Transmigrated as the Evil Stepmother, I Bully the Whole Family, Yay!

Chapter 260

Before Lin Han took his family to the Capital, he first saw his older brother and sister-in-law off on the train home. Before they left, he promised that if there was a chance in the future, he would transfer Sicheng to his side, telling them not to worry.Lin Jianshe patted his younger brother's shoulder. He can receive your protection just the same in Rongcheng, so we have nothing to worry about.

Living in the family compound these past few days, the couple finally realized how extensive Lin Han's network was in the military district. The brigade and division commanders above him personally came to see him off, and even the highest-ranking chief sent a gift.

Moreover, the person taking over his position had also been decided. It was a young man he had met named Luo Hao, who had a very good relationship with his son.

Sitting on the train, even the usually carefree Zhou Wei sighed. Lin Jianshe asked her what was wrong.

I just feel that the gap between us and your second brother's family is getting bigger and bigger. Xiaocheng has his uncle and aunt to look after him, so we don't need to worry about his future. But what about Xiao Zhong? Is he going to spend the rest of his life farming at home?

Perhaps the gap in living conditions between them and Lin Han now would be repeated in their two sons in the future.

Why are you thinking so much? We are farmers, and there is no shame in farming.

Lin Jianshe didn't have any ideas in his heart either, only thinking of taking things one step at a time.

Zhou Wei, however, didn't want to leave it at that. Dear, we still have some money on hand. Let's borrow a bit more from his grandparents and send our son to work in a factory. Being a factory worker is an iron rice bowl; he would get paid every month!

Meanwhile, back at the military district, Luo Hao was also called in for a talk with the brigade commander. When he received the news that he was going to be promoted to deputy regiment commander, he was simply pleasantly surprised.

With your qualifications, you've long been eligible for a promotion to deputy regiment commander. Now that the division commander is looking out for you from above, once you get the work sorted out, you will lead this regiment. Do you have confidence?

Yes! Thank you for your guidance, Brigade Commander!

Luo Hao knew that the division commander's willingness to favor him definitely involved Regiment Commander Lin's influence. He walked out of the brigade commander's office in a daze and only calmed down when he saw Han Yongxiang.

His promotion meant that Han Yongxiang had lost his chance. He suddenly didn't know how to face this brother of his...

Why the long face? Did you get scolded?

Luo Hao shook his head. It's a good thing, it's just...

Han Yongxiang was much better informed than he was. Alright, don't be so wishy-washy. Isn't it just a promotion to deputy regiment commander? Anyone who didn't know better would think you were about to retire looking at your face. We have to drink well tonight, and it can also serve as a farewell dinner for me.

You're leaving?

Luo Hao's heart skipped a beat, thinking it couldn't be because he didn't get the deputy regiment commander promotion, right? Lao Han usually didn't seem like such a materialistic person.

Stop, I can see exactly what you're thinking. It's really not because of that. Actually, my dad wanted to transfer me back two years ago, but I kept refusing. I just wanted to be a soldier under Regiment Commander Lin.

Putting it that way, Luo Hao understood. Regiment Commander Lin was transferred to the Capital, and Han Yongxiang was going with him. No wonder this guy didn't show the slightest bit of reluctance when seeing the commander off.

He angrily punched Han Yongxiang. Do you still consider me a brother? You didn't even tell me about such a big thing?

Han Yongxiang cursed first, then rubbed the sore spot and complained, I was just afraid you wouldn't get promoted! I thought if a newcomer was transferred over, I would beg my old man to transfer you away with me. You heartless bastard, you still hit me!

Hearing his brother say this, Luo Hao's eyes instantly turned red. Regiment Commander Lin paved the way for him before leaving, and Han Yongxiang had his back. What had he done to deserve meeting so many sincere brothers and leaders?

Lin Han's transfer had a huge impact on Sicheng. The child had been depressed for the past few days.

Seeing this, Luo Hao angrily kicked him. Can you have some ambition? Don't wait until Regiment Commander Lin establishes a firm foothold in the Capital and wants to transfer you over, only for people to ask him what's the use of transferring a piece of trash. The Capital isn't a place just anyone can stay in. Think it through carefully yourself.

Sicheng was extremely speechless. He was just a little reluctant to part, did he really deserve a beating?

Luo Hao's own face was as black as coal, clearly reluctant to part with his second uncle and Battalion Commander Han. Hmph, he just knew how to take it out on him.

No matter how reluctant they were, they had to say goodbye. Lin Han's family finally boarded the train to the imperial capital. Along the way, the two children were full of longing for their future life.

The Capital! That was a place they had only seen in textbooks, and now they were going to live there.

Mother, I want to climb the Great Wall.

Mother, I want to go too!

Nan Sheng curled her lips. Wait until your father has a day off, let him take you.

For one, she didn't like climbing mountains, and for another, she didn't like climbing the Great Wall. Back in the day, she had been forced by her friends to climb the Hushan Great Wall, the Shanhaiguan Great Wall, the Jiayuguan Great Wall, and the Badaling Great Wall.

Especially when climbing the Badaling Great Wall, she was half-dead going up, and coming down was completely out of her control. Now, just hearing the words Great Wall made her legs tremble.

No, no, I want to go with you, Mother.

Siqi nestled into Nan Sheng's arms and acted spoiled. Mother, come with me, okay?

Nan Sheng gave a gentle push and nudged her daughter aside. No, your mother doesn't have as much energy as you do. If I can't walk anymore, can you carry me up on your back?

Lin Han smiled and said, I'll carry you up. When we have time, our whole family will go climb the Great Wall.

The two children were immediately overjoyed, but a bruise appeared on Lin Han's arm. He accepted Nan Sheng's little temper without changing his expression, wrapping his large hand around her small one. This time, it was finally his turn to follow his wife's footsteps.

Sizhe was going to high school next year. Nan Sheng calculated the time; the college entrance examination would be restored this year. His studies certainly wouldn't be delayed, and after three years of high school, he could directly take the exam for the military academy.

Getting off the train, there was a young man in military uniform waiting on the platform. Seeing Lin Han, he asked a bit uncertainly, Excuse me, are you Regiment Commander Lin?

After receiving a confirmed reply, he happily saluted. Hello, Regiment Commander Lin, hello, Sister-in-law. I am orderly Li Jun, and I will be responsible for following Regiment Commander Lin from now on. You two can just call me Xiao Li!

Lin Han also returned a military salute. Thank you for your hard work, Xiao Li. It's still early, so let's go out and have breakfast before heading back to the military district.

Yes, sir!

Li Jun helped carry the luggage into the car. Regiment Commander Lin, your parcels have already arrived at the military district in advance. I delivered them directly to your home. The rooms were just cleaned yesterday. If you need anything, let me know, and I'll go requisition it for you.

The Capital Military District was very exclusive. Logically speaking, if a regiment commander position opened up, it would definitely be filled by an internal promotion. No one expected a Regiment Commander Lin to be parachuted in, and everyone was guessing what kind of background he had.

Thinking of the instructions the brigade commander gave before he came out, Li Jun felt that he had finally latched onto a powerful backer. With Army Commander Han as his patron, Regiment Commander Lin could practically walk sideways in the military district!

The car stopped at a restaurant in the bustling downtown area. The place was very popular, and Li Jun introduced that the breakfast here was especially delicious. He was a local of the Capital and told Lin Han that douzhir paired with jiaoquan was incredibly fragrant.

Nan Sheng looked at the completely clueless Lin Han and the two children, and with a particularly wicked intent, ordered four portions of it, while she ordered a bowl of wontons for herself.

Facts proved that some people were truly chosen by Jingdu. For example, Qiqi, who ate with as much relish as Li Jun. However, Lin Han and his son were suffering. For the first time, the two, who never wasted food, had the urge to spit out what they were eating.

Nan Sheng pretended not to know. "What's wrong? Does it taste bad?"

A local nearby immediately retorted, "How is that possible? This is the most authentic shop in our area. Take a few more bites and you'll get the taste of it."

Lin Han and Sizhe eventually finished all the fried dough rings. As for the fermented bean drink, well, those who know, know.

The military region was about a three-hour drive from the city. The space here was a bit more cramped compared to Rongcheng, but fortunately, Lin Han's high rank meant they could live in a detached single-story house.

Nan Sheng felt that the courtyard here was a size smaller than the family compound in Rongcheng, and the yard was quite narrow. Fortunately, there were three bedrooms, so both children could have their own independent rooms.

Since Lin Han had arrived, he had to go show his face at the military region. The furniture in the house was complete, and the rooms were cleaned up nicely; they just needed to unpack their parcels and organize.

Nan Sheng sorted out her and Lin Han's belongings, while the two children managed their own. Qiqi was slow at packing, so after Sizhe finished his own, he went to help his sister. In less than two hours, the house took on a completely new look.

It hadn't snowed much in Jingdu this year, and the yard was clean. However, the thought of freezing her butt off going to the toilet in the future still made Nan Sheng feel a bit depressed.

Socializing was inevitable no matter where they went. Just as Nan Sheng was about to lie down, someone knocked on the door. It was the hostesses from the two neighboring houses, both of whose husbands were regiment commanders.

"Is sister-in-law at home?"

Nan Sheng felt a slight headache coming on, but she still replied in a cheerful voice, "I'm home, please come in!"

The two of them called out politely, but once they actually came in and the three met, they all laughed. "Called you wrong, called you wrong. We should be calling you younger sister-in-law."

The small courtyards here weren't right up against each other; there was about a meter of distance between them, separated by wooden fences. The middle-aged woman who entered first was their left neighbor, Wang Jiao, whose husband was Commander Zhong.

The woman who entered second was their right neighbor, Liu Fei, whose husband was also surnamed Liu. Nan Sheng changed her address and called the two of them older sisters-in-law, inviting them to sit down and talk.

Hearing the commotion, Sizhe and Qiqi came out to greet the two women before returning to their respective rooms to rest. Liu Fei kept praising the children for being so polite.

"You really know how to teach your children. You must have married quite early for your kids to be this big."

Nan Sheng didn't explain that she was their stepmother; she just laughed it off. The two neighbors had brought some fruit when they came. After accepting it, Nan Sheng gave them some pastries from Rongcheng as a return gift.

All three were quite satisfied with their first meeting. None of them were overly fussy or talkative, so they figured they would get along well in the future.

"We won't bother you any longer. Get some good rest today, and when you have time, come sit at our houses."

"I'll definitely be coming over to bother you often in the future. I just hope you won't find me annoying."

Nan Sheng personally saw the two women out of the yard before returning. She was a bit curious: did none of the military wives here have jobs? Why were they all at home at this hour?

After arriving at the military region, Lin Han was led straight to the army commander's office. There were quite a few people inside. Upon seeing Lin Han, they all sized him up and down, wanting to know exactly what abilities he possessed to be so highly regarded by the commander.

Lin Han didn't suffer from stage fright. He directly gave a military salute to everyone present. "Lin Han reporting for duty. Awaiting your instructions, Commander!"

When Commander Han's son had come home for the New Year, he had talked a lot about Lin Han and his wife. Commander Han had a very good impression of the couple, and seeing Lin Han's striking appearance in person made him even more satisfied.

"Although we haven't met before, we've had our interactions. You don't need to be so formal. Let me introduce you. This is Division Commander Yang, Division Commander Zhao, and Division Commander Guo. Say hello."

Lin Han saluted them one by one. "Hello, Division Commander Yang! Hello, Division Commander Zhao! Hello, Division Commander Guo!"

All three of them had been single-handedly promoted by Commander Han. They understood their old leader's intentions very well: he wanted them to take good care of this young man.

"This is your direct superior, Brigade Commander Song!"

"Hello, Brigade Commander Song!"

After the introductions, the division commanders and Brigade Commander Song took their leave. In private, Commander Han's attitude toward Lin Han became even more amiable.

"Little Lin, the capital is different from Rongcheng. You need to be a bit more high-profile, otherwise you'll face a lot of resistance when you first start working at the military region."

Lin Han had already prepared himself for challenges on the train, but he hadn't expected to become royalty the moment he reported in, with Commander Han directly acting as his protector.

Over the years, he had been trained by Nan Sheng to be very perceptive. He immediately changed his address and expressed his gratitude, "Thank you, Uncle Han, for planning on my behalf. Otherwise, I'm afraid it would be very difficult for me to gain a foothold in the capital."

Being called Uncle Han made Commander Han feel very comfortable. "I told you not to be so polite. Tonight, bring your wife and kids to my house for dinner. I already told your aunt about it this morning.

In another two days, that rascal of a son will also be back. He said he still wants to work under you. You should also help me persuade him. He's not young anymore; he needs to plan more for his future."

Lin Han readily agreed. His slightly nervous mood was completely dispelled by Commander Han's few words. You see, no matter how powerful a person is, they are still helpless when faced with a disobedient son.

Just like Commander Han. He couldn't control Han Yongxiang himself, so he could only hope that his son would take Lin Han's words to heart.

Lin Han's appearance at the military region caused a huge reaction. Everyone knew that this Regiment Commander Lin had connections with Commander Han, and those who had wanted to trip him up quietly changed their strategies.

When he returned home, his wife and children were sleeping soundly. They burned coal here, so the room was very warm. He also took off his clothes, got onto the heated brick bed, and took a nap.

The family hadn't eaten lunch. After the couple woke up, they ate some pastries to pad their stomachs. They had already prepared gifts for the Han family before coming, and today he had met several division commanders and a brigade commander.

Lin Han thought that it was better to pay visits sooner rather than later, so he discussed it with his wife, asking her to go around tomorrow. He really didn't have the time himself, as he had to go to the military base first thing tomorrow morning.

"Uncle Han said he's arranged a school for our son. It's in the city and requires boarding. He'll only get two days off a month. The students are all military kids, and it's run with military-style management."

Nan Sheng thought this was for the best, letting him adapt first. If he regretted it and didn't want to be a soldier anymore, he would still have other options.

As for their daughter's schooling, there was a primary school right here in the military region that she could attend anytime. The problem now was where Nan Sheng's workplace would be, as Qiqi would definitely have to follow her.

"In a while, have Xiao Li make another trip to the city to buy some high-grade gifts. That way, I can visit the homes of the leaders tomorrow, and we also need to tell our son about the school so he can prepare."

Whether at home or in Rongcheng, he had never left home before. He would definitely need some time to adapt once he went to school.
