In the afternoon, Gu Chen took advantage of the training session to make things difficult for several people, ostensibly by saying it was for extra practice.
They didn't complain.
But after practicing for four or five days in a row, I started to taste something different.
It wasn't just Gu Chen who gave them extra training; even Political Commissar Wang was making things difficult for them.
If you still haven't noticed anything wrong, you might as well pack your bags and leave.
When he got back and asked, he found out that while he was training hard outside, his wife at home was holding him back.
"You should go apologize to Political Commissar Wang and Regiment Commander Gu's wife right away. I was thinking that I've been training extra every day these past few days and nothing has been going right. It turns out that you were the one who tripped me up behind my back."
Guo Shuwen looked shocked. "Why should I apologize to her? I wasn't wrong. She's just a country bumpkin. What family can grow vegetables and raise chickens in their own compound?"
“You’re not even going that way, so why do you care if they feed their chickens or grow vegetables?” The man’s face darkened, and he said directly, “I’m telling you, you’d better apologize to me today, or you can pack your things and go back tomorrow.”
"Min Liangjun! How could you side with outsiders! You're actually siding with outsiders, and now you want to send me back?" Guo Shuwen's smile vanished, and she threw the things in her hand on the ground.
"Even Commander Gu can wash clothes and cook for his wife, what about you? I wash clothes and cook for you every day, and now you want to send me back? Fine, I'll wait until you beg me to come back!"
The two were arguing fiercely at home. From the windows and balconies of their building, one could see He Cuiping and Lin Yuxi's courtyard.
The reason most people want to move out of the yard is because they feel that the yard lacks privacy, right?
Moreover, the buildings and courtyards are not far apart, so anyone with good eyesight can see everything going on inside.
They've set up a shed now, which provides some privacy. Although you can't see much, you can at least see that Gu Chen washed and hung up the clothes.
Besides Guo Shuwen's family, the atmosphere at Zou Lengyan's family was no better.
As soon as the man returned, she immediately helped him hang his clothes on the hanger.
"What's wrong? You look so pale. Did something go wrong?" Zou Lengyan looked at his face and noticed that he kept glancing at her. She suddenly realized, "What did I do to upset you? Was it because I took the job at the activity room?"
"If you don't like me being in the public eye, I won't go anymore."
As Zou Lengyan spoke, she glanced at his expression and noticed a momentary change in his expression when he mentioned this matter. She thought to herself, "It really is this."
"I heard you went to help Battalion Commander Zhang's wife bully Political Commissar Wang and Regiment Commander Gu's wives?" The man's voice turned stern.
Zou Lengyan sighed and recounted what had happened that day, completely absolving herself of any responsibility in her words.
"Guo Shuwen is too narrow-minded. What does it matter to her if other people grow vegetables and raise chickens? Everyone's family has been farmers for generations. In the future, you should have less contact with people like that. Go buy a gift and send it to Political Commissar Wang and Regiment Commander Gu's homes. You didn't handle things properly that day either. In the future, you should avoid taking on these kinds of things yourself, lest you do more harm than good."
The man gave her a lecture, but he didn't go too far.
Compared to Guo Shuwen's family situation, Zou Lengyan's situation is much better.
I heard that Guo Shuwen packed his things and left the family compound in the afternoon, without even having lunch, and didn't stay for a moment longer.
But her man not only didn't chase after her, he didn't even say a word to stop her. Guo Shuwen was furious, but she couldn't bring herself to go back, so she left in a huff.
