Lu Lingxiao advised, "Old Meng, there's no need to give up this assessment just because of what happened. You can't bear the consequences of Feng Zhirong's actions."
He has always kept public and private matters separate.
He loathed Feng Zhirong, a gossipy woman with a mouth full of pus, but he wouldn't take his anger out on Meng Daqiang because of her stupidity and ignorance.
Meng Daqiang looked at him gratefully, "Captain Lu, I know you're doing this for my own good! I also hope I can pass this assessment!"
"But as the head of a family, if I can't even teach my own wife and daughter well, then even if I get promoted and transferred to another unit, can I really lead a regiment well?"
He's only a lowly battalion commander now, and Feng Zhirong is already this brazen. If he were to be promoted to deputy regimental commander, frankly, Meng Daqiang couldn't even imagine how arrogant Feng Zhirong would become.
And the children at home will probably become more and more arrogant and unreasonable, swearing and cursing like their mother.
"But you..." Seeing that he had made up his mind, Lu Lingxiao's eyes darkened.
You have to know that Meng Daqiang is already 36 years old. If he doesn't seize this opportunity, it will be even more difficult for him to move up in the future. He may not be able to get promoted until he retires from the army.
Moreover, Meng Daqiang is the most promising candidate in this assessment. If he passes all the assessment items, he will be transferred to another military region to serve as a deputy regimental commander.
And now, he just gave up like that?
“Commander Lu, I am a soldier, but I am also a husband and a father of several children. Protecting the country is my responsibility, and I also have family responsibilities and responsibilities as a father.”
Meng Daqiang found that the more he talked, the more open-minded he became. In the past, he had aspirations and wanted to climb up, but after what happened just now, he suddenly realized that family education is more important than aspirations.
After a moment of silence, Commander Lin raised his hand and patted Meng Daqiang. "I'll give you two days to think it over. If you still insist on giving up this opportunity after two days, then I'll grant you leave immediately and allow you to go back to your hometown to visit your family!"
After saying that, he turned around and instructed Zheng Jianguo, "Old Zheng, go back and write a notice and post it on the notice board in the family compound. From now on, any family members in the family compound who cause trouble or insult other family members without reason will be taken to the army and put in solitary confinement for two days!"
“Okay! I’ll write it in a bit!” Zheng Jianguo nodded and agreed.
Looking at Meng Daqiang with a gloomy face, he couldn't help but sigh.
What the older generation said is indeed right.
Marry a virtuous wife, and your life will become more and more prosperous.
If the wife is unvirtuous, the husband will suffer many misfortunes.
Meng Daqiang's entire life was ruined by Feng Zhirong, the troublemaker.
It took Commander Lin a long time to suppress his anger. After returning to the army, he immediately called Zheng Jianguo and rushed to find the commander, and then complained bitterly in the office.
After hearing this, Commander Jiang’s eyes widened.
There was no way. It was the first time he heard Lu Lingxiao talk back at someone in front of so many people.
wrong--
To be more precise, it was the second time.
"That brat really cursed so..." Jiang Fengyi swallowed his words before he could finish.
Lin Zhan poured himself a cup of tea and drank it in one gulp. "It couldn't be more true! Now, I'm more and more optimistic about this guy. In order to protect his wife, he would even give up his integrity. But, that curse he said was really good!"
At this point, he poured himself another cup of tea and placed it on the table. "When I heard those words, I wanted to go up and scold those family members. If my position didn't allow it, I would have lost my temper and cursed them."
Jiang Fengyi's eyebrows twitched, "How can a person with such a good temper like you be so angry that you want to curse?" You know, Lin Zhan's temper is much milder than his.
If he is the explosive dragon of the Jincheng Military Region, then Lin Zhan and Zheng Jianguo are the good old guys of the military region, always speaking and acting in a gentle manner, and rarely showing their anger or sullen face in front of outsiders.
"Commander, you didn't hear what they said. It's really—it's hard to explain!" Zheng Jianguo shook his head with a bitter smile.
He is now extremely grateful that his wife did not come to the military region to accompany him.
His wife has a very gentle personality and never gets into an argument. If she hears some unpleasant words, won't she be so angry that she'll get sick?
Jiang Fengyi frowned. "How will Meng Daqiang live with such a troublesome wife? Even if he stays to participate in the assessment, will his family ever have a peaceful time?"
"A leopard can't change its spots. She's jealous and envious because Lu Lingxiao's wife is prettier and buys more things. What will she do if someone tries to bribe her? She'll even sell her own husband!"
Believe it or not, someone like Feng Zhirong could actually do something like that.
Because she is so greedy. If someone gave her a large sum of money and asked her to do something immoral and against discipline, could she resist the temptation?
Lin Zhan and Zheng Jianguo exchanged a glance, shrugged, and indicated that they were powerless to change such speculation.
After all, there are too many variables in the future.
What’s more, people’s hearts are fickle.
No one can guarantee what will happen in the future.
"Forget it, let's not talk about these bad things."
Jiang Fengyi waved his hand and said to Lin Zhan, "First, let the Third Regiment Commander Tang Pengyi tell Meng Daqiang to think it over seriously for two days."
"Or we could have him buy train tickets and send his wife and daughters back to their hometown, then have him come back to take the exam. This might be his last chance, so he should make sure he seizes it and doesn't have any regrets."
"OK!"
Lin Zhan nodded.
"By the way, did Ling Xiao tell you? His family is having a housewarming dinner tonight. Are either of you free to go?"
"Yes! This is a must!"
"This is the first time Commander Lu has treated us to dinner. No matter how busy we are today, we have to make time for dinner."
"Old Lin, remember to bring your good wine. Tonight, we're going to have a good drink." Jiang Fengyi remembered that Lin Zhan's family had two bottles of fine Wuliangye liquor. He hadn't had a drink in a while and was craving some.
Hearing this, Lin Zhan was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
I don't understand why the commander, who clearly has several bottles of good wine, is so fixated on his two bottles...
......
Compared to the fear and trembling of the military wives and the laughter and chatter in the offices of military leaders, the Lu family courtyard was much warmer and quieter.
After Feng Zhiyi returned home, she took out the things she bought in town and arranged them one by one. Then, taking advantage of the time when no one was in the kitchen, she smuggled some ingredients out of the space and mixed them together.
In fact, she didn't buy too many vegetables in town just now. Basically, she only bought about one kilogram of each kind, just to make it look good. She would mix in some vegetables and fruits grown in the space when she came back.
There are plenty of ingredients.
