Chapter 165 Gu Meng

Secretary Jiang and Hu Shan spent the entire morning wiping down the corner table.

Secretary Jiang carefully placed the typewriter on the desk and took out a handkerchief from her pocket to carefully wipe it.

When Gu Yihan saw his actions, her eyes twitched involuntarily.

Secretary Jiang looked at Hu Shan with a serious expression and instructed her, "Officer Hu, the task of maintaining the typewriter is now entrusted to you."

"This is something our factory worked very hard to get, so we need to use it carefully."

Seeing how carefully the two women were handling the object, Minjie and Su Yonghong breathed much more softly.

After Secretary Jiang left.

As if they had planned it together, Sister Min and Su Yonghong stood up and walked over to examine the typewriter.

The two looked at the pinyin for a while, and Minjie whispered to Hushan, "There aren't enough pinyin characters, are there?"

Hu Shan couldn't help but chuckle. She patiently explained, "These are English letters, not pinyin."

Minjie realized she had made a fool of herself, gave an awkward laugh, and returned to her workstation.

Seeing Gu Yihan sitting with her head down reading the newspaper, Hu Shan smiled and asked, "Xiaohan, would you like to see the typewriter?"

Gu Yihan heard Hu Shan call her name, looked up at her, and smiled as she declined, "Sister Shan, thank you, but I won't watch it."

It's not like she hasn't seen things more advanced than a typewriter before. What seems strange to others is just an old relic to her.

...

When Grandma Gu heard the soldier guarding the gate say that a woman was looking for her at the gate of the family compound, she knew it was her granddaughter, Gu Meng.

She locked the gate to the small courtyard and walked straight towards the entrance of the family compound.

Upon seeing Grandma Gu, Gu Meng rushed forward, grabbed her sleeve, and choked out, "Grandma, you have to save me."

Grandma Gu pulled back her sleeve expressionlessly. What the hell? She came up here and asked me to save her.

He glared at Gu Meng and said irritably, "I can't help you. You have parents, you should ask them for help."

Gu Meng couldn't control the hatred in her eyes when she thought of Chen Xiu and Gu Aidang at home.

With red eyes, she looked at Grandma Gu and said, "Grandma, my dad wants to sell me and marry me off to an old bachelor."

She finally managed to get a letter of introduction through a lot of trickery, which allowed her to escape.

We must find a way to stay in Kunming, no matter what. At least here we have Grandma Gu and Gu Yihan to look after each other.

Upon hearing this, Grandma Gu frowned and asked in confusion, "Aren't you already married? Why are you being asked to get married again?"

When Gu Meng heard Grandma Gu's question, she thought of that spineless man who couldn't utter a single word even if you hit him with a stick.

Having witnessed Grandma Gu's good life, how could she possibly want to live with such a good-for-nothing?

Seeing Gu Meng's shifty eyes, Grandma Gu coldly questioned, "Is it you who wants to divorce her?"

Gu Meng was unhappy: "Grandma, after we went back from here last time, that man ignored me."

Grandma Gu was angry when she remembered the last time Gu Meng came to the family compound by herself. She thought her granddaughter had been spoiled.

"Don't mention last time. Didn't I tell you not to come looking for me again?"

Gu Meng was filled with resentment. Why could Gu Yihan take care of Grandma Gu but not her?

"Grandma, I'm not leaving Kuncheng this time. Please find me a place to stay."

Grandma Gu was so angry at Gu Meng's self-righteous words that she laughed.

"I'm not your grandma, and don't come looking for me."

After saying that, he walked directly towards the family compound.

Seeing that Grandma Gu really didn't care about her, Gu Meng got anxious and immediately stepped forward to grab her arm.

She cried out, "Grandma, you can't just enjoy your life and then abandon your granddaughter."

Grandma Gu wasn't going to be fooled. She sneered and said, "Give up on that idea. I know you too well. Who knows what kind of bad ideas you might have up your sleeve?"

Seeing that Grandma Gu was unmoved, Gu Meng stopped pretending: "I am Gu Yihan's sister, why should she not care about me?"

Grandma Gu glanced at Gu Meng and snorted coldly, "Xiao Han is not your sister. You've got the wrong person."

After saying that, he forcefully pulled his arm away and turned back to the family compound.

Gu Meng hurriedly followed, wanting to enter the family compound together, but was stopped by the guards at the gate.

"Why can she get in, but I can't?"

Gu Meng roared at the guards.

The two soldiers guarding the gate twitched their ears, straightened their bodies, and said expressionlessly, "Grandma Gu is a military family member."

Gu Meng was furious: "If she can be a military family member, then I am also a military family member. I am her granddaughter."

After saying that, she rushed in without a care, and the guard could only block her with his arm.

Gu Meng's eyes flashed and she crashed directly into the two guards.

The two guards awkwardly stopped Gu Meng. They were both worried that if they accidentally bumped into this woman, she would then try to take advantage of them.

When Battalion Commander Wen's wife, Wang Erya, returned from the city, she saw the hesitant and awkward soldiers guarding the gate.

He immediately stepped forward, grabbed Gu Meng's arm, and flung her away, looking at her sarcastically and saying, "Where did this crazy woman come from? So shameless, bumping into men like that."

The guard smiled at Battalion Commander Wen's wife, Wang Erya, to show his gratitude. Then, upon hearing her words, his face flushed red.

Gu Meng glared at Wang Erya: "Who are you? Why are you meddling in other people's business?"

Wang Erya comes from the countryside and is least afraid of arguing.

She looked Gu Meng up and down. Her gray clothes were faded from washing, and there was more than one patch on her knees.

He scoffed, "This is a military family compound. If you're sick, go to the hospital and see a doctor. Don't go crazy here."

Gu Meng glared at Wang Erya, gritting her teeth as she said, "I am Gu Yihan's older sister. If you offend me, she will not let you off the hook."

Wang Erya stared wide-eyed at Gu Meng in disbelief.

Gu Meng thought the other party was scared, so she raised her chin and gave Wang Erya a smug look.

Wang Erya turned to look at the soldier guarding the gate, her eyes full of doubt: "Where did this crazy woman come from? She must have lost her mind."

The two soldiers guarding the gate were extremely embarrassed. Grandma Gu didn't even acknowledge the woman; she must be someone she didn't know.

Gu Meng wanted to take advantage of the guards' inattention and quickly run into the family compound.

Battalion Commander Wen's wife, Wang Erya, quickly grabbed Gu Meng's arm and, without even looking, pushed her out.

Gu Meng stumbled after being pushed, but after regaining her balance, she roared at Wang Erya, "I am Gu Yihan..."

"Shut up already," Wang Erya interrupted impatiently.

"You're so ugly, how could you possibly be Gu Yihan's sister? You're probably a spy."

After saying that, she pointed to the waist of the guard and threatened, "They are qualified to kill spies on the spot."

Upon hearing this, Gu Meng looked towards the waist of the gatekeeper and her face instantly turned pale.

Her lips trembled as she said, "I really am Gu Yihan's older sister."

Battalion Commander Wen's wife, Wang Erya, saw that she was afraid.

He snorted coldly: "If just anyone ran into the military and claimed to be so-and-so's sister, wouldn't the family compound become a den of spies?"

After saying that, she walked straight past Gu Meng and returned to the family compound.
