Chapter 420 Mother is alive
Bai Mei's hand holding the edge of the bowl trembled, and tears gathered in her eyes again: "Yue Huai..."
"I have to go to work now and don't have time to comfort you. I'll go call my brother to wipe your tears." After drinking the rice porridge, Gu Yuehuai blinked and said in a teasing voice, then knocked on the door of the inner room.
Her voice was high-pitched and penetrating: "Get up! Breakfast is getting cold!"
"What's wrong? What's wrong?" Yan Shaoli, who was sleeping on the kang in the outer room, sat up suddenly in shock.
Bai Mei didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She went forward to hand her clothes and said, "It's okay, it's okay. You can sleep a little longer if you want."
Yan Shaoli breathed a sigh of relief, threw himself back into the bed, wrapped his shoulders, and fell asleep again.
There was also a commotion in the inner room. Gu Tinghuai was indeed the first to open the door. He rubbed his eyes and said with a wry smile, "Nannan, you almost scared my heart out. What happened?"
Gu Yuehuai waved his hand: "No, I just have to go to work. I thought I would remind my brother that today don't forget to go to the county to ask about the materials for building the house. I will bring the drawings back when I come back in the evening."
Gu Tinghuai breathed a sigh of relief and nodded, "Okay, don't worry, I'll order the materials today."
Gu Yuehuai walked out the door after he finished speaking. Bai Mei took off her apron, picked up her bag and put it on her shoulder. She said to Gu Tinghuai, "Yuehuai and I are going to work together. The rice is in the pot. Please heat it up for Dad when he gets up."
After saying this, Bai Mei chased after Gu Yuehuai and ran away.
Gu Tinghuai smiled and shook his head. A new day had begun. Today he had to prepare to build a house. The family would be busy. When he thought about it carefully, life at home was getting better day by day.

"Yuehuai, wait for me!" Bai Mei chased after him and shouted twice.
Gu Yuehuai turned around and looked at her, slightly surprised: "The hospital has reopened?"
Bai Mei nodded: "The hospital is very busy, how can it be closed for such a long time? It's just a pity for Zhang Yue'er. The final result was ruled as suicide, not a murder of passion. A good girl died in such an unclear way."
Gu Yuehuai remained silent. The person who died in unclear reasons in the previous life was Bai Mei.
Huang Sheng was arrested, and with Li Erxin as the person involved, it was a foregone conclusion that he had committed murder. However, after Li Erxin was rescued by her, the Huang family only needed to make a little effort to turn it into attempted murder, saving a few years in prison, or even finding a substitute.
This is the privilege that power gives to people. This kind of thing may happen in ten or twenty years, not to mention now when the law is not yet perfect? Of course, even if Huang Sheng can escape, he probably won't come to the Dalaozi Production Brigade again.
Keeping such a malignant tumor makes people feel uneasy.
Gu Yuehuai narrowed her eyes slightly. Huang Sheng was captured, and she could no longer contact him. What a pity.
The two of them soon arrived at Huangying Commune and then separated.
Although only a few days had passed, she still felt a sense of strangeness when she returned to Mass Daily. However, the passionate Wan Qinglan quickly extinguished her strangeness: "Yuehuai, Yuehuai, you are finally here! I missed you so much!"
Wan Qinglan hugged Gu Yuehuai tightly, her face flushed with excitement.
Gu Yuehuai patted her back gently: "I'm back and I brought you a gift."
"Gift?" Wan Qinglan's eyes lit up.
Gu Yuehuai smiled and took out a beautiful notebook from his bag. When Wan Qinglan saw it, she quickly hugged it in her arms, looking very happy: "Thank you, Yuehuai, that's great! I like it so much!"
"I'm glad you like it. I'll go to the editor-in-chief's office."
Seeing Gu Yuehuai go to Wei Luo's office, Wan Qinglan blinked, and suddenly looked at Huang Binbin nervously: "You say, Yuehuai doesn't want to do this anymore, and is going to resign directly?"
Thinking of this, Wan Qinglan suddenly felt that the notebook in his arms was no longer fragrant, and his expression became lonely.
Huang Binbin looked at her and comforted her, "Don't scare yourself. Now that Yue Huai is back, she will definitely not resign in the short term. However, she is a person with her own ideas, so she probably won't stay here for too long."
Wan Qinglan's face fell, and he glared at Huang Binbin unhappily: "You really know how to throw cold water on me."
Huang Binbin laughed and reached out to touch Wan Qinglan's head: "I'm afraid that you are expecting too much and will be disappointed in the end."
"I know, I know. What are you doing? There are so many people here!"
Wan Qinglan slapped Huang Binbin's hand away and looked around in panic, afraid that others would see their little movements. Her face flushed with shame. From her posture, one could tell there was something ambiguous between the two.
Huang Binbin chuckled and said confidently, "What's wrong with me touching my partner's head?"
"Hey, I told you to stop talking, why are you doing that?" Wan Qinglan was a little annoyed. She held up the letter paper to block Huang Binbin's gaze, but she was thinking in her heart, why didn't I know that Huang Binbin was so thick-skinned before?
On the other side, Gu Yuehuai went to Wei Luo's office.
She looked at Li Xiangqian sitting on the sofa and was a little surprised. Every time she came to the editor-in-chief's place, she would always meet some people.
Li Xiangqian was obviously also startled, and then a thoughtful look appeared on his face. After a while, he pointed at Gu Yuehuai and smiled: "I remember you! You are the female comrade who stood there and talked with Lao Cheng when we went to night school last time!"
The last time he was standing at the door, he saw Cheng Ling talking to someone from a distance. Her attitude was not ordinary, so he took a few more glances. This one look was amazing. Such a beautiful girl, there is probably no other like her in the entire Huangying Commune.
Gu Yuehuai nodded slightly: "Hello, Teacher Li, my name is Gu Yuehuai."
Li Xiangqian smiled and said, "Hello, Comrade Gu. I didn't expect you to work at Mass Daily."
Wei Luo glanced at the two of them, and then said to Gu Yuehuai in a somewhat unpleasant tone: "You finally came back. You haven't been around for such a long time, I thought you didn't even send me your resignation letter and simply didn't come."
Gu Yuehuai coughed lightly and said righteously: "What is the editor-in-chief thinking? Am I that kind of person?"
Wei Luo chuckled and rolled his eyes at Gu Yuehuai: "Come on."
Li Xiangqian watched the two of them interacting with a strange look on his face.
As far as he could remember, his mother had always been a thin character. She was very busy and always had no time to cook for him. She would only criticize him harshly when he made mistakes. Over time, he was unwilling to stay with her more.
Later, when his parents divorced, he became taciturn. When he had the chance to go to Hong Kong, he seldom came back.
He always thought that his mother Wei Luo was a resolute, courageous woman who was more powerful than men and was strict with everyone. But today he saw clearly that this was not the case. She would also show such lively expressions to her subordinates.
Li Xiangqian looked dazed, feeling indescribably complicated.
