"Xie Heng, you still don't believe me now? If you don't believe me, then why did you agree to let me go? You might as well just lock me up for life."
"Do you think I don't want to? Zhang Yumei, you know why your parents came, and I know it too. If it weren't for your parents' sudden arrival, do you think you would have a chance to go out? Zhang Yumei, I'm telling you, don't be shameless. Do you really think that just this one thing can make me obey you in front of your Zhang family? Don't even think about it. Zhang Yumei, I'm telling you, even if I, Xie Heng, take off this military uniform, I will never let your Zhang family get what they want. Even if I, Xie Heng, break off all ties with your Zhang family, I will never agree to your parents' request to arrange for your good brother to join the army.
Zhang Yumei, if that happens, who will your parents hate the most? Will it be me? Do you think they'll hate me the most? Do you think they'll vent their hatred on me? No, they'll hate you. They'll resent you.
Zhang Yumei, have you forgotten what life was like in your family when you were a girl? Have you forgotten the true colors of your parents and your brother? Do you think they'll truly be grateful to you for helping them in this matter? No.
I tell you, Zhang Yumei, not only will they not be grateful to you in their hearts, they will laugh at you. Because you, Zhang Yumei, are really too stupid. "
"Zhang Yumei, I'm going to tell you this one last time. I will never do anything for your parents. If you firmly stand on their side, then even if I, Xie Heng, take off my military uniform, I will not compromise my reputation with your parents. If everything in the army is ruined, then I will retire and go home.
"Zhang Yumei, no matter what, I, Xie Heng, always have a way out. But you're different. If you make the wrong choice, you'll have no way out. If you think you can live well in your parents' home after divorcing me, then trust your parents." With that, Xie Heng turned and walked out of the bedroom.
Just when Zhaodi, Zhang Dabing and Zhang Youcai were feeling complacent and thought that this matter was going to be accomplished, and when Zhang Yumei was hesitant, Liu Paner once again called Xie Zhaochi into her bedroom, because Liu Paner really couldn't stand it anymore. Liu Paner was afraid that Xie Heng would really be sent back to his hometown by the leader this time, so Liu Paner thought about going outside to fight those people today.
After listening to Xie Zhaochi's words, Liu Pan'er walked out of the house. When Liu Pan'er just walked out of the house and came to the information gathering place in the family compound, when the military wives saw Liu Pan'er approaching them, none of them made a sound.
Liu Pan'er seemed to have not heard or seen the gazes of the military wives in front of her. She walked straight up to them and sat down among them. The military wives who were originally talking there suddenly shut up after seeing Liu Pan'er.
At this moment, the military wives' faces were full of embarrassment. They didn't know whether they should greet Liu Pan'er or not. But the strange thing was that they couldn't find any trace of embarrassment from Liu Pan'er.
Just when those people didn't know what to say to Liu Pan'er, Liu Pan'er's eyes turned red, tears suddenly flowed down, and her voice choked.
"Wow, I, Liu Pan'er, am so old now. Both my legs are already in the coffin, with only half of my body hanging around outside. And now, people are making up stories about me and slandering my son. There's really no justice in this world.
The third child of my Xie family has been filial and well-behaved since childhood. Ever since he joined the army, he has regularly sent his monthly salary back to me and his father back home. He even writes numerous letters each month asking about our health. How could such a good child like me be slandered like this? Deep down, I resent those who slander my third child behind his back!
If those people really want to slander our Xie family, then they can slander me. As an old woman, I don’t care. I only ask them to let my third son go. They can’t slander our third son.
Everyone was deeply surprised when they heard Liu Pan'er's cries. Although the military wives beside her wanted to hear what she had to say, some of them, seeing her crying so hard, rushed forward to comfort her for the sake of appearances. However, Liu Pan'er was like a fountain, crying louder and louder, and her tears were flowing more and more.
But this also made the military wives present happier.
Liu Pan'er kept crying to them, talking about how awkward she felt when she first came to the army from her hometown, how she had completely adapted to the army, and how the military wives in the family compound took care of her, an old woman, after she arrived at the army.
Then Liu Paner continued, "My son did something wrong five years ago, but he also received the punishment he deserved. I am very grateful to the army and thank the army for giving our third son another chance. And it is precisely because of what happened five years ago that every time I think about it, I feel uncomfortable in my heart. My blood pressure is high, I have a headache, and I feel uncomfortable all over.
Although this incident has passed, every time I think about it, I still feel uncomfortable all over. I am in pain, very painful.
