Reborn as a Tough Army Wife

Fang Pingying made a phone call to Luo Zhiyong. Once Luo Zhiyong knew, he didn't say much and quickly rode his bicycle back.

Fang Pingying was waiting for him at home. As soon as Luo Zhiyong entered, he looked around and didn't see anyone. He asked, "Where are my mom and the others?"

Seeing Luo Zhiyong drenched in sweat from cycling, Fang Pingying handed him a towel to wipe off and then said, "Hong Lan took them to the hospital."

"That Luo Zhiming…" Luo Zhiyong clenched his teeth, uncertain how to vent his anger.

They had only had a few months of peace, and Luo Zhiming had dragged everyone back into turmoil. It looked like they would be busy again.

Luo Zhiyong felt guilty as he looked at Fang Pingying, who couldn't have a peaceful life for these few months due to her pregnancy.

Seeing the expression on Luo Zhiyong's face, Fang Pingying knew what he was worried about and comforted him, "If she comes, let her come. The county isn't mine alone, I don't have the right to stop them."

"Now that everyone's here, besides eating and drinking, we have to find them places to stay." Even if he wanted to ignore Luo Zhiming, he couldn't possibly ignore his parents.

"Again, if your mom doesn't cause trouble, I don't mind her being around. When she's taking care of Zhiming, it's fine for her to stay with us, since we have space anyway." Fang Pingying, adhering to a principle of courtesy before force, gave Luo Zhiyong a heads-up, "But Zhiyong, let me be clear, if she behaves like she does at home, I won't tolerate it."

"I'll talk to her," Luo Zhiyong nodded. Although he knew it was unlikely, he still hoped, "Thinking about it, since the New Year, besides sending money, I haven't sent a single message or word home. She should know I am angry with her, maybe she's reflected on some things this month."

Fang Pingying didn't say much, just nodded at him, "Then you talk to her yourself. If things can stay peaceful, I'm not difficult to deal with."

Luo Zhiyong nodded slightly and instructed Fang Pingying, "Alright, then you and Yu'er start preparing the meal. I'll go check on the hospital now."

After Luo Zhiyong left, Fang Pingying and Yu'er started getting dinner ready.

With so many people, Fang Pingying rinsed some rice and cooked it in a pot.

As for dishes, fortunately, the house had a refrigerator. Worried that it would be hard for Fang Pingying to go out to buy food during her pregnancy, Luo Zhiyong always stuffed lots of meat and vegetables in the fridge whenever he came, so that Fang Pingying wouldn't have to go to the market herself.

Usually, Fang Pingying mostly ate at the shop, so there was still a lot of food left in the fridge.

Fang Pingying searched through it and took out some chicken and pork to defrost.

In the bottom compartment of the fridge, there were also some vegetables and fruits. She took out some potatoes, eggplant, and winter melon and thought for a moment, then dug out a few pickled radishes she had made herself.

Fang Pingying cooked herself, while Yu'er helped her.

They made braised pork ribs, stir-fried chicken with pickled radish, minced meat with eggplant, and also made a winter melon soup.

Each dish was served in a big bowl, thinking that this should be enough food.

After they finished cooking, Luo Zhiyong and the others hadn't come back from the hospital yet, so Fang Pingying and Yu'er sat on the sofa, watching TV and chatting.

Yu'er looked at Fang Pingying, pondering and said, "Sister-in-law, when the aunties get here and see how nice your home is, what if she doesn't want to leave and just stays here forever."

"That wouldn't be the case." Fang Pingying sighed, her tone a bit helpless, "And no matter what, Brother Zhiyong and I are still their children and daughter-in-law. They have come all the way here, we can't just not let them through the front door, especially since your uncle also came. Ever since I married into the Luo Family, your uncle has treated me quite well."

"That's true, my uncle has always been a good man, it's just a pity he married such a troublesome aunt." Yu'er was still worried about Zhou Yunmei, "I'm afraid that once she comes here, it will be chaos just like at home."

"If she really makes a fuss, my attitude will be different from what it was at home." Fang Pingying's eyes turned cold as she spoke, "If she doesn't behave, I won't be speaking nicely anymore, and this is my home, I have the authority here."

Yu'er shook her head helplessly, "Ah, every family always has such worries..."

Before Yu'er finished speaking, Fang Pingying suddenly heard noises coming from downstairs. She guessed that it must be Luo Zhiyong and others returning, so she stood up, telling Yu'er, "They're back, let's get ready for dinner."

Yu'er acknowledged and went to the kitchen to start preparing the meal.

Little did they know, as soon as Fang Pingying opened the door, she saw everyone standing at the doorway looking furious, about to knock on the door.

And the moment Fang Xiu saw Fang Pingying, she started shouting out loud behind her, "Fang Pingying, you are so evil, be careful or your child might be born without an anus."

With a "smack," the moment Fang Xiu finished speaking, Zhou Yunmei slapped her face. Zhou Yunmei, unable to contain her anger, pointed at Fang Xiu and scolded, "Who are you cursing, you slut who seduces men outside, yet dares curse my grandson, believe it or not I'll beat you to death!"

Fang Pingying was startled by their reactions and soon realized that Fang Xiu's affair must have been exposed.

After Zhou Yunmei slapped Fang Xiu, naturally, she would not take it lying down. She began crying and screaming, attracting attention from neighbors upstairs and downstairs who began opening their doors and coming out to see what was happening.

"Alright, let's sort it out inside, don't make a scene out here." Luo Zhiyong seeing this, rebuked sharply, and neither Fang Xiu nor Zhou Yunmei made another sound.

After Luo Zhiyong spoke, he walked into the house first, subtly positioning Fang Pingying behind him.

Once everyone was inside, suddenly Fang Xiu rushed towards Fang Pingying, looking like she was ready to fight fiercely, while loudly crying out, "Fang Pingying, you are so despicable, what did you promise me back then?"

Luo Zhiyong anticipated she would react like this, which is why he had Fang Pingying behind him.

He reached out and stopped Fang Xiu, frowning and yelled, "I told you very clearly, it wasn't Pingying who revealed your secret."

Fang Xiu pointed at Fang Pingying resentfully, "You still want to cover up for her, Luo Zhiming himself said it came straight from her mouth!"

Only then did Fang Pingying get a clearer look at Fang Xiu; Fang Xiu's hair was a mess, and both sides of her face were red, seemingly from the slaps she had received. This made Fang Pingying more confident that it must be the affair that had been exposed by the family.

Yet to be even more certain, Fang Pingying pulled Luo Zhiyong aside and asked softly, "Wait, what are you all talking about?"

Luo Zhiyong whispered, "It's about the baby she is carrying, Zhiming already knows, as soon as they went to the hospital, the two of them had a fight, my mom got so mad she slapped Fang Xiu several times, and now Zhiming is yelling about getting a divorce."

This reaction from the Luo Family was within Fang Pingying's expectations, but what puzzled her was the assertion from Luo Zhiming; ever since she had left home, she hadn't really spoken to Luo Zhiming, so how could the information have come from her?
