Chapter 88 Unkindness
Song Youyou had no idea that so many people were going to look for her.
She sent the man to the hospital, and after the doctor confirmed that the old man was fine, she said goodbye.
Of course, she left her name and address before she died.
Although I don’t know the old man’s identity, judging from Song Baozhu’s eager attitude, it will definitely be beneficial.
She is not the kind of kind person who never forgets to repay a favor.
She dared to say that if she had not learned pharmacology and handled the situation properly, if Song Baozhu had been in charge, the old man who had suffered a sudden heart attack would probably have died.
Therefore, she deserves to be this benefactor.
After Song Youyou came out of the hospital, she went to the black market again.
On the one hand, she wanted to thank the tall friend who had restrained Song Baozhu for a day; on the other hand, the pig farm had been bought, and Lao Wu asked her to come over to discuss it together.
Because the discussion took a long time and was delayed, it was already late when we returned.
When she got home, Gu Wanqing had already prepared the meal.
"Youyou, you're finally back. Grandma missed you so much!"
Song Youyou has been cooking almost all the dinners these days. Old Mrs. Gu has developed a picky appetite. Every time she sees his son cooking, she feels terrible.
"Well, let's eat." Gu Fengnian also sighed.
Song Youyou hadn't reacted yet and didn't know why the old man looked so tragic.
Then, when she sat at the dinner table and looked at the vegetables and meat with strange colors, she realized belatedly that her husband seemed to have complained about Gu's father's cooking skills.
After taking a bite of the food with chopsticks, Song Youyou didn't dare to say anything. The taste...well, it was really unpalatable. But the taste was so weird that I didn't know how to describe it.
Even the rice for food was not cooked like porridge or rice.
However, this rice is the best thing in this dinner. Although the taste is a bit strange, at least it tastes normal, which is the taste of rice and water.
Song Youyou finally understood the true meaning of what Mrs. Gu had complained about before: "It was your cooking skills that started it all."
For a moment, the dinner table was silent, and everyone swallowed the food in their mouths silently.
Gu Wanqing looked at everyone's expressions and didn't dare to speak. He was afraid that if he spoke, it would break the peaceful atmosphere and cause them to go from silently enduring to ruthlessly complaining.
After a silent dinner, Gu Wanqing coughed and finally dared to make a sound.
"Now that we're done eating, I have something to say. Let's have a small meeting."
"What's the serious matter?" Although the old man was surprised, he still became serious.
Although they sometimes say they dislike their son, when it comes to serious matters, they still respect their son's decision.
Song Youyou also sat upright in her seat, but with a correct attitude.
Gu Wanqing then cleared his throat and began to talk about the matter.
"Today, something happened to the son of one of my officials. He quit his job not long ago and has been doing nothing but hanging around on the streets, playing with cats and dogs. One day, he got into an argument on the street and was stabbed and killed."
"Stabbing someone in the street? There is such a thing? What a bastard! A spear should be stabbed at the enemy, how can it be stabbed at fellow soldiers?!" Gu Fengnian cursed angrily.
Old Madam Gu also commented with a sullen face, "It's true that there are always invincible weapons in every era. We should have thrown that stabbed person back where we were fighting and see how many invaders he could stab!"
"Dad, Mom, I'm telling you this today, the point is not to judge this person."
"What is that?"
"This incident started because the child quit his job and didn't go to work. It's obvious that young people can't do without work. So I wonder if I should find a job for Youyou?"
"About this matter... My attitude towards this matter has always been the same, that is, it depends on Youyou's own wishes. If she wants to go, she can go. If she doesn't want to go, she doesn't have to go." Old Mrs. Gu expressed her opinion.
Old man Gu next to him just nodded, obviously on the same side as his wife.
"Youyou, what do you think?" Gu Wanqing asked.
"Dad, I told you before that I have a job as a translator at Xinhua Bookstore."
"Yes, that's right. When I went to the Youth League Office with my old man, I seemed to have heard something about my grandson's wife working for the Xinhua Bookstore."
"How can that be considered a serious job? Didn't you see that she didn't even have to go to work? That job probably wasn't even temporary."
Gu Wanqing frowned, looking a little serious.
"Youyou, maybe you young people will think I'm old-fashioned and preachy, but I still insist.
Moreover, someone mentioned this to me these past few days, saying that they saw you squatting on Tongluo Street with others several times when they passed by. It was really..." inappropriate.
Although Father Gu was a little angry, he still held back and didn't say these words out loud. He just concluded lightly:
"In short, wandering around the streets is never a good thing."
Song Youyou understood.
It turned out that she was seen by someone while she was squatting on the street, and they probably gossiped about her behind her back. No wonder Father Gu was angry.
Before they could figure out how to explain, they heard the engine of a car and stopped in front of their house.
This attracted everyone's attention and made them look towards the door.
This is a military compound, and anyone who comes here has to report to the guards.
The car can drive in directly, either it is one of our own who has returned, or... it is the license plate number of a high-ranking official who is in a high position and is exempt from inspection.
The Gu family members looked at each other, and Gu Wanqing, the head of the family, immediately spoke:
"Let's go out and take a look."
As they approached the door, the back door of the car happened to be opened.
A pair of shiny black leather shoes came out first, and then a middle-aged man in formal clothes and sleek hair got out of the car.
Gu Wanqing's face suddenly darkened:
"Wei Yuan? What are you doing here?"
Wei Yuan?
Although it was the first time that Song Youyou met this person, the name was still well-known to her.
If it wasn't for his given name and surname, then this person should be one of the four people in the group with extremely "leftist" thoughts, who stirred up the bloody storm during the special period, a notorious person.
However, judging by the timeline, this is still the end of his omnipotent rule.
Then why did he come to their house yesterday?
"What am I here for? Of course I'm here to settle a score."
As soon as he finished speaking, another person came out from behind the car, Wei Changsheng.
Seeing Wei Changsheng coming out, Song Youyou's eyes turned cold.
It seemed that Tian was coming for her.
Moreover, the coming one is not a good one.
