Chapter 183: Report Commander Duan in front of the new leader!

The corridor, which was not spacious to begin with, was now packed with people.

Li Xingping's face changed and she was about to scold Cheng Xueru when she heard Huang Chunmei's voice behind her.

"Oh, Sister Liao, please be magnanimous and don't bother with Cheng Xueru. Her husband died in such a tragic way. You didn't go to the battlefield, so you definitely don't know that her husband's head and body were separated!"

Cheng Xueru suddenly felt sad, her eyes widened, "You are talking nonsense."

"Whether I am talking nonsense or not, you can ask Wang Ziru and you will know. Your man died so tragically. The commander felt it was too tragic. He was afraid that your family would not be able to bear it if he was sent back, so he asked Wang Ziru to sew him up." Huang Chunmei laughed.

"Impossible! Peng Zhengyu is just dead, his head and body are definitely not separated. You women dare to spread rumors. The new leader is here, and I will teach you a lesson." Cheng Xueru's tone was threatening, and she pointed the flint at the group of women standing in Zhai's house, her eyes already red.

In a flash, she turned her head to look at Wang Ziru, her voice trembling, "Sister Ziru, Peng Zhengyu is not beheaded, right?"

Wang Ziru was shocked. She didn't expect that Cheng Xueru was Peng Zhengyu's wife.

She had just heard from Baoer and her elder brother after returning home that, thanks to Miss Xueru, the two men had not starved to death these days.

Wang Ziru didn't know how to thank such a kind-hearted girl...

so!

She absolutely could not let Cheng Xueru fall into great grief again.

I would rather deceive her and make her feel better in her life.

Wang Ziru held Cheng Xueru's arm affectionately and wiped away the tears on her face with her fingers, "Of course not! Don't listen to other people's nonsense."

He turned to look at Huang Chunmei who was standing at the back, "Who among you dares to spread rumors and slander Peng Zhengyu's reputation? When the chief comes back tomorrow, I will be the first one to sue her."

"Humph! That's the fact. With so many soldiers on the battlefield, who wouldn't know that?" Huang Chunmei had suffered at the hands of Wang Ziru before, so she didn't dare to confront her head-on. She turned around and left.

After walking a few steps, he turned back, deliberately making Cheng Xueru feel uncomfortable and painful, and shouted: "Cheng Xueru, are you a fool?"

"When your man was brought back, he was covered up tightly and wore white gloves and shoes and socks. Why? You are stupid, but you don't allow others to say anything."

"No! No, you are spreading rumors! I will go to the chief's office to sue you tomorrow." Cheng Xueru held back tears and her shoulders trembled.

Wang Ziru snatched the fire tongs from Cheng Xueru's hand, pointed at Liao Fengjiao and the others, and said fiercely, "Whoever dares to fart again, the guy in my hands has no eyes."

"You stinky woman! How dare you treat me like this? Has your man never been in confinement?" Liao Fengjiao was completely furious. Her face darkened slightly and she shouted coldly, "Hand over all the food that you bought with my man's money."

"Your man? Humph, yes, the rumors you heard are all true!" Wang Ziru held Cheng Xueru with one hand, pointed the lance at Liao Fengjiao, smiled smugly, and said, "Commander Duan not only fined your man's salary, but also kicked him out of the Ninth Division. Why, you don't know?"

"What did you say?"

Liao Fengjiao was shocked.

Hearing this, Wang Ziru was helpless. It seemed that Liao Fengjiao was going to get angry. It was too discouraging to say this in public...

"Don't you have so many bootlickers around you? Those old women who instigated you to come down and make trouble with me, didn't they tell you about such an important transfer order?"

Li Juan and others were so angry that they wanted to rush over and slap Wang Ziru a few times.

Dare to call them old women.

"No! You are spreading rumors!" Liao Fengjiao pointed at Wang Ziru with her fingers trembling violently and warned: "If you dare to spread rumors about my man, you will be in trouble."

Just now she hesitated for a moment, wondering whether to forcibly take away the grain and rapeseed oil from the Zhai family.

But after thinking about it, she still wanted to see how Wang Ziru would admit her mistakes. She never thought that Wang Ziru would actually...

Liao Fengjiao has always been in a high position in this compound, looking down on everyone.

"Who told you about the food distribution? These old women are not only bad, but also stupid. If you fall for their tricks, when the new leader arrives tomorrow, not only will you lose your man's skin, but it is very likely that your son's future will also be ruined."

Liao Fengjiao's body was stiff, her eyes fixed on the woman opposite her.

Li Xingping and others had been making a fuss, but now they learned that Xu Changhe was punished by Commander Duan and transferred out of the 9th Division, and they were caught off guard.

The group of women on the third floor were wondering how to end the situation when a cold shout was heard from downstairs.

"Who is the one who is causing trouble and why are you still awake so late?!"

This cold shout scared all the women in the corridor so much that they all turned around and ran back to their homes.

The family courtyard was soon filled with the sound of hurried footsteps.

Wang Ziru gently patted Cheng Xueru's shoulder and said softly, "When you feel better, I will tell you something about Peng Zhengyu."

Having said that, he gently pushed her into the house.

After that, he sorted out his emotions, appeared at the corridor, and said to the night shift warriors holding flashlights below: "It's okay. Thank you for your hard work."

"Sister-in-law, you have worked hard all the way. Go to bed early."

"Okay, let's get ready for bed."

Wang Ziru smiled and waved to the warriors downstairs. When she turned around, she found a woman standing behind her.

"Sister, you just said that Xu Changhe was transferred? Is it true?" Zhao Cuilan stood in her home, listening for a long time with the door closed. She thought Liao Fengjiao would teach the woman next door a lesson in public, but she didn't expect that after watching the show for a long time, there was no fight, but the shocking news that Xu Changhe was transferred was revealed.

In the Zhai family's small living room, Zhai Qingsong felt very distressed when he saw Cheng Xueru's heartbroken look.

Zhao Cuilan came from outside the house to ask, and Zhai Qingsong's face changed, and he walked out quickly, "Sister-in-law! You go and have a rest, I'll light the stove."

Wang Ziru has been married to the Zhai family for five years and is very familiar with her uncle's temperament.

Seeing that the woman next door was not liked by her uncle, she handed the fire tongs to her uncle, glanced at Zhao Cuilan indifferently, and turned into the house.

Baoer pulled her mother and Aunt Xueru into the master bedroom and said, imitating Cheng Xueru's words, "Mom! The auntie who lives next door to our house is very mean. Don't pay any attention to her."

"What did she do to you? Were you bullied by her when your mother was not at home?"

The young man was angry. "We don't have any beehive coal. We wanted to borrow two, but she refused. She even scolded me this afternoon."

"What? Are you saying that the woman who just spoke to me cursed you?!"

Seeing Cheng Xueru's disheartened look, Wang Ziru hesitated for a moment, staring at Bao'er's indignant face. After a moment, she whispered, "Mom is back, and no one will dare to bully you anymore..."

That night, after the peace talks in Bai Teng Town ended.

The last batch of soldiers and leaders evacuated from the town and returned to the Xiong District troops by car overnight.

The next morning was Monday.

The compound seemed to have returned to its former tranquility.

The women get up early to cook and then send their children to school in town.

But inside the compound, there were almost no scenes of women gathering together to chat like they used to.

When Zhai Qingsong got up in the morning, he used a pair of tongs to open the iron cover and found that the stove that had been placed in the corridor overnight still had a faint flame.

He hurried to the balcony and clamped a piece of honeycomb coal on top. He waited until the new honeycomb coal was completely burned before replacing the one underneath.

After a while, I saw women sending their children to school.

"Bao'er, are you hungry? Wait a moment, I'll cook you a bowl of egg noodles." Looking back and seeing that Bao'er had already put on his clothes and came out of the house, Zhai Qingsong put down the fire tongs, walked into the small living room, pulled the child to sit down, and buttoned a few buttons on his clothes.

Baoer sat on the pony, yawning, "Uncle, can I go to school today?"

"You want to go to school? Wait until your dad comes back."

"When will my dad come back? All the kids in the compound have gone to school, and I'm the only one at home..." The little guy was itching to go to the kindergarten in town.

Zhai Qingsong turned his head and looked at the master bedroom door which was still tightly closed.

Last night, Baoer slept with him.

So I don’t know what time my younger brother and sister-in-law get up.

The two were looking back at the master bedroom when the door opened. Cheng Xueru came out with a pale face and closed the door behind her. "Brother Zhai, I'm going home first."

"I'll take you back."

"Uncle, what should I do?" Baoer hurriedly hugged his uncle's legs.

Zhai Qingsong sighed: "Let's send Aunt Xueru off together."

Thinking that the honeycomb coal on the stove was about to catch fire, Zhai Qingsong asked Cheng Xueru to wait for a few minutes.

After he replaced the beehive coal that had been burning in the stove overnight and turned off the stove, he took Baoer with him to send Cheng Xueru back to Li Village.

He was worried about Cheng Xueru's condition and had to see her go home.

When they arrived at the Cheng family in Li Village, Grandpa Cheng Xueru was preparing breakfast, so he invited them to have breakfast and asked Zhai Qingsong to help with some farm work.

The military family compound became lively again when only one group of soldiers returned to the army.

Zhai Ximo hurried back to his family compound with his backpack on his back. When he arrived at the front door, he found that it was ajar and Bao'er and his elder brother did not seem to be at home.

He pushed open the door to the master bedroom and saw his wife sleeping soundly with the quilt in her arms.

"You are such a brave woman. You don't even know someone has stolen you away." Zhai Ximo didn't care that he was dirty. He walked to the bed, laid his thin body on the quilt, and kissed the sleeping woman.

"Hmm..."

Wang Ziru was still half asleep. She opened her eyes and thought she was dreaming. "Why are you back? Didn't you say you would be back in a few days?"

"The new leader is very efficient! After the talk, he ordered everyone to come back. Look, Commander Duan even came over to support him."

"Commander Duan and Han Suijing came here together?" Wang Ziru could hardly help but sense a hint of sarcasm in the man's words.

Zhai Ximo pecked the woman's warm cheek. "As you wished, the two most powerful leaders of Yunnan Province are here. Today, a consolation meeting for the families of military martyrs will be held in the auditorium. You should not sleep any more. Get up and pack up. All you sanitation workers have to attend."

"A condolence meeting?" Wang Ziru rubbed her sleepy eyes and suddenly remembered something, "Does that mean they will give the family members some kind of pension?"

"Of course."

"What can you do with this? Didn't you see last night that Peng Zhengyu's wife was at our house? She cried all night when she heard that her husband died tragically."

Zhai Ximo also knew Peng Zhengyu's wife, Cheng Xueru, a very sunny girl.

In his spare time, he helps the troops collect food from the surrounding areas, buy vegetables, etc.

He wondered, "Why did Cheng Xueru come to our house last night?"

"Last night, oh, forget it, I won't worry you. I just got home and hadn't even eaten my bowl of noodles when Xu Changhe's woman and a bunch of other women rushed to our house and insisted that I hand over the 100 kilograms of food and 10 kilograms of rapeseed oil that Commander Duan had awarded me."

The couple was being affectionate in the house when Zhang Kang rushed to Zhai's house.

He pushed open the bedroom door and said hastily with a gossipy look on his fat face, "Old Zhai! Go and see what's going on. Xu Changhe's wife found out about his dismissal and she's not convinced. She ran to the new chief to complain and cry."

"Is Xu Changhe a fool? He also let his woman go and cry to the new leader?"

"Come on! Let's go take a look."

Wang Ziru turned her head and looked at Zhang Kang at the door. "I really didn't realize before that you like to watch the fun so much, Captain Zhang. If you have the time, you should hurry up and consummate your marriage with Zhu Yan."

"You."

Zhang Kang smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, we are in the army, you think we are in the countryside."

Still consummating the marriage? When Zhu Yan saw him coming home, she didn't even dare to look at him for another second.

Their married life might be difficult.

Zhai Ximo's interest was also aroused, and he followed Zhang Kang downstairs to the regiment headquarters.

Xu Changhe's transfer order is a done deal, but it all depends on how Han Suijing handles the matter now.

At this moment, Han Suijing arrived at the chief's office. Before he handed over his work to Xu Changhe, he saw Xu Changhe's wife coming uninvited.

When the woman came in, her eyes were red and she cried with tears and snot:

"Over the years, Old Xu has worked diligently for the country. Even if he has no merits, he has worked hard. Why is he demoted and his salary reduced? Commander Duan dismissed Old Xu as he wished. It is obvious that he wants to punish my man."
