Chapter 251 Preparations before departure
Gu Zhifeng opened up and spoke out her true feelings, feeling very happy: "Shao Yu, pour me a glass of water."
Yan Shaoyu nodded, stood up, picked up the thermos, poured a glass of water, and handed it to Gu Zhifeng.
The atmosphere between the father-in-law and son-in-law was warm. Gu Zhifeng was happily preparing to eat dinner. He took a sip of hot water to rinse his mouth, and suddenly heard Yan Shaoyu say, "Uncle Gu, I will leave the Dalaozi Production Brigade in the next two days to join the army."
"Puff——" Gu Zhifeng couldn't hold it in, and all the water in his mouth sprayed out.
He looked up at Yan Shaoyu blankly, as if he didn't hear clearly, and scratched his ears: "What did you say? Say it again?"
Yan Shaoyu was silent for a moment, then said, "Uncle Gu, I have been in the army with my father since I was a child. It is the place I am most familiar with. This is not only my ideal, but I will also go there just to take good care of Yue Huai in the future."
Gu Zhifeng stopped talking and looked at Yan Shaoyu with a serious look.
Yan Shaoyu didn't avoid looking at him. He knew that telling this would make Gu Zhifeng furious, but he couldn't wait until he left before letting Gu Yuehuai tell him. If he did that, what would be the difference between him and a coward? How would he face Gu Zhifeng in the future?
For both public and private reasons, and for both emotional and logical reasons, he has to leave. Instead of letting others speak, it is better for him to speak.
Gu Zhifeng remained silent for a long time. After a while, he asked, "Does Nannan know about this?"
Yan Shaoyu nodded: "I have already told her."
Gu Zhifeng choked. This girl, her new boyfriend is about to run away but she is still hiding him. It takes many years to serve in the army. It's unknown when he will come back. Is she just waiting like this? What is this?
He held his anger in for a long time and wanted to scold Yan Shaoyu, but he felt that the matter was hard to explain and it was not his fault.
Joining the army is indeed a way out. The state treatment is good and the monthly allowance is also a considerable figure. Men don't want to waste their glorious years in the fields, so it's a good thing to have the idea of going out and trying their luck.
Gu Zhifeng kept convincing herself, and after a while, she sighed, "Forget it, Nannan didn't say anything, so what can I do? She is a stubborn child, and she will definitely not let go if she sets her eyes on you."
Yan Shaoyu pursed his lips slightly, lowered his eyes, and a hint of warmth flashed across his peach blossom eyes.
Gu Zhifeng slurped her wonton noodles and said incoherently, "Okay, go up. Nannan will probably come down soon. She will definitely think I'm trying to make things difficult for you. Don't talk nonsense, okay?"
Yan Shaoyu smiled in silence, and suddenly felt a little strange. Why could a person like Gu Zhifeng teach Gu Yuehuai to have such a strong character who dared to love and hate? Thinking of how she killed Tian Jing without hesitation in the mountains, it became even more strange.
Given her personality, why would she do this if there wasn't some deep hatred?
Thinking of this, Yan Shaoyu pondered and said, "Uncle Gu, what exactly happened between Yue Huai and Tian Jing?"
Gu Zhifeng was stunned: "What do you mean? Tian Jing is the daughter of a neighbor next to our house. They had a good relationship when they were young, but I don't know how it turned out like this. Speaking of it, I also find it a little weird."
He frowned, thinking about what had happened in the past two months, and felt that everything had changed dramatically from before.
After a while, he shook his head: "You still have to ask Nannan for the specific reason. There are many aspects to the conflict between the two of them. By the way, how about you going to the police station to report the case? Did the police file a case? Will they investigate Tian Jing?"
Yan Shaoyu's eyes were thoughtful. He nodded and said, "The police will put this matter on the agenda."
"That's good, that's good. Tian Jing tried to harm our daughter, so she deserves to go to jail!" Gu Zhifeng was angry when he talked about this. If it weren't for Tian Jing, would his daughter have suffered so much in the mountains? And she almost couldn't come back?
Yan Shaoyu nodded and said, "Uncle Gu, you eat. I'll go back to see Yue Huai and Shao Yang."
Gu Zhifeng waved her hand and watched him leave the ward.
He shook his head with a wry smile and started to eat noodles in big mouthfuls. His children and grandchildren have their own blessings. There is not much he can do. However, as long as his daughter is happy and can live happily in the future, he will be satisfied.

When Yan Shaoyu returned to Yan Shaoyang's ward, Gu Yuehuai was about to go back.
Seeing Yan Shaoyu, Gu Yuehuai, who was originally anxious, breathed a sigh of relief. He looked him up and down a few times, and made sure that he was not beaten up. Then he said a little embarrassedly: "Shaoyu! Are you okay? My dad didn't make things difficult for you, did he?"
She knew Gu Zhifeng's temper and was afraid that he would hit someone.
In this relationship, she has always been the active one. Yan Shaoyu is really too innocent. If she really gets beaten for this, she will probably be heartbroken for several days.
Yan Shaoyu laughed, his narrow ebony eyes reflecting Gu Yuehuai's figure. He smiled and shook his head, "How could that be?"
Gu Yuehuai let out a long sigh and said softly, "That's good. I feel relieved then."
Gu Xihuai on the side laughed and said in confusion: "Gu Yuehuai, you are really becoming more and more partial. Shaoyu, I really want to ask you, how did you control her? She was not like this before!"
Gu Yuehuai turned around and glanced at him, his eyes curved with laughter: "I don't want to listen to you, you bastard."
After that, she looked at Yan Shaoyu and said, "Okay, I have to go back. Shaoli and Shaotang are still waiting at home."
Yan Shaoyu hummed lightly: "I'll take you out."
Gu Yuehuai waved his hand, walked out of the ward, and said, "No need, Shaoyang hasn't eaten yet, you feed him first, I can walk by myself, it's not dark outside yet."
Yan Shaoyu didn't say anything else, just nodded and watched her go away.
Gu Yuehuai left the hospital carrying a basket. It was dusk and sunset, and she did not stop a bullock cart. She quickened her pace and walked towards the Dalaozi Production Brigade. She planned to go to the educated youth site after returning to see if Wang Ziyan and the others had been settled.
Walking on the road, Gu Yuehuai began to think carefully.
Yan Shaoyu was about to leave. Not only was the journey exhausting, but the conditions in the army were also very difficult. She had to think of a way to bring him some portable and nutritious food, as well as space well water, and also...
She walked and thought very quickly, and when it was just getting dark, she returned to the team.
The kerosene lamps had just been lit at the educated youth center. However, the educated youth were still accompanying Huang Sheng in the hospital, and few of them had returned. She went to the dormitory of the female educated youth, where Wang Ziyan, Jin Can and Lan Tian were all there.
"Sister Gu!" As soon as Wang Ziyan saw Gu Yuehuai, she couldn't hide the smile on her face.
The conditions at the educated youth site in the Dalaozi Production Brigade were not good, but compared with the Liuzhi Brigade, it was a world of difference. At least the psychological pressure was not that great and people could relax.
Jin Can also called out to Gu Yuehuai with a smile, his tone full of gratitude.
Gu Yuehuai smiled and said, "Is everything packed? How's Lei Yi doing?"
Wang Ziyan smiled and said, "That guy is smooth, there's no need to worry, don't worry, Sister Gu."
Gu Yuehuai nodded and said, "It's getting late. I'll go back and cook first. You can come together later. When the meal is ready, I'll ask Shao Li to pick you up."
After saying this, he left with the basket without waiting for Wang Ziyan and the others to refuse.
