Volume 1 Chapter 256 There is something fishy about Captain Du's promotion

What's more, Political Commissar Xie's family lived next door. She knew that as long as Gu Tingxiao went to tell them, Political Commissar Xie would naturally come to help when he heard the noise.

Having been a neighbor of Political Commissar Xie's family for such a long time, I naturally knew some of Political Commissar Xie's habits.

Aunt Xie would also gossip when chatting, and Political Commissar Xie liked to sleep quietly.

Sure enough, the yard became quiet. Sometimes Aunt Du couldn't help but raise her voice, but she would restrain herself.

After all, Political Commissar Xie had spoken, and she didn't dare to become a stumbling block to her son's career.

But he was also feeling uncomfortable because a woman had alarmed Political Commissar Xie. He didn't know what kind of seductive woman she was.

Aunt Du cursed Sheng Wanyan in her heart for a long time before she calmed down and asked her granddaughter to cook.

"Do you think you are a rich lady? Do you think you are being supported and fed for free?"

"Hurry up and cook for me!"

When Captain Du’s daughter heard Aunt Du’s cursing, she was immediately frightened out of her wits.

"Grandma, I...I'll go right away."

Aunt Du rolled her eyes. This money-loser was eating and using her son's things, and he really thought he was a rich lady?

"I really spoil you."

———

Sheng Wanyan fried two dishes for lunch, and Gu Tingxiao also came back during the break.

"Wife, I'll serve the dishes, you go sit down."

Sheng Wanyan nodded and went to sit at the dining table to wait for lunch.

"Did I bother you today?"

Gu Tingxiao asked her about the situation, and Sheng Wanyan answered truthfully.

"No, I have calmed down a lot."

Gu Tingxiao nodded after hearing this and felt relieved.

Aunt Du and her family were not in the tube-shaped building, so they were not tortured by her loud voice in the tube-shaped building. Now she came here to torture Sheng Wanyan and the others.

Fortunately, we have Political Commissar Xie here, so there won’t be any more trouble.

"That's good, wife, eat more."

Gu Tingxiao picked up a chicken leg for her. The pheasant was dried by Sheng Wanyan before, and it was fried with some bacon and very fragrant.

"Okay, you eat too."

Sheng Wanyan picked up two pieces of chicken for him, and the couple lowered their heads to eat.

After dinner, Gu Tingxiao washed the dishes and then went into the room for a nap.

Sheng Wanyan also felt sleepy. As the month got older, her sleep became deeper and she wanted to sleep more.

It was already three o'clock in the afternoon when I woke up, and Gu Tingxiao had already gone to the army.

Sheng Wanyan woke up and had nothing to do so she started translating. Soon Aunt Xie, as well as the wife of Regiment Commander Fang (Xu Guihua), the wife of Battalion Commander Wang (Yang Wanshu), and the wife of Deputy Company Commander Feng (Qiao Hehua) came to chat.

Today is Saturday, Xu Guihua doesn’t have to go to work and the children at home don’t have to go to school, so they have time to have fun together.

The children gathered together and ran out to play. Since they were all in the staff compound, there was no need to worry at all.

Now that Pan Yue has given birth to a child, she has some free time to gossip with the military wives.

Hu Zi fell asleep, and Grandpa Sheng and Grandma Sheng were watching him, so they came over to join him.

"Sisters-in-law, drink some water."

Sheng Wanyan went to bring out a few glasses of water, and everyone saw her and told her to stop working.

"We can do it ourselves. Captain Gu's wife, please stop worrying."

"Yeah, yeah, we'll do it ourselves."

Sheng Wanyan smiled and nodded, then sat down to chat with everyone.

Captain Fang’s wife (Xu Guihua) brought a pound of melon seeds, and everyone ate them and chatted together.

"Come on, share some."

"How big is Captain Gu's wife's belly?"

Except for Aunt Xie, no one else knew that Sheng Wanyan was pregnant at first.

After all, we didn’t go out in the middle of winter, so Sheng Wanyan returned to Kyoto to celebrate the New Year after more than three months.

If no one had seen Sheng Wanyan with a big belly after the New Year, no one would have reacted.

"More than six months."

"So big? Time flies."

Xu Guihua was a little surprised. After not seeing the child for a while, the child was already 6 months old.

"Yes, but Captain Gu has been married to my sister-in-law for so long, and the family will be more lively with a child."

"Isn't it? It's always different to have a child in the house."

The military wives shared their experiences with her one after another, and Sheng Wanyan nodded as she heard them.

"That's not the case. When my husband talked about the mission before, he was even more motivated when he thought about the child at home who was crying for food."

Deputy Company Commander Feng’s wife (Qiao Hehua) said something, and there is nothing wrong with what she said.

As parents, this is indeed what we think.

"That's right. Now that we have a child, we have to plan everything for the child."

Captain Fang's wife (Xu Guihua) gets a headache when she thinks of those naughty kids in her family.

Although sons are great, as a mother, I should have started saving money for them to get married more than ten years ago.

"By the way, Captain Du's family moved here. Are they making any noise?"

They knew very well how noisy Captain Du's family was. Weren't they the ones who were tortured before?

Now that we have moved out, I can’t help but think about how comfortable the tube-shaped building was.

"Your uncle Xie has gone to warn them, how dare they make trouble?"

Aunt Xie was cracking melon seeds, her voice full of pride. Her own men had stepped in, so they didn't have the courage to make a fuss.

"That's true. Have you heard about it?"

Xu Guihua looked at them with a gossipy look on her face. Sheng Wanyan really didn't expect that Xu Guihua, who was usually a bit aloof, would be so cold.

She gossips more than anyone else!

"I heard that Captain Du's promotion is out of the question."

Everyone was a little confused when they heard the news. Didn’t you say before that there was a good chance of promotion?

How come this suddenly stopped happening? ? ?

Sheng Wanyan and Pan Yue looked at each other, thinking that there must be something fishy going on.

It’s not that there’s something fishy about whether or not you get promoted, but that there’s something fishy about getting promoted!

"What's going on?"

Everyone was shocked and immediately asked Xu Guihua who had first-hand information.

Xu Guihua looked very proud, but in the end they still had to rely on her for information. What would everyone do without her?

"I heard that Captain Du stole the credit for the previous promotion."

"It was the company commander of the neighboring regiment who rescued a leader. That leader came from Kyoto to inspect. Captain Du happened to be leading the team that day, so…"

Everyone was stunned by the news brought by Xu Guihua, and the first one to react was Aunt Xie.

"Oh my God! He is stealing someone else's credit!"

"You're using your position to suppress your subordinates!"

Aunt Xie's words brought everyone back to their senses, and they all couldn't believe it.

"The leader wanted to promote the person who saved him, but Captain Du stole the credit. When the company commander next door found out, he confronted him directly."

"But Captain Du said that he was the leader of the team, and that everyone should share the credit. This is indeed true."

Everyone agreed with Xu Guihua's words. After all, they were all deployed on the mission together, and it just so happened that the company commander of the neighboring regiment was the person providing close protection.

But everyone cooperated in the mission, and everyone deserves a share of the credit.

But the one who blocked the bullet for the leader was the company commander next door, so Captain Du forced everyone who was on the mission to smear something on their faces.
