Zhou Chuan looked in the direction of the sound and saw a slightly older woman walking towards them. The people seemed to be afraid of her. When they saw her coming, most of them obediently went home. Only a few of them lingered slowly, like snails, hesitating left and right, seemingly about to leave but not quite.
The eldest sister was equally decisive with the few who were left. She walked over and gave them a good scolding: "Everyone else has left, what are you all dawdling around for? If you keep disobeying the rules like this, I think you shouldn't stay in the family compound anymore, you might as well go back to your hometown and farm!"
When those guys heard they were going back to their hometown, how could they agree? Life in the countryside was so hard, nothing compared to the easy and carefree life here. So in the blink of an eye, they scattered like birds and beasts, running faster than anyone else!
The eldest sister looked around again and found that no one was watching. Then she turned her attention to Zhou Chuan. She had already heard about Zhou Chuan's situation. Although the military family compound was divided into two parts, it did not prevent the two sides from exchanging information. In particular, the family compounds at the battalion and company levels were like a big funnel, where nothing could be hidden. With Zhou Chuan's situation causing such a stir, it would be hard for her not to know.
She just listened and didn't take it to heart at all, because there were too many similar incidents in the military region. At first, she would try to get involved, but as the trouble escalated, she lost the will and energy to deal with it.
Not to mention some of the women are not very bright. She had just helped her fight for her best interests, but as soon as the man coaxed her, she immediately changed her attitude, which made her very embarrassed. Once or twice, she could tolerate it, but after it happened many times, she became disheartened and vowed never to meddle in other people's business again!
She came over because her neighbor told her that this Comrade Zhou was very different. He had not only supported the front line and donated herbs to the troops, but also treated the wounded. She was told to come and see him as soon as possible and help him if she could.
Zhou Chuan also noticed the older woman, but she didn't have any particular thoughts about her. Whether the woman was good or bad, she had said what she needed to say, and she didn't need anyone to persuade her. So she prepared to leave this place, as she still had a long way to go.
When Political Commissar Ma saw the eldest sister approaching, he was overjoyed, as if he had seen a savior. He was about to wave to her when he noticed Zhou Chuan was about to leave. He instinctively tried to stop him, but mindful of the difference between men and women, he simply reached out to block Zhou's path: "Comrade Zhou Chuan, are you... are you leaving?"
Zhou Chuan didn't want to deal with the people here anymore. Seeing that his way was blocked, he silently walked around Commissar Ma and continued walking towards the family compound.
Political Commissar Ma was sweating profusely when he saw that Zhou Chuan was ignoring him and was determined to leave. If he let her go, with her big mouth, she would make their troops sound like the Kuomintang.
Political Commissar Ma was so anxious he was pacing back and forth. He walked over to Xiao Beichen and kept giving him meaningful glances. When Xiao Beichen still didn't react, he pulled him by the hand and said, "Hurry up and apologize to him!"
Honestly, I told you not to argue with a woman, but she stubbornly insisted on arguing with her. Now look what happened, she's been called a coward, and they can't even utter a word in rebuttal.
How could Xiao Beichen not see his comrade's signal? He was just too ashamed to speak... he couldn't bring himself to say it!
The older woman quickly walked over and grabbed Xiao Yuan's arm: "Comrade, wait a minute, comrade..."
Seeing that Xiao Beichen was of no use, and with the older woman having just arrived, Political Commissar Ma glared at his comrade before walking over to Zhou Chuan and kindly introducing her: "Comrade Zhou Chuan, this is our Division Commander Yang's wife, Sister Tian, sister-in-law, and this is..."
Sister Tian waved her hand dismissively at Political Commissar Ma: "Alright, alright, I can ask myself, I don't need you!" She glanced indifferently at Xiao Beichen not far away, then took Zhou Chuan's hand: "Sigh, I'm sorry to have wronged Comrade Zhou!"
Upon approaching, Sister Tian saw Zhou Chuan's face clearly and felt a pang of regret. She knew Sun Jun, who was only in his early thirties. Presumably, his childhood sweetheart should be quite young. But looking at Comrade Zhou's face, he looked older than her. Alas, what a pity!
Zhou Chuan withdrew his hand: "Ma'am, I have to get going, sorry!" He then took half a step back and turned to leave.
Zhou Chuan has no desire to play mind games with the people here anymore. She's just an ordinary citizen; she can't afford to play those games!
Sister Tian looked a little uncomfortable, but she understood. Some things are so painful that you don't know how painful they are until they happen to you. Looking at her back, she thought to herself that she must help this poor woman.
She caught up with Zhou Chuan in small steps, then forcefully pulled him away, saying, "Comrade Zhou Chuan, I know you're angry with us right now and can't wait to leave this wretched place, but if you just leave like this, wouldn't that be too easy on us?"
Zhou Chuan laughed, "Oh my, your unit is really getting more and more creative!" One played the good cop, the other the bad cop; did they really think she was some country bumpkin trying to fool her? She quickly stopped smiling and stared intently at the older woman in front of her.
"However, I will never trust you again. You've been right about one thing: I don't want to stay in this awful place for another second. I wish I could sprout wings and fly away right now!"
She sniffed the air: "Can you smell it? It's rotten inside, moldy and infested with maggots..." Zhou Chuan looked around, waved his nose, and then pried open Zhou's sister's hand.
"I'm not staying. I'll let you have your way, and I'll only suffer this once. But next time you're at war, I won't be foolish enough to sew shoe soles or gather herbs for you again!"
