When Hu Pei heard Mino's words, she immediately stopped crying. She wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with a tissue. She looked at Jiang Cheng with hope in her eyes and asked, "Is it true, Brother Jiang Cheng?"
In fact, she already knew Jiang Cheng's name on the boarding list, but she was too embarrassed to ask him. Unexpectedly, his wife was more enthusiastic than him and asked him to help her.
Jiang Cheng had to compromise under Mino's tyranny. He had no other skills, but he was good at dealing with hooligans. He smiled and said, "Of course, you can rest assured. I will stay in Beijing for a few days. If that kid dares to bother you again, you can call me. I will rush there immediately. I promise to make him obedient. I will definitely correct him and make him never dare to do it again."
Hu Pei was very happy when she heard that. She quickly took out her mobile phone from her bag and saved Jiang Cheng's number. She also tried to call him on the spot. When Jiang Cheng's mobile phone rang, she was relieved. Of course, she did not forget Jiang Cheng's QQ, WeChat, and Weibo. She added them all so that she could communicate with Jiang Cheng at any time in the future.
Hu Pei did not let Jiang Cheng send her home. Instead, she was sent to a bus stop. After arriving at the bus stop, there happened to be a Route 88 bus coming. Hu Pei quickly took out two coins from her bag and hopped on the bus with her suitcase and her small bag.
When Jiang Cheng saw Hu Pei get on the bus, he asked Mino to drive away. He could basically guess the condition of Hu Pei's family. Nowadays, which flight attendant didn't have a luxury car to pick them up? Those who didn't have a luxury car would at least take a taxi. It was estimated that there were very few people like Hu Pei who still took the bus. The only reasonable explanation was that Hu Pei's family's financial condition might not be very good, and her family was definitely not good either. That was why the hooligan dared to bully a little girl so arrogantly.
Jiang Cheng silently took out a cigarette from his pocket and was about to light it, but it was snatched away by Mino, who was driving. She said unhappily, "Can't you smoke less? Look at you now, smoking all day. Let me tell you, my grandpa's health isn't good. This time, he can come home from the hospital for the New Year, but you can't smoke in front of him. That will arouse his smoking addiction. The doctor said that he must not smoke. If you dare to smoke in my house, see if I don't punish you! "
Jiang Cheng laughed and asked, "Punish me? How will you punish me? Don't tell me you won't let me go to your embroidery bed? "
When Mino heard that he began to make dirty jokes again, she pouted and muttered, "Go to hell, you're not serious!"
When Jiang Cheng heard this, he was unhappy. He retorted, "How am I not serious? It's natural for a man and a woman to have sex. Besides, it's not like you haven't slept with me before. What happened that night? You almost squeezed a strong man like me dry."
When Mino heard that he had exposed her ugly behavior that night, she was furious. She immediately turned her head and stopped looking at him, concentrating on driving. Seeing that Mino seemed to be angry, Jiang Cheng didn't dare to tease her anymore. He had to lower the chair, lie on it, and close his eyes to rest.
Ten minutes later, Mino drove the Mercedes-Benz into the old city within the Second Ring Road. The yard looked very old, but it was very clean. Mino parked the car at the door of a siheyuan. She woke up Jiang Cheng, who was pretending to be asleep, and took him into the siheyuan.
Looking at the clean siheyuan, Jiang Cheng exclaimed, "Mino, I didn't expect you to be so rich. The siheyuan in Beijing is not cheap. This one will cost at least ten million yuan! You're rich! "
Mino smiled and took Jiang Cheng's hand into the siheyuan. She took him to the main room first. As soon as they entered the main room, Jiang Cheng saw a table full of dishes. There were four people sitting at the table, two of whom Jiang Cheng knew. They were Mi Yi and Mi Yan. There was also an old man with white hair and a white beard, and a young woman who looked very well-maintained. It was estimated that they were the old man and her aunt that Mino had mentioned. But when he saw the old man, Jiang Cheng was slightly surprised. The old man looked so familiar. He seemed to have seen him somewhere.
Jiang Cheng hurried forward and apologized, "I'm late. My flight was a little late. I'm sorry!"
Old Mi was in high spirits today. It was the third day of the Chinese New Year. His granddaughter had said that Jiang Cheng would come from Jiangnan to visit him. Although Old Mi didn't agree with the relationship between her and Jiang Cheng, he felt much better when he heard that a young man like Jiang Cheng had such thoughts. He smiled and waved at Jiang Cheng. "Don't be so polite. Come and sit. As a soldier, you don't have to put on airs."
Jiang Cheng remembered that Old Mi was a high-ranking general in the army. No wonder he looked so familiar. He was a retired general from the General Staff Headquarters. He saluted and said loudly, "Reporting, Lieutenant Colonel Jiang Cheng of the Wolf Fang Special Forces pays his respects to you. I wish you a happy new year!"
When Old Man Mi saw Jiang Cheng's standard military salute, he returned the salute solemnly and said, "Wolf Fang Brigade, the Blade of the Nation, you are indeed the sons and daughters of China. Come, grandson-in-law, sit down and have a drink with me!"
These words made Jiang Chengcheng depressed. How did a military salute make him the son-in-law of the general? This was too much. But since the general had given the order, he had to obey it. He sat down next to Old Mi, picked up the glass of wine on the table, and drained it in one gulp. A glass of wine with 55 degrees Celsius was poured into his stomach.
Old Mi saw Jiang Cheng drink and clapped his hands. "Good, you do have the bearing of a soldier. Come, have a few more drinks with me."
Mino, who was sitting beside Jiang Cheng, panicked. She quickly advised, "Grandpa, you can't drink too much. The doctor said that you can't drink or smoke. You've already had a drink with Jiang Cheng. Don't drink anymore. What if …"
The old general waved his hand. "Sigh, it's not that serious. I know my own body. My grandson-in-law is here to visit. It's such a happy occasion, such a happy day. How can I not drink a few more? You, don't try to persuade me. "
When Mino heard the old general's words, she became anxious. There was a reason why she didn't let them drink. Half of it was for the sake of her grandfather's health, and the other half was for Jiang Cheng. She knew that Jiang Cheng couldn't drink. Last time, he only drank a little at the victory party, and he was already drunk. She and Qin Qin couldn't even hold him up. Now that her grandfather and Jiang Cheng wanted to drink a few more glasses, what if both of them got drunk at the same time? It would be bad if something happened to the old man and he was sent to the hospital during the New Year.
Mi Yi's family of three also hurriedly persuaded the old general to drink less. It was enough for him to be happy after one glass, but he shouldn't get addicted to it. Jiang Cheng also tried to persuade him. The glass of white wine just now was at least 100ml. He drank it in one gulp, and now his stomach was burning with pain. He didn't dare to drink like that again. He couldn't hold his liquor. He could make do with beer, but if he drank a few glasses of white wine, he would definitely fall under the table and sleep for two days and two nights.
Seeing that everyone was persuading him, the old general had no choice but to put down the bottle in his hand. He poured himself a glass of juice and said to the group of young people, "How about it? I'll drink juice, okay?"
Everyone relaxed when they saw this. As long as you don't drink, anything is fine. You really can't drink with your old body. Old General Mi was speechless as he looked at the group of juniors. He couldn't help but think that if his eldest son hadn't died, he would definitely accompany this old man and drink to his heart's content. However, he didn't expect that a war would end his young life. Thinking of his eldest son's grave, he couldn't help but cry.
Mi Yi saw that his father had tears in his eyes again and knew that he must be missing his eldest brother, Mi Zhou. He hurriedly comforted him, "Dad, don't be sad. I believe my eldest brother must be living a good life in the underworld. He was such a strong man. Even the King of Hell wouldn't dare to bully him!"
With that, the atmosphere at the table became sad. Mino also began to cry softly. Mi Yi and his son also had tears in their eyes. Jiang Cheng looked at them and couldn't help but remember that Mino had once told him that his father had died in Vietnam. He couldn't help but say, "Grandpa, Uncle, he must be the best soldier. Come, for Uncle, we have to drink three big glasses today!"
As he said this, he picked up the bottle of Wuliangye that had just been opened from the ground and poured himself a full glass. Then, he poured the juice in the glass in front of the old general and poured another glass of white wine. He also filled up the half glass of white wine in front of Mi Yi. Then, he put down the bottle and raised the glass in his hand to the two elders. "Grandpa, Uncle, come, let's drink to Uncle. He's a good man!"
The old general and Mi Yi were all excited to see Jiang Cheng's actions, especially the old general. Jiang Cheng looked exactly the same as his eldest son when he went to war. They were both so heroic and handsome. He wiped his tears and raised his glass to Jiang Cheng, "Come, cheers!"
