Chapter 42 Losing Money and Tickets
A moment later, Army Commander Chen, Political Commissar Cao, Brigade Commander He, Cheng Jinghao and Zeng Wei all arrived.
Cheng Jinghao walked up to Lin Momo and looked at her worriedly as she leaned in Zhou Weihong's arms.
"What's going on?" Commander Chen looked at Lin Momo and asked.
Without Lin Momo saying a word, Li He and the military dependents around him explained the matter clearly.
"He Shuangjiang, your family is great. A brigade commander who starts asking for trouble as soon as he arrives, a deputy battalion commander who can't even beat the company commander, and a pair of military dependents who break into other people's homes at will." Commander Chen pointed at He Shuangjiang and said.
He Shuangjiang's face turned red, as so many military dependents were watching him.
"This, hasn't he entered yet?" Liu Cuilan said in a low voice.
"You took the bean sprouts from Sister Liu Qian's house. You are robbers." Lin Momo shouted at Liu Cuilan.
"You asked Sister Liu Qian for flour and rice, but she didn't have any. You took their bean sprouts and left. I was afraid of you, so as soon as I opened the door you said you were going to our greenhouse to get vegetables."
"Isn't this just robbery?"
"That's right. There has never been such a person in our family compound."
"That's right. In the past, Ge Mei didn't dare to break into other people's homes to take things like this."
The military dependents around were talking about it.
Political Commissar Cao glanced at Cheng Jinghao. After all, they had just arrived, so this matter didn't want to make a big fuss, but it didn't want to be let off so easily.
"Brigade Commander He, tell me how your family plans to end this matter. My wife was frightened, and you took things from Captain Xu's home. You have to give an explanation to both of your families." Cheng Jinghao looked at He Shuangjiang.
"Your family doesn't have anything damaged. Just give us the price for the bean sprouts." He Shuangjiang glanced at Commander Chen and said.
"Then Commander, please ask the Military Commission to handle this matter." Cheng Jinghao looked at Commander Chen.
"In a moment, I'll trouble everyone to be our witnesses."
"No problem, Deputy Commander Cheng." The military dependents around echoed.
"Jing Hao, they just arrived. Please give face to Biao and the army commander. Once the Military Commission comes, the family of Brigade Commander He will have to go to jail for a few years." Political Commissar Cao said with a smile.
Cheng Jinghao thought to himself, 'Old fox. '
"Then it depends on what Brigade Commander He thinks." Cheng Jinghao looked at He Shuangjiang.
He Shuangjiang clenched his fists. This situation had happened before in the Southern Military Region.
Generally, soldiers and their families who are lower in rank than him would not say anything. Unexpectedly, Cheng Jinghao is such a tough guy, and his wife is also such a tough guy.
"We are willing to pay compensation." He Shuangjiang said.
"Aunt Zhou, you don't have to pay compensation. You have money." Lin Momo said at the right time in Zhou Weihong's arms.
Zhou Weihong saw the smile on Lin Momo's face from a good angle, and she almost couldn't hold it back. "Momo, you've been wronged today."
"Comrade Lin's greenhouse was built for trial planting in our Tibetan area. This is witnessed by everyone in the military region." Commander Chen spoke.
"Yes, Comrade Lin taught us how to make bean sprouts, which is why we have such a high yield."
"That's right. This is for all of us and for Tibet."
The military dependents looked at this family with even more anger, and even began to think of using them as a greenhouse.
The He family had never thought that this greenhouse had such a reason. This was not just a matter of getting rid of the boredom. Their family still had to live in the Southwestern Military Region, in this Tibetan area.
Besides, if Lin Momo really refused to give in and called the Military Commission, Liu Cuihua and He Huilan would really have to go to jail.
"Oh, each of us will compensate you." He Shuangjiang gritted his teeth.
One is already a lot in this era, but in a family compound, especially in the homes of a brigade commander or deputy battalion commander, there are actually not many.
"One dollar, who in the family compound doesn't have it?" Li He said.
"That's right, what's the use of money? It can't buy anything." The older military dependent also said.
"Add 10 kilograms of food coupons to each family," He Shuangjiang added.
"That's it, then." Political Commissar Cao knew to stop while he was ahead. This was good enough, any more would be fine.
Finally, Commander Chen asked the guards to follow the He family to their home to get the tickets and money, and the He family could not deny it even if they wanted to.
The crowd dispersed. Zhou Weihong pinched Lin Momo's little face, smiled and said, "You little devil." Then she followed Political Commissar Cao back.
Lin Momo and Cheng Jinghao entered the room. As soon as Lin Momo entered the room, she rubbed her thighs hard.
There was coal burning at home, and she didn't wear very thick pants. She was wearing a thick cotton jacket when she went to open the door. The pinch just now really hurt her.
"What's wrong?" Cheng Jinghao helped her sit down.
"I strangled myself to death in order to play the role of a self-torture stratagem." Lin Momo had a sad face.
"You're really good, look." Cheng Jinghao said as he pulled down her pants.
"Do it yourself." There was no need to be pretentious between husband and wife, so Lin Momo took off her pants.
She was white, and even a little force could cause bruises, not to mention that she had hit him hard, and her thighs were already severely bruised.
"Tsk tsk." Cheng Jinghao felt distressed, "Why are you doing this?"
"We have to vent our anger for Sister Liu Qian, or we can just let them go." Lin Momo said angrily.
"It's fine if they don't come to provoke us, but if they do come, we won't let them go back easily."
Cheng Jinghao didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so he took out the ointment from the space and applied it on her.
"Don't do this again in the future. It hurts me." Cheng Jinghao held her hand and kissed her.
"I understand." Lin Momo nodded.
"You should rest at home. You still have to go to training." Cheng Jinghao said, touching her hair.
He had just received the news and was afraid that she would suffer a loss, so he followed Commander Chen and the others.
"Go ahead, it's okay. I'll cook meat for you in the evening. We earned a dollar and a pound of food coupons today. Let's celebrate." Lin Momo raised an eyebrow at him.
"Okay." Cheng Jinghao curled his lips. Those two were old foxes, and this one was a young fox.
Little did they know that the two old foxes were laughing in the office.
After receiving one dollar and a pound of food coupons from the guard, Liu Qian hurried to her aunt's house to buy a few eggs, went to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy two bottles of cream, and went to Lin Momo's house.
"Sister Liu Qian, why are you here in such a cold day?" Lin Momo welcomed her in and made her a cup of brown sugar water to warm her up.
"I'm here to thank you." Liu Qian put the things on the table in the main room.
"Take it back, okay?" Lin Momo waved her hands repeatedly.
"Momo, you have to keep it. That half pound of bean sprouts is not worth so much money. If it weren't for you, you would have suffered this loss. Maybe she will come again next time." Liu Qian said, holding Lin Momo's hand.
After all, Liu Cuihua is different from Ge Mei. Liu Cuihua's man is the brigade commander, and she is a country woman. She has to bear some losses for Xu Gang.
Lin Momo knew that if she didn't accept it, she would feel bad.
"Okay then. Here are some bean sprouts. You can take them back and have them as a dish for dinner." Lin Momo took some bean sprouts from the greenhouse, actually from the supermarket, and gave them to Liu Qian.
"Okay, then I won't be polite with you." After sitting for a while, Liu Qian went back. The children were almost out of school, and she had to pick them up.
