435: This friendship is now being carried on by the next generation.

Xiao Niannian didn't know Meng Ning's specific family background before, but no matter what it was, Meng Ning was her good friend, good classmate, and future Comrade-in-arms. The rest didn't matter.

Later, Aunt Gu told her some things about the families in Capital City, and Xiao Niannian understood the various families and factions in Capital City more clearly.

Grandparents and her father had told her these things before, but Aunt Gu explained it in more detail.

"Niannian is my Niece."

Aunt Gu knew Meng Nings Mother was a smart person, but she still explained.

"I understand."

Meng Ning was a little confused, but her mother and Aunt Gu knew each other. She had only seen Gu Yuan and Gu Jin when she was little and didn't have much impression of Aunt Gu.

"I didn't expect such a coincidence."

Mr. Meng was also a smart man. This time, he was also worried about his daughter, so he specifically came with his wife to send their daughter to school.

He didn't expect that Niannian, who his daughter had always talked about, was actually Chief Gu's biological daughter.

He looked at Niannian with a smile. He had heard about this child's excellence hundreds of times from his daughter in the past two months. It was clear that his daughter and Niannian had a very good friendship, which was wonderful.

The Meng Family was much inferior to the Gu Family, but he and Chief Gu had known each other since they were young, and their relationship was also good. This friendship now continued in the next generation.

"Uncle Meng, Aunt Meng."

Gu Yuan also recognized Mr. Meng.

"Hello, Xiao Yuan."

Xiao Niannian looked at Mr. Meng. She knew that Mr. Meng was now a Division Commander, and the Meng Family and Gu Family had a good relationship.

For a time, the dormitory was extremely lively.

Meanwhile, in the adjacent dormitory, Xiao Yus Mother said with some displeasure, hearing the noise from their side.

"They're so ill-mannered, what are they arguing about here?"

Yang Mei's Mother immediately echoed.

"That's just how hicks are."

Zhou Yun, upon hearing this, thought of what her daughter had said, opened her mouth, but still didn't speak.

"Mom, Meng Ning's grandfather next door has stars on his shoulders..."

What?

Hearing this, Xiao Yus Mother's eyes widened.

Meng Ning's grandfather is that powerful?

Xiao Yus Father was also surprised after hearing this. Meng Family's grandfather has stars on his shoulders? His status must be extremely high. There aren't many people with the surname Meng, and he thought of someone he had heard of before.

"Her parents are also in the Military Unit?"

Xiao Yus Mother asked.

Xiao Yu nodded.

Xiao Yu's Parents exchanged glances, both understanding each other's meaning.

Xiao Yu's Parents walked towards the door, and upon reaching the adjacent dormitory's entrance, they saw many people standing inside, some sitting on the beds, all smiling and talking.

Xiao Yus Mother frowned. How could Meng Ning's parents have such a good relationship with hicks like Xiao Niannian and the others?

She heard Lin Shi's family was decent, and Gao Yao's family was also from the countryside.

"Hello, I'm Xiao Yus Mother, you must be Meng Nings Mother..."

Meng Nings Mother was happily chatting with Aunt Gu and Grandma Xiao when she heard someone speaking loudly. She saw Xiao Yus Mother rush over and push Aunt Gu aside, looking at Xiao Yus Mother in surprise.

Xiao Niannian supported Aunt Gu and looked at Xiao Yus Mother.

"Excuse me, please leave." Meng Nings Mother said.

Xiao Yus Mother didn't expect that Meng Nings Mother, upon hearing her words, didn't exchange pleasantries but instead directly ordered her to leave. Why?

Although their Xiao Family was not as good as the Meng Family, it was still quite good.

"Meng Nings Mother, is there some misunderstanding between us? Or has someone spoken ill of us in front of you?"

As she said this, Xiao Yus Mother looked unpleasantly at Xiao Niannian, Grandma Xiao, and Aunt Gu.

Xiao Niannian laughed when she heard her words.

"No misunderstanding, we don't know you, and we don't want to know you..."

Xiao Yus Mother felt her face burning upon hearing this. She became even more convinced that Xiao Niannian and her family had spoken ill of their family to Meng Nings Mother; otherwise, why would she be so targeted the moment she spoke?

"Meng Nings Mother, there must be some misunderstanding, I apologize first. My family is also from the Capital City, I married into this side..."

"I'm not interested in what you have to say, please leave."

Meng Nings Mother had been extremely friendly to the parents and children of the other families just now, but that didn't mean she was easy to bully; her aura was also very strong.

She herself was also a descendant of a Soldier, and her family background was similar to the Meng Family's.

Xiao Yus Mother was furious, but in front of Meng Nings Mother, she could only walk out with a cold face.

Xiao Yus Father stood at the doorway, looking at Mr. Meng, who was wearing a military uniform not far away.

"comrade Meng, I am Xiao Yus Father, currently the... provincial... regiment's Regimental Commander..."

Mr. Meng looked at Xiao Yus Father and said.

"Hello."

He had heard his daughter talk about Xiao Yu's affairs at school. His wife could speak like that, but given his current status, he couldn't. Unless Xiao Yus Father and them went too far.

"I heard you are also in the Military Unit. Old Meng is someone I respect..."

Hearing this, Mr. Meng frowned.

His father usually disliked flattery, and he and Xiao Yus Father were meeting for the first time, yet he was saying such things.

"I have other matters, please excuse me."

Xiao Yus Father's eyes widened.

His gaze went to a person in a military uniform not far away, who was looking at him with a serious expression.

Although he wasn't wearing military ranks now, and he didn't know Mr. Meng's rank, seeing a Guard, he definitely wasn't mistaken; this was a Guard, so Mr. Meng was at least a Deputy Division level, or a Division Commander.

If he could befriend comrade Meng, it would be extremely beneficial to him. After all, reaching comrade Meng's position would surely mean many comrades-in-arms, lifelong brothers, and some resources from the Meng Family... But now, Mr. Meng's attitude towards him was so cold, even somewhat displeased, making him feel anxious.

"Okay, you take care."

He had to ask carefully to see what had happened.

Xiao Yus Mother was about to come over and complain.

"Husband."

"Shut up, come downstairs with me first."

Xiao Yus Father warned.

Xiao Niannian saw all the words and reactions of these people, and she clearly understood the intentions of Xiao Yu's parents.

Uncle Meng and Aunt Meng's reactions were within her expectations.

"Are all your things packed? Our family is treating today, let's go to the State-run Restaurant for dinner..."

Mr. Meng said with a smile.

"Come to our house for dinner, it's not far from home..." Grandma Xiao thought that since the parents of these children rarely came, she should also fulfill her duties as a host.

"Aunt Xiao, let us treat this time, and next time you can treat, okay?" Meng Nings Mother said with a smile.

Meng Nings Mother knew Grandma Xiao was a good cook; her daughter had praised her several times. With so many of them, if they went to the Xiao Family's house, even if they helped with cooking, it would be too much of a bother.

"That's right, Aunt Xiao, we should be treating you..."

Everyone laughed and tried to persuade her.
