489: This knot in my heart has been untied.

She came with these letters and proofs, absolutely certain that after her Adoptive Mother saw them, she would believe Grandma and let her Older Brothers contact Grandma.

This matter was also a knot in her Adoptive Mother's heart. Once it was untangled, her Adoptive Mother could live happily from then on.

However, judging by the appearance of Eldest Brother and Second Brother, it seemed her Adoptive Mother and her Maternal Grandparents here hadn't told them about these matters.

After half an hour on the phone, Mother Xiao reluctantly hung up.

She looked at Xiao Niannian, seeing Xiao Niannian smiling at her.

She stood up and walked towards Xiao Niannian.

"Niannian, Mother is sorry for you and Grandma. If I had met your Grandma back then, I wouldn't have misunderstood for so many years..."

"Mother, it's not your fault. It's Xiao Dong and Spouse who are heartless..."

Hearing Niannian mention Xiao Dong and Spouse, Mother Xiao's eyes were filled with hatred.

"Sending them to the farm was too lenient." Her gaze returned to Niannian, and she said, "They were so vicious, did they do many other bad things afterward?"

Xiao Niannian nodded.

Mother Xiao's hatred grew deeper.

She couldn't imagine how her mother-in-law and Niannian, an old woman and a newborn baby, could have survived without any source of income.

As Mother Xiao thought of this, she started crying again.

"Mom, don't cry. Everything is in the past... Grandma and I are doing very well now, and I've also found my biological father..."

Hearing this, Grandma Xiao stopped crying and looked at Niannian excitedly.

"You found your biological father?"

"Yes, he's Father's Comrade-in-arms, and he's in the Capital City now. Grandma is living in their home there..."

Xiao Niannian didn't say her biological father was a military commander, only that he was her Adoptive Father's Comrade-in-arms.

"That's wonderful, truly wonderful."

Mother Xiao looked at Niannian excitedly.

She had originally thought about helping Niannian find her biological parents in the future, but she hadn't expected Niannian to have already found her biological father.

Niannian's biological parents' family is from the Capital City, and he's her husband's Comrade-in-arms. That's truly wonderful.

"Niannian, Mother's attitude towards you was not good when I first saw you. Please don't blame Mother..."

Mother Xiao still apologized; she had been too angry earlier.

"Mother, I don't blame you. You've suffered so much, raising my Older Brothers and enduring hardship for so many years..."

Hearing her daughter's words, Mother Xiao embraced Xiao Niannian.

"This is truly wonderful. Mother never imagined having such a good daughter like you."

Mother Xiao looked at Xiao Niannian, thinking about what gifts to give her daughter. All the jewelry passed down from her parents, she would give to her daughter, and she would also buy more clothes, delicious food, and useful items... "Tell Mother, how did you and Grandma manage all these years?"

Mother Xiao asked Xiao Niannian.

"At first, Grandma, Xiao Dong, and their family lived with me in the building Father and you built, but after a few months, Xiao Dong and his family took over the building..."

Xiao Niannian quickly recounted the past.

"The couple wanted to seize the marriage opportunity and sell me to Wang Dazhuang. Grandma and I went to Yangcheng City Name, I enlisted in the Military Unit, and Grandma settled in the Family Courtyard..."

Listening to these words, Mother Xiao, Xiao Hongjun, and Xiao Weijun were heartbroken.

"These beasts, they are truly vicious! They deserve to die..."

"Bastards..."

"They don't deserve to be human."

Mother Xiao held Xiao Niannian, feeling even more saddened. She hadn't expected things to turn out this way because of a misunderstanding. For more than twenty years, she had hated the wrong people. If only she had confirmed it, she would have known the truth by meeting her mother-in-law. But at the time, she was deceived by Xiao Dong and thought that her usually kind mother-in-law was also a hypocrite... "Niannian, you and Grandma have suffered..."

Being a soldier was so hard. If she had been home, with Hongjun and Weijun around, Xiao Dong and his family wouldn't have dared to do such vicious things... Although Niannian spoke lightly, she had also been a soldier and knew how much effort it took to get promoted from a new recruit.

"Mom, Eldest Brother, Second Brother, I have already graduated from the Military Academy in Xiangcheng City Name..."

What?

Mother Xiao, Xiao Hongjun, and Xiao Weijun were all extremely surprised when they heard this.

"You only enlisted less than two years ago, how did you graduate already?"

Mother Xiao said, full of pleasant surprise.

"Niannian, you graduated early?"

Xiao Hongjun and Xiao Weijun also looked at their sister in astonishment.

Their sister actually graduated from the Military Academy two years early? That was too outstanding. When they were at the Military Academy, they could get first place, but graduating two years early, how excellent must that be?

"Graduated two years early? Sister, you are truly too outstanding."

"Oh my goodness, Sister, you are so outstanding?"

Mother Xiao, Xiao Hongjun, and Xiao Weijun now looked at Xiao Niannian not only with joy but also with admiration... "I learned some things from the old soldiers in the village when I was little."

Xiao Niannian replied modestly.

Hearing this, Xiao Hongjun spoke up.

"Sister, Eldest Brother and Second Brother also learned these things from many elders since childhood, but we are not as outstanding as you..."

"That's right, when we were little, we would wake up to the reveille and go to the training ground to train, but none of us were as outstanding as you, Sister!"

Their sister had covered the ground of four or five years in just two.

Mother Xiao looked at Niannian, feeling even more heartache.

How much effort must this child have put in to reach this point today?

"Mother, Grandma said she will be taking the train tomorrow."

Hearing this, Mother Xiao looked at her two sons.

"Niannian, let your Eldest Brother and Second Brother go pick up your Grandma."

Her mother-in-law was at this age now; she wasn't comfortable with her traveling alone.

"Mother will also go to the Capital City to pick up your Grandma."

Hearing this, Xiao Niannian said.

"Mother, Grandma is coming from the Capital City with someone accompanying her. You and Eldest Brother and Second Brother can pick her up at the train station..."

Grandparents had discussed with her and Grandma before that if they found Mother and Older Brothers in Rongcheng Chengdu, they would find someone to send Grandma over.

If it weren't for her working at the Arms Factory these past few days, she could have accompanied Mother and Older Brothers back to the Capital City herself.

Xiao Niannian persuaded them for a while before Mother Xiao and her Older Brothers gave up the idea.

"Alright, we'll listen to you, Niannian."

"These next few days, Niannian, you'll live at home. There are four rooms at home. Today you'll stay in Mother's room, and tomorrow Mother will go to the department store to set up a room for you. From now on, this room will belong only to you, Niannian..."

When Mother Xiao was in the Yangcheng Troops Family Courtyard, she had told her husband many times that she wanted a daughter, and she had even fantasized about how well they would treat their daughter if they had one... Unfortunately, they hadn't been able to have a daughter!

But now, they had a daughter! Their wish had come true!

Xiao Zhan, how wonderful it would be if you were still alive.
