Chapter 302: Called by full name, it's over

"What's the matter?" Qian Guiying's man put down the newspaper and looked over.

He was busy with work, rushing about all day, often only able to sleep four or five hours a day. How could Qian Guiying bear to bother him with those messy things?

It was no wonder the man didn't know.

"It's just Comrade Bai's matter; this isn't the first time..." Qian Guiying informed her husband about past events and what happened today one by one.

The dignified man sitting on the sofa frowned.

"There's this matter too."

His tone was very light, "That Comrade Bai's approach is indeed lacking consideration. This is not conducive to the harmony of the military region."

"It's not just unfavorable to harmony; Zhang Ping and Bai Taohua have formed a deadly feud; the two fight whenever they meet," Qian Guiying said.

After finishing, she actually smiled, "Today's scene was beyond my expectations."

"What do you mean?" Her man didn't understand.

In their own home, happening to have time, Qian Guiying said directly: "Comrade Zhang Ping and Comrade Bai Taohua have clashed many times; every time Zhang Ping suffered, it's the first time Bai Taohua has suffered."

"You don't like Comrade Bai?" Her man's dignified eyes looked over.

Qian Guiying was also a woman; how could she not see Bai Taohua's little tricks? She had also warned Bai Taohua, but the other party would cry and admit her mistake every time, saying she didn't mean it, would pay attention in the future, and asked the leader not to dislike the three of them, mother and daughters. After several times, the Women's Director was fed up and naturally didn't like Bai Taohua.

She didn't speak, just threw over a "what do you think" look.

The dignified man said: "If you feel she's not right, just send her away."

Men, they think simply.

Qian Guiying looked at her husband helplessly, "Do you think this is a simple matter?"

Her expression was complex, "Do you believe that if I mention this, that Comrade Bai will jump into the river again?"

Even the great chief in a high position was afraid of women who would cry, make a scene, and hang themselves. Hearing this, he also felt it was difficult to handle.

"Damn it!" His fingertips ran through his half-white short hair, and he couldn't help but curse, "There's never a shortage of trouble!"

Qian Guiying knew her rough man couldn't do the work she was responsible for, and smiled: "Don't worry about it; I have a plan in mind."

Looking at the wrinkles between her husband's brows, she found it funny.

"Your work isn't easy either; Comrade Qian has worked hard." The dignified man rarely said a warm word to his wife of half a lifetime.

Qian Guiying had the introversion unique to this era. Hearing her husband's emotional words, she looked away uncomfortably.

"Why say this? I'm going to check the vegetable garden."

As she spoke, she got up and walked outside.

The great chief also had to eat, and his family had to maintain a simple style, so naturally, there was a vegetable garden.

After Qian Guiying finished her work in the vegetable garden, her heart became calm, although she hadn't thought of a permanent solution to the conflict between Bai Taohua and other military wives.

The next day, she arrived at the office.

Everyone else had arrived, and there were sounds of discussion everywhere; it was rarely this lively.

"Did you hear about yesterday's matter?"

"So many people saw it; how closed off must one be not to have heard..." a comrade muttered.

"Officer Jiang, I heard that Comrade Bai suffered a loss." Another person looked at the woman sitting by the window.

This Officer Jiang had hair only a little bit below her ears, combed meticulously, and her clothes were clean and tidy. There was no smile on her face, and she looked serious and hard to get along with. Usually, no one took the initiative to talk to her, but today the situation was special—

Who didn't know that Officer Jiang was very dissatisfied with Comrade Bai staying in the military region? If one had to say it was just because it didn't comply with regulations at the beginning, the later deepening dissatisfaction was purely Bai Taohua's own doing.

At this time, Officer Jiang smiled coldly, "I knew there would be such a day, just didn't expect it to come so late."

With Bai Taohua's personality and character, if she met a fool, such as Zhang Ping, she would definitely have the upper hand, but if she met someone smart, she would flip over sooner or later.

Look.

Sure enough, as she expected.

"Officer Jiang still has foresight." The person who spoke flattered her a little, curiously asking, "How does Officer Jiang think Director Qian will deal with Comrade Bai? Let her leave the military region?"

Officer Jiang's eyes were a bit unfocused, coldly saying: "Don't know."

She was just that kind of personality; the people in the office didn't care and continued to discuss.

"If you ask me, it's better to let her move away! Many things have her involved; once she leaves, the family compound can be quiet and peaceful for the most part." A comrade from Officer Jiang's faction took the lead in expressing her opinion.

From this person's statement, one could see that she was also a straightforward person and had no good feelings for the crying Bai Taohua.

The person sitting at the door said: "Comrade Bai is so good at crying; what if she ruins our military region's reputation by letting her move away? Don't let rumors spread that our military region bullies the widow of a hero..."

"Comrade Xiao Huang is right; this matter must be handled with caution." Officer Jiang said, "Don't forget, that Comrade Bai jumped into the river."

If something else happens, the military region won't be able to clear its name.

Xiao Huang was encouraged by Officer Jiang's praise.

Wow, Officer Jiang praised someone for the first time.

"How to do it specifically still needs Director Qian to discuss it again." Officer Jiang drank a sip of tea and said lightly.

Yes, no matter how much they talked, it was useless; it had to be discussed by the leaders.

Qian Guiying came in under these circumstances.

As soon as she arrived, she was surrounded by others, asking about what happened yesterday in a jumble of voices.

"Director, we were just waiting for you; we want to ask, how will Bai Taohua be handled?" The impatient person asked immediately.

Even the calm Officer Jiang couldn't help but fix her gaze on the Director.

Qian Guiying faced the eager gazes of the comrades, didn't rush to speak, walked to her desk, and put down the things in her hand.

She looked up at the comrades.

"What are your views? This isn't a meeting; everyone speak freely, say what you think in your heart," Qian Guiying said.

The people in the office didn't know if the leader was speaking from the heart; for a time, the atmosphere was silent, and no one made a sound.

Officer Jiang took the lead, "I'll go first."

She put down her teacup and said seriously: "My attitude has never changed; I still think she must be sent away. The military has military discipline and cannot be broken. Opening this gap is not good for future management."

"I'm done."

Others looked at her with the gaze of looking at a warrior.

As expected of the straightforward Officer Jiang.

Qian Guiying didn't express her position, just nodded lightly, "Officer Jiang's suggestion is to send her away; what about the others?"

"I support what Officer Jiang said."

"Me too."

More than half of the people supported sending her away.

The remaining part had too strong a sense of honor and also agreed, but said: "If we really want to send her away, we must discuss a charter so she doesn't go out and ruin the military's reputation. I don't have confidence in Comrade Bai's character."

"That's right, that's right. She is so good at acting; if she goes out and cries, saying we bullied their orphans and widows, where can we go to complain about being wronged?"

Qian Guiying nodded.

"We must discuss a charter. Everyone go to the conference room in a while; let's discuss it. It's best to settle this matter today."

The moment the words fell, she took her enamel mug to get water.

Dropping a bomb, the office became lively again.

"What does this mean? Are they really going to send her away!?" The person near the door was shocked.

A smile flashed in Officer Jiang's eyes, fleeting, "When has the Director ever joked? It should be true. Next, we have a tough battle to fight; everyone, cheer up."

Getting the confirmation, her spirit was visibly invigorated.

She called her capable subordinates to tidy up the conference room and prepare for the meeting.

Bai Taohua temporarily had no way of knowing the military region's decision.

After clashing with Lin Zhao, her reputation plummeted. For the next few days, she honestly acted as a transparent person, and there weren't so many trivial matters to ask for help. Even her two daughters were ordered by her to stay at home and were not allowed to go anywhere.

On the contrary, Zhang Ping, on the day she won the argument, climbed the Gu family's door again and sent Lin Zhao two big pumpkins.

Afraid she wouldn't be willing to accept them, she ran away after putting the things down.

"..."

Lin Zhao retracted her hand, looked at Gu Chenghuai, and pointed to the pumpkin, "Can I accept it?"

Before, she definitely wouldn't have asked much, but isn't the situation different now?

"Yes, ordinary dealings, it's nothing," Gu Chenghuai said steadily.

Her own man's performance in the face of the green tea white lotus was exceptionally excellent. Lin Zhao naturally had to praise him, praise him highly.

She looked at Gu Chenghuai with brimming eyes, her eyes like stars.

"Battalion Commander Gu, you did well today; you know how to protect your own wife. I am very satisfied."

Gu Chenghuai was overjoyed by his wife's praise, but he kept a straight face on the surface, only the slightly upturned corners of his mouth revealing a trace of his mood.

"It's what I should do; we are a couple; if I don't protect you, who do I protect?"

And.

This matter isn't over.

He will also report it to the higher-ups.

A comrade's two girls opened their mouths to curse someone as a vixen; who did they learn it from?

Their father was a hero; they live in the military base and are children of the military; if there is a problem with the children's character, it cannot be ignored!

Later, Gu Chenghuai did report it, and the military region's handling of Bai Taohua was even faster.

Especially since the investigation results showed that Bai Taohua had borrowed money from no fewer than five married soldiers and didn't pay it back. There were also criticisms regarding her personal problems, and even more... she wanted to destroy a military marriage.

Borrowing money was a matter of mutual consent, and getting too close to married soldiers could also be said that both sides were at fault, but Bai Taohua couldn't wash away the point of wanting to destroy a military marriage.

Her own daughter exposed her; how could she wash it away?!

Thus, Bai Taohua was persuaded to leave.

Out of consideration for the deceased, the military didn't do it too absolutely, proposing that she and her two daughters move out of the family compound and arrange another job for her outside...

Bai Taohua refused to accept it and made a big scene with her children.

Because of this, the family compound had so much fun that it was dazzling.

Children who couldn't squeeze in climbed trees to watch, and Gu Hangbao was one of them.

Seeing his younger brother climbing the tree, Xiang Yubao looked up, opened his hands, and shouted anxiously: "Gu Hangbao, Mom doesn't let us climb trees; hurry down."

Gu Hangbao sat on the long branch that stretched out, his eyes bright, "It's so high, I can see really clearly. It's fine, I'm sitting very steadily. Brother, you come up too."

Xiang Yubao was an obedient child; he didn't do things Mom didn't let him do.

He said angrily: "Gu Hangbao, if you don't come down, if Mom hits you, I won't help you!"

"I'll come down in a while." Gu Hangbao had finally occupied the best spot to watch the gossip; of course, he wasn't willing to come down.

Xiang Yubao was anxious and angry, stamping his feet under the tree.

Mao Dan'er patted his shoulder to comfort him, then shouted to Gu Hangbao on the tree: "You come down; if you don't come down, we're going to call Auntie Lin."

While threatening, he pulled Xiang Yubao and the others, making a gesture to leave.

Seeing this, Gu Hangbao was anxious, "I'm coming down, I'm coming down, don't tell my mom."

He slid down in a flurry, but didn't know his right foot was caught by a diagonally inserted branch, and his body fell uncontrollably.

Only heard a thud.

He fell down.

Xiang Yubao's face turned pale with fright, his voice off-key due to worry, "Gu Hangbao!"

"Are you okay?" He ran toward Gu Hangbao, reaching out to support his brother.

Gu Hangbao was stunned by the fall, lying on the ground for a long time without regaining his senses.

Mao Dan'er helped Xiang Yubao support Gu Hangbao, also asking anxiously: "How are you? Are you hurt?!"

Jing Mo was still calm, reaching out to pinch Gu Hangbao's philtrum, hurting Gu Hangbao until he let out an "ow."

He regained his senses in a daze, and just as he was about to get up, a burst of pain came from his ankle. He couldn't help but hiss twice, actually not crying, but his tone carried fear.

"... I, my foot hurts."

Only then did the child know fear.

Gu Hangbao grabbed his brother's arm, saying fearfully: "Brother, am I going to become a cripple? I'm scared."

Xiang Yubao was originally angry at his brother for not listening, but seeing his ankle swollen, only heartache remained, "Don't be afraid, we'll take you to the hospital. With Little Uncle here, you won't become a cripple."

He was also just a child and was also scared, his voice shaking as he spoke.

At this time, Mao Dan'er called a soldier.

That soldier glanced at the tree nearby; after Gu Hangbao fell, the children above were long gone.

"Fell while climbing a tree?" The young soldier picked up Gu Hangbao, his eyes helpless, actually not surprised.

There were many boys in the military region, and their personalities were all mischievous; climbing trees was a common thing, but falling and spraining an ankle... not many.

This one from Battalion Commander Gu's family was the third one.

"Uncle, will I become a cripple?" Gu Hangbao asked the military uncle who was holding him.

The young soldier saw the child's eyes were wet and he was about to cry at any time, so he comforted him: "No, it should be a sprain; just take good care of it and it will be fine."

"Really?" Gu Hangbao confirmed again.

"Really, if you don't believe me, ask the doctor yourself later," the young soldier said.

Feeling Gu Hangbao was so strange, he actually didn't cry after spraining his foot. He lowered his head and looked at the little boy, "Does your foot not hurt?"

"... It hurts," Gu Hangbao gritted his teeth, "It hurts like hell!"

He had an expression of being in pain.

"Then why don't you cry?"

Gu Hangbao's body was as stiff as a zombie, especially the injured foot, which was stretched very tight, afraid of touching it.

"What's the use of crying? It still hurts if I cry."

And it would make Mao Dan'er and the others laugh at him; he didn't want that.

Xiang Yubao's short legs took three steps as five, following closely beside his brother, his expression anxious and worried.

"Gu Hangbao, hold on a bit longer, we're almost at the hospital!"

The group quickly headed toward the military hospital, attracting passersby to look over one after another.

Lin Zhao learned that Gu Hangbao had fallen from a tree and entered the hospital, and was scared quite a bit, hurriedly running toward the hospital.

When she arrived, Gu Hangbao was lying on the hospital bed, his injured foot fixed, and he was eating an apple.

Lin Zhao was so angry she laughed.

She exhaled the turbid air from her chest, walked over slowly, ignored the second cub who was looking at her for comfort, turned her head and asked Meng Jiusi, "Little Brother, how is Gu Gu Zhihang?"

Called by full name, it's over.

Gu Hangbao:... (?? ﹏????)

Meng Jiusi patted his nephew's head. Now you know fear? You stinky brat.

He explained, "Foot sprained, applied a plaster, it will be fine in a few days." ===== CHAPTER 303 =====
