Xiaoqiang went home at noon and refused to eat. He locked himself in the room and insisted on touching the dog and raising it.
When Lu Guodong returned home and didn't see his son coming out for dinner, he asked his wife, Hu Guifen, "Where's Xiaoqiang?"
Hu Guifen placed Xiaoqiang's enamel bowl heavily on the table with a 'bang' sound.
Lu Guodong frowned, "Can't you be gentler? It will cost money to break the table."
Hu Guifen said angrily, "It's not easy. I'm full of anger."
"What's wrong? You always make a fuss. Can't you just solve the problem calmly?"
"That bastard is pissing me off. Li Jiyue adopted a retired military dog, and we were all against him getting one. But this little bastard wanted to pet her dog. He didn't want to go against me. He just locked himself in his room and refused to open the door no matter how much we knocked. He also kept yelling that he wanted a dog or he wouldn't eat.
They even had someone call the minister to tell you about it. Do you know what happened? He found out the dog was a military dog and left it alone.
If the minister doesn't care, we'll find the political commissar. If the political commissar still doesn't care, I'll find the chief. I don't believe everyone is afraid of Captain Fu's family background. I absolutely cannot let her keep a dog in the family compound."
"What's the name of that military dog?"
"It's called Erha, and they say it's a retired military dog. It's so majestic, it immediately attracted our Xiaoqiang. He even insisted on petting the dog. I was afraid the dog would bite him, so for his own good I wouldn't let him. He even got mad at me. I pick him up from school every day and I'm always around him. He got mad at me just because of a dead dog. It pissed me off."
Lu Guodong said, "Military dogs undergo special training and will not bite people randomly. Erha is recognized in the army as a very human-friendly military dog. It is very smart and safer than rural dogs. Moreover, adopting a retired military dog with meritorious service can add points when selecting outstanding military wives."
Hu Guifen's eyes widened when she heard the last sentence. "How can this get extra points? It's over. That woman must be going for the Outstanding Military Wife competition. I told you she was very scheming. She just came to the family compound and hasn't even found her feet yet, but she's already thinking about the Outstanding Military Wife competition. She's really something. Why does she love to show off so much?"
She has won the title of Outstanding Model Military Wife several times and wants to win it again this year to bring honor to herself and her husband. She must not let anyone take it away from her.
She discussed with the man, "How about...we also adopt a retired military dog."
Xiaoqiang, who was inside the house, opened the door and came out after hearing her words. He said excitedly, "Mom, I heard everything. Come on, let's go adopt the child now."
"Have you finished your homework? After you finish your homework, you still have school in the afternoon. We can talk about adopting a dog later."
"I'm done. I'm done. I still have plenty of time after dinner before going to school."
"Eat first. There's no point in rushing. I'll go to the army this afternoon to see if there's anyone suitable."
"All right."
Lu Guodong went to the army in the afternoon and found out that there was a retired military dog waiting to be adopted.
He told the trainer that his children liked dogs and hoped to adopt one.
The instructor was very happy. The sister-in-law in the family compound was much more reliable than unfamiliar people from outside.
Lu Guodong sent someone to the family compound to inform Hu Guifen to try to get along with the military dog.
Hu Guifen hates cats and dogs the most. Having children is already annoying enough, and now she has to raise a dog.
It was even more annoying, but for the title of an excellent military wife and the promise of having a child, I had to compromise and thought of taking the child home directly.
She pulled the leash hard, but the military dog didn't move and didn't want to go with her. It even barked at her.
Hu Guifen found it very noisy and irritating, so she pointed at its nose and scolded, "Why are you yelling? Shut up! I'm your new master, so be polite to me and you'll get what you deserve."
Gao Zhuang couldn't bear it any longer and stepped forward to grab the rope from her hand. "Sister-in-law, adopting a military dog requires fate. You can't just take it home. You have to try to get along with Patton first. If it likes its new owner, we will be at ease to hand it over to you."
He felt that Hu Guifen didn't like dogs and didn't know why she adopted one.
"Get along? How? Isn't it enough to just take it home and feed it good food and drink? Oh my! You don't want me to treat it the same way I treat my son, do you? It's just a dog, it can't talk, and it won't understand anything I say. I just give it a bite of food, and it guards the house for me, isn't that enough?"
Gao Zhuang treats all the military dogs as his own children. The military dogs have been strictly screened and are as smart as eight or nine-year-old children.
He hopes that the families of retired military dogs truly love them.
"You have to try to get along with them first to see if you can get along. This is one of the requirements for adoption."
"Be good, big dog, come home with me and I'll give you something delicious. Let's go." Hu Guifen said it very stiffly, as if she was forced to say it.
This dead dog is so pretentious. It's good enough that she is willing to adopt it, but she refuses to take him back personally. Does she have to invite him in a sedan chair?
Don't even take a piss and look in the mirror to see if you are worthy.
The military dog was very smart and could sense her hostility towards him. He didn't want to go with her, so he hid behind Gao Zhuang, closed his eyes with a look of despair, and never looked at her again.
"We have food to eat at home, so we won't starve to death. But in the countryside, people still can't get enough to eat."
Gao Zhuang said, "Sister-in-law, I'm sorry, you don't meet the adoption requirements. Please go back."
"Li Jiyue is fine, so why can't I adopt one? My husband is the head of a group, and our family conditions are no worse than his. We can afford to raise a dog."
He said tactfully, "...Barton doesn't want to go with you. Why don't you reconsider it, or come back and adopt someone more suitable."
He felt that Hu Guifen didn't like dogs.
"I don't like it, but my son does. Even if I don't like it, I won't be short of food. I've already promised my son, so let me take it back. If I can't take a dog back today, my son will make a scene with me tonight and won't eat. Just give me the rope and leave the paperwork to my husband."
"Sister-in-law, I'm sorry, I don't think you're really suitable."
In the past, someone came to adopt a Husky and pretended to get along well with it. After adopting it, they ordered it to work and bit things with its mouth until its mouth was full of blood. Just now, they went to visit the adoptive family and found out about the Husky's condition, so they took it back.
People like Hu Guifen are even more inappropriate.
She doesn't even pretend, so how can she really like it?
No matter what Wu Guifen said, Gao Zhuang refused to let her take Patton away.
In the evening, she picked up Xiaoqiang who had just come home from school. When he came home and found that there was no dog, he felt that he had been cheated and locked himself in the room again. However, Hu Guifen did not take it seriously.
What she is more worried about now is whether Li Jiyue will snatch away the title of excellent military wife.
No, the excellent military wife can only be hers.
If she can't support it, Li Jiyue can't either!
