1970s: My childhood sweetheart ran away, and I turned around and married the wildest chief.

"Don't run! I'm going to find the leaders! Your Bai family is lawless and has framed our family. I want to see if the leaders will still care! What are the soldiers in your Bai family's eyes? Ants that can be crushed at will? Come with me..."

"Qiao Wanqing, what are you doing?"

Commander Bai Wei discovered that Bai Xue had run away and followed her here.

When Qiao Wanqing saw Bai Wei, she ignored her and pulled Bai Xue along, running quickly to the neighboring courtyard.

The leaders who can make decisions all live over there. It's quite far to go to the barracks, and they're all off work by now. Going directly to the compound might be more efficient.

She was very lucky; as soon as she arrived at the gate of the compound, she saw a group of people coming this way.

Qiao Wanqing immediately cried even harder, tears streaming down her face.

"Don't leave! I need to find the leaders and ask them to stand up for the Qiao family. You've used your power to frame our Qiao family, and I will never let this go."

"Qiao Wanqing, let go!" Bai Wei shouted angrily.

Qiao Wanqing wouldn't let go of the person and even tried to go into the courtyard, but she was stopped at the gate. Among the people who came over, Lu Mingzhou didn't know what to say. He could only say that his wife's luck was truly extraordinary.

There were seven or eight people who came, including guards and leaders, two division commanders, one army commander, and most importantly, Chief Jiang.

"What's going on? What's all this noise about? Who bullied you?" It was Chief Jiang who spoke. He knew Lu Mingzhou and Qiao Wanqing. Seeing Qiao Wanqing crying with tears streaming down her face and grabbing Bai Xue, who was in a somewhat delirious state, he spoke up directly.

Bai Wei quickly stepped forward to explain, "It's alright, Chief Jiang..."

"Commander, you have to stand up for me! Bai Xue said her uncle has taken a liking to me, and even if I marry a soldier, I can't escape. If I don't agree, my whole family will be in trouble. My parents were arrested because the Bai family framed us for no reason, just to threaten me into submission. Her uncle is Bai Zhengxiong. He's dead, but he's still so arrogant. He even wants to force me to divorce my husband. She said she has her eye on my husband, and whoever marries him will have to divorce."

If we don't make a scene now, when will we?

Giving her such a huge handle, it would be a disservice not to make a scene.

"Shut up! Qiao Wanqing, stop spreading rumors. There's nothing going on. Your family..."

Bai Wei was surprised that Qiao Wanqing was so outspoken, daring to say such things, and quickly spoke up to stop her.

Unfortunately, Qiao Wanqing had no intention of suppressing the matter at all. At this moment, she was crying very sadly and aggrievedly. When acting, one must be able to cry and sing well, and at the same time, one must be able to deliver lines steadily and pronounce them clearly!

"I'm not lying. Bai Xue said this herself in front of everyone in our family compound. She immediately questioned me about why I married Lu Mingzhou. She said that Lu Mingzhou is hers and I can't marry him. Even if I marry him now, I have to get a divorce. Her uncle has taken a liking to me, so I can't escape. My parents and grandparents were all kidnapped by her uncle before. If I don't agree to her uncle's demands, he will bring misfortune to our whole family."

"Sir, is there no justice left? Bai Xue's uncle must be quite old, right? He probably even has children. He's taken a fancy to me, a young girl, and he threatens me by arresting my whole family at the drop of a hat. We're just honest, ordinary people. Do you think they can just slander us like that?"

"I'm not lying, she said it herself, you can investigate."

Chief Jiang looked at Lu Mingzhou beside him, "Is this true?"

Lu Mingzhou, Qiao Yuanhe, and Li Hongjun had already saluted and were waiting on the side, just waiting for Chief Jiang to say these words!

"Report, it's true. Comrade Bai Xue just said that her uncle has taken a liking to... has taken a liking to my wife. Even if my wife marries me, she can't escape, otherwise her whole family will be in trouble."

"Impossible!" Bai Wei hurriedly denied, "Bai Xue would never say such a thing, she..."

"There were many people in the family compound just now, everyone heard it, Commander Bai, your denial is useless."

"you……"

Bai Wei glanced at the family members watching and knew things had gone wrong. She glared at Bai Xue, thinking, "That good-for-nothing is more likely to ruin things."

Bai Xue was terrified. She hadn't expected things to escalate to this extent. She was too scared to speak and was trembling all over.

Chief Jiang's authoritative eyes swept over the crowd. "Did she really say that?"

The family members who came with him were mostly women and elderly people. Their daily lives consisted of cooking and taking care of children. They had never seen someone like Chief Jiang before. His imposing presence had intimidated them so much that they dared not move. Now that they were being questioned, they had no intention of playing any tricks and all nodded honestly.

Bai Wei panicked when she saw this!

"No, Bai Xue is sick today and isn't in a good mood. There must be some misunderstanding. Maybe she said something inappropriate that caused everyone to misunderstand. I'll take her home now, she..."

"You don't need to rush to explain for her. I'll have someone investigate the truth. I don't care what your Bai family does outside, but this is the military. We don't allow those kinds of things to happen here. Anyone who dares to slander someone without solid evidence will not be let off lightly!"

Chief Jiang glanced at Bai Wei, a hint of disdain in his eyes. Bai Wei felt a chill run down her spine; she understood that look. A wave of humiliation washed over her, and she dared not speak.

Chief Jiang said to everyone, "You can all go back now and go do what you were doing."

At the same time, he said to the guard beside him, "Find out the truth!"

After saying that, he left with the others, without even glancing at Lu Mingzhou, as if he didn't care about him at all.

Wang Jian looked at Lu Mingzhou and then at Chief Jiang, but couldn't figure it out.

Since Chief Jiang's people were involved in the investigation, it was naturally difficult for others to interfere. The investigation was swift, as everyone had indeed heard those words in the family compound at the time.

Two hours later, the investigation results were placed on Chief Jiang's desk.

Lu Mingzhou and his two companions had originally planned to come back for lunch, but this incident left them with no time. They quickly ate at the canteen and then hurried back to the camp, knowing that something bad was bound to happen that afternoon.

Before leaving, Lu Mingzhou comforted Qiao Wanqing, "Don't be afraid, this should be a good thing. There has been a lot of commotion outside these past few years, and the military has been suppressed for so long. There are signs of an explosion. This is such a good handle to offer, and the military may use this as an excuse to reorganize."

Hearing this, Qiao Wanqing felt relieved.

That afternoon, Qiao Wanqing was at home processing the seafood. Some of it she kept to eat, while the rest she cleaned, dried, and preserved. In the future, marine resources will become increasingly scarce, so as long as there is space, she should store some extra to consume gradually in the future.

While working, he was still thinking about other things.
