The car slowly stopped in the open space next to the Zhu family's wrought iron fence, and Zhu Kaixuan was the first to get out.
The tall, imposing man straightened his grass-green woolen overcoat, a garment typically worn by high-ranking military officers, and looked up with a smile as he walked toward his mother and two sisters-in-law who were coming to greet him.
"Mom, sister-in-law, second sister-in-law..."
Grandma Zhu pushed aside her youngest son, who was in the way, and greeted the little girl who had just gotten off the bus with a big smile.
"My dear granddaughter, let Grandma see you! Oh my, my granddaughter is so beautiful!"
The old lady was a cheerful and generous person when she was young. She was very nervous before meeting her granddaughter, but when she finally met her, she was no longer nervous and was filled with joy and love.
She had been waiting for this little girl for decades.
Before she got married, she dreamed of having a delicate and sweet little daughter, but unfortunately, that old man surnamed Zhu was useless; he had four sons in a row and that wasn't enough. Then, by accident, she got pregnant again, and she happily waited for ten months, only to find out it was another boy.
With no other option, she could only pin her hopes on her sons...
Good heavens, their four sons are just like their father, they don't have a single granddaughter, but they bring home grandsons like they're free.
She had already given up hope, but unexpectedly, in the end, she had to rely on her youngest son to live up to her expectations and help her beloved daughter-in-law fulfill her dream.
The Zhu family finally has a daughter!
The old lady grew more and more agitated as she thought about it, her eyes reddening. For so many years she had kept it from him, even concealing it from her husband; he truly believed she didn't know about the child's existence.
finally……
"Grandma has been waiting day and night, and finally our precious girl is back. You suffered those two years, didn't you? Don't feel wronged, Grandma will get revenge for everything you endured. Now that you're home, Grandma will never let you suffer any more. If anyone dares to make you suffer, Grandma will chop them up with a knife."
The old lady spoke loudly and forcefully, showing no intention of holding back, and she didn't hide anything from the children, saying whatever came to mind.
None of the onlookers, curious onlookers, or even those who disliked Old Lady Zhu dared to utter a word.
This old lady had a fierce temper when she was young; she would explode at the slightest provocation, and there was no one in the military or political circles she dared not beat.
Who would dare mess with her? She's the kind of person who'd drag her enemies down with her if she disagreed with them. She's a fearless, reckless old scoundrel.
The old lady wasn't afraid of gossip. The Zhu family was an honest and upright family, with ancestors for eighteen generations all from poor peasant backgrounds. The old couple had a long history of meritorious service and had always been upright and honest, so they had nothing to fear.
If anyone dares to smear them, so be it. Let them come if they're not afraid of death. Even if she dies, she'll take their whole family with her. If given a better chance, she might even kindly drag their entire extended family into it.
Looking at her fair and tender granddaughter, the old lady was reminded of the grievances her beloved granddaughter had suffered in Shanghai, and wished she could send someone to the frontier farm to "take care" of her.
Bai Nuo raised an eyebrow, looking curiously at the kind-faced old lady in front of him.
That's... interesting.
Standing next to her mother-in-law, Madam Xu Xiang of the Zhu family suddenly remembered something. Her eyes flickered slightly when she heard this.
At the beginning of last year, her mother-in-law secretly called her out of her room one night and asked her for advice. She said she wanted to deal with a family in Jiangsu Province, but no one else in the family could know.
The requirement is not to kill them, but to make that family suffer terribly, to the point of wishing they were dead, and to ensure they never have a chance to turn their lives around.
Xu Xiang was only slightly surprised at the time, but she didn't ask any more questions, and she had no intention of telling her father-in-law or husband.
Her family background was average, and the reason she was chosen by the Zhu family was because she was smart, upright, and an outstanding graduate of a prestigious university.
It should be noted that since they were young, Mr. and Mrs. Zhu have always had a soft spot for people who are cultured and have good morals.
So, he took a liking to Xu Xiang at first sight. She was a smart, polite, shrewd, and kind-hearted girl.
Xu Xiang never denies her ambition, but she is also more pragmatic and knows how to be grateful.
From the day she married into the Zhu family, she knew very well who the real boss was. So she wouldn't say anything to her mother-in-law, even if her father-in-law threatened her, let alone her husband, who had even less status in the family.
At the time, Xu Xiang only briefly learned about the family's situation before offering the best solution. She didn't ask about the final outcome, but she probably knew that anyone resented by her mother-in-law would never have a good life; simply living was the greatest punishment.
In families like theirs, there are never any truly soft-hearted people; as long as they can distinguish between those close to them and those distant from them, that's enough.
Xu Xiang's suggestion pleased Old Madam Zhu greatly. It was no wonder that she had specifically sought advice from her good friends Wei Xianhong and Liu Shengnan (Fang Meng's maternal grandmother) to choose a wife for her eldest son.
A few days later, after confirming that her granddaughter had gone to the countryside, Madam Zhu arranged for people to start making the arrangements.
This female bandit, who once led a band of brothers and dominated the battlefield in her youth, later even took up arms and led her men to fight the Japanese invaders. Even in her old age, this same lady, though becoming increasingly composed and gentle, never lost the ruthlessness within her.
Every single member of the Lu family still alive has been secretly framed with a host of vile crimes.
Some of it is true and some is false, but so what?
Those who truly hold power and remain firmly in their positions will never care whether you are genuinely innocent or not.
The old lady didn't even allow the family a chance to support each other when they were sent to the same farm. Instead, she separated them and sent them to the worst environments and the most chaotic and brutal places where the labor camp inmates were.
