Chapter 93

Lu Ye went upstairs quietly and served Ruan Qiqi after she finished her meal. When it was time for lunch, he took the initiative to ask Ruan Qiqi for her changed clothes. He didn’t take her underwear, but only her coat. Lu Ye went to Shang Lehua’s house, where a family of four was having dinner. Her husband’s surname was Zhou and he had a bad temper.

“Deputy Battalion Commander Lu, would you like to eat together?”

Captain Zhou saw him and warmly invited him to eat together.

“I’ve eaten. Come to your house to wash some clothes. My cousin just changed them, so I have to wash them for her!”

Lu Ye put the washbasin on the ground, hooked the small stool of the child next to him with his foot and sat down, rubbing the washbasin regardless of the life and death of others.

The child who had no stool pouted and looked very aggrieved.

Shang Lehua’s face froze, and he had a bad premonition in his heart. Could it be that this lunatic heard what he said about Ruan Qiqi today?

“Deputy Battalion Commander Lu, what do you mean?”

The smile on Captain Zhou’s face became forced, and he didn’t dare to get angry, after all, he was of a low rank.

He couldn’t figure out when he had offended this lunatic?

“Washing clothes, didn’t you see?”

Lu Ye raised his head and rolled his eyes, continuing to scrub the clothes. More and more white soap bubbles accumulated on his hands, forming a white flower.

“Why don’t you wash your clothes at home, and come to my house to wash them? (What does “what” mean here?)”

Captain Zhou is a native of Hunan Province, with a strong accent. He gritted his teeth and tried to suppress his anger.

“How can I set an example for you if you can’t see me washing my own clothes? Of course I have to go to your house to wash them, Captain Zhou, you should study hard, even while eating!”

Lu Ye grinned with his teeth bared, no longer paying attention to the couple, and rubbed the clothes happily.

“What’s the point of me learning to wash clothes? Deputy Battalion Commander Lu, although you are in a higher position than me, you can’t bully others by taking advantage of your position. Now please leave my house immediately!”

Captain Zhou took a deep breath and secretly warned himself not to take action.

Because he couldn’t beat this crazy man, and the end of taking action would definitely be a fool.

But he was really angry, why did he bully others like this?

Captain Zhou, who was about to explode with anger, did not notice that his wife’s face was pale and something was wrong.

“Deputy Battalion Commander Lu, go to the washroom to wash your clothes. It’s not right to go to Captain Zhou’s house to wash them!”

“Yes, Captain Zhou’s family is still eating. How can they eat if you do this?”

There were many people crowded at the door, all on the same floor. They tried to persuade him in a gentle manner, but did not dare to speak too harshly, for fear of angering this madman. Even if they all came together, they would not be able to win.

Lu Ye rubbed his hands vigorously for a few times, shook off the foam on his hands, wiped them on the small floral apron on his body, stood up, and looked at Captain Zhou, whose face was ashen.

He said, “Your cousin envies my cousin because my cousin sleeps until noon every day and I wash his clothes. Your cousin said that you are too lazy to grow hair at home. You don’t even help the soy sauce bottle when it falls over. Except for being diligent in bed, you are like a piece of wood at other times and can’t even move it. Since your cousin is so resentful, I will show my comradeship and go to your house to demonstrate how to help your cousin wash clothes. Captain Zhou, have you learned it?”

“I’m not envious, Lao Zhou, I didn’t say those words!”

Shang Lehua shouted anxiously, her pretty face was covered with sweat, she was scared.

She knew her husband’s temper too well. If she lost face in front of so many people, he would definitely teach her a lesson, and even hit her. It would hurt.

“I heard it with my own ears, at 10:11 in the morning, downstairs, you and Ji Xianglian, Wang Cuihua, and Liu Sanmei said it together, you all said that your men were too lazy to grow hair, and you asked them to learn from me, I will go to other people’s houses to demonstrate later, today I will demonstrate washing clothes, tomorrow I will demonstrate emptying the urinal, and the day after tomorrow I will demonstrate emptying the foot washing water, one by one, I have plenty of time, don’t worry!”

Lu Ye was very stable, with a smile on his face, and called out the names one by one.

They were all those who said bad things about his Qiqi today, and he didn’t let any of them go.

The faces of the women whose names were called turned ashen in an instant, and they were angry and scared. They

were angry that Lu Ye, a grown man, had a smaller mind than women, and he was so insidious to settle the score after the event.

They were even more afraid that Lu Ye would go crazy and anger his husband, and they would have a hard time at home.

“Deputy Battalion Commander Lu, I didn’t say these words. I just said that men work very hard outside, and we women should share more at home. Is what I said wrong?”

Ji Xianglian was also on this floor. As the best military wife, she would never allow anyone to damage her reputation.

So, she bravely argued with Lu Ye!

“Sister-in-law Ji is right. It is the rule that men are responsible for the outside and women are responsible for the inside. How can a man wash clothes for the guests? It’s a mess!” “

That’s right, there is no such rule. I support Sister-in-law Ji!”

The men were all talking. They all praised Ji Xianglian and felt that Lu Ye was too embarrassing for them.

Washing clothes for the guests, emptying the urine pot, and holding the foot washing water, look at the flower apron tied on the body of Deputy Battalion Commander Lu, just like a woman, it is simply embarrassing for men, so useless!

The other women who were named also spoke out to support Ji Xianglian. They have always followed Ji Xianglian’s lead.

Lu Ye sneered and said sarcastically, “Who said that men can’t do housework when they are in charge of the outside? People who say this are lazy. Your laziness is your business. My work for my cousin is my business. What’s your business? You are so idle. Why don’t you go to open up wasteland and dig earth? There are so many wastelands in the military farm that no one has dug. I will introduce you to them?”

When he said these words, his eyes were coldly staring at Ji Xianglian and the other gossipers.

“Ji Xianglian, do you really think you are a big shot just because others flatter you a few times? You work like a cow and a horse all day long, and you are still proud? You deserve to be an old lady before you are thirty. In a few years, when Captain Xu stands next to you, he will have to call you mom. Unlike my cousin, I take good care of him. Even if he is eighty, he is still a flower. You are so jealous!”

Lu Ye had an epileptic seizure and didn’t let any of these women go.

“Shang Lehua, if you dislike your man for being lazy and useless, why don’t you just tell him directly? Why are you using my Qiqi as an excuse? Captain Zhou, you have to look for the reasons in yourself. Why are your guests talking about you outside?”

He attacked everyone equally, including the men who spoke for Ji Xianglian. His scolding was particularly harsh.

Ji Xianglian’s face turned green. All she had heard were praises and compliments. No one had ever said that to her. She was the most outstanding and capable military wife. This Lu Ye was too arrogant!

Shang Lehua regretted it now. She shouldn’t have said those things outside because she was jealous of Ruan Qiqi.

That’s right, she was jealous because her man had never washed her clothes. Even when they were newly married, Captain Zhou had never been so considerate.

“I’ll show you how to empty the urinal tomorrow!”

Lu Ye picked up the basin and strode away, leaving behind a group of angry people.

“Pa”

a crisp slap sounded, and half of Shang Lehua’s face was swollen, beaten by her man.

Shang Lehua covered her face and cried.

No one else tried to persuade her, even Ji Xianglian, who had the best relationship with her, left.

The people in front of the Zhou family dispersed, and there were curses and cries from other families. Obviously, the women named by Lu Ye were all taught a lesson by the men in their families.

Except for Ji Xianglian.

Because her husband was not at home, he went out to do business.

Lu Ye went to the bathroom to wash the clothes, hung them neatly on the balcony, and went home humming a song.
