Military Marriage in the ’70s: The Aloof Officer’s Sweetheart Chapter 19

Chapter 19

Just as Jiang Yule was arguing with her, no one noticed that a little girl in the crowd ran out.

“Come here. Just because of what you said today, I have to take you to the Public Security Bureau to have a talk. The captain has worked diligently for the people all his life. I am a newly arrived female educated youth. I just gave some homemade cakes to my neighbors out of courtesy, and you made up this story. Come here. I have to tell you who is right and who is wrong today.”

Li Wanguo, a male educated youth, has a crush on Nie Xiangdie. He wanted to protect Nie Xiangdie and say that she didn’t mean that. But the more he listened to Jiang Yule, the more he felt something was wrong.

The captain also told the villagers about the purchase of the yard. The girl had sold her house in the city and was planning to settle down here. Moreover, the money she paid for the yard was real money, and it was not a small amount. It was legal and reasonable.

As for sending some homemade cakes to neighbors, that is reasonable and there is nothing to say.

But Nie Xiangdie made it sound so ambiguous, as if the captain had accepted Jiang Yule’s favor and helped her. As for the comings and goings, didn’t it mean that the captain and Jiang Yule had an affair? This was even worse.

For a moment, Li Wanguo couldn’t even say a word to defend her. When Nie Xiangdie looked at him for help, he could only lower his head helplessly…

Was Nie Xiangdie really so innocent that she said the wrong thing? Li Wanguo was really unsure…

Seeing Li Wanguo’s evasion, Nie Xiangdie frowned slightly, thinking viciously in her heart

“This Li Wanguo is really useless. He is always courteous, but can’t do anything when it comes to serious matters. And this Jiang Yule! Why is he so unreasonable?”

Li Wanguo didn’t work, so Nie Xiangdie had to think about how to get out of this situation. The next moment, Nie Xiangdie said aggrievedly, “Comrade Jiang really misunderstood me. I didn’t mean that. I just heard from the villagers that you sent a lot of things to the captain’s family, so I… I’m sorry, I was prejudiced!”

“Ha! Don’t be sorry. It was the villagers who said it. Tell us who it was in the village. Let’s call him and go to the Public Security Bureau to have a talk…”

“What are you educated youth doing making so much noise so early in the morning?” The captain’s voice suddenly came. Without waiting for anyone to speak, Meng Wanshu immediately raised her hand and pointed at Nie Xiangdie, saying, “Captain, Nie Xiangdie said that you accepted bribes and that we had an unclear relationship with you… We are not convinced that she slandered you who worked diligently and wholeheartedly for the team, so we started arguing. We are worried that as a party involved, your judgment on this matter will inevitably be accused of being unfair. We are planning to go to the Public Security Bureau.”

Villager: Yes, the captain is indeed very diligent for the team.

Educated Youth: What did you start with? How did it get to the point of bribery and relationships?

Captain: This, this, this…Should I get angry first? Or should I get proud first?

No! The Public Security Bureau! Why are we going to the Public Security Bureau again?

The captain tried to come back to his senses from the words “working diligently” and glanced at the educated youth in front of him. Especially when he saw Jiang Yule, the captain’s brows couldn’t help but frowned even more.

It is hard to say whether he will favor Jiang Yule. It is certain that Nie Xiangdie will not be able to get out easily after being sent to the Public Security Bureau.

More importantly! If one more person from their team is admitted, they will have no chance of becoming an advanced player this year!!!

“You, tell me what just happened.” The captain pointed at Raven and asked him to explain the matter clearly.

Lei Wendong looked around and had no choice but to repeat what had just happened.

Upon hearing this, the captain sighed deeply. Comrade Jiang was really exaggerating. But to be honest, he was right. There were indeed a lot of rumors in the village these days. If Jiang Yule didn’t suppress these things at once, who knows how they would spread in the future.

“Nie Zhiqing, tell me, what are you going to do about this?” The captain’s words were considered to be on Jiang Yule’s side.

Nie Xiangdie looked at Jiang Yule with indignation in her eyes. She could not admit this, so she still said with the look of being bullied.

“Jiang Zhiqing, I have already apologized to you. I misunderstood.”

“I’ve also told you, where did you hear that gossip from? Let’s find that person, so that you don’t have to look so aggrieved, as if I bullied you.” Jiang Yule didn’t fall for Nie Xiangdie’s tricks. It was disgusting enough that she was the one who started it, but in the end it seemed like it was someone else’s fault.

In her previous life, she had met this kind of people at work many times. It was clearly her own mistake at work, but she put on a pitiful look, neither saying anything nor admitting her mistake, causing everyone to clean up the mess for her. It’s all work, and she deserves to be tolerated for those losers?

Jiang Yule is not used to it.

“Comrade Jiang!” Nie Xiangdie looked furious and tearful, and was about to burst into tears. The captain was annoyed by the crying of these little girls, and did not want to delay work, so he said, “Nie Zhiqing, this time, you were the one who spoke carelessly first. You will not get away with it even if you go to the Public Security Bureau. As the captain, I will not bother with you for your slander against me because it is the first time, but Jiang Zhiqing…”

The team leader paused for a moment, as if thinking about how to deal with this matter more appropriately. He frowned and thought for a long time before continuing, “I’ll fine you 10 work points and give them to Jiang Zhiqing. What do you think?”

Nie Xiangdie: How does she feel? How can she feel? She is extremely reluctant!

No matter how reluctant she was, the captain had already expressed his opinion. The surrounding villagers had more or less talked about Jiang Yule’s visit to the captain’s house. They were afraid that they would be dragged out and taken to the police station. Now they all looked at her as if she had done something wrong. They were afraid that she would be lucky if she didn’t turn against them after she went to the police station.

What else could she do in this situation? She could only swallow her anger. Her eyes flashed with malice, and she nodded reluctantly.

“We’ll have plenty of time to settle these accounts later!”

“Nie Zhiqing, if you have such good things in the future, remember to come to me again.” Jiang Yule did nothing and got full work points for the day. He was in a good mood. Before going to work, he did not forget to tease Nie Xiangdie.

Tang Wei felt very happy when she saw Nie Xiangdie being humiliated. She secretly gave Jiang Yule a thumbs up. Jiang Yule was exactly what she wanted!

Nie Shuhui, who was standing by, wanted to laugh when she saw Nie Xiangdie suffering a loss, but she felt uncomfortable no matter how she thought about it. If Nie Xiangdie was bullied, didn’t that mean her own people were being bullied?

But seeing the captain’s gloomy face, Nie Shuhui didn’t dare to say a word. She glared at Jiang Yule fiercely and went to get the tools.

“Okay, okay, there are six educated youths coming this time. I picked six advanced households in the village and asked them to teach you how to do farm work. You can divide the money among yourselves.” The team leader waved his hand and they left. He was really annoyed to stay here, especially that educated youth Jiang. He didn’t even want to see him.

After the incident was settled, a man at the end of the crowd rubbed the little girl’s head and turned away.

Xiao Ai just ran home in a hurry and said that Sister Yule had quarreled with the educated youth. Upon hearing this, Grandma Shen hurriedly asked Mu Chuan to come and see. There was nothing going on here at the moment, so he had to go back and tell the old lady so that she wouldn’t worry at home.

In the crowd, as soon as the team leader left, the uncles and aunts quickly came forward and took the educated youth they liked to the field.

Only Jiang Yule and Meng Wanshu were left there, and they looked like they couldn’t do anything.

There is also Aunt Aiping and Qi Bai’s mother, Aunt Gaixian

Jiang Yule now has lost all his sharp tongue and decisiveness…

Jiang Yule: I don’t want this combination… Uncles and aunts, can we change it…

The uncle and aunt said… No… Taking the educated youth with them also concerns their own work points. Even if the male educated youth are not very ambitious, they are still better than the girls. What’s more, judging from Jiang Yule’s attitude just now that she is ready to go to the Public Security Bureau at any time, who would dare to recruit her!

That is Fang Aiping who is determined to bring Jiang Yule back home.

“Gaixian, let’s do this, you take Wanshu and I’ll take Yule.”

“Okay, then, Wanshu, let’s go. Don’t worry, our two lands are next to each other, and you can still see Yule when you go there.” Aunt Gaixian saw that Meng Wanshu kept looking at Jiang Yule, and thought she was reluctant to leave, so she also reminded her.

In fact, if Auntie Gaixian could hear Meng Wanshu’s inner voice now, she would know that she was not reluctant to part with Jiang Yule at all, but was muttering, ‘Yule, come on, Mu Chuan won’t go to work, and it’s okay for him to go to work, don’t ignore him! Yule, it’s all my fault! I shouldn’t have brought you two together, Yule! My Yule! My hard Yule! ‘

Jiang Yule was indeed having a hard time. Looking at Aunt Aiping who was holding his hand and smiling brightly, Jiang Yule didn’t know what to say.

They were nice to her because they wanted to bring her together with Mu Chuan. Since they couldn’t be together, this kindness was somewhat of a burden to Jiang Yule.

Looking at Meng Wanshu’s almost twitching face, Jiang Yule sighed slightly, resignedly followed and walked forward to the land that belonged to them.

“Today, we are mainly weeding. Just distinguish the seedlings from the weeds and make sure you don’t pull the wrong ones,” Aunt Aiping said patiently, pulling out a bunch of weeds for Jiang Yule to watch.

“Yu Le, just take your time, there’s no rush for this job.”

“Okay, Auntie, I’ll try it myself.” Jiang Yule took a look at the weeds and remembered them in her heart. She studied Chinese medicine and could remember so many herbs, so these weeds were no problem at all.

So I pulled it out neatly.

Apart from the hand being strangled, there are no other difficulties.

Seeing that she had taken action, Aunt Aiping stopped bothering him and started pulling out the weeds in the patch of land next to Jiang Yule.

Jiang Yule was thinking about something, so he just kept pulling while thinking about something. Before he knew it, he had already cleaned up a large area of ​​the land. He shook his arms, which were a little sore, and wanted to get up to drink some water.

After squatting for a long time, she stood up and her eyes went dark. Her body swayed slightly, and she felt someone holding her shoulders with both hands. Jiang Yule thought it was Aunt Aiping, so she didn’t refuse. She sat down on the ground with the help of the other person, lowering her head to relieve the dizziness in her brain.

“Drink some water, relax a bit.” It was still the pleasant voice that made Jiang Yule feel relaxed physically and mentally, but this time it made her frown unconsciously.

“So it wasn’t Aunt Aiping who was supporting her, but Mu Chuan?” He subconsciously took the kettle and drank a sip. His vision gradually became clear, and when he saw that the kettle in his hand was not his, his hand froze slightly.

Whose pot is this? Mu Chuan’s? No way!

The next moment, Mu Chuan’s words completely shattered Jiang Yule’s lucky thoughts.

“It’s clean. I washed it this morning. I haven’t used it yet.”

Jiang Yule: Is this what I mind? What I mind is that this is yours!

Mu Chuan thought Jiang Yule minded this, so he took the initiative to explain that after he went home and told his grandmother, he had no intention of coming to the field, but at home, he felt restless no matter what he did.

Grandma simply kicked him out, saying that her aunt was going to take care of the educated youth today and that the work in the fields might not be finished, so she asked him to come and help.

When he arrived at the field, he saw the little girl, who was very small, working hard with her head covered tightly. He did not disturb her, but said hello to her aunt and started working on the other side.

But now my aunt was ready to go home to cook, and Jiang Yule was still weeding little by little. I don’t know what I was thinking, my eyes were a little empty, and weeding became a mechanical action. In half a morning, I had finished most of the work on one ridge. For a city girl who had never done farm work, this intensity was not small.

Mu Chuan was a little worried, but when he got there and hadn’t had time to say anything, he saw the little girl staggering to her feet, so he hurried forward to help her up.

Jiang Yule ignored Mu Chuan’s comments about whether it was clean or not. He had already drunk it… it was too late to say anything. He returned the kettle to Mu Chuan and looked around. Aunt Aiping was no longer there. Meng Wanshu was squatting in the field next door. She didn’t even bother to pull the grass. She just stared at the two of them.

“Auntie has gone back to cook. You go rest under the tree over there. I’ll take care of the rest.”

“Thank you, but I’ll do the rest by myself. I’ve been squatting for too long, so I just need to take a break,” Jiang Yule said, taking off his hat with one hand to fan himself, and standing up with the other hand, wanting to sit under the big tree for a while.

Mu Chuan saw the girl getting up and subconsciously wanted to help her, but suddenly he remembered something and silently withdrew his hand.

The girl’s face was rosy, her hair was soaked with sweat, and some of it was messy and stuck to her face and neck. She might be feeling uncomfortable. When she stood up, she pouted and held her breath, looking stubborn and proud.

This scene fell into the eyes of Meng Wanshu, who was squatting next door and not working. “Aunt Gaixian, look at these two people, how pleasing to the eye!”

Upon hearing this, Aunt Gaixian looked over there and saw that it was true!

Mu Chuan was tall, kneeling on one knee, making Jiang Yule look even more petite and weak. The man just lowered his head slightly and looked at the little girl drinking water in front of him. He didn’t need to say anything, but it seemed to express everything.

But it was this scene that Meng Wanshu couldn’t understand. She was a little tired of squatting, so she simply sat cross-legged on the side and waved to Qi Bai.

Qi Bai was honest. Without waiting for Meng Wanshu to call him again, he stood up quickly and ran over, “Can’t do it anymore?”
