Rebirth: Solely Cherished by the Devoted Commander

Chapter 121: Chapter 121: Schemes in the Heart

Moreover, everyone says her aunt is living well, but now it seems like this; what kind of husband did she marry, something like a beast! She originally could have left with dignity, but seeing her aunt like this, she thought about it and really couldn’t swallow this. So she had a sense of stirring things up.

She said, "It’s too late now, I’ll leave first thing in the morning."

Su Jinxiu continued to shout, "No way, get out, don’t you understand human language? Get out right now!"

Su Miao jumped up: "In the middle of the night, where does aunt want to drive me to? I don’t even know what evil thing I’ve done, uncle, if you also think I shouldn’t be here, just say the word, and I’ll leave without a second thought. If I’ve done nothing wrong yet get driven out in the night, and it gets back to the village, I won’t be able to live. I haven’t done anything, why are you treating me like this?" As she finished, her eyes reddened, and she began to sob softly.

Su Jinxiu was so furious seeing her niece so defiant that she almost fainted. Seeing her husband’s eyes fixed on Su Miao, she was even angrier. Both women had their grievances, and they both started to cry.

Su Jinxiu nowadays was just a shrew; she had been pestering persistently during her pregnancy, which had long annoyed Zhao Yingjun.

Now, because of pregnancy, her body was bloated, and she looked haggard. But look at Su Miao, her face was charming, like a flower with dew, delightful to behold.

Zhao Yingjun waved his hand impatiently, "Enough! Su Jinxiu, even if you are unreasonable, have some limits. Your niece is like this, what else do you want? You won’t be satisfied until you drive her out, will you? You’re pregnant, yet you’re being so vicious!"

Su Jinxiu screamed as soon as she heard her husband defending someone else, "Get out! All of you get out, or I’ll die right here in front of you!"

She ran to the kitchen and grabbed a kitchen knife, waving it at her husband and niece, "If you don’t get out tonight, I’m going to fight to the death with you! I’ll let everyone in the neighborhood see how shameless you are!"

Both saw Su Jinxiu slashing around madly and were terrified. Zhao Yingjun, though lustful, was concerned about his reputation. He pushed aside Su Jinxiu’s wrist and then grabbed the luggage, thrusting it into Su Miao’s hands.

"Alright, your aunt has gone mad! You better lay low for now, I’ll come find you when I have time," he said, not waiting for Su Miao’s response, and pushed her out directly.

The door slammed shut, leaving Su Miao out in the cold corridor.

From the room came the sounds of Su Jinxiu’s cries and uproar, but soon it quieted down. Su Jinxiu wasn’t foolish; she fought hard for her marriage and couldn’t let it go to waste. It was enough to drive out that fox spirit.

Meanwhile, Su Miao, on the corridor, gave a cold smile, picked up her luggage, and walked out. What a bunch of bastards! One day, I’ll have you all kneeling at my feet.

As she walked out of the neighborhood, she saw the gaze of the gate guard, somewhat inexplicably contemptuous. It made her feel particularly uncomfortable, but she still held her head high and walked out in large strides.

In fact, she had money on her; if she stayed in a hotel outside, she could manage it for a month. But Su Miao thought, what if she went to find Gu Junming? Driven out by her aunt overnight, how pitiful, maybe she could get some care from him; he did promise to find her a job.

So that night, she took a vehicle to find Gu Junming, thinking that if he arranged a place for her to stay, she might be seen by others, and over time, someone might gossip.

By then, she could be ambiguous, letting others think she was his girlfriend.

Su Miao was a young maiden; if her reputation was ruined, she would have no choice but to marry him.

With this plan, she took the bus overnight to Gu Junming’s camp. But who knew that upon arrival she was told that because of an earthquake in the nearby city, the entire battalion had gone for disaster relief and was not there.

No one knew who she was, so naturally they didn’t dare let her into the camp. So Su Miao hit a dead end, returned angrily, found a hotel, sat there, wasted her ticket money, didn’t see the person, was wronged by her uncle, and the more she thought about it, the angrier she got, sitting on the bed fuming.

Su Miao gritted her teeth, "I definitely won’t be unlucky forever. I will be great, driving you all mad with jealousy!"

But ultimately, she was still unwilling to give up, wanting to wait for Gu Junming to return, and then seek refuge with him.

Su Miao started scheming against Gu Junming.

Sun Chan had no idea of Su Miao’s intentions. That night, after both she and Guihua had gone to bed, there was a knock at the door, and they both got a bit flustered, hurriedly reached out and knocked, "Who is it?"

"It’s me, the Deputy Battalion Commander sent me to deliver a message."

It was Xiao Wu they had met before.

Sun Chan quickly went over to welcome him in, and Xiao Wu handed Sun Chan a letter.

Opening it, she saw just a few lines, very scrawly: Earthquake in a neighboring city, I have to go on a mission, aiming to return soon. I’ll come find you then.

Sun Chan looked nervously at Xiao Wu in front of her, "Has your Deputy Battalion Commander left?"

"Yes, I have to go too. But I need to prepare some things and deliver messages to several battalion commanders and regimental commanders’ families, going overnight! He was afraid you’d worry, telling me to let you know, don’t worry, there’s no more earthquake, it’s very safe." noveldrama

"Then... then I’ll get you a cup of water, sit for a while, wait a moment!" Sun Chan hurriedly started looking for things.

She thought about it, these people going for disaster relief, having trouble eating and drinking, might be staying in tents, certainly very inconvenient.

So she first got out all the freshly baked pancakes from the kitchen, then threw the remaining eggs into the pot to boil, the stove was very hot, so they’d be cooked soon. After cooling them in cold water for a moment, she packed them into a bag, also found some fruits, and Guihua helped out on the side, laying out some pickles and such.

Sun Chan had been selling fruit outside, so she prepared many cotton gloves, knitted some large cotton socks, which she also got out, handing them all to Xiao Wu.

Xiao Wu smiled, "You’ve thought it through well, we have everything else, just no cotton socks."

"It’s nothing, use them for you two." Sun Chan took out some money to give to Xiao Wu, but he refused.

"Don’t worry, the higher-ups provide my clothes, food, and lodging for free. I must go, I have quite a few more homes to visit." Xiao Wu soon left.

Sun Chan saw him out, nagging him to tell Gu Junming to be careful.

Xiao Wu thought, no wonder the Deputy Battalion Commander likes this young sister-in-law so much, she may be young, but she’s very caring, unlike the other commanders’ wives who only worry, one even cried, yet didn’t think of these things at all.
