The guard, Xiao Zheng, stood at the office door. He didn't know what they were talking about inside, but he could tell from Xie Hao's dejected expression when he came out that it wasn't a good thing.
He had heard about what happened at the camp gate with his own ears, and he simply assumed the other party deserved it.
Deputy Regiment Commander Xie has worked so hard; he climbed to his current position step by step through sheer hard work. To find someone like that to disgust people and imply that he got involved through connections—who else would they target if not you?
Little did Xie Hao know that he had only asked Zeng Youlan to annoy Xie Lin out of a moment of anger, to let the other party know that his status was no higher than his own, nothing more. He never expected that things would backfire so badly.
Sending him and his family to the northern border was euphemistically called "supporting" and even a promotion, but what difference was there between that and being demoted?
Lou Xiaomin dragged her exhausted body home, only to hear this devastating news.
"Why, why did this happen? Ah Hao, what do we do? It's so cold, I can't stand it."
“They are settling personal scores under the guise of their official duties. We can report this to the General Military Region.”
She used to long to become the wife of the deputy regiment commander, but now that she has achieved it, she is so resistant to it.
The northern border.
Even if she didn't understand, she knew that it was not a safe place. Not only was the environment harsh, but she would also be frequently disturbed, and she might even lose her life there.
"There's a second option: be sent down to a farm. You choose." Xie Hao said weakly.
What can you do if you don't have any connections?
With the Feng family gone and the Xie family gone, people from both families are avoiding them like the plague and would never offer a helping hand.
Report it to higher authorities?
I'm afraid you won't even need to choose; it will automatically select the second option for you.
He regretted it; he shouldn't have argued with Xie Lin just to save face.
If he behaves himself, even if he can't get promoted here, he can still keep his position as battalion commander as long as he takes on more missions. It's still better than going to the border to be a deputy regimental commander.
They clearly used their position to settle a personal score, yet no one could find any fault with them.
Given his family's circumstances, any slight disturbance could lead to certain doom.
One wrong step leads to another.
It's all Xie Miao's fault for having the wild idea of marrying Lu Fan.
Even when the Feng family was still in power, the Lu family looked down on her. Now that the Feng family is down on its luck, they look down on her even less. Why didn't she recognize reality?
If he hadn't embarrassed himself that day, why would he have tried to disgust Xie Lin out of embarrassment?
If that hadn't happened, he could still have stayed peacefully on the island.
The neighbors next door were arguing, but they were unaware of what was happening; some were training, and others were going to school.
"Little Fatty, what are you doing?"
As soon as I entered the school, I saw Little Fatty crouching under the classroom window with his butt sticking out.
That's a second-grade classroom, Little Fatty's class. Why didn't he go in?
"Shh~" The chubby boy pressed his finger to his lips and waved to them, signaling them to bend down and look.
Are there any fun things to do?
Several dogs immediately shrank back and crept closer.
Little Fatty stuck his head up, and Shishi copied him, but before they could see anything fun, someone hit them on the head.
Oh, it's Little Fatty's head that's being hit.
He didn't dare to knock on Shishi's door.
She's someone with connections, and she's also the queen who gave him treats.
"What are you looking at? Haven't you ever seen someone do your homework for you before?" the boy said guiltily.
Homework writing service?
I have never seen Shishi before.
How do you offer essay writing services?
The boy was speechless.
He had to hand in homework during class, and if he couldn't write it, he would ask an older girl in a higher grade to do it for him.
They came early so they could do their homework, but little Fatty, that rascal, was also there early, bringing so many people to watch him make a fool of himself.
Once discovered, Little Fatty stopped hiding and stood up confidently.
"Your Majesty, he is my cousin, a month older than me. The woman inside is my cousin who is in third grade. My cousin is stupid and can't do his homework, so he asks his sister to do it for him."
"Because he often didn't hand in his homework when he was in first grade, my uncle would beat him a lot, and he was so scared that he cheated."
Little Fatty was gloating.
"You're talking nonsense. I just asked my sister to help me with my homework. I didn't cheat."
In his subconscious, cheating on exams is what he considers cheating.
He didn't do well on the test, but he wouldn't cheat; he's a good student.
I learned a new word, and Shishi is quite interested in it.
“Your sister wrote it for you but you still can’t do it. Why don’t you have your sister read it to you and you write it down? That way you’ll hear it once and write it down once, and you’ll be more likely to learn it. Next time you won’t need your sister to write it for you.”
The Queen is intelligent and logical.
Little Fatty's cousin's eyes lit up. "That's right, how come I never thought of that?"
Little Fatty commented seriously, "Because you have no brains."
"Little Fatty," my cousin gritted his teeth.
The chubby boy stuck out his tongue and said, "I'm here, you don't need to shout, I can hear you."
"Your Majesty, never mind him, class hasn't started yet. I know a place with general bugs that make a really loud noise at night. Do you want to catch one and play with it?"
What is a "general insect"?
"They're little insects that chirp and cricket. If you put two together, they'll fight, which is really fun."
Can fighting with small insects be as fun as fighting with big insects?
To verify what Xiaopang said was fun, a large group of people headed to the area where the pandanus trees were clustered, right behind the school wall.
"No chirping." Shishi listened intently but didn't hear any insect chirping. Instead, she saw several creatures hopping around.
"Your Majesty, they only crow at night, or during cockfights."
Xingxing has played it and really enjoys playing it.
"Little Fatty, did you bring your knife? We need to weave two small cages, otherwise we won't have anything to put in them if we catch them."
Pandanus trees are covered in thorns, and it hurts a lot when they prick you; you can't break off the leaves without a knife.
