Back to the 60s: The Struggle Career of a Charmed Wife

Lu Jiang never expected that on his first day back at work after his leave, he’d have to deal with Jiu Hong and Lu Zhaodi’s marital issues. Although there was a dedicated department managing the marriages of military personnel, as a military commander, he had to inquire into matters concerning his subordinates.

"Right, you read that correctly. Jiu Hong wants to divorce Lu Zhaodi," Zheng Xuefeng said as Lu continued reading.

"What reason?" Lu Jiang asked.

"Just look for yourself, the reason is written clear as day."

Lu Jiang glanced down for a moment, frowning, "The reason is to follow the higher-ups’ orders to replace the old with the new? To break away from old thinking, from Lu Zhaodi’s gender bias favoring males over females? So Jiu Hong is applying for divorce? To make a clear distinction from Lu Zhaodi."

"You’re not mistaken, that’s the reason!" Zheng Xuefeng said with a sneer. Although he and his wife and child were often separated, their relationship was very good. He admired Zhu Rong and Li Shuitian, even though their wives were exasperating, but Jiu Hong didn’t catch his eye, even though Jiu Hong was the deputy director of the political department.

After pondering for a while, Lu Jiang set down the divorce application, "I remember Jiu Hong’s sister-in-law is called Jiu Pendi, wasn’t it Jiu Hong who named her? His gender bias is obvious. How could he turn around and blame his wife for gender bias now?"
