Looking at the agitated man, Ruan Yunxi was both amused and exasperated: "Commander Gu, a man should be magnanimous. It's just a few cherries. Others eat the ones I picked, but you eat the ones I fed you. Aren't you satisfied?"

Come to think of it, it's because she fed me.

I still treat him better and care about him more.

"Can I go see my mom after dinner?" Gu Weizhou asked.

Ruan Yunxi nodded generously: "Sure, that's your mother, not your enemy. Why can't you go see her? Don't worry, I'm not angry. If it weren't for your mother, she wouldn't have given birth to such a handsome and wonderful man waiting for me to marry."

Gu Weizhou, who had been coaxed into pouting, was secretly delighted.

I got dinner from the cafeteria and ate it there.

Two meat dishes and one vegetable dish: minced meat and eggplant, tomato and egg, plus a "Di San Xian" (a dish of potatoes, green beans, and eggplant), potatoes, green beans, and an eggplant. The taste was pretty good, and Ruan Yunxi ate several pieces of potato.

After eating and drinking his fill, Gu Weizhou went empty-handed to visit his mother, who was being held in solitary confinement.

Each person lives in a small room, and outside the door is a tall, small, and well-ventilated window.

No one spoke to them, and no one kept them company.

After being imprisoned, Gu's mother harbored a grudge against Ruan Yunxi, believing that she wouldn't have been imprisoned if it weren't for her.

As soon as Gu Weizhou appeared, Gu's mother immediately complained, "Look at the kind of daughter-in-law you married! I'm her mother-in-law, and she actually said she didn't know her. How could she do that?"

Gu Weizhou frowned: "Mom, have you fulfilled your duties as a mother-in-law?"

"Putting everything else aside, you know why Mother Le came to the base."

“Don’t you know what Le Yao did? She tried to set fire to my wife and burn her to death. She’s my wife, my lover, your daughter-in-law, your son’s wife, the person he loves. Is she not as good as Le Yao?” Gu Weizhou looked at his mother with disappointment.

Mrs. Gu was stunned for a moment, then questioned, "Did your wife say something to you? You believe your wife."

"Mom, my wife did nothing wrong. The one who's wrong is Le Yao, and it's you. If you still consider me your son, you should think carefully about whether you came here to visit relatives or to accompany Le Yao's mother to settle scores with your son and daughter-in-law." After saying this, Gu Weizhou left without looking back.

Stunned by those words, Gu's mother found herself in a dilemma.

And my stomach, to my dismay, started growling at that moment.

Unconcerned about losing face, Gu's mother shouted in the direction Gu Weizhou had disappeared, "Son, bring me some food, I'm hungry!"

Gu Weizhou pretended not to hear. With such a muddle-headed mother, it wouldn't matter if she missed a meal; she wouldn't die anyway.

Hearing the noise, Yue's mother exclaimed, "Is that Gu Weizhou?"

"Gu Weizhou, come here!"

"Gu Weizhou, you little rascal, you've grown up and become quite something. You don't even listen to your aunt anymore. I used to treat you so well, and you..." Before Le's mother could finish speaking, a basin of cold water was splashed on her, soaking her face.

"Wake up! I'm not your mother to be manipulated. I haven't even settled the score with you for causing trouble for my wife today!" Gu Weizhou looked at Le's mother through the iron gate with a hint of murderous intent.

Le's mother: "......"

“Your daughter committed arson and deserves it. You can accept it if you want, but you have to accept it whether you want to or not. Don’t think that our base is like Beijing, or that it’s your street. This place isn’t where you call the shots.”

Gu Weizhou warned, "Don't try to persuade my mom, I won't fall for it."

"You...you really think you're all grown up now." Mrs. Yue was furious.

Gu Weizhou scoffed, "That's my own skill."

A moment of choking, Le's mother didn't know how to refute.

Indeed, Gu Weizhou's success today is all due to his own hard work. His family has no connections in the military, but he managed to break through and become the youngest regimental commander in the base.

When a hard approach didn't work, Mrs. Yue decided to try a softer one: "Yao Yao has admired you since she was little and treats you like a brother. Is it too harsh to make her go through ten years of labor reform?"

“My own sister died after my mother gave birth to her. Don’t try to pay me back, I don’t have a sister that big.” Gu Weizhou scoffed, “Whether she’s big or not isn’t up to me to decide, it depends on what she did.”

"It's obvious your daughter has gotten into a lot of trouble. Instead of wasting time arguing with me, you should reflect on whether there are problems with your parenting!"

When Le's mother was mocked for being ill-mannered, her expression immediately turned sour.
