"Let's go downstairs and wish grandpa and dad a happy new year." Su Ti took out the clothes he had prepared yesterday.

There was a sewing machine at home, so she made new clothes for her father and grandfather, and won praise from the whole family.

Of course, she and Baichuan also had theirs. Su Ti made a red cotton-padded jacket to suit the occasion, and Li Baichuan decorated it with a red scarf.

They both stood in front of the mirror and smiled.

"Happy New Year, Grandpa."

"Happy New Year, Dad."

The two of them congratulated in unison, and with their festive attire, both Marshal Li and Qi Feng looked over.

"Happy New Year, Happy New Year." Marshal Li couldn't stop smiling and happily took out the red envelope he had prepared long ago from his pocket.

"Here, red envelopes, one for Su Yatou and one for Baichuan." Originally, the red envelopes should have been given on the night of the 30th.

But there have been no children in the family for many years, and Marshal Li has forgotten about this matter. As for Qi Bowen in the past, he simply ignored him.

Marshal Li himself didn't realize that he rarely thought of Qi Bowen and Li Ci now.

It was not until he saw Qi Feng wrapping red paper below that he remembered it, but at that time he thought the two children should be asleep, so he did not call anyone to wake them up.

"This is from Dad. I wish you all the best in the new year." Qi Feng also happily gave the New Year's money and looked at the two people with happiness on their faces.

"Thank you, Grandpa and Dad." Su Ti happily took the red envelope. His money-loving look made the men in the family laugh.

"Wife, I'll give you mine too." Li Baichuan just wanted to make his wife happier.

He handed all his money over to his wife, otherwise he would have given her a red envelope.

"No, that's given to you by your grandpa and dad." Su Ti felt that the meaning of the red envelope was different.

She used to think it was superstitious, but now that she has the chance to start over, she firmly believes that some things do make sense.

Li Baichuan didn't force his wife to accept the money because he had to spend it anyway, so in the end it was just giving it to his wife.

Marshal Li and Qi Feng watched the two kids discussing red envelopes, and only then did they notice a bit of their childishness.

Looking at Suti's belly again, he knew that he would have to pay an extra portion next year. Thinking of this, why were they so happy?

After the family finished their meal, phone calls came in one after another, and people came to the house from time to time.

But the people who came were obviously of lower status than their family. No matter what they thought behind their backs, at least they were polite to each other on the surface.

"Ding-ling-ling..." Another ring rang, and the old marshal picked up the phone as usual.

He knew that the call today was either for him or for Qi Feng.

"Brother, Happy New Year." A strange female voice came when the phone was answered. Marshal Li listened carefully before realizing who this person was.

"Xiao Miao, Happy New Year!" For this only cousin, although there is a layer of relationship between them, she is indeed his only relative in the world.

Plus, she had helped him raise his child, so he was indebted to her.

"Happy New Year, Happy New Year." Li Miao was panicking now. Sichuan Province was so far away from Beijing, and he could not get many news in time.

It was only during this period that she heard the news, and at that time she just thought it was nonsense.

Her eldest brother only has this one daughter. Even if the grandson was taken away by mistake, the daughter couldn't be taken away by mistake as well, right?

Why would he cut off relations with his own daughter? She didn't take it seriously in the first place.

But when her husband inquired about it, he found out that it was true. Not only did his daughter disown him, she also drove him away along with the fake grandson.

Not only that, he was also stripped of his surname, and the reason seemed to be related to the newly adopted grandson.

She always knew that Li Ci was not mentally normal, but she didn't expect that she would rather have a fake than her own child.

She knew her elder brother, who would not tolerate any sand in his eyes. He would indulge Li Ci in other matters.

But when it comes to this bloodline issue, since it is the only bloodline, Li Ci will definitely not be allowed to do whatever he wants.

She thought back to the time some time ago when Qi Bowen ran away and Li Ci came to find him, and they treated him kindly. She was afraid that her elder brother would vent his anger on them.

She knew nothing. Li Miao looked at her man blinking hard, wanting her to explain clearly.

She opened her mouth and spoke with difficulty: "Brother, that... I just found out about Xiaoci. When she came to us, we really didn't know anything."

Li Miao knew that she must not play any tricks on her eldest brother, besides, her family still relied on him.

So she thought a lot and decided to tell the truth.

"I know, let it be the past." Marshal Li was in a trance when he heard her mention Xiaoci.

He had blamed this cousin before. Li Ci was raised by her, and the Zheng family also contributed to her awkward personality.

They were considerate of him and praised her, until the end they became so ignorant of the immensity of the world.

Of course, he bears the greatest responsibility. He has dedicated his entire life to the country and feels guilty towards every one of his children.

"Brother, then you..." Li Miao didn't know how to start. Would Li Ci really not ask any more questions?

And what about the grandson at home now? She wanted the Li family to fall more than anyone else.

If this person can't support the Li family in the future, their family will have no good days.

"By the way, my grandson is getting married after the New Year. The specific date has not been decided yet. I will notify you when it is confirmed."

Marshal Li knew what she wanted to ask. There were some things that didn't need to be told to outsiders.

"Married? Oh...oh, that's a good thing, we will definitely go." Li Miao was confused. Didn't they say that the child got married in the countryside?

What's going on now? Yes, given the status of the Li family, the one from the countryside would definitely not be up to par, so they found another one?

Li Miao had a lot of questions to ask, but she knew that her elder brother was not the kind of person with whom she could confide.

She wisely shut her mouth. She decided to go to Beijing to meet the person. Then she would know everything.

Li Miao spoke a few words to Zheng Kangye who was waiting anxiously on the side, and then hung up the phone after wishing a happy new year.

The two of them felt relieved that her eldest brother had no intention of taking his anger out on their family.

After Marshal Li hung up the phone, he began to feel unhappy.

He thought of Li Ci, wondering if she regretted it? She must be having a hard time now.

There is not much festive atmosphere during the New Year in Yangliu Brigade. The only thing every household looks forward to is eating dumplings during the New Year.

But the Wei family was the only one that was particularly lively during this year.

"You won't do it? If you don't do it, I'll report you to the police and have you arrested. Do you still think you're the daughter of some big shot?"

"You caused me to give birth prematurely. So, do you think I wronged you by asking you to take care of me during the confinement period?" Su Nianyou had a cruel look on his face.

Compared to her previous indifferent and superior attitude, she now looks at everyone as if someone has killed her entire family.
