Volume 1 Chapter 385 Military Wives Come to Congratulate
That is: Squad Leader Liang.
Squad Leader Liang's promotion directly surpassed the threshold of platoon leader, but his achievements are much greater than those of the platoon leader.
If the platoon leader had not made any mistakes and the army could not demote him, thus protecting his position, I am afraid that this platoon leader would have been squad leader Liang long ago.
The platoon leader didn't dare to say a word, but instead felt lucky that he had kept his position as platoon leader.
Sheng Wanyan had met Squad Leader Liang several times. He was the young soldier who went to the station to pick her and Gu Tingxiao up when she first came to Bingcheng.
Now, in just two years, he has been promoted from squad leader to company commander, which is really enviable.
What’s most exciting is that Captain Liang doesn’t have a partner yet! ! !
All the ladies and military wives in the military compound are eager to marry their nieces (sisters) to him.
When Captain Liang saw this scene, he was so scared that he ran away and went to Sheng Wanyan's house to hide.
"Sister-in-law, excuse me."
Gu Tingxiao brought him back, and now everyone in the single dormitory is surrounding him.
Not only were the aunts and military wives surrounding him, but even his comrades were observing him, as if they were testing whether he was suitable to be their brother-in-law.
Sheng Wanyan knew his embarrassing situation and said nothing. She just turned around and covered her mouth with her hands and laughed secretly.
"Don't bother, please sit down."
Sheng Wanyan poured out two cups of tea and prepared some melon seeds and walnuts to take out.
I looked at the two men sitting face to face in the living room, looking at each other, and no one spoke.
Yi Yi was curious when he saw Captain Liang and kept staring at him.
Captain Liang had not seen Yi Yi many times. After all, he was not married yet and did not live in the staff housing compound.
When he saw Yi Yi's lovely appearance, he finally understood why Captain Gu doted on his daughter so much.
This soft body, chubby white face, and the way the bright eyes look at you are irresistible to anyone.
Sheng Wanyan knew that Gu Tingxiao must have something to discuss when he brought the person home, and it would be inconvenient for her and Yi Yi to stay here.
She took Yi Yi back to the room to take a shower so as not to disturb the conversation between the two men.
"You guys chat, Yi Yi should take a shower."
"Rolling on the ground again, all dirty."
After hearing this, Gu Tingxiao went to fetch water for her and carried in the bath water for both mother and daughter.
"Wife, put it here after washing."
"I'll come down and pick it up."
Gu Tingxiao asked her to prepare some cigarettes for her evening so that she wouldn't have to do these hard tasks.
Sheng Wanyan smiled and nodded, telling him to go out quickly and not to neglect Captain Liang.
"I know, don't worry."
Gu Tingxiao squeezed her hand and then went back to the living room and sat down.
Gu Tingxiao looked calm and composed, but his action just now made Captain Liang drop his jaw in shock.
The captain is always like this at home?
Everyone in the army knew that Captain Gu loved his wife very much and often helped with washing clothes and cooking at home.
But I didn't expect that he loved her so much that he didn't even want her to carry the bath water?
Is this to be raised as a daughter? ? ?
Oh my god, this really refreshed my understanding of the Cold-Faced King of Hell.
"Why? You want to take a bath too?"
When Captain Liang heard Gu Tingxiao's cold words, he quickly came to his senses and shook his head frantically.
"No, no, no, Captain, you are joking."
Squad leader Liang touched his head and smiled innocently.
Although he looks a bit silly, he looks very majestic. He is from the north and you can tell at first glance that he is a big guy.
Gu Tingxiao asked him to go home and sit with him for a while, partly to help him avoid the army of people forcing him to marry, but also because he naturally had his own ideas.
As for what the two people talked about, no one knew, and Sheng Wanyan had never discussed it.
But her guess was almost right. After all...when Gu Tingxiao returns to Kyoto, he will need someone he can trust to stay in Bingcheng.
Sheng Wanyan didn’t know how long they talked or what they talked about, but Gu Tingxiao came in after she and her daughter fell asleep.
The appointment to the military post was completely finalized. Knowing that her son had no hope of promotion, Wu's mother had no choice but to pack up and go home.
After all, Wu's mother doesn't have only this one son. She came here because Zhang Zhaodi was causing trouble everywhere.
But now the youngest son has a wife he is satisfied with, and the promotion has been settled.
No matter how much you make a fuss, you won't be able to change the situation. Instead, it will make your leader dislike your family.
So she simply turned a blind eye and packed up her things to go home, leaving the young couple to live their own lives.
Sheng Wanyan's life was quite difficult, as many military wives came to visit her in the cold winter.
Everyone wants to congratulate, so I naturally can't refuse others.
But it was a pity for Yi Yi. This door was often opened by people who came to congratulate her, so Yi Yi was often blown by the cold wind and caught a cold in a few days.
Sheng Wanyan discovered that Yi Yi had a runny nose and was sneezing that day.
She quickly carried Yi Yi back to the room, but the military wives who came to congratulate her kept saying nice things to her, which annoyed her and made her angry.
"Oh, Captain Gu's wife, it's normal for a child to catch a cold."
"Just wear more clothes. Girls are all resistant to cold."
Not only the wives of the soldiers came to congratulate her, but also some middle-aged women came to join in the fun, just to say a few good words about their sons in front of her.
The military wives all knew that Gu Tingxiao and Sheng Wanyan were very protective of Yi Yi, so they naturally wouldn't say anything bad about Yi Yi in public.
Although they also felt that it was very foolish for Captain Gu and his wife to attach so much importance to a little girl, they did not dare to offend them.
"Look at my granddaughter. She doesn't catch a cold even if she wears two layers of clothes in winter. She helps with housework at home."
"Your daughter will definitely not be cold if she has so many clothes on."
As soon as the old lady finished speaking, Yi Yi started sneezing non-stop and started crying in pain.
"Oh, why are you still crying? Girls can't be so delicate."
"No one in the husband's family will want me when I get married."
Sheng Wanyan became annoyed after hearing this and immediately drove the person away with a cold face.
“That’s enough!”
Sheng Wanyan's tone was a little bad, and everyone knew she was angry when they saw it.
Some military wives quickly found excuses to leave, while some middle-aged women relied on their status as elders and continued to preach.
"My child is not feeling well, so I'm afraid I can't entertain you today."
Sheng Wanyan took a deep breath and suppressed her temper.
After all, these people came to congratulate me, not to cause trouble, so I can't treat them coldly.
Now we are entering 1977, and we have to prepare for Gu Tingxiao's return to Kyoto. We can't let anyone catch us.
"I understand, I understand. We will go back first."
"Yes, yes, the children are the most important."
The military wives all expressed their understanding and took their mothers-in-law back home.
Some of the ladies wanted to continue preaching, but were pulled away by their daughters-in-law.
Some aunties are still talking about teaching her how to educate children and how to treat "girls".
