Chapter 34 Why Did Deputy Commander Ji Married a Rural Wife?

Chief Lu especially like Ji Cheng because he felt that he is young and very promising, and he would definitely be able to do great things in the future, so Chief Lu had always wanted Ji Cheng to be his son-in-law.

It just so happen that Lu Huaien also likes Ji Cheng, so he always wanted to match the two of them together.

When Chief Lu heard that he arrived, he put down the brush in his hands and patted him on the shoulder. He saw that Ji Cheng is in a good mood, so he asked him, “Ji Cheng, I haven’t seen you for a while, it seems that you are in a good mood today, training must have gone well. The team that you’re leading must be doing well. I heard from your superior that he is very satisfied with you and talking about you getting promoted soon.”

At this moment, Lu Huaien joined their conversation and said to Chief Lu, “Dad, that’s expected. I have been praising him in front of you, it shows that I really have a good eye for people.”

Chief Lu knew what his daughter is hinting, so he looked at Ji Cheng and asked him, “It just so happen that you are free right now, why don’t come with me and eat at my house? My wife is a good cook, do you want to try her craftsmanship?”

Ji Cheng is not a fool, how can he not hear the underlying meaning of Chief Lu’s words? So he directly refused, “I’m sorry Chief Lu but my wife is cooking for me tonight and I’m going back to the dorm to eat dinner with her.”

Chief Lu’s face immediately darkened when he heard this, he glance at his daughter and asked him with a frown, “Wife? When did you get married? Why haven’t I heard of this? We’re you not single the last time I asked you?”

Ji Cheng replied, “Chief, I was indeed still single when you asked me, but before I went home, my family found a partner for me. I then asked for leave some time ago to go home and get married.”

Lu Huaien reluctantly said, “His wife is from the same village and also from the countryside.”

Ji Cheng smiled, “Yes, we are both from the countryside.”

Lu Huaien was angry when he heard him say it with a smile, her face darkened.

Hearing this, Chief Lu didn’t say anything else and simply said a few more words, then let him leave.

After Ji Cheng left, Chief Lu poked his daughters head with his finger, “You.. you… are you stupid? He is already married and you still like him. Do you want to be a third-party?”

Lu Huaien acted coquettishly with him, “Dad, I just don’t like him, I love him. I have like him since the first time I saw him, and I’ve never like someone before I met him. Aren’t you the Chief? Go and threaten him, if he doesn’t divorce and marry me, you can hold his promotion. He will defintely choose to be with me. Besides, didn’t you say that he is young and very promising? It will be a short matter of time before he get promoted. If he is married to a rural wife, it would hinder his bright future and that kind of rural wife is not worthy to be by his side!”

The last time she heard that Ji Cheng requested for approval of bringing his wife to the army, she went and talk to the person in charge. The person in charge is smart, and rejected Ji Cheng’s application to let his wife join him in the army.

If her father threaten Ji Cheng’s promotion, he will definitely divorce his wife.

Xu Ruan went out to wash their used clothes and do the laundry in the courtyard. When she came out with the washbasin, she greeted the sister’s-in-law but they ignored her.

She greeted a few of them very enthusiastically, but they completely ignored her. When she didn’t hear any response, she was a little bit disappointed.

She squatted to do the laundry and when they saw her new underwear, they asked her, “Xu Ruan, is that a new bra? I saw it when I was in the shopping mall, is that yours? That is really expensive!”

Xu Ruan told the truth, “This is bought by husband.”

The sister-in-law who asked her was jealous when she heard this, and stopped talking to her. Xu Ruan saw her face and the hands washing the clothes paused, she didn’t know what is going on.

When the other sister-in-law’s were washing their clothes, they were whispering and gossiping to each other, which Xu Ruan couldn’t understand. When Xu Ruan finished washing the clothes and was about to dry them, she went back to get some hangers.

She took a rack and come back, only to see that all her clothes were spilled on the ground and were all dirty, specially her new bra, it was covered in mud.

The sister-in-law who asked her about her new bra saw her coming back and said to her, “Deputy Commander wife, I’m sorry. Just now there were few children in the courtyard who were making trouble. They accidentally kicked your basin on the mudpit, so it was all muddy now.”

Xu Ruan was angry when she heard her explanation and could only say that it was fine, she then washed their clothes again.

After she washed her clothes, she was ready to take them back. She didn’t dare to leave them here again. Just when she turned around, the woman started gossiping again.

“Why did Deputy Commander Ji marry such a woman? I think Dr. Lu is very good. She is young and very promising, she is also a college graduate. How good her education is, and also her father is Chief Lu. Even without her father’s high position, she is also very rich, her mother’s family is still in business. If I am with Dr. Lu, I will feel that I will have a bright future and get promoted very quickly. Why did he marry such a rural wife? Isn’t his future ruined? Dr. Lu treats Deputy Commander Ji very well, so she must like him a lot. Since he married a rural wife, if Dr. Lu asks her father to block Deputy Commander Ji’s promotion, his career will be over.”

“It’s all Xu Ruan’s fault, if she didn’t appear, Deputy Commander Ji and Dr. Lu would have been together for a long time. And who in the team is not rooting for them?”
