Jiang Tingxia saw Li Chunmiao trying to leave quietly and called out to her, "Sister Chunmiao, I haven't thanked you for the pesticides you gave me yet."

When Zhang Hongxiang said that she misunderstood and thought that Li Changpu was beating his wife, Jiang Tingxia realized what Li Chunmiao was thinking.

"You were there when I asked the other sisters-in-law about pesticides this morning."

Although Jiang Tingxia was sick, every word he asked was so clear that Li Chunmiao could not refute.

Seeing that Li Chunmiao didn't answer, Zhou Dongmei, who was impatient, simply answered for Li Chunmiao, "Yes, I remember clearly that she was there chatting with us in the morning."

Several people who were there that morning chimed in, "I remember too, she's here."

Jiang Tingxia continued, "When I asked other people to borrow pesticides, no one wanted to lend it to me. I was confused, but now I understand that they were afraid that I would drink it. But what about you? You even chased me and gave me a bottle. What was your idea?"

Li Chunmiao knew that the truth had been revealed. He rolled his eyes and said cunningly, "I thought the medicine you took would be useful, so I gave it to you out of kindness. Why are you accusing me?"

She added, "I didn't know you were going to drink it. I didn't think much about it at the time."

Jiang Tingxia saw her trying to argue and then asked, "Everyone thought I was going to take medicine, but you were the only one who didn't know?"

Li Chunmiao would never admit it. No one could tell what he was thinking. "I'm stupid. I really don't know. If I knew you wanted to drink it, I wouldn't dare give it to you."

Jiang Tingxia found it a little funny, "Then why do you think I need pesticides?"

Li Chunmiao scratched his head and couldn't think of an answer.

Jiang Tingxia reminded him at the right time, "People usually only use this pesticide for one purpose. Do you think I want to use it to grow vegetables and kill insects?"

Li Chunmiao quickly followed this line of thought and said, "That's right, I thought you were going to use it to kill the bugs in the vegetable garden."

This was Jiang Tingxia's rhetoric, the fishing hook, and Li Chunmiao was found out as soon as he tried it.

Jiang Tingxia snorted, "Nonsense, at this time of year, everyone's vegetable garden is empty. If I borrowed pesticides in summer and autumn, the other sisters-in-law wouldn't think much of it."

Under Jiang Tingxia's aggressive questioning, Li Chunmiao unconsciously followed her train of thought and accidentally stepped into the trap she left. She had no choice but to use the same old trick again, "I'm stupid, I didn't think of these things."

Seeing that Li Chunmiao refused to admit it, Jiang Tingxia stopped asking. It was just as Li Chunmiao thought. As long as she refused to admit it, there would be no evidence. She could not be convicted based on what she thought in her mind.

But everyone has a scale in their heart. Through the questions asked by Jiang Tingxia, everyone knew that Li Chunmiao was just a bad person.

Guo Gang looked at everyone's expressions and knew that it was useless for Li Chunmiao to deny it.

Just now when he returned home, Li Chunmiao was putting food on the table. Looking at the noisy crowd outside, he asked, "What happened?"

Li Chunmiao wiped her hands on her apron and said, "Oh, Li Changpu's wife drank pesticide and was sent to the clinic."

Hearing that it was related to Li Changpu, Guo Gang instantly became interested. After asking about what happened, he thought that this matter had become such a big deal, Li Changpu was in trouble this time. Li Changpu would not be included in the next promotion, so his hopes would be greatly increased.

So the couple, each with their own thoughts, just took a few bites of food and came over.

But in the end, things took a long time to get to him.

Seeing He Zhihai's dark face, Guo Gang got anxious and slapped Li Chunmiao in the face, "You bitch, you're always looking for trouble."

Li Chunmiao covered her face and cried. Before anyone had even convicted her, her man was already rushing to punish her.

He Zhihai looked at the chaotic scene and said, "Okay, if you have anything to say, go back to your house. This is not the place for you to handle household affairs."

Guo Gang pulled Li Chunmiao and was about to leave. Li Chunmiao cried miserably like a pig waiting to be slaughtered. She knew what would happen to her after she was taken away.

Jiang Tingxia was frightened by this scene. As a woman, she saw that the difference in strength between men and women was so huge. Li Chunmiao was almost pulled to the ground. Her crying and embarrassment made Jiang Tingxia feel a little sad. She glanced at Li Changpu and couldn't help worrying, would he be that kind of person in this environment?

Nan Fang couldn't stand it anymore and spoke up to stop him, "If you have anything to say, just talk to me. You're scaring me."

After hearing what Nanfang said, Guo Gang didn't dare to move. He let go of Li Chunmiao's hand and yelled at Li Chunmiao twice, "Go home!"

Seeing Li Chunmiao crying, who wouldn't know what was going on? Nan Fang sighed, "Go home, and then, beat your wife behind closed doors."

Guo Gang felt a little guilty after hearing this, "No..."

Having said this, I couldn't say any more.

When it came to their household chores, Li Chunmiao just kept crying and said nothing, so who could help? Finally, Guo Gang took Li Chunmiao away, and everyone else left too. Only Jiang Tingxia, Li Changpu, Nan Fang and He Zhihai were left in the room.

Nan Fang thought about what happened just now and said to He Zhihai, "Look, some people have been promoted but their quality has not kept up."

He Zhihai knew that what Nanfang said was related to him, and subconsciously refuted, "Let go..."

Realizing that Jiang Tingxia was still there, he abruptly stopped the second half of the sentence and changed it to, "We have all been to military academies, fought on battlefields, and attended schools. In ancient times, we were serious champions in both civil and military affairs."

He Zhihai added, "Xiao Xia is still here. If people hear us, they will think we are all illiterate and rough. I don't care if the young couple quarrels over this again."

He Zhihai pointed at Li Changpu with a proud look on his face, and said, "Xiao Xia, don't look at this boy as a quiet guy. He is a serious college student and an outstanding graduate of the military academy. He has not brought shame to our team."

He Zhihai asked again, "Hey, Xiaoxia, what is your educational background?"

He remembered that when they got engaged, Jiang Tingxia was only sixteen years old and still in middle school. He Zhihai was curious about what university she went to later.

Jiang Tingxia looked embarrassed. This was something she didn't want to mention. She was studying in an international school and had a year left before graduation when the situation became tense. Grandpa Jiang smelled some gunpowder and quickly asked all the children in the family not to go to school but to stay at home. Although she avoided the messy interpersonal relationships, her studies were delayed, so Jiang Tingxia only had a junior high school diploma.

There was no way to hide this, so Jiang Tingxia had to answer, "I only have a junior high school education."

He Zhihai exclaimed, very surprised. After all, Jiang Tingxia looked like a scholar and had a bookish air. Who would have thought that she didn't even have a high school diploma.

Faced with He Zhihai's reaction, Jiang Tingxia could only smile awkwardly.

He Zhihai realized his mistake and quickly added, "A junior high school degree is not bad, as long as you can recognize words."

Nan Fang rolled her eyes at him. This Lao He is really bad at talking. Didn't he see that Xiao Xia didn't want to talk about this? She quickly changed the subject, "Lao He, no matter how high a person's education level is or how good his cultural knowledge is, it doesn't mean that his moral character is up to standard. This is the quality issue I'm talking about."

"You can fight, read, and understand military strategy, but that's not enough. You also need to have good character. For example, you have been swearing for years. How unpleasant it is."

"This isn't serious. At most, it's annoying. But what about the wife-beater? Look at what happened today. Fortunately, it was a misunderstanding. If it was true, how would you deal with it?"

"Besides, if such a person can't even respect and care for the person next to him, how can you trust him and hand over various tasks to him? This is no small matter."

He Zhihai was very receptive to other people's opinions. After thinking for a while, he said, "Okay, I'll issue a notice to investigate the work style issues. Anyone who dares to beat his wife in the future will be severely punished."

He Zhihai glanced at Li Changpu and said, "Did you hear that?"

Li Changpu stood up and saluted, "Yes, if I fight with my wife, I will take off this military uniform, so as not to embarrass you and the army."

He Zhihai glanced at him sideways, "What do you mean, kid? Are you trying to bully me?"

That's how he scolded him just now.

Li Changpu's expression was particularly serious, and he said in a loud voice, "Report to the leader, I am speaking from the heart."

He Zhihai looked at him suspiciously, not sure whether he was showing his loyalty to his wife or expressing his dissatisfaction with his old leader who had indiscriminately convicted him.

He felt that they were both alike.

This brat.

Jiang Tingxia felt relieved listening to his powerful words. He swears on his profession that he must have nothing to hide. This trip to the hospital was quite rewarding, as at least he knew that Li Changpu would not hit people.

Jiang Tingxia thought proudly that if she didn't hit anyone, it would be considered as just enough for her to choose a husband.

Before leaving, Nan Fang asked again, "Xiao Xia, did he really not bully you?"

Jiang Tingxia smiled at her, "Really not."

Nan Fang finally believed it. "Okay, you married me from so far away from home. If you get wronged in the future, just come to me and tell me. Lao He and I will be the first to deal with this guy."

Nanfang said, then changed the subject, "However, Changpu has been with Lao He for more than ten years, and we all trust his character."

Li Changpu glanced at the footprints on his pants and said nothing.

Nanfang continued, "When your grandfather asked us to introduce you to a marriage partner, we carefully selected and screened everyone around us, and it turned out that Changpu had the best conditions and was the most suitable for you."

"I've been thinking about asking about your situation these past two days. How are you doing? Are you adapting to everything after getting married?"

Jiang Tingxia thought about the past two days, nodded and said, "Yeah."

Nanfang smiled and said, "Okay, as long as you and your wife live happily together."

"Just now you said that Changpu is a good person. It seems that Lao He and I were right in our matchmaking. We are qualified."
