Why has it changed now?
"Dad," Mo Youyou softened her voice, went over and hugged Mo Cheng's arm, and said coquettishly, "I'm sorry, I was just being a little rude. I was just anxious!"
"Isn't it obvious what Lu Zhengjun means by leading the vote for others?"
"Just like when we went on a mission in the desert, it was such a bad mission, and instead of recommending anyone else, they specifically recommended Dekai. This is targeted!"
"Dad, you have to stand up for Dekai. They've been bullied like this."
"Youyou, things aren't as simple as you think." Mo Cheng started thinking about it as soon as he got home. There was something unusual about what happened today.
Lu Zhengjun didn't side with Liu Dekai; he understood, after all, there was that incident involved.
So Lu Anguo followed his son's lead and invested, for the same reason.
It's "reasonable" that the other two brigade commanders are opposing him.
What about Liu Yuying?
Liu Yuying and Commander Zhou have always had a good relationship, so why did she suddenly align herself with Lu Anguo?
Not only that, but in front of so many people, he made himself lose face.
Mo Cheng thought about it for a long time but still couldn't figure out when he had offended Liu Yuying.
Having risen to the position of brigade commander, his sense of smell was more acute than that of the average person.
He always felt that something was unusual.
The root cause of the problem has not yet been found.
"How is it not simple, Dad? You just don't want to help!" When Mo Youyou realized that pleading wasn't working, she started to act tough.
Normally, if it were any other minor matter, Mo Cheng would just let his daughter have her way.
But what we're dealing with today is no joke!
"Mo Youyou, wake up! I'm your father, it's not your place to tell me how to do things!" Mo Cheng shook off his daughter's arm that was clinging to him. "You can come back for dinner or stay overnight, but if it's about today's meeting, there's nothing to say!"
Mo Youyou stared wide-eyed, unable to believe what she had just heard.
"Dad?!" Mo Youyou exclaimed in shock, "Are you still my dad?"
Mo Cheng almost slapped her, but after all, she was his daughter, and he couldn't bear to do it.
"Shut up, what's all the noise about? You didn't get promoted this time, so what? There will be plenty of opportunities in the future. Shut up and get out!" Mo Cheng told him to leave.
Mo Youyou's eyes immediately welled up with tears. She couldn't believe that even her father wouldn't stand up for Liu Dekai.
"Dad! You have to tell me why!"
She wasn't stupid after all. Seeing her father's resolute attitude, she guessed that something was amiss, and she needed to find out what was going on.
Seeing that she softened, Mo Cheng also softened and stopped cursing.
"Youyou, you don't need to worry about these things. Just know that Daddy will not harm you."
No matter how Mo Youyou asked, Mo Cheng remained silent.
She had no choice but to leave.
But before leaving, I still ate at home. At least there was meat at home, which was much better than noodles, especially clear soup noodles!
By the time she got back, the noodles had all soggy and were inedible.
Seeing Mo Youyou enjoying her meal so much, Mo's mother's jaw almost dropped.
"Youyou, slow down. What were you arguing about with your dad? And look at you, like you haven't eaten meat in ages!" Mo's mother said with concern.
"It's something that happened in the army," Mo Youyou wiped her mouth, her face full of grievance, "Mom, Dekai's cooking is terrible, and he's reluctant to buy meat. I feel like I've lost weight!"
"Men's cooking skills are just so-so, as long as they're passable."
“He doesn’t buy meat, probably because he’s reluctant to spend the money. If Mom gives you money to buy meat, he’ll naturally cook more meat dishes.”
"If all else fails, take the money and go to a restaurant. Don't deprive yourself, understand?"
"Okay, Mom, I'll listen to you." Mo Youyou nodded.
When she got back, Liu Dekai could tell from her expression that it was hopeless.
Luckily, I didn't go looking for trouble...
It seems we have no choice but to accept it this time.
Liu Dekai silently made a mental note of this debt to Su Yueya and Lu Zhengjun, and he would definitely repay them if he had the chance in the future!
The following day, the Qiao family gathered together to celebrate Qiao Shouyan's promotion.
Qiao Hanxue specially cooked.
"Son, Dad will cook a few more of your favorite dishes today to congratulate you on your promotion!" Qiao Hanxue patted his eldest son on the shoulder and said happily.
Although neither of his two sons inherited his talent, Qiao Hanxue, as a father, has always treated all four of his children equally.
“Dad, there’s no need to work so hard…” Qiao Shouyan said.
“Big brother, we should celebrate! You used to be the deputy regimental commander, always overshadowed by your brother-in-law. Now you two are equals. If he bullies Yueya, you can take care of him!” Qiao Gaoyang said with a smile.
"When did I bully Crescent Moon?" Lu Zhengjun quickly asked.
You have to be extremely careful when talking to your two brothers-in-law.
I'm afraid they'll set a trap!
There are pitfalls everywhere!
"Isn't this taking precautions before things happen?" Qiao Gaoyang said.
"I heard that my brother-in-law even voted for my eldest brother. Second brother, is it appropriate for you to dig a pit for someone like that?" Qiao Xinruo joked.
Su Yueya wouldn't argue with them; she was her father's sweet little darling.
"Dad, I brought some vegetables. Let me cook a few dishes today to celebrate Big Brother's promotion!" Su Yueya said, putting the vegetables she had prepared in advance from her spatial storage into the kitchen.
“If you want to cook, we have everything at home, why do you need to go out and buy it yourself?” Qiao Hanxue said, giving his daughter room to cook.
"This dish is different, it's especially delicious, you'll see in a bit," Su Yueya said.
When Qiao Shouyan, Qiao Gaoyang, and Qiao Xinruo saw them, they were just ordinary vegetables. They couldn't imagine how delicious these vegetables could be.
However, this was made by Su Yueya herself, so even if the taste is ordinary, it must still be delicious.
"Then Second Brother is all waiting for you to show off your skills!" Qiao Gaoyang said enthusiastically.
"Go talk in the living room, don't bother Dad and me in the kitchen," Su Yueya said, shooing them away.
Qiao Hanxue then prepared his signature dishes: five meat dishes, including preserved plum ribs, celery and shredded beef, stewed pig's trotters with soybeans, spicy diced chicken, and ginseng and black chicken soup.
The vegetarian dishes were then left to Su Yueya to prepare.
She didn't go for anything fancy, since the raw materials were good enough.
These vegetables all come from the space and are irrigated with spiritual spring water. Even if they are just blanched in boiling water and eaten with dipping sauce, they are still incredibly delicious.
In order to serve the meal as soon as possible, Su Yueya didn't make it too complicated.
A stir-fried potato shreds with green and red peppers, a fish-fragrant eggplant, a stir-fried Chinese cabbage, and a smashed cucumber—that's it!
Seven people, nine dishes, five meat and four vegetable.
It's homemade, and the portion is generous.
"Dinner's ready!" Su Yueya shouted from the kitchen, and Lu Zhengjun hurried over to help his wife.
Serving dishes, serving rice, setting out bowls and chopsticks.
The whole family sat together at the dining table.
