Xiao Dan returned for lunch and saw a small creature lying alone on his plate. He asked in confusion:
"Ah Tong, what is this? It smells strange."
Shishi, alert, snatched the little sparrow away and held it in her arms, not letting him see it.
It's so small, not even enough for her to eat a bite.
Xiao Dan raised an eyebrow. Was he planning to hog it all?
"It's roasted sparrow. The little girl is really something. She shot down the sparrow, climbed up to the kitchen roof to pick it up. She's incredibly brave."
Zhang Tong's heart raced at the thought of that scene.
Being around this brat, you never know what she'll do next.
Her heart has been in turmoil these past two days.
Xie Lin was a little embarrassed.
"Sir, I'll take her back after dinner, but we'll still have to trouble your aunt during the day for now."
“The poet is unfamiliar with the area, and I’m afraid she might cause trouble during training or missions.”
"But don't worry, I will teach her some common sense whenever I have time, and try my best to let her learn more so as not to cause trouble for everyone."
There's no shortage of military wives in the family compound, but this guy is a bit of a troublemaker. He's not familiar with the other military wives, so he's hard to entrust to them.
Xiao Dan waved his hand.
"You're exaggerating. Shishi is a very well-behaved girl. Don't worry about leaving her at home."
Most importantly, she made a great contribution to the military.
Liao Songbai and his team chose to act yesterday, which clearly indicates that they had already located the secret documents and were just waiting for the chaos of the night to steal them.
If it weren't for Zhou Shi's appearance, blowing up the bridge would have been a minor matter, and the removal of things from the mountains would have been a minor matter as well. The loss of the team's secrets would have been a major disaster.
This is a hero who took down two battalion commanders as soon as he appeared.
Even if someone is different, we should be tolerant.
The group ate and chatted.
As they chatted, they talked about Zhou Shi's heroic act of raiding the supply and marketing cooperative in his hometown, and a series of events about how he tricked people into getting on the bus, which made the couple laugh heartily.
As the one who was having fun, she chuckled along with everyone else who was laughing heartily.
As he laughed, Xiao Dan suddenly remembered the outcome of Tian Gang's case.
"Xie Lin, Tian Gang has been dismissed, and Fan Rou has also been fired for disrupting a military marriage. She has been sent to a farm in her hometown and will be leaving with Tian Gang and his family in the next couple of days."
"I'm giving you three days off. Keep an eye on the girl and make sure she doesn't get bullied."
Given Zhao Xiao'e's personality, she would definitely point the finger at Xie Lin and his wife.
Xie Lin wasn't worried about anything else, but he was worried that the little girl would be wronged.
"Yes, sir."
Huh, those who got wiped out were all battalion commanders of a regiment.
Xiao Dan belatedly realized this problem, and the "grudge" between the special operations team and the regiment had become much bigger.
His concerns were not unfounded.
Upon learning that Tian Gang was packing up and returning to his hometown, Zhao Xiao'e immediately gave Fan Rou a sound beating, nearly killing her.
She then grabbed a broom and went to the neighbor's yard to vandalize it; the empty house didn't stop her from venting her anger.
The yard, which had just been cleaned, was once again filled with billowing dust.
She even broke off many branches from the mango tree that the previous owner had planted in the corner of the yard.
Still angry after smashing up the yard, he covered his head and ran to the Xiao family's house.
The anger in her heart made her forget that this was not a place for her to run wild.
"Xie Lin, come out here, you bastard! You've been spouting nonsense and harming my son! I'll fight you to the death!"
"Zhou Shi, you slut, you'll die a horrible death."
"I curse you, you idiot, to fall into the sea and drown, to rot in the sea, to be torn apart by fish, to die a gruesome death."
That's really harsh.
To Xie Lin, Zhou Shi was no different from a child, lacking any sense of safety, and the biggest hidden danger was the sea.
Zhao Xiao'e's knife had truly pierced his heart, and his face instantly turned cold.
Since Tian Gang can't teach his mother properly, then he'll teach her for him.
Xiao Dan pulled back the person who was about to go berserk.
"Xie Lin, don't make mistakes for this kind of person. You stay here, I'll go."
"Yes, Xiao Xie, don't listen to that old lady's nonsense. She just doesn't want to go back to the countryside to do farm work and has gone crazy from being so upset." Zhang Tong quickly pressed the person down as well.
Zhao Xiao'e is a typical example of someone who is unreasonable.
This has absolutely nothing to do with Xie Lin and his wife.
Military regulations are strict. Tian Gang's misconduct was his own fault, and he deserved to be stripped of his military rank.
Does that mean that if Xie Lin doesn't expose them, Tian Gang and Fan Rou haven't done anything shady?
What kind of twisted logic is this?
This punishment is already quite lenient; is she still not satisfied?
Shishi didn't understand, and innocently offered up its last remaining, dry, meatless sparrow claw.
"Here, have some rotten egg, it's delicious."
If you eat her Feifei, you have to give her more Feifei.
Xie Lin took it and put it in his mouth to chew, without any disgust. The bones were very fragrant and crispy after being roasted.
He ate tree bark when he was a child, and in special circumstances, he had to eat tree leaves and grass when he was on a mission. Why would he complain about it?
Xiao Dan opened the courtyard gate and looked at the old lady sitting on the ground throwing a tantrum with a dark face.
A crowd of onlookers had gathered around, most of them having been there earlier to watch the spectacle, while others had missed it and joined in later.
Before the gate to the Xiao family's courtyard was opened, gossipers were already chattering in twos and threes.
Upon seeing Xiao Dan, they all immediately turned into quails, but none of them left.
To witness the leader's antics, one must have a strong heart.
Because they wanted to save face for the military and Tian Gang, they didn't publicize their affair.
Since the old lady wasn't going to save face for her son, he didn't bother to hide it anymore.
"Comrade Zhao, we've given you face. If you don't cause trouble, we can all live in peace. But if you continue to cause trouble, it won't be as simple as just going back to your hometown."
“The military court is not just for show. Given your son’s actions, he will be sent to a labor camp. Are you still going to make a scene?”
