He sent Ma Cuifeng away politely.
The corners of Grandma Cai's mouth twitched, and her eyes were so deep that no emotion could be seen.
"She not only invited you, but also me, Sooyoung, and the two neighbors on the left and right."
The Shi family couple had just arrived and couldn't wait to move into the family compound.
If she only invited those military families whose husbands' families had some power, it would become awkward, so Ma Cuifeng was quite smart and invited the neighbors as well.
The military ranks of those two households were lower than that of Political Commissar Shi.
This way, others won't be able to find any mistakes.
It is not difficult to see from the side that Political Commissar Shi is probably a person with a strong personality. This kind of partnership has both advantages and disadvantages -
Easy to fight for power.
"These days, even an old lady like me who stays at home every day has heard of the good reputation of Political Commissar Shi of the 2nd Regiment."
Jiang Ningning's almond-shaped eyes flickered slightly.
Mrs. Cai was giving her a special reminder.
Huo Donglin went out to carry out the mission, and the Second and First Regiment was under the full management of Political Commissar Shi, who did not hesitate to gather their troops.
With her eyelashes drooping, she curled her lips and smiled, "It's better to work with a smart person than a fool."
Yes, Huo Donglin is not very old.
The reason why he was able to climb to the position of group leader was that he fought for it bit by bit with his life, and no one could squeeze him out.
Given his reputation in the base, it would be difficult for Political Commissar Shi to control him.
Jiang Ningning was right.
Sure enough, when Political Commissar Shi came back in the evening, his brows were furrowed so tightly that they could almost pinch a fly to death.
"What happened?" Ma Cuifeng brought a cup of herbal tea with a smile.
After taking a sip of the cooling tea, Political Commissar Shi's expression eased a little. He said, "I just arrived at the training ground this morning, and I saw Huo Donglin already training the soldiers. Tell me, why didn't he say hello in advance when he came back? According to the procedure, he should report to the headquarters first, and then hand over to me. Does he have any objection to me for doing this?"
After hearing her husband's complaints, Ma Cuifeng knew that her husband's habit of nitpicking had come back again, so she gently comforted him, "Didn't you tell me yesterday that the training was too hard and your back injury had recurred, and your body couldn't take it? You two are originally leaders, and Captain Huo will take over his work the next day after returning to the base, so you can relax a lot."
Having said that, Political Commissar Shi still felt uncomfortable.
"Hmph! I hope he'll follow the 'procedures' more often and not launch surprise attacks again."
Ma Cuifeng knew that she couldn't persuade him, so she simply mentioned that she met Jiang Ningning in the middle of the night and invited her to attend her mother-in-law's birthday party.
Upon hearing this, Political Commissar Shi's brows knitted tightly.
Here, he had just said goodbye to Huo Donglin. Over there, his wife invited her lover to come over as a guest.
"It's hard to say whether Xiao Jiang will come or not." Ma Cuifeng sighed: "Her grandmother went to the military region for surgery and couldn't get away. I had to persuade her with all my might."
Political Commissar Shi’s face turned even darker.
The wife was trying to catch up with the Huo family, as if she was inferior to Huo Donglin.
He had originally disagreed with holding birthday parties, believing that it was an unorthodox practice. He would rather rely on his real abilities to gain a foothold in the military region.
Ma Cuifeng took one look and knew that her husband's old habit of being pedantic had come back, so she explained to him: "After all, Huo Donglin is your partner, you can't invite others. If you don't invite his lover, I don't know if you think our Shi family is narrow-minded."
"Okay, you decide." Political Commissar Shi held his breath.
He turned around and started complaining to his mother.
As she got older, she became a bit superstitious. Aunt Shi couldn't help but complain that her daughter-in-law was not thoughtful enough.
That Captain Huo doesn't get along with his son, and his father is undergoing surgery at home. Isn't this a natural conflict with the Shi family?
But the invitation had already been sent out and there was no room for maneuver. Aunt Shi could only pray secretly every day that the Huo family would not come to bring bad luck.
The other side.
The atmosphere in the Huo family was completely the opposite.
"Political Commissar Shi is honest, has good character, and is good at doing things." Huo Donglin made an objective evaluation.
Without mentioning a word, some unpleasantness broke out between him and Political Commissar Shi at the training ground.
He sticks to the facts and won't bring his work emotions home.
The wife also needs normal social interaction. Huo Donglin said, "Go if you want to. Don't worry about me."
"I work hard behind the scenes so that you and the children don't have to live by other people's wishes."
Once a man gets wise, his sweet words are sweeter than honey in a jar.
The children in the room were already asleep. Jiang Ningning felt a little itchy, so she took a step forward and boldly sat on his lap.
Waves of subtle fragrance went straight into Huo Donglin's nose.
He paused, then stretched out his long arm, and the couple immediately hugged each other tightly.
Needless to say, when the relationship was about to get serious, Huo Donglin suddenly remembered: "There are no more family planning supplies."
Jiang Ningning was so angry that she kicked him.
Huo Donglin caught it in his hand and kissed it on the lips.
As luck would have it, this scene was seen by Manman who had just gotten up to go to the bathroom.
From his perspective, Heidan’s father was about to eat his mother’s feet.
“Ouch—”
It rushed over like a small cannonball and hit Huo Donglin's waist.
Click!
Huo Donglin's waist was twisted!
The next day, Huo Donglin endured the pain and completed a whole day of training.
After the operation, I went to the infirmary to apply some plasters and bought several boxes of hygiene products.
The military doctor thought of the rumor of "seven times a night" and tactfully advised: "Although you are young, you still need to be moderate in sexual intercourse."
Huo Donglin's face turned grim.
Before he could explain, the military doctor fled in fear.
What's worse is that the news was heard by Sun Xiangqian who had just stepped into the infirmary. Then, it spread throughout the military region overnight.
For several days afterwards, Political Commissar Shi looked at him as if his eyes were not eyes and his nose were not nose.
Huo Donglin has a bad and stubborn temper, but he always sticks to the facts and never thinks about other aspects.
Until one day, Mr. Sun found him.
"Old Chief, what is it that you are looking for me so urgently?"
Huo Donglin was originally training at the shooting range when he was suddenly called over because of an emergency.
"Nothing, just take this back." Old Sun pointed to the cloth bag on the table, then lowered his head and took a sip of tea uncomfortably.
Huo Donglin was completely confused and opened his cloth bag on the spot.
Take a closer look.
This is a bottle of medicinal wine.
There is nothing wrong with the medicinal wine. Every soldier has some injuries and needs the help of medicinal wine to massage the blood stasis.
The problem is that the bottle contains eucommia, epimedium, wolfberry, eucommia, deer antler, and cistanche.
These medicinal herbs have a common effect - nourishing the kidney and strengthening yang!
Huo Donglin endured it again and again, and put it back expressionlessly: "Thank you for your kindness, old chief. I'm fine. Good things should be left to those who need them more."
For example, Sun Xiangqian, who has a big mouth.
Because of wanting to have a child, he seems to be in poor health recently.
Mr. Sun put his fist to his lips and coughed twice, then glanced at his waist with an expression that said "don't be so stubborn".
Huo Donglin explained helplessly: "I was hit by Manman, which caused my waist to be sprained."
Old Sun didn't believe it: "But last time you said the kang had collapsed..."
How could the kang collapse for no reason?
As a man, everyone knows what they should know.
“…”
Huo Donglin was speechless for a moment.
The office fell into silence, and the atmosphere became increasingly awkward.
Elder Sun changed the subject and said, "But for you, a little habit of being addicted to gentle things is actually a good thing."
