Chapter 046 No One is Worry-Free
The political commissar wanted to hit him with a ceramic cup.
Really!
I don’t know what’s going on with these people, and none of them are worry-free.
Rubbing his brows, the political commissar also hoped that Chen Yuan could make up for his deficiencies in cultural subjects through further studies this time, which would be very beneficial for his future promotion.
When Chen Yuan returned to the house, Su Wan and Su Jianguo had already cleaned the house inside and out.
There were also several sisters-in-law who had just come out of their homes. When they saw him, they all greeted him with a smile.
After greeting the sisters-in-law one by one, Chen Yuan had just walked in when Zhou Guoqiang and his wife came in carrying things.
Mrs. Zhou also changed her previous aggressive attitude in the hospital and stood beside Zhou Guoqiang like a docile little lamb.
When Zhou Guoqiang saw Chen Yuan, he immediately apologized, "Chen Yuan, I changed your plan without authorization, which nearly wiped out our entire army. I came here to apologize to you."
He said it sincerely, but Su Wan didn't want to appreciate it at all.
If it weren't for his eagerness for quick success, Chen Yuan wouldn't have suffered so much, and he wouldn't have had a cut on his head, and he wouldn't have to take medicine even after resting for so long.
But she didn't know what to say, so she just stood there and didn't pour water for the Zhou couple.
Su Jianguo pretended not to know and sat on the chair, but his eyes were always on the Zhou couple, for fear that they would go crazy.
"You don't need to apologize to me. You should apologize to that fallen comrade."
Chen Yuan had a gloomy face and didn't want to let the matter go easily.
He is still alive because of his good fortune and his quick reaction.
If he had reacted a few seconds slower, Su Wan would have become a widow and his parents would have lost a son.
When he was a soldier, he was already aware of donating his body to the country. He would rather die gloriously on the battlefield than die in the mistake of his comrades who arbitrarily changed their actions in order to gain military merit.
Before Zhou Guoqiang could even speak, his wife couldn't help but speak up for her husband. "What's wrong with you? We admitted our mistakes and apologized, but what's your attitude? Are you asking us to kneel down and admit our mistakes?"
"Mrs. Zhou, I don't understand what you're saying."
Su Wan raised her voice, her gaze fixed on Zhou Guoqiang. "It was clearly Captain Zhou who arbitrarily changed the plan, which nearly led to the annihilation of this operation. How could he not even have the courage to take responsibility for his mistakes?"
"We've already apologized, haven't we? And my father has already appeased the comrades who died in this operation. He's paid them compensation and even given them jobs."
Mrs. Zhou's voice was a little sharp. Zhou Guoqiang kept using his eyes to stop her from speaking, but he still failed.
Or maybe, this is what he really thinks in his heart?
When Su Wan heard this, she laughed out of anger.
"So what do you mean now? You think you did nothing wrong?"
Her question left Zhou Guoqiang and his wife speechless.
Before they could say anything, Su Wan continued, "When martyrs sacrifice their lives, whether it's providing pensions or arranging jobs for their families, that's what the country should do. If it weren't for Captain Zhou, he wouldn't have died, his child wouldn't have lost his father while still in her womb, his wife wouldn't have become a martyr's widow, and his parents wouldn't have to see their son die."
Hearing Su Wan's aggressive attitude, Mrs. Zhou also became angry.
"So what do you want us to do? Do you want us to die just for them?"
Hearing this, Su Wan was unable to talk to such a person for a moment.
At this time, Chen Yuan also spoke, his voice a little difficult, "A human life cannot be bought with any amount of money."
As he said this, Zhou Guoqiang's expression became even worse.
He remained silent and said to Mrs. Zhou, "This is all my fault. Don't say so much."
Su Wan just felt that such people were very disgusting. As a colleague of Captain Zhou, she felt that her husband was not safe at all.
"Captain Zhou, please go back. If you feel you did nothing wrong in this matter, then do as you wish. I have nothing to say."
"Chen Yuan, I didn't say I didn't do anything wrong."
Zhou Guoqiang didn't want to admit that what he did led to the sacrifice of his comrades, but this was a fact, and even if he was transferred, the matter was a foregone conclusion.
Thinking of what his father-in-law had said before, Zhou Guoqiang said, "I will apply for a transfer."
After saying that, he turned and left.
Su Wan picked up the things and quickly chased after them. "You should take the things back. This is not what we want. Even children know that they should say sorry when they do something wrong, and their attitude should be sincere..."
Even though she didn't say the rest, Zhou Guoqiang and his wife both knew what she meant.
Mrs. Zhou's face turned red with anger, but Zhou Guoqiang held her back.
He walked forward with some difficulty and said to his wife beside him, "Didn't my father-in-law ask me to find a clerical job for him? I think it's suitable."
Mrs. Zhou shrugged nonchalantly, "Then just transfer out of the army. You earn little and you've been through life and death. You should have switched to civilian work long ago. With my dad here, what are you worried about?"
Their voices were not loud, but they happened to be heard by Mrs. Wei.
She leaned against the window and couldn't help but be amazed.
"People with connections are different. They can feel so at ease even if they kill someone."
"Let's not meddle in their affairs. Zhou Guoqiang's father-in-law is quite powerful. He only has one daughter, so he dotes on her."
Captain Wei advised his wife, "You should spend more time with Chen Yuan's wife in the future. Chen Yuan and his wife are both good people."
Mrs. Wei ate some sunflower seeds and said, "How can I visit her? She's not in the barracks. I can't move to the county just to be close to her, can I?"
"Then do your part."
Captain Wei put his gun on the table, then suddenly remembered something and asked, "I remember you had a younger sister who dropped out of middle school. Would you like to have her join the military art troupe?"
"My older sister is working in a factory now. My family probably won't let her come. Forget it!"
"Okay, if your older sister doesn't come, I have a cousin who graduated from high school and doesn't know what to do. I'll let her try, okay?"
Captain Wei first asked about his wife's younger siblings, and then mentioned his own cousin. He knew well how to get along with his wife.
After all, people are close to each other.
If there is something good going on, he also has to ask his wife's family if they want to come.
"We only have this shabby house. Your cousin can only stay for a day or two. How will she stay longer?"
"I'll come and squeeze in with you in the dorms. If you don't mind, I'll send a telegram back to let you know."
"Alright!"
After all, they are family. Although Mrs. Wei didn't like the people from Captain Wei's family, she didn't refuse them.
