As she poured the wine, her beautiful big eyes did not forget to glance at Jun Wu. She said in a coquettish and blaming manner,"Drink less!" It was probably this casual action between lovers that Wu Santu saw clearly, and the jealousy in his heart could not help but flare up.
Without waiting for the militia commander to speak, Wu Santu suddenly stood up and raised his wine glass to Secretary Zhang. He said,"I, Wu Santu, was originally a country bumpkin. Thanks to the village party branch and the militia company's training, I joined the army with such an outstanding person like Brother Junwu.
"In the army, the ones who receive rewards for meritorious service will definitely be people like Brother Junwu. As for me, it's already good enough for me to get a party vote and get back my identity as a retired soldier!
"However, Brother Junwu, I don't dare to compare myself to you in other aspects. However, if I were to be discharged and come back, I'm still confident that I can marry a wife as good as Sister Lian 'er. Do you believe me?"
Jun Wu knew that he was jealous, but as the person involved, he really couldn't say anything. Moreover, it was at his future father-in-law's family banquet. He could only laugh, thinking to himself that this kind of words were just a straightforward mouth!
However, when the militia captain heard what he said, he felt embarrassed. When he saw Zhang Lian's angry expression, he immediately scolded Baldy Wu,"Third Baldy, why are you spouting nonsense? Did you get drunk just now?"
Secretary Zhang, on the other hand, was exceptionally calm when he heard Wu Santu's words. He probably didn't have the chance to talk to Wu Santu about this usually. Now that he was drinking at home, perhaps he should tell him about this properly! Hence, he started to talk about this.
"Third Baldy, perhaps you have something to say.”Secretary Zhang calmly started the topic."To be honest, we think Ting is happy that your family asked someone to propose marriage. This means that your family thinks highly of our family and our daughter.
"But I'll tell you, why did we decline? It's not that you're not outstanding, but we have to consider Junwu's feelings. Junwu and your Sister Lian 'er were childhood sweethearts. From elementary school to high school, they had been together for many years.
"Moreover, regarding marriage, I once had a gentleman's agreement with Junwu's father. Now that our daughter has grown up, how can we make the decision on our own and decide on our daughter's life?
"To be honest, many people have come to propose marriage to Lian 'er before you. There are no less than seven or eight families in our village, but we didn't agree. This was the reason.
"Third Baldy, although you're young, you're very shrewd in dealing with people. In the future, when you come back and live a good life, you will definitely find a better girl than your Sister Lian 'er. Hehe, Third Baldy, you won't blame us elders for this, right?”
"That's right, Third Baldy. Everything has to be done on a first-come, first-served basis. Even if it was in order, Junwu should be ranked before you, right?”The militia company commander's words were originally meant to give Secretary Zhang a slip, but he didn't expect it to anger Third Baldy.
"Second Uncle, what do you mean by first come first serve? Do you think this is a line to buy vegetables and I'll pick up the wedge? Wrong! I'm openly pursuing my beautiful love.
"Usually, I have a lot of things to confess to Sister Lian 'er, but I don't have the chance. Today, I'm here in front of Secretary Zhang to express my feelings for my sweetheart. What's wrong with that?”
"It's not impossible for you to confess your love. However, it's not appropriate for you to say such things in front of Junwu. At the very least, he's impolite." The militia captain scolded him loudly.
"What are you afraid of in front of Brother Junwu? Brother Junwu, let me tell you, as long as you and Sister Lian 'er haven't registered your marriage, I have the right to pursue my own love. Our chances are equal. Do you admit it or not?"
Jun Wu wanted to fight back when he saw him challenging him. However, she felt that this occasion was really…Sigh!
"Third Baldy, shut your mouth!" The militia captain slammed his wine glass on the table and scolded,""You clearly know that Junwu and Lian 'er are dating. Why are you still doing this? Are you looking for trouble or something? If you want to be beaten up…speak."
"So what if they're dating? As long as they did not get married, they would not be protected by the law. I have the right to pursue Sister Lian 'er."
"Third Baldy, are you trying to be smug?”The militia captain raised his hand high.
"Second Uncle, are you going to hit me? Go ahead and fight! It's normal for us young people to talk about love. Brother Junwu and Sister Lian 'er haven't said anything yet, so why are you interfering?”
"Bastard! A pure bastard!" The militia captain cursed angrily, then sat down and pointed at Wu Santu's nose."A few days ago, the county conscription office came to conduct a political review. Who was the one who begged me to put in a good word? Was it you, Third Baldy Wu, father and son? What?
"I said a few words to you today, and you said that I was meddling. At that time, there were political examiners guarding, so why did you say that I was meddling? Do you think that you can look down on an old man like me just because you've become a soldier?
"Let me tell you, you haven't put on your military uniform yet. You're not a real soldier yet! As a militia, I can send you to the army and bring you back.
"As long as I call the county conscription office now, I can revoke your qualifications to join the army. Do you believe me?" The militia captain was indeed formidable, exposing Third Baldy Wu's secret at the crucial moment.
After saying that, seeing Baldy Wu's face still tense and unconvinced, the militia captain simply left the table and went to the telephone to make a call.
This time, Third Baldy Wu panicked. He quickly walked behind the militia commander's leather drum and knelt down with a thud. He cried out loudly,"Second Uncle, I was wrong! I'm a bastard. I'm not human. Don't call!" As he spoke, he started playing his own game.
Looking at Third Baldy Wu's clumsy performance, Jun Wu found it extremely funny. Today was the second day of the new year. The people in the county conscription office were all on vacation. Who would answer the phone? The militia captain might have called someone's house to deliberately scare him, right?
However, what was the militia company commander talking about when the county conscription office came for a political review? Could it be that Baldy Wu had really done something bad in the village and begged the militia company commander to hide it? If that was the case, then this Third Baldy Wu really wasn't a kind person.
Seeing Wu Santu continue to hit his butt, the militia commander turned around and kicked him in disgust. Then, he said,"Get lost! Did you really think I would call the conscription office? I'm calling your parents to ask them to get rid of you. I don't want to embarrass myself here!"
Baldy Wu stopped hitting the bar, but with this commotion, he didn't have the face to stand up and continue drinking. Just like that, Secretary Zhang's farewell banquet for the two recruits ended unhappily with Third Baldy Wu causing a ruckus.
