Her sudden, unexpected move caught not only Commander Mo off guard, but also Battalion Commander Li, who had been swaggering just moments before, completely stunned.
He was so angry that he just wanted to beat up his idiot wife and teach Xia Wenhua a lesson, completely forgetting that this was a military camp.
The woman from Battalion Commander Li's family rushed in with a loud shout and immediately determined that Battalion Commander Li had not committed domestic violence.
Unfortunately, she still has the slap mark on her face from the fury of Battalion Commander Li. Anyone with eyes can see whether she has been a victim of domestic violence.
Domestic violence might be considered a private family matter outside the military, and no one might care. But in the military, it's a serious matter.
If no one knows about it at home, that's fine, but once it gets out, it's definitely a matter of character.
At least for now, Commander Mo's anger was even greater than before.
"Li Gang, as a soldier of the People's Liberation Army, you should be protecting the people. Your fists should be used to strike the enemy, not to lash out at your own family!"
He roared, ignoring the defense of Battalion Commander Li's wife, and immediately ordered his guards to come in and take Li Gang to the solitary confinement room.
Xia Wenhua became famous overnight.
Even though it wasn't time for several people to issue an apology over the loudspeaker, everyone in the residential compound knew that Xia Wenhua was not someone to be trifled with.
Xia Wenhua didn't care what others thought; she was in a very good mood today because she had swatted away the annoying fly.
The family had just moved in, and they hadn't had a proper housewarming party yet.
Today she bought a lot of food at the market, and since she had just won a great victory in taking down the scumbags, Xia Wenhua decided to cook a delicious meal to reward herself and her family.
There are four people in the family. The two little ones can't even finish a bowl of rice, so we won't worry about their appetite for now.
She and Pei Songbai were the only two people eating properly. Her appetite was normal, but Pei Songbai's appetite was equivalent to three times that of a normal adult.
After thinking for a moment, Xia Wenhua looked at the ingredients she had bought and decided on today's dinner: braised chicken pieces, stir-fried pork with chili peppers, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, and a cucumber salad.
This should be enough for her and Pei Songbai. Children shouldn't eat food with strong flavors, and of these four, only the scrambled eggs with tomatoes is edible.
Looking at the high-quality farm-raised pork in her basket, Xia Wenhua remembered that on the way back today, Sister Huang and Sister Ye had been grumbling that this piece of meat could last for a week or two. She shook her head, banishing the terrible thought.
Lastly, let's have some crispy fried pork, so that the two little ones can also experience how happy she is as a mother!
Xia Wenhua started her live-streaming career as a food streamer and later personally trained streamers specializing in cooking skills.
Her skills, if not outstanding, are certainly much better than most.
Food vloggers focus on taste; even if she didn't cook it herself, she still has an appreciation for food.
Needless to say, for food vloggers, whether it tastes good or not is secondary; the presentation must be beautiful, and the main goal is to make people think the food looks delicious just by looking at it.
Xia Wenhua takes everything very seriously. Back then, she diligently studied how to achieve the best live-streaming results, and thus gradually developed her cooking skills.
Braised chicken pieces take the most time. She chopped half of the chicken she bought today into small pieces, marinated it with scallions, ginger, garlic and white wine, before preparing the other ingredients.
Cooking live streams are all about aesthetics, and Xia Wenhua's knife skills have long been honed to a level of unparalleled mastery.
In less than ten minutes, the ingredients for the dishes she was going to make were all prepared and laid out to the side.
Estimating that there was still about half an hour before Pei Songbai got off work, she started heating oil in a wok to prepare a meal.
Food cooked in a large wok over a wood fire is more fragrant, and she prepared all three dishes by stir-frying them in the large wok.
As for the small pot next to it, it had already been filled with half a bucket of cooking oil smuggled from the supermarket, ready to fry crispy pork for the two kids later.
When it was time to leave work in the afternoon, the two nearby alleys were filled with delicious smells.
Xia Wenhua thought that her two little ones would definitely rush in to find her as soon as they smelled the fragrance after she got home, but things were a little different from what she imagined.
As soon as Pei Xiangchen entered the door, she grabbed her younger brother's hand and ran together, calling out for her mother as she ran.
"Mommy, Mommy!"
Xia Wenhua poked her head out from the kitchen: "I'm here."
Upon receiving Xia Wenhua's response, the two children immediately rushed in.
"Mommy, Mommy, Daddy got into a fight today." The first one to speak was always the quick-tongued Pei Xiangchen.
Pei Xiangguang, the younger brother, added from the side: "Dad is really awesome. He beat that uncle so badly he was rolling on his back... What was it again, brother?"
The two learned a new word from someone else and thought it was impressive, but they forgot it before they could even show it off to their mother.
They rushed in, leaving Pei Songbai behind, wanting to speak to Xia Wenhua before he did, but they suddenly found themselves speechless because they had forgotten a powerful idiom.
Children's competitive spirit always comes and goes quickly. Pei Xiangchen and Pei Xiangguang racked their brains but couldn't remember what the impressive word was. Then, they ran off to find Pei Songbai.
"Dad, what did you do to that uncle that made him run away on his tail?"
"Yeah, yeah, fart roll..."
Pei Songbai had always been good-tempered with the two kids, but now, listening to their constant chatter, he felt an urge to go back and give a good beating to those who were just watching the show and talking nonsense.
He squatted down and forced a smile: "Little kids shouldn't always imitate adults. That word is inappropriate, and good children won't say it. You shouldn't say it either, understand?"
"Is this bad?" Pei Xiangchen asked, bewildered.
"Is it really bad?" Pei Xiangguang blinked.
Both children look a lot like Xia Wenhua. They have big eyes and talk to people, and they often look thoughtful. They are so cute that they can melt your heart.
Pei Songbai picked up his two sons, one in each arm, and strode into the kitchen: "Alright, stop thinking about it. Let's go see what delicious food Mom made."
The strong smell could be smelled from outside, and when they returned, everyone was already guessing whose family was cooking something delicious.
Pei Songbai knew Xia Wenhua could cook, but it wasn't until he stepped into the kitchen that he dared to believe that the food, which tasted even better than what was served in restaurants, was actually made by his family.
Was his wife really this perfect? How many lifetimes of good karma did Pei Songbai have to burn to marry such a wonderful wife!
Xia Wenhua had already prepared several dishes before they entered the room.
She had just scooped the crispy pork out of the pot and hadn't even had a chance to let the two children try it when she heard them grumbling about it. She turned around and ran out again.
Seeing Pei Songbai come in, she wiped her hands and turned to ask, "Did you get into a fight with Battalion Commander Li?"
