This person was Li Aiping, who saw so many military wives going to give gifts to Gu Qingcheng.

Li Aiping was so jealous. Wasn’t it that Gu Qingcheng was just a little better at cooking and could cook some meals?

What's so great about that?

Who doesn’t know how to cook?

She just relied on her good luck and got to show her face in front of the political commissar, and she was really proud of it.

This political commissar is really something. He doesn’t seem to have seen much of the world. Even the food cooked by Gu Qingcheng is not good enough.

Li Aiping was extremely unbalanced, but Deputy Head Wei had repeatedly warned her to avoid provoking Gu Qingcheng during this period.

There was no other way, she could only worry and swallow her anger.

The military wives put the things they brought in order and didn't bother them any further.

Now that’s great. Gu Qingcheng had originally planned to buy some local specialties to bring back, but now he doesn’t need to go out at all.

Lu Shiyan smiled softly and said, "Wife, I am so lucky to marry you."

The two of them sorted out the things that everyone had sent over, but they didn't take things like sausages and bacon back with them, mainly because they were also available in Jiang City and weren't considered specialties.

They brought back some pickled fish and seafood, which are island specialties and are rare in Jiang City.

In total, I packed two large bags and two small handbags.

Gu Qingcheng originally thought that Lu Shiyan would not be able to carry so many things by herself, so she consciously put the handbag on her back.

Unexpectedly, the man moved very quickly and hung all four bags on himself without hesitation.

Carrying a large bag on his shoulders.

He carries two small bags in his right hand.

Carrying a big bag in the left hand.

Gu Qingcheng asked: "How about I take one? Can you carry it by yourself?"

Lu Shiyan frowned slightly: "No big deal."

As he spoke, he deliberately raised his arms upwards to demonstrate his masculine strength.

"What would I become if I asked my wife to get something?"

Gu Qingcheng swallowed.

This figure is really good.

Um.

You can eat it after some time.

…

To get from the island to Jiang City, you first have to take a boat for most of the day, and then take a green train for another two and a half days.

In short, it’s very troublesome to go back.

But fortunately, they didn't meet any bad people on the road, so they chatted when they were bored and enhanced their relationship.

When I’m hungry, I eat the fruits and snacks in my luggage.

Lu Shiyan knew that the journey was long, but he prepared a lot of snacks for fear that Gu Qingcheng would get hungry on the way.

The two chatted and laughed, and finally arrived in Jiang City on the afternoon of the third day.

As soon as he got out of the train station, Uncle Wang waved excitedly.

"Sir, I'm here!"

The two walked over, and Lu Shiyan introduced: "This is our family's driver, Uncle Wang. Uncle Wang has been taking me to and from school since I was a child."

As he said that, he turned around again and said, "Uncle Wang, please call me Xiao Shi as before."

Gu Qingcheng smiled politely: "Hello, Uncle Wang."

Uncle Wang was so happy in his heart. He had watched Lu Shiyan grow up since he was a child, and now he was finally going to start a family.

He quickly greeted the two people and said, "Let's go back quickly. The old man and the old lady are waiting at home!"

Lu Shiyan opened the car door and placed his bony fingers on Gu Qingcheng's head, protecting her as she got into the car.

It takes about an hour to get from the train station to the Lu family villa.

Lu Shiyan had already informed the Lu family of the news before he left for the army. At this time, Lu's father, Lu's mother, and the maids in the house were all looking forward to the return of the two children.

Finally, they saw their own car approaching, and they couldn't hide their excitement on their faces.

After Uncle Wang parked the car steadily, Mother Lu couldn't wait to jog over and asked with concern: "Qingcheng, are you tired from the long journey? Are you used to life on the island?"

Gu Qingcheng nodded slightly: "I'm used to it, Auntie. The journey was fine, I wasn't very tired, Shi Yan took good care of me."

Mother Lu then turned her gaze to Lu Shiyan: "You are still somewhat useful."

Lu Shiyan: ...

Mother Lu didn't care about his depression. She took Gu Qingcheng's hand and walked inside: "Qingcheng, let's go inside first. It's still quite hot outside. Otherwise, you will get tanned soon. For a beauty like you, it would be painful for Auntie if you get a little tanned."

Gu Qingcheng smiled and said, "Auntie, how can I be as delicate as you say?"

"Isn't it? You are the treasure of our family."

The family entered the house in a grand procession.

Mother Lu got straight to the point and said, "Qingcheng, Xiaoshi told us on the phone that you decided to get married when you came back this time."

"Your uncle and I thought of this. For the betrothal gift, we'll choose a lucky number, 9999, and then we'll buy you the four major items: a sewing machine, a watch, a radio, and a bicycle."

Father Lu also said, "And considering that you won't live with us after you get married, your mother and I have been looking at houses recently, thinking about buying a new house for you. You can choose the furniture for the house, and your mother and I will pay for it."

"And as for the wedding date, your father and I have been looking at dates recently."

"In recent times, only September 21st is acceptable."

When this was mentioned, Mother Lu became angry and glared at Lu Shiyan fiercely.

It's all this brat's fault for notifying us too late and giving such a short time. He said he only had 20 days of vacation in total, and it was really stressful to get all the details of the wedding done within these 20 days.

Fortunately, he married a good wife that suits his heart, otherwise she would have been so angry that she died.

Lu Shiyan noticed his mother's gaze and was a little confused.

However, Father Lu quickly held Mother Lu's hand and whispered a few words of comfort.

Mother Lu's mood was barely normal now, and she asked Gu Qingcheng in a gentle voice: "Qingcheng, do you think the date is okay?"

Gu Qingcheng didn't care too much about this and nodded.

The Lu family gave a particularly large amount of betrothal gift. Let alone 9999, even 999 was very high in that era, at least equivalent to several million in later generations.

Of course, Gu Qingcheng wouldn't say much about this, and his expression was the same as before, with a faint smile on his face.

People give you so much because they value you. If you act particularly surprised or happy, it would seem like you have never seen the world. Wouldn't that make people look down on you?

You know, she, Gu Qingcheng, once had 30 billion in her hands and could remain calm.

This scene needs to be handled well!

"Aunt, Uncle, you have thought very carefully about me and Shi Yan. I have no objection to the wedding date and the gift. As for the dowry, I have saved some money recently, so I can bring it with me when the time comes."
