Chapter 3410: Old Friends

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

The two old madams met at the funeral of one of their old friends. After not seeing each other for many years, the two of them were no longer young. They had white hair and deep wrinkles. For a moment, they were silent for a long time. Then, they slowly talked and let bygones be bygones. They also agreed to hang out more when they were free. They couldn’t be as willful as when they were young anymore.

Hence, Old Madam Qin and Old Master Qin went out to visit their old friends on the fourth day of the new year.

When Old Master Qin heard his old friend talking about his grandson, his tone was sincere. At the same time, he was relieved and humble. “No, no. He just learned it from his father. He’s not worthy of your praise. I won’t ask him to do anything in the future. I just hope that he can serve the country well now. I won’t have any regrets.”

“Hahaha, you’re still the same as when you were young. You pretend to be humble even after getting an advantage. What regrets could you have when you’ve personally groomed two such powerful diplomats?”

“You’re still the same as before. You always say that I pretend to be humble after gaining an advantage. Our country was like this back then. Sometimes, it has to be like this.

“I’m not like you. You’d pull a long face when you disagreed with us. We, the diplomats, started to feel frightened. We were really afraid that you would open fire on those countries that wanted to take advantage of our country.

“When the Head was here, he even secretly told me that as long as you pulled a long face, you would do anything. My heart was always in a panic. I was afraid that something would happen.”

Recalling the past, the two old masters laughed loudly. Everyone in the Xia family knew that their family’s elderly couple were very happy about the arrival of the Qin family.

It did not seem like the union of two old madams who had never interacted with each other. There was the joy of when an old friend came to visit.

Then, they heard Old Master Qin’s strong voice. “Qin Xiu, quickly thank your Grandpa Xia for his praise. He doesn’t praise people easily. Today, he praised you. It can be seen that you’ve really done something worthy.”

As Qin Xiu’s grandpa, he naturally knew how outstanding his grandson was. However, he was even happier to hear his old friend praise his grandson sincerely. This meant that his grandson had received the recognition of the older generation.

There was nothing better than this!

Qin Xiu said respectfully, “Thank you for your praise, Old Xia. It’s what I should do.”

He was neither servile nor overbearing. He was calm and displayed the demeanor of a diplomat, making the old master even more satisfied.

The country needed such a person to carry the heavy responsibility!

The name ‘Qin Xiu’ floated into Ye Jian’s ears. Ye Jian instinctively looked at Xia Jinyuan, who was sitting a distance away. Coincidentally, Xia Jinyuan was looking at her too. When their gazes met, Ye Jian’s eyes were filled with questions.

In the past, Captain Xia had personally told her that the old madam of the Qin family and the old madam of the family had been at odds since they were

young.

However, from the laughter of the four elders, it didn’t seem like anything was wrong.

They clearly had a good relationship.

Xia Jinyuan was puzzled too. He shook his head at Ye Jian, indicating that he didn’t know why the two elders suddenly reconciled. Looking at the expressions of his uncles and Old Xia, they were puzzled too. It seemed that only the four elders understood the situation.

The four elders chatted and laughed as they entered. Qin Xiu followed closely behind. After entering, Qin Xiu was shocked by the room full of people and stopped in his tracks.

He knew that the Xia family was thriving, but after seeing this, the psychological impact was still very strong.

Especially since there were many people in military uniforms, it was even more visually impactful. However, the person who shocked Qin Xiu the most was… Ye Jian..
