Liu Cuihua saw so many villagers looking at her, her face turned pale and red, but she still said stubbornly: "I did this for Lu Cheng's good. Lin Yuexi is not worthy of my third son at all."

Lu Cheng walked forward, looked at his mother, and said with great sorrow: "Mom, what on earth do you want to do? Yuexi is my wife, the mother of my child, the person I love. You are only embarrassing me by doing this."

Liu Cuihua said, "San'er, I am your mother, the one who gave birth to you and raised you. Everything you have is given by me.

This unfilial son actually married a wife and forgot his mother. He was completely bewitched by this woman and didn’t even give me a penny of allowance. How can I live like this…”

"Mom, you gave birth to me and raised me, but for the past five years I have sent you a 15 yuan allowance every month. You also embezzled Yuexi's 30 yuan allowance, leaving my wife and children to live in the kitchen and starve. Is there any mother like you?" Lu Cheng said loudly in anger.

He originally didn't want to say this in public, after all, she was his mother, but he was too angry today.

"Lu Cheng, you are my son. Everything you have, including your life, belongs to me. What's wrong with me taking your thirty yuan allowance?" Liu Cuihua yelled.

When the villagers in the audience heard what Liu Cuihua said, they couldn't help but whisper to each other and shook their heads to express their dissatisfaction with her behavior.

Lu Cheng looked at Liu Cuihua, his disappointment evident in his words: "Mom, why don't you understand? Yuexi is my wife, the one who will accompany me through life. How can I gain a foothold in the village and feel at ease in the army if you treat her like this?"

Liu Cuihua was still unyielding: "I don't care, anyway, this woman can't stay with you. If she takes you away, what will I do for the rest of my life?"

Lu Cheng took a deep breath and tried to suppress his inner anger: "Mom, from today on, I will give you a monthly allowance of ten yuan, but you have to give it to the captain for safekeeping.

If you can recognize your mistakes and mend your ways, I will consider letting you decide for yourself.

But if you still insist on not changing your ways, then I'll use the money to help the lonely elderly people in the village, which will also be considered as accumulating some merit for you."

When Liu Cuihua heard this, her eyes widened: "How dare you! I'm your mother, you can't do this to me!"

Lu Cheng ignored her and turned to look at Xia Ziying: "Xia Ziying, we are just high school classmates. I said I have no feelings for you, but I didn't expect you to do such a thing? It's really incomprehensible, but since you have done it, you must pay the price for your behavior."

After that, he said to Captain Li, "Xia Ziying, as a salesperson in the supply and marketing cooperative, actually bribed Liu Ermazi to slander the family of an officer. She should be sent to a farm for three years of labor reform!"

Upon hearing this, Xia Ziying's face turned pale instantly. Her legs softened and she could hardly stand. She cried out, "Lu Cheng, please don't! I just like you! Don't want Lin Yuexi to be with you? What have I done wrong? Do you want the captain to send me to prison?"

Lu Cheng looked at her without a trace of pity in his eyes: "Xia Ziying, you should know that the reputation of military families cannot be slandered. If you do something like this, you must bear the consequences."

Captain Li also said seriously: "Lu Cheng's decision is correct. This matter must be dealt with seriously. We should give everyone an explanation and prevent others from making the same mistake again."

Seeing Lu Cheng being so ruthless, Xia Ziying collapsed to the ground, her eyes empty and full of despair!

At this time, Captain Li stood up and said, "Fellow villagers, everyone has seen what happened today.

Liu Cuihua and Xia Ziying maliciously spread rumors, causing great harm to Comrade Lin Yuexi.

Our village is a united and friendly collective and will never allow such a thing to happen. From today on, I hope everyone can learn from this and stop believing and spreading unfounded rumors. "

The villagers nodded in agreement.

Lu Cheng walked to Lin Yuexi and gently held her hand: "Yuexi, I'm sorry for making you feel wronged. I will deal with these things as soon as possible, and then go to the military academy to study hard and give you and your child a better life in the future."

Lin Yuexi smiled and nodded slightly. In fact, she was capable of solving these problems, but Lu Cheng's approach undoubtedly gave her reassurance that this man was a responsible and good man.

She looked at Lu Cheng with gentle eyes and said, "I believe you, Lu Cheng. Don't worry, I will take good care of myself and the child."

In the following days, Lu Cheng followed the plan and made Liu Cuihua publicly apologize in the village. He also informed the family elders of her behavior and asked them to help teach Liu Cuihua.

At the same time, he also reported Xia Ziying's problem to the town supply and marketing cooperative. Not only did Xia Ziying have to go to labor reform, but he also lost his job at the supply and marketing cooperative!

In a few days, Lu Cheng will go to Beijing to attend military school, but Zi Yan and Xi Yun, the two little guys, won't let him go.

At this time, Lu Ziyan and Lu Xiyun were already in the first grade of elementary school in the village.

Originally, Lu Ziyan and Lu Xiyun had to be seven years old to enter the first grade, but under Lin Yuexi's education, they had already surpassed the first grade level. After testing them, the village teacher Wang Hongmei made an exception and accepted them.

Seeing the two kids pestering him and not letting him go, Lu Cheng squatted down, holding his son in one hand and his daughter in the other, his eyes full of reluctance: "Zi Yan, Xi Yun, be good, Daddy is going to learn some skills so that he can better protect you and mommy in the future."

After saying that, he let the two of them down again.

Lu Ziyan blinked his big eyes and said in a baby voice, "Dad, you have to come back soon. I will take good care of mom and sister."

Lu Xiyun also nodded and held the corner of Lu Cheng's clothes tightly.

Lin Yuexi walked forward and gently stroked the children's heads: "Let Dad go. Dad is going to study. If he learns well, he will contribute to the country. It's great..."

"Really? Mom, then Dad will be a great hero in the future!" Lu Ziyan looked up at the couple.

Lin Yuexi and Lu Cheng smiled at each other. Lin Yuexi said, "Yes, Dad is a hero now and will be a hero in the future. Ziyan and Xiyun are the sons of heroes! So Ziyan and Xiyun must be good and let Dad go to the military academy to study."

When Lu Ziyan and Lu Xiyun heard Lin Yuexi say this, they happily let go of Lu Cheng's hand.

Lu Cheng stood up, hardened his heart, looked deeply at Lin Yuexi, turned around and set off for Beijing.

God knows how much he was reluctant to leave Lin Yuexi? When he thought about how happy the deep communication between the two of them was last night, he wanted to stay and not leave!

But as a soldier, how can I indulge in gentle dreams all day long?

Lin Yuexi also couldn't bear to leave Lu Cheng. She had already gone from rejecting Lu Cheng in the beginning to feeling as if they missed each other for a long time when they didn't see each other for a long time. She had already fallen deeply in love with this responsible man.

She looked at Lu Cheng's receding back until he disappeared, then she came to her senses and took the children back home.
