Chapter 80: The deputy battalion commander's wife is not good-looking, but gentle and kind
While the other women were washing clothes, they were chatting about village gossip, and Jiang Danyan would also join in and say a few words. It was obvious that she had a good relationship with these women.
"That's it."
The captain pointed at her and whispered.
"You said I was your distant relative."
After Luo Xinxin finished giving her instructions, she walked towards the stream, squatted beside Jiang Danyan, and greeted her with a smile: "Hello, auntie, let me wash my hands."
Jiang Danyan smiled and moved aside.
After Luo Xinxin washed her hands, she stood up and deliberately leaned to the side. Jiang Danyan subconsciously supported her and said, "Be careful."
"Thank you, Auntie. I just had a black eye."
Luo Xinxin thanked him repeatedly, but her heart was filled with joy.
She just used a card to identify people. This woman's loyalty is only 10%, and she is 100% an enemy. She is one step closer to taking off her hat.
"Are you anemic? Eat some red dates and wolfberries to replenish your blood."
Jiang Danyan's voice was a little low, not as charming and gentle as Luo Xinxin thought. She was also very tall, more than half a head taller than her, probably about 170 cm.
A woman of this height is not a big deal in the north, but it is a bit rare in the south.
"Okay, I'll eat it when I get back."
Luo Xinxin agreed with a smile.
The other women noticed that she was a stranger and had come with the captain, so they all asked the captain about her.
"This is the first time that the daughter of a distant relative has come to visit me. Xin, it's time to go home for dinner."
"Here I come."
Luo Xinxin wiped her hands and walked back with the team leader.
After she left, Jiang Danyan looked thoughtful. She quickly washed her clothes and went home.
The impatient captain walked to a secluded place, looked around to see if there was anyone around, and then asked, "What's going on? Is anyone okay?"
"Not sure yet, let me take a look."
Luo Xinxin didn't tell the truth for fear of scaring him and alerting the enemy. She also wanted to find out Jiang Danyan's accomplices.
The captain's expression was obviously disappointed. He was complaining in his heart that Luo Xinxin was just a braggart. He said that just meeting once would be enough, but now that they had met, she said she was not sure, which made him happy for nothing.
Although very disappointed, the captain still enthusiastically invited her to have dinner with him. Luo Xinxin refused. She had to quickly call Li Rong and inform him to come and capture the enemy spy.
There is no electricity or telephone in Sunzhuang, so I have to go back to the farm to make a call.
Luo Xinxin rushed back to the farm without stopping, fed Xiaohong a few eggs, and then had a full meal of fresh grass bought from the mall. Xiaohong liked it very much and was shaking her head while eating.
After Xiaohong is full, she returns it to Ma Quaner.
"I'll borrow it from you next time I need it."
Luo Xinxin was not polite at all.
Ma Quan'er frowned and ignored her, but when he saw that Ma was obviously full, his expression eased a little. This ugly woman really didn't treat Ma badly.
"See you later, Xiaohong!"
Luo Xinxin ignored his dark face. After saying goodbye to Xiaohong, she ran all the way to find Director Lei.
Director Lei was answering the phone. Luo Xinxin tiptoed into the office and closed the door. The confidential matter could not be leaked.
"That's it. Goodbye."
After Director Lei hung up the phone, he saw her closing the door like a thief, so he said, "It's not good to close the door in broad daylight. Leave it open."
As a cadre, there is an unwritten rule that when meeting a female comrade alone, the door must be opened to avoid gossip.
"What adverse effects can there be? You're already old, and I'm so ugly."
Luo Xinxin closed the door tightly.
"I'm only 48, and appearance is not important, inner beauty is what matters most."
Director Lei comforted her. In fact, he felt that the birthmark on this girl's face would become more pleasing to the eye as he looked at it more.
“My soul is not beautiful either.”
Luo Xinxin's sharp tongue doesn't even spare herself. She is neither gentle nor kind, nor generous. Inner beauty has nothing to do with her.
Director Lei wanted to persuade them a few more times, but he heard Luo Xinxin ask, "Director, I'm going to call the troops. I've found an enemy spy."
"Are you sure? How did you find out? Was it a man or a woman? Do you have any accomplices? Where is he?"
The mine director's eyes suddenly lit up, and he looked a dozen years younger.
"I'll tell you later, go away."
Luo Xinxin pulled him away and dialed the phone number awkwardly. She had never used this old-fashioned phone and was not familiar with it. Director Lei, who was standing next to her, was so anxious that he wanted to do it himself.
Finally, the call was connected, but the person who answered the phone was the switchboard, so I had to transfer it. Fortunately, it was not a long-distance call, so the call was connected quickly, but Li Rong was training new recruits, so I had to go and call someone.
"Sister-in-law, don't leave. I'll have Brother Li call you. It'll be quick!"
The person who answered the phone was Zhou Xiaohong, who was very enthusiastic.
"I'm not you...beep, beep..."
Luo Xinxin still failed to explain successfully. This guy hung up the phone so quickly.
"What sister-in-law? Xiao Luo, are you married?"
The old telephone had poor soundproofing, and the mine supervisor next to her heard it and looked at her suspiciously.
"No, it was a misunderstanding."
"What misunderstanding is calling her sister-in-law? This has a very bad influence. You are still a girl, you need to explain it clearly to her." Director Lei scolded.
"I know."
Luo Xinxin nodded vigorously. The director said that he was not old, but he was obviously showing signs of senile nagging.
military region.
Li Rong stood with his hands behind his back, taller than a cypress tree. Although he was standing under the scorching sun, he gave people a cool feeling.
"Can't you handle this? The female soldiers are more capable than you, why are you crying? If you can't handle it, pack up and go home, so you don't have to go back to the battlefield and burden your comrades!"
Several recruits were scolded and cried. They were just sobbing silently at first, but after hearing these heart-wrenching words, they could no longer hold back their tears. They felt so wronged that they wanted to go home right away.
"My sister-in-law called you and told you something important to tell her and asked you to come back quickly!"
Zhou Xiaohong was still very sensible. She didn't shout in front of so many people. Instead, she leaned over and whispered in Li Rong's ear. However, he underestimated the volume of his voice. Even if it was a whisper, people within a ten-meter radius could hear it.
The dejected recruits suddenly perked up, and even the crying ones stopped complaining and pricked up their ears to listen to the gossip.
"Keep on training!"
Li Rong asked Zhou Xiaohong to train while he went to make a phone call.
When he walked away, the new recruits were all excited and asked in unison: "Brother Xiaohong, the deputy battalion commander has a wife?"
"What does the deputy battalion commander's wife look like? Can she stand his sharp tongue?"
The new recruits all mourned in silence for their sister-in-law whom they had never met. I guess only a wooden man or a stone heart could stand the deputy battalion commander's sharp words?
"How can you be so superficial at such a young age? Appearance is not the most important thing, inner beauty is what matters. The deputy battalion commander is not as superficial as you."
Zhou Xiaohong gave him a stern reprimand in a righteous manner.
The new recruits were all quite smart and they soon realized that although the deputy battalion commander's wife was not good-looking, she was gentle and kind, which was why she moved the sharp-tongued deputy battalion commander.
Li Rong had just answered the phone when he heard Luo Xinxin's excited voice: "I found an enemy spy, 100% sure, and there is probably an accomplice. As usual, we'll split the credit equally, how about it?"
