No one in the crowd spoke; they hadn't expected Jiang Huan to say that.
For a long time, people have either tried to please their superior's wife, or they have their superior's wife help them with things and resolve lawsuits.
"Commander, I was wrong." Zhou Bing felt extremely guilty.
Three years have passed. Zhou Bing has been here for three years, and his wife, who was initially bright and generous, has become increasingly taciturn.
I stopped talking to myself about what happened during the day. Things only started to get a little better after I found a job last year.
"Write a 3,000-word self-criticism and hand it in to me tomorrow. If there are any more similar cases in the military, the person in charge will be suspended from duty and sent home for rectification," Jiang Huan said sternly.
The onlookers gasped in shock; this was serious.
"Go back, everyone," Jiang Huan said softly.
Tears streamed down Gu Cuier and Zhang Mei's faces, and their legs went weak.
I always saw Commander Jiang with a kind and gentle demeanor, I never expected him to be so ruthless.
If this affects the careers of the men in the family, then they will all be sent back to their hometowns.
Just thinking about the two of them makes me shudder.
Neither of them knew how they got home.
After closing the door, Jiang Huan walked towards Tao Ying with a guilty look on his face. "I'm sorry, honey, I've caused you trouble."
"Why apologize? When you make a choice, you have to be prepared for what might happen next." Tao Ying was very satisfied with Jiang Huan's actions.
She stood on tiptoe, cupped Jiang Huan's face in her hands, and kissed him twice forcefully.
"Wife..." Jiang Huan couldn't stand Tao Ying's actions and immediately wanted to...
"Let's eat first. Have you taken a shower?" Tao Ying let go of Jiang Huan.
When Jiang Huan returned, his hair was still wet; it was as if he had washed it.
"I've washed it." Jiang Huan said, slightly out of breath.
"Let's eat first," Tao Ying said, pulling Jiang Huan back with her.
"Wife, I'm sorry, I made you suffer." After returning home, Zhou Bing looked at Wang Xiumei with deep remorse.
"Why apologize? Let's live our own lives. I didn't mean to curry favor with the commander's wife. I was just thinking that since you guys went on a mission, she was all alone and had just arrived. I was worried she might not be used to it, so I thought I'd go and ask her. I couldn't go empty-handed, so I brought a pot of peaches. They weren't even the best ones, just the kind our parents buy. I picked out the good ones and brought them to her. Who would have thought she'd send back a pot of vegetables with ribs, and then those two shameless people, Gu Cuier and her husband, would be eyeing it?"
Wang Xiumei was genuinely afraid of those two people. Over the past three years, she had been bullied by them countless times, and unfortunately, she wasn't the kind of person who was good with words.
He's not as capable as his sister-in-law, and Zhou Bing himself comes from the countryside.
It was because I was admitted to university while serving in the military that I have achieved what I have today.
Wang Xiumei could not allow her own affairs to affect her husband's career.
"The commander is right. We didn't do anything wrong. My wife is also very forgiving. We shouldn't blame ourselves," Zhou Bing said guiltily.
“Your shift is too demanding, otherwise we won’t go.” Zhou Bing still felt sorry for Wang Xiumei.
Wang Xiumei works at a garment factory in the town, and she has to ride her bicycle for more than half an hour every day.
Sometimes they even have to work overtime until 7 or 8 pm. Only three military wives are left in the entire compound.
Those who remain either cannot live well or cannot endure hardship.
“What’s so hard about it? Our kids are all grown up now, and Xiao Bao is in daycare. I’m so bored at home.” Wang Xiumei was definitely not going to work.
I only earn about twenty yuan a month.
If it's peak season, you can work overtime every day and still earn over thirty yuan.
Does he hate money or something?
Zhou Bing certainly knew what Wang Xiumei was talking about—the peaches in the house were all bought by Wang Xiumei, and many of them were the kind that were a little rotten.
However, Wang Xiumei would cut off the rotten parts and let the three children eat the ones that weren't rotten.
This time, I'll definitely give my sister-in-law something that isn't spoiled.
Zhou Bing examined the peaches that Gu Cuier brought today and found that most of them were rotten, and some were even black.
They must have kept the non-rotten ones at home and sent the rotten ones away.
The sister-in-law could naturally tell who was sincere and who was feigning.
Moreover, these two are getting bolder and bolder, daring to provoke even the regimental commander's wife.
She really finds her husband's clothes too tiring to wear.
Commander Jiang has both military achievements and abilities, and he also has a good family.
If it weren't for the fact that Commander Jiang's elder brother also held a high position, Commander Jiang would have been promoted long ago.
What happened in the evening sent shockwaves throughout the entire residential compound.
Let's not mention that Gu Cuier and Zhang Mei were beaten.
Other women were also warned.
Jiang Huan was not from a peasant background, so no one could afford to offend him.
When are women in family compounds most confident? Of course, it's when the man cares about you and is willing to stand up for you.
Now, the number one person in the entire residential compound who is not to be messed with has changed from Gu Cuier to Tao Ying.
After all, this is the person who can decide the life and death of the family.
As for what others think, Tao Ying and Jiang Huan have no idea.
Because the two of them had completely forgotten themselves.
The two are such a perfect match.
When Tao Ying woke up the next day, it was already ten o'clock.
After eating the breakfast Jiang Huan had left for him, he continued with his own business.
Tao Ying stayed with Jiang Huan for seven days in total, but she couldn't stay any longer.
"I'm going back to Shanghai tomorrow. If there's not much to do there, I'll be back in three days. If there's a lot to do, I'll be back in seven days," Tao Ying said softly to Jiang Huan after finishing her business.
The main problem is that it's been too frequent these past few days, and Tao Ying's body can't handle it anymore. She plans to rest for a couple of days.
"It'll take that long?" Jiang Huan immediately looked aggrieved.
It's not good to say no to her, since my wife has so many things to take care of.
“It’s still a long time. I can only stay with you in Shanghai this month. Chunni’s due date is in two months, and I have to go home then,” Tao Ying said softly.
"I know, I just can't bear to part with her," Jiang Huan said, his voice muffled as he buried his head in Tao Ying's chest.
"Don't keep taking leave. I'll come to see you after Chunni gives birth and finishes her postpartum confinement. How about we each take a month off?" Tao Ying coaxed softly.
"Then aren't you too tired?" Jiang Huan was thinking about changing jobs again.
"You can't keep thinking about changing jobs, it's really affecting your promotion." Tao Ying pinched Jiang Huan's cheek hard.
"Understood!" Jiang Huan replied softly.
The next morning, Tao Ying unusually got up at eight o'clock.
I grabbed my suitcase and headed straight out the door.
Gu Cuier and Zhang Mei are no longer at the intelligence station at the entrance.
Ding Yong and Fang Hui strictly forbade the two of them from going out and gossiping.
If there's a next time, I'll have to go back to my hometown.
When Tao Ying came out, everyone looked over again. As Tao Ying opened the car door, a woman walked over.
"Sister-in-law, can I hitch a ride with you to town?" the woman asked softly.
“I’m going to Shanghai and I won’t be coming back. I’m not familiar with the town you mentioned. If it’s on your way, I can give you a ride, but I can’t make a special detour for you,” Tao Ying replied softly.
