It was a nice weekend, and Xie Yuanchao was on duty in the office, and he didn't think there was anything wrong with it.
Qin Muye asked him to reconcile the camp's expense reports for this year and make a plan for increasing revenue and reducing expenditure in the second half of the year. This was a bit of a headache for him.
He ran to ask the battalion commanders of other battalions if they had any samples for him to copy.
As a result, no other camps were required to do this.
Everyone said that Captain Qin was definitely going to set an example by targeting their "Wild Wolf Camp".
Now Xie Yuanchao had no choice but to bite the bullet and write it himself.
He was not afraid to lead soldiers in training or go to the battlefield, but Xie Yuanchao felt really bad about doing this writing work.
I've been scratching my head till it's almost bald, and I've only managed to come up with two short paragraphs.
But he had to do it because he didn't want to hinder his brother-in-law's work.
Just when I was getting annoyed, the office door opened.
Qiu Jianshan walked in, threw a cigarette to Xie Yuanchao, and joked with him, "What's wrong? Xiao Xie, are you trying to become an advanced student this year? Why are you on duty every day?"
Xie Yuanchao didn't think much about it at first. He took the cigarette and complained to Qiu Jianshan, then asked, "Old Qiu, you're not on duty, what are you doing here?"
Qiu Jianshan invited Xie Yuanchao: "Something happened in the camp, so I came over. I saw that your office door was not closed. Would you like to come in and take a look?
It’s almost noon, let’s go to my house for lunch.
I have braised pork at home today, let's go and have two bowls."
Xie Yuanchao's heart skipped a beat.
He thought the letter that Xie Dahong showed him last night was just a prank.
It may not be really written by Xie Dahong, maybe it was written by someone else.
So he didn't take it to heart at all.
He didn't expect Qiu Jianshan to actually invite him to dinner?
Xie Yuanchao refused, "I haven't finished my work yet, so I won't go."
Qiu Jianshan usually gave everyone the impression of being a very honest and straightforward person. He went to Xie Yuanchao casually and said, "Come back and do it. You can't skip meals when you're doing revolutionary work, right?"
Xie Yuanchao broke free from Qiu Jianshan's arm and asked, "Captain Qiu, are you hiding something from me?"
Qiu Jianshan smiled awkwardly and scratched his head, "You figured it out? Didn't Lili's aunt force me to invite you?
If I don’t invite you back, I won’t have any share of the braised pork today.”
Xie Yuanchao frowned. Was it a coincidence?
"Why did sister-in-law insist on inviting me?"
Qiu Jianshan was stunned and said, "I don't know? Maybe Lili is coming over at noon? I just want to create an opportunity for you to have more contact."
Xie Yuanchao carefully observed Qiu Jianshan's expression and thought that he was not hiding anything.
It’s no wonder that he couldn’t see it, because Huang Juhua had planned this without telling Qiu Jianshan.
Qiu Jianshan really thought that his wife was simply acting as a matchmaker.
Xie Yuanchao thought about the anonymous letter that Xie Dahong showed him last night, and he was full of questions and a little annoyed.
Xie Yuanchao had some feelings for Huang Lili. When they first met, Huang Lili left a very good impression on him.
But he did listen to what Xie Wan said that day.
He felt that his sister would not wrongly accuse someone for no reason.
There must be a misunderstanding between the two.
He promised Xie Wan that he would think about it carefully, so he was not so anxious to get too close to Huang Lili.
Every time he felt like looking for Huang Lili, Qin Muye happened to arrange a job for him.
After a while, he calmed down a lot and thought that marriage was a big matter and should be considered slowly and carefully.
So when Huang Lili asked him to go swimming, he thought that in the water, the two of them would inevitably have some overly intimate contact. Although he swallowed several times, he still controlled himself and refused.
He told himself that work was his priority, but in fact he was also afraid that if he couldn't control himself and something happened between him and the lesbian, that would be troublesome.
The content of that letter was a bit scary.
In Xie Yuanchao's opinion, Qiu Jianshan and Huang Lili are not that kind of people.
The content of the letter is more like slander.
Xie Yuanchao asked Qiu Jianshan to wait for a moment. He pretended to tidy up the desk and began to think about the letter carefully.
Qiu Jianshan didn't know what he was thinking about. He lay down on the chair opposite him in a relaxed manner, chattering about what delicious dishes his wife Huang Juhua had cooked today and how she had instructed him to find Xie Yuanchao.
Xie Yuanchao thought that even if the content of the letter was true, the only person who could know about it could be someone who overheard the conversation between Huang Juhua and Huang Lili.
The person who wrote the anonymous letter was most likely a neighbor or friend of the two.
After thinking about it, Xie Yuanchao actually guessed that the anonymous letter was most likely written by Li Yufeng.
He had two reasons.
First, Li Yufeng and Huang Juhua live next door to each other.
Second, Li Yufeng loves to spread rumors.
Xie Yuanchao knew that Li Yufeng spread rumors about Xie Wan.
He also met Li Yufeng several times when he went to Xie Wan's house.
Qin Muye also introduced Li Yufeng's husband Jiang Jianjun to each other.
At first, he was very angry at Li Yufeng for spreading rumors about his sister, and he was the one who called Xie Dahong to go to the tube building to clear Xie Wan's name.
"I don't know what's wrong with this gossipy woman who is making trouble out of nothing. She wants to make up such vicious rumors and slander Huang Lili."
Among these three, Qiu Jianshan, Huang Lili and Li Yufeng, Xie Yuanchao is more inclined to trust Qiu Jianshan and Huang Lili.
After realizing this, Xie Yuanchao relaxed.
"Xiao Xie, let me tell you, if you don't come back with me today, my tigress will definitely give me a skin.
She started working in the morning and cooked a lot of delicious dishes.
And Lili said that you two haven't been together for a long time.
If you are worried about the negative impact, with our elders here, what's wrong with you two communicating more and increasing your understanding?"
Xie Yuanchao shook his head, feeling that he could not be disturbed by Li Yufeng's letter.
If it is really as written in the letter, then wouldn't even the most basic sense of trust between people be gone?
Then, wouldn't Xie Yuanchao have to run away whenever he sees a woman in the future?
Xie Yuanchao encouraged himself and finally agreed to go to Qiu Jianshan's house together.
He reminded himself, "Don't drink. Be careful. Once you go there, you'll know it's fake."
Perhaps in his heart, he hoped to see it with his own eyes to dispel this mystery so as not to affect his impression and judgment of Huang Lili.
