Chapter 35 Zhou Family Apology
After apologizing to Lu Tingxiao and his wife, Political Commissar Zhou took his daughter Zhou Liqing back home. Not long after they got home, Political Commissar Zhou's wife also rushed back after hearing the news. Just now at school, a military wife went to tell her that Zhou Liqing had gone to Captain Lu's house and had a fight with Captain Lu's wife, and asked her to go back quickly. Upon hearing this, she quickly asked the principal for leave and rushed back quickly.
"Qingqing, what are you thinking? I told you I'd find a partner, but you still went to pester Captain Lu. He's already married, and you actually went to his house. How can your father and I put our faces?" Political Commissar Zhou's wife said angrily.
"I just don't understand, why can't I like Lu Tingxiao? What's wrong with him getting married? It doesn't stop me from liking him. Besides, marriages can be divorced!" Zhou Liqing's shocking words made Political Commissar Zhou and his wife speechless!
"How can you be so arrogant that you can get a divorce even after getting married? What's the matter? You have the final say in Captain Lu's marriage? Then do you also have the final say in your father's position? How about you give my position a promotion? Hmm?" Political Commissar Zhou made Zhou Liqing so angry that she directly retorted.
Zhou Liqing's face turned red with choking after hearing her father's words, but she still stiffened her neck and refused to give in.
"Dad, you only care about your position. You don't care about my happiness at all." Political Commissar Zhou stood up and paced back and forth angrily. "You call this happiness? Destroying other people's families is immoral."
Zhou Liqing's eyes were red. "I don't care. I just like him."
At this time, the phone suddenly rang. After Political Commissar Zhou picked up the phone, his face became even uglier. It turned out that the director of the art troupe called to inform him that because Zhou Liqing's incident today had a very bad impact, the art troupe had suspended Zhou Liqing in accordance with the discipline.
When Zhou Liqing heard the news, she was stunned for a moment, then burst into tears, crying and shouting: "You are all targeting me. I am just pursuing true love. Why are you targeting me?"
Political Commissar Zhou's wife walked up to her, hit her lightly, and continued to persuade her: "You should be sober, this is not true love, it is selfishness. If Captain Lu is not married, and you confess to him and he agrees, this is true love. Look at what you are doing now? You are destroying the military marriage, you are what others call a mistress! Suppose, even if you messed up Captain Lu's divorce with his wife, and he married you, what about your reputation? You can only bear the reputation of a mistress for the rest of your life. Besides, I don't know what Captain Lu's family background is like, but I can be sure of one thing, as long as he dares to divorce his wife and marry you, he will have no future. In the army, this is called a style problem. If it is a minor offense, he will be reinstated, and if it is a major offense, he will be directly expelled from the army. Do you think that if you cause him to leave his favorite unit, he and his family will let you go? Think about it carefully!"
Hearing this, Zhou Liqing stopped crying, a trace of confusion appeared in her eyes. She slowly walked to her room, closed the door, and sat on the bed alone in a daze, falling into deep doubt. Her parents' words kept echoing in her mind, and for the first time she began to doubt the feelings she had always insisted on.
'Did I really do something wrong? Why did she like Lu Tingxiao so much, but Lu Tingxiao couldn't like her? Am I really worse than that woman? Is it really impossible for me to be with Lu Tingxiao? 'Zhou Liqing began to get into a dead end, repeating over and over again: This is not my fault!
The political commissar's wife, who was eavesdropping outside the door, heard Zhou Liqing asking herself questions at the beginning and then Zhou Liqing repeating the same sentence over and over again. She felt something was wrong and quickly opened the door. Fortunately, the door was not locked. After opening the door and entering the room, she saw Zhou Liqing sitting on the bed in a daze, repeating one sentence: This is not my fault!
The political commissar's wife knew that her daughter was stimulated and had gotten into a dead end and couldn't get out, so she quickly called Political Commissar Zhou. The couple sent Zhou Liqing to the hospital. After the doctor's diagnosis, it was found that Zhou Liqing had mild anxiety caused by stimulation. They told her to take good care of herself, not to stimulate her, and to take some medicine to relieve her anxiety. She would be fine in a month or so. After hearing what the doctor said, Political Commissar Zhou and his wife finally felt relieved.
The doctor prescribed a week's worth of tranquilizers and told them to take one tablet at a time, twice a day, and come back for a follow-up visit after finishing the pills. The two thanked the doctor and took Zhou Liqing home.
The next morning, after giving Zhou Liqing the medicine, she was asked to rest at home. Political Commissar Zhou took half a day off to observe whether Zhou Liqing had any unusual behavior after taking the medicine. The political commissar's wife hurried out to the military service center to buy candy, cakes and a pound of meat to apologize to the Lu family.
Standing at the door of the Lu family, he raised his hand and put it down again. Just as he was hesitating, the door of the Lu family opened: "Aunt Zhou, it's so early, do you have anything to do?" Lu Tingxiao asked politely.
"Captain Lu, I..." When Political Commissar Zhou's wife thought about what her daughter had done, she could not raise her head or speak!
"Auntie, come in first!" Lu Tingxiao let Political Commissar Zhou's wife in.
"Tingxiao, who is that?" Jiang Ruoxi asked in the room.
"Ah, it's Aunt Zhou!" Jiang Ruoxi hurried out of the room when she heard Lu Tingxiao say that she was the political commissar's wife.
Jiang Ruoxi saw the political commissar's wife holding something in her hand, so she asked, "Aunt, do you have anything to do so early in the morning?"
Hearing Jiang Ruoxi's question, the political commissar's wife put the things in her hand on the table and said, "Well, it's like this, little wife Lu, our daughter was spoiled by us and I. She has never been away from us for too long. She is too simple. I say simple, but in fact, she is a little stupid. The child doesn't have any bad intentions. Qingqing usually interacts with people from the army. During the performance, she fell in love with Captain Lu among many single young men. The child told me later that I also thought Captain Lu was a good young man picked out of a hundred, and I was planning to find someone to mediate between them. Who knew that Captain Lu filed a marriage report as soon as he came back from vacation? Seeing this, I gave up the idea. During that time, Qingqing happened to go to perform somewhere else, so I thought about waiting for her to come back and tell her. Who knew that before I could say anything, she just came back and heard the military wives in the family compound say that Captain Lu was going to get married. This stirred up a hornet's nest!" As she spoke, the political commissar's wife wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with her hands.
After wiping it, she continued, "At that time, she asked her father to bring back Captain Lu's report. After her father refused, she came to find Captain Lu. After Captain Lu rejected Qingqing on the spot, we all thought that the matter was over. Who knew that this time Captain Lu took a vacation to go home and marry you, and when you came to the family compound, Qingqing came to trouble you after finding out. Captain Lu's wife, it was us who failed to educate Qingqing well. I would like to apologize to you two here. I am really sorry!" After saying that, the political commissar's wife bowed to Lu Tingxiao and Jiang Ruoxi.
This frightened Lu Tingxiao and his wife, and they quickly supported the political commissar's wife, "Auntie, we can't accept such a big gift from you. This is not the fault of Political Commissar Zhou and you. It's Comrade Zhou who is being stubborn. You should talk to her carefully, and things will get better slowly. After a long time, when Comrade Zhou finds a partner, she will understand. Auntie, let's leave it at that. You should go back soon!"
"Okay, Captain Lu, thank you for forgiving Qingqing. These things are my aunt's apology to you. Don't refuse them, or I will think you are still blaming us for not educating Qingqing well!"
"Okay, we'll accept the apology!"
