"Since Deputy Battalion Commander Li said he had nothing to do with this woman, then let me deal with this woman. You two should solve your own problems behind closed doors."
Mrs. Cao smiled awkwardly and dragged the woman away by force.
Mrs. Cao dragged the woman all the way to her own yard. As soon as she entered the yard, she suddenly let go of her hand.
The woman was struggling hard to break free, and when Mrs. Cao let go of her hand, she staggered and fell heavily to the ground, tears coming out of her eyes due to the pain.
"My dear sister, you are so young, why do you always do things that are offensive to others?
They are a couple living together, why are you interfering?"
Mrs. Cao's voice rose unconsciously due to anger.
Yan Cuifen and Tian Lijuan were afraid that the woman would be difficult to deal with and that Mrs. Cao would suffer, so after hearing Mrs. Cao's voice, they followed her into the yard and stood aside, staring at the woman on the ground.
The woman struggled to stand up, looking pitiful.
...
...
"Sister-in-law, you really misunderstood. I really just want to show concern, and I have no other intentions."
As she spoke, she gently brushed off the dust stuck to the hem of her skirt, a movement that was deliberately elegant.
“Who are you fooling?
With those tricks of yours, do you think your sisters-in-law can't see through them?
I advise you to learn something good and not to dream of things that do not belong to you. "
Yan Cuifen put her hands on her hips, took a step forward and stared at her.
"I didn't do anything, why are you accusing me so wrongly? Is it wrong for me to just come and visit?"
Tian Lijuan opened her eyes wide and snorted coldly.
"Okay, stop pretending here!
You know exactly what you are thinking.
If you dare to provoke Deputy Battalion Commander Li's family again, you will have no good life the next time you step into this military compound!"
Song Shishi was listening in the corner of her yard with a slight smile on her lips.
With Mrs. Cao and the other three in the military compound, it would be difficult to cause trouble.
The woman just now was definitely no match for Mrs. Cao and the other three. There was nothing exciting to watch next, so Song Shishi turned around and went into the house to prepare her lunch.
The woman in Cao's wife's yard was so angry that her lips were trembling.
There was a glimmer of resentment in her eyes, but under the intimidating gaze of her three sisters-in-law, she didn't dare to say another word and left in disgrace.
On the other side, after Mrs. Cao took the woman away, Li Weiguo pulled Liu Cuiping into the house.
Liu Cuiping entered the room and shook off Li Weiguo's hand.
She sat down on the edge of the bed, covered her face with her hands, and started to sob.
"Li Weiguo, I have been running this family for so many years, getting up early and going to bed late, sewing and mending things, and this is how you treat me?
Are you like your mother, blaming me for not being able to give birth to a child for you after all these years?
So you're out there looking for another woman, right?"
Liu Cuiping cried so hard that her shoulders were shaking and her face was covered with tears and snot. Her former bravery had now turned into a feeling of grievance.
Li Weiguo hurriedly sat down next to her, held her hands with both hands, and leaned forward slightly.
"Wife, what are you talking about?
We have been married for so many years, when have I ever said a word to you about children?
Once I was sick and you stayed by my side for several nights without closing your eyes.
Which of the big and small things at home don’t you worry about?
How could I do such a heartless thing and let you down?"
As he spoke, he gently raised his hand, wanting to wipe away the tears from Liu Cuiping's face.
Liu Cuiping cried and beat his chest.
"Who is that woman? Why did she come to you?"
That woman is now like a thorn in Liu Cuiping's heart.
If she doesn't sort this out today, she won't be able to sleep.
"She is the sister of one of my comrades. Last time my comrade went on a mission, he asked me to deliver something to his sister. I only met that woman once. I don't understand why she came to see me today."
After Li Weiguo finished speaking, he was afraid that Liu Cuiping would not be able to do it, so he added: "Really, I only saw her once."
Liu Cuiping raised her eyes and looked at him, then nodded, indicating that she believed what Li Weiguo said.
But one thing is one thing. The woman’s problem has been solved, but the quarrel between the two last night has not yet been put behind them.
“Actually, I know you did that for me.
But, wife, I know what’s going on in the army, and I can handle it myself.
Please stop arguing with Captain Meng's wife. Captain Meng has nothing to do with my failure to get promoted."
"What do you mean you solve it yourself? If you could solve it, would you still be the deputy battalion commander? Would I have to offend someone?"
Liu Cuiping was not convinced.
Who are you doing this for?
Now, she is in a difficult situation.
Li Weiguo suppressed the anger in his heart and pursed his lips.
He paused for a while before speaking again:
"You really need to change your temper.
No matter what the reason is, Captain Meng is now my leader.
Have you ever thought about how your brothers in the army will look at me when you bully his wife like this without any regard for the consequences?
How can I get along with everyone in the army and in the military family compound in the future?"
Li Weiguo's words awakened Liu Cuiping.
She felt that what Li Weiguo said made sense.
She took out her resentment for Li Weiguo's failure to get promoted on Captain Meng's wife, but her superiors would not make an exception and allow Li Weiguo to be promoted because of this.
And it will probably affect him.
If that was the case, then she was wrong to do so.
But even though she understood this truth, asking her to admit that she was wrong was more painful than killing her.
So Liu Cuiping gritted her teeth and muttered:
"I know, I know, you will scold me.
At worst, I can just avoid Captain Meng’s wife when I see her next time.”
The farce between Li Weiguo and Liu Cuiping has come to an end.
The Military Family Courtyard once again regained its former harmony.
…
When Meng Xunzhou came back from the army last night, Song Shishi had already fallen asleep.
Early the next morning, when the sky was just beginning to turn pale, Song Shishi opened her eyes and looked at Meng Xunzhou who was so close to her. She stood up slightly in a good mood and gave him a kiss on the face.
Meng Xunzhou moved his fingers and hugged Song Shishi tighter.
Without even opening his eyes, he said in a low voice, "Why are you awake so early? Go to sleep a little longer."
"You have to accompany me to my parents' home today. My mother will probably get up early to prepare food. Don't let her wait too long. Get up quickly, okay?"
Song Shishi rubbed the tip of her nose against the tip of Meng Xunzhou's nose, with a hint of coaxing a child in her tone.
Meng Xunzhou slowly opened his eyes, and there seemed to be something in his eyes that could devour Song Shishi.
Song Shishi looked away, supported herself on Meng Xunzhou's chest, and tried to get up.
But as soon as she moved, Meng Xunzhou turned over and pressed Song Shishi under him.
