Shen Bai and his wife took Shen Zhiwei and Xiao Zheng back to the courtyard house rented by their unit.

The jeep was parked near the gate.

When Xiao He got off the car, he helped carry a few bags of gifts from the Xiao family.

In addition, Shen Zhiwei and Xiao Zheng also carried dozens of things in their hands, which seemed to be full.

The neighbors were surprised to see them come back.

"Lao Shen, Lao Yang, is there a guest at your house?"

These neighbors are several other colleagues from the Foreign Affairs Department, and it is not yet their turn to arrange accommodation, so they all live here for the time being.

Yang Qilue said proudly, "It's not a guest, this is my daughter and future son-in-law."

"Ah, Lao Yang, Lao Shen, your daughters are already this old!"

"Your daughter is so beautiful!"

"The son-in-law is so handsome!"

"Lao Yang, your daughter looks familiar, as if she's seen her before."

Yang Qi smiled, "She went to the countryside in Rongsheng before. When she jumped into the queue as an educated youth, she killed a leopard on the mountain and saved people. It was published in Huaxia Daily some time ago."

"Ah, so the heroine who beat the leopard—Shen Zhiwei is your daughter!"

"Old Shen, Lao Yang, you are too low-key, you only speak out now."

Colleagues were astonished and gathered around to see the heroine.

Shen Bai said modestly, "There are many heroes who are better than her, and there is nothing to show off."

Colleagues continued to praise, "That's different. Ordinary people, who would dare to rob someone with a leopard, would be too late to run away. You girl is so courageous."

"Yes, if I saw a leopard, I would probably be paralyzed with fright."

Shen Zhiwei showed them openly, "Hello, uncles and aunts!"

Xiao Zheng also greeted them with a smile.

Talented and beautiful, with high spirits, Shen Bai and his wife's colleagues are full of admiration.

Yang Qi greeted warmly, "My future in-laws sent some pastries, everyone, come and have some tea."

"Okay, we are all happy with your family."

Colleagues were not polite either, happily following up with Shen's family.

Shen Bai and his wife live in a house of about [-] square meters. It is quite spacious for the two of them to live in the south of the courtyard.

The kitchen and washroom are outside and are shared, not as convenient as the small western-style building.

They separated the room with curtains, the bedroom inside and the living room outside, with an Eight Immortals table and a few stools, and the furnishings were simple.

After Shen Zhiwei put the things down, he subconsciously opened the curtain and took a look inside. There was only one bed, two old quilts, a desk, and two faded suitcases on the floor in the bedroom.

Xiao Zheng also saw it, and thought to himself, buy the house sooner, improve the living conditions of his father-in-law and mother-in-law sooner, and buy more furniture, clothes and quilts...

Shen Bai and his wife asked their colleagues to sit down, took a bowl and poured boiling water, soaked in brown sugar water, opened a few packets of pastries and melon seeds, and asked everyone to drink with tea.

Everyone drank tea and continued to inquire.

"Old Shen, your son-in-law is also from Beijing?"

Shen Bai nodded.

Everyone asked Xiao Zheng again, "Young man, which unit are you in?"

Xiao Zheng said with a gentle smile, "Weiwei and I have just returned to Beijing. We are currently studying at Tsinghua University and haven't gone to work yet."

"It's good to go to college. You are a college student of workers, peasants and soldiers. After a few years of graduation, you will be able to arrange jobs." Colleagues praised, "You will also be state officials in the future, Lao Shen and Lao Yang, and you will enjoy the blessings in the future."

Shen Bai and his wife said cheerfully, "Children and grandchildren have their own blessings, and we should do our job well."

A colleague came in from the outside and asked loudly, "Whose family owns the jeep parked outside? It's so impressive. Is it a visitor?"

Xiao Zheng went out and asked, "Is it blocking the way? Let's move a little."

"No...you are?" The man was a little puzzled when he saw Xiao Zheng coming out of Shen Bai's house.

Shen Bai walked out and said with a smile, "Old Liu, this is my future son-in-law. We went to his house in the morning and just sent us back."

"Everyone is drinking tea in my room, you should come over and have a bowl too."

"Hey, okay." Liu Tong also came to ask for some tea.

"Old Shen, your son-in-law is already equipped with a jeep at such a young age?"

Other colleagues were also curious when they heard it, aren't they still in college?There was a jeep.

This identity is a bit different.

He Dong answered for them, "This is our old chief's car."

Everyone was surprised, "Which chief?"

Not to mention raising your head, "Xiao Dayan, Old General Xiao."

Xiao Zheng smiled gently, "It's my grandfather."

"So it's General Xiao's grandson!"

Those colleagues who were drinking tea couldn't sit still anymore, they all got up and shook hands with Xiao Zheng, "Say hello to the old general for us."

"Okay." Xiao Zheng nodded, with a gentle and calm expression on his face.

"Old Shen, your daughter has good eyesight!"

Everyone is envious.

Yang Qi said implicitly, "We only found out who they were talking about later."

This means that the prominent status of the in-laws was only known later.

Shen Zhiwei knew that they had given their parents enough support today, and that their parents' work in the unit would be much smoother in the future.

After the colleagues inquired, they drank tea and went back to their respective rooms.

Shen Zhiwei urged Yang Qi after helping to wash the dishes, "Mom, let's go and see the house. We can see a few more houses while the weather is still there."

"Okay, okay, let's go."

Shen Bai and his wife took them out of the yard after a little tidying up.

Colleagues curiously asked after seeing it:

"Old Shen, your daughter and son-in-law are leaving now? Don't keep them for dinner?"

"Wei Wei, Auntie will be making dinner in a while, you can go back to school after you finish your meal." Someone warmly welcomed the guests.

Yang Qi said with a smile, "We won't cook at home anymore. We may go to a state-run restaurant to eat at night. The children want to buy a courtyard house. Let us help with reference."

It is said that colleagues are envious and don't want it.

Everyone has the money to buy a courtyard house!

When Shen Bai's family went out in a jeep, the colleagues discussed enthusiastically.

"Hey, Lao Shen and Lao Yang are lucky to come late, my daughter has found such a good marriage!"

"No, good days are yet to come."
