"Zhao, Zhao Qian, you, you put the knife down first."
The head of the Women's Federation was so scared that her voice was shaking. If someone's life was at stake, she shouldn't take this responsibility seriously.
"Jiang Yiyi, haven't you been waiting for this moment? You want me to be embarrassed in front of all the military wives. I won't do what you want. I..."
A figure rushed up from behind Zhao Qian and swiftly snatched the kitchen knife from her hand.
It’s Wang Shan.
Aunt Wang had left early. She was bored in the guesthouse so she came to find Jiang Yiyi. When she walked over here, she saw Zhao Qian holding a kitchen knife against her neck, so she rushed over.
She grew up in a military compound. When she was little, she followed Wang Yang and a group of other boys in the compound and learned some skills.
The kitchen knife was taken away, and before Zhao Qian could react, a member of the Women's Federation rushed over and slapped her hard.
Zhao Qian was confused.
The head of the Women's Federation was confused. After working as such for many years, this was the first time she lost control.
Jiang Yiyi walked quickly in front of Wang Shan and asked, "Are you okay?"
"No."
Wang Shan didn't take it seriously at all. She was very skilled and was on par with her brother. If her brother hadn't been a soldier and her parents had insisted on keeping her by their side, she would have joined the army long ago.
"Zhao Qian!"
The Women's Federation came back to her senses and took the initiative, "If you want to die, don't implicate others!"
Zhao Qian didn't really want to die, she just wanted to scare Jiang Yiyi. After being slapped, her head was buzzing, but she still shouted, "If you want me to apologize, I'll have to die!"
"Zhao Qian..."
Jiang Yiyi said in a neither loud nor low voice, "If you do something wrong, you must take responsibility. Not only will you ruin your own reputation, but you will also implicate Deputy Battalion Commander Yao."
"Bah! My man got promoted based on his real ability, who dares to touch him?"
She was stunned and said things without thinking.
All the wives of soldiers in the family compound were there, and when they heard her words, they immediately started talking.
Jiang Yiyi shook her head, not wanting to talk nonsense with Zhao Qian anymore, and said to Ren, "Ren, since Comrade Zhao Qian is unwilling to apologize, don't force her. I don't want to be threatened with a kitchen knife when I go to the back door."
Ren Xiao wanted to resolve the matter as soon as possible, so he nodded hurriedly, "Okay."
After saying this, he let the military wives disperse with lingering fear.
Jiang Yiyi gave the kitchen knife to the head of the Women's Federation and took Wang Shan home. Mrs. Qin and the other two didn't know who Wang Shan was and didn't follow them.
"Sister-in-law, what happened to that person?"
Jiang Yiyi told her the whole story. After listening, Wang Shan was very angry, "Sister-in-law, you have such a good temper. If it were me, I would slap her in the face and smash her mouth."
Jiang Yiyi smiled. Wang Shan’s temper was just what she wanted.
"Sister-in-law, when are we leaving tomorrow?"
"Let's go to the station this afternoon to see what time tickets are available."
"That's great."
The guesthouse was so boring that Wang Shan couldn't stay there for a moment.
"What do you want to eat in the afternoon? Sister-in-law will make it for you."
"If my sister-in-law does it, anything is fine."
She was not complimenting him. She was still savoring the meal Jiang Yiyi had prepared last night. She came to see Jiang Yiyi because she was bored staying in the guesthouse, but partly because she wanted to have a free meal here at noon.
"Then make some cold noodles, make more, and let Wang Yang come over to eat."
"good."
"Let's go buy groceries, and I'll make a phone call while we're at it."
The call was to Zhao Lan.
"Yiyi, you finally called me. Have you resolved the issue over there?"
"It's been solved. How's the factory doing?"
"Everything is ready, just waiting for you to come."
"I'll go buy the tickets this afternoon and tell you the time after I buy them. Yes, I'll bring a friend with me."
After hanging up the phone, the two went to buy vegetables. Wang Shan wanted to pay, but was stopped by Jiang Yiyi.
Back home, Wang Shan picked and washed vegetables, Jiang Yiyi kneaded the dough, rolled the noodles, prepared shredded pork and several kinds of vegetable stews, boiled water, and asked Wang Shan to wait for Wang Yang and Gu Yunze at the gate of the family compound. She cooked the noodles at home on time.
The noodles were cooked, but there was still no sign of the people. Ten minutes later, the three came back.
"Why so late?"
"The troops have a mission and will set off early tomorrow morning."
Jiang Yiyi paused while serving the dishes and asked subconsciously, "Is it dangerous?"
"There is no mission that is not dangerous. We are used to it."
Wang Yang took over the conversation, and just as he finished speaking, he was kicked by his sister. He reacted and said quickly, "But sister-in-law, don't worry. Yunze is good at fighting and has quick reactions. He has never been injured."
"Do you need me to prepare anything?"
This time Wang Yang didn't respond. Gu Yunze replied, "Just pack some daily necessities."
Jiang Yiyi nodded.
Wang Shan looked thin and weak, but she had a big appetite and ate two bowls of rice. Gu Yunze and Wang Yang ate more, and only Jiang Yiyi ate one bowl.
She ate late in the morning and was not very hungry. Wang Yang and his sister were worried about her, so they helped her wash up after dinner and then left.
"Wife, we often do this kind of mission, it's okay."
Gu Yunze was worried about her and comforted her. Jiang Yiyi was indeed worried. She nodded and asked, "How long will it take for you to come back?"
“I don’t know yet.”
Jiang Yiyi didn't tell him anything. Gu Yunze had been a soldier for many years and had more experience on the battlefield than her.
"Then call me when you get back from the mission, and I'll be back immediately."
"good."
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
There was a noise downstairs, followed by the sound of a child crying.
Gu Yunze frowned. Yao Zheng was on this mission, so why was Zhao Qian making a fuss at this time?
Jiang Yiyi told him what happened in the afternoon.
After listening to this, Gu Yunze guessed that Yao Zheng knew about Xiao Wu's incident and got angry with Zhao Qian.
"Zhao Qian is narrow-minded. I don't know how she will bear a grudge against you this time. It's just right for you to go to the provincial capital. Then I don't have to worry about you."
A gentleman is easy to guard, but a villain is hard to guard against. Who knows, someday Zhao Qian might go crazy and cause trouble for Yiyi again.
Soon there was no movement in the building, but there was a knock on the door. Gu Yunze opened the door and Yao Zheng was standing outside, looking apologetic. "Yunze, I'm here to apologize to my sister-in-law. It's my fault for not disciplining Zhao Qian and letting her talk nonsense."
"I accept your apologies."
Jiang Yiyi didn't make things difficult for him.
Yao Zheng is really shameless. As a military wife, other people's families live a peaceful and stable life, but Zhao Qian has to gossip, spread rumors and slander everywhere. Especially saying that in front of all the military wives.
"Let her go, I'll send her away this afternoon."
Letting Zhao Qian come with the army was the worst mistake he had ever made, and he would never let Zhao Qian come again.
Gu Yunze actually admired Yao Zheng's decisiveness this time. It was indeed not appropriate for Zhao Qian to stay in the family quarters, but he did not say anything. This was Yao Zheng's business and he could not interfere. .
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Yao Zheng smiled bitterly, went downstairs, found a secluded place, and smoked several cigarettes.
Zhao Qian was introduced by her parents. They didn't have much contact before and after marriage. It was not until Zhao Qian gave birth to a child and wanted to join the army that he sent someone over.
As long as he was in the army, he rarely asked about family matters. He listened to whatever Zhao Qian said. He always thought she was very sensible, but he didn't expect her to be such a person.
