Chapter 253: Grandfather has disliked him, so he is not allowed to dislike his daughter!

~8 min read 1,472 words

Regarding Section Commander Duan calling himself grandfather, the young couple had no opinion.

Old Master Lu also had no opinion. Each calls their own, it's just a title.

For the grandson-in-law, Section Commander Duan was an existence like a reborn parent.

So a "grandfather" was what the two great-grandchildren should call him.

As long as the children had more backers and more people who loved them, what did it matter if the title was a generation off?

Old Master Pei came with chicken soup at four o'clock in the afternoon. Not only did he come, but Old Master Li and other old masters also set out.

If it were someone else, the nurse wouldn't dare let so many people into the ward to visit the parturient.

But these old people obviously had an extraordinary bearing, so how could they dare to stop them.

After Old Master Pei put down the chicken soup, seeing that his apprentice was still awake and her face was rosy, not like the weak and pale face of his own granddaughter after giving birth, he couldn't help but worry, stepped forward, and indicated that he wanted to take her pulse.

"Okay, thank you, Master."

Shen Man cooperated and stretched out her hand. Master was concerned about her, so how could she refuse?

Everyone else in the ward held their breath, fearing to disturb Old Master Pei's pulse-taking.

Old Master Pei's pulse-taking was a must, and the Pei family's medical skills had been passed down through more than a dozen generations.

As he felt it, his worried mood was swept away.

It was fine, a false alarm.

The apprentice's body was very good, only some postpartum depletion, just nourish it.

There wasn't a single bit of hidden illness in other aspects!

"How is it, Old Pei, how is my Manman's body?"

Old Master Lu had enough of the great-granddaughter, and didn't forget to care about his own granddaughter.

"Blood depletion, just eat more nourishing food, don't see the wind, and sit through the full month of the postpartum month."

Old Master Pei shook his head, indicating there was no problem.

Next was the postpartum month, not to be cold, not to touch cold water, if she recuperated well, there would definitely be no problem!

The man who was studying how to make milk powder pricked up his ears and listened for a long time. After confirming there was no problem, he continued to shake the milk bottle.

This thing was hard to come by; it was Section Commander Duan who entrusted someone to exchange for foreign exchange coupons and bought it in a foreign trade store. It was hard to come by.

The milk powder melted quickly after shaking. He dripped a drop on the back of his hand, felt it wasn't hot or cold, and after the temperature was moderate, he started feeding his daughter.

Similarly, he handed the bottle of milk for his son to Section Commander Duan, who was obsessed with his son.

He understood the love for the next generation, so could the other party understand him being a hands-off manager?

"Little Tianqi, little Mantou, come, come, come, grandfather will feed you milk."

Section Commander Duan's eyes were soft. From the beginning of the non-standard holding posture, to now, the movements were very standard.

He didn't stay in the bedroom, but held the little grandson to the main room, closed one of the main doors, and hid behind the door to feed the little guy milk.

In the courtyard, the communications soldier was boiling hot water and watching the stove.

Hearing the movement, he couldn't help but peek and show a gratified smile.

He knew that the old leader had been looking forward to this day for many years.

At this time, Lu Xiu Bai held his

As it turned out, for some reason, the daughter suddenly started wailing in his arms—

"Waa waa waa!"

"Did you feed Lian Lian?"

Old Master Lu hit the nail on the head, glaring at his grandson with annoyance.

"I did, she already had milk in my wife's arms."

Lu Xiu Bai was completely confused; he was certain his daughter had already eaten.

"Waa waa waa!"

Section Commander Duan gently patted Xiao Mantou's back to prevent the little one from choking on milk.

After hearing the conversation between the grandfather and grandson in the courtyard, he asked appropriately:

"Did she pee? Did she poop?"

"That makes sense, go take a look."

Old Master Lu signaled for his grandson to bend over, telling him not to stand so straight.

When people get old, their backs hunch, and their overall height becomes much shorter than when they were young.

Of course, he didn't think it was his own problem; it was all because his grandson lacked awareness.

"Oh, okay."

Lu Xiu Bai felt aggrieved, but he obediently bent over and opened his daughter's diaper...

"Pfft, pfft, pfft."

The stinky poop, although not as green or as smelly as the first meconium, still had a rather pungent odor.

"Give the child to me, you go back and get a diaper."

Old Master Lu didn't mind at all, taking his precious great-granddaughter into his arms.

"Alright."

Lu Xiu Bai nodded; since Grandfather had already shown disgust toward him, he wasn't allowed to show disgust toward his daughter!

"Waa waa waa."

"I know, I know, I'll make you some milk powder to drink in a moment."

"Waa waa waa."

"This is your younger brother, and there's your younger sister inside the room; in the future, the three of you siblings must help each other..."

Section Commander Duan looked up and joked with a smile:

"Old Brother Lu, Lian Lian is still small; isn't it too early to be educating her now?"

"Not early, not early at all; children must be nurtured from a young age.

Once the children reach their first month, we'll take them to the training grounds to look around, let them see the soldiers training more, and get them familiar with our bugle calls..."

Old Master Lu's attitude was very clear: regarding his grandchildren, whether they were great-granddaughters or great-grandsons, if they could be cultivated from a young age and were willing to join the military when they grew up, he would support them all!

"That's right, if the youth are strong, the country will be strong.

What you say makes sense; let's start from the children..."

Section Commander Duan took these words to heart, but he wasn't just thinking about his own grandchildren; he was thinking that all the children in the Military Region Jiashuyuan, and all the children on the Sea Island, needed to be nurtured from a young age!

As for how to do it, he would leave it to the think tank led by Political Commissar Ji to figure out.

Regarding funding, ever since they reported the abundant resources and produce of the Sea Island to the central government not long ago, the central government had approved the Sea Island as a Special Economic Development Zone, allowing for priority governance and trial operations...

Not to mention the fruits and seafood, just the betel nut alone, if exported, could bring qualitative changes to the national treasury and the economy of the Sea Island!

That stuff isn't good if eaten too much; our own people certainly won't eat it, so we'll just export it to foreigners and let the foreign devils eat it!

Although Han Zhengqing was a man of few words, his character was impeccable.

Once he retired in the next two years, he would hand over his authority to him, and by then, he would just spend his retirement at the Sea Island's veteran rest home, living out his days with Old Brother Lu and the others.

Fishing at sunrise, returning at sunset, and taking the kids out for walks from time to time—just thinking about that life gave him something to look forward to.

Should he retire early?

This thought had just crossed his mind when, upon seeing Jiang Ye, he dismissed it again.

Han Zhengqing was a neutral party with no particular bias toward anyone.

He would have to observe him a bit more before he could entrust Jiang Ye's future to him.

"Knock, knock, knock."

"Brother Li."

"Wang Donghe, what brings you here?"

After the communications officer opened the door and discovered it was Regiment Commander Han's communications officer, he was immediately surprised.

"Yes, Regiment Commander Han sent me to deliver some things to Comrade Shen Man, to congratulate Comrade Shen Man on her successful delivery."

Wang Donghe first saluted, then pointed to the two lively old hens he was carrying, as well as a sack of items.

To tell the truth, he was also confused.

But he couldn't ask why when it came to his leader's orders; he just had to execute them!
