"He's just putting on an act in front of you. You have no idea how much this mischievous monkey can drive me crazy every day," Sister He said with a smile.
As Wei Aiguo walked inside, he said, "Sister-in-law, what you said isn't true!"
Look at you, the mother, you can't stop smiling as you look at your son!
If my son is as easy to take care of as Dajun in the future, I'll wake up laughing in the middle of the night!
Yuan Haiyan felt she was losing control; she felt like she was going crazy. She kept hearing her son's voice over and over again.
"Hey! This is...this is Xiao Wei!" Commander He was very excited and slapped Wei Aiguo on the hand. "I heard you retired from the army, I was so sorry! But you're doing just fine, aren't you?" He's still wearing his uniform, isn't he?
“I haven’t done anything wrong, I haven’t stolen or embezzled, why should I be discharged from the army!” Wei Aiguo said.
I will not steal or be greedy!
Yuan Haiyan was as if she had been struck by a loud drum.
Old friends are overjoyed to see each other again. Regiment Commander He said, "You woman, you have no sense of propriety! Go and prepare a meal so we can have a drink!"
"I'll go, I'll go right now! You all go inside first!" said Sister He.
"Mom, I'll go help you carry your things," Dajun shouted.
"What a good boy! So sensible and filial! Brother He, you have a wonderful son!" Wei Aiguo said.
Jin Wu gave Wei Aiguo a strange look. This guy never seems to stop talking about his son, does he? The key question is, has he even seen his son?
Yuan Haiyan couldn't stand it anymore and went inside, slamming the door shut behind her.
Commander He had also learned about this woman's behavior since she moved in; he knew she was always acting crazy, but he didn't know what it was about today.
Wei Aiguo had already seen Su Zhaohai approaching out of the corner of his eye. This was the first time he had met Su Zhaohai. But Su Rui's eyes and brows bore a resemblance to him.
“Brother He, the old lady next door is really hurtful with her words. I just happened to see her pointing her finger at my sister-in-law and cursing her when I came over!” Wei Aiguo said.
Regiment Commander He had already seen Su Zhaohai, and he looked slightly embarrassed because of Wei Aiguo's words.
"Sister-in-law He is a tolerant and generous person. If it were someone else, they would have fought with her."
Is her husband in the same unit as you? Aren't you going to do anything about it? You should try to mediate; you can't let your wife always be bullied, can you?" Wei Aiguo said with a hint of anger on his face.
"Section Chief Su is back?" Regiment Commander He greeted Su Zhaohai, and at the same time informed Wei Aiguo that his family had returned.
Wei Aiguo understood why Commander He had this attitude; it was because the man had lost two sons and Wei Aiguo sympathized with his family.
"Just finished!" Su Zhaohai was meeting Wei Aiguo for the first time, and he knew who he was without being told.
After dealing with Regiment Commander He, Su Zhaohai prepared to go inside.
How could Wei Aiguo let this go so easily? "Old comrade, you speak with a Beijing accent!"
Actually, people from Kyoto have two eyes and one nose, just like people from other places. As military dependents, people from Kyoto are no more noble than others, don't you think?
Su Zhaohai wanted to go inside and hide, but it seemed impossible. "Everyone is equal. I don't look down on people from other places."
"That's what your wife said. The person in the house is your wife, right?"
I happened to run into him when I arrived, and he was humiliating Sister-in-law He, saying that she was petty and came from a small place…”
"She's so petty, and she won't even let people talk about her?" Yuan Haiyan came out of the house. "You're no better than her! You think you can raise a son just because you have one?"
Water can drown people, and cars can kill people…
Su Zhaohai quickly covered his wife's mouth. Yuan Haiyan couldn't speak and could only sob.
That's a really vicious thing to say.
Wei Aiguo's face was so black it looked like it could drip water.
Wei Aiguo was glad that he had never sympathized with Yuan Haiyan, otherwise he would regret it now.
“You two must take responsibility for what you said! I demand a public apology from you!” Wei Aiguo was not afraid to make this matter a big deal.
It was already an exceptionally generous act that Su Zhaohai was able to stay in the army and not be demobilized. This was something Su Zhaohai had fought tooth and nail for.
Yuan Haiyan's reckless actions have dragged Su Zhaohai into the mess. If he were to leave the military, dealing with him would be much easier than it is now.
Su Zhaohai understood this principle, of course. "I'm sorry, comrade, my wife was upset and spoke without thinking. I apologize on her behalf."
Because of the commotion, some people came out to watch the excitement.
“Whoever did it should apologize. Besides, does this old comrade seem inclined to apologize?” Wei Aiguo gestured for everyone to look, and Yuan Haiyan was struggling desperately to speak.
If her mouth hadn't been covered, she might have said something.
Jin Wu figured it out: Wei Aiguo had come to visit a friend, but he wanted to argue with the old woman.
It's unbelievable! He's usually so quiet, but he can really get into arguments with women. He's got the intensity of an old lady arguing at the market!
He can't just stand by and watch; he has to help out.
"Hey, old comrade, how did you treat your wife!" Jin Wu went up and easily pulled Su Zhaohai's hand away.
He didn't take Su Zhaohai's strength seriously at all.
Freed from her restraints, Yuan Haiyan's mouth spewed out like a machine gun. "Let me tell you, even if you have a son, you might not raise him!"
How come you didn't die out there!
How lucky Shen Changchuan is! He managed to find his son who had been missing for twenty years! You should have died out there…”
"Who are Brother He and the others?" Wei Aiguo asked.
"Young comrade, Sister-in-law Su has been upset. Her son had an accident. Sometimes, she gets really upset... Don't take what she says to heart!" A military wife who was watching the commotion tried to mediate.
Jin Wu: "What happened to his son?"
Wei Aiguo felt that bringing Jin Wu along was absolutely the right decision.
"His family... his son had an allergic reaction to the medication, and unexpectedly... that thing happened..." Many people know about Su Zhaohai's family situation. Since he moved here, people have definitely been asking about his family, so almost everyone knows about it.
Regiment Commander He: "His family name is Su!"
"Shen Changchuan is no good either; he'll be childless sooner or later."
"He just picked up a worn-out shoe..." Yuan Haiyan muttered to herself.
Su Zhaohai slapped Yuan Haiyan across the face. "I told you to shut up!"
Wei Aiguo can guess why Yuan Haiyan hates Shen Changchuan.
"This is the first time I've met you, but I already know who you are."
You hate Shen Changchuan because he didn't use his position to save your eldest son who embezzled and destroyed state property, right?
Sister-in-law, what you just said was really nice. Was her son's accident considered an accident?
His eldest son was sentenced to death and executed by firing squad.
His youngest son stole Old Master Zeng's gold.
"Comrade! My wife is a mother who has lost her son. She's a bit unstable, please don't be like her. I'm on her behalf to apologize to you."
"Furthermore, our family has never sought help from Comrade Shen Changchuan, nor have we ever considered asking anyone to cover for us." Su Zhaohai then bowed deeply to Wei Aiguo.
