As soon as they entered the city, Liu's mother and Liu Baoqin thought that something must have happened, but Liu Baoqin was a little worried.
"Mom, do you think something happened to Baogen?"
"You crow mouth, bah bah bah, how could my precious root come out?"
Liu Yu stopped talking in anger.
"Mom, it's not easy to get into the city. Let's go to the supply and marketing building later. You see, I haven't made new clothes for a long time." Liu Baoqin acted coquettishly.
Liu's mother glared at her daughter. "You debt collector, I really owed you money in my past life." Although she spoke of disdain, she didn't say anything to refuse.
"By the way, a phone call will come in a while. You and Baoqin go to the supply and marketing building first. I'm going to meet someone." Mother Liu looked at her husband.
"Tsu, don't forget to ask about Hongdou."
"I know." When mentioning her adopted daughter, Liu's mother's expression immediately became indifferent.
Since there was not much work to do in the countryside, the three of them decided to go farther away to make a phone call. At that time, they could also go to the city to buy some things and learn about their adopted daughter's recent situation.
They should also be thankful that they did not go directly to the company to find their acquaintance Liu Baomin, otherwise they might not be able to make the call.
After arriving at the telecommunications bureau, Liu Baoqin was waiting outside while the Liu couple went in.
If you want to make a phone call privately now, you either have to go to a workplace with a phone or register and queue up at the telecommunications bureau.
To make a long-distance call, they needed the long-distance operator to help them make the transfer. It was more than an hour before they finally got through to Liu Baogen.
In the narrow room, Liu's mother's voice was indescribably kind and gentle.
"Baogen, what on earth made you send that telegram?"
"Mom, someone from our army came to investigate my situation. Does my family know about this?"
Mother Liu was startled. "No, when will it be born?"
"It happened just a few days ago, didn't you know anything about it?" Liu Baogen asked anxiously.
Liu's mother quickly asked her husband, "Has anyone from the Baogen unit come to investigate?"
Liu Yu was also stunned. "I don't know."
"Baogen, your father and I don't know, are you mistaken?"
"Mom, how could I be wrong about something like this? Liu Baomin said it himself. Because of his rotten mouth, the army now knows about Hongdou's affairs. Because they knew I had a child bride, I was punished. I was removed from my position as platoon leader and given a serious warning."
"What!" Liu's mother was shocked.
She had always been proud of having a promising son, and she felt superior when talking to people in the village. But now that her son was punished, she was extremely annoyed when she thought that her dignity was lost.
"This Liu Baomin, I'm going to rip his mouth off when I get home!"
He actually dared to cause his Baogen to lose his position as platoon leader and was punished. The hatred between their two families is huge!
"Mom, are you going to settle accounts with Liu Baomin now? Why did the army suddenly want to investigate me? There's nothing unusual going on in my village or back home?"
Mother Liu was about to say no, but suddenly she thought of her adopted daughter who had been away from home for a long time.
After he fell ill, he suddenly became distant from her and even decided to go to the city to find a job.
This girl has never been to school and has no diploma. Why would the job seekers want her? It's obvious that she has no chance. It seems that they were fooled by this girl and let her go to the city.
"It's Hongdou, it must be that damn girl Hongdou!" She gritted her teeth.
"What did Hongdou do?" Liu Baogen asked anxiously.
"That damn girl, after being ill for a while, suddenly said she wanted to go to the city to find a job. It's been a few days, and she hasn't sent any news home. She must be worried because of the letter you sent her."
Liu Baogen's heart tightened. It was a letter. Yes, he wanted to "divorce" Hongdou, his child bride.
"Mom, are you saying that Hongdou holds a grudge against me and reported me to the army?"
"Who else could it be? It must be that damned girl. Wait until I find her. I'll beat her to death. Don't worry. As soon as I find her, I'll take her to your unit and explain everything to your leader."
Liu Baogen smiled bitterly. How could the army deal with him so hastily just because Hongdou, the child bride, spoke out? Even if he asked someone to explain, it would be useless.
But thinking that he might have been betrayed by his child bride who was not valued by him, Liu Baogen disliked Linglong more and more, and even felt some resentment towards him.
You and I are not the same kind of people. It is a great favor for our family to keep you. But in the end you ruined my life. This will never end!
He couldn't do anything about the leaders who made the punishment decision, but that didn't mean he couldn't deal with his own child bride.
A sinister smile appeared on Liu Baogen's face.
Liu Baoqin had been waiting outside impatiently. When she saw her mother-in-law finally come out, she hurried to the supply and marketing building.
Unexpectedly, he was met with a scolding from his mother.
"Buy, buy, buy. All you do all day is buy. Our money and tickets are blown in like the wind. We never have a single worry." She was angry because her adopted daughter was angry with her.
On the side, Liu Xu still couldn't believe it.
"Could this be a misunderstanding? Hongdou wouldn't do something like this, right?"
"Hmph, you're the only one who's been thinking this. I've always felt she had some bad intentions. Now, let's go to the factory to recruit workers. I want to see how strong this damn girl is."
Liu Baoqin was feeling aggrieved at first because of being scolded, but when she heard the voice that meant she was going to cause trouble for Linglong, she immediately became excited.
In conclusion, the three members of the Liu family visited all the factories in the city, big and small, but they couldn't find anyone like Linglongzi in any of them.
Now, even Liu Xu felt something was wrong.
However, in addition to his doubts, he also had some concerns about Linglong.
"Could something have happened to this girl?" Thinking of this, he began to regret it. If he had known earlier, he would not have let the child enter the city.
There are kidnappers nowadays. What if the girl is kidnapped and taken to another place?
Even Liu's mother felt strange. Where on earth did this damn girl go?
After leaving the army and talking to his family on the phone, Liu Baogen felt even worse.
His handling has been turned into a document and issued, and everyone in the army knows about it now.
Whenever Liu Baogen stayed in the camp, he would receive some strange looks, which made him extremely angry.
But he still had to act like a nobody and smile at everyone he met. Compared to before, he was only more tactful, but besides this tactfulness, he also had more patience and hatred.
After dealing with Liu Baogen, Zheng Tiansen waited until the heat died down before going to the guesthouse to find Linglong.
"Comrade Linglong, your household registration is not yet established. The army can help you with it. Now you have two options. Either the army will communicate with your local government to help you re-establish a household registration in your village, or we will help you transfer your household registration to our regiment. Which one do you want to choose?"
Many of the family members who followed the troops had their household registrations moved to the location of the troops. If Linglong chose the second option, she would have to follow the same procedure as the family members who followed the troops.
However, Linglong had no family in the army, so he had to help Linglong find a job in the army so that she could settle down.
This was not an easy task, and he had helped Linglong to get it.
After understanding Linglong's specific situation and personal wishes, Political Commissar Hao felt sorry for Linglong and agreed to Zheng Tiansen's proposal. This was considered a special arrangement, and it was considered as compensation made by their army to Linglong, the victim.
"Can I also transfer my household registration to the army?" Linglong looked happy.
