Hearing the conversation between the two women, Yang Pojun looked at his daughter-in-law, who he wasn't familiar with.
He used to work in the Jiang Nan military region, so he knew that Lin Ruoxi was one of the richest women in Zhong Hai. She was also a cold-blooded CEO who was feared by many businessmen. She had quietly destroyed the Xu family and the Zeng family's company.
Although he had met her a few times before, he didn't have a deep conversation with her. He only thought that such a woman was spoiled and cruel. He didn't expect her to do volunteer work in an orphanage.
However, he didn't care much about charity work, so he thought that Lin Ruoxi was too young to do proper work.
As a matter of fact, he didn't really support Guo Xuehua's charity work. First of all, there was a special department to do it. Second of all, the wife of the Yang Family didn't hang out in the circle of wealthy ladies. Instead, she went around doing charity work and raising money.
However, since Yang Gongming always said that he supported her, Yang Pojun didn't dare to say anything.
In any case, the women went back after picking out the mooncakes. Yang Pojun was greatly relieved. He already had three or four bags of women's clothing in his hands. After walking for two or three hours, his face was turning green.
Yang Cheng was holding at least ten bags of miscellaneous things in his hands. He was sniffing the mooncakes as if he was trying to find the most fragrant ones. As for what he could smell, only he knew.
After the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law finished picking out the mooncakes, they walked out of the store and headed to the parking lot.
When they were about to cross the road, a dark green Jeep suddenly stopped on the side.
The car window was rolled down, and two unfamiliar middle-aged men appeared in the car.
"Hey, no wonder you look familiar. Isn't that Commander Yang?"
Yang Pojun looked at the two men in military uniforms in the car and his face darkened. However, he still said reluctantly, "Oh, it's General Ning and General Zhou."
Yang Cheng noticed the military ranks on the shoulders of the two men. One was a lieutenant general, while the other was a major general. He then looked at the license plate of the jeep. It was from the Yanjing military region. He didn't even need to think to know where it came from.
"Old Zhou, that's where you're wrong. Brother Yang stopped being a commander a long time ago. He's planning to teach in a military school now. He should be called Professor Yang," General Ning said seriously, but it was clear that his tone was full of mockery.
As expected, Yang Pojun's face darkened. He put on a fake smile and said, "If there's nothing else, we'll take our leave first."
"Looks like Brother Yang is in a hurry!" General Ning glanced at Yang Cheng and the others on the side, "I really envy you, the happiness of a family. Younger Brother Yang, you are really lucky to have the time to accompany your wife to go shopping. Look at what you bought … Hey, it looks like women's clothes. Brother, you really love your wife. "
"Haha, Old Ning, Yang Si … Oh no, if Professor Yang didn't love the fairer sex, would he have retired so early?" General Zhou laughed weirdly, "I think we shouldn't waste his time. I'm afraid that helping women carry clothes is an unknown hobby of Professor Yang."
The veins on Yang Pojun's forehead bulged, but he couldn't say a single word.
Yang Cheng stood there as if nothing had happened. Lin Ruoxi nudged his waist and asked softly, "What?"
"You … Why don't you help him!" Yang Cheng chuckled, "What does it have to do with me?"
Lin Ruoxi pouted, but she didn't know what to say.
"Alright, alright," General Ning waved his hand and said, "Younger Brother Yang, Old Zhou and I still have to attend a banquet. Old Zhang from the General Staff Department has a grandson. He's treating us to a drink. Sigh … I'm really busy. Goodbye!"
After saying that, the window was rolled up again and the jeep drove away.
Vaguely, before the window was closed, a disdainful 'bastard' could be heard from inside …
Needless to say, it was referring to the current Yang Family. Although Yang Gongming had dealt with the matter decisively and calmed down the Yang Family bloodline storm, the real high-ranking officials must have secretly looked down on the Yang Family's bloodline.
Yang Pojun took a deep breath, but his face was still red like a pig's liver.
As the saying goes, when people leave, the tea cools. After losing his position and power, he was filled with unwillingness and helplessness from being ridiculed.
What was more painful was that the bloodline that he was once proud of no longer existed.
Guo Xuehua saw that her husband was so upset and said sadly, "Don't be angry, it's bad for your body. Just ignore them. Now that they have the entire power of the Beijing military, of course they have to show off. They're just petty people, they won't amount to much."
"Hmph!" Yang Pojun scoffed coldly, "Where did Lie 'er go!? He's the only one from the Yang Family in the Beijing military, but he disappeared without a trace! "
At the mention of Yang Lie, Guo Xuehua was also a little worried, "Who knows, they didn't even contact him. The Kunlun Sect's Daoist Yujizi also said that he didn't go to the sect. That kid … it's fine as long as he's fine."
Suddenly remembering that Yang Cheng and his wife were still next to them, Guo Xuehua was afraid that Yang Cheng would be angry, so she quickly smiled and said, "Alright, alright, cheer up. What's done is done, let's go back to the car."
Yang Cheng didn't care, he was just a clown who could be killed if he wanted to. Anyway, he didn't say these words to him. Seeing Yang Pojun's bitter face, he felt it was a little funny. Thinking back to his majestic appearance and calling him a 'bastard', it must be especially hard for him to accept being humiliated now.
"Mom, those two people are too rude, aren't they? Aren't they afraid of the Yang Family?" Lin Ruoxi said.
Guo Xuehua sighed, "Didn't you hear the surname of one of them just now? That General Ning is a collateral relative of the Ning Family, and that Zhou is also from the Ning Family. Right now, the Beijing military is under the control of the Ning Family. "
Lin Ruoxi finally understood, but she still didn't feel good. The Ning Family … to her, it was still a little special.
From this incident, although it didn't seem like it was open on the surface, secretly, the Ning Family had completely turned against the Yang Family.
After crossing the road, the four of them walked to the car in silence.
At this moment, from the corner of the street, a few little girls with dirty clothes and messy hair suddenly ran out.
These little girls looked to be around seven or eight years old, primary school age. They were wearing thin sweaters, and because of malnutrition, their eyes were big and their skin was a little tanned.
All four of them were holding black plastic bags in their hands, and the bags seemed to be filled with something.
"Uncle, uncle! Auntie! Let's buy some mooncakes! "
The children surrounded them noisily and opened the black plastic bags in their hands, revealing all kinds of mooncakes with simple packaging.
The children's eyes were full of hope and begging, and they widened their watery eyes, looking very pitiful.
Guo Xuehua and Lin Ruoxi were immediately filled with sympathy as they looked at the children with heartache.
"Little girl, don't be anxious. How much are these mooncakes?" Guo Xuehua asked as she patted the little girl's head.
When the little girl heard this, she was overjoyed. She grinned and said sweetly, "One yuan for one. How many do you want, Auntie?"
The price was cheap. Guo Xuehua looked at the big bags, and there were at least a hundred mooncakes in them. She exchanged glances with Lin Ruoxi, and Lin Ruoxi nodded understandingly.
"Let's buy all of them!" Lin Ruoxi said.
"Wait," Yang Cheng shouted. He took out a mooncake from one of the bags and showed it to the woman. "Look carefully, these mooncakes have expired and are moldy. The quality must be bad, or there's something wrong with the formula. You might die if you eat them."
Guo Xuehua and the others took a closer look, and there were indeed signs of moldy. When they took a closer look, even the manufacturer's print on the mooncake was blurry.
The little girl was anxious. She sobbed and tears rolled down her face, "Big brother … I beg you, buy a few mooncakes … I beg you …"
"Aiya, don't cry, don't cry," Guo Xuehua said sadly, "We'll buy them, we'll buy them, don't cry …"
"It's expired, so be it. At most, we won't eat them." Lin Ruoxi couldn't stand the scene and was about to take out money from her bag.
Yang Pojun was a little impatient. Although these children were pitiful, he wouldn't say anything. He just wanted to give them some money and go home as soon as possible.
"Why are you in such a hurry? Aren't you an idiot if you don't know what's going on?" Yang Cheng held Lin Ruoxi's hand and said.
Lin Ruoxi raised her head angrily, "Yang Cheng, do you have a conscience? This child is so skinny from hunger, what's wrong with buying some mooncakes out of pity? If you don't want to eat them, I'll eat them! It's none of your business even if they die! "
Yang Cheng was speechless. He smiled bitterly and shook his head, "Madam Lin Ruoxi, General Lin, Miss Lin, Empress Lin … Please don't misunderstand me, okay? What I mean is, these children were obviously forced to sell these inferior and expired mooncakes. Don't you think that instead of giving them money, it's better to find out who's behind the scenes? Otherwise, do you think the money to buy mooncakes would fall into the hands of these children? "
Lin Ruoxi and Guo Xuehua were stunned and looked at each other. It seemed to make sense.
The two women weren't stupid. It was just that when they encountered such an emotional scene, they only cared about crying and sympathizing. They didn't think too much about the situation behind them.
"Yes, yes, Yang Cheng is right. We can't just ignore it." Guo Xuehua quickly lowered her head and asked a girl, "Little friend, don't be afraid. Who asked you to sell these mooncakes? Did some bad guy bully you? "
When the little girl heard this question, her originally sallow and dark face turned extremely ugly. A deep trace of fear flashed through her eyes. After exchanging glances with the other three little girls, she suddenly turned around and ran towards a corner of the street!
