Chapter 188 Don't Blame Me for Being Impolite
Guo Caifeng nearly vomited blood upon seeing this scene.
"At my age, she not only doesn't give in to me, but she also sat on me and hit me. How can I put my old face here?"
She turned to Qi Yunsheng, "Boss! Boss, you have to stand up for me!"
Before Qi Yunsheng could speak, Qiao An stepped forward.
"Who told you to drink an enema first thing in the morning and spew nonsense!"
"So what if you're so old? Does being old mean you can do whatever you want? Does being older mean everyone younger than you has to give way to you and respect you?"
"Following your suggestion, tomorrow I'll buy a hundred-year-old turtle, and you'll kneel on the ground and kowtow to it every day, calling it your ancestor!"
Li Shaoyun and the others couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Qi Yunsheng covered his mouth with his fist and coughed awkwardly a few times.
Unexpectedly, Huo Jiyun's wife is not only a skilled fighter, but also so adept at cursing.
"Commander Qi," Zeng Fushun looked at him for help.
Guo Caifeng's actions were a bit excessive, but she is, after all, his own mother, and he couldn't just watch her be bullied like that.
"Since everyone is here today, I'll say something to prevent this from happening again in the future."
Qi Yunsheng glanced down at Guo Caifeng, a hint of disdain flashing in his eyes.
"The car that Qiao An brought from Zhongchuan Province was personally brought by her. We have verified its specific origin; it was a reward from the Zhongchuan Provincial Party Committee to Comrade Qiao An."
"As for things like bicycles and sewing machines, Comrade Qiao An has contracted a canteen stall at the Jinshui Town Machine Tool Factory, so she has a clear source of income. She also enjoys special allowances from Zhongchuan Province. We have verified all of this."
"I can tell you definitively that Joan's assets and income were reported to the organization on the second day after he arrived in Amtu, and there are absolutely no problems with them."
Upon hearing this, Zeng Fushun's heart sank.
If Qiao An and the others couldn't explain these things clearly, he could still say a few words on behalf of Guo Caifeng. But now, things have gotten even worse.
Li Shaoyun and Wang Baohua were well aware of Qiao An's abilities.
Unaware of what was happening, everyone looked at Qiao An in disbelief upon hearing Qi Yunsheng's words.
She's so amazing.
Guo Caifeng was a little confused, but at least she understood what she was hearing.
"No...that's impossible! What kind of merit could a mere woman like her possibly achieve? What kind of money could she possibly earn?"
"It's definitely...it's definitely because the man isn't home, and she's taking advantage of her good looks..."
"Mom! Stop talking!" Zeng Fushun shouted sternly.
If she continued, Huo Jiyun could kill her.
"Guo Caifeng, you are truly wicked to the core! Do you know that if you said these words a few years ago, they could have killed someone!" Li Shaoyun spoke breathlessly, clearly furious.
Guo Caifeng wanted to say something, but when she turned her head and saw her son's gloomy eyes, she shut her mouth.
"If she could understand human speech, we wouldn't have needed to ask Brigade Commander Qi to come out of retirement," Qiao An scoffed.
"Brigade Commander Qi, I'm so sorry. The troops are so busy, and I really feel bad for troubling you to come all this way for something like this."
Qi Yunsheng never expected that Qiao An, who had only been there for a few days, would become the target of envy and jealousy over money.
Things are different now than before; back then, whoever was poor was always right.
Now everyone earns money based on their own abilities, and Joan is an amazing woman.
Huo Jiyun raised his eyes, his gaze as cold as ice, an invisible pressure spreading out.
Zeng Fushun was a little scared.
"I'm warning you, Qiao An is my wife. Anyone who dares to hurt her is going against me, Huo Jiyun."
"Even if they are comrades-in-arms of many years, don't blame me for being ruthless."
These words were said to Zeng Fushun.
Qi Yunsheng quickly stepped between the two, separating their gazes.
"Zeng Fushun, I'm giving you half a day off. Clean up this mess at home. If it happens again, you know exactly what to do."
"Our military compound cannot tolerate such a treacherous person."
"Yes, Commander!"
Zeng Fushun quickly saluted.
"Brigade Commander, I also need to ask for leave," Huo Jiyun said calmly.
"My wife is frightened, I need to go with her to the hospital."
She beat someone up like this? And she was even frightened?
On second thought, since Qiao An is pregnant, it would be good for her to get checked.
Qi Yunsheng rolled his eyes at Huo Jiyun, annoyed. "Fine."
As the crowd dispersed, Huo Jiyun helped Qiao An walk home.
"I'm really fine," Joan whispered.
"I still need to go and check it out; I'm worried."
Huo Jiyun looked down and saw Qiao An's swollen feet, and his voice changed as he spoke.
"An'an, I just heard at the army base that you got into a fight with someone, it almost scared me to death."
Even though he knew that Joan was a skilled fighter and could kill a wild boar single-handedly.
But she's pregnant now, and he knows that a pregnant woman's health deteriorates.
So on the way to the family compound, I even considered the worst possible outcome.
It felt like a giant hand was gripping his heart tightly, squeezing it painfully.
Even on the battlefield, facing the dark muzzle of a gun, he had never felt such fear and terror.
He just thought that he would kill anyone who dared to hurt Qiao An.
Regardless of who the other party is, and regardless of the consequences.
Joan gently scratched his palm with her fingers.
He held her soft little hand tightly.
"I hit Zeng Fushun's mother, won't you be in trouble?"
"Tch!" Huo Jiyun sneered. "In the Northwest, no one dares to cause me trouble."
He paused, then added, "Except for the Commander."
"If this happens again, feel free to hit me, I'll be there to support you."
Just as Huo Jiyun and Qiao An got into the car, Li Shaoyun ran up from behind.
"Go to the city center hospital, I know the best OB-GYN."
"Thank you, sister-in-law." Huo Jiyun got out of the car and opened the door for her.
On the other side, Zeng Fushun walked ahead.
Guo Caifeng and Xia Xiaoyun followed behind.
"Son, they just think I'm an easy target because I'm a village woman. If this were in Sanghezhuang, who would dare to touch me?" Guo Caifeng said indignantly, limping along.
She didn't notice how dark Zeng Fushun's face was at that moment.
Zeng Fushun suddenly stopped. "Qiao An is also from the countryside, so why doesn't anyone bully her?"
"Mom, you came here to take care of Xiaoyun and help her during her postpartum period. And what have you done? You're always causing trouble for me. Don't you think I'm troublesome enough already?"
"How did I cause trouble?"
Guo Caifeng wouldn't dare to act recklessly with her superiors, but wouldn't she dare to yell at her son?
"When someone bullies me, you not only don't side with your own mother, but you turn around and criticize me? What's the point of raising you? What good are you?"
Zeng Fushun didn't argue with her, but just looked at her calmly. "Mom, if you want me to be forced to leave the army, then keep making a scene. In the end, our whole family will go back to Sanghezhuang and go farming. Then you'll be happy."
Guo Caifeng's face turned pale instantly.
She didn't intend to go back after coming here; life in the village was too hard.
Besides, when she arrived, she showed off in the village every day, and everyone knew that she had gone to enjoy a life of luxury with her son.
If she goes back looking utterly humiliated, the whole village will laugh at her.
No, absolutely no going back!
"Son! Son, it's all my fault. I've caused you so much trouble. How about I talk to your boss and tell him this has nothing to do with you... I'll go right now!"
Zeng Fushun felt like his head was about to explode. Other military families were understanding and reasonable, so why was his own mother so unacceptable?
"Mom, just come home quietly and don't do anything. That would be a huge help to me!"
Guo Caifeng looked sullen and stopped talking.
"Xiaoyun, why didn't you stop your mother just now, letting her cause such a big disaster?" Zeng Fushun said with dissatisfaction.
