Chapter 48 Don't be afraid, we don't eat people
After hearing what she said, Qian Lan also felt that it was necessary.
"If you want to report it, go to the top leader and report it. Let's see who dares to spread rumors again. Let's see who dares to spread rumors again!"
Yu Hui left the family compound empty-handed and headed straight for the camp. Along the way, people were pointing and talking at her back.
When she arrived at the camp gate, the soldier standing guard stopped her.
"Comrade, who are you looking for?"
Yu Hui thought for a moment and said, "I'll look for the most senior leader in our military region."
The soldier frowned. "The most important leader in our military region is the division commander. What do you want to do with him?"
"I have a great grievance, and I want to ask him to make the decision."
The soldier looked Yu Hui up and down. What a great injustice?
In all the years he had been in the military region, this was the first time he had seen someone come to Division Commander Zhan to complain and make the decision.
"What's your name? Where are you from?"
"My name is Yu Hui. I live in the family compound. I'm the wife of Gu Huai, the commander of the Sixth Battalion."
Captain Gu’s wife? The soldier’s eyes widened. He knew Captain Gu. He was the best soldier in their military region and had won first-class merit.
Captain Gu went to Beijing to study. How wronged could his wife be to be taking care of the children at home that she would come to complain to Division Commander Zhan?
The soldier returned to the guard post with doubts in his mind and called the camp office.
The person who answered the phone went to the conference room after finishing the call.
At this time, Division Commander Zhan is still holding a small meeting with several leaders of the military region.
The meeting had just ended, so the operator walked straight in.
"Commander Zhan, there are military relatives outside the barracks looking for you."
Division Commander Zhan Beifang is over fifty years old and has slightly gray hair on his temples, but he has not gained weight and is still tall and strong. He trains regularly.
"A military family member is looking for me?" This is the first time that a military family member has come to see me.
The political commissars and regimental commanders who were originally planning to leave sat back down after hearing this.
They also wanted to know what this military family member wanted from the division commander.
"Yes, it's from the family of Captain Gu of the Sixth Battalion. She said she has a big grievance and wants to ask you to make the decision."
"Isn't this ridiculous?" Political Commissar Gao frowned. "If the military families have any problems, they should go to the Women's Affairs Director. Why did they come to the barracks?"
As he spoke, he looked at the deputy head Zhou Weimin.
Zhou Weimin was also very puzzled. He had heard Tieying talk about Xiaoyu at home, saying that she had problems with her thinking and would make mistakes sooner or later.
I haven't heard anything special about it, so why did you come to the camp to look for Division Commander Zhan today?
Is there anything that Tieying, the director of the Women's Affairs Office, cannot solve?
Division Commander Zhan raised his hand and waved, saying in a deep voice, "The military families have come to me for a decision. They must have been greatly wronged. Even the Women's Director can't solve this matter."
"Go and bring the person in." Commander Zhan said to his orderly.
"Okay, Chief."
"Don't leave yet, sit down and listen." Commander Zhan said to the others.
Political Commissar Gao and others: We have no plans to leave either.
Yu Hui followed the orderly into the camp's office building.
This office building is called a building, but it only has four floors. In front of the building is a training ground where soldiers are training.
When entering the office building, everyone they meet will stare at Yu Hui curiously.
Commander Zhan and his men were in the conference room on the second floor. When they reached the door, the orderly pushed open the door and led Yu Hui in.
"Come in."
When Yu Hui walked into the conference room and saw so many senior leaders, she was still stunned by the aura they exuded, and her breath was held.
My hands subconsciously clenched my trouser legs, my heart beat faster, and I was very nervous.
These people have actually been on the battlefield, fought bloody battles, defended their country, and have sat in this position because of their military merits.
Facing them, Yu Hui felt nervous but also in awe and admiration.
Zhan Beifang noticed her nervousness and said with a warm smile, "Don't be nervous, little comrade. Don't be afraid. We don't eat people."
Yu Hui took a deep breath and said, "I know that the leaders are all heroes who defend our country. I am not afraid of them. I only respect and admire you."
There was a flash of surprise in Commander Zhan's eyes. He didn't expect her to say that.
Political Commissar Gao and others also smiled.
"I heard you have a grievance and want to ask me for help?"
"Yes." Yu Hui nodded vigorously. "Someone spread rumors to defame the military families and the soldiers in our barracks."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present changed their expressions.
"Comrade, tell us what happened." Commander Zhan looked at Yu Hui and said.
Yu Hui cleared her throat and repeated to Commander Zhan and the others the whole story of the rumor that Qian Lan had told her.
"...I don't know. A soldier from my battalion commander Gu's battalion was kind enough to help me deliver something home. I invited him to have some food and some water. But that was the wrong place. Such a vicious rumor was made up."
"They say rumors can destroy and kill a person. If my Captain Gu comes back and hears these rumors, and wants to divorce me, wouldn't that be like asking for my life?"
"And Platoon Leader Wu Hai, if his future is affected by rumors, wouldn't that ruin a good and helpful soldier?" Yu Hui said with deep sorrow.
"This is not just a smear on me and the soldiers, but also on our entire military region. The circumstances are extremely egregious, and the impact is extremely serious."
The expressions of Commander Zhan and others became increasingly grim.
This is a military district, and the people living in the military district’s family compound are all officers’ families, so they should have their own thoughts and be aware.
In such a place, such rumors targeting military families and soldiers in the barracks were actually spread. Just as Comrade Xiao Yu said, the circumstances are extremely bad and the impact is extremely serious.
The morals of those who spread rumors are also extremely corrupt.
Deputy Political Commissar Wu Jianguo looked at Yu Hui and said, "Xiao Yu, you've been wronged in this matter, but for matters like this, you should first consult Director Sun of the Women's Federation."
He has been at home these two days and has not heard his teacher Li and mother-in-law talk about this.
If he heard about it, he would definitely ask Director Sun to come out and stop the spread of rumors in time.
Yu Hui smiled somewhat sadly. "It's not that I didn't want to find Director Sun. I just found out this morning that someone had spread rumors about me and Platoon Leader Wu Hai. It's thanks to Director Sun that I found out."
"Did Director Sun tell you?" Wu Jianguo asked.
Yu Hui: "I was walking home from the grocery store this morning after getting some oil when I ran into Director Sun. She stopped me and started giving me a beating. She told me to be mindful of my influence and not mess around at home and bring shame upon my Captain Gu."
Upon hearing this, Division Commander Zhan and the others looked at Deputy Regiment Commander Zhou, their expressions clearly asking: How does your wife do her job as the director of women's affairs?
When you hear someone spreading rumors, don't first ask the person involved about the situation, but directly draw their attention to the impact. Don't make a fuss.
Doesn't this mean that she, as the director of the Women's Department, believed the rumors that slandered military families and soldiers in the barracks without any factual evidence?
