In the evening, Song Yuzhou returned home.
Jiang Zhiling looked at his solemn expression and asked with concern: "Did something happen in the army?"
Song Yuzhou turned and looked at her. He met her gaze, remained silent for a moment, and then said: "Actually, something unexpected happened during this mission."
So Song Yuzhou simply told her about the ambush.
"Although we finally took advantage of this accident and successfully counterattacked, we cannot ignore the facts behind this incident." Song Yuzhou said solemnly.
Looking at his look, Jiang Zhiling agreed: "Of course this matter must be investigated."
She has always believed that there are no absolutely good people in this world.
Most soldiers are kind-hearted, but some are motivated by profit.
There are also some soldiers whose ideas are simply exploited.
None of these possibilities can be ruled out.
"You said the military commander has started investigating. Is there any progress now?" Jiang Zhiling asked.
Song Yuzhou shook his head: "The commander asked the officers who participated in the discussion before, but no useful clues have been found so far."
Jiang Zhiling was silent. According to the current level of technology and the lack of surveillance, it is not easy to find clues. Whether it is true or not depends entirely on one's mouth and whether there are witnesses.
"Let's eat first and think about it later." Jiang Zhining said softly.
Song Yuzhou hummed and then walked towards the small dining table.
Song Ye had already eaten in advance, so the four of them ate around the dining table with peace of mind.
It was quiet during the meal, no one said a word.
After filling his stomach, Song Chen consciously washed the dishes.
Xixi wanted to help, but was stopped.
"Xixi, you are still young and a girl, so you don't need to wash dishes." Song Chen said matter-of-factly.
Xixi held her little face in her hands and asked curiously: "Why? Xixi saw that in Xiao Huzi's house, the aunt washes dishes."
"I am a man, and a man is stronger than you, a girl. The strong take care of the weak, this is what it should be." Song Chen said seriously.
In his concept, there is order between elder and younger, and as an older brother, he must protect his younger siblings.
Men should take care of and protect women.
Listening to his words, Xixi seemed to understand, and said sweetly: "When my brother gets old, Xixi will take care of him. Xixi is younger than his brother, so he will be younger than his brother when the time comes."
"..." Black lines danced on Song Chen's forehead, and he actually felt that what Xi Xi said was correct.
Jiang Zhiling watched Song Chen and Xi Xi get along with each other, with a smile in her eyes: "If Song Chen doesn't turn into a black man, he should be able to be a warm and tyrannical boss."
"What is that?" Song Yuzhou, who happened to hear this sentence, asked in confusion.
Jiang Zhiling hugged his waist and leaned against him softly: "It's a very powerful existence."
"Oh, I can also become stronger." Song Yuzhou hugged her back, "I will become the full leader in a few days, and my salary will be increased by thirty yuan."
Jiang Zhiling raised her head: "Really? My man is really excellent."
Looking at her shining eyes, Song Yuzhou scratched his head in embarrassment.
"I just don't make as much money as you, but my wife is too capable." Song Yuzhou said proudly.
Jiang Zhiling said with a smile: "I make money and make our family rich. You make military achievements and reach the top of the army. In this way, we all become better versions of ourselves."
Seeing the expectation in her eyes, Song Yuzhou nodded: "Okay!"
Suddenly, Jiang Zhiling had a flash of inspiration: "There is a way."
Song Yuzhou was puzzled.
"I have a way to make the person who leaked the secrets of the army admit it himself." Jiang Zhining's eyes flashed with cunning.
"any solution?"
"We spread the word that a kind of sacred stone will appear. All you need to do is put your hand on the sacred stone..."
So the next day, a magical thing was spread in the villages near the military compound.
Jiang Zhiling was wandering in the courtyard, listening to everyone chatting, and stepped forward: "What are you talking about, sister-in-law?"
"She is the leader's wife. We heard that someone dug up a sacred stone yesterday. There is a kind of magical power on the sacred stone. As long as you put your hand on the sacred stone, you can tell whether what a person says is true or false."
"Is there such a thing?" Jiang Zhiling was surprised.
"No, it's spread all over the world. I heard that the man who dug up the sacred stone was suspected of stealing the neighbor's chicken, but the fairy spirit of the sacred stone proved his innocence. The man was so happy that he took the sacred stone away. Offer it up.”
"I also heard that someone suspected that his daughter-in-law was having an affair with a widower, so he borrowed the sacred stone to verify it, and it turned out that it was true. The man was so angry that he beat his wife, and then she admitted it."
"I also heard..."
"Is this sacred stone really so magical?"
Jiang Zhiling spoke at the right time: "There are all kinds of wonders in the world, and everything has a spirit. I have a college classmate who was not mentally normal for a while. Later, her parents heard that there was a spiritual spring deep in the mountains and forests, and drinking it could drive away evil spirits. "
"What happened next?"
"Then her parents went looking for it and finally found the spiritual spring. My classmate drank the water from the spiritual spring and immediately returned to normal. So maybe this sacred stone really has something magical about it."
Following Jiang Zhiling's words, everyone believed it even more.
After all, this era was still very feudal and superstitious, especially since most soldiers and military wives came from rural areas, and they believed it deeply.
Seeing this, Jiang Zhining's eyes flashed with a smile.
In just two days, the story of the sacred stone had spread, and it was even said to be more magical. Many people believed that it had miraculous effects.
In the hospital, Jiang Zhiling completed the discharge procedures and started packing her luggage.
Song Ye sensiblely helped Jiang Zhining clean up.
After packing his things, Song Ye bowed deeply to her: "Mom, you have worked hard during this time."
Seeing his serious look, Jiang Zhiling stroked his head lovingly: "Since I am your mother, I am willing to take care of you."
Song Ye raised his head, his clear eyes full of determination: "If mom gets sick in the future, I will take good care of you."
Jiang Zhiling raised the corners of her lips and pinched his cheek: "You brat, don't curse me."
Song Ye quickly became nervous. He was worried that she would misunderstand, so he hurriedly explained: "Mom, I didn't mean that, I..."
Seeing that his eyes were filled with tears because of her words, Jiang Zhiling quickly said: "Silly boy, I'm teasing you. I know you just want to take care of me. You are a good boy, I have always known that."
Song Ye quickly held back his tears. Song Chen said that he was a crybaby, but he was not.
"I want to be a good son." Song Ye stated his position firmly.
Jiang Zhiling laughed out loud: "Then I'll have to wait and see."
Although Song Ye didn't understand the meaning of the idiom, he nodded solemnly: He had to be good to Jiang Zhiling so that he would not be abandoned.
Jiang Zhiling wanted to carry her luggage, but she saw Song Ye rushing to carry it.
He wanted to show off his appearance and make Jiang Zhiling feel distressed.
"Where's dad?" Song Ye asked curiously.
"He's solving big problems." Jiang Zhiling pretended.
The net has been cast for so long, and it’s time to close it.
