"Cheating?" Cheng Jingmo frowned. "What do you mean?"
Yu Xiangnian thought for a moment and said, "It means stealing someone."
"Who stole the person?" Cheng Jingmo asked.
She would be the first to complain!
He had heard the rumors about Yu Xiangnian and Ding Yunfei a long time ago, but he didn't take them seriously. He didn't expect them to be true!
Yu Xiangnian understood the meaning behind Cheng Jingmo's words.
Yes! She had invited Ding Yunfei to her home every day for the past three days, but she had a purpose!
She said, "Cheng Jingmo, don't worry, I'm not cheating on you, and I'm not pregnant! While our marriage lasts, I won't do anything to let my family down. But I also want to make it clear, no matter what your relationship with Dr. Wu was before, since you're married, you have to keep your distance and maintain propriety! Of course, if you want a divorce, I agree!"
Her words were so powerful that Cheng Jingmo seemed stunned. After a long while, he spoke, "I promised your family to take good care of you."
Upon hearing this, Yu Xiangnian became even more unhappy. She didn't need this kind of morally blackmailed care!
"I don't need anyone to take care of me, I can be independent..."
Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted. Xiao Jie hurried in and said, "Uncle, you're back! Daya's father beat her mother again!"
Xiaojie is seven years old this year. His full name is Fang Junjie. He was adopted by Cheng Jingmo a year ago.
Xiaojie's mother died of complications during childbirth, and his father died while on a mission a year ago, so Cheng Jingmo adopted him.
The original owner had been mean to Xiao Jie before. On the day she first crossed over, Xiao Jie was very cold and rejecting towards her.
During these three days, Yu Xiangnian had been showing kindness to him.
But this child was very cunning. He ate a lot of her food and listened to a lot of her stories, but he still ignored her.
Cheng Jingmo frowned, stood up and followed Xiaojie out the door, and Yu Xiangnian also followed him out.
The door of a house not far away was crowded with women and children watching the fun, and the cries of women and children could be heard from inside the house.
Cheng Jingmo walked over quickly, pushed through the crowd and squeezed into the house. Yu Xiangnian followed him into the house.
What caught my eye were the tables, chairs and benches lying all over the floor. A woman in a blue coarse cloth was running away with her head in her hands. Behind her was a man in a military uniform, holding a belt in his hand and cursing in a foul language.
There were also two little girls with messy hair chasing after him, their faces wet with tears, "Dad, please don't hit my mom."
Yu Xiangnian got angry when she saw this scene. She hated domestic violence and cheating men the most!
Cheng Jingmo took two steps forward to stop Captain Zhang, grabbed his hand, and shouted sternly, "Captain Zhang, stop!"
Captain Zhang had been drinking, his face flushed red. He struggled twice but couldn't get free. "Get out of my way! I'm going to beat this bitch to death today."
"Just say what you want to say nicely and don't use violence!" Cheng Jingmo said.
Captain Zhang cursed, "I just gave her five yuan a few days ago, and today she's asking me for more. I work hard outside every day, and all she does at home is waste money!"
Li Guihua, Captain Zhang's wife, cried and said, "I used that five yuan to buy 20 kilograms of rice and two kilograms of lard. How can I have anything left? The children's shoes are worn out, and I asked you for five yuan to buy them a new pair. What's wrong?"
Yu Xiangnian became even more furious when he heard Li Guihua's crying.
What kind of bastard is this?! He doesn't even want to spend money on his own child!
"You dare to talk back?!" Captain Zhang suddenly broke free from Cheng Jingmo's grip and rushed towards Li Guihua.
Li Guihua screamed in fear and ran around the house.
One was running and the other was chasing, and Cheng Jingmo was also chasing behind.
Suddenly, with a loud bang, half of a large coarse porcelain bowl fell to the ground and broke into pieces.
The scene suddenly fell silent.
Captain Zhang covered his forehead with his hands, blood flowing out from between his fingers. He looked at Yu Xiangnian in disbelief.
Yu Xiangnian held the other half of the bowl in her hand. She stood straight, her fair face full of anger, and looked at Captain Zhang fiercely.
"Don't you like to beat people? Then you can also experience the feeling of being beaten!"
The women and children who were watching the excitement were all shocked, and even Cheng Jingmo was stunned for a moment.
What happened to Yu Xiangnian today?
She knew that Captain Zhang beat his wife before, but she never intervened and even laughed at Li Guihua for being a coward at home!
"You dare to hit me?!" After a while, Captain Zhang finally reacted and raised his hand to hit Yu Xiangnian fiercely.
Cheng Jingmo reacted quickly and controlled Captain Zhang in one go.
Yu Xiangnian threw the half-eaten bowl in his hand to the ground, his eyes burning with anger. "Cheng Jingmo, let him go. I'll see if he dares to do anything to me! If he dares to touch me today, I'll make him pack up and leave!"
These words shocked Captain Zhang. He really didn't dare to offend Yu Xiangnian.
Yu Xiangnian's father is the commander-in-chief of the army. If he hits her, he can forget about staying in the army.
Captain Zhang's hand stopped in mid-air. Yu Xiangnian cursed at him, "As a grown man, you should go to the battlefield and kill the enemy. What's the point of beating a woman at home? You can't even afford to buy your child a pair of shoes. How can you be worthy of being a father?"
"Your wife came all the way from your hometown to follow you here. What kind of life have you given her? She works tirelessly every day taking care of the children, washing clothes, cooking, farming, and cleaning. If she weren't doing the housework, how could you expect to eat hot meals and wear clean clothes?"
"Just because you can earn a little money, you think you're great! I'm telling you, women can earn money too. Otherwise, you stay home doing housework while your wife goes out to earn money to support the family, and she'll beat you up if she gets upset!"
These words touched the hearts of the military families present.
Although the men in the family don't beat them, they think they are great just because they can earn some money, and when they come home they order them around like masters.
They left their families and came here with the army, not for the men to get promoted or make money, but just for them to be nicer.
The military families looked at Yu Xiangnian with a mixture of disgust and fear, but also a bit of approval.
Yu Xiangnian ignored everyone's gazes and continued, "I'm telling you, I'm going to tell the political commissar tomorrow that you're committing domestic violence! If you dare to do it again, I'll report you to the Women's Committee and have you jailed!"
Yu Xiangnian spoke so forcefully that even the family members present were moved. "Yes, next time you hit Sister Guihua again, we will all be witnesses and put you in jail!"
Cheng Jingmo was shocked. Was this still the arrogant and conceited Yu Xiangnian he knew?
"Everyone, take your children back." He said calmly.
After everyone dispersed, Cheng Jingmo said to Captain Zhang again, "Captain Zhang, it is indeed wrong for you to beat your wife. I will report this matter to the political commissar tomorrow."
In the past, whenever Captain Zhang beat his wife, his comrades in the same hospital would come out to stop him, but after it happened so many times, no one bothered to care, and he was the only one who came out to stop it every time.
He used to think that this was someone else's family affair and he didn't want to bring other people's family affairs to the army. Now he thinks that he should teach Captain Zhang a lesson, otherwise he will never be able to change his habit of beating his wife.
