Chen Jiao looked at Tong Dayi and his wife Yang Meifeng who came in with Lu Zhengxu. Although she was a little surprised, she quickly welcomed them in.
"Brother Tong, sister-in-law, please come in and sit down."
Tong Dayi and Yang Meifeng smiled a little embarrassedly when they saw Chen Jiao. When Lu Zhengxu walked in, his face looked very bad.
Tong Dayi rubbed his hands and said awkwardly: "Sister-in-law, we two won't sit down. We are here to apologize to you this time."
When Chen Jiao heard this, she knew that they must have come because of what happened to Tong Xiaolan in the shopping car today.
Before Chen Jiao could speak, Lu Zhengxu looked at Tong Dayi and said in a deep voice, "Come in with me."
Tong Dayi was so nervous that he followed Lu Zhengxu into the study room with his hands and feet trembling.
Yang Meifeng then looked at Chen Jiao with an apologetic look on her face, "Jiaojiao, I'm really sorry, my sister-in-law's mouth is really..."
"Sister-in-law, I've already told you in the car that I won't care. Did this incident trigger anything else?" Chen Jiao asked Yang Meifeng nervously.
Yang Meifeng nodded with a look of annoyance, "Someone wrote a letter of denunciation, reporting what Xiaolan said in the car to the political commissar of the division headquarters."
Chen Jiao: ...
When she was in the car, she already had a premonition that someone would make a fuss about this matter.
Although the environment in the army is much simpler than that outside, as the saying goes, a soldier who does not want to be a general is not a good soldier.
There are only so many officer positions in the army, and everyone wants to move up, so some intrigue is inevitable.
"Sister-in-law, is the problem resolved now?" Chen Jiao asked anxiously.
Yang Meifeng nodded. "It was solved, but it caused Captain Lu to be scolded along with our old Tong. The political commissar also asked Captain Lu to strengthen the ideological work of the entire battalion."
Shen Jiao breathed a sigh of relief, "It's good that it's solved."
"Alas!" Yang Meifeng sighed, "Fortunately it didn't affect Captain Lu's future."
As to whether her husband's future has been affected, it is still unknown.
Anyway, because of the two times that Tong Xiaolan couldn't control her mouth, the leader must have a bad impression of Tong Dayi.
Chen Jiao and Yang Meifeng were not very familiar with each other. After they finished talking about what was happening, they had nothing to say and just sat there in silence.
After thinking for a while, Shen Jiao said to Yang Meifeng: "Sister-in-law, I want to ask you, is Tong Xiaolan so outspoken because she is hostile to me, or is she like this to everyone?"
"Alas!" Yang Meifeng sighed again and said with a wry smile: "Jiaojiao, she has caused you trouble twice. I won't hide it from you, she thinks she has studied in high school and is educated, so she looks down on everyone and talks to everyone like this.
During the time she was here, his brother and I followed her around every day, apologizing to people on her behalf and cleaning up the mess she made. ”
"Then have you ever thought about sending her back to her hometown?" Chen Jiao couldn't help but ask.
Yang Meifeng looked even more embarrassed and painful, and sighed, "Why didn't you think about it? Just yesterday, Dayi asked his mother to take his sister back. Otherwise, his future would be ruined sooner or later by his sister's bad mouth."
"His mother was quite reasonable and agreed to go back. But his sister cried, made a scene and threatened to go back but refused to leave. Last night, after they said they were going back, she found some pesticide and drank it. She drank half a basin of soapy water before vomiting it out.
Her brother was worried, so he asked her mother to take her to the city to see a doctor today. I was supposed to go with her, but something happened and I was delayed..."
Yang Meifeng was annoyed. "If I had known this would happen, I should have gone with her, and I wouldn't have let her cause such trouble again!"
"Her brother was a soldier. He risked his life for so many years and relied on Captain Lu's care to earn the position of deputy battalion commander. Now he has been troubled by her several times..."
Once Yang Meifeng opened her mouth, she couldn't help but pour out all the bitterness in her heart.
Shen Jiao didn't even have a chance to interrupt, and it was difficult for her to say anything.
No wonder Tong Xiaolan looked so pale when she got in the car this morning, and she had no energy to bother her. It turned out that she had attempted suicide last night.
Every family has its own problems.
However, no matter how difficult this sutra is to recite, each family has to recite it on their own.
Tong Xiaolan acted so extreme. If she had come up with an idea and failed to implement it, and Tong Xiaolan committed suicide, she would be the murderer.
Yang Meifeng didn't want to make it difficult for Chen Jiao to give her advice. She just kept it in for a while and told Chen Jiao when she couldn't hold it in any longer.
After she finished speaking, she smiled apologetically, "Jiaojiao, look at my mouth. I can't stop talking about the bad things at home."
She rubbed her hands in embarrassment, and told Shen Jiao very embarrassedly: "Jiaojiao, please keep my family affairs secret for me. My sister-in-law is still young and has to get married. If these things get out..."
If these things were to get out, I'm afraid no family would dare to marry Tong Xiaolan, who is prone to committing suicide.
Chen Jiao nodded, "Sister-in-law, don't worry, I know the severity of the situation."
At this time, the door of the study opened.
When Lu Zhengxu and Tong Dayi came out of the room, Yang Meifeng immediately stood up nervously.
Tong Dayi saluted Lu Zhengxu at the door of the study, "Thank you, Battalion Commander!"
After that, the couple left together. Chen Jiao wanted to keep them for dinner, but they declined.
As soon as Tong Dayi and his wife left, Lu Zhengxu's expression changed immediately.
The majestic look on his face disappeared, leaving only a gentle look.
Especially when he and Shen Jiao were serving dishes in the kitchen, he found an opportunity to steal a kiss on Shen Jiao's face.
Chen Jiao: ...
Fortunately, the two children didn't see it.
While eating, Chen Jiao asked Lu Zhengxu, "Brother Xu, were you talking about Brother Tong's sister in the study just now?"
This matter is somewhat related to Chen Jiao.
Lu Zhengxu didn't hide it and nodded, "Well, if he can't teach his sister to be careful with her words and actions, he must send his sister back home."
Chen Jiao thought about it for a while and told Lu Zhengxu about Tong Xiaolan's attempt to commit suicide in order not to return to her hometown.
After listening to this, Lu Zhengxu frowned for a moment, but didn't say anything else.
At night, as long as Lu Zhengxu is free, he will be the one to coax the baby to sleep.
When he returned to the room, he saw Shen Jiao concentrating on looking at an intricately carved jade sculpture on the desk.
Under the dim incandescent light, the jade carving shone brightly, and it was obvious at first glance that it was not a simple thing.
Even if he doesn't understand cultural relics, he knows that such things are very rare, and those that have been passed down are all national treasures.
Where did my wife get this thing?
