Chapter 1287: This Trip Was Worth It

~4 min read 737 words

As soon as these words were spoken, many couldn't hold back their laughter, leaving Cui Wenbing and his wife feeling as if they were sitting on pins and needles, especially since Commander Guan was right there.

After all, it wasn't anything honorable. Commander Guan spoke coldly: "Cui Wenbing, if one cannot sweep a single room, how can one sweep the world? If such an incident happens again, I will directly record a demerit against you. There is no reason for your family's child to disturb the peace of the entire family compound. Write a self-criticism on this matter and submit it today."

Now Zhang Lianhua panicked as well: "Um, Leader, this is my fault. I failed to teach my child well. We apologize, and we will pay for the sesame cakes. Please spare my husband."

Seeing Commander Guan's face grow even darker, Cui Wenbing was terrified. He quickly tugged Zhang Lianhua, gritted his teeth, and whispered: "Shut up! You are useless for success but good at causing failure. Why add to the chaos now?"

Cui Wenbing turned to Commander Guan, saluted, and said: "The Commander is right. I will teach them well and guarantee such an incident will never happen again."

While speaking, he took a dime from his pocket and handed it to Tao Yushan: "This money is from Uncle to compensate you for the sesame cakes. You have suffered an injustice."

Tao Saozi thought that since the relationship was already broken, even if there was no deep grudge, there would likely be a rift between the two families from now on. Since her daughter had eaten the sesame cakes, compensation was only fair.

Tao Yushan did not reach out immediately. He looked up at his mother, and upon receiving her signal, he reached out to take the dime. However, because of this incident, the little boy had his own temper: "I will never play with Cui Yu again. She is a bad child."

After finishing, he let out a "Hmph!"

If it were any other day, Tao Saozi would have considered the men's face, but today, since her son had suffered such a great injustice, she did not want to lecture her son in front of so many people.

Seeing the matter settled, Commander Guan said: "Alright, everyone, you may disperse."

Seeing that the Leader had spoken, and feeling truly satisfied with the outcome today, everyone dispersed while murmuring quietly.

Seeing the Leader standing at the gate of Company Commander Fu's courtyard, Tao Saozi guessed he might have something to say. She thanked Liu Chuxue and Mo Ruhua while holding her son's hand, had her son greet Commander Guan politely, and then led her son home first, planning to come back later to thank them properly.

Mo Ruhua had wanted to speak with Liu Chuxue, but was dragged by her own husband towards the courtyard: "Didn't you see the Leader has something to discuss with Sister-in-law?"

Mo Ruhua glanced over at Liu Chuxue, raised her hand to wave at her, and followed her husband into the courtyard.

Cui Wenbing felt it was too shameful. He pushed his wife, who was still glaring at Company Commander Fu's wife and Deputy Company Commander Shen's courtyard, back into their yard: "What was that expression just now? Don't you see the situation? Do you want me to strip off this uniform and take you all back to farm the land?"

Zhang Lianhua naturally knew her husband's temper and feared he would beat her later: "Are you hungry? I'll go make food right now."

She didn't even bother to look after her little daughter, quickly picked up the vegetables she had sorted earlier, and ran into the kitchen.

Seeing everyone had left, Liu Chuxue originally intended to invite Commander Guan into the courtyard.

Unexpectedly, Commander Guan spoke first: "I came to pass a message for Fu Yan Cheng. He will be back tonight, so please do not worry."

Hearing these words, Liu Chuxue finally put down the worry she had been holding. After all, those people could hide for so long; they must not be ordinary individuals. Fearing for their lives, they were likely all desperate men: "Thank you, Leader, for making this special trip."

Commander Guan glanced at the Cui family house diagonally across: "This trip was worth it. I hope that after this, such incidents will never happen in the compound again, restoring peace to the family courtyard."
