"You have to be careful with Gu Yunxiu. He's very petty. My former battalion commander accidentally said the wrong thing, which led to the delay in the arrival of reinforcements on the battlefield. Later, everyone—"
Just because of a small matter, an entire battalion of brothers were left on the opposite side. Afterwards, he shamelessly said that it was because the battalion commander made a wrong judgment on the spot and did not obey orders, which led to everyone dying in vain under the Japanese bayonets.
All of us have been deprived of our pensions and even accused of deserting the battlefield. This was simply because the battalion commander said something wrong and everyone helped to plead for him.
The uncle approached Jiang Cha and told her in a very low voice how despicable and shameless the garrison commander Gu Yunxiu was!
Just a few wrong words made him want to kill, even at the cost of the lives of an entire battalion.
His character can no longer be described as petty; it can be said that he is vindictive.
For a man with such a personality, she pressed him step by step today, making him feel very aggrieved.
Then what she is going to face is definitely worse than what the battalion commander the uncle mentioned. I'm afraid the man has already started planning a series of retaliations against her in the office!
"I never thought he'd do something so outrageous, even though he looks like a decent person. He caused so many people to die just because of a few words?
"Have you ever thought about suing him? Isn't he afraid of military court? Does he really think he's the local tyrant?"
Jiang Cha asked the uncle angrily in a low voice. In fact, she knew in her heart that there must be someone behind that grandson, otherwise how could he dare to be so arrogant?
The uncle's hands were shaking as he held the pipe and he couldn't put the tobacco in several times. He had to use a lot of strength to pinch the small cloth bag containing the tobacco.
The blue veins on the back of his hand are particularly obvious, and it can be seen that the uncle is trying hard to hold it in.
"We can't afford to offend him. He's a classmate of the principal's son. He's the most loyal of the loyal, so who would bother with us, the little pawns under him?
Do you think God is fair? We are the ones who have been through life and death, we are the ones who have escaped death, and we are the ones who have been looked down upon and suffered when we came back!
They slept so comfortably on their high beds with soft pillows, yet they said they were here to fight, yet they were like cuckolds and hadn't even made it to the river, let alone going across the river to fight the Japs with real guns. Sigh!"
When we were having dinner yesterday, the uncle was still very reserved. But today, probably because he felt that they were both wanderers in the world and had both been harmed by that Gu Yunxiu, he couldn't help but talk too much.
As expected, the victim identity is very useful. She doesn't even need to act pitifully to gain sympathy. The uncle treats her as one of his own.
Jiang Cha sat on the stall with an angry look on his face, surrounded by many onlookers.
The town is so small that what happened in the morning spread everywhere in less than half a day.
Some people were angry and cursed Gu Yunxiu behind his back, saying that he was not a good person and had no other abilities except being petty.
However, some people thought that the girl was not a pushover and escaped from the base unscathed. The soldiers even tied her up with ropes and took her away.
The remaining people have good relations with the base and have some shameful deeds in private, so what they say is extremely unpleasant.
"What did you do, little girl? Why did the bosses knock on your door so early in the morning? Do men often knock on your door? If so, you're wrong. Don't be picky when you open the door for business.
Didn't they agree on the price? Why did they have to bring such a small matter to the headquarters? The commander is always worried about serious matters, how can you bother him with such a trivial matter?
The person who spoke was an old man wearing glasses, with white hair and beard, wearing a long gown and looking like a cultured man.
It just means that the words spoken are not good, they are sarcastic and definitely insulting.
If she were a real little girl, she probably wouldn't be able to stand such an insult and might even become depressed.
After all, in this era, old and new ideas collide, and many people talk about improving new ideas.
In fact, they are still very conservative in some aspects. They think that women should not go out of the house and that virtue lies in being untalented.
I even feel that the girls on the streets nowadays are so unruly, showing their faces in public with their arms and legs exposed, which is a disgrace to the family.
Jiang Cha doesn't think it's a big deal for such people. Changes always lead to various conflicts, especially the collision between new and old ideas.
However, if someone attacks a woman with such vicious means, and the people around her still have old-fashioned ideas, they may even drown her.
Especially in a small border town, if the people are conservative and the clan rules are strict, she really can't fight against four people with her own fists.
I can only say that he is indeed a cunning old man with vicious intentions. Others can only satisfy themselves with his words.
He lacks moral integrity, and his words and actions imply that she is involved in the flesh trade.
The conflict with those soldiers was also because we couldn’t agree on the price?
"Excuse me, who is this?"
Jiang Cha stood up politely and asked the crowd politely.
"You mean the old gentleman? He's the Liu Xiucai (Scholar) from our town. He almost became a Juren (School Master) in the previous dynasty. Now he's Mr. Qian's father-in-law. Miss, you know Mr. Qian, right?"
Jiang Cha hadn't been here long, so he didn't know a lot about what was happening in the town, but Boss Qian was very famous.
It is said that he has a very big business and the local commander has a good relationship with him.
It is said that Boss Qian's family was extremely poor and he had to go out to beg for a living.
Later, I don’t know how he became rich, but when he returned to his hometown, he started buying mountains and land on a large scale.
He brought back many people from other places and mysteriously fenced off all the mountains and lands he had bought.
There are patrols on weekdays. If I hadn't seen the crops sprouting and blooming in his land, I would have thought he was planting gold in the ground!
