Bonnie also felt that the upstairs family wasn't very considerate; they knew someone lived downstairs, yet they didn't pay any attention to their surroundings.
"Sister-in-law, there's been a lot of banging and noise from upstairs these past few days. I was thinking that if it continues, I'll go talk to them. But people live downstairs, so let's respect each other. If it really comes to it, I'll have to contact the logistics department. Isn't this the logistics department's responsibility?"
“Our family compound has a neighborhood committee, which is also staffed by military spouses. You can try communicating with them first. If that doesn’t work, then you can contact the logistics department.” Aunt Gu explained the process to Bonnie.
Bonnie recalled that when she was in the South China Sea Fleet, there was also a neighborhood committee, but it didn't play its proper role and was later taken over by the logistics department.
Hopefully, the neighborhood committee here can do practical things and not just occupy positions without doing their jobs.
Sister-in-law Gu then mentioned the other three households upstairs and downstairs from Bao Ni's house.
Across from Brigade Commander Hao's house was Political Commissar Liang's house. His wife, Wei Li, was a doctor at a military hospital. They had a son and a daughter and lived a harmonious life.
Downstairs, Deputy Brigade Commander Zhang's wife, Wei Yan, is a teacher at a local primary school. They have three daughters but no sons, and his mother-in-law often comes to make trouble because of this.
Brigadier General Ma's family situation is special. His wife, Fu Mei, is in poor health and it took them many years of marriage to give birth to a son.
I haven't been working due to health reasons. My son got into Peking University this year, which is very impressive.
Sister-in-law Gu gave a brief introduction to Bao Ni's neighbors so that Bao Ni would have a general idea of who they were.
"Sister-in-law, this is the first time I've had so many neighbors all at once. Before, we all lived in detached houses with our own yards, and the neighbors weren't this close. If you didn't like someone, you could just stay away from them. But this time, even if you don't like someone, you'll still have to interact with them since you share a wall."
I have no idea what will happen. Really, I'm not one to put up with things. Living like this, it's easy for conflicts to arise! Bonnie had a headache just thinking about it.
If she could, she would like to move out, but that's not realistic.
"It's alright, you'll get used to it. Once you've made your stance clear, they'll know your bottom line and understand. At this level, the involvement is too broad, and they won't be too extreme." Sister-in-law Gu looked at the lifeless Bao Ni, whose round face made her look nothing like someone in her thirties.
No matter how upset she was, she had to keep looking forward to life; Lin Baoni was never afraid of trouble.
