Chapter 289 80-year-old military wife lying down x demobilized cook 9

"Sir, these are He Jiaping's second aunt and uncle."

Commander Liu sat calmly in his high seat: "Please sit down."

"Eh...okay, okay, Chief...Chief, this is the first time in my life I've seen such a high-ranking official."

The two men's cautious demeanor amused Chief Liu.

"Haha, just call me Lao Liu."

"I heard you don't want Comrade Xie from the cultural troupe to marry Comrade Xiao He, is that right?"

"Ah...yes, yes, slap!" He Mulian clapped her hands: "That's right, Chief Liu, my eldest sister's family died a long time ago, leaving only Jiaping as the only son. We've already found a wife for Jiaping back in our hometown, and she's about to marry into our family. We can't let him marry that Comrade Xie."

Chief Liu glanced at his adjutant.

The adjutant immediately understood what he wanted, turned around and left.

"Congratulations..."

He Mulian said with a smile, "Just call me Xiaolian."

"Um, Xiaolian, are you sure Comrade He Jiaping will be willing to marry the woman you found?"

"What's the big deal? He'll agree sooner or later. There's a saying that the parents' decision is the only one, and the matchmaker's words are the only one. Although we're not his biological parents, we're his only elders, so he should listen to us."

Chief Liu only wanted him to get married immediately so that his daughter would give up on him, but little did he know that it would lead to so many other things.

"Let me have someone invite He Jiaping over first," he said, frowning. "These things can't be forced."

"No, no, no..." Wu Xingtu quickly stepped forward: "Big leader, He Jiaping will definitely listen to what you say. You are a general and he is a soldier. How could he not obey your orders?"

There are very few people in the military who have a "flattering" look and manner of speaking; Wu Xingtu is a typical example of such a person.

His words made Chief Liu feel quite flattered. Yes, he was a general-level figure.

"I'll think about it. I also have a daughter, and I'm also very anxious about this important matter of marriage."

He Mulian wanted to say something more, but Wu Xingtu pulled her away, saying, "Thank you, sir; thank you, general."

He bowed as he spoke and left Chief Liu's office.

After walking a little further away, He Mulian asked him, "Why didn't you let me say a few more words?"

"Hey, are you stupid? Do you think these high-ranking officials have the patience to listen to your long-winded rambling?" Wu Xingtu pushed her hand away in disgust.

"Besides, what if he brings He Jiaping here? Have you forgotten what we talked about last night?"

"I haven't forgotten, but where are we going to find Jiaping a wife right now?"

"Money makes the world go round. Give those matchmakers some money first, and find them to take a look, whether they're blind, stupid, or have broken legs or arms."

He Mulian thought for a moment: "I don't need these. At least I need to have all four limbs intact, right?"

"Are you stupid? I just asked you to bring them here to make things look better."

"Oh," He Mulian nodded. As long as she wasn't just a pretty face, it wouldn't be a shame for her to have let her sister's family down.

Another adjutant appeared in Chief Liu's office.

“Tell the cultural troupe to hold off on Xie Weijiao’s paperwork for now…” He paused, then seemed to remember something else;

"No need to say anything more. That kid should marry Xie Weijiao. With someone like her as a wife, and Qianyu being a sensible person, she won't go looking for He Jiaping again."

Chief Liu poured himself some tea: "Tell me, why don't He Jiaping's family want him to marry Xie Weijiao?"

Xie Weijiao from the performing arts troupe is simply the ideal daughter-in-law in many people's hearts.

If it weren't for the fact that she was going to marry He Jiaping, he felt it wouldn't hurt to let his eldest son get to know Xie Weijiao.

The adjutant, head bowed, said, "He probably doesn't like Comrade Xie."

Commander Liu shook his head: "Strange, truly strange."
