"What...what do you mean...I didn't do anything. It's none of my business! It was Chen Lina who heard that Su Wenbin's death was related to you, so she came to make trouble with you. It has nothing to do with me!" Zhu Qiaozhen turned around and left.

However, Gu Weicheng blocked her way with a quick step and said sternly, "I haven't told you what it is yet, but you know it clearly. It seems that it is not as you said. Please come with us!"

Zhu Qiaozhen looked at Gu Weicheng with a serious expression and felt dizzy. There was only one sentence in her mind: It's over!

Finally, Zhu Qiaozhen was taken to the brigade commander's office.

In front of everyone, Gu Weicheng explained the situation to the brigade commander.

Not long after, Captain Fu was also called in. When he heard what Zhu Qiaozhen had done, he was so angry that his face turned black, and he was about to hit Zhu Qiaozhen in front of the leader, but was stopped by the orderly.

Seeing that her man not only did not speak for her but also beat her in front of so many people, Zhu Qiaozhen was so angry that she burst into tears and said aggrievedly: "Then who am I doing this for? Isn't it for you? How old are you? You will be 45 next year. If you can't get promoted this year, you will have to change your job!

You have been a soldier for almost your whole life, do you want to retire? You sigh every night because of this matter, do you think I don't know what you are worried about?

How old is Captain Gu? He is a dozen years younger than you! I'm leaving the promotion opportunity to you this time. It's not like he won't be able to get promoted in the future. Isn't it just a matter of a few years later?"

"You stupid woman, what are you talking about!" Captain Fu cursed again in anger, but the slap was not directed at Zhu Qiaozhen after all.

He just slapped himself hard in the face and sighed heavily.

After all this commotion, everything was made clear.

The reason why Zhu Qiaozhen instigated Chen Lina to cause trouble for Gu Weicheng was to have a negative impact on him so that the promotion quota would fall on Captain Fu. After all, among the captains of various groups, Gu Weicheng had made the most contributions during this period and was the most likely to be promoted.

Moreover, Gu Weicheng has been the regiment commander for five years. If he were not too young and had been promoted two levels too quickly five years ago, he would not have been the regiment commander for five years. He is turning 30 this year, so no matter how you look at it, he should be the candidate for chief of staff.

Although the incident was caused by Zhu Qiaozhen, Captain Fu failed to discipline his family members, which caused such a bad influence, and the army reprimanded him.

Zhu Qiaozhen works in the logistics department of the army. The logistics department also criticized Zhu Qiaozhen and cancelled her advanced title this year.

The deputy regiment commander was supposed to retire next year, but he was punished before the retirement, which will affect his job assignment when he retires. After all, the job assignment when retiring also depends on the soldier's performance in the army. The higher the position and the better the performance, the better the job assigned.

Zhu Qiaozhen is shooting herself in the foot.

Everyone left the brigade commander's office, and Gu Weicheng was left behind.

The brigade commander said to him, "Do you have any idea about promotion?"

Gu Weicheng said with a serious expression: "Report to the brigade commander, I will obey the organization's arrangements in everything!"

"Okay, get ready to go out." The brigade commander waved his hand, lowered his head and started drinking tea.

Gu Weicheng immediately understood the meaning of the brigade commander's words. It seemed that the organization really intended to promote him.

Over the years, he has performed very well whether on missions or in military training. Gu Weicheng has a clear conscience and is ready for his promotion. But no matter what notice the organization gives, he will accept it.

He nodded, turned and left the office, closing the door behind him.

While Li Xia was waiting for Gu Weicheng outside, Chen Lina apologized to her.

"After I finish taking care of Old Su's funeral and return to Su City, I probably won't have the chance to come to the army again. There's something that has been weighing on my mind for a long time, and I want to apologize to you in person while I can.

In fact, I also knew that Su Wenyan wanted to poison you with a venomous snake. When I came back from buying groceries that day, I heard the quarrel between the two siblings. I advised Lao Su to report what Su Wenyan had done to the organization, but Lao Su chose to keep it secret because of the brother-sister relationship.

At that time, I thought about whether I should report this matter to the organization or tell you and Captain Gu, but because of a moment's change of mind, I was afraid that Lao Su would be angry with me if he knew that I did this without telling him, so I left a letter and left.

When I learned that Lao Su was expelled from the army and died, I blamed myself. If I had reported Su Wenyan directly at that time, things would not have turned out like this. "

In fact, Li Xia had already guessed that Chen Lina left the army because she knew that Su Wenyan was planning to release poisonous snakes, but she never blamed Chen Lina.

It is indeed difficult to be in Chen Lina's position. Not everyone has the courage to sacrifice their own relatives for the sake of justice. Chen Lina also has a lot of things to consider.

At that time, she had no way of predicting the current outcome. All she could say is that life is unpredictable.

…

A few days later, news came out that Gu Weicheng was promoted to Chief of Staff.

When Hu Songlin heard the news, he immediately patted him on the shoulder and said, "That's great, Lao Gu. You are a 30-year-old chief of staff. It's true that people will die when compared with others, and goods will be thrown away when compared with others. I don't know how many years it will take for me to take your position.

You said you wanted to drink at my wedding, but you ended up drinking at yours. You can't deny this meal, today, I'll ask my mother-in-law to save some good meat for us, I'll bring it to your house, and please help your sister-in-law cook something delicious for us!"

Gu Weicheng glanced at Hu Songlin and thought, "Tsk, look at this guy, he's so arrogant. He hasn't even gotten married yet, but he's already invited his mother-in-law."

He took Hu Songlin's hand from his shoulder and said, "You have been promoted to regiment commander, so don't act like you are so pathetic."

With this promotion, Gu Weicheng was promoted to chief of staff, and the position of regiment commander became vacant. Hu Songlin was also promoted to regiment commander. It was truly a double blessing for Hu Songlin.

Hu Songlin chuckled, touched his nose and said, "You are not as high-ranking as me, right? Besides, I provide the ingredients, right? It's not too much for my sister-in-law to provide the cooking skills?"

However, since Gu Weicheng has been promoted, he does have to treat everyone to a meal.

But a lot of things happened during this period, and it was not convenient to invite too many people, so we only invited Captain Ma and Deputy Captain Yan, and we all had a meal together.

After An An learned that his father had been promoted to Chief of Staff, he asked a lot of questions about military positions, such as why his father was promoted to Chief of Staff instead of Deputy Brigade Commander? Didn't his father say before that the brigade is behind the regiment, and the division is behind the brigade?

Also, when will dad get promoted next time?

It really seems to have become a hundred thousand whys.

Gu Weicheng didn't feel annoyed at all and patiently explained to his son.

When Li Xia was free, she accompanied Zhou Yunxing to the supply and marketing cooperative to choose clothes, but they couldn't find the right one after choosing. Finally, Li Xia suggested that they buy a piece of red cloth and make a set of clothes themselves.

Although Li Xia did not study fashion design, she had seen many styles of clothes and could give some suggestions on styles, so she helped with the design. Since Mrs. Tao had a sewing machine at home, she took the initiative to suggest that she make the clothes.

After several revisions, the clothes turned out to be really nice.

At least it is more special than the clothes styles currently on the market, and it looks good on Zhou Yunxing.

Unexpectedly, when Gu Weicheng came back that day, he brought back a surprising news - Deputy Captain Tong was getting married.
