718: A stranger called Grandma Xiao.

"Grandma."

"Niannian."

Grandma Xiao saw her Granddaughter and ran over excitedly.

Xiao Niannian ran over and hugged Grandma Xiao.

"Why are you here?"

Xiao Niannian asked, confused.

"Grandma found out about your Eldest Brother's situation,"

Grandma Xiao said with a serious expression.

Who told Grandma about Eldest Brother's injury?

Fortunately, Eldest Brother was recovering well now; otherwise, if Grandma had heard, she surely would have fainted from worry.

"Grandma received a call the day before yesterday saying your Eldest Brother had been shot and was seriously injured..."

Xiao Niannian looked at Grandma in surprise.

"Was it a man or a woman who called you?"

"It was a middle-aged man. If I heard his voice again, I would definitely recognize it..."

Grandma Xiao had almost fainted on the spot back then.

Tenth Grandma and Uncle Xiao Shu were there at the time and supported Grandma Xiao.

"I called your Maternal Grandparents to ask about the situation..."

After hearing about these things, Uncle Xiao Shu immediately asked for leave, bought a ticket, and rushed over.

"Niannian, Uncle was there at the time, and that man seemed to be deliberately changing his voice..."

Hearing this, Xiao Niannian's expression became even more serious.

Who would call Grandma about such a thing?

Was this an attempt to scheme against Grandma, or was Eldest Brother's injury also a result of someone's scheme?

The Arms Factory and the Division Headquarters were both investigating, and Xiao Niannian had also asked about the situation, but no suspicious people had been found.

Now that Grandma had received a call, was it because those people no longer wanted to hide?

If that were really the case...

"Where is your Eldest Brother?"

Hearing Grandma's anxious voice, Xiao Niannian helped Grandma walk inside.

Mother Xiao and Xiao Weijun were also very surprised to see Grandma Xiao.

"Mom, why are you here?"

"Grandma."

Seeing her daughter-in-law's haggard appearance, Grandma Xiao hugged her eldest daughter-in-law with heartache.

"Why didn't you tell Mom about such a big thing?"

Grandma Xiao wasn't blaming her eldest daughter-in-law; she understood that in such matters, the eldest daughter-in-law's pain was no less than her own.

She was afraid, just like with her Eldest Son, that she wouldn't even get to see her Eldest Grandson one last time.

"Mom, your health has just improved, I was afraid you would be stimulated..."

Hearing her daughter-in-law's words, Grandma Xiao looked toward the hospital bed.

Xiao Hongjun was still fast asleep at this moment.

Grandma Xiao walked over and saw her Eldest Grandson; her hands began to tremble.

She remembered that more than twenty years ago, when she went to the Yangcheng Troops, she heard that bad news...

For the more than twenty years since then, she had still often had that dream!

"How is Hongjun's condition?"

"Mom, Hongjun has already had surgery and is recovering very well. In a month or two, he will be able to return to the Military Unit..."

Hearing this, Grandma Xiao was extremely excited.

"That's great!"

Her Eldest Grandson was still alive, the surgery was successful, he was recovering very well, and he could return to the Military Unit.

It was truly great.

"Mom, it's all thanks to Niannian. It was Niannian who invited Old Comrade Lei to perform the surgery, and Niannian herself assisted, saving Hongjun..."

Every time Mother Xiao spoke of this, she was overcome with emotion.

It was thanks to her mother-in-law picking up Niannian and raising her so big! All of this was truly fate!

The mother-in-law saved Niannian, and Niannian saved her Eldest Son.

Hearing this, Grandma Xiao's gaze turned to Xiao Niannian, and she held her Granddaughter in her arms.

"Niannian, Grandma thanks you."

"Grandma, this is my Eldest Brother, why are you thanking me..."

After a good while, Grandma Xiao was still hugging Xiao Niannian.

She had raised her Granddaughter without ever thinking about her paying anything back. But her Granddaughter, the moment she got the news, rushed to the Chengdu, invited such a capable Old Comrade Lei, and together with Old Comrade Lei, performed the surgery on her Eldest Grandson, saving his life! And she also saved her Eldest Grandson's dream, so he could continue to stay in the Military Unit in the future.

Grandma Xiao was in tears.

Xiao Niannian took a tissue and wiped Grandma Xiao's tears.

"Grandma, don't cry."

"Grandma is happy, I'm excited..."

Grandma Xiao wiped her tears, looking at Xiao Niannian with a face full of tears; she was truly very proud. To have such a Granddaughter!

In recent years, she had been enjoying her Granddaughter's care. Her Granddaughter would give her several hundred yuan every year. She didn't want it, but her Granddaughter converted it into a bankbook for her and added many things to the old home.

In recent years, her clothes and shoes were all bought by her Granddaughter.

She didn't really have to spend money on food or daily necessities; they were all bought by her Granddaughter or sent back!

Even though she kept trying to persuade her otherwise, her Granddaughter insisted on doing so. She had been angry before, and had scolded her Granddaughter, but her Granddaughter still did it.

"Grandma, stop crying."

Grandma Xiao nodded, but the tears still wouldn't stop flowing.

Xiao Hongjun had also woken up at this time.

Although the voices of Grandma and his sister were not loud, he had already slept for several hours.

"Grandma, sister."

Hearing her Eldest Grandson's voice, Grandma Xiao looked at the Eldest Grandson on the bed.

"Hongjun, how are you? Does your body hurt?"

Hearing Grandma's concerned words and looking at Grandma's tear-streaked face, Xiao Hongjun smiled and said,

"It doesn't hurt! Why did you come?"

The Chengdu and the other Chengdu were so far apart, and it took over a day by train. Who had notified Grandma?

Could it be Mom? Or her Maternal Grandparents?

Hearing her Eldest Grandson's words, Grandma Xiao spoke up.

"It was a phone call from a stranger..."

Xiao Hongjun frowned.

"A stranger called you?" There must be a problem here.

Who was this?

"Eldest Brother, you should focus on recovering your health first. I will ask people from above to investigate this matter. I'll find out exactly who called Grandma. I will also ask people from above to send some people to protect Grandma..."

Xiao Niannian looked at Mother Xiao and continued,

"Mom, I will also apply for someone to protect you on your side..."

What?

Send someone to protect her?

"No need, no need, I go to work every day and don't go anywhere else!"

Mother Xiao smiled and refused.

Hearing her Granddaughter's words, Grandma Xiao's expression became serious.

Could it be because of the mission her Eldest Son and the others had carried out before?

Were those the people targeting her Eldest Grandson?

And they even called to notify her?

That wasn't right; more than twenty years had passed since then.

Could it be Niannian?

She thought of Niannian being in the Special Forces Brigade, and that she was carrying out very dangerous missions.

Could it be that those spies had found out about Niannian, so they were thinking of targeting Niannian's family?

Those bastards, they deserved to die!

"Niannian, you must be careful..." Grandma Xiao said worriedly.

"Grandma, don't worry, I will be careful!"

Xiao Niannian knew what kind of person Grandma was, so she decided to tell Grandma about the situation. Of course, she wouldn't tell Grandma about the research matters.

She would just tell Grandma about it so she would be more careful.

"Mom, you should go home and rest first. I'll stay here. Weijun, you also take Grandma and sister back to rest."
