Anti-Japanese War: When I get promoted, the system will explode with soldiers

"Are you really going back north with me?"

When he opened his eyes, it was already another morning. The matter in Pujiang had basically been resolved. Li Shaoyi was about to return to the north, and Miss Yu also packed her luggage, ready to follow her husband.

"Marry a chicken, follow the chicken; marry a dog, follow the dog. Are we going to live apart?"

Yu Qiu'er said this with some displeasure, but she was thinking about something else. Could it be that her husband had a woman of his own in the north, and he had kept her in the dark all this time? Was he afraid his lie would be exposed this time?

"Then you should bring some thick clothes. Although the temperature is still quite high, we might be going to the Xiongnu steppes. If we go there, your winter clothes will be enough."

When Yu Qiuer heard that Li Shaoyi was afraid that he could not adapt to the environment, a smile immediately appeared on her face.

"Don't worry, I've already had a lot of winter clothes made for me, and some for you, but you probably can't wear them. Do you have to wear a military uniform every day in the north?"

Yu Qiuer pointed to several large boxes beside her, which were all filled with winter clothes. Li Shaoyi felt a little dizzy. After all, she was the eldest daughter from a wealthy family, and these luggages were enough for more than a dozen people.

However, for Miss Yu, these things have been streamlined several times.

"When you go to the army, you naturally have to wear a military uniform, but you can wear casual clothes at other times. If you have finished packing, we will go to Nanjing tomorrow and then go directly back to the north. Has father told us?"

Others had been packing up for a long time, and Li Shaoyi couldn't just stay in bed.

"Let's have lunch together at noon. After lunch, my father will go to Yangcheng. He has some business to take care of there."

Li Shaoyi looked at the time. There were still two hours before lunch, so he could get up and handle some official business. Although he was at his wife's house, he also opened a study for himself. Two secretaries and some security personnel also lived there. Fortunately, the house in Yu Mansion was big enough.

During lunch, Li Shaoyi saw a woman in her thirties standing next to the old man. She was wearing a women's suit and looked like a business woman.

"My dad's assistant, you can just call me Aunt Chen."

It was obvious that Miss Yu didn't like this assistant very much, and she was listless when introducing her to Li Shaoyi. The Yu Qiuer that Li Shaoyi knew was always polite, and it seemed that she really had some opinions about Aunt Chen.

It was obvious that Aunt Chen was not very interested in Qiu'er. She just smiled briefly and nothing else happened. She also had no intention of talking to Li Shaoyi.

Li Shaoyi quickly understood that this was not a normal assistant, but his father-in-law's confidante.

"Commander Li, Miss Yu."

In addition to Ms. Chen, there was a chair next to her, and a young man in his twenties was standing on it. According to Yu Qiuer's introduction, this man was Ms. Chen's son, who currently worked as the deputy financial manager in their shipping company.

Li Shaoyi smiled and shook hands with the other person, then looked at him carefully and concluded that this young man should not be the old man's illegitimate child. If he was the old man's illegitimate child, he would definitely be brought home when Yu Qiuer's brother died. A wealthy family would never let their bloodline be cut off.

During the meal, Li Shaoyi also realized that this young man was interested in his wife, or perhaps it was another old story from a wealthy family.

The son brought in by the concubine developed feelings for the original eldest daughter, but unfortunately the eldest daughter doesn't even look down on your mother, let alone you.

Then the eldest daughter found a powerful husband, which made it even more difficult for the young man to gain a foothold. Li Shaoyi's imagination was also very strong, but he was not afraid of any trouble from the mother and son. In the face of absolute strength, no one could defeat him with conspiracy and trickery.

"Qiu'er has been spoiled by me since she was a child and has never left home. This time she followed you to the north. If there is anything wrong, please consider my face."

Grandpa Yu picked up the wine glass, and Li Shaoyi quickly picked up the wine glass with both hands. There is a certain etiquette here, and the glass only touched the bottom of Grandpa Yu's glass. Grandpa Yu was very satisfied with this etiquette of clinking glasses.

Even though her son-in-law is a powerful general in public and dares to slam the table in front of many ministerial-level officials in Nanjing, he just does what he wants in front of her. The sense of satisfaction in her heart cannot be replaced by anything else.

"Don't worry, father-in-law. I will obey her in everything. I promise nothing will happen. Also, I have increased my vigilance this time when you go out. I hope you don't mind."

The conflict with the Japanese became increasingly serious, and conflicts with Western countries also emerged. Therefore, those who stayed in Pujiang had to increase their own protection forces. The 42 people around the old man worked in three shifts, plus the old man’s own bodyguards, to ensure safety.

"Why should I mind? I'm just an old man and I don't have any secrets. I'd love for you to find someone to protect me. Besides, your people are no slackers. Last time, a competitor threatened me and planted a bomb in my car. I didn't expect your people to dismantle the bomb in less than half an hour, and they were able to discover it right away. My people are no match for that."

Thinking of the bomb scare that time, both Mr. Yu and his daughter were a little scared. Li Shaoyi also took the opportunity to observe Ms. Chen and her son. The two of them looked normal. The bomb should not have been placed by them, but there was no worry about the old man in their eyes. It seemed that it was a purely monetary transaction.

Li Shaoyi doesn't care about everything, especially what happens in his father-in-law's bed. It has nothing to do with him. As long as the other party does not involve his own interests, he can do whatever he wants.

The lunch was quite harmonious. The old man was going to Guangzhou in the afternoon. Of course, with the private plane given by Li Shaoyi, he didn't need to squeeze with others for the flight, and it was safer.

After the old man and Chen's mother and son left, Li Shaoyi saw several guards from the Yu family following them.

These people followed after seeing the look in their daughter-in-law's eyes. It seemed that their daughter-in-law was not a little white rabbit either.

"Do you suspect the mother and son of the Chen family?"

Li Shaoyi asked the question even though he knew the answer.

"Aunt Chen has always coveted our family's wealth and wants her son to get both you and my wife..."
