Chapter 162 The Old Lady's Dog Grandson

Shu Yun pointed at A happy, who was lying on the ground with her belly up, and said to Wang Xiuwen, "Mom, A happy needs to lose some weight. You've been feeding her too much. Give her less next time."

Wang Xiuwen disagreed. She affectionately patted the dog's head and belly, "Our Axi isn't fat at all. She's just right now. What's there to lose weight for? Being able to eat is a blessing, don't you think, Axi?"

Ah-Xi barked once.

Shu Yun: ...

Wang Xiuwen looked on warily, "You can't mistreat Axi. I keep an eye on her dog food every day. Don't worry about anything else right now, just take good care of the baby."

The old lady's protective expression left Shu Yun speechless: Fine, you can protect it now, but once you leave, you'll see how I mistreat it.

At this moment, Gu Jun watched as Wang Xiuwen poured rice mixed with braised pork broth into the dog's bowl and couldn't help but say, "Mom, Ah happy is eating better than a human."

Wang Xiuwen didn't take it seriously, "It's not like we don't have the means. I'm happy to give it to our Axi. You can go away."

Now Gu Jun realized that his standing in the old lady's heart had dropped another level.

Gu Jun walked into the bedroom, first glancing at the baby whose cheeks were rosy from sleeping, before sitting down next to Shu Yun and tentatively asking, "Did you go to the division commander's house today?"

Shu Yun paused, her hand holding the paintbrush still, and raised an eyebrow at him. "Oh ho, you're quite well-informed."

"Are you really being bullied?" Seeing Gu Jun's furrowed brows, serious expression, and stern face, looking like he was about to start a fight, she couldn't help but laugh and say, "What's wrong? Are you going to come to my door to demand an explanation?"

Gu Jun frowned even more, his brow furrowing deeply. "If we've really been bullied, we'll go to their door and demand an explanation."

Shu Yun was taken aback, not expecting Gu Jun to be so direct. Her pause was interpreted by Gu Jun as Shu Yun being bullied. His aura grew even colder as he stood up, took Shu Yun's hand, and said, "No, let's go. The division commander is definitely at home now."

Shu Yun was startled, not expecting Gu Jun to be serious. "Are you crazy? If you really go to the teacher, not only will my relationship with the teacher's wife worsen, but you will also leave a bad impression on the teacher. Do you still want to move up the ranks?"

Gu Jun remained unyielding and refused to listen. "Whether I get promoted or not doesn't depend on my relationship with the leaders. Besides, I will earn military merits. We won't cause trouble, but we can't be afraid of trouble either. Before we got married, I promised you and Grandpa that I would cherish and protect you for the rest of my life. That promise will hold true no matter what the circumstances."

After Gu Jun finished speaking, he dragged the person forward a little, but Shu Yun quickly pulled him back. "Okay, okay, calm down. I didn't suffer any grievances today. I got a free meal and ate three pieces of pork belly."

She pushed Gu Jun down onto a chair. "Besides, although the division commander's wife is cold to me, I don't think she's the type to deliberately go against me. Since she doesn't want to associate with me, I won't join in. It seems like I can't go through the 'wife diplomacy' thing."

Gu Jun pulled her into his arms. "If you don't like it, then we don't have to get along. I don't need so-called 'wife diplomacy.' I will earn the glory I give you little by little."

Shu Yun felt comforted and gently rested her head on Gu Jun's broad and firm chest. "Yes, I'll be waiting."

The two leaned against each other, enjoying a rare moment of warmth since the birth of their child. But after a short while, Shu Yun watched as Gu Jun's ears turned from flesh-colored to red, and even his face turned slightly red.

Shu Yun narrowed her eyes. This shouldn't be happening. They've been married for a long time, and he can't even handle such a slightly intimate gesture? She nudged Gu Jun. "What's wrong with you?"

Gu Jun was a little embarrassed, but under Shu Yun's gaze, he honestly said, "You smell just like our baby now, all milky and sweet."

Shu Yun hesitated, then glanced at the milk stain that had spread across her clothes again. She couldn't help but punch Gu Jun hard, "Get lost."

This was already the second outfit she had changed into today. Her breasts were engorged, and her clothes would get soaked in no time, which was already enough to bother Shu Yun. And what nonsense was this person spouting?

On the other side, Wang Chunmei reheated the leftovers from the daytime meal. Just then, Commander You Jiaguo returned. Wang Chunmei said, "What a coincidence! Wash your hands and come eat."

Division Commander You asked, "How did you get along with the military families in the compound during the day? Did you get along with any of them?"

"They're alright, everyone's nice." Wang Chunmei handed one of the steamed egg tarts to Commander You. "Try this, it's fragrant and sweet."

Wang Chunmei also picked one up and took a bite, her face immediately scrunched up. "It doesn't taste good after steaming. The outer skin is soft and soggy, not crispy anymore."

"I should have known better than to heat it up," Wang Chunmei said regretfully.

Although she complained, her fighting spirit remained strong; she ate one and immediately...

Commander You asked, "Did you see Xiao Gu's lover today? How was it?"

Upon hearing the name, Wang Chunmei instinctively frowned, her face showing displeasure. Commander You asked curiously, "Just the other day you said you wanted to meet a military wife named Shu Yun, praising her literary talent to the skies. How come you've met her? Little Gu's taste isn't that bad, is it?"

Wang Chunmei sighed, "I don't deny that she's talented. I've seen her comic books and propaganda posters, and they're all very good. But her character is questionable, and she's not worth getting close to."

Commander You was even more surprised, "When did you become so good at judging people? You've only been here a few days and you've already seen through human nature."

Wang Chunmei was angry and glared at her husband. "Hey, you old man, how can you talk to your wife like that?"

She rolled her eyes at her husband, picked up an egg tart, and said while eating, "Didn't I tell you about Xiao Ding in the family compound? Ding Hongmei, she's the daughter of my former neighbor from my maternal family. I practically watched her grow up. It's fate that we're now in the same compound. She told me about Shu Yun, her former college classmate. Putting aside her parents' political issues, she had a bad reputation in school and was jealous that Xiao Ding graduated from university while she had to drop out without even getting a diploma. After Xiao Ding came to the compound, that girl Shu Yun has been causing her a lot of trouble..."

After listening, Commander You only snorted, "You, after all these years, still haven't improved your judgment of people. How can you judge a person from a few words from others? You have to get to know them yourself and form your own judgment from their words and actions. You can't just listen to one side and believe one side. You can't do that."

Wang Chunmei retorted, "I've known Xiao Ding since I was a child."

Commander You: "You can see him from a baby to an adult? Didn't you marry me later? I don't remember having such a child."

Wang Chunmei muttered, "Anyway, we've known each other for several years, you just don't know." As she spoke, she reached for the egg tart again. Commander You laughed and said, "You're still talking badly about people, but you're not picky about food. You seem to enjoy other people's food very much."

Wang Chunmei didn't believe it. "Did Shu Yun make this?"

Commander You: "You didn't even know who sent it? You're such a scatterbrain. I think it's most likely made by Shu Yun. Xiao Gu brought some to the troops before. I tried one, and the taste was pretty much the same."

Wang Chunmei said sheepishly, "I must say, the skills are quite good."

"He who eats another's food is bound to him," so after finishing the plate of egg tarts, Wang Chunmei stopped saying anything bad about Shu Yun.
