Chapter 386 Give Her a Chance
Zhou Tao frowned and chased after Ma Jiaojiao.
Ma Jiaojiao heard the footsteps behind her and a smug smile appeared on her lips. She knew Zhou Tao would not ignore her.
When they came to the river, Ma Jiaojiao closed her eyes and was about to jump into the river. She grew up in the countryside and could swim since she was a child. Even if she really jumped into the river, she would not die.
Zhou Tao hugged Ma Jiaojiao, "Stop making trouble!"
Ma Jiaojiao struggled and pushed him, "You are going to divorce me, why do you care about me? Let me go and let me die, let me go, I don't want to see you again..."
More and more people were watching the excitement.
Zhou Tao had no choice but to compromise, "Okay, I won't divorce you, please stop making trouble, okay?" If something really happened to her, he would be blamed.
Ma Jiaojiao's eyes lit up, and she looked at Zhou Tao crying, "Are you serious..."
Zhou Tao sighed for a long time, took Ma Jiaojiao's hand, "Let's go back to the family compound."
"Okay." Ma Jiaojiao smiled, put her arm around Zhou Tao's arm, and walked towards the family compound with him.
Sister-in-law Liu and Sister-in-law Lihua were chatting in the yard. When they saw Zhou Tao coming back with Ma Jiaojiao, they were both surprised.
"Captain Zhou, is this your wife? Or your sister?" Sister-in-law Lihua looked at Ma Jiaojiao.
Zhou Tao pursed his lips and said, "Daughters-in-law."
"Hello, sisters-in-law! My name is Ma Jiaojiao. I'm new here and I don't know anything. Please take care of me in the future." Ma Jiaojiao smiled well and greeted the two. Now she had to make Zhou Tao give up the idea of divorcing her, so she must leave a good impression on everyone.
"Okay." Sisters-in-law Liu and Lihua nodded with a smile.
"Sisters-in-law, we'll go first." Zhou Tao didn't want to say anything more now. Tomorrow he would take Ma Jiaojiao to apologize to Brigadier General Lu and his wife.
"Goodbye, sisters-in-law!" Ma Jiaojiao smiled and waved to the two, then followed Zhou Tao and walked towards the stairs. Zhou Tao told her that the housing he applied for was a tube-shaped building, where many military families lived together.
After the two left,
Lihua and Liu chatted again.
"She doesn't look like she has encountered such a thing. Could she have made a mistake?"
"Who knows? But did you see the look on Captain Zhou's face? He used to smile when he saw people, but now he always looks worried. Something must have happened."
"That's true."
"What are you talking about?" Jiang's sister-in-law came over with the vegetables she had just picked.
"We are talking about Captain Zhou and his wife. Captain Zhou's wife came to the military family compound."
"Captain Zhou's wife is here? What does she look like? Is that true?"
"She is quite enthusiastic, but Captain Zhou doesn't seem very happy." As for his appearance, they didn't see it clearly.
Ma Jiaojiao followed Zhou Tao back home. When she saw the furnishings in the house, she frowned slightly. This was completely different from what she had imagined. There was not even a decent appliance in the house.
After taking a look at Zhou Tao, Ma Jiaojiao swallowed the complaint that was about to come out of her mouth. The most important thing now was to cultivate her relationship with Zhou Tao. When he couldn't leave her anymore, she would slowly deal with him.
Ma Jiaojiao walked forward and reached out to unbutton Zhou Tao's clothes, smiling at him coquettishly, "Ah Tao, I was wrong, please forgive me, I will listen to you in the future." Zhou Tao stretched out his hand
to push Ma Jiaojiao away, and said lightly, "Go take a shower first." Ma Jiaojiao had been detained in the police station for the past few days and had not taken a shower. The sweat odor on her body was even stronger than his after training.
Ma Jiaojiao was stunned, as if she had thought of something, and hurriedly ran towards the house.
After entering the room and coming to the closet, Ma Jiaojiao was stunned when she saw herself in the mirror. Her hair was messy, her face was covered with dust, and there were a few white marks at the corners of her eyes, which were obviously left when she cried just now.
"Ah~" Ma Jiaojiao screamed in despair.
Zhou Tao heard the sound in the room, frowned slightly, and continued to write the report in his hand.
Ma Jiaojiao took the clothes, went to the bathroom to take a shower, and walked out. She didn't see Zhou Tao, and saw that the light was on in the study, so she walked in.
Seeing Zhou Tao writing something at the desk, Ma Jiaojiao walked over, "Ah Tao."
Zhou Tao put down his pen, put the report into the drawer, turned to look at Ma Jiaojiao, "Ma Jiaojiao, tomorrow you come with me to the home of Brigade Commander Lu."
"Oh, OK." Ma Jiaojiao nodded, "Then should we prepare any gifts?" The Brigade Commander is a high-ranking official. If she can get along well with the Brigade Commander's wife, she won't have to worry about Zhou Tao divorcing her in the future.
Zhou Tao thought for a while, "Just bring some cakes and candies." The army has its own rules. If he brings something too expensive, not only will it cause gossip, but it will also make Brigade Commander Lu have a bad impression of him. Although Brigade Commander Lu and his wife already had a bad impression of them, he didn't want it to get worse.
"Okay, I got it." Ma Jiaojiao nodded in agreement. But she was thinking in her heart that she would take the gold necklace to the Brigade Commander's wife tomorrow. When the Brigade Commander's wife was happy, she would have a backer in the future.
Thinking of Ling Yao and Lu Qingyun, a trace of cruelty flashed in her eyes. When she settled down in the family compound, she would definitely settle accounts with the couple, and she would also let them taste the feeling of being detained.
"What are you thinking about?" Zhou Tao called Ma Jiaojiao several times, but Ma Jiaojiao did not respond.
Ma Jiaojiao came back to her senses, "I was just thinking, should I make some more steamed bread tomorrow and bring it with me?"
Zhou Tao heard this, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised, "No need, just bring the cakes and candies we bought when we came here." Feeling that Ma Jiaojiao was really changing, he also planned to give her a chance to see how she would perform in the future, and then decide whether to submit the divorce report.
"Okay, I'll listen to you." Ma Jiaojiao walked forward, sat on Zhou Tao's lap, and flirted with him with a coquettish face, "A Tao, do you want me..."
Zhou Tao was a little distracted, but he still pushed Ma Jiaojiao away, "I'm too tired today, let's talk about it another day."
After that, he got up and walked out of the study and walked towards the bathroom.
Ma Jiaojiao stomped her feet in anger. Zhou Tao, you wait for me! One day I will make you kneel down at my feet and beg me.
The night passed in a flash, the red sun gradually rose in the sky, the sunlight fell on the earth, and took away the coolness of the morning.
Ling Yao walked out of the yard. She planned to go to the town to buy some meat and vegetables. It was not as convenient as Beijing. No matter what she wanted to buy, she had to go to the town.
She walked out of the family yard with a basket and stood on the roadside waiting for the bus.
Several military wives came up to her and greeted her with a smile, "Sister Ling Yao, are you going to buy vegetables too?"
