"Why would Tunan fall in love with a country girl? That's right, his elders must have forced him to do that."

Yan Moli's delicate eyebrows were wrinkled into a ball, her face full of unwillingness and indignation.

"Xinyi, we are all from Hai City. Tell me, was Tunan forced into this? If so, let's go find the brigade commander to make the decision for Tunan. We are women in the new society, and we must resolutely fight against arranged marriages."

Wang Xinyi's temper was not very good usually, and now it was her menstrual period, so she was in a hurry to go back and wash. Listening to Yan Moli's delicate voice, she felt sick and said angrily: "Who are you to Captain Sheng? You keep calling me Tu Nan. Aren't you ashamed?"

Yan Moli blushed and stammered in retort: ​​"Captain Sheng and I are comrades, and it's not wrong for comrades to call each other intimately."

"Humph," Wang Xinyi rolled her eyes, "You know you're just gay, but Captain Sheng is already married, got a marriage certificate, and had a wedding banquet. And his wife, Comrade Zhan Xinyue, is a hundred times prettier than you, knows medicine, and speaks well. Not to mention Captain Sheng, even I, a woman, like people like Xinyue."

"Captain Sheng did it willingly. Don't try to destroy their relationship. Otherwise, I will teach you a lesson."

Wang Xinyi pointed at Yan Moli, ignoring her increasingly embarrassed expression, glared at her warningly, and ran back to the dormitory.

The two of them were neighbors and joined the army in the same year. Yan Moli joined the art troupe, while Wang Xinyi became a soldier through hard training and competitions and successfully joined the special operations platoon.

When Wang Xinyi was selected for the special operations platoon, she was very excited and went to find Yan Moli to share her experience. At the time, Yan Moli, not sure if she was jealous or something else, not only did she not congratulate her, but she also mocked her for just liking to hang out with men. What's even worse, she actually wrote back to say that she trained every day, struggling with the male soldiers, and even fighting with them.

Yan Moli's parents took the letter and spread the news throughout the brigade, saying that their daughter Yan Moli was beautiful and sensible, and that she always hung out with female soldiers in the army art troupe and basically had no contact with male soldiers.

It is said that Wang Xinyi is a big and strong man. He couldn't find a partner in the brigade before, so he ran around the army and hung out with men, hugging them all day long.

Gradually, rumors spread throughout the team, becoming more and more outrageous. It was even said that Wang Xinyi slept in the same bed with different men at night.

No matter which era, the cost of making Huang Yao is the lowest, but the harm to women is the greatest.

What people say is scary. Wang Xinyi's parents were so angry that they wrote a letter overnight, asking her to apply for discharge from the army. They scolded her for being unfilial and unreserved, and even used feudal words like "unfaithful to one's husband". They even threatened that if Wang Xinyi did not return home, they would come to the army to make trouble.

Later, Li Hu, the platoon leader of the special operations platoon, saw that Wang Xinyi was distracted during training. He asked the reason and called the local commune leaders to ask them to do the work.

The commune leaders presented a plaque of honor with great fanfare, held a meeting for all the villagers, and verbally educated Yan Moli's parents who had spread the rumor, telling them that it was a very honorable thing for a female soldier to join the special operations platoon. This finally shut the villagers up.

But Wang Xinyi's parents still asked her to retire from the army as soon as possible from time to time, and often asked people to find a partner for her.

From this point on, Wang Xinyi became estranged from Yan Moli. Now, seeing that she called Captain Sheng "Tu Nan" affectionately even though she knew that he was married, he got angry.

If Yan Moli dared to dance in front of Zhan Xinyue, she would definitely take action.

Zhan Xinyue didn't know that her man was being targeted. At this moment, she was sitting with Sheng Tunan, Brigade Commander Li, and the Chief of Staff and his wife, waiting for the food to be served.

The brigade commander knew that the soldiers would feel uncomfortable eating at the same table with them, so he set up two tables.

The chief of staff's wife is a typical rural woman with short hair, a big round face, and rosy but not white skin. At first glance, she is a female comrade who works regularly and has plenty of energy and blood.

"You must be Director Sheng's wife, right? Oh, you are so pretty, prettier than the prettiest girl in the art troupe."

Xu Jinling held Zhan Xinyue's hand and smiled warmly. She was in her forties and her two sons were serving in the army, but in other military regions.

"Captain Sheng, you are so lucky to have such a beautiful girl married to you. You must treat her well in the future, otherwise your aunt will not forgive you."

"Okay, please keep an eye on me, Aunt Xu." Sheng Tunan smiled. He would definitely spoil the wife he had finally gotten.

Brigade Commander Li specially invited Xu Jinling to accompany the party. He was worried that Zhan Xinyue would be restrained upon arrival, and the men at the table were worried that she would be embarrassed. The chief of staff's wife was cheerful, and with her around, the atmosphere would definitely not be dull.

Of course, Commander Li’s wife also came and was busy in the kitchen.

"Old Li, please make way. I'm going to serve the dishes." Dongfang Xiaoqing came out from the kitchen wearing an apron, carrying a large plate of chopped pepper fish head. Behind her were several chefs carrying other dishes.

"Okay." Li Xiangqiang stood up, raised his hand to take the plate, helped put it on the table, and introduced it.

"Comrade Zhan, this is my wife. You can just call her Aunt Xiaoqing. She heard that you are also from Hunan Province, so she specially prepared two Hunan dishes."

"Thank you, Aunt Xiaoqing," Zhan Xinyue stood up and thanked her politely.

"No thanks," Dongfang Xiaoqing walked to Zhan Xinyue, gently pressed her shoulder, and motioned her to sit down, "This is what I should do. Try it, do you like it?"

At this time, the chefs had already brought other dishes to the table. Except for the fried bacon with garlic sprouts and braised native chicken made by Dongfang Xiaoqing, the others were lighter dishes made by the chefs, including eight-treasure duck, crystal shrimp, steamed turbot, fried rice cake with crab roe, stir-fried clams with green onions, crab roe grouper soup, and braised abalone. It can be said to be very rich.

Of course, the troops are right on the seaside, and the seafood is not expensive when bought from fishermen.

More importantly, the sea water was not polluted in the 70s, so people could eat seafood safely without having to worry about getting strange diseases from radiation.

The dishes on Li Hu's table had been served. Except for the three dishes made by Dongfang Xiaoqing herself, all the other dishes were there. Of course, they had big appetites, so the chef made two extra bowls of braised pork.

Wang Xinyi arrived just in time, and Li was about to stand up and toast everyone. Dongfang Xiaoqing moved first. Seeing that Zhan Xinyue hadn't moved her chopsticks, she used a small bowl to pick up a large chicken leg and the crescent-shaped meat on the fish head and placed it in front of Zhan Xinyue's table, with an expectant tone,

"Xinyue, please try the food I cooked and see if it's delicious. If there's anything that's not to your taste, I'll make some changes."
