When He Rongxuan came back in the warm afternoon, he heard about this from He Feilongkou.
"Rumors from the family compound?"
Wen Nuan frowned, wondering who would do such a childish and ridiculous thing.
He Rongxuan embraced her warm shoulders and stroked her brow.
"Don't worry, Lao Li will investigate it thoroughly!"
"You don't have anything to worry about. A person with a clear conscience has nothing to fear. If you are still wondering who is so boring, you will be held legally responsible for spreading rumors!"
"Not all the people living in the family compound have been to school. Many of them were brought here from their hometowns. They have limited education and may not have thought that far ahead."
Speaking of this, Wen Nuan remembered an idea, but without any evidence, she could only guess at best.
Looking at her warm expression, He Rongxuan knew that she had someone she was suspicious of.
"Who do you think is more likely to be the one? Let Lao Li investigate more carefully!"
"You believe it so much!"
"You are my wife, if I don't trust you, who else can I trust?"
Wen Nuan smiled and expressed her doubts.
"Fu Lei's mother?"
"Um!"
He Rongxuan still had some impression of Fu Lei. Although he was in the First Battalion and Fu Lei was in the Third Battalion, they were in the same regiment and would see each other every day.
To be honest, He Rongxuan still has some good feelings towards Fu Lei. Although he is not very capable, he is down-to-earth, hardworking, and sincere.
I just didn't expect to meet such a mother.
"Don't worry, I'll ask Lao Li to investigate thoroughly. If it's really her, don't blame me for being rude!"
Wen Nuan nodded, but she didn't have any saintly thoughts. After all, everyone was saying bad things about her behind her back, and she couldn't be magnanimous and say she didn't care.
Besides, my man wants to help me vent my anger, why should I stop him?
After He Rongxuan called, Liu Hongmei became the focus of investigation. With a precise target, the matter was quickly solved.
Especially when Liu Hongmei said those words that day, she did not hide her identity and was recognized by others from the beginning.
After investigation and evidence collection, as well as special identification, the matter of Liu Hongmei spreading rumors to frame Wen Nuan soon came to fruition.
Fu Lei, who was called to the office by Li Heran for a talk, never thought that it was his mother who did such a stupid thing.
"Captain, I'm so sorry. It's my mother who has caused trouble for everyone. Please forgive her this time because of her age.
I promise to send her back to her hometown tomorrow. I will also go to Deputy Battalion Commander He to apologize and ask for Wen Zhi's forgiveness. Commander, please give me another chance!"
After all, there were so many veterans under his command that Li Heran felt a little reluctant.
After much deliberation, he finally decided to plead for Fu Lei, hoping that the old leader would let him go.
"This incident has caused quite a bit of impact. Even if we send your mother back to her hometown, you will still be punished. You must be mentally prepared for this!"
"You know, you are also responsible for this matter. It was you who failed to supervise the family well and did such a thing. As long as you can still let you stay in the army, you can punish you in any way!"
After working so hard to get to this position, Fu Lei was really unwilling to leave like this.
He knew that this matter was very tricky, but now he could only turn to Li Heran for help, hoping that he would help him because of his many followers.
Otherwise....he would have to transfer to another place with regret.
Seeing Fu Lei with red eyes and agitated emotions, Li Heran could only try to comfort him.
"You should go back and deal with your mother's affairs first. It would be best if your mother apologized herself. This would be more sincere.
Rongxuan will contact him to see when Wen Zhiqing will return to his family compound. You should also pay attention to him at home, after all, you are neighbors."
"Okay, I got it. Thank you, Captain. I'll go back home and talk to my mother. As for Deputy Battalion Commander He, I'll leave it to you!"
"Okay, I understand. You can go back now!"
After leaving the office, Fu Lei quickened his pace and soon returned home.
Chu Hongyu was sitting on the bed sewing clothes for her unborn baby, while Liu Hongmei was basking in the sun on a recliner with a contented look on her face.
This was the scene Fu Lei saw when he came back. Thinking of what had happened before, he couldn't help but emphasize his tone.
"Mom, why did you spread rumors and frame Wen Nuan? Didn't you tell me not to offend the He family? Didn't you promise before? Why did you still do this?"
Seeing her son suddenly furious, Liu Hongmei felt a little flustered, but she still said stubbornly:
"No, I don't know what you are talking about!"
"You still don't admit it, but the team leader has already investigated everything. We may make an announcement this afternoon.
Do you know how serious it is to frame and spread rumors about military family members who have made contributions to the troops?
If things go wrong, I might even be kicked out of the army because of you. How could you do such a thing? You are killing me!"
Liu Hongmei became scared when she heard her son say he was going to be kicked out of the army.
"I just made a few comments, why is it so serious? This has nothing to do with me. Someone must have made up the story and put the blame on me!
Son, how could I harm you? I just feel uncomfortable seeing Wen Nuan so proud of herself. You know, I have always wanted to introduce your sister to He Rongxuan."
"Mom, what are you talking about! How could He Rongxuan possibly fall for Fu Jiaojiao!"
"How is it impossible? If I hadn't returned to my hometown at that time, I would have introduced your sister to He Rongxuan long ago. How could there be any warmth?"
Veins on Fu Lei's forehead were throbbing. Looking at his stubborn mother, he knew that this was the true thought in her heart.
Sure enough, there is a cause and an effect! He was careless at first and didn't take it seriously. Now he is reaping the consequences.
"When you said that, I had already told you. That's impossible. Not to mention that I don't have much of a relationship with He Rongxuan.
Compared with Fu Jiaojiao's warmth, she is no match for Wen Zhi of the Jin family. She can't read a single word, is unruly and willful, and doesn't listen to reason.
Fu Jiaojiao's behavior is all your fault, and now you've caused such a big mess because of these unfounded things.
Mother, do you really want to send me back home before you retire? What good will it do you if I am kicked out of the army? "
"No...No, son, how can you say that! Jiaojiao is just a little bit spoiled, not as bad as you say!"
Fu Lei rubbed his forehead, waved his hand and said:
"Let's not talk about Fu Jiaojiao's matter now. Let's just talk about this time. Mom, you have to go and apologize to Wen Nuan and He Rongxuan in person. Otherwise, the consequences will be something we can't bear!"
"You want 놖 to apologize to them?"
"What if it wasn't you who did it? Do you swear you didn't say those words?"
Liu Hongmei frowned and refused to say a word. Even if it was her who said it, even if she was wrong, she just didn't want to bow to Wen Nuan.
