A wonderful life through the 1970s

Chapter 66 Deng Lanjin Takes Action

After having lunch at Deng's house, I returned to the military compound as there was nothing else to do.

Mr. Lan was reading a newspaper in the living room when he saw Lan Xiyue coming back alone. Where's Yan Qing? Why did you come back alone?

A Yan said he had something to do and went to the military area.

How's Lan Jin's leg?

It's all right now. Is grandma practicing? I haven't seen her much these days.

Yes, she had a poor foundation before. Now she has used the cultivation method you gave her and wants to catch up. Even if she doesn't use it for fighting, a higher level of cultivation can help her live longer, right?

Yes, I have some medicine suitable for grandma. You can give it to her later.

Okay, give it to me and I’ll give it to her later.

By the way, have you thought about joining the special department?

Grandpa, I think it doesn't matter whether you join the special department or not. We will never sit idly by when the country is in trouble. Since joining the special department can help mom, then join it.

Old Master Lan smiled and said, it’s not without benefits. At least it saves you the trouble of getting a letter of introduction.

Lan Xiyue rolled her eyes and said, "Grandpa, do I still need that with my current cultivation level?"

It can always prevent unnecessary trouble, which is better than nothing.

Lan Xiyue didn't argue with the old man.

The wedding banquet will be held the day after tomorrow. How are the preparations going on your side?

There was nothing much to prepare, as Ah Yan didn't have many relatives there. He just notified a few friends in the army, and prepared all the supplies for the banquet.

Be more prepared. There are several young people in the family with good qualifications, and I have also notified them to come over.

Take this opportunity to ask them to come over and have a look at you. If there are any you like, keep them by your side. They can also help you run errands or something. Your brothers have useful secret guards around them. You should also choose a few people. You can't do everything yourself, right?

Okay, I'll see if there's anyone I like when the time comes.

Is there any important news today? Lan Xiyue asked as she picked up the newspaper at hand and read it?

Yes, Wang Lei, the second son of the Wang family, was arrested for corruption and bribery, and several important figures in the Wang family were implicated.

Lan Xiyue asked in surprise, "Did Uncle Lan Jin do this?"

Old Master Lan chuckled. Since Lan Jin knew that these people wanted to harm him, if he didn't take action against them, would he still keep them for the New Year? But your uncle also had his hand in it, otherwise it wouldn't be so fast.

It was a great achievement of theirs to be able to anger a banished immortal like Uncle Lan Jin, and this was a good outcome for them.

Old Master Lan glanced at Lan Xiyue and said, "Don't be fooled by Lan Jin's appearance. He is not as harmless as he seems. He is very sinister."

Haha, I know. Otherwise, the Deng family would have ceased to exist long ago.

In fact, the Deng family has been managed by your uncle Lan Jin over the years, and he is also intentionally training your third brother.

Oh? Uncle Lan Jin wants my third brother to be the heir to the Deng family?

Well, there are only two children left in the Deng family, your aunt and your uncle Lan Jin. Your uncle Lan Jin has no children, so he wants your third brother to inherit the Deng family. But now that he is in good health, he may have his own children, so there is no need to rush for an heir.

Your third brother is a lively person and doesn't like being restrained. If your uncle Lan Jin has a better choice, he doesn't want to be restrained.

Your eldest brother is in politics, your second brother is in the army. Only your third brother is unwilling to be bound and hangs around at home. In the end, he was caught by Lan Jin for training, and he had no choice. At this point, Mr. Lan couldn't help laughing.

If I tell him now that he can escape from the clutches of your uncle Lan Jin, do you believe that he will be able to jump up?

Lan Xiyue thought of Lan Jingxiu's character and smiled unkindly.

Third brother is suitable to be a chivalrous hero. I will take him with me to travel the world in the future.

You are just afraid of chaos in the world. Be careful that your third brother will take it seriously and drag you out to venture into the underworld. Let's see what you will do.

Lan Xiyue said indifferently, "Then let's go. I will go to visit the hidden families and hidden sects in a while, and bring my third brother with me."

Old Master Lan shook his head helplessly and said, "Go ahead, just be careful."
