Let you be a great man, not a scumbag

After a moment's silence, the great grandfather continued slowly.

"At that time, people generally married early, and I was no exception. After China was pacified, I got married. At that time, I worked as a factory director in several state-owned factories in Magic City. Not only that, I even went to the Great Goose Country to study for a period of time."

"I can say that I was busy all day long during those years, thinking only about how to do my job well and improve productivity, so as to create more job opportunities for everyone."

"After I returned to China after further studies and settled down, my position was promoted again and again. My children were grown up, and for a period of time, I always arranged for them to serve in the army."

"Although society was stable at that time, unrest still occurred frequently. However, I thought that I had gone through the same thing when I was young, so I made up my mind to let them take risks and build their careers. More than 20 years ago, in a territorial dispute with another country, your eldest uncle and second uncle..."

The voice stopped abruptly, and the second grandfather continued.

"You should have read about these past events. When the country was first settled, everyone was tired of fighting. As long as the war was mentioned, no one wanted to go, let alone lead a team. Everyone was against it. Even the leaders' descendants took part in the battle. As the saying goes, every man has his share of responsibility for the fate of his country!"

After Second Grandfather finished saying this, Jiang Cheng frowned tightly.

"So they all met with... misfortune?"

The great grandfather nodded silently, with a deep sadness flashing in his eyes.

"Some of them did sacrifice their lives for their family missions, but many others died due to various complex emergencies."

"We have fought for so many years and made so many enemies. Since your father was born, he has watched his beloved brothers and sisters pass away one after another, and his resentment towards me has grown day by day."

"In addition to our family's special background, I protected him even more closely. I was afraid that he would meet with misfortune like his other brothers. But because of this, his depressed childhood made him unable to feel the warmth of a father's love from an ordinary family..."

The great grandfather slowly recounted the past events, then turned his gaze to Jiang Cheng and continued.

"Now that I see you, I finally understand why he hopes you can be a child from an ordinary family. You exude vitality and it is obvious that you grew up in a loving environment."

"At the beginning, I had already arranged an important position for your father, but he said he didn't want to be another me. Since your mother gave birth to you, his desire for freedom has become stronger and stronger. He only hopes that you can grow up without worries. In the end, after a fierce quarrel with me, he resolutely left Kyoto..."

Seeing the mystery solved, Jiang Cheng couldn't help but nodded in shock.

From childhood to adulthood, his family environment has been very simple, after all, there are only three people in his family.

Moreover, he has a very harmonious relationship with his parents. In this relatively complicated family environment, Jiang Cheng couldn't tell who was right or wrong for a moment.

I remember watching a documentary before that told the story of our most respected grandfather.

Grandpa Tianan's life was extremely legendary, but his children also passed away one after another in subsequent wars.

As a result, there is only one grandson left now.

Is this what all heroes who accomplish great things have in common?

Second Grandpa frowned and continued earnestly.

"Jianming is such a willful kid! Jiang Cheng is already grown up, and it's time for him to come home and take on his responsibilities. After all, how long can we two old bones hold on? Sooner or later, the Jiang family will have to be handed over to him to take charge."

As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Chenghong turned to look at Jiang Cheng, his eyes full of expectation and love, and asked.

"My dear grandson, do you think what grandpa said is right? If he hadn't left, with his ability, he should have at least a few stars on his shoulders now, right?"

Jiang Cheng had never experienced these things personally, so he had no say on such topics.

Jiang Cheng smiled, then cleverly changed the subject, saying with a smile: "Grandpa, Second Grandpa, you two are still so strong, you can't say such things casually."

Hearing Jiang Cheng say this, the two old men burst into laughter.

"Our good grandson is so sensible and well-behaved. Grandpa is so happy to see you," the second grandfather patted Jiang Cheng's shoulder with a smile on his face.

"Yeah, let's sleep here tonight. Grandpa has already made arrangements."

Seeing that Jiang Cheng had no objection, the great grandfather said happily.

"I know you young people are used to freedom. Don't worry, I have arranged a courtyard house for you in Houhai. You can live there."

"It's not far from here, the security there is good, there are people patrolling, you can come over to eat when you are free, so you don't feel uncomfortable living with us old guys."

Hearing his great grandfather say this, Jiang Cheng couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly.

This system arrangement is OK.

From the facial expressions of Wang Congcong and others just now, Jiang Cheng keenly noticed the unusualness of the courtyard house rewarded by the system.

After hearing what his grandfather said, Jiang Cheng probably understood that the location where it was located might have some special features.

After all, he knew a little about the courtyard houses in Kyoto.

It is said that even those small-sized courtyard houses located in ordinary alleys have sky-high prices per square meter.

If the location is better, and there is a spacious courtyard house, then it can be valued more than just money.

Originally, Jiang Cheng needed to rack his brains to find a reasonable excuse for the courtyard house that the system rewarded him with.

After all, the relatives around him are not ordinary people, but now this difficult problem has been solved so easily.

"Thank you, great grandfather."

After Jiang Cheng finished speaking, his second grandfather Jiang Chenghong said, "Brother is worried that you will not be used to living here and want to go back to Kyoto, so he immediately arranged a room for you. He wants you to stay in Kyoto for a while when you are free and come to see us occasionally."

"Don't you think so too, kid?"

"Hahaha~~"

.....

After chatting for a while, Jiang Cheng took a nap arranged by his great-grandfather.

When Jiang Cheng came out of his nap, he found that his grandfather was still sitting on the lounge chair in the yard, basking in the sun and looking at the fallen leaves in the yard.

Looking at this somewhat lonely background, Jiang Cheng suddenly understood why some elderly people always like to bask in the sun and stay there for most of the day.

After listening to his great-grandfather's story, Jiang Cheng now understands a little.

Maybe it means that everything you see is memories, and everything you hear is regrets!
