Sister-in-law Wang said, "Xiaoxiao, you have to talk to your Battalion Commander Qin about this."
They are just housewives who haven't even figured out their own family affairs, so offering advice is a huge risk for them.
There's nothing we can do; it's because the men in those positions have lower status.
Once someone gets infected, the whole family has to go back to the village to farm.
"I understand your good intentions, sisters-in-law. Don't worry, even if something happens, I will never implicate you."
Lin Xiaoxiao was very grateful that they took the initiative to remind her.
She knew all along that Zhao Mei wouldn't let it go.
But I never expected that she would form gangs and engage in bullying; isn't this a typical early form of organized crime?
Goodness.
It really stirred up her sense of justice.
Lin Xiaoxiao has no other hobbies, except for stirring up trouble.
Zhao Mei...
What is Zhao Mei doing? Zhao Mei is crying.
"Mom, you have to help me teach that little bitch a lesson, waaaaah!"
"Apologizing in public is so embarrassing. Even my dad won't help me. I hate him so much."
“Yu Shen is also on her side and is even looking down on me. Mom, didn’t you say you would let Yu Shen marry me? Now he’s going to marry someone else. You’re not keeping your word. I hate you too.”
He Meng, who had just returned from her parents' home, was almost overwhelmed by Zhao Mei's tears as soon as she entered the door.
Extracting the key information from her words, "You said Yu Shen's boyfriend came to the military base?"
Zhao Mei recounted the events of the day to her.
They embellished their own behavior and words, exaggerating how arrogant and annoying Lin Xiaoxiao was.
"Fine, what a good son of mine." He Meng gritted her teeth. "They arranged her marriage in Beijing without telling me a thing."
He inherited his father's selfish genes; he's an ungrateful wretch.
And that Lin Xiaoxiao, what kind of status does she have to bully her daughter?
Although Zhao Mei was not her biological daughter, she raised her with great care and affection, treating her no differently than her own daughter.
A woman who doesn't even know if she can still get married is someone who dares to jump on her head.
They're tired of living.
“Your brother is coming back today. I saw your dad bought groceries. Let’s invite them over for dinner tonight.” He Meng had a plan in mind.
Seeing Zhao Mei's reluctance, he promised her, "Don't worry, Mom will help you get revenge."
Zhao Mei then smiled through her tears, "Thank you, Mom."
He was secretly very pleased with himself.
No matter how eloquent Lin Xiaoxiao is, can she really go against her mother-in-law?
She knew her mother's methods.
Tonight she'll get to see Lin Xiaoxiao in such a sorry state.
He laughed triumphantly inside, but outwardly he pretended to be obedient, nestling in He Meng's arms.
He Meng held her close, but her mind was on the Qin family in Beijing.
Qin Yushen came out of the political commissar's office and walked to the training ground.
"Old Qin, come and see these ancestors' data. It's making my heart ache with anger." Battalion Commander Xu Dali of the Second Battalion had a droopy face, but seeing him instantly revived him.
He put down the loudspeaker and handed a booklet to Qin Yushen.
Qin Yu glanced through the document briefly and finally understood why Xu Dali was so anxious.
Each of them has a complex background.
Families with some means would not send their younger members to the countryside; they would either arrange jobs for them or send them to the army.
This year's new recruits are indeed full of hidden talents.
The Lu family and the Yang family in Beijing...
Seeing familiar names, Qin Yushen only glanced at them, but the last name in the ranking list made his gaze stop.
Han Ling?
He snapped the booklet shut, tossed it to Xu Dali, and said calmly, "Once you're in the army, you have to follow the rules. Train them to the bone."
Xu Dali wailed, "They're all rich young masters, how could I dare?"
Qin Yu glanced at the lazy recruits in the distance, "Next time you fail the test, all of you will be sent to the logistics department to feed the pigs."
"Get rid of all that affectation before you come back to training."
Xu Dali clung to Qin Yushen's shoulder as if grasping at a lifeline, but Qin Yushen broke free. Xu Dali didn't seem to mind and instead chuckled and tried to negotiate, "Old Qin, now that this mission is over, you'll have nothing to do for a while, right?"
"What kind of trick are you up to?" Qin Yushen moved away from him.
Judging from the lewd smile on Xu Dali's face, it was no good news.
He made a move as if to turn and leave.
Xu Dali quickly said, "I got news from my hometown that my mother isn't feeling well. I'd like to ask for leave to go back and see her. Could you help me with the responsibilities at the recruit camp? I'll remember you for the rest of my life, brother."
When it came to serious matters, Xu Dali's nonchalant attitude disappeared, and the aura emanating from him became somewhat subdued.
He was worried about his mother, who absolutely refused to come and join him in the army.
They were comrades-in-arms, and Qin Yushen knew more or less about his family affairs.
Without hesitation, he agreed, "Okay."
Xu Dali was a little embarrassed. "Your girlfriend came to the army and finally got a few days off. Look at how I handled this."
Not very authentic.
Qin Yushen said, "There are priorities in everything. Why are you being so dramatic? Do you want to go feed pigs for half a year?"
Xu Dali: "......"
Xu Dali had barely run off when Qin Yushen summoned the company commanders from each of the training units.
"Stop training them. The three squads in the first company will go to be cooks for the third regiment in field training. The second company will feed the pigs, and the third company will go to help the logistics team to chop firewood on the mountain."
"You're not allowed to bring it back until you've worked for a full week."
The holidays are here, aren't they?
I promised to get my marriage certificate with Lin Xiaoxiao, so I need to make time for it.
If all goes well, the housing permit for the family compound should be approved tomorrow. Cleaning, tidying up, and shopping will not be easy tasks.
He couldn't leave everything to Lin Xiaoxiao.
This is a good opportunity to let these young masters who have gone to the countryside and been sent to the army temper their tempers.
The new recruits, upon being notified to arrive, let out cries of agony that echoed across the training ground, sounding like pigs being slaughtered.
The culprit then left with a clear conscience.
On the other side, Zhao Yu searched the officers' dormitory for Qin Yushen but couldn't find him.
They had no choice but to ask the deputy battalion commander, "Deputy battalion commander, where is the battalion commander?"
The deputy battalion commander stopped. "Company Commander Zhao, if there's anything you need to tell me, I'll pass it on to the battalion commander."
Only a few top-ranking officers in the military region knew about the relationship between Qin Yushen and Commander Zhao.
But everyone knows that Zhao Yu is Commander Zhao's youngest son.
People were jokingly saying that Zhao Yu became a company commander after only four years in the army, which was probably a bit of an exaggeration.
Those officers who served as company commanders, battalion commanders, regimental commanders, or even higher-ranking officers all earned their military merits by braving gunfire and danger.
Take the battalion commander of the 3rd Battalion of the 2nd Regiment, for example. He is 37 years old this year. He joined the army at the age of 15, became a company commander at the age of 25, and a battalion commander at the age of 32. During this period, he suffered 12 gunshot wounds, 24 knife wounds, and two blast wounds. He looks like a 50-year-old when he is not yet 40.
According to relevant regulations, the service age for battalion-level officers is usually forty years old.
If he is not promoted within three years, he will eventually have to retire from the military.
Among these officers, Zhao Yu was clearly out of place.
