Gu Mingze stopped only after he had vented his anger. He let them train well, dusted himself off, and walked away in a cool manner.

When they got home from get off work at night, the group of military wives who huddled together saw their men coming back covered in wounds.

They all came forward with a look of heartache and asked them how they did it.

"I don't know what's wrong with our team leader today. He came to spar with us during our training, and it turned out like this?" Wu Zhiqiang covered the corner of his mouth that hurt whenever he spoke, and said with a hissing laugh.

When Xu Meili heard what her husband said, her heart skipped a beat. She said with a bad face, "Do you think it's possible that I went to Gu's house today and said a few unpleasant words, and Captain Gu held a grudge against me, so he took revenge on me?"

"It's very likely, otherwise he wouldn't suddenly come to compete with us, this petty-minded person." Wu Zhiqiang said angrily after hearing this, and then said disdainfully:

"Just wait. Someone like him who can cause trouble for us for such a small matter will definitely not be able to accomplish anything big. I will find an opportunity to cause him some trouble and see if he can continue to be the leader."

"I will also join forces with a few sisters here, and we will go and cause trouble for their family members and see how long they can endure." Xu Meili is not as beautiful as her name suggests, she is fat and has a lot of palpitations. After listening to her husband's words, she sat there and began to think about how to cause trouble for Lu Qingyan.

Lu Qingyan didn't know that she was about to get into trouble. After hearing what her man said, she smiled happily.

But after laughing, he asked with a worried look on his face: "Mingze, will there be any impact if you do this? After all, we are new here, and I am afraid that doing this will have a bad impact."

"It's okay. This is all normal competition. It's allowed by the higher-ups. Don't worry. I know what's going on." Gu Mingze had worked hard to get to his current position and could give his wife a better life. He wouldn't go looking for trouble to affect himself.

He persuaded his wife that he would handle these matters himself and she shouldn't worry about him.

"Then you can handle it yourself. I won't ask any more questions." Lu Qingyan didn't know what to say.

Then he called everyone over to eat, and after dinner, the family started to work in the yard.

"We can plant some squash, horned melons, and melon seeds in the corners here, and plant some vegetables in the remaining good land. If we can't eat them, we can dry them into dried vegetables. This way, we don't have to buy vegetables all the time."

Mother Lu was mowing the grass in the yard while she followed the old man and said

"Okay, if we can't eat vegetables then, we can plant some sweet potatoes and potatoes, which can be eaten as food." After saying this, Father Lu suddenly remembered his wooden basins, and said, "When my wooden basins arrive, we can add some soil there and plant some vegetables, so that we won't be short of vegetables in the winter."

"In this way, our family will basically not need to buy vegetables except for some food, meat and eggs." Lu Qingyan heard the two elders' words and couldn't help laughing and said

"Of course not. We have to be frugal in our daily lives so that we can save money and not worry about food and drink in the future." Upon hearing this, Mother Lu raised her head proudly and said

"My mother is amazing." Lu Qingyan really admired her mother's careful budgeting, and she couldn't help but give her a thumbs up and praised her.

"Oh, how many rural people don't know how to budget carefully?" What Lu's mother said was the truth. They all came from a poor time. Even though they are now well-off, they are still used to budgeting carefully.

This will make them think that only by being thrifty can they live a better life.

Otherwise, if she saw her daughter spending money lavishly every day, she would tremble in her heart.

I was afraid that they would spend all their money and would have a hard life in the future.

In this way, the family chatted while working. When it was dark, the family went into the house, washed up, and went back to their rooms to rest.

The next morning, when Lu's mother got up and prepared dinner, Li Guilian called out in the yard: "Aunt, have you prepared dinner? I heard that a batch of meat has arrived at the supply and marketing cooperative today. Let's go and queue up now, maybe we can buy more."

"The meal is ready. Wait for me to go in and get the money. We'll leave now." After hearing this, Mother Lu hurriedly responded, went into the house to get the money, wrapped it in a handkerchief, and put it in her pocket.

He let the old man and the others take their own bowls to eat, and then walked out quickly.

"Auntie, let me tell you something. There is a lady named Qin in our army. She likes to take advantage of others. If you see her, stay away from her to prevent her from taking advantage of you."

Li Guilian and Lu's mother were walking on the road, whispering about who in the army liked to take advantage and who was unreasonable.

"It's okay. I'm an old lady. If anyone dares to take advantage of me, I will just live in her house and won't leave." Mother Lu is not afraid of this kind of thing. She is used to seeing people who like to take advantage of others in the countryside.

Now that I'm in Kyoto, I'm no longer afraid. After all, people in the army like to save face, and usually just minor fights are let go with a few words.

But once someone makes a big deal out of it, everyone will get scared.

So she really wasn't afraid of anyone taking advantage of her.

"That's right. You are about the same age as Aunt Qin, so you can talk to her without shame. But we, the younger generation, can't. Once we say something, Aunt Qin will quarrel with us. We usually stay away from her when we see her."

Li Guilian learned this lesson after suffering several setbacks since she moved in.

If you can't afford to offend, then just hide and wait until you can't avoid it anymore.

As the two were talking, they unknowingly arrived at the supply and marketing cooperative and saw quite a few people queuing up in front of them.

Li Guilian hurriedly pulled Lu's mother's hand and went forward to line up.

By the time it was their turn, there was still a lot of meat left.

Li Guilian gritted her teeth and bought a pound of meat before going to wait by the side.

But Lu's mother was not so distressed. She went forward and bought two pounds of pork belly and two big bones.

"Auntie, there is no meat on these bones. It's a waste to buy them. You have this meat ticket, so you might as well buy some more meat to eat." Li Guilian watched Lu's mother buy two bones and stepped forward to persuade her.

"I'm telling you, I'll make soup with my bones. Drinking it will help the children grow taller and supplement calcium, which is good for their health." Upon hearing this, Mother Lu took out her handkerchief and paid for the tickets while talking to Li Guilian about the nutrients in the bones.

"Hey, there are so many stories about big bones." Li Guilian came from the countryside and didn't have much education. She really didn't know that there were so many stories about big bones.

Hearing what Lu's mother said, he couldn't help but take out his money and bought two big bones to take back.

"Hey, Guilian, why did you buy two big bones? It just so happens that I don't have any meat coupons with me today. How about you return these two big bones and lend me the meat coupons?"
