Lin Manzhi said calmly, "As long as you have confidence, I have no objection."

After a pause, he continued, "Let's choose a suitable instructor first!"

Yang Niannian's mouth corners slightly raised. Lin Manzhi was like a leader. She had arranged everything, and now she was talking about selecting an instructor.

Isn’t it obvious that they are asking for more?

Yang Niannian didn't say anything, and the other military wives didn't say anything either.

If it were in previous years, everyone would definitely nominate Lin Manzhi because the wife of the previous leader did not like to get involved in these things.

This year is different. Not only is Yang Niannian here, she’s also the host. We can’t bypass her and nominate Lin Manzhi, right?

If Yang Niannian was chosen, Lin Manzhi would undoubtedly be offended.

No one wanted to be the first to speak out, even Xu Yinglian looked around and said nothing.

Lin Manzhi curled her fingers slightly, "Since no one is expressing their opinions, I will! I recommend Nian Nian to be the person in charge this time. What do you think?"

When Yang Niannian saw Lin Manzhi pushing the ball towards her, she modestly refused.

"I have no experience, so it would be more appropriate to let someone with experience guide us. Who was in charge last year?"

Xu Yinglian answered quickly this time, "It was Sister Lin who guided us. If we talk about experience, then Sister Lin is definitely the most experienced. None of us have leadership skills."

Yang Niannian followed her words and said, "Since it has always been Sister Lin in the past, then let's continue to trouble Sister Lin this year, right?"

This job is not easy to take. Not only is there no benefit, but people will also find fault with you. It's better to be a host and just say a few words to get by.

Since Lin Manzhi wants to take care of this matter, let her go.

Seeing that Yang Niannian had spoken, the others also echoed and agreed that Lin Manzhi should continue to be the instructor.

Especially Xu Yinglian, who echoed the loudest, "I also think Sister Lin is suitable. Our performances are not original, so Sister Lin will have to lead the way."

There was a hint of determination in Lin Manzhi's eyes. Even if Yang Niannian wanted to be in the spotlight this time and wanted to be an instructor, she would not be angry.

Not everyone can be an instructor, and it would be even more interesting if things turn out to be a mess and you make a fool of yourself.

"Since everyone wants me to be the instructor, I will obey your order. If anyone feels unwell, please come to me in advance to ask for leave so that I can make arrangements."

Xu Yinglian smiled flatteringly, "Of course, there must be discipline. Since I recommended you to be the instructor, I must obey your arrangements."

Tao Hua couldn't stand Xu Yinglian's lackey-like behavior, but she endured it and didn't say anything. She was not the only one who disliked Xu Yinglian. If no one else said anything, she would not be a submachine gun either.

Lin Manzhi glanced at everyone and said, "If you all have no objections, then it's settled. Everyone should report downstairs on time at 7 o'clock tomorrow morning. While the weather is good these two days, we will practice in the open space downstairs. We will practice for two hours in the morning and two hours at 2 o'clock in the afternoon."

Yang Niannian, "Isn't seven in the morning a bit early?"

If you report at seven in the morning, you have to get up at least twenty minutes earlier. It's so cold, getting up so early is asking for trouble.

We only train for two hours in the morning, so we can gather around 8 to 8:30.

Lin Manzhi glanced at her and explained.

"Rehearsals are more effective in the morning because everyone has just woken up and their minds are clear, making it easier for them to remember the movements."

Yang Niannian looked at the other military wives and nodded when she saw that no one had any objections. "Okay then, since we've discussed it, I'll go back first. See you tomorrow."

After saying that, he got up and left the house.

Tao Hua also found an excuse to say goodbye and trotted to catch up with Yang Niannian.

He said with an apologetic look.

"Sister, I'm so sorry. I'm a bit of a chatterbox and told everyone that you were a college student. I never thought that Deputy Head Wei's wife would let you perform calligraphy just because you are a college student. It's all my fault for being too chatty. Please don't take it to heart."

Yang Niannian smiled and said, "It's okay. This is not something shameful. I'll just say it now."

Tao Hua was relieved to see that Yang Niannian was not really angry. Seeing that Yang Niannian was kind and easy to talk to, she gave her a reminder in a low voice.

"Big sister, I'm telling you the truth. Don't be disgusted by my nagging. Get up early tomorrow, but don't get up late. Otherwise, Deputy Captain Wei's wife will definitely blame you for getting up late."

Yang Niannian felt that there was something else behind Tao Hua's words. Her eyes flashed and she spoke in deliberate confusion.

"Mrs. Yan, I don't know if I'm overthinking it, but I always feel that Deputy Captain Wei's wife seems to have some opinions about me, but I don't think I've ever offended her. Do you know why?"

Tao Hua didn't want to say anything at first, but when she heard her ask this, she took her hand and walked upstairs.

"Let's go back to your room and talk."

The two quickly returned to the room, and Tao Huashen closed the door mysteriously, speaking in a pinched voice.

"Big sister, I'm going to tell you something in private. You can't tell anyone else, or I'll be in trouble."

Yang Niannian immediately made a promise, "Sister Yan, don't worry! I will never tell anyone. You see, I'm not very good at socializing, and I'm not familiar with the other sisters-in-law."

Tao Hua thought about it and agreed, so she dared to continue.

"Everyone originally speculated that Deputy Commander Wei was going to be promoted, and his wife was very happy during that time. Then Commander Lu was suddenly transferred here, and Deputy Commander Wei's hopes of promotion were dashed. His wife was also at odds with him for a long time, and she even refused to come to the troops before, and it has only been a short while since she was coaxed into giving up."

Everyone lives in the military compound, so they basically know what happens in anyone's family. Even if they don't say it openly, everyone knows it behind the scenes.

Lin Manzhi's condition today is obviously different from before. Anyone with eyes can see it. No one is a fool, they just don't say it explicitly.

Yang Niannian finally understood why Lin Manzhi was hostile to her. She pretended to be surprised, and then looked grateful.

"Mrs. Yan, thank you. If you hadn't told me, I really wouldn't have known there were so many twists and turns. No wonder Deputy Captain Wei's wife doesn't like me."

Tao Hua reminded him seriously, "Just know it in your heart, don't show it. Deputy Captain Wei is a native of Beijing, and his family has some background. Although Captain Lu has a higher position, you are outsiders after all..."

She didn't explain it too clearly, but reminded him in a pointed way, "Anyway, you're studying in school, and she's living in the military compound. After the New Year, we'll be separated, so try not to have any conflicts."

Yang Niannian roughly understood what Tao Hua meant. Deputy Captain Wei was from Beijing and his family had a small background. Although his family might not be very powerful, it was better off than Lu Shishen's.

To put it bluntly, there is no need to offend their family.

Yang Niannian accepted the favor and said, "Thank you, Sister Yan. I will definitely not conflict with Sister Lin."

Tao Hua smiled and waved her hands, "You're welcome. My old Yan also climbed up step by step. When I was young, I also had to face a lot of contempt, but I finally made it through. Big sister, you are lucky. You are the wife of the head of the group as soon as you get married, and your husband treats you well. You are a blessed person, and good days are ahead."
