The military wife is pregnant and the tycoon, who has no heir, spoils her rotten.

Chapter 8 I, Xia Zhi, will not take the blame for this!
Xia Zhi pushed Lu Beiting to the front of the Gu family's house and looked at Zhang Xiao, "Aunt Zhang, you promised to pay me back yesterday, are you ready?"

Zhang Xiao felt a little scared when she saw Lu Beiting. Gu Chonglin, who was standing next to her, glared at her and said, "Scared of what?!"
The next second, still bending over and smiling, he stepped forward and quickly said:
"Battalion Commander Lu, you've been fooled by Xia Zhi! It's not like that at all!"

Lu Beiting looked up. "Oh? What do you mean?"

Upon hearing this, a triumphant smile flashed in Gu Chonglin's eyes.

Then, looking at him with a troubled expression, she said, "Battalion Commander Lu, you've always been in the army, so you probably don't know anything about what's going on in our compound."

Xia Zhi, what a character she is. Ever since she got engaged to Yun Shen, she's been up to no good.

We had no choice but to make her use it as collateral. Don't believe me? Ask everyone!

After Gu Chonglin finished speaking, he winked at the people next to him.

"Oh, that's right, Battalion Commander Lu. Xia Zhi is an orphan with bad character. If it weren't for the fact that she is the orphan of a hero, we would have reported it to the higher-ups long ago."

"Battalion Commander Lu, yesterday we thought we were all from the same compound, and there was no need to make things so ugly, so we didn't say anything."

Who knew Xia Zhi would take advantage of her weakness and push her luck?

"I only helped her out of pity, but who knew this little girl was greedy and wanted to extort her again. What an ingrate!"

A group of cunning old people lied without batting an eye, each one of them portraying Xia Zhi as heartless and ungrateful.

Grandma Liu Guifang, leaning on her cane, walked forward with tears streaming down her face, wiping away snot and sobs.

"Battalion Commander Lu, Xia Zhi is ruthless. When I discovered she was stealing money, she pushed me to the ground when she realized she had been caught."

You know I'm getting on in years, I can't take a fall. I always go to the military hospital for treatment. You can go and get it checked if you don't believe me!

……

Chen Xiuping's eyes lit up when she saw this. She hadn't expected that everyone would become so united and cooperative after just one night.

If things continue like this, who will still believe in Xia Zhi?
"Battalion Commander Lu, we were wrong about Liping's matter, and we sincerely apologize to you. You are an upright person and should not have been led by the nose by Xia Zhi."

Xia Zhi listened to these words and felt not much anger, but rather a chill in her heart.

The original owner was an orphan who lived in a compound. He had to be careful with his every move. Who among the people there had not received the original owner's kindness?

Now they're turning around and accusing me because of a few eggs? Does that mean all the effort I've put in over the years is worth less than a few eggs?
Xia Zhi composed herself, gave a cold snort, and began to dredge up old grievances against the first woman who stood up.

"Aunt Zhang Min, what are you saying? Last year, when your family harvested potatoes, everyone in the compound was busy."

Did I go and collect them for you? I spent three whole days collecting them, and there were even rotten vegetables bitten by insects. Were you afraid of losing money, so you shamelessly insisted that I collect them and take them to town to sell?
I'm afraid it's more than that, isn't it? And if I helped you, did I accept anything from you or eat your food?

This person has no conscience; aren't they afraid of divine retribution?

A wave of shame washed over Zhang Min, then her voice was barely audible, "It's not like I asked you to help, and besides, I did pay you."

Upon hearing this, Xia Zhi immediately refused to back down, her voice booming, "Oh! That stuff that's practically moldy is your reward!"
"Then how about I send you two tomorrow!"

The group of people were stunned by Xia Zhi's loud voice, and even the people in the neighboring courtyard came out when they heard the commotion.

Seeing that things had gotten a bit out of hand, the others turned around guiltily and tried to go back inside.

Xia Zhi, with her sharp eyes, quickly called out, "Hey, isn't this Wang Chunhua, who almost miscarried a few years ago when she was pregnant?"

Oh my god, who's the ingrate here?! When you miscarried, your husband wasn't there, and your mother-in-law didn't care. Wasn't it me who went to the hospital behind your back?

I'm just asking you, isn't that right!

Xia Zhi raised her voice and roared, her whole face turning red with anger.

It was the dead of winter, and the road was covered in snow. The original owner carried her on her back without stopping, step by step, until she reached the hospital. She was almost half-dead back then, and now she has the nerve to call her an ingrate? How dare she!
Wang Chunhua was so frightened that her legs trembled and she fell to the ground, tears glistening in her eyes.

"The hospital has the records, do you want me to go find them? I, Xia Zhi, am not going to take the blame for this today!"

The guilty men turned pale, and their calves began to shiver uncontrollably.

"No, no need, I was wrong, Xia Zhi, I was wrong!"

Wang Chunhua rushed forward, crying, and hugged her leg, but her child was still young and needed extra nutrition.

She... she can't help it.

Xia Zhi looked at Liu Guifang with a cold glint in her eyes. This old hag is the most vicious. She's fine all the time, but she's always complaining of aches and pains.

They were trying to find ways to torment the original owner of this body, saying that since she was a daughter-in-law of the Gu family, she should act like a good daughter-in-law.

Liu Guifang didn't know why, but she was frightened by Xia Zhi's gaze.

"I'd steal money from you? How much money do you have? Enough to make me steal it?"

"Xia Zhi, you have absolutely no respect for your elders!"

Gu Chonglin didn't believe his wife when she told him yesterday, but now that he's seen it, he's surprised to find that Xia Zhi has really gone mad.

"Didn't you say I was an orphan and ill-mannered?"
Oh, so you know I have no parents? A bunch of shameless old men are bullying a little girl like me.

"Put your hands on your hearts and ask yourselves honestly, haven't you really gotten a single benefit from me, Xia Zhi, all these years?"

Their eyes darted around, they were practically about to speak.

Xia Zhi snorted coldly. The original owner had worked harder than men all these years; her lung capacity was no joke!

People from the neighboring compound were pointing and whispering about them.

"How could these people do this? They probably took advantage of Xia Zhi's lack of family and ganged up on her to bully her. They're shameless."

"If it were me, I wouldn't have the face to say that."

The people in the compound felt like they wanted to disappear into the ground.

Zhang Xiao panicked when he saw this. "Battalion Commander Lu, Xia Zhi, let's go back inside and talk about it properly."

Xia Zhi crossed her arms and twisted her body, almost causing her to fall to the ground.

"I'm not afraid of losing face, so what are you afraid of?"

Now you realize how shameful you are? Where were you before?
Looking at Xia Zhi's fierce appearance, Zhang Yi didn't know whether to feel fortunate or worried for his battalion commander.

Their combat effectiveness is unmatched, even by a battalion commander.

Lu Beiting was also stunned. In his twenty-four years of life, this was the first time he had ever seen such a scene.

That makes sense, though. If she weren't assertive, she'd be bullied, and that wouldn't be so bad.

Gu Yunshen was reading at home, but after hearing Xia Zhi's shrewish cursing, he couldn't concentrate on his book at all.

She got up, pushed open the door, and walked out. "That's enough, Xia Zhi. The reason you're making such a fuss is simply because you feel resentful that the person I like is Li Ping."

"Stop messing around, I'll marry you, okay?"

After saying that, he still had a humiliated look on his face.
