"This military region skills competition is a great opportunity for promotion."
“My son Ye Chen is older than Zhiyuan, and he’s only a deputy battalion commander right now.”
"Xiaoyu, we are a family. Only by taking care of and supporting each other can our family become stronger."
Chen Ting thought to herself that since she had explained it to this extent, Sang Feiyu should be able to understand it, right?
Sang Feiyu understood what she was hearing, but she just smiled and remained silent, not intending to respond.
Seeing this, Chen Ting could only continue, "If Zhiyuan is promoted to deputy regimental commander, then the position of battalion commander will be vacant?"
"There were originally three deputy battalion commanders, but one of them got himself arrested, leaving two. Could you talk to Zhiyuan for me and ask him to reserve the position for my son, Ye Chen?"
Sang Feiyu firmly refused, "No way."
"Is a promotion something you can decide with just a few words?"
"Others train from dawn till dusk for the military region's competition. If your Ye Chen wants to get promoted, instead of saying so much, you should go home and push him hard, make him train for two more hours every day, and he might have a better chance."
Chen Ting's face turned pale. "Xiao Yu, we are family. If none of you are willing to help us, who can we rely on in the future?"
"Mountains may crumble, rivers may flow away, but relying on oneself is the most reliable thing."
"Sister-in-law, please leave if there's nothing else."
"I can't accept a promotion opportunity in exchange for two steamed buns."
Sang Feiyu returned the two steamed buns as well!
She doesn't like steamed buns to begin with, and yet someone tried to bribe her with steamed buns—it's an insult!
After leaving the Ning family, Chen Ting felt a sense of crisis.
Don't be fooled by the fact that Ning Zhiyuan only has two deputy battalion commanders under him; there are more than a dozen deputy battalion commanders in other battalions waiting to be promoted in this military region's grand competition!
All things considered, her man has relatively few opportunities for promotion.
Firstly, her husband has always been quite lucky, always managing to get promoted just in time.
Secondly, her man had many missions with Ning Zhiyuan, which is how he earned some military merits; otherwise, he would have accomplished nothing to this day.
Thirdly, because of her mother-in-law, Shen Hongmei, the Ning family now has opinions about them, and she is worried that the Ning family will stop supporting them in the future because of this!
Thinking about this, Chen Ting felt an intense hatred for her mother-in-law!
No, she has to give her mother-in-law a good talking-to, and at least take the initiative to apologize to Commander Ning and the others to try and salvage a chance.
Chen Ting acted immediately and called her mother-in-law.
Upon hearing her daughter-in-law ask her to apologize to Ning Zhennan and Gu Nanzhi, Shen Hongmei on the other end of the phone instantly flew into a rage. "Why should I apologize to them again?"
"I've already apologized, what more do they want?"
Her in-laws are making her apologize, and now her daughter-in-law is making her apologize too. Is the whole family ganging up on her and bullying her?
"Mom, I went to find Ning Zhiyuan's wife, but she wouldn't even talk to me."
"If Xiao Chen doesn't get promoted in this military region's skills competition, who knows when he'll be able to get promoted again."
"Can't you think about your son's feelings?"
Shen Hongmei never expected that Ning Zhiyuan's daughter-in-law would look down on people like that!
She said angrily, "You're still her sister-in-law, how could she treat you like that?"
"If Ning Zhiyuan had married Yunyun instead, there wouldn't have been so many problems."
"Yunyun must be thinking about our family in everything she does."
