"What do you want to ask the commander? Why don't I take you there now?" Jiang Mingde looked at the Xiao family mother and son, practically fuming with anger.

“Xiao Hongjun, I was the one who issued your punishment. The commander didn’t even ask about it. What is he showing favoritism towards Lin Wanwan for? Besides, do I have to list all the disgusting things your mother and sister did? Everyone in this compound knows. If he really favored Lin Wanwan, how could you be a good battalion commander? Or are you tired of being a battalion commander and want to go home and farm? If you really don’t want to do this job, I’ll go and talk to the commander right now.”

Jiang Mingde felt that he had given them too much leeway and too lenient a punishment; it was practically giving them too much face.

Xiao Hongjun's face flushed red and then turned pale as he looked at Jiang Mingde, seemingly wanting to say something but then stopping himself.

"It seems that Battalion Commander Xiao and his mother are really in cahoots. Could it be that they just want to make things difficult for us?" Lin Wanwan said sarcastically.

Xiao Hongjun felt utterly ashamed to be pointed at and gossiped about by those around him. His mother's attempt to steal a chicken backfired, and now he was being dragged into it and even disciplined.

He actually knew his mother was coming today, but he just acquiesced.

Who knew things would escalate to this point, beyond repair?

Xiao Hongjun looked at Jiang Mingde, opened his mouth, and hesitated before saying, "Commander, it was our fault today. I didn't know my mother would come and cause trouble. I will explain things to her and then send her back to her hometown."

Jiang Mingde glared at him without saying a word, then turned and left.

After seeing that most of the people had left, Lin Wanwan and Lu Feng closed the door and went home.

"Their family is disgusting, like a toad. They can't kill you, but they're annoying. They're always disgusting people like this. They're really insidious."

Lin Wanwan kicked the chair in anger, "We can't deal with him every day, he's really disgusting."

"Don't worry, leave this to me. You don't need to worry about it. I'll handle it."

Lin Wanwan looked at Lu Feng, "Are you sure? Do you need my help?"

"I'll let you know when I need your help," Lu Feng said, kissing the top of her head to comfort her.

Lin Wanwan nodded, "Remember to tell me that I am your wife, and we must share everything and everything together."

Lu Feng cupped her face and kissed her. When he let go, they were both a little out of breath. "I'm so lucky to have met you and to have married you. I'm really afraid that I used up all my luck to marry you and that you'll suffer with me."

Lin Wanwan smiled, tiptoed and kissed his lips, "Then I'll share half of my good luck with you, and we can share it together, right?"

Lu Feng lowered his head and pressed his forehead against hers, looking at her intently, while Lin Wanwan smiled with her lips pursed.

"Did you see clearly? Do I have eye boogers?" Lin Wanwan was like a mood killer.

Lu Feng chuckled, "If you don't have any eye boogers, you can simply stay silent next time you don't know what to say."

Lin Wanwan laughed and fell into his arms. Why did those words sound so familiar?

"Maybe I should stop going to work for now, so people won't gossip. There are so many unemployed military wives, and it would be too conspicuous for me to start working right after I arrived."

"No need. It was Sister Mei who found it, not you who begged for it. If you want to go, just go without worry."

Lin Wanwan nodded, "Let me think about it. Anyway, you won't starve me if I don't work. I was planning to take the college entrance exam anyway, so not working will allow me to study in peace."

After discussing it, the two went to the kitchen to cook together. Lu Feng's cooking skills were average, so he only helped wash and chop the vegetables, while Lin Wanwan took charge of cooking.

"Ah, if only we had a refrigerator, we could buy more meat and stock up every time the army slaughters a pig."

Hearing her sigh, Lu Feng thought for a moment and said, "How about I ask a friend to buy one for me?"

"No, no, no, our house is already quite conspicuous in the yard. If we buy another refrigerator, there will be a huge uproar."

Lin Wanwan almost dropped the spatula in fright. She was happy to buy the refrigerator, but she didn't know how much trouble it would cause, so she decided to forget about it.

"Wanwan, my daughter, Wanwan, are you home?"

It was Xu Zhang. Lin Wanwan immediately washed her hands and wiped them dry on her apron as she walked.

“Mrs. Xu, please come in. The door isn’t locked.”

Xu Zhang was relieved to see her. "I heard Li Chunhua is causing trouble again. I was worried you would get hurt, so I came to check on you. Are you alright?" He pulled her over and looked her over again.

"It's alright, Aunt Xu. I'm not someone who lets others bully me. On the contrary, I slapped her. She won't go and tell on me, will she?" Lin Wanwan said with a smile, linking arms with her.

“Go ahead and sue her, who cares about that?” Xu Zhang looked at her again, still uneasy.

"Aunt Xu, come in and take a look. My house is almost all set up. I'm cooking now. Why don't you stay for lunch? I want to eat your steamed egg custard," Lin Wanwan said, clinging to her arm and acting coquettishly.

Xu Zhang patted her hand and said, "Why are you even more prone to acting spoiled than when you were little?"

Lin Wanwan smiled and pulled her into the room to look, "Come and see, these curtains are all my ideas. I asked Sister Mei to sew them for me. My skills aren't very good."

"How can you say that? How can you trouble people like this?" Xu Zhang said with a smile as he looked around the room.

"Auntie, please have a seat. Wanwan asked me to make some flower tea. These pastries were bought by my parents. Wanwan loves them and was worried that we wouldn't be able to buy them here, so they bought a lot for us to bring over."

Xu Zhang looked at the pastries on the table and said with a smile, "It's been so many years since I've had these. Are they from that old, famous brand?"

"Auntie has a good eye, it's from that family."

Lin Wanwan poured her a cup of tea. "Aunt Xu, please try this flower tea. I really like drinking this."

Xu Zhang obliged, taking a sip of tea and nodding, "It is indeed very delicious."
