As Li Zesheng was speaking, Ma Qiang pushed the door open and led the political commissar in.
"Political Commissar, my wife is pregnant. I'm going to be a father."
As soon as he saw the political commissar, Li Zesheng happily shared the news that he was going to be a father with him. At this moment, he wanted to use the loudspeaker in the barracks to shout everywhere: My wife is pregnant, I am going to be a father, I, Li Zesheng, can do it.
Li Zesheng, immersed in joy, did not notice that the expressions of the political commissar and others who had just entered had changed.
Fan Aihua, who came with the political commissar, blurted out, "Oh, Lieutenant Li, this is the first time I've seen someone wear a green hat on their head, and wear it so happily..."
Before she could finish her words, her man Chen Wei pulled her aside and said, "You better stop talking. Why do you keep saying everything?"
Even if that's true, you should have kept it secret from Lieutenant Li. How can you tell someone in front of him that he's happy to be a father?
Li Zesheng had always had some issues with Chen Wei's wife, Fan Aihua. Now, after hearing what she said, he immediately became furious. He sat on the edge of the hospital bed, hugged his wife, and said aggrievedly:
"Political Commissar, you don't know. The doctor at the First People's Hospital just examined me and said that I'm not infertile, but my sperm is weak, which means the probability of getting a woman pregnant is very low.
Thanks to the great leader, my wife finally got pregnant, but she fainted because of Fan Aihua's anger. If anything happens to the child in my wife's belly, then our Li family will be extinct, right?
My grandfather had pity on me. He went to the battlefield at the age of twelve, was covered in wounds, and when he got old, he would have no descendants..."
“???”
The people in the room were stunned when they saw Li Zesheng crying and complaining: Is this still the same Lieutenant Li who was invincible and brave on the battlefield?
Liu Ruyue's reaction was calmer: after all, when they were at home, the man often acted like a spoiled child towards her.
The others were first shocked by Li Zesheng's show of weakness, and then shocked by the content of the man's words:
"Can you give birth?"
"Can you really give birth?"
"No way? Didn't the 44th Hospital say you can't have children?"
…
Amidst everyone's shocked questions, Li Zesheng was ecstatic in his heart: Humph, everyone thinks that I can't have children, but I can be hated.
Suppressing his inner ecstasy, Li Zesheng tried to remain calm and said, "Political Commissar, the doctor at the 44th Hospital only said that it would affect fertility, but he didn't say that I couldn't have children.
I just had a test at the First People's Hospital using the latest technology. I can have a baby, but the probability is low..."
Liu Ruyue felt the man's joy and was afraid that if he said a few more words, she would be exposed. She immediately lay weakly in Li Zesheng's arms, raised her head, looked at the political commissar with tearful eyes, and choked up:
"Political Commissar, you must make the decision for me. I am a pure girl. Ever since the day I married Comrade Zesheng, I have made up my mind to live a good life with him. Even if we don't have children, we must be loyal to each other as we are to our Party.
But, the group of sisters-in-law, led by the sister-in-law of the Fan family, have been saying all day that I am unfaithful and cheating on men. Not only did they make me faint with anger, but just now they even said in front of you, the political commissar, that Comrade Zesheng was cuckolded. They are trying to spit on me and make me dirty and stink, and force me to die..."
The woman spoke so sorrowfully that Li Zesheng felt distressed: "Political Commissar, when I think about me risking my life on a mission outside while my wife is being bullied by others in the family compound, my heart feels like it's being stabbed by a knife.
Political Commissar, you must take charge of our affairs. We just moved into the family compound, and I don’t know where we’ve offended anyone, but we’re being bullied like this…”
“…”
The political commissar looked at Li Zesheng's aggrieved look and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: I didn't expect that you are such a good actor. No matter who is wronged, you will not be wronged.
However, even if he didn't give face to Li Zesheng, he had to give face to his old leader.
Therefore, his expression became increasingly gloomy, and he shouted at Fan Aihua, "Comrade Fan Aihua, what's going on?"
Fan Aihua listened to Li Zesheng and his wife complaining about her back and forth. She was so panicked that she kept saying in defense: "No, no, I heard it from others..."
Before she could finish her words, Chen Wei started scolding her: "You just say what others say. Don't you have a brain?"
Fan Aihua didn't dare to refute the man after being scolded. She shrank her neck, as if she really realized that she had done something wrong. With red eyes, she apologized to Liu Ruyue: "Sister Liu, this is all my fault. I apologize to you. Please be magnanimous and don't bother with me..."
"Come on, sister-in-law, when you guys were saying I was cheating on you, you said it so conspicuously, as if you had seen it with your own eyes. Now the whole family compound must have heard that I, Liu Ruyue, was cheating on Li Zesheng, right?
This matter just passed like that, and others still thought that I, Liu Ruyue, really cheated on her husband and was too guilty to dare to argue. "
Liu Ruyue is not a soft-hearted person. This group of women have been saying bad things about her behind her back for more than 20 days. If she lets them off so easily now, won’t anyone be able to bully her in the future?
This time, she had to make an example of someone to scare these women so that they wouldn't dare to talk nonsense about her again.
"Then, what are you going to do? Are you going to let me die?"
After hearing what Liu Ruyue said, Fan Aihua was very angry: I am not the only one who said that, why do you only blame me?
"Haha, sister-in-law, I don't have such thoughts. I didn't die when all of you ganged up on me and accused me of cheating on my husband. I just wanted an apology, but you said I forced you to die. Wouldn't that mean I must have died hundreds of times before?"
Liu Ruyue snorted inwardly: You think you can use those shrewish tactics of crying, making a scene, and then threatening to commit suicide to make me compromise? You're dreaming!
Liu Ruyue has no morals and will not accept any moral kidnapping.
Li Zesheng saw his wife gasping for breath because of Fan Aihua again, and she looked like she was about to faint. He immediately hugged his wife tightly and yelled at Chen Wei:
"Chen Wei, what does your wife mean? She must force her to have a miscarriage and make our Li family extinct before she's satisfied?"
"No, no, Lieutenant..."
Hearing Li Zesheng's accusation, Chen Wei became extremely nervous and slapped Fan Aihua in the face: "Shut up!"
Seeing that another quarrel was about to break out, the political commissar immediately stepped out to stop them: "Comrade Liu, you have been wronged in this matter. Don't worry, I will investigate it thoroughly and give you an explanation."
After saying that, he glared at Chen Wei fiercely and left with his men.
He originally brought people to apologize, hoping to make a big deal out of a small matter, but he didn't know that Chen Wei's wife just couldn't control her mouth...
