Chapter 232: Captain Lu Dominantly Protects His Wife
The piece of paper was as big as a picture magazine, and it was filled with dense text. Lu Jingzhen took it and read it carefully.
It was obvious that Mai Yajun was not perfunctory, but wrote it seriously. Seeing that he had indeed recognized the mistake, Lu Jingzhen said in a deep voice:
"Go get another piece of paper."
Mai Yajun almost lost his balance when he heard it. Did Lu Tuan want him to rewrite it?
He didn't sleep all night to write it! He felt that if he rewrote it again, it would be like asking him to die.
"Captain, why don't you punish me by making me run, fifty laps... No, no, a hundred laps is fine!" Mai Yajun said with a face full of pain.
"You can run too." Lu Jingchen said slowly. Just when Mai Yajun breathed a sigh of relief, he suddenly heard Lu Jingchen continue,
"Wait until you finish writing before running."
Mai Yajun felt like the sky was falling, but he had to obey the military order, so he could only go and get the paper obediently. When Mai Yajun came in with paper and pen and prepared to continue writing, Lu Jingchen pointed to the brush beside him and motioned for him to write with the brush.
The characters written with a brush are so big, and this piece of paper cannot hold 2,000 words. Just when he was wondering, he heard Captain Lu say:
"Condition these 2,000 words into 200 and write them bigger."
Actually, Lu Jingshen asked him to write 2,000 words yesterday just to punish him, not to really post a 2,000-word apology letter. With so many words, no one would have the patience to read it, and it would not achieve the effect he wanted.
Mai Yajun heaved a sigh of relief when he heard that he only had to write 200 words. Later, he followed Lu Jingchen's request and did not write the whole story of what happened before. He just said that he believed the false rumors and spread them in the army. The people who spread those rumors have been arrested. He expressed his deep regret for the injustice suffered by Comrade Xia Qingqing and apologized to her sincerely. He hoped that everyone would not spread rumors in the future...
After he finished writing, Lu Jingchen took it, looked at it carefully, and then added another sentence below:
"In view of the adverse consequences caused by this incident, Comrade Mai Yajun of the 702nd Company is given an administrative warning. Please take this as a warning.
Comrade Xia Qingli is my wife, Lu Jingzhen, whom I married willingly. We are husband and wife, honor and disgrace together. To insult her is the same as to insult me. If anyone spreads rumors and slanders behind her back and damages her reputation, they will be severely punished!"
Lu Jingzhen's handwriting was strong and powerful, with a sense of solemnity. After writing, Lu Jingzhen wrote his own name on the back, stamped the seal of the regiment, handed it to Mai Yajun, and instructed:
"Post it on the notice wall of the family compound and take it down after a week."
"Warning punishment" is the lightest administrative punishment in the army. If there is no repetition of the offense within six months, the punishment will be automatically revoked. Lu Jingzhen gave a verbal warning and did not produce any written documents, so it will not be recorded in Mai Yajun's file.
The reason for giving this warning punishment is to deter those with bad intentions, so that no one will make a fuss about the past and verbally attack and insult Xia Qingli like Tian Kaiju did yesterday.
Mai Yajun took the apology letter from Lu Jingzhen, saluted, turned around and walked out of the regiment office.
Lu Jingzhen had just returned from a mission and could rest for two days before going to work. After he dealt with the things here, he went directly to Xia Qingli's dormitory.
Xia Qingxi had packed up everything, and the two were originally planning to move back, but Lu Jingqie mentioned midway that since Xia Qingxi was here, there was no reason not to visit the two uncles. The two discussed and decided to go to the uncles' homes tomorrow.
When visiting someone's home, you naturally have to prepare gifts. Last time, Xia Qingxi bought canned food and peach cakes at the military service center, but it was the first visit, and these gifts were indeed a bit light, so the two decided to go to the city center and buy some gifts.
There are buses from the family area that can go directly to the city center, with two trips a day. Looking at the time, it was almost ten o'clock, so they could catch the second bus, so they went directly to the platform. It
was almost twelve o'clock when they arrived in the city center, so they decided to have dinner first and then go to the department store.
During the meal, Lu Jingjing told Xia Qingqing about the situation of his uncle's family:
his eldest uncle Su Yunlong was a general who participated in the Liberation War and the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Chao. He is now the head of the division. His aunt Zhou Huiying's family is a red-blooded family. The two met and fell in love during the war. After marriage, they gave birth to two sons, the eldest brother Su Xiangdong and the third brother Su Xiangnan, and a daughter Su Man. The
eldest brother Su Xiangdong is already married. His wife is Shi Yamin and has a 10-year-old son Su Yang.
The second uncle Su Yunfei participated in the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Chao. He is now the brigade commander of the division. His aunt has passed away. The second brother Su Xiangxi is the son adopted by the second uncle. The fifth brother Su Xiangbei and the youngest sister Su Wan are the second uncle's biological children.
Lu Jingchen is the fourth oldest among the family, so everyone calls him the fourth brother or fourth younger brother.
After introducing the Su family, Lu Jingchen hesitated for a moment and told Xia Qingxi:
"Sister-in-law Shi Yamin lost a child at the train station last year. She is under great mental pressure. The word "sister" is taboo for her. If you go to her house, just call Su Man by her name, not "sister."
Xia Qingxi nodded after hearing this. In fact, she knew about this incident because it was written in the book.
In the book, Shi Yamin's temperament changed drastically because she lost her child and she was hostile to everyone. Later, the heroine Mo Xiaoxiao, by chance, helped Shi Yamin find the child.
It was a pity that when the child was found, one of her arms was already broken. But because of this incident, Mo Xiaoxiao became a benefactor that Shi Yamin was particularly grateful to. She treated her like her own sister. After knowing that Mo Xiaoxiao liked Lu Jingchen, she created various opportunities and kept bringing them together. She could be said to be their matchmaker.
Xia Qingxi didn't know that the little girl she saved on the train was Shi Yamin's lost daughter, because the little girl in the book was missing an arm, not mute.
And the girl's name was not mentioned in the book. She was not called Suna, but Su Xin. There were too many children abducted in this era, so she didn't know that things were so coincidental.
After the meal, the two went directly to the department store and bought two bottles of Xifeng wine, two cans of malt extract, and two boxes of snacks.
When passing by the food area, Xia Qingxing saw some cookies on the shelf. Thinking of her eldest brother's ten-year-old son, she decided to buy a box for the child.
After walking out of the department store with a bunch of things, it was inconvenient to go shopping. There was a bus back to the army at this time, so the two went directly to the bus station.
Two hours later, the two returned to the army and ran into Su Xiangnan. He looked at Lu Jingzhen with a smile, and gave Lu Jingzhen a thumbs up in a place where Xia Qingxing couldn't see, and then said to the two:
"Don't cook, come to my house to eat in the evening. After you put the things back, go over there. Mom and Su Man are already cooking at home." Then he added:
"Oh, by the way, my second uncle and his family are coming too."
After listening to Su Xiangnan's words, Xia Qingling realized that this was a large family gathering, and perhaps they came to see their "country daughter-in-law".
"Okay, we'll go over in a while." Lu Jingzhen replied.
Su Xiangnan deliberately bumped Lu Jingzhen with his shoulder and asked with a smile:
"You are really amazing. Why didn't I see it before? You protect your son so much, oh, bah, bah, you protect your wife, protect your wife."
"What?" Xia Qingling turned around puzzledly after hearing his words, looked at Su Xiangnan and asked.
Su Xiangnan's smile deepened, and he looked at Xia Qingqing and asked,
"You don't know? He is domineering to protect his wife, oh, it should be the deeds of domineering to protect you, and now it has become a hot topic in the hospital."
