The two walked to the quiet lotus pond, beside which there was a pavilion and a stone table. The environment was very beautiful. After work, people from the factory liked to come here for a walk.

It is working hours now, and there is no one in the lotus pond, it is very quiet.

Mo Congrong took out a handkerchief, spread it on the stone bench, and considerately asked Zhang Weihong to sit on it.

"Please sit down."

Zhang Weihong didn't hold his handkerchief, but sat on the stone bench next to her. They were about to break up, and she would definitely not accept Mo Congrong's kindness again. It would be immoral.

Mo Congrong's heart skipped a beat, and he had a bad feeling. He smiled and asked, "What's so serious? Did I make a mistake? If you say so, I will definitely change!"

"No, it's my problem, not yours. I've seriously considered it, and we should just call it quits. Fortunately, we haven't filed a marriage report yet, so there's still time for everything. Comrade Mo Congrong, although we can't be revolutionary partners, we can still be good working partners in the future!"

Zhang Weihong is not the type to drag her feet. She said it directly.

Mo Congrong stood up anxiously, "Wei Hong, did I do something wrong and make you unhappy? Point it out, and I will definitely change it!"

Damn it, he has already let the news out, and now this old woman is breaking off the engagement with him, how is he going to end this?

How would the people in the factory laugh at him?

"I said it has nothing to do with you. It's my problem. Comrade Mo Congrong, I hope you can find a more suitable marriage partner in the future. I have a small suggestion. When you are looking for a partner, don't look for someone who is too tall. A petite one will be more suitable for you."

Zhang Weihong suggested sincerely that she still had a good impression of Mo Congrong, and if it weren't for that damn petite figure, she would definitely marry this man.

If she was only 150cm tall, she might have considered it, but she is 170cm tall, which is too big a difference and it would definitely not be harmonious.

What a pity!

"You are the one I like and the one I want to marry. Why are you pushing me to other women? I don't like petite at all."

Mo Congrong's mind was working fast. He was recalling which petite female comrades he had come into contact with in recent days, which made Zhang Weihong jealous.

I really didn't expect that this old woman is so jealous!

"No, you should like petite lesbians. A tall girl like me is not suitable for you. So, forget me and start a new relationship. Bye!"

Zhang Weihong casually proposed to break up and walked away.

Although she had met Mo Congrong's parents, she observed that they were not very satisfied with her, and they had not reported their marriage, so there was no moral constraint in breaking up.

Mo Congrong wanted to chase after her. He believed that Zhang Weihong had feelings for him, and that if he could coax her well, this woman would change her mind.

But someone grabbed his collar from behind, and he heard Lu Ye's teasing laughter from behind.

“Let go!”

Mo Congrong growled, it’s this lingering lunatic again, damn it!

"Did a donkey kick your clever head? The female comrade has explained it so clearly, why are you still chasing after her? Are you really in need of a mother?"

Lu Ye lifted the man up with one hand, then turned him around in the air and made Mo Congrong turn backwards artificially. He liked to talk face to face.

"You know nothing. It's none of your business!"

After Mo Congrong stood firm, he tried to chase after him, but his neck was grabbed again.

"You're stupid but you refuse to admit it. When people ask you to find a petite lesbian, it means you're not worthy of a tall lesbian. Do you understand? If you still don't understand, go to the bathroom and take a good look!"

Lu Ye looked at him with disgust. Ever since he was a child, adults had praised Mo Congrong for his intelligence, but he simply couldn't see how smart he was. Zhang Weihong had explained it so clearly, but this idiot just couldn't figure it out. He was so stupid!

Mo Congrong finally understood. The blood color on his face disappeared immediately and his lips turned grayish white. How did Zhang Weihong know?

"Did you say that? Lu Ye, are you still a human being? If you dare, let's fight one-on-one. What kind of man are you if you do this behind my back?"

Mo Congrong was so angry that he was about to smoke. It must have been that bastard Lu Ye who said it, otherwise how could Zhang Weihong know?

"I didn't tell Zhang Weihong. If I had told her, my parents would have been killed!"

Lu Ye swore solemnly that he did not tell Zhang Weihong and only mentioned it to his own son Qiqi.

"You wish your parents were dead, don't play such a stupid trick in front of me!"

Mo Congrong was too lazy to argue with him. The most urgent thing now was to coax Zhang Weihong. Now that he knew the reason, he would find a way to coax her.

"Believe it or not, it has nothing to do with me anyway, Mo Congrong, if your marriage fails, I can save a red envelope!"

Lu Ye took out a red envelope from his pocket, shook it at him a few times, and walked away nonchalantly.

Mo Congrong’s back teeth were almost broken by biting them, damn it!

********

Lu Ye returned to the family building in a happy mood, humming a song all the way.

"I am a soldier,

Love the country and the people,

The Revolutionary War tested me,

A firmer stance,

Hehehe, hold the gun tightly.

..."

Downstairs in the family building, there were a few women sitting and chatting, and they were busy with work. When they saw Lu Ye coming from afar, their voices suddenly stopped, and the silence at this moment was deafening.

"Why aren't you chatting today?"

Lu Ye parked the car and walked over with the keys in his hand. He had already walked past them, but he still took a few steps back and asked with concern.

They are all like mutes. He can't even hear the gossip he wants to hear. It's boring.

Several women were secretly complaining in their hearts, asking questions even though they knew the answer. There was such a big fuss yesterday, and he actually went to Captain Xu's house this morning and asked Ji Xianglian to empty the urinal. He is a grown man, and the deputy battalion commander at that, but his heart is smaller than a needle tip and he is so shameless. Who dares to offend him?

"There's nothing to talk about, Deputy Battalion Commander Lu. Your cousin just came back and bought a lot of vegetables." Wang Shuhua said with a smile.

Lu Ye's eyes lit up, and he wanted to go back to accompany his wife.

"Keep on talking!"

Lu Ye said with a smile, then took five steps at a time and went upstairs humming a song.

"I heard that he really asked Ji Xianglian to empty the chamber pot this morning? It's amazing that he could do that. He's such a grown man!" a woman said angrily.

"Stop talking, it's not good for others to hear."

Wang Shuhua stopped it. She didn't like gossiping about others behind their backs, nor did she like listening to it.

She didn't flatter Ji Xianglian before, but now that Ji Xianglian is in trouble, she won't step on her. She doesn't have the qualifications to accompany the army and is living in the family building. Her position is a bit awkward. It is better to keep out of trouble and not cause trouble for her husband.

"Everyone went upstairs, I can't hear you..."

The woman who had spoken before wanted to expand on her speech when she heard Lu Ye's voice coming from upstairs: "I heard it. Tomorrow morning I will ask Ji Xianglian to empty the urinal again and say that it was you who asked her to do so. I know your name is Liu Caixia!"

Lu Ye had already walked to the third floor, but his ears and eyes were sharp, and he could hear even the quiet chirping of crickets downstairs clearly.

He was not angry at all, he just wanted to scare this gossipy woman.

Lu Ye hooked his feet on the railing, hanging upside down outside the railing, and yelled to the people below, and the whole building could hear him.

[Wang Shuhua did not have the qualification to accompany the army, but she was still able to live in the family building. This is not made up by the author. The author has checked the information of some veterans and found that there are indeed military wives who live with the army. They also have the qualification to accompany the army. I have checked it. In the 1970s, there were three conditions: deputy battalion commander level, 15 years of military service, and 35 years old. If the deputy battalion commander meets the requirements, the latter two are not considered. If you do not reach the deputy battalion commander level, you must meet the latter two at the same time.]
