Chapter 48 Lu Weiguo's Protection

Shi Tingyu ignored the people in the car, turned around and stood up to get out of the car.

Lu Weiguo stepped forward and stretched out his hand to her.

Shi Tingyu subconsciously handed her hand to him, thinking that he would support her as usual.

Unexpectedly, Lu Weiguo held her hand, and the other hand clasped her waist, and hugged her down.

His movements were neat and easy, as if he was holding a child.

Everyone had a complicated expression, and it was unclear whether they were more jealous or sighing.

Apart from anything else, this Battalion Commander Lu really loves his wife.

After Shi Tingyu landed safely, Lu Weiguo reached out and patted her on the head, then turned his head to look at the people in the car.

Especially the ones Shi Tingyu had named before.

Being stared at like this, not to mention the women, any man would be afraid.

Lu Weiguo spoke in a cold voice, "It is the duty of soldiers to obey orders. I have no opinion on the decision made by the higher-ups. The third battalion commander deserves this promotion regardless of his military seniority or military exploits."

Everyone looked at each other, unsure of what Lu Weiguo meant by this.

Lu Weiguo changed the subject and said, "I have no opinion on the decision made by the higher-ups, but."

As soon as he said "but", the people who had been there before began to feel uneasy.

"However, I am very disappointed with what you said about my wife and her family."

"You are family members of military personnel. Which of your family members and husbands has not been on a mission? When you are slandering my wife and my father-in-law, have you ever thought that the weapons in the hands of your family members were researched and improved by the people you slander?"

"I don't ask you to be grateful, but when your relatives can return safely, I hope you will not forget your contributions as weapons researchers. It is because of them that your relatives suffered less injuries or even stayed away from death during the mission."

"As beneficiaries, others can talk about them, but we soldiers and their families cannot."

Lu Weiguo was really angry. If he hadn't been in a bad mood in the driver's seat, he would have stepped forward to argue with these people.

Many of the weapons they are using now were improved after Shi Qian returned to China, otherwise how could the military district leaders protect the Shi family so much?

Looking at these people who are talking without any worries, he felt sorry for his father-in-law.

Shi Tingyu looked at the man's furious look and felt that the man in front of her was very tall.

She reached out and took Lu Weiguo's hand, facing the people in the car with a solemn expression: "My parents were demoted, and they accepted this arrangement. They have no complaints because they have feelings and they still love this land."

After that, Shi Tingyu said to Lu Weiguo: "Weiguo, let's go."

Lu Weiguo held Shi Tingyu's hand tightly, turned around and left.

Until the figures of the two disappeared on the street, everyone slowly got out of the car.

Their expressions were either regretful or frightened, and no one dared to talk about this topic again.

The driver Xiao Meng saw that everyone had gotten out of the car, and he leaned over the window to look in the direction of the car fight, and said in a serious tone: "Sisters-in-law, don't spread whatever others say. When you do that, you will not only disappoint others, but also bring trouble to your own men."

Several people blushed with shame and left in a hurry.

Shi Tingyu and Lu Weiguo let go of each other's hands as soon as they walked into the crowd.

No one on the street would walk hand in hand like this.

Lu Weiguo turned his head and looked at his wife beside him, his eyes full of worry. He asked, "Did you know about those rumors?"

"Yeah."

Shi Tingyu didn't hide it from her. After all, she was staying in the family compound. Lu Weiguo, who often stayed at the training ground, knew about it. How could she not know?

"Don't take it to heart. I didn't get promoted this time, not because of you." Lu Weiguo didn't know how to comfort his wife so that she could believe what he said, so he told her his truest thoughts, "Actually, it's good not to get promoted this time. It would be a bit too conspicuous for me to get promoted at this age. It's a good thing not to get promoted." The

promotion to battalion commander is an important turning point in the military career. Some people who have not been promoted for many years can only retire and return home.

Only by being promoted to the regimental level can you stay in the barracks for a longer time.

He is still young and can afford to wait.

Shi Tingyu smiled at her, "I know that I am the reason why I didn't get promoted this time. You don't have to make up for it for me. But since you said it doesn't matter, I will believe you."

Lu Weiguo didn't know whether she really believed him or not, so he could only emphasize again and again that not getting promoted was a good thing, and that he didn't plan to get promoted even without her.

At this moment, he especially missed Feng Wei's eloquent mouth.

Shi Tingyu took two steps forward and interrupted her chattering: "Let's go, let's buy things and go back."

The topic was interrupted like this, and Lu Weiguo accompanied Shi Tingyu to buy meat at the supply and marketing cooperative, and also added some oil, salt, sauce and vinegar to the house.

Along the way, Lu Weiguo carefully observed Shi Tingyu's expression, fearing that she would still blame herself for this matter.

However, Shi Tingyu's facial management was very successful, and he could not tell any emotions from her.

After the supply car returned, no one told anyone about what happened in the car today.

In the afternoon.

Lu Weiguo was weeding the vegetable field in the yard.

Feng Wei walked in and saw Lu Weiguo working in a straw hat. He couldn't help but tease him, "Don't say, you really work like that."

Lu Weiguo looked up and saw that it was Feng Wei. He piled up the grass in his hand and pointed his chin towards another vegetable patch. "You came just in time. Help me weed." Feng Wei's mouth twitched. If he had known this would happen, he should have stayed in the office. After thinking about it, Feng Wei rolled up his sleeves and

got to work . "I say, Lao Lu, has your vegetable garden gathered the spiritual energy of heaven and earth? The grass is growing too strong." "You know nothing, our vegetable garden is nutritious, look at the cabbage, so juicy." Lu Weiguo was unhappy. This vegetable garden was taken care of by his wife, and he thought it was very good. Feng Wei: ... He shouldn't have come. Feng Wei's family is not from the countryside, but he was once caught by the quartermaster to do farm work, so he still knows how to pull weeds.

Shi Tingyu came out after hearing the noise and saw two men pulling weeds in her small vegetable garden.

"Master Feng is here, stop working and come in and take a rest."

Facing Shi Tingyu's invitation, Feng Wei said with a smile: "It's okay, it's just a small piece of land, Lao Lu and I can finish it in a while."

Lu Weiguo also said: "Wife, you go back to the house and take a rest, we are used to it, we are not tired."

Feng Wei looked at him and bared his teeth at him.

Seeing this, Shi Tingyu stopped trying to persuade them. She took some mung beans and went to the kitchen to cook a pot of mung bean soup.

Wait for them to finish their work so that they can cool down.

Watching Shi Tingyu washing mung beans, Feng Wei nudged Lu Weiguo next to him with his elbow, "Old Lu, your sister-in-law hasn't been affected by the rumors recently, right?"

Lu Weiguo moved to the side, "What do you think?"

Feng Wei touched his chin and rubbed the mud on his chin without realizing it, "I can't really tell, but people say that the calmer you are, the more you care about something."

Lu Weiguo looked at him suspiciously, "You're not here today because of the rumors, are you?"

"I really am." Feng Wei was not vague at all, "As a counselor, I have to take care of this matter. I can't let you and your wife have conflicts because of this." Lu

Weiguo looked at Shi Tingyu who was busy in the kitchen, and after all, he didn't say anything unnecessary.

He was not sure whether his wife was telling the truth or pretending not to care to avoid him.

Now there is Feng Wei, who is good at speaking, who can help comfort her.

It is better if she does not care. If she still cares about the rumors, it would be good to let Feng Wei do some ideological work.
