"Captain Xia, it seems you're quite familiar with the theater. Have you been there before?" Qiao Wanyue asked with a smile.
Xiahou Xing froze, as if he had seen a ghost.
"What nonsense are you talking about? I've never been there."
Qiao Wanyue smiled and said, "That's strange. How do you know where there are pretty girls? Have you seen them or not? I thought Captain Xia had been there. Why don't you ask the Revolutionary Committee to see where the theater Captain Xia mentioned is?"
Despite the harsh crackdown on societal morals, he talks about theaters all the time.
This shows a lack of respect for the Revolutionary Committee.
Xiahou Xing said, "You little girl, I was just saying it casually, why are you making such a big deal out of it? I won't argue with a woman like you."
Qiao Wanyue laughed even harder, "Captain Xia misspoke, he should just admit it. Why bring up my gender? Even the top leaders have said that women hold up half the sky."
How come, in Captain Xia's words, a pretty girl like me has to go to the theater?
"Well, I come from a poor background. I don't know what a theater is. Captain Xia, could you explain it to me?" She smiled, but each word she spoke was more cutting than the last.
Xiahou Xing had a fine sheen of sweat on his forehead.
If he admits it, his position as captain will be over.
He wanted to slap himself; he was so excited that he blurted out whatever came to mind.
But how could a captain in his forties or fifties apologize to a teenage girl?
He stiffened his neck and turned his head away from Qiao Wanyue.
Qiao Wanyue wouldn't let him off the hook, saying, "Even a child knows to admit their mistakes and correct them. It seems that Captain Xia is not even as good as a child."
"Shut up."
"Who are you to talk to here? Go home." Qiao Sheng came out again to seek attention.
Captain Geng's lips twitched.
Qiao Sheng, that fool, still hasn't realized that his good daughter has no intention of paying attention to him at all.
Moreover, Xiahou Xing is not just talking nonsense. If the Revolutionary Committee had heard what he just said, being dismissed from his post would be a minor matter.
Everyone silently took two steps back.
Stay away from those two idiots.
Qiao Wanyue pulled the captain aside and smiled as she faced Qiao Sheng.
"Captain Qiao, do you also agree with what Captain Xia said?"
Qiao Sheng roared, "You give me...!"
Qiao Wanyue interrupted him directly, "Captain Xia disrespects women. I only offered a few words of explanation, and it seems Captain Qiao shares the same view. In that case, we'll have to call the Revolutionary Committee."
After all, as the captain of a brigade, if his ideology and conduct are improper, it will affect not just one person, but even an entire brigade, hundreds of people. If this influence spreads, what will become of our entire society?
"Doesn't that mean they're all people who look down on women and disrespect the country?"
Upon hearing this, Xiahou Xing and Qiao Sheng were both terrified.
"What nonsense are you talking about?" That's a serious charge.
Qiao Wanyue argued vehemently, “Women can hold up half the sky, but Captain Xia said I shouldn’t be here, but should go home to nurse my child, and that I should go to the theater. Isn’t that questioning his words?”
Captain Qiao even jumped out and told me to go home. Isn't that in line with what Captain Xia said?
"What a pair of opportunists! The reason our country can't develop is because of people with such distorted ideas. If we don't kick these people out, when will our people ever be able to live a good life?" She kept chattering away.
Yang Dongliang was stunned, but that didn't stop him from clapping and cheering, "Good! Down with the speculators and profiteers! Down with Xiahou Xinghe and Qiao Sheng! Men, take these two to the Revolutionary Committee!"
Qiao Sheng.......
Xiahou Xing......
Everyone: We told you not to mess with the people from Xiahe Village.
Why bother?
When the situation reached a stalemate, an elderly man with white hair stepped forward.
"Who wants to speculate and profiteer?"
Qiao Wanyue bravely stood up and pointed out Qiao Sheng and Xiahou Xing, "Reporting to the leader, it was the two of them who looked down on and belittled women."
