Unexpectedly, Shi Zhentang then said, "Actually, whoever wins the military competition should receive the medal. I won't join in the fun. He Ziqiang is quite capable, and there's no need to split the medal into two. It would only make us appear to be at odds with each other."
The entire team is a big family. Sometimes taking a step back can make you appear magnanimous.
Furthermore, military confrontation is what he least wants to see.
Shi Zhentang's decision seemed to be within Wen Jiangong's expectations. He smiled with satisfaction and nodded slightly: "Zhentang, you are very conscious and open-minded. We were not wrong about you."
With this sentence in mind, Tian Yuzhu had nothing to say.
In her opinion, the medal of military honor should belong to Shi Zhentang, and He Ziqiang just took advantage of it later.
Wang Xiudi, who was sitting next to her, patted the back of her hand to comfort her.
Wen Jiangong saw this and said, "Xiaotian, I understand that you feel sorry for Zhentang, but..."
"Please rest assured, my thoughts and consciousness are consistent with Zhentang's. I will support whatever decision he makes."
Tian Yuzhu thought that since the man had made the decision.
She couldn't seem petty, so it would be better for her to express her opinion directly.
Her retort made Wen Jiangong laugh again, "Okay, okay, a husband and wife working together can achieve great things."
Wang Xiudi added, "Yuzhu, I need to learn from you on this point."
Shi Zhentang cast a grateful look at his daughter-in-law: "..."
As a result, as soon as Wen Jiangong and his wife left, his wife gave him the cold shoulder.
Shi Zhentang: “…”
What's going on?
Weren't you fine just now?
He quickly walked around to his wife to take a look. No matter which way she turned her face, he would get closer to see: "What's wrong? Are you really angry? Didn't you say that my ideological awareness is as high as yours? Do you regret it?"
Tian Yuzhu blinked her clear spring-like eyes, and her eye sockets suddenly turned red and mist rose: "You were injured so badly, but you didn't get any military merit. This is not fair."
She has never been a narrow-minded person, but this matter is a bit too out of place.
On the other hand, she felt sorry for the suffering the man had to endure.
Shi Zhentang smiled in relief, pinching her small chin with his sharp fingertips. "Some things are more important than military medals. You'll slowly understand them in the future. Besides, Lao He lost his ranking last year due to poor command, but this time he won first place in the final race. This is God's will, and it means he deserves this reward. Let's not overthink it."
"You have a really big heart." Tian Yuzhu sighed.
She had long seen that Shi Zhentang was by no means just a battalion commander in terms of both his personal ability and command capability.
He will achieve even greater things in the future, but to make progress, he must first have solid military achievements as a foundation.
In short, this time, he gave up on his own initiative!
Seeing his wife's worried look, Shi Zhentang couldn't help but lean over and kiss her red lips: "Don't think about it, okay? I don't want you to be unhappy."
This scene happened to be seen by Qin Xu who had just walked to the door of the ward.
A beam of sunlight came in from the window, shining on the two people kissing.
The men were extremely handsome, and the women were extremely beautiful. When their lips touched, everything was as perfect as an oil painting.
Qin Xu was stunned and quickly stepped back...
He stood by the door frame with his back against the wall, his hands unconsciously clenched into fists. He closed his eyes and opened his mouth, slowly releasing the pent-up anger in his chest...
…
"Captain Shi, Comrade Yuzhu."
When he appeared at the door of the ward again, Qin Xu had adjusted his mood.
He adjusted his glasses as usual and smiled.
Qin Xu has lost a lot of weight after not seeing him for a few days, and he looks even thinner.
Tian Yuzhu quickly offered him a seat: "Mayor Qin is here, please sit down."
"No, no." Qin Xu shook his head, his face full of guilt. "Actually, I came here today specifically to thank Captain Shi. If you hadn't brought the troops that night, we might have..."
At this point, he was even more embarrassed and at a loss: "But I shot you at that time. I'm so sorry. I have been blaming myself and reflecting on myself these past few days. I shouldn't have picked up that gun."
"Okay, I know you didn't mean it." Shi Zhentang said calmly.
He could understand why Qin Xu, a novice, accidentally fired a gun.
However, this incident scared his wife a lot. Thinking about her helpless crying that night, he felt bad.
Qin Xu saw that Shi Zhentang was very cold and felt that he was still blaming him.
Of course, he could understand that if he was shot and almost lost his life, he would not be able to forgive the other party.
I didn't know what to say for a moment, so I could only awkwardly hand the can of fruit in my hand to Tian Yuzhu: "Ahem, Comrade Yuzhu, I wonder what Captain Shi likes to eat. I'll bring him some next time."
"Need not."
“…” Tian Yuzhu was stuck.
Before she could even open her mouth to speak, the man spoke coldly before she could.
At this moment, she also thought that Shi Zhentang was angry about her being shot, and she could understand that. So, based on the idea of husband and wife being of the same mind, she said seriously, "Don't bother Mayor Qin. I will personally make whatever Zhentang likes to eat."
"I'm no longer the mayor."
Qin Xu smiled sheepishly. "This happened because of my misjudgment. I feel better about being demoted. Now I'm just an ordinary employee in the Shuochi Town Government. From now on, you can just call me Qin Xu."
"That……"
Tian Yuzhu didn't know what to say.
