With the proof in hand, Lu Xingzhou stood tall and proud, beaming with pride.
Lu's parents also straightened their backs.
Some villagers sympathized with Li Ying, but most wanted to meet the high-ranking leaders from above.
"They're here! They're here!"
Some villagers ran over excitedly.
Soon, a large group of people, led by the old Party Secretary, walked towards the Lu family's house.
Lu Xingzhou immediately recognized the senior leader in the middle as his division commander, and next to him was his superior, Battalion Commander Ye Jingchi.
The middle-aged man walking beside Battalion Commander Ye was undoubtedly the mayor, and those behind him were naturally leaders from lower-level departments.
Lu Xingzhou took a few quick steps, stopped, and saluted.
"Greetings, Commander!"
"Company Commander Lu Xingzhou!"
Commander Yan didn't recognize him at first; it was Ye Jingchi who mentioned it to him.
"Hello, Comrade Lu!"
Commander Yan shook Lu Xingzhou's hand with a broad smile.
Lu Xingzhou's eyes welled up with tears of excitement. He had been in the army for several years and had only ever heard Commander Yan speak. This was the first time he had ever shaken hands with the commander.
Rong Ning is truly his lucky star!
"Company Commander Lu, our division commander has come in person today to take your wife to the military region."
Ye Jingchi stated the reason in an authoritative tone, glancing briefly at the people around him before his gaze lingered on Li Ying for a moment.
When Li Ying saw Ye Jingchi, she was stunned for a moment, and the events of that night suddenly crashed into her mind.
Why did she react that way when she saw this man?
No, Li Ying, this is wrong!
Lu Xingzhou nodded hurriedly: "It is truly an honor to have the division commander come to pick me up in person."
"Don't mention it. This June, when Donghu Lake in Yuncheng was flooded, the soldiers were fighting the flood and some of them contracted malaria. It was your wife who used her secret recipe to brew medicine for the soldiers, helping them recover and successfully complete their mission. Later, your wife handed the recipe over to the military hospital, making a great contribution!"
The division commander was deeply moved when he mentioned this incident.
Lu Xingzhou was somewhat surprised.
In June, Donghu Lake in Yuncheng was flooded...
Rong Ning's home is in Donghu, Yuncheng. It should be around June when she goes back to visit her family.
"You flatter me, Commander!"
"Your wife's righteousness is inseparable from your position as company commander!"
This is an award that makes people excited!
The Lu family will rise to prominence through this opportunity, and Lu Xingzhou's future will also improve with the arrival of this leader.
Lu Xingzhou clenched his fist.
He thought the Li family could help him, but he gained nothing in return.
Rong Ning, however, was different; she could help him get promoted quickly.
Seeing the condition of the house, Ye Jingchi remained calm, but couldn't help asking a question.
"Deputy Company Commander Lu's home?"
Lu Xingzhou gave an awkward smile and was about to say something when his mother rushed over and knelt on the ground with a thud: "My lord! Please help Xingzhou! This shrew has smashed up my house! Arrest her quickly!"
Lu Xingzhou was speechless and quickly pulled his mother up. "Mother, what are you doing? This isn't ancient times; kneeling isn't allowed here."
Lu's mother was embarrassed and didn't dare to look up at the leader. Her hands trembled so much that she didn't know where to put them.
Ye Jingchi's gaze fell on Li Ying again. His grandmother was seriously ill, and the medical expert he knew, Old Man Ji, was abroad, but he recommended this unknown Li Ying.
And he happened to come over just as she was smashing up the house and tearing it apart?
This woman is quite interesting.
Ye Jingchi's grandmother was seriously ill and needed treatment from the renowned medical expert, Dr. Ji. Since Dr. Ji was abroad, he recommended Li Ying.
Because the old man of the Ye family was a great hero of the War of Resistance against Japan and continued to serve as an advisor to the military district after retirement, the division commander specially approved Li Ying to go back with Ye Jingchi to see the old lady first, and then Ye Jingchi would take her to the military hospital.
"Deputy Company Commander Lu, call your wife over here!" Ye Jingchi instructed softly.
The old Party Secretary's face beamed with joy. "Quickly, call your wife over here."
Lu Xingzhou was also very happy and pulled Rong Ning to stand in front of the group.
"This is my wife, Rong Ning!"
Rong Ning greeted everyone politely.
A cold glint appeared on Ye Jingchi's handsome face as his gaze swept over Li Ying and landed on Rong Ning.
"Deputy Company Commander Lu, is she your wife?"
Lu Xingzhou was surprised, then nodded solemnly: "Yes, Rong Ning is my wife, and she gave me a son. Rong Ning is very inspiring. Even so, she studied hard and passed the exam to get a job at the military district hospital. I never expected the leaders to give our family such a great honor..."
“Comrade leader, Rong Ning is indeed my daughter-in-law, the village chief can testify.”
Lu's mother tugged at the village chief.
Even the village chief seemed a little hesitant in front of the high-ranking official. "Yes, yes, Rong Ning is Xing Zhou's wife. Everyone agrees, right?"
The villagers knew that by acknowledging Rong Ning's identity, the village would receive corresponding benefits in the future, and they all nodded in agreement.
The old Party Secretary, completely bewildered, stared at the group of people, his head full of question marks.
What happened? What did he miss?
In the blink of an eye, Lu Xingzhou's wife has changed!
"Deputy Company Commander Lu, may I confirm this?"
Ye Jingchi's expression turned cold.
Lu Xingzhou hurriedly took out the certificate that the village chief had just written and handed it to Ye Jingchi.
It was written in black and white, very clearly: Lu Xingzhou's wife was named Rong Ning.
Ye Jingchi's gaze fell on Li Ying.
In June, when Donghu Lake in Yuncheng was flooded, he led the team to fight the flood and carry out rescue operations.
The woman brewed medicine for the soldier and gave him the secret recipe, saying that she was Lu Xingzhou's wife named Li Ying and lived in Lujia Village.
Given the current situation, it seems that Lu Xingzhou has become ungrateful, and Li Ying has become a discarded woman.
