"You bastard! Don't come back after you leave!"
"Me, a brigade commander, donating only a few dozen yuan? I'd be laughed to death! You may be shameless, but I still have my pride! Humph!"
Upon hearing this, Lin's mother, who had just stepped out of the house, froze. However, the anger she felt compelled her to overcome her instincts and leave without looking back.
Despite the dire situation at home, Old Lin still wants to borrow money to donate just to save face. It's infuriating!
She wanted money to buy clothes and to send money to her daughter in the countryside, but he wouldn't allow it at all. She had really had enough of this.
She used to be gentle, considerate, and attentive because Commander Lin could provide her and her daughter with a life of wealth that they could never achieve in their entire lives. But what about now?
"He won't let me buy this, he won't let me buy that, he won't even send money to Tian Tian, humph, what use is he?"
As his wife, she knew best that Brigade Commander Lin's abilities were limited. He had worked so hard for so many years to reach the position of brigade commander, and that was the end of his road.
His abilities on the battlefield were limited, but she played a huge role in getting him to where he is today. If it weren't for her good relationship with those ladies, her ability to give gifts and win their favor, and her influence over them, and her early opportunities and strategic planning, would he have achieved what he has today?
Now he's blaming her!
He thinks he can use Tian Tian's marriage to an old man to become a stepmother to advance his career? He can forget about it! She's already fed up with living that kind of life for half her life.
Her daughter certainly deserves the best.
Since Brigade Commander Lin is no longer useful, she has to reconsider. Otherwise, she doesn't even know if her daughter will survive in that ruthless countryside!
She herself came from the countryside, and the saying "poor mountains and bad waters breed unruly people" is no joke.
She made up her mind, gritted her teeth, and ran out of the family compound.
Just as she was at the door, she saw Xiao's mother registering people who had donated cotton clothes and quilts, and Lin Huan was receiving those people. Everyone around them was full of praise for them, and she couldn't help but stop in her tracks.
Her face grew increasingly twisted and ferocious. "The Xiao family! Xiao Che, Bai Yajing, Lin Huan! You have ruined my life and my daughter's life! Why are you all so successful while my daughter and I are left to live in constant fear, separated from our family and left with nothing?"
While Xiao's mother was busy, she always felt that someone was watching her, so she looked up in that direction.
Startled, Lin's mother immediately turned around. She couldn't let her enemies see her in this ridiculous state, or they would laugh at her to death!
She thought of someone and made up her mind.
She left the residential compound without looking back and never returned.
Commander Lin was so angry that he smashed everything in the house. He refused to apologize to the woman, and their relationship remained at an impasse.
Although Lin's mother was middle-aged, she was beautiful, gentle, and charming, and her words could make any man fall for her.
So, after she left, her life actually got better and better.
She wasn't afraid of criminal penalties for violating military marriage laws. She and Brigade Commander Lin only held a banquet, and the marriage certificate didn't even have her name on it!
Her family situation simply wouldn't pass the political vetting!
Her father had been imprisoned for theft, and her older brother was a scoundrel who stole chickens and dogs and did nothing productive.
She herself doesn't have a good reputation in her hometown.
Therefore, she knew from the beginning that her situation was simply not good enough to pass the political review.
They simply registered and reported the information using the identity of a girl from the same village with whom they had grown up since childhood.
Their village was very remote and backward. Every family would just hold a banquet for weddings. It was estimated that only the village chief's family might have a marriage certificate.
