Chapter 336 The Evil Mother-in-Law's Pretense of Illness is Exposed!
The old lady Zhang, who was originally "paralyzed" on the ground, suddenly jumped up from the ground as if she had springs under her buttocks.
This jump was at least three feet high.
They are more agile than monkeys.
"It hurts like hell! You heartless bastard! You've stabbed me to death!" Old Mrs. Zhang covered her mouth, tears and snot streaming down her face.
Su Yue slowly put away the silver needles and stood up.
"See, that's it."
She turned to the crowd of onlookers and spread her hands.
"Everyone saw it. He was just having a heart attack and was on the verge of death, but after this injection, he can run and jump again, and his voice is louder than anyone else's. His physical condition is better than the reconnaissance soldiers in our company."
Laughter erupted from the crowd.
"That old lady is quite the actress!"
"Exactly! He was just acting like he was going to die a moment ago, but this time he jumped higher than me!"
Grandma Zhang then realized that she had given herself away.
Her face turned pale and then red, and her finger pointing at Su Yue was trembling.
"You...you..."
"What about me?" Su Yue took a step forward, forcing Old Lady Zhang to retreat repeatedly.
"Since you're not sick, let's settle the score."
Su Yue pointed to the mess in the yard.
"Feudal superstition, inciting crowds to cause trouble, openly engaging in this kind of thing in the military compound. Do you know what kind of behavior this is?"
"This is called disrupting military marriages and undermining morale!"
"And another thing," Su Yue pointed at Zhao Hongmei, "why did she get so sick a month ago? It was because you forced her to go to the river to wash your cotton-padded clothes when she was on her period! It was because you wouldn't let her boil water in the dead of winter to save money!"
"Is mistreating one's daughter-in-law a family matter?"
"According to the regulations of the subdistrict office, this kind of behavior is punishable by being paraded through the streets as a form of public humiliation and subjected to labor reform!"
Grandma Zhang was completely bewildered by this series of accusations.
Although she was feisty, she was also afraid of the word "reform".
"I...I just wanted a grandson! What did I do wrong!" Old Mrs. Zhang still stubbornly insisted, "She can't have children, so she can't even talk about it?"
"Who says she can't have children?"
Su Yue pulled Zhao Hongmei over.
"Her health has recovered. As long as she is in a good mood and no longer suffers from this smog, getting pregnant is only a matter of time."
"On the contrary, it's you," Su Yue said coldly, looking at Old Lady Zhang. "You're always making such a fuss, turning the house into a chaotic mess. Under such high pressure, your hormone levels are all out of whack; no wonder you can't get pregnant!"
"If you really want a grandson, you'd better behave yourself. Otherwise, even if he comes, you'll scare him away!"
Grandma Zhang opened her mouth, but no sound came out.
Just then, several middle-aged women wearing red armbands squeezed in.
The person in the lead was Director Wang of the Military Family Members Committee.
"What are you all doing here?!"
When Director Wang saw the courtyard full of incense ash and yellow talismans, his face turned ashen.
"Zhang Shufen! What kind of feudal superstition are you spouting now!"
When Grandma Zhang saw Director Wang arrive, she completely wilted.
"Director, I...I just want some good fortune..."
"Seeking blessings? I think you're seeking misfortune!" Director Wang waved his hand. "Collect all this junk! That sorceress, take her to the police station! Zhang Shufen, you come with me to the committee and write a proper self-criticism! Your ideological awareness is so low, you must receive some education!"
The fortune teller, seeing that things were going badly, tried to slip away.
Qiangzi rushed forward and twisted her hands behind her back.
"Go to the police station."
Old Mrs. Zhang was taken away by Director Wang. Before leaving, she kept turning back, hoping her son would plead for her.
But this time, Qiangzi turned his back and didn't look at her.
The courtyard was finally quiet.
Looking at her messy home and then at the man standing in front of her, Zhao Hongmei finally couldn't hold back her tears.
"Qiangzi..."
Qiangzi turned around and awkwardly wiped away her tears.
"Hongmei, I'm sorry. I was a jerk before, always making you put up with me."
He took a deep breath, as if he had made a major decision.
"I have already submitted my application to the regimental headquarters."
"Apply for what?"
"I'm applying to be transferred to the coastal defense post." Qiangzi looked at her. "It'll be tough there, but it'll be peaceful. I think you should apply too, and we can move to the family quarters there. As for Mom... I'll have my older sister take her back to our hometown. I'll send her extra living expenses every month so she won't have to bother you here anymore."
Zhao Hongmei was stunned.
Coastal defense outposts are truly at the ends of the earth.
But as long as that wicked mother-in-law isn't there, even a deserted island would be paradise for her.
“Okay.” Zhao Hongmei nodded vigorously. “Wherever you go, I will go.”
Su Yue stood aside, watching this scene, and closed the first aid kit.
"Alright, the show's over, I should head out now."
Zhao Hongmei walked over, intending to bow to Su Yue.
Su Yue caught her in her arms.
"Stop with all this fluff."
"When you get there, live a good life. Don't forget to take your medicine."
Su Yue carried her suitcase and walked out of the courtyard gate.
Behind him, he was met with the awe-inspiring gazes of his neighbors.
"This Dr. Su is truly amazing."
"It can not only cure diseases, but also cure wicked mothers-in-law."
"If anyone has a difficult problem in the future, they can't go wrong by going to Dr. Su."
...
By the time I got home, it was completely dark.
Su Yue put the first-aid kit in the entryway and collapsed onto the sofa.
tired.
I'm mentally exhausted.
It's more tiring than performing ten surgeries.
A pair of warm, large hands rested on her shoulders.
The pressure was just right, accurately pressing on the acupoints that were sore on her.
"Is it all done?" Gu Beichen's voice came from above.
"Hmm." Su Yue closed her eyes, enjoying Chief of Staff Gu's exclusive service. "That old lady Zhang will probably have to write a self-criticism in the committee for a week."
"Qiangzi has applied for a transfer," Gu Beichen suddenly said.
“I know. It’s fine.” Su Yue turned over and rested her head on his lap. “It’s better to change the environment than to suffer there. It’s just a little tough.”
“He’s not afraid of hardship. He’s afraid of losing his wife.” Gu Beichen’s fingers ran through her long hair, gently combing it. “Today’s events have made him realize who is the person he will spend his life with.”
Su Yue opened her eyes and looked at Gu Beichen's handsome face.
"And what about you, Chief of Staff Gu? Are you also afraid of losing your wife?"
Gu Beichen lowered his head and placed a kiss on her forehead.
"Afraid."
"So I have to keep a close eye on it."
He picked up Su Yue and carried her to the bedroom.
"What? I haven't showered yet."
"Let's talk about something serious first."
"What important matter is it?"
Gu Beichen placed her on the bed and leaned over her.
"A peaceful and tranquil first birthday celebration."
"And... the matter of giving them a younger brother or sister."
Su Yue kicked him in the chest.
"Dream on! Our daily chemical factory is just starting out, how could I have time to have a baby!"
Gu Beichen grabbed her ankle and pressed down on it.
"Having children doesn't stop me from making money."
"Besides, I see that Zhao Hongmei can get pregnant, so we can't fall behind."
"..."
This damn competitive spirit.
Outside the window, the moonlight was as clear as water.
Inside, the spring sunshine was just right.
