Reborn in the 70s: Pampered by Regiment Commander-Chapter 1217 - 804: The Decision (2)

Looking at his daughter’s face full of self-righteousness and pride, Ye Zhonghe could hardly believe his eyes and ears. Is this really his daughter?

Who does she take after? Whether it’s the Ye Family or the Qiang Family, it doesn’t seem like there are such shameless people, right? How can she call all her destruction help, and speak so confidently?

No wonder his father just asked his wife, if someone dealt with her like that, how would she feel?

Ye Zhonghe turned his gaze to his wife, his eyes filled with disappointment. He had always trusted her, believing that with her guidance and companionship, their daughter would get better and better. But he never thought that her guidance and companionship would be like this.

He wasn’t home when the matter with the elder daughter happened earlier. By the time he wanted to make amends, the elder daughter’s heart was already hurt, and Tongtong’s timid look at him also pained his heart.

Now, the elder daughter had already separated from her husband and moved out of his family, yet she refused to come back home no matter what. He really couldn’t understand his wife’s thinking. They are both daughters, so why is there such a big difference in her treatment of them?

Of course, his wife had her reasons, saying she didn’t want the elder daughter to divorce, so she forced her to go back. But for such a family where the husband’s side does not value her, can she really be happy staying there and not divorcing?

Ye Zhonghe knelt before Old Master Ye with a "thump": "Dad, it’s because I’m such an unqualified husband and father that they made so many mistakes. Please punish me."

"Is it useful to punish you?" Old Master Ye sighed quietly, "If punishing you was useful, I would have done it long ago. Now you know everything about the situation, is there anything else to say?"

"No, I have no objections to whatever Dad decides to do."

"Good." Old Master Ye nodded, "Tomorrow, send Meiru to the Xiangxi Fifth Team. You and Yuxian also move out..." He looked at Grandma Ye, "If you can’t accept my decision, you can move out together."

"Grandpa!"

"Dad!"

"Old man!"

Ye Meiru, Qiang Yuxian, and Grandma Ye almost spoke up at the same time, all with faces full of disbelief. They never expected that Old Master’s decision would be like this.

Old Master Ye continued to speak on his own: "Zhongliang is about to be transferred back soon, let their family come live here. Zhonghe, you have no objections, right?"

"No." Ye Zhonghe nodded repeatedly, "I listen to Dad, and I also think Zhongliang is more suitable than me to be the head of the Ye Family. His thinking is much more thorough than mine. Under his leadership, the Ye Family will get better and better."

"I had this idea the last time something happened with Meiru, and I have also talked with Zhongliang. He understood my meaning and explicitly told me that a child’s mistake shouldn’t be blamed on the parents.

I didn’t insist because I thought that although you are not strict enough with your wife and daughter, you are sincere and steady. With age, you would become more comprehensive in considering things.

But in fact, over the years, you have not grown as I imagined. On the contrary, Zhongliang and Zhongjun have been gradually surpassing you in all aspects. Things have developed to this point, and I can only do this.

Rest assured, the two brothers will never disrespect you as the elder brother just because of my decision. In the future, you should still come home whenever you should, but you will not be the one to make the major decisions."

Ye Zhonghe had no objections to everything his father said, and he also clearly knew that his father was speaking the truth. In fact, he had always had this thought in his heart, but you know, people all care about face. Every time he was about to say it, he swallowed his words, just wanting to give himself another chance to try again.

Now that his father finally said it, he actually felt relieved.

He loved the army and just hoped to be a real soldier. As for other things, he really wasn’t very interested. In the past, forcing himself to learn was really too exhausting.

The father and son discussed and settled it, but the three generations could still not accept this fact.

Although Grandma Ye anticipated that Old Master Ye would not easily forgive the granddaughter this time, she absolutely could not accept sending her to the Xiangxi Fifth Team right after she got burned.

Qiang Yuxian had the same thought as Grandma Ye. If she had known the result would be like this, she would never have helped her daughter, even if it meant letting her live muddily. She couldn’t send her to her death!

Ye Meiru herself was even less able to accept it. Her ploy of injury, how could it have no effect at all? Besides, she originally thought that even if her grandfather was mad at her, at most he would send her abroad and just ignore her.

If she had known her grandfather intended this, why would she have injured herself like this?

Given her current condition, if she were sent to the Xiangxi Fifth Team, there’s absolutely no way she would come out alive!

...

"What kind of place is the Xiangxi Fifth Team?" Chuxia was bewildered when she received a call from Zhou Mikang. From what Zhou Mikang meant, the punishment seemed quite severe, but it sounded to her like just transferring to another unit to start anew.

"Going to the Xiangxi Fifth Team is equivalent to a death sentence. Do you understand now?"

"Ah?" Chuxia sat up from the bed in shock, "Do you mean it’s the name of a prison?"

"No, it’s a team established specifically for the cast-off members of various families, living in the primeval forest where they have to solve all their living needs by themselves. Escaping is met with layer upon layer of defense. Of course, if someone can persist for a year, they might appear before the world again. But do you think Ye Meiru has that capability?"
