Chapter 172 Sacrifice



Song Nanting thought of Lu Jianan's expression and had a bad feeling in her heart.

When Lu Jianan went out on a mission, there were more than one or two members. After Lu Jianan came back, the others still hadn't come back. Tian Xiao'e, who lived across the street, seemed to have forgotten the previous disagreements between the two families and came over to ask several times.

But how could Song Nanting know?

Tian Xiao'e asked her to ask Lu Jianan again, but Lu Jianan had returned injured and didn't know much.

The team Zhao Daqiang was in was not led by Lu Jianan, so Lu Jianan didn't know where they went.

Tian Xiao'e was disappointed and worried.

I also comforted myself that Zhao Daqiang would be fine.

When Song Nanting went out, she saw a lot of people gathered in front of the Zhao family's door, and the crying sounds also came from the Zhao family.

For a moment, Song Nanting didn't dare to go over there, for she was afraid of seeing those desperate faces.

Even though she had fought with Tian Xiao'e, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, several times, she did not want to see them suffer because of the death of a family member.

At this time, Aunt Mei also came out. Seeing Song Nanting, she couldn't help but sigh, "Old Lady Lan was gloating over Captain Lu's injury a few days ago, but now her own son can't come back."

Song Nanting frowned slightly when she heard this, "Did Zhao Daqiang get into trouble?"

"Yes." Aunt Mei said, "The army just said that Zhao Daqiang is missing. He was shot before he disappeared. It is estimated that he will not come back."

It was difficult for Song Nanting to judge this matter, and it was not over yet, so she didn't know what to say about it.

At this moment, Auntie Lan suddenly cursed, "You unlucky star, it's all because of you. It's all because of you that my son is unlucky. Get out of here."

There was a moment of astonishment at the scene.

When Song Nanting and Aunt Mei went over, they saw Aunt Lan grabbing Tian Xiao'e's hair and beating her hard, dragging her and trying to get her to leave.

Tian Xiao'e naturally refused to admit it, and the two of them started to wrestle with each other.

Aunt Lan threatened, "I'm divorcing you on behalf of my son. Get out of here."

Tian Xiao'e was already in grief and despair, and she failed to fight back in time, and her face was instantly scratched and left with bloody marks.

Several old ladies and sisters-in-law rushed over to stop the fight, "Stop fighting, stop fighting, talk it out nicely."

"No matter what you say, it's all because of this unlucky star..."

The children begged desperately, and Tian Xiao'e broke down and cried.

Aunt Lan had a vicious look on her face and she grabbed Tian Xiao'e and wanted to throw her out.

He kept saying that Tian Xiao'e was an unlucky star and wanted to divorce her.

Song Nanting frowned and shouted, "Go and call the Family Committee and the Political Department. Someone is practicing feudal superstition."

The scene was silent. Auntie Lan grabbed Tian Xiao'e's hair and looked at Song Nanting with a ferocious look on her face. "What are you doing here? Are you here to make fun of our Zhao family?"

Aunt Lan actually pushed Tian Xiao'e away and rushed towards Song Nanting, shouting, "Is it you? Did you let your man kill my son..."

Before she could finish her words, Song Nanting slapped her in the face, "If you can't speak, shut up."

Aunt Lan's words shocked everyone, and after they realized what was happening, they all condemned her.

It is naturally dangerous for soldiers to go on missions, and no family can say that their son or man will be able to return safely after a mission.

Your son was sacrificed, and everyone certainly sympathizes with him, but can you blame others for it?

Song Nanting looked at Aunt Lan with anger on her face and said word by word, "I regret the sacrifice of Captain Zhao, but you have to understand that Captain Zhao sacrificed his life for the country, not for my wife. What do you think of Captain Zhao's efforts? Working for himself? Also, you keep saying that my wife killed your son. What evidence do you have?"

Her accusations hit Aunt Lan in the face, and Aunt Lan's face turned pale.

Song Nanting slapped him again, "Wake up, don't talk nonsense here, saying that you are unlucky for your husband. If you divorce me, it's not the right time now. Your family would have died long ago."

Can Aunt Lan listen to these words?

After hearing it, he felt scared, so he sat on the ground and started crying.

She cried for her own miserable life and her son’s short life.

Only Tian Xiao'e was dazed, hugging the four children in confusion.

Everyone tried to persuade her, but no one sympathized with Aunt Lan because what she said was really too much.

At this time, people from the Family Committee and the Political Department also hurried over. After investigating, they learned what Aunt Lan had said, and the people from the Political Department became very angry.

Logically speaking, since Aunt Lan's son died, the army should take care of his family, but what did this mother do? She talked nonsense in the family compound, slandering her daughter-in-law and the officers.

This is a big responsibility.

The director of the Parents' Committee said, "Let's just forget about this..."

The director of the political department shook his head, his face serious, "This is not something I can decide. The situation is sensitive now, and she has made it known to everyone in the compound. It will be difficult to explain to the higher-ups."

The director of the political department then had Aunt Lan taken away for investigation. When Aunt Lan saw what was happening, she got scared and started rolling on the ground.

Everyone was speechless. They had never seen an old lady like this.

But the more this happened, the more unhappy the director of the political department became, and he had the man dragged away.

Seeing that her plan failed, Aunt Lan started to act crazy and stupid.

Tian Xiao'e cried and said to Song Nanting, "I'm sorry."

Song Nanting shook her head. "It has nothing to do with you. Just clean up your face."

Tian Xiao'e smiled sadly, "My man is gone, what else can I do?"

People really need spirit and energy. Even though the relationship between the couple is not very good, Zhao Daqiang is still the pillar of the family. If the pillar falls, the hope of the whole family will be gone.

Song Nanting was about to leave with the others when she suddenly thought of a question.

When a soldier dies, the army will give him a pension.

Why was Aunt Lan so anxious to chase Tian Xiao'e away?

Will there be a pension issue?

Even though Song Nanting didn't like Tian Xiao'e's behavior, Tian Xiao'e was very kind to her children and had a loving mother's heart.

She looked at Tian Xiao'e and said, "The army will give pensions to soldiers who died. You have to think more about your children."

Tian Xiao'e looked up in surprise, obviously she had never thought about this question before.

Song Nanting didn't say anything more. Tian Xiao'e had been with the army for a long time, so she must know some things.

Song Nanting and Aunt Mei reached the door before they heard Tian Xiaoe's low voice, "Thank you."

The two of them went out and didn't come back. Many people outside were discussing this matter.

Many people went out this time, and now everyone else has returned, except Zhao Daqiang.

Anyone who talks about this can't help but sigh.

An old lady saw Song Nanting and said, "Actually, Aunt Lan also loves her son."

Song Nanting looked up at her. "Just because she loves her son, can she accuse other officers for no reason? What has my husband done wrong? Not to mention that they were not in the same team at all. Even if they were in the same team, and my husband led the team and something happened, it should be investigated and determined by the army. What qualifications does she have to convict him privately?"

She said in a cold voice, "If you feel sorry for her, you can go to the Political Department and help speak up for her. I didn't ask her to be taken away, so how come it's my fault?"
