She sighed again and said, Your matters are my matters. Weve known each other for more than 40 years, and you dont have any siblings either. Youve also lost contact with the people in your hometown. Seeing you alone makes my heart ache. Why dont I help you?

Old Xia is a stubborn donkey. Old Du and I have experienced it. We have to talk about this together. You cant do it by yourself, Old Xia is no longer a small regimental commander. Hes the commander in chief now. If he has the will, you wont be able to defeat him.

It was one thing to hear too many of these things. If one was young, these words might have had a small effect. If one was older, it would be difficult to be swayed by such things.

Madam Xiao, who was listening quietly, did not interrupt Madam Li. She sat there gracefully with a gentle smile on her lips.

After her friend finished speaking, she smiled and said, Old Xia has never been a bad person. Youre still biased against him. Alright, lets not talk about the father and son. Has Jiayi arrived? I miss her too much.

She calmly changed the topic. After Madam Lis gaze darkened, she smiled and said, Shes here. When she didnt see you, she started making a fuss. She pushed me out to look for you.

Then, why are the two of us still sitting here? Lets go. We cant let her wait for too long. Madam Xiao stood up happily and sighed with emotion. A daughter is still the best. A daughter is a mothers sweetheart. Chenglan, youre blessed.

There was no one who didnt like their children being praised. Madam Lis greatest sense of accomplishment was having two children by her side. As her smile crept up her face, the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes deepened. Im not like you. Youre someone who chases after what you want and lets go

once you want to.

The two of them walked out of the room while talking and laughing, Suddenly, Madam Xiao sighed. I was even thinking of getting Du Jiayi and Ah Yuan together. What a pity.

However, what was there to pity? Madam Xiao didnt mention everything, and Li Chenglan smiled but didnt say anything either. Unfortunately, the Xia and Du families had different political views and were destined not to be in-laws.

After they returned home and Madam Li was done talking about the matter, Staff Officer Du had a grave expression on his face. After thinking for a long time, he said, Xiao Shuman suddenly asked the two of us not to interfere. Does she know something?

What does she know? Old Du, Shuman is not stupid. She knows what shes doing the best. Madam Li, who was lying in the ma.s.sage chair and relaxing her muscles, said calmly, Ive known her for 40 years. I know her, and she knows me. She has seen what Ive done, and she never exposes me because

those things have nothing to do with her.

Shuman would never worry about things that have nothing to do with her.

Staff Officer Du did not understand what his wife said. In his eyes, Xiao Shuman was a person who did not have a deep mind. People would do everything for her and she did not have any opinions.

You said that she lives her life well, but I think shes just a fool. I dont understand whats going on between you two women, and Im too lazy to figure it out either. As long as Xia Xinhui doesnt have a chance to rise again in the next two years, Ill feel at ease.

Women schemed at home while men schemed for power outside. What Staff Officer Du needed was power and influence.

Tl do what I have to do, and youll do what you have to do. Were already grandparents, so its perfectly fine to be a little vague sometimes. Madam Li didnt say what she was going to do next. She closed her eyes as if she was sleeping.

It was tiring to worry over things when one was older. However, it was impossible not to worry..
