Upon hearing this, Grandma Jiang gave Jiang's father a dangerous look.
"From what you're saying, you're saying you look down on my daughter-in-law?"
When his mother asked him this, Jiang's father cried out that he was wronged, "Mom, you are really wronging me. How could I possibly dislike Minmin?"
I said this because I feel that Minmin works hard and takes care of our whole family, and she doesn't have time to dress herself up properly.
"Isn't it perfect that there's an opportunity tomorrow?"
Jiang's father was truly wronged; he genuinely loved his wife dearly.
"It had better be as you say. If you dare to look down on my daughter-in-law, I'll break your legs."
Grandma Jiang threatened Jiang's father in a fierce manner.
Grandma Jiang cherished her daughter-in-law more than anyone else, even Jiang Yue and Jiang Zheng.
"I absolutely wouldn't dare."
Jiang's father repeatedly assured him, which finally made Jiang's grandmother let him go.
Jiang Yue, Yao Hua, and Jiang Zheng chuckled to themselves.
"Dad, Grandma, don't worry. Tomorrow I will definitely give Mom a really beautiful new hairstyle and make her look gorgeous."
Jiang Yue assured him.
Upon hearing this, Jiang's father looked up at her, as if he wanted to say something, but he seemed to be wary of Jiang's grandmother being there, so he didn't dare to speak.
After finishing talking about Shen Min, Jiang Yue suddenly asked her father.
"Dad, do you know that Political Commissar Yu is coming back today?"
"Yu Xiangdong?"
Jiang's father frowned, looked seriously into Jiang Yue's eyes, and asked, "Where did you hear this news?"
Jiang Zheng's expression turned serious as he looked at Jiang Yue.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yue recounted her encounter with Zhao Lanxi and Siyu in the courtyard.
Especially when he heard Jiang Yue say that Yu Xiangdong was engaged to another woman, his face was full of disbelief.
"impossible."
Jiang Zheng waved his hand, confidently defending Political Commissar Yu.
“I know Lao Yu, he is definitely not that kind of person.”
Hua Hua, you have to trust your brother too. He and Lao Yu have worked together for so many years. If he wanted to use family connections to climb the ladder, he would have been promoted long ago. He wouldn't still be hanging around with me and Lao Lu now.”
Upon hearing this, Jiang's father glared at Jiang Zheng and said, "Shut up."
He didn't like hearing that at all.
After thinking for a moment, Jiang's father said, "So, the reason that Siyu knew Yu Xiangdong was coming back today is probably because the Yu family gave her the information."
This training exercise that Yu Xiangdong is going out on this time is different from usual; they are not allowed to send any messages out.
The only people who knew they were coming back today were the leaders in charge of this training exercise and the higher-ups.
Jiang Yue understood after her father said that.
"So this news is true."
Jiang Yue looked up at Yao Hua and said, "Hua Hua, you don't need to listen to what your older brother said. If Political Commissar Yu really comes to find you, just do what you think is right."
Since the incident involving the marriage report, Jiang Yue has not said a word in defense of Political Commissar Yu. She has neither praised him nor criticized him.
Jiang Yue has been teaching Yao Hua that loving someone means loving yourself first, teaching Yao Hua to be confident, and helping Yao Hua to re-evaluate the relationship with the right attitude.
Jiang Zheng objected, "Yueyue, what you're saying isn't right. What do you mean by 'don't care what I say'? I've worked with Lao Yu for so many years, I definitely know what kind of person he is."
Don't you trust your older brother's judgment?
Better to tear down a temple than to break up a marriage!
Jiang Zheng might not have known about this before, but now that he does, he's bound to say a few words in defense of his good brother.
Jiang Zheng continued to defend Political Commissar Yu: "Fine, even if you don't believe me, do you not believe me either, Lao Lu?"
When Lao Lu gets back, go ask him if Lao Yu is trustworthy or not.
“Brother, I have never doubted Commissar Yu’s character.” Jiang Yue sighed helplessly. She and Jiang Zheng had completely different ideas.
"But you must understand, brother."
"Relationships and character are two separate issues. What good is good character if you can't handle relationships well?" Jiang Yue retorted.
"Just like the marriage application last time, Political Commissar Yu was on leave and not in the army at that time, so the marriage application was not approved. He should have been the first one notified, right?"
Since he's on vacation, and he knows about this, wouldn't it be difficult for him to just call back and explain to Hua Hua?
Jiang Zheng: "...He...the place he went to may not have a telephone, or the army may not have notified him."
"Okay, even if he didn't have a phone with him at the time, the army didn't notify him."
Jiang Yue nodded understandingly, then asked, "And what happened after he came back?"
"He told Hua Hua before he left that he would go to training when he came back, so it's clear that this training wasn't a last-minute notice. He must have come back early, right?"
Even if he's too busy to come and explain to Hua Hua after he gets back, surely he could at least make a phone call and say a few words?
Seeing that Jiang Zheng still wanted to explain on behalf of Political Commissar Yu, Jiang Yue directly cut him off, "Don't tell me the army doesn't have telephones!"
Or perhaps he was in a hurry. If he were, he could have come back earlier. I believe he would have had time to make a phone call, but he didn't.
Speaking of this, Jiang Yue was particularly angry. "Brother, do you know how Hua Hua spent that time?"
When this news spread, you weren't home, so you have no idea how awful those words were, and you have no idea how much pressure and grievance Huahua endured..."
During that period, Yao Hua went to the factory early in the morning and returned late at night to help out, and sometimes she didn't even dare to go home. It was because she was afraid of hearing those people say those hurtful things, and she felt guilty towards her family for letting the Jiang family suffer such criticism because of her.
