Chapter 305: Left and right brain fighting

"Asleep?" Gu Chenghuai looked at the bunk bed and lowered his voice.

Lin Zhao covered the two sons with a blanket and answered with a breathy voice, "Just fell asleep, let's go out and talk."

The couple left the room.

Sat in the courtyard to talk.

"What's the situation?" Lin Zhao asked first.

Gu Chenghuai said concisely: "The telegram has been sent back; whether to send Little Stone to the provincial capital depends on Eldest Sister and Brother-in-law's wishes."

"What's your opinion?"

Gu Chenghuai looked at his wife and said: "It's a good opportunity. Don't look at the sports industry now; looking at it in the long run, it might not be a path more suitable for Little Stone to take."

He knew his nephew; he didn't have the brain for reading, and his personality was introverted and not active. The best result would be for the family to find him a job, honestly earn a dead salary, marry a wife, have children, and live a life.

Following the coach to the provincial capital might be a wide avenue.

Lin Zhao nodded, "I'm also optimistic."

It depends on whether Eldest Sister and Brother-in-law can bear to let the child go.

"Forget it, don't guess. We'll know when we go back."

Hearing this, Gu Chenghuai couldn't smile.

He opened his arms to hug Lin Zhao and buried his face in her shoulder.

Lin Zhao's brows and eyes curved, "Reluctant to let me go back?"

"Yes, reluctant," Gu Chenghuai didn't deny it.

"Wait until Battalion Commander Gu becomes Regiment Commander Gu, and I will bring the children over to follow the army..."

Before Lin Zhao's words fell, Gu Chenghuai loosened his arms, his pitch-black eyes locking onto her, his brows and eyes carrying expectation, "You said it?"

"Yes, I said it," Lin Zhao said with a smile.

Gu Chenghuai's thoughts turned quickly, looking at his wife with expectation, "Next year?"

"It's all fine; I'll listen to your arrangements; the second half of the year is fine too. Aren't you unwilling?" Lin Zhao looked at him, her eyes containing smiles.

The man thought to himself, it wasn't that he was unwilling; he wished his wife and children wouldn't leave, and would always stay by his side.

He hurriedly explained, "How could I be unwilling..."

Before the man could explain, Lin Zhao raised her hand to cover his mouth, her voice dyed with a smile, "I'm joking; how could I not know you? You wish I would just stay like this, and even let the family send Qian Bao and Yao Bao over."

Gu Chenghuai nodded, "Yes, I truly thought so. This thought has been turning in my mind for several days."

Every night when his wife fell asleep on his chest, this thought would arise in the bottom of his heart.

The little person with intense emotions said righteously: Your wife has already come, why go back to the old home? There is a place to live, the house lacks nothing, keep her. Don't tell me you want to live in the dormitory again and live a monk's life...?!

The rational little person waved the flag: Be rational! You are about to go for further studies; do you have time to take care of your wife and children?! You have four children, all very young, and you have to manage their eating, drinking, and pooping. There is no one close in the family compound; do you want your wife to take care of four children alone?! If you aren't afraid of your wife resenting you, go ahead and let them come...

After a bout of left and right brain fighting, reason always occupied the upper hand.

The old home at least has people to help bring the four cubs, and Zhao Zhao can have time to catch her breath. Once she comes to follow the army, she can only take care of four children herself. Gu Chenghuai wanted to retreat just thinking about it.

"Wife, when you come to follow the army, let's find someone to help take care of the family." Gu Chenghuai thought of the Ning family's situation and felt it was a way.

He said to pay someone to cook and wash clothes.

Lin Zhao heard it, hesitated, "This isn't according to the rules, right? If someone reports it, it will definitely affect you. Why not just forget it."

"Find someone you can trust," Gu Chenghuai felt it was more and more feasible, "If others ask, just say it's family."

He and Lin Zhao discussed it, consulting his wife's opinion.

"Why not ask Mom and see if she has a good candidate? Must find someone diligent, honest, and clean. Must be clean; if not clean, you won't be comfortable."

Gu Chenghuai truly felt it could be operated, and after finishing, looked at Lin Zhao, wanting to know if she had any other concerns.

The man was trying hard to reduce his own pressure; how could Lin Zhao pour cold water? She had already agreed halfway in her heart.

"Can I still work when I come to follow the army?"

"Yes," Gu Chenghuai never thought that his wife must be at home, taking care of their daily life, washing clothes, and cooking. Home is everyone's home; whoever has time does it. His wife is not the long-term worker of the family.

"What work do you want to do? I'll keep an eye on it in advance."

Lin Zhao's eyes brightened slightly, looking at him amusedly, "Still have a choice?"

"At least it must satisfy you," Gu Chenghuai said.

"Then I want to engage in propaganda work."

"Still like writing and drawing, arrange it," Gu Chenghuai's voice was light and slow.

"I'm already looking forward to it," Lin Zhao's eyes were full of smiles.

The couple was talking when Zhang Ping appeared at the door, carrying a vegetable basket, with various seasonal vegetables in the basket.

"Didn't disturb you two, right?" Zhang Ping looked at the sticky little couple, her smile teasing.

Lin Zhao stood up to greet her, "No, Sister-in-law Ping, hurry in."

Gu Chenghuai poured water for the guest and turned into the children's room.

"You came, why bring vegetables? There are still vegetables at home." Lin Zhao took out peanuts and candy.

"Your family hasn't even cleared a vegetable garden; you have to buy all the vegetables you eat. I'll send you these; at least you can eat for a few meals," Zhang Ping said enthusiastically.

"Then thank you, Sister-in-law," Lin Zhao saw her sincerity and didn't refuse, thinking about giving her a bag of mung bean cakes as a return gift later for the children in Sister-in-law Ping's family to eat.

"No need to thank, I should thank you," Zhang Ping was full of smiles, looking like she had unloaded the burden on her body.

"Thank me? Thank me for what?" Lin Zhao didn't understand.

Zhang Ping drank a sip of water, feeling a sweetness spreading in her mouth, her eyes brightened, and her impression of the Gu family became even better.

She put down the bowl, restrained the smile on her face, and said seriously: "Why not thank you? If it weren't for you... I don't know how long Bai Taohua would have been rampant in the family compound! You tore off her true face, let her roll out of the military region, and vented my Chou Ding's anger and avenged him. I wish I could let Chou Ding acknowledge you as a godmother!"

Behind this, she was just saying it; Lin Meizi didn't have no sons, and her sons were generous and smart. Acknowledging her son as a godson, what kind of thing is that? Besides, acknowledging a god-relative isn't a simple matter. If one sticks to it without weight, this isn't gratitude, this is returning kindness with enmity!

"Comrade Bai left the military region?" Lin Zhao's gaze was surprised.

Is the military region so fast at solving people who cause trouble?

Decisive enough.

"Yes, Bai Taohua rolled away!" Zhang Ping smiled brightly, her mood also exceptionally refreshing, "She wasn't willing to go and wanted to play that trick of crying, making a scene, and hanging herself, but was stopped by someone. Director Qian gave her a warning, and finally, people were sent away without a moment's delay."

She didn't say that Bai Taohua also implicated Lin Zhao, scolding Lin Meizi for being meddlesome, and her two daughters also said unclean words.

This didn't bring her any benefits, but instead made Director Qian's anger even more vigorous, withdrawing all preferential treatment for Bai Taohua.

In the future, it would be impossible for Bai Taohua to touch any light from the military region.

"She is not upright; it wouldn't be long before this day came even without me. Sister-in-law, don't thank me. Besides, she targeted me, and I'm not a soft persimmon; I definitely have to fight back. It's also her bad luck that she provoked the leaders' dissatisfaction, which led to the consequence of being ordered to leave. It takes more than one cold day for the river to freeze three feet deep; everyone saw her actions. They didn't argue with her, probably out of respect for the hero's face. It's just that she didn't know that no matter how deep the human favor is, it will be exhausted. Having such an ending is also self-inflicted."

That's not it!

Zhang Ping shook her head in her heart.

She heard people say that Battalion Commander Gu and Doctor Meng took turns finding the leaders, demanding the military region punish those who destroy unity and harmony.

If it weren't for them, how could Bai Taohua roll out of the military region so quickly.

What Zhang Ping didn't know was that it wasn't just Gu Chenghuai and Meng Jiusi who found the leaders, but also Mao Dan'er.

His family had a big leader, and he saw him every day.

After Mao Dan'er went back and told his grandma, Old Lady Ning said: "The rules shouldn't be broken. This matter is noisy, and Lin Mei is also wronged, being scolded after going for a walk. When the military region considers the hero's widow, it must also consider other military wives; otherwise, how to convince the public."

Mao Dan'er ate meat in big mouthfuls and added: "Just wanted to destroy a military marriage, truly bad to the core."

Chief Ning took it to heart and didn't express his position at the dinner table.

Later, he let the police officer investigate. Indeed, Bai Taohua had the idea of destroying a military marriage. His brows knit until he could pinch a fly to death.

She was also a military wife; she should know how difficult it is to maintain a family. How could she have such an immoral idea? Her heart is bad to the core!

Chief Ning also spoke up.

Layer by layer, it was pressed down, so it was handled so quickly.

No one knew about these things.

At this time, Zhang Ping stared at Lin Zhao and didn't speak for a long time.

After a long while, she said: "Lin Meizi speaks in sets, looking like she has a lot of culture. You are a high-achieving student, right?"

"?" Lin Zhao was silent for a moment, then said: "Can't count as a high-achieving student, just a high school graduate."

"How can this not count as a high-achieving student!" Zhang Ping paid tribute, praising: "High school student, there aren't many high school students in our family compound. No wonder you look different from us; you are indeed a cultured person."

"Sister, you are a bright person and don't look at people from the top of your head. Although you are a cultured person, you aren't annoying."

Lin Zhao: "??"

What sin did cultured people commit? Why does it feel like Zhang Ping has a lot of opinions about cultured people?!

Soon, Zhang Ping gave her answer.

"Sister, I didn't say you are annoying; I mean some cultured people who don't look at people straight. They look at us from the countryside like looking at garbage, and look down on people at every turn. It's annoying."

There were military wives from the countryside in the family compound, and also military wives who were cultured people from the city.

Few from the countryside are literate, work agilely, are thrifty, and are good at housework and planting vegetables. They speak loudly, have urgent tempers, and many curse; those from the city are delicate, cultured, have jobs, and have good conditions in their maiden families, so they are naturally arrogant and look down on those sisters-in-law from the countryside who are rough and have many shortcomings.

Hating someone cannot be hidden. Those from the city look down on those from the countryside, and those from the countryside are too lazy to pay attention to those from the city, so the family compound is unconsciously divided into two factions.

Lin Zhao: "... Sister-in-law is also talking about the sisters-in-law in the family compound?"

"You'll know when you see more." Zhang Ping didn't say much, thinking that Lin Zhao was a high school student and a salesperson, she should be pulled over, and her face changed slightly.

She hurriedly said: "Lin Meizi, if the Fang family speaks ill of me and tells you not to get too close to me, you can't listen to her."

"Who is the Fang family?" Lin Zhao asked.

"Lin Meizi, don't worry about who she is for now; you promise me first." Zhang Ping looked at her and said.

"I promise you," Lin Zhao said with a smile, "Eating people's mouth is short; my whole family ate the pumpkin sent by Sister-in-law, of course I stand on your side."

Saying a few good words doesn't cost money; she is happy to say it.

Whether we can make deep friends in the future depends on whether our values match.

Zhang Ping beamed with joy, "Lin Meizi, don't worry, I'll cover your family's pumpkins in the future!"

Lin Zhao's mouth pulled out a smile, smiling like a flower.

"That's great; my family won't be short of pumpkins to eat."

Zhang Ping looked at her smile, slightly stunned, wondering why people say Battalion Commander Gu's wife doesn't look like the mother of four children. That face is several times better-looking than the Fang family's. It's true that she came from a big city. She didn't say it wrong; her Lin Meizi is good-looking. What's the word for it? People are better-looking than flowers.

"Lin Meizi, you and your man are truly a talented man and a beautiful woman, very well-matched," Zhang Ping couldn't help but say, "Battalion Commander Gu looks like a ghost-fearing person, making people want to stay far away from him, but I see he is okay at home, has work in his eyes, you have good fortune."

Where did she see it? Battalion Commander Gu poured water for the guest... this can explain many things. Her man spreads his hands at home and does nothing. If he couldn't earn money, he would truly be useless.

"???" Ghost... fearing?

Does Gu Chenghuai know that this is his evaluation in the family compound? It amused her to death.

Lin Zhao suppressed the laughter that was about to overflow, "He is not bad. If he wasn't okay, could I marry him? Could I give birth to children for him? I'm not stupid."

She is also pointing at this enthusiastic and capable sister-in-law, don't be so self-sacrificing. Men can't be spoiled, especially those who are male chauvinists; don't give too much face.

Who has no contribution at home? Why should a full-time housewife be humble to the dust!!

So what if the sky is lifted.

These words brought some touch to Zhang Ping.

She is stupid, knowing that men can't be relied on, yet still giving birth to several children for him.

But.

Before knowing Bai Taohua, her man wasn't so unreasonable and was okay to her and the children. How could a person change so fast.

Forget it, let's live like this. There are children; can't divorce. Even if divorced, she doesn't have the confidence to live better than now.

Zhang Ping left the Gu family and returned to her own home. The man was sitting in the courtyard with a blank face.

"Where did you go?" he questioned coldly.

"Went out to visit, why, do you have something?" Zhang Ping heard his tone was wrong and replied stiffly.

"If you have nothing to do, visit less and manage the children well," the man ordered.

He knew Zhang Ping went to the Gu family. He had no good feelings for Gu Chenghuai and Lin Zhao; he felt that the two made him lose all face.

"I want to go if I want to," Zhang Ping said unhappily, "I am your wife, not your prisoner; you manage me."

After speaking, she walked to the kitchen.

The man frowned, his tone full of displeasure, "Driving Sister Bai out of the family compound, you are very proud, right? Satisfied, right? Zhang Ping, why didn't I find you so petty before? She is a woman, helpless, and has two daughters. What's wrong with me helping her! You are so petty! If something happens to them, you are the culprit, you know! You are all women, why are you not gentle and understanding at all..."

Zhang Ping's eyes lost temperature and she retorted: "I am petty, I am not gentle and understanding. If you want to find someone broad-minded, go find her! You idiot!" ===== CHAPTER 306 =====
