The weather cleared up in the afternoon. Mrs. Gong stood between Su Jin and Yun Feng with red and swollen eyes, looking at the dazzling sunlight outside the window. Her ears were filled with the voice of Gong Changzheng talking about dividing the family property under the escort of Lu Shiyi and Lin Zitao.
"Sister-in-law Gong, they should be sent back to the village today. Please help pack up the things." Su Jin saw that Aunt Gong was about to make a fuss, so he hurriedly sent Sister-in-law Gong out.
After Mrs. Gong left, Yunfeng asked Dazhu to sit aside and patiently asked about the bullying of the mother and son.
"Aunt Yun, it's been too noisy at home. I've been staying at Dashun's house these days. My mom's afraid I'll get beaten all the time!" Gong Tianming smiled bitterly. "When I came back the other day, I heard Grandpa and Grandma tell me to ask Dad to find a job for my second uncle's family so that he could come live with me."
After listening to his son's words, Gong Changzheng looked at his parents with cold eyes. It was not enough for the couple to give money and tickets. Did they have to rely on them for the solution?
"Is what Dazhu said true?!" Lin Zitao looked at the two elders of the Gong family, "Gong Changzheng is a soldier under my command. He is in his prime now. For his own good, I can't let you ruin this promising young man."
Lu Shiyi and Lin Zitao discussed that they would be the ones to split up the family business. If Gong Changzheng's reputation was damaged, it would also be an obstacle for him to join the Divine Sword Group.
After investigating the situation at the Gong family, it was found that the two elders of the Gong family had abused the military family members.
"This is our Gong family's business. Haven't you heard that even a fair judge has difficulty judging family affairs?" Aunt Gong glared at them. In the village, even the team leader would not easily interfere in other people's family division.
Lin Zitao took out three brigade certificates from the pocket of his training uniform. They were fingerprinted by the brigade leader and villagers of Gongjia Village. They proved how the old couple of the Gong family abused Gong Changzheng's wife and children when they returned to the village to worship their ancestors.
"This is the evidence. It was mailed to us by the village." Lin Zitao held up several documents stamped with the brigade headquarters' seal and showed them to the two elders. "You abused military families in the village. If this certificate is sent to the local armed forces department, your youngest son will probably be imprisoned as well."
When Gong Changzheng heard his wife mention what happened when she returned home, he immediately asked his childhood friend to go to the village to get the evidence. He took the opportunity to open the door and handed the evidence to Lin Zitao.
The two elders of the Gong family looked at him unfriendly. Gong Changzheng looked up at them, no longer as gentle as he was at home.
"Dad, Mom, I've done enough over the past decade. I owe them both so much. I just want to spend the rest of my life with them." Gong Changzheng's heart was filled with bitterness. "You always think I'm helping the second son's family, but have you ever thought about how I'm supposed to live? I know parental love can't be equal, but you can't be so partial and sever the relationship all at once."
Gong Changzheng knew that Gong Laoer had gotten into trouble at home again, so he called him a few days ago and asked for money to fill the hole he had in his pocket.
Old Man Gong and Old Lady Gong looked at each other, and thinking of the amount mentioned by Old Man Gong, they felt a little reluctant to let their eldest son go.
"You said that if you give us fifteen hundred yuan, we won't have to support our parents in the future." Aunt Gong remembered the amount mentioned by the second son. It would cost 800 yuan. Who could have so much money at this time?
1500? !
Gong Changzheng's face looked very ugly. He had just settled accounts with the old man and mailed half of his allowance to his family over the past ten years.
"I don't have that much money!" Gong Changzheng smiled bitterly and scratched his face with his hands. "Don't I support my family? Every time I go home to visit my family, I have to buy some things to bring back, and those things cost money."
Every family needs money now, and this is especially true for life with the army. Mrs. Gong is a very clever and skillful person, and everything in the house is bought by her personally.
Lu Shiyi looked at Gong Changzheng and asked, "How much money can you give if you can still have enough food and clothing to survive the winter?"
Su Jin looked at Lu Shiyi. The family had nearly 30,000 yuan, so it would be fine even if they borrowed it from Gong Changzheng.
Lu Shiyi's salary is high, so she usually uses the space to eat more. In addition, Su Jin occasionally goes to the black market to sell a batch of things.
Hu Tou also did business frequently, and the family's money gradually increased.
"Probably only 600!" Gong Changzheng frowned and said, "Ministry Lu, I..."
"Wife, go home and give him 900 yuan." Lu Shiyi said to Su Jin, "Let's lend it to him first. When we get the allowance later, we can exchange it for one-third of the allowance every month."
Mrs. Gong was standing at the door of the two elders. When she heard Lu Shiyi's words, she felt warm in her heart and thought that it was not a bad thing for Gong Changzheng to follow Lu Shiyi.
Gong Changzheng got up and went to the study, took a piece of white paper and a pen, and wrote an IOU to Lu Shiyi in public.
"Minister Lu, I wrote the IOU and I will definitely pay it back." After writing it, Gong Changzheng handed it directly to Lu Shiyi.
Mrs. Gong stood beside Gong Changzheng and said, "Minister Lu, we will try our best to pay back as much as possible."
Even outsiders would not blame their family. Instead, it was their parents who always wanted to make money from them.
"Pay back the amount Ayi mentioned, sister-in-law. You still have children and a family to support." Su Jin knew that the situation would be difficult in the next few years. If Gong Changzheng paid back the money as soon as possible, life would be even more difficult.
After Su Jin finished speaking, she went back to get the money. Gong Changzheng and his wife looked at Su Jin's back with red eyes.
"Political Commissar, please help me write a letter of severance. Please keep this letter at my workplace as a certificate." Gong Changzheng needed to consider his reputation and his family. He worked hard to get promoted, hoping that his family would be better off.
Old Man Gong and Aunt Gong felt uncomfortable. They didn't expect that Gong Changzheng could borrow money. They thought of using this outrageous amount to persuade his family to take care of the family again.
"Dad, I can gather the money. You can take the bus back today. If you are any later, the mountain will be closed due to heavy snow. Most of the food at home has been mailed back by you, which should be enough to support the second son's family." Gong Changzheng didn't want to have any more contact with his hometown, so he said it directly.
