It seems that Lu Yanzheng is determined to indulge his wife's nonsense, deliberately using this incident to retaliate against the old grudges caused by everyone making things difficult for Xiao in the past.

Seeing that persuasion was ineffective and having exhausted all other options, Director Zhang had no choice but to swallow his pride and plead.

"Commander Lu, this farm doesn't raise livestock. How will our troops get meat in the future?"

"How about this? You talk to Comrade Xiao and ask her to terminate the lease. We'll refund her the full amount of rent and find her a new farmer, okay?"

Of course not!

This farm absolutely cannot be closed down. If it is, Yang Erni will have to be sent back to her hometown. Then Xiao Re will have no playmates, and he won't have meat to eat at night.

Whether the rest of the troops can get meat is none of his business. That's a problem for their logistics department to worry about.

Who told these people to isolate themselves? Now they can't even afford meat, serves them right!

"No discussion!"

"Everyone in the entire unit knows that I, Lu Yanzheng, am afraid of my wife. If you want to discuss this, go talk to her yourselves."

This……

Is he still that tough, unyielding regimental commander? He actually admitted in public that he's afraid of his wife? To indulge his wife's tantrums, he's even abandoned all dignity as a man.

"Commander Lu, could you please consider the overall situation of the troops and do me the favor of helping us solve this problem? I'm begging you."

Lu Yanzheng's lips curled into a cold smile, his gaze darkening.

"Director Zhang, why didn't you consider the bigger picture and give me some face by helping my wife find a job? I begged you for help too."

Zhang Rong's back stiffened, overwhelmed with shame.

"I'm sorry, Commander Lu. I didn't think this through and my actions were unethical. I apologize to you."

"As long as you can persuade your sister-in-law to leave the farm, I guarantee that I will arrange any position in the logistics department that she likes."

Lu Yanzheng dared not make decisions for Xiao about what she had done. If things escalated, he wouldn't be able to control the situation.

"Director Zhang, it's not that I'm deliberately making things difficult for you. You know my wife's personality; when she's stubborn, she won't listen to anyone."

"She's the one who contracted this farm. If you want to apologize or terminate the lease, go talk to her about it. I can't make that decision for you."

Because the livestock at the farm are crucial to the meat supply for the entire army canteen, Quartermaster Wang Biaozi also came.

He was a typical male chauvinist in the army. Because his wife had given birth to three daughters without a son, he took his anger out on her every day, beating and scolding her at the drop of a hat. He was a typical bully at home in the army.

Upon hearing Lu Yanzheng say he was afraid of his wife, he immediately perked up and shamelessly began to lecture him on his own practice of beating his wife.

"Commander Lu, you're known as the toughest soldier in our army, Iron Leopard. How come you can't even handle a wife?"

"This woman is disobedient; a good scolding will make her behave. We can't let her boss us around; it's so embarrassing."

In my opinion...

Before Wang Biaozi could finish his rant, Lu Yanzheng gave him a sharp look and then kicked him hard with a flying kick.

"Wang Biao, who the hell do you think you are? A mere quartermaster, how dare you act so insolent in front of me?"

"I, Lu Yanzheng, love my wife, and that's my choice. If you dare to spout any more nonsense, I'll cripple you."

Lu Yanzheng's kick was so powerful that it sent Wang Biaozi crashing into the railing and falling heavily to the ground.

Zhang Rong and Xiao Wen rushed forward to stop them and tried to dissuade them.

"Commander Lu, please calm down. This Wang Biaozi is being rude and said some unpleasant things. Please don't take it to heart. He was just worried that there wouldn't be enough meat in the kitchen, and he lost his temper."

"Actually, he didn't have any bad intentions, so please don't take it to heart."

A good-for-nothing who beats his wife every day, and even instigated him to bully his wife, actually said he had no bad intentions.

Originally, Lu Yanzheng planned to go back and persuade Xiao Re to give up the breeding farm.

It seems that if these people aren't taught a lesson, they won't know their place.

"I can't control what he's thinking. But my family affairs are none of those irrelevant and filthy people's business."

"Whether you have meat to eat or not is none of my business!"

"You're so good at scolding your wives, why don't you go to the city and carry some pork yourselves?"

Lu Yanzheng's body surged with murderous intent, and his imposing aura erupted. He roared like thunder.

"Someone come here!"

"It's training time now. All departments, assemble and form teams!"

With that, he strode towards the training ground, leaving Zhang Rong and the others standing there, embarrassed and helpless, to fend for themselves.

With Lu Yanzheng backing them up, these people no longer dared to consult with Xiao Re.

After all, that woman, who is gentle on the outside but tough on the inside, is even more difficult to deal with than Iron Leopard.

Most importantly, she has a contract, hasn't done anything wrong, and even raised a pig as a cover. There's no way to find any fault on the surface, so there's no way to make her quit.

The only solution Director Zhang could think of was to provide Wang Biaozi with a three-wheeled cart and have him go to the city's farmers' market to buy pork every morning.

This was a real hardship for Wang Biaozi.

From the military base to the farmers' market, it's at least four kilometers away. To catch the pork at the morning market, you have to set off at least 4 a.m. to queue up. A pig weighs at least 200 pounds, and with the rugged road and steep slopes, it's exhausting.

After such a tiring day, let's see if he still has the energy to beat his wife.

After the inspection team left, Xiao Re and Yang Erni also started to get busy.

Busy with eating, playing, and having fun.

When I was a kid, I wanted to do something, but I had nowhere to do it. That's why I often got into trouble and damaged the old, broken things belonging to my neighbors.

Now that we have such a large space, money, and readily available materials like wood and sheet metal, we should make good use of it and come up with some new and fun things.

On a whim, Xiao Re and Yang Erni rented a tractor and went to the city to buy a truckload of scrap metal.

Then, they started working on it behind closed doors.

For several days in a row, he stayed in the pigsty, banging and hammering away, I don’t know what he was working on.

Anyway, she provided the brains, and Yang Erni provided the physical labor. She told Yang Erni to do things the way she wanted, and Yang Erni did them the way she wanted.

A week later, this huge farm became her and Yang Erni's playground.

They set up a huge swing that was over ten meters high, and when they swung, they could fly as high as a three-story building.

Lu Yanzheng's legs went weak just looking at it.

She even built a seesaw that could bounce, so that when she jumped, she could just reach the top of the big tree outside the farm and pick the red persimmons.

While others fly kites, she flies airplanes.

Although it's just a small foam airplane, it has some kind of contraption inside that allows it to take off autonomously and adjust its course with the wind.

It's much more sophisticated than flying a kite.

Even more unbelievable is that she bought a big yellow dog from some farmer's house.

This wasn't for guarding the house, but for—pulling the cart.

While others rode in oxcarts or horse-drawn carriages, she invented something else—a dog-drawn carriage.

She even had that big yellow dog pull her around the yard.

This attracted hundreds of children from the family compound to chase after the dog cart.

This scene left Lu Yanzheng speechless, both amused and exasperated.

The leaders in the military were even more distressed, their faces as dark as burnt rice crust.

"Lu Yanzheng, what's your troublesome wife up to now?"
