, their status at home is surprisingly similar.

In order to welcome the little princess of the Zhu family home, the snacks were prepared by the daughters-in-law who rushed back to spend the New Year with the elderly, but they were not responsible for the main meals.

At this moment, they were all in the living room chatting with Old Madam Zhu, the little girl, and the future grandson-in-law who was sitting there a little nervously.

Zhu Bao, the seventh son of the Zhu family, came in from the backyard carrying a large carp that had just been processed. He glanced at Fang Meng expressionlessly, feeling very unbalanced.

As a male comrade from the Zhu family, the boy could usually sit quietly. When he passed by, his mother didn't even look at him. She was still enthusiastically peeling oranges for the boy surnamed Fang, smiling as if she had seen her own son who had been lost for many years.

Why!!

Why!!!

"Seventh brother, stop staring. In the eyes of the distinguished ladies in our family, a son-in-law or grandson-in-law is a rarity. They've been waiting for decades for one, and he's also well-behaved, filial, sweet-talking, sensible, and obedient to his wife. And yet... you still expect our grandmother, our mother, and our aunts to agree to him helping with the housework? Haha, do you think our grandmother can still wave her precious riding whip now?"

"Shut up, you!"

Zhu Bao kicked his brother on the butt.

His father loves his youngest brother, but he is not used to that. To him, his younger brothers are just for playing and beating.

He glared at his brother, who dared not speak out, and said bluntly, "Don't talk to me about anything else. Zhu Xiaoba, I'm telling you, if you can't graduate from high school this year, I'll send you to my elder brother and see if he'll forgive you."

Zhu Kai, the eldest of the Zhu family, currently serves as the deputy division commander of the Yunnan Border Military Region. He single-handedly raised his younger brothers. When the elders were busy and had no time to care for the children, the precocious Zhu Kai readily took on the responsibility of disciplining his younger brothers.

Once, I heard from a classmate that my second uncle’s three-year-old younger brother was almost misled by someone to pull the neighbor’s child’s skirt. He was so scared that he quickly ran to my second uncle’s house, beat up my younger brother, and then took the child home.

Afterwards, he asked his father to help inform several uncles and aunts: when a younger brother is born in the future, send him back to him when he can be a little independent. As the eldest brother, he will discipline him personally and will not have to trouble the uncles and aunts who are "too busy to beat the baby".

From then on, none of the boys in the Zhu family dared to grow up astray.

This also allowed the brothers of the Zhu family to inherit the tradition of their father: listen to the eldest brother in everything. The eldest brother is their biggest supporter and their mainstay.

Your younger brother is disobedient? No problem, just send him to his elder brother. When he comes back a few months later, he will still be the obedient and well-behaved little brother.

Zhu Guo shuddered with fear and quickly shook his head: "No, no, no, brother, I was wrong, I was really wrong! This year I promise not to hit the Dean of Academic Affairs, smash the windows of the PE teacher's concubine's house, and I won't pull the principal's hair again. I promise I can graduate!"

Zhu Bao listened to his brother's nonsense and rubbed his eyebrows helplessly, which resulted in his face being covered with the fishy smell. He immediately wanted to beat his brother even more.

Nowadays, schools are a mixed bag, especially those in Beijing, which are extremely polarized.

Some teachers are always trembling with fear, afraid that they will be taken away one day; some get in through the back door, and do not even have a high school diploma themselves, but they teach children high school knowledge, which is simply going against the grain.

But he had to go to school. If he didn't go to school, he would have to go to the countryside. How could he let his annoying brother go and bully his honest peasant comrades?

Isn’t that a sin!

The school was afraid of the Zhu family's power. In addition, the people who were bullied by Zhu Guo were not clean themselves, so they naturally did not dare to cause trouble for the Zhu family. However, they could find various reasons to make Zhu Guo repeat a grade, making him a laughing stock of the entire Zhu family.

In this regard, the Zhu family was too embarrassed to ask the school for mercy. After all, this kid's grades... were worse than tofu dregs!

"Zhu Xiaoguo, let me tell you, if you score in the single digits again this time, I will break your legs!" Zhu Bao gritted his teeth.

Although the men in the Zhu family weren't very good at studying, and a dislike for studying ran deep in their blood, the blame could easily be placed on Old Man Zhu, who had never been to school and felt sleepy even when reading. But... none of them had ever scored in the single digits on their exams.

Damn...it's still a single-digit total score!

This prodigal brother has made me lose face!

"What? Your brother scored in the single digits again this year?"

Yu Hongxin, the fourth daughter-in-law of the Zhu family, had been accompanying her husband in the military base for the past few years. She also worked at the trade union, so it was a rare opportunity for her to return home to spend the New Year with the elderly couple. Plus, with her youngest brother back home, she had a daughter the whole family had been longing for, and of course, she missed her two sons, so without hesitation, she left her husband, who had no vacation time, and rushed back to Beijing.

As soon as she saw her two sons quarreling near the kitchen, Yu Hongxin wanted to join in the fun. As a result, as she walked over holding her third sister-in-law's hand, she heard these words that made her blood pressure soar.

She looked at her youngest son with a look of dismay, frowning silently. Then, with a hint of gloating, she said, "Look at you, aren't you ashamed? Your father at least graduated from elementary school and then went to military school for two years. Your uncle is even more amazing, a former graduate of the Shanghai Military Academy. Now even your youngest sister is in college, how come you can't even graduate after three years of high school?"

Zhu Guo huddled in the corner with his mouth pursed, clutching his chest. He looked at his mother miserably, looking fragile and saying, "Ms. Yu Hongxin, Chairman Yu, let me remind you that I am your biological son, the one you carried in your womb for ten months! How could you hurt me so much? Although I..."

"Hello, big brother. I'm Bai Nuo."

At this moment, the voice of a little girl answering the phone came from the other side of the living room. Her voice was clear and pleasant, with a smile.

She glanced at the kind-faced old lady beside her, and subconsciously added, "Oh, by the way, I'm Zhu Jiu too."

Although she did not take her father's surname, and no one in the Zhu family asked her to change her surname, it was undeniable that since she returned to the Zhu family, she was the ninth daughter in the family.

So from the moment she stepped into the Zhu family, she was Bai Nuo, Wei Yan, the heir of the Wei family, and also Zhu Xiaojiu of the Zhu family.

The sound penetrated the bustling crowd, and Zhu Xiaoba, who had just been sitting on the ground and playing tricks, stood up suddenly.

With that standard standing posture, that look that is determined enough to join the party, and that sonorous and tenacious tone, he can be enlisted directly at the gate of any military region.

"Mother, please rest assured! I promise to get good grades in the exams this year. I will never let my family down, and I will never let my brother down!"
