Shan Yubang stared at the people inside with a dark expression: "I had no idea that a local tyrant had emerged in this family compound! He's been flattered by a few people and can't even distinguish right from wrong anymore?"
Liu Jinfeng was also furious. In his unit, the responsibility for such an incident would fall on him: "You've only been in office for two days and you're already so arrogant. If you can't be the women's director, then step down!"
Li Juan finally became frightened. With a mournful face, she said, "I, Chief, what did I do wrong? You can't just listen to Zhang Shanlin's side of the story."
Zhang Shanlin was furious. He was still trying to save face for this person, but this person immediately started to label him.
However, before Zhang Shanlin could speak, Shan Yubang interrupted: "I heard everything clearly outside, why would anyone need to say anything? The reason this position was given to you was to quell the conflicts between military wives. But instead, you went and went straight to cause trouble."
Deliberately stirring up internal conflicts among military spouses. Military spouses are the rear support for the troops; if things are in chaos here, how can the soldiers at the front safely defend their country? You've been a veteran for decades; don't you have this much awareness?
I think you've been flattered so much that you've forgotten who you are.
Li Juan knew she probably wouldn't keep her job, and she said somewhat indignantly, "What I did was all in accordance with the will of the people, where did I go wrong?"
"We didn't tell you to do that!"
As she spoke, Li Yue'e and the other women came over. Lin Ying was surprised that Li Yue'e and Gao Chunhua had brought many military wives from the family compound with them.
Besides the several military wives from the Third Regiment who had a good relationship with Lin Ying, there were also several military wives from the Second and First Regiments.
"Sister-in-law, what's going on here?"
Li Yue'e came over and patted Lin Ying's hand, saying, "Don't worry, your sisters-in-law are here. If anyone's leaving, it'll be those people. You've been doing well in the family compound, you haven't bothered anyone, why should you leave?"
"Yes, don't worry, girl, we'll definitely support you!"
"Putting everything else aside, just because you let my child eat and drink at your house all winter, I can't just sit idly by!"
Lin Ying then realized that Li Yue'e knew she was leaving. The reason the others came was because their children had eaten at Lin Ying's house before.
She never imagined that what she had done on purpose—simply to stop the military wives from targeting her—would now become her supporters.
But how did they know that I wanted to leave?
Just then, Xiaoqiang arrived with a group of children.
Unlike adults who come to reason with people, this group of children, each holding a stick, walked up to Lin Ying and started chattering away:
"Auntie, who bullied you?"
"We'll beat her up!"
"Yes, with us here, we will definitely not let Auntie be bullied away!"
"It must be those new people. They're wicked, and their kids are wicked too. They bully us children and have taken over our stream. Now they want to kick Auntie out."
Seeing the children's fierce determination to fight wolves, Shan Yubang, who was initially angry, laughed instead: "What are you doing? Who told you your aunt left?"
Xiao Shuai, unaware of any fear, said to Shan Yubang, "I told you! I saw Auntie packing her things; she packed up a lot of her belongings. I heard that a bad woman came to the residential compound and wouldn't let Auntie go hunting in the mountains or cut down trees. Auntie was bullied. She's too scared to stay here anymore!"
"Yes, we know!"
Seeing Lin Ying's smiling face as she looked at the group of children, yet without denying their words, Shan Yubang knew it was true. He couldn't help but feel grateful that they had rushed over without hesitation after receiving Zhang Shanlin's call.
If it had been any later, their application to move out of the residential compound might have already been submitted.
They weren't soldiers; if they really wanted to leave, there was nothing the soldiers could do to stop them. Zhao Qinghuai took his team to training, and when they returned, they found their home gone. Nobody knew what that killing machine would do next.
If that were the case, things would really get complicated.
"You silly girl, if you've been wronged, you can go to your superiors in the military. Why are you thinking of leaving? This is a military compound, not a wolf den. Are you afraid of a jackal?"
Lin Ying, who had just been all smiles, became quite indifferent when answering Shan Yubang's question: "My maternal grandfather was a capitalist, and I am the daughter of a capitalist. Everything I own belongs to the corruption of capitalism. I live a petit-bourgeois life."
This isn't a wolf's den; I'm the one everyone sees as a jackal and wants to criticize.
"Nonsense! How could you be a jackal? You're one of our good comrades. Look, I have a newspaper from Beijing here. The leaders personally praised your innovation and called you an outstanding military wife!"
As he spoke, Liu Jinfeng took out the newspaper.
"We originally planned to post this newspaper in the courtyard after the women's director started her work. But we didn't expect this to happen."
Lin Ying's eyes suddenly reddened as she looked at the newspaper. She knew that this newspaper had blown away the dark clouds that had been hanging over her head.
From now on, wherever she goes, she will no longer be suffocated by the label of "capitalism".
With this newspaper, no one will dare to bring up her identity anymore.
She was initially worried that it would be more dangerous for her to go to the factory, but now she's not afraid anymore.
Shan Yubang, who was standing nearby, also said, "Everyone makes mistakes, and the military makes mistakes too. How can you leave just because of a small problem? You have to give the military a chance to correct it, don't you?"
