Chapter 470 Zhu Guo: You two... have gone too far!

Now that she has her granddaughter, Madam Zhu is content with everything and has no time to worry about whether her youngest son is being wronged.

And he calls himself a leader!

In this family, which son would dare to act like a leader in front of her? It's only because her father-in-law passed away early that this brat dares to act like a grandson instead of a son!

In the end, the pile of New Year's goods that Bai Nuo and his group brought back was carried into the house by Commander Zhu with his two soldiers, who were quite tired.

Xiao Li and Xiao Wang dared not object. The old lady had given the order herself, so even though they felt sorry for their leader, they dared not say anything like, "Go and rest, and we'll move it ourselves."

As soon as Bai Nuo and Fang Meng entered the house, the old lady pulled them onto the sofa, one in each hand, and showered them with affection. The smile on the old lady's face never disappeared.

Around 5 p.m., the other men in the Zhu family also returned one after another, including the two cousins ​​who had stayed in Beijing.

The Zhu family had five sons and eight grandsons, making them a large and prosperous family.

Currently, those remaining in Beijing, besides the youngest son Zhu Kaixuan and his family, include the eldest son Zhu Kaige, who serves as the deputy commander of the Army General Headquarters, and the second son Zhu Kaize, who serves as the head of the Kyoto Garrison.

It's no wonder that so many people envy the Zhu family, a family that came from humble rural backgrounds, yet none of them dare to openly provoke them.

Leaving aside Old Master Zhu's status in the military, none of his sons are simple. Despite having had little formal education, they are all incredibly capable. They may appear fierce and reckless, but they are all cunning and shrewd. Among them, the most feared is the ruthless and cunning second son, Zhu Kaize.

The five sons of the Zhu family each have distinct personalities.

The eldest son was raised from a young age to be the future head of the family. He is upright and dignified, and is the biggest support for his younger brothers, always keeping a firm grasp on the direction and overall situation of the family.

The youngest, Zhu Kaixuan, is a born soldier king. He has a fiery temper and is stubborn. He will fight at the slightest disagreement. He believes in the principle of "If you can't kill me, I'll kill you; if you can kill me, I'll take you down with me." But if you think he is just a reckless and impulsive general, you are sorely mistaken. He might not even know how he died in the end.

As for Zhu Lao Er, he has been a black-hearted man since childhood. He appears to be handsome and refined. Although he is a military general, he prefers to pretend to be a refined civil official to make everyone lower their guard, and then unexpectedly deliver a fatal blow to the other party.

He went to the battlefield with his father and brothers when he was a teenager, and after coming down from the battlefield, he used his own abilities to gradually rise to the position of the head of the garrison.

That was the Kyoto Garrison, equivalent to the Imperial Guards of ancient times, responsible for the defense of the capital, holding a special position and having a crucial function.

Although the other two sons were released by Grandpa Zhu to the south and the north respectively, they gradually rose to high-ranking positions in their respective military regions, holding significant influence.

Thus, the Zhu family rose to prominence after its five sons became successful. Those who were secretly envious could only pin their hopes on the grandchildren, wishing that the family would produce a few spoiled brats who would ruin the honor of the older generation, and at the same time, give them the opportunity to trample the Zhu family underfoot and rise to power.

And what was the result?

The eight grandsons, from the eldest to the fifth, were stationed in various places, where they worked hard and made continuous military achievements.

Lao Qi entered the public security system and, without relying on anyone, became the head of the criminal investigation team of the Liaoning Provincial Public Security Bureau at a young age. He was just transferred back to Beijing before the new year to serve as the head of the criminal investigation section of the Public Security Bureau.

The sixth brother is a battalion commander in the field army stationed in Zhuangshi, Beijing. He is about to be promoted to deputy regimental commander. Like his brothers who are also in the military headquarters, he is an outstanding officer who is being cultivated by their military region.

That leaves Zhu Xiaoba, the one who's obsessed with "leeching off his brother." While others graduate smoothly after two years of high school, Zhu Xiaoba has been studying for three years and still hasn't graduated. He just spends all his time laughing like an idiot. But if you say he's naive, nobody would believe it. It's not that no political enemies sent people to lure him down the wrong path in order to tarnish the Zhu family's reputation.

Unfortunately, the men they sent had barely become sworn brothers with Zhu Xiaoba when they were inexplicably sacked and left either crippled or mentally impaired. No evidence could be found. When they asked Zhu Xiaoba, he was more shocked and aggrieved than anyone else, and kept shouting that he wanted to avenge his brother.

Now the Zhu family has finally recognized an even younger grandchild, a little girl that many families look down on. Some people thought their chance had come, but after investigating...

Never mind!

This guy has many powerful backers, and his childhood sweetheart is that rebellious son of the Fang family who dares to talk back even to his own father. He's someone you can't afford to mess with!

Right now, the Zhu family's living room was bustling with activity, even a bit noisy, making the old man's head buzz.

Moreover, the old man couldn't even get his precious granddaughter, which made him feel extremely wronged!

The key point is that with his wife sitting next to him, Commander Zhu didn't dare to utter a single word. In the end, he could only timidly slip into the kitchen to supervise his three sons cooking.

That's right, the people busy preparing dinner in the kitchen right now are Deputy Commander Zhu, Minister Zhu, and Army Commander Zhu, who just got off work. Oh, and Commander Zhu, who just slipped in.

Despite the fact that these men surnamed Zhu hold high positions in their respective workplaces, their status at home is surprisingly consistent.

To welcome the little princess of the Zhu family home, the snacks and treats were made by the daughters-in-law who rushed back to spend the New Year with the elders, but the main meals were not their responsibility.

Right now, they were all in the living room chatting with Madam Zhu, the young girl, and the future grandson-in-law who was sitting a little nervously.

Zhu Bao, the seventh child of the Zhu family, came in from the backyard carrying a large, freshly prepared carp. She glanced at Fang Meng expressionlessly, feeling incredibly resentful.

As fellow members of the Zhu family, the boy could usually sit quietly, but when he passed by, his own mother wouldn't even glance at him. Instead, she was enthusiastically peeling tangerines for the boy surnamed Fang, smiling as if she had seen her long-lost son.
