Chapter 1159 Trouble in the Nation? Trouble at Home?

“Fourth sister, the issue is somewhat complicated. You shouldn't meddle in it.” The eldest sister-in-law frowned slightly. If she didn't know the truth of what happened many years ago, she would also think seventh sister was overreacting regarding the matter.

“Alright, I'll listen to you, elder sister.” The fourth sister was a person who knew how to read the situation so she obediently agreed to the eldest sister-in-law's suggestion. Once she heard her eldest sister-in-law saying those words, she knew the issue was extremely complicated, so she stopped trying to be compa.s.sionate to her third sister-in-law. After all, she still needed to look after her little troublemaker. That Lan Jin was indeed her blood related grandson. All the trouble he caused definitely made her daughter-in-law endure many hards.h.i.+ps.

“Should we report this to mother?” asked the second sister-in-law.

“Of course we should tell her. I'm sure mother also wants to know about the happenings of the Ling family,” replied the eldest sister-in-law.

The three of them quickly left the gazebo and walked together to the home of the old mistress of the Lan family. Once they entered the yard, they saw a woman in her 70s tending to the flowers and plants in her yard.

The three of them immediately walked up with the intention to help, but they were quickly stopped by the mistress.

“If I let you do it, then what would I do?” calmly said the mistress as she continued to tend to her precious plants and flowers.

“Mother, we're just afraid you'll get tired.” At that moment, the fourth sister-in-law no longer acted as graceful as she was in front of the servants. Her expressions and gestures became more like that of a child.

“Alright, stop with the act. Tell me what you're actually here for. With your personalities, you definitely wouldn't just come here without reason.” The mistress knew her daughter-in-laws quite well.

“Mother, we just received news that Jin'er got into trouble with someone. Rong'er represented him and accepted the challenge.” The eldest sister-in-law didn't waste any more time and told her what had happened.

“Doesn't something like this always happen? You coming here means the challenger is somewhat special or perhaps Jin'er finally offended the wrong person?” The mistress still was calmly tending to her plants and flowers. If that brat Lan Jin did not cause trouble, she might perhaps be surprised.

“That challenger is… the son of the Ling family,” When the eldest sister-in-law said ‘son of the Ling family', she spoke in a more heavy tone.

The mistress' hands suddenly froze in mid-air. She slowly turned around, looked at her three daughters-in-law and confirmed, “The son of Ling Xiao?”

“Yes, mother,” the eldest sister-in-law nodded in reply.

“Jin'er should be taught a lesson. Good on that son of the Ling family!” the warm-looking woman suddenly laughed.

“However, the person who brought up the challenge wasn't the son of the Ling family. It was his subordinate,” continued the first sister-in-law.

“I heard that the son of the Ling family had operated a G.o.d-cla.s.s mecha and was hurt from the strain it had put on his body. Without a healthy body, letting his subordinate issue the challenge is quite normal.” The mistress seemed to be quite knowledgeable about Ling Lan's situation. She easily determined why it was his subordinate that made the move and not Ling Lan himself.

“I'm just afraid. Will this incident affect our family head?” The oldest sister-in-law had a serious expression on her face. If the Lan family and the Ling family were to be at each other's throats, it would definitely cause trouble for their family head.

“How could it affect anything?” smiled the mistress. “We're already stuck on Planet General. What else can we do? Moreover, if he can't even manage to deal with such a small matter, then he should stop being the First Marshal and come back to help me tend to these plants and flowers.”

“Do we need to inform father? Listen to his advice?” The second sister-in-law was somewhat hesitant. If someone were to publicly publish this matter, it would definitely cause some tension between their father and Ling Xiao. Moreover, right now, what their father needed the most was Ling Xiao's support.

“We have to tell him, but we don't need his advice,” the mistress replied calmly.

“Will that be alright?” The Lan family had been relying on their family head to acquire their special position on Planet General. After hearing the old mistress' words, the three daughter-in-laws were all stunned.

“I perhaps don't understand politics, but when it comes to family matters, he has to listen to me,” the old mistress said without hesitation.

Back then, because she had foolishly listened to him about family matters, all of her sons who she had carefully nurtured with love all perished in battle which left a group of widows in her family. If it wasn't for the fact that she still had three great grandchildren left, she definitely would have completely broken off her relations.h.i.+p with that old b.a.s.t.a.r.d.

What was more frustrating was that she still couldn't do anything for her third son. She didn't even have the chance to see her granddaughter who was her third son's only child… Back when her seventh son secretly told her that his third brother had a daughter, she was very excited. She read through all of the vaults of names left by her ancestors before finally giving her new granddaughter the name ‘Luofeng'. The meaning of the name was: The phoenix child in their warm grasp.

Unfortunately, the baby she wanted to cradle in her arms lost her status because of that old b.a.s.t.a.r.d who only wanted power and to climb up the ranks. The baby couldn't even receive the name she chose from the Lan family's ancestry. In the end, the baby could only be named ‘Lan Luòfèng'(A fallen phoenix)… After thinking about all this, she felt her heart ache.

“Lan Yu, if the child of our third son left behind is in any danger, I'll make sure you won't hear the end of it.”

The First Marshal ended the call. Now, his frown became even more p.r.o.nounced.

After silently sitting there for ten seconds, he sighed. “Basing judgment on emotions. However, we now know which powers are going to act rashly. Moreover, it's also a good time to check Ling Xiao's loyalty. I hope he doesn't do anything stupid.”

The First Marshal then turned on his communicator. A young and happy face suddenly appeared on the virtual screen. “Great grandfather.”

A complicated expression appeared for a slight moment on the First Marshal's face. Did this way of addressing mean that he was getting too old?

“Rong'er, I heard you challenged someone?” asked the First Marshal calmly.

“Yes.” Lan Rong instantly became anxious much like a child who was caught doing something bad. He was afraid he was going to be reprimanded for this matter by his great grandfather who he admired greatly.

The First Marshal had a hint of regret in his eyes. Out of the three children that were left, one was completely useless, and this one couldn't manage his nerves and calm himself. The only one who had a good personality and satisfied his requirements, had only common talent when it came to mecha piloting. It was difficult for him to rank up through battling. He could only slowly climb up the military using education and use time to exchange for status.

If it wasn't for the fact that monsters like Ling Xiao and Ling Lan ranked up like having jetpacks on their backs, the First Marshal perhaps would have been satisfied with the three of them. Unfortunately, these people appeared and it was not just one, but two of them, especially Ling Lan, who wasn't any slower at advancing than his father…

Sometimes, the First Marshal would reflect on his past decisions. If he had chosen another talented individual to nurture, that person would not be connected to the Lan family anymore. That way, he and Ling Xiao's relations.h.i.+p wouldn't have reached this point.

However, this was just a sudden thought he suddenly had. The feeling of regret instantly disappeared from the normally calm First Marshal's face. It was because of this trait if not regretting what he did made him to the person who he was today.

“Do you know who they are?” asked the First Marshal. If he didn't know, then he might have to give up on Lan Rong after already giving up on Lan Jin.

“I know. They're from Lingtian Mecha Clan. One of them is probably Ling Xiao's son, Ling Lan.” At least, Lan Rong had some skills, and managed to investigate Ling Lan's group in such a short time.

The First Marshal had a look of satisfaction on his face. At least, Lan Rong didn't embarra.s.s him.
