◎ He is really in trouble this time! ◎
When Dong Jiaojiao left Lu Jinzhou’s apartment, she was very happy and elated.
After a good cry, Lu Jinzhou got what she wanted and dispelled his suspicions. How could she not be happy?
Lu Jinzhou was in a worse situation. He has always thought that he is a self-denying, principled and bottom-line person who can maintain a rational and clear mind at all times. But now… everything seems to have changed!
After Dong Jiaojiao left, Lu Jinzhou woke up almost immediately, and then felt annoyed at his unprincipled compromise step by step.
But he was just annoyed, and he didn’t regret it at all.
Lu Jinzhou knew that he was really in trouble this time!
~~~
Northwestern Military Region, Political Commissar Office.
Zhao Shichang was answering the phone with a respectful and serious tone.
“Yes, Chief, I will definitely deal with it seriously…Okay, okay, I will definitely do it, Chief, please rest assured…”
Zhao Shichang hung up the phone, stood there thinking for a long time, and then sighed heavily.
It seemed that he had misunderstood Lu Jinzhou that day. Could it be that he wanted Lu Yao to marry He Chengjun?
Otherwise, why did he find Political Commissar Huang from the Army Headquarters to talk to him?
Although Political Commissar Huang didn’t mention Lu Jinzhou, he didn’t even mention He Chengjun.
But Zhao Shichang has been a political commissar for more than a day or two. Everyone is a good person. As the saying goes, you can know the elegant meaning after hearing the strings. Some words don’t need to be said too straightforwardly.
Zhao Shichang immediately sent someone to find He Chengjun.
Ten minutes later, He Chengjun stood in front of him. Zhao Shichang didn’t say anything. He first picked up the teapot and took a sip of tea. It was so hot that he almost cursed.
“Chengjun, the result of your promotion should be coming soon, right?”
“No matter what the final result is, I must thank the organization and leadership for their cultivation. I will resolutely obey the arrangement.” He Chengjun answered very modestly and cautiously.
Although Lu Yao had clearly told him that it was almost decided that it was him, but he still had to pretend before the final result came out.
After hearing this, Zhao Shichang nodded: “The more you are at this time, the less you can relax. This is the last step. You don’t want to waste all your efforts.”
“Political Commissar, I don’t quite understand what you mean by this.”
“Chengjun, I admire you very much. You have nothing to say about your abilities in all aspects. The organization intends to promote you, but you have not done enough in your personal life. Two days ago, your wife submitted a divorce application to the organization. I asked you for your opinion at that time, and now I ask you one last time, what do you think?”
He Chengjun knew that Zhao Shichang would not put these two things together for no reason.
Moreover, he had made it clear before that he did not agree to divorce.
Now, Zhao Shichang brought up the old matter again, and He Chengjun was not without some political sensitivity and immediately realized that there might be something wrong.
“Political Commissar, do you think I should agree to the divorce?”
He Chengjun didn’t understand. Wouldn’t a stable family be more beneficial to his promotion? This is what Zhao Shichang advised him before.
But now listening to the meaning of the other party’s words, it seems that he wants him to divorce more.
Zhao Shichang put down the teapot and showed He Chengjun the divorce application that Dong Jiaojiao had submitted from the drawer.
“Look at Comrade Dong Jiaojiao’s divorce application, everyone who saw it was very moved. Since your original marriage was just to repay a favor and had no emotional basis, the organization felt that divorce was also possible. Moreover, you can repay a favor even if you get divorced. There are many ways to repay a favor, right?”
He Chengjun read the lines quickly, feeling angry and shocked. Was this written by Dong Jiaojiao? Why doesn’t it feel like it?
The most important thing is that Lu Yao is also mentioned in it.
Before, Dong Jiaojiao could just talk nonsense in the family compound, but now she actually dared to write such things to the army.
Moreover, at the critical moment when he was about to be promoted, he was so angry!
“Political Commissar, please believe that Lu Yao and I really have nothing to do with each other. Dong Jiaojiao is just being petty.”
“Chengjun, everyone can see whether she is being petty or not. Dong Jiaojiao has good reasons for wanting a divorce. The organization feels that the hearts of the martyrs ’ families should not be chilled. What do you think? Besides, you married someone just to repay a favor, and you didn’t consummate the marriage. After the divorce, although it doesn’t sound good, it actually doesn’t affect you. It affects Dong Jiaojiao, and she doesn’t mind anymore. Why do you mind?”
Zhao Shichang also wanted to say, if you are divorced, don’t you just have sex with Lu Yao?
However, considering his status, it was somewhat inappropriate to say such things, so he refrained from saying them.
“Then…don’t others say I’m ungrateful? Dong Jianguo entrusted Dong Jiaojiao to me before he died, and I promised to take care of her forever.”
For some reason, He Chengjun just didn’t want a divorce.
“I’ve said it before, there are many ways to repay kindness. If you feel sorry for yourself, just give more money. Besides, Dong Jiaojiao wants a divorce now, and you are begging for nothing and relying on others. That is the real ungratefulness. In short , Dong Jiaojiao wants a divorce. I’ve said it all, think about it yourself. I just want to remind you, don’t regret your choice. There is no turning back on some things. Go out and come to me after you think about it. My head hurts a little, I need to take a good rest.”
Zhao Shichang was tired and too lazy to talk to the other party.
He Chengjun’s mood was very complicated. On the one hand, he didn’t want to get divorced, and on the other hand, he didn’t want to delay his future.
As the saying goes, a soldier who doesn’t want to be a general is not a good soldier.
He Chengjun has worked very hard in all aspects since he became a soldier. He is capable, ambitious, and ambitious. It is impossible for him to stop here.
Therefore, after hearing Zhao Shichang’s expulsion order, He Chengjun immediately said: “Political Commissar, I have thought clearly and I agree to the divorce. As a soldier, all actions are subject to the organization’s arrangements. Since the organization feels that I should divorce, then I will divorce. Afterwards, I will repay Comrade Dong Jianguo’s life-saving grace in other ways.”
At this moment, He Chengjun did not forget to create a character for himself of repaying kindness.
When Zhao Shichang heard this, he immediately smiled brightly, patted him on the shoulder, and said, “That’s right! Now is a new society. Organizations encourage everyone to fall in love freely, and the concept that a life-saving favor should be given in exchange for one’s life needs to be abandoned.”
With that said, Zhao Shichang immediately signed and sealed Dong Jiaojiao’s divorce application.
Then he asked someone to write a note to He Chengjun, telling him to divorce the marriage in the afternoon.
In order to avoid long nights and many dreams, dragging it back and forth, and causing any mistakes.
He Chengjun took the divorce note and just walked out of the camp when he saw Lu Yao coming to find him.
In the past two days, Lu Yao did not come to deliver meals according to He Chengjun’s request, but in order to keep in touch, she still came to talk to He Chengjun every day.
Who made it that there was no mobile phone at this time, so it was inconvenient to make calls and so on. She could only run here every day.
Fortunately, the art troupe was not far from He Chengjun’s camp, which was convenient.
He Chengjun saw the gentle smile on Lu Yao’s face, and the haze in his heart about being abandoned by Dong Jiaojiao seemed to dissipate a little.
Lu Yao clearly felt that He Chengjun’s attitude towards her today was a bit warmer than before, and she felt very happy.
Thinking that her efforts over the past few days had finally paid off, she knew that He Chengjun could not escape from her.
“Yaoyao, I plan to divorce Dong Jiaojiao. My marriage to her was originally to repay my kindness, but being a military wife is hard work. Not everyone can bear this hardship.”
He Chengjun did not forget to slander Dong Jiaojiao at this time. It can be seen that he is a bit small-minded.
“Really?” Lu Yao almost clapped her hands in surprise.
“Of course it’s true. I’m going to get divorced this afternoon.”
“He Dage, congratulations on finally escaping from the sea of misery. Dong Jiaojiao is not worthy of you at all.”
When He Chengjun returned to the family compound, Dong Jiaojiao was having lunch. Although she was eating alone, she still cooked two dishes and one soup.
Braised pork rib, eggplant with sauce, and a bowl of winter melon and egg soup.
(I went to check out the dishes and I was tempted so I’ll tempt you all too.
Braised Pork Rib.
Eggplant with sauce.
Wintermelon and Egg soup.
)
This is called having meat, vegetables and soup, and life is delicious and joyful.
Seeing He Chengjun suddenly appear at the door, Dong Jiaojiao was stunned for a moment and said coldly: “What are you doing here?”
He Chengjun smelled the delicious food, swallowed his saliva, and replied in the same tone: “Are you not applying to the army for divorce? I agree and will go through the formalities this afternoon. ”
What!” Dong Jiaojiao was shocked.
In his previous life, He Chengjun refused to divorce, but he agreed so easily in this life?
Dong Jiaojiao guessed that Lu Jinzhou was helping behind the scenes, otherwise it would not have been so smooth.
Seeing Dong Jiaojiao being so shocked, He Chengjun sneered. He knew that Dong Jiaojiao was being petty. Now he saw that he agreed to the divorce. Is she panicking? However, it’s too late!
If He Chengjun was a little unhappy before, now seeing Dong Jiaojiao’s attitude, that little bit of unhappiness has long been replaced by pride.
Now, even if Dong Jiaojiao kneels down to beg him, this marriage will be divorced!
He Chengjun came to the table and sat down, looked at the food on the table, and said arrogantly to Dong Jiaojiao: “Since we are about to get divorced, this meal should be treated as a break-up meal.”
Then he continued to sit still and motioned to Dong Jiaojiao. Go and serve him some food.
Dong Jiaojiao rolled her eyes at him, but thinking that she would be out of the sea of misery soon, Dong Jiaojiao held back her temper and went to serve He Chengjun a bowl of rice.
“Eat!” Dong Jiaojiao threw the bowl in front of He Chengjun angrily.
He Chengjun frowned: “Dong Jiaojiao, although we are divorced, as a fellow countryman, I still want to remind you that you really need to change your temper, otherwise you will suffer in the future.”
“He Chengjun, are you going to take it or not? If you don’t want to eat, get out of here. I have a good temper and you can’t bear it.”
“I don’t believe that any man can bear this. Don’t come back to me and cry again!”
“Don’t worry, even if all the men in the world are dead, and I won’t down for you!”
He Chengjun picked up a piece of ribs and put it in his mouth. He wanted to scold Dong Jiaojiao again, but his attention was suddenly diverted by the delicious food in his mouth.
Because it’s so delicious! It was so delicious that he couldn’t stop eating it and had no time to talk.
Seeing that He Chengjun was picking up food faster and faster, Dong Jiaojiao hurriedly joined in the food-grabbing battle.
“He Chengjun, you were reborn as a damn starving ghost. I still want to eat!”
He Chengjun ignored her at all and just lowered his head to eat. He ate up the rice in just a few mouthfuls.
He Chengjun frowned, suspecting that Dong Jiaojiao served him rice in such a small bowl on purpose, just not to make him full.
He is so petty that he cannot be put on the stage at first glance.
He Chengjun later took a large vegetable bowl and ate up the whole pot of rice.
There are no leftover dishes on the table, not even the soup is left out, all are poured into the rice, mixed together and eaten together, it is so delicious!
When Dong Jiaojiao saw this, she didn’t say anything because she was already full.
Thinking that this was the last meal, let him be.
However, He Chengjun had a big appetite. Even if Dong Jiaojiao didn’t compete with him in the end, he still wasn’t full. He was only sixty percent full at most.
He Chengjun suddenly felt that Dong Jiaojiao still had advantages, that is, her cooking was delicious.
After the divorce procedures were completed and he came out of the Civil Affairs Bureau and saw Dong Jiaojiao’s bright smile in the sun, He Chengjun felt that Dong Jiaojiao had another advantage.
That is, she is good-looking, much better-looking than Lu Yao.
However, it is meaningless to say this now.
He Chengjun does not regret the divorce because he still has a bright future.
As for what he said before that he would repay Dong Jianguo’s life-saving grace through other means, he did not break his promise.
The main reason is that he is afraid of being known and said to be ungrateful, which will affect his future progress.
He Chengjun promised to give Dong Jiaojiao two thousand yuan as compensation.
Originally, he wanted to pay it monthly and deduct it from his allowance every month.
But Dong Jiaojiao disagreed. She didn’t want to be involved with He Chengjun for this matter in the future, so she wanted to give it all at once.
He Chengjun had no choice but to agree to return to the army later to borrow it.
Dong Jiaojiao asked him to write an IOU.
