Chapter 133: Captain Bai beats a girl

"There has to be a limit to lying, hehe, Qiao Xiangye, where did you find this person...hiccup...this person is not good..."

Captain Bai asked Qiao Xiangye to fire the troublemaker away.

Seeing the fire burning on him, Qiao Xiangye waved his hands and said, "I don't have the ability to do that."

"Oh my, you are nothing as a leader. You can't even get rid of someone."

Qiao Xiangye saw Zhou Yongzhuo smiling at Captain Bai with his own eyes and fell silent instantly. He gave him a sympathetic look. Whenever Zhou Yongzhuo smiled, it was bound to be bad news.

If they were in Beijing, people who were familiar with Zhou Yongzhuo would have run away long ago if they saw him smiling like this. Captain Bai was really brave.

"This is my brother-in-law, Zhou Yongzhuo." Qiao Xiangye said suddenly.

Captain Bai was stunned. He reacted instantly and looked at Zhou Yongzhuo who was smiling brightly at him. He almost spit out the beer in his throat.

"Zhou... Zhou..."

Captain Bai didn't dare to say the name twice. He spoke to Qiao Xiangye with a trembling voice, half crying and half laughing, "Old Qiao, don't joke with me. Zhou... Ahem, he hasn't been out for many years."

Ever since the young lady from the Qiao family disappeared, Captain Bai has never seen him in any military or political meetings again.

"This is a joke, right, Old Zhou?" Qiao Xiangye smiled and walked forward, patted Zhou Yongzhuo on the shoulder, laughing.

The two of them were happy, but Captain Bai was trembling with fear. His father-in-law once said that the person who should not be provoked in Beijing was Zhou Yongzhuo, and those who went against him would end up in jail.

Captain Bai was stunned and took him a long time to recover. Even though the light in the room was brighter, it couldn't be brighter than the color of his face. He was staggering and could hardly stand.

"Your surname is Bai, right? I remember it." Zhou Yongzhuo said.

Captain Bai reacted immediately, his back shuddered, and he walked over with his wine glass in hand, "I didn't know it was you. I'm sorry, I can't control my mouth when I'm drunk."

As he said this, he slapped his face twice without holding back his strength, and it soon turned red. Qiao Xiangye had to admit that Captain Bai was a man who could bend and stretch himself. Look at his attitude of admitting his mistakes, it was simply first-rate.

Everyone was in the army, and Captain Bai thought the matter was over. After all, they were all from Beijing, and everything would be fine after an apology.

Zhou Yongzhuo looked coldly at the glass of wine handed over by Captain Bai, raised the corner of his lips in disdain, and stood up and left the next second. Qiao Xiangye and Jiang Xingyan followed him, and He Shulan and Chu Sangning also stood up.

“Hey, hey—”

"I will report the truth, Captain Bai, please take care of yourself." After Zhou Yongzhuo said this, he left with his daughter.

The meal was halfway through when their leader left. Those with good eyes saw Qiao Xiangye walking away with a gloomy face and knew what to do.

One by one they were either pretending to be drunk or rubbing their foreheads. None of the women following their men were fools. After seeing the leader He Shulan leave, they saw their men again.

She hurriedly went forward to support her man and said goodbye to Captain Bai, "Captain, my man is drunk. I'll take him home first."

"It's the same with my family. It's easy to get crazy when you're drunk. Don't destroy Captain Bai's things. We're leaving first."

The woman who had mentioned that Chu Sangning was an educated youth who went to the countryside at the beginning also stood up and smiled at Bai Xiangsu, "I am from the countryside too. We work hard and face the loess. It turns out that people like you are what support the countryside."

"If I had known this, I wouldn't have come to dinner today."

The woman also helped her pretending drunk man back home. In an instant, most people left the huge house, leaving only Captain Bai and Bai Xiangsu.

After being wronged by Chu Sangning and mocked by the woman just now, Bai Xiangsu completely collapsed and screamed: "Dad——"

“Pah—”

Captain Bai slapped his young lady in the face and said coldly, "Cry, you still have the nerve to cry, it's all your fault."

After what happened just now, Captain Bai was completely sober. Not only was he sober, he was also able to recount the whole story. Qiao Xiangye's niece was Chu Sangning.

Zhou Yongzhuo and the young lady of the Qiao family are husband and wife. So, Chu Sangning is Zhou Yongzhuo's biological daughter, so that's why Zhou Yongzhuo came here.

Then... then what did he do before? His daughter went to find trouble with Chu Sangning, and he spoke nonsense in front of Zhou Yongzhuo... Captain Bai wished he could faint at this moment.

Bai Xiangsu didn't know her father was going crazy yet. She got slapped in the face and suddenly started crying with a pout. "Wuwuwu, you hit me, you actually dared to hit me, I'm going to tell grandpa."

After saying that, she ran back into the house crying, slamming the door.

Captain Bai was feeling extremely nervous and had no time to cheer his daughter up. When he heard Bai Xiangsu talking about her grandfather, his eyes suddenly lit up. Yes, he had his father-in-law behind him.

Zhou Yongzhuo was just one of the top military and political leaders, but he still had to respectfully call his father-in-law "uncle".

Captain Bai thought of this and had no time to calm down. He planned to go to the army and tell his father-in-law in advance.

When the Bai family's banquet was mentioned the next day, everyone who had been there kept silent. Several women had mixed feelings on their faces, and their perfunctory looks made everyone even more curious.

Bai Xiangsu cried in the house until midnight. Her father had never touched her before, but when he came here, he not only scolded her but also beat her.

Bai Xiangsu kept all these grievances in mind and felt that everything was because of Chu Sangning. If it weren't for her, nothing would have happened.

A man like Jiang Xingyan should be with me. Only after marrying her will my military career gradually rise. Chu Sangning is just an uncle. There is nothing to be proud of.

Bai Xiangsu was so angry that she grabbed the quilt and scolded Chu Sangning at home, while Chu Sangning, who had woken up early, went to check the spinach in his vegetable garden as usual.

In just one week, the seeds actually sprouted. Chu Sangning happily ran upstairs to tell He Shulan. He Shulan was also surprised. She had tried it herself but failed. She didn't expect that her niece would actually succeed.

She couldn't help but sigh, "Sang Ning, if you really do it, you will be a great hero of the army."

The troops lacked vegetables, the soldiers' nutrition was not up to par, and the training was meaningless. If there were vegetables to eat, they would not have to eat cabbage and potatoes in the winter.

Although vegetables can be grown on other lands in the spring, the cost of transportation is too high and it would require too much manpower, so Qiao Xiangye suppressed this idea.

This news was so exciting that He Shulan paused, then ran out with a smile on her face, "Sang Ning, I'll go tell your uncle."
