Chapter 91 Zhu Rongrong is here
Gu Yuehuai originally wanted to say a few words to help Gu Xihuai, but when he thought about how his family had gone through so much in his previous life and yet he was still admitted to a good university, he remained silent. Any laborer has to go to work, which is the inevitable norm nowadays.
She didn't say anything else, washed up and went back to her room.
As soon as you enter the Sumeru space, the smell of rice and wheat intertwined in the air fills your nostrils.
Gu Yuehuai took a deep breath of fresh air, but it triggered a stinging pain in her neck. She pulled the corners of her lips, drew some well water and applied it to her neck, which indeed relieved the pain.
She let out a sigh, stood up and went to the edge of the field to pick up rice ears.
The golden, heavy rice is bent, and the branches of rice ears are dotted with golden grains, like gold all over the ground.
Gu Yuehuai sniffed the rice fragrance again and felt much happier.
She picked the rice, sowed it again, and then went to the meadow to collect eggs without fail.
After finishing his work in the space, Gu Yuehuai packed some dates, eggs and peppers into a basket, preparing to go to He Lanzhang's appointment at the state-owned restaurant tomorrow.
I went to work in the morning and rushed to the state-owned restaurant in Huangying Commune at noon.
With a plan in mind, Gu Yuehuai left the space, lay on the bed with his clothes on, and carefully thought about what happened today. Suddenly, he remembered that Tian Jing had returned to the Dalaozi Production Brigade early, and he didn't know how Ren Tianxiang would act.
However, Ren Tianxiang is a deadbeat. He must have set his eyes on Tian Jing's money and will not give up until he achieves his goal.
Compared with Tian Jing, the Gu family's treasure was more enviable, but he had no chance to look for it, so everything was in vain.
Gu Yuehuai closed her eyes and put Gu Ruihuai out of her mind. Some things could not be done just by wanting to. The fate of her second brother in this life could only be controlled by himself or Tian Jing.

The next day, Gu Yuehuai took Yan Shaotang to the breeding place early in the morning.
She got into the intensive painting task. The continuous accidents during this period made her realize that she could no longer waste time in the breeding area, and she needed to complete the wall painting as soon as possible.
If she could get a job through this, that would be great, but if not, she would need to find another way.
The morning passed quickly. Apart from Wang Peisheng coming over with a guilty look on his face to apologize to her again, nothing else happened. In order to avoid suspicion, he also called the branch secretary Wang Fu along. The embarrassment of the process is beyond the imagination of outsiders.
Gu Yuehuai didn't care and just took a leave.
She has been asking for leave frequently these past few days. If she were to work in the factory, she would be at risk of being fired soon. But everyone is in the team, and they know that her family has been busy recently because of Gu Ruihuai's matter, so they can understand.
Moreover, she works hard and does a good job, and this job is irreplaceable, so Wang Fu didn't say anything.
After taking leave smoothly, Gu Yuehuai went to the commune with a basket and Yan Shaotang in his arms after noon.
Why bring Yan Shaotang? Of course, he wanted a reason to reject He Lanzhang.
My fiancé's sister.
Gu Yuehuai held Yan Shaotang in his arms, walking and stopping, and after a long time they finally arrived at the state-owned hotel in Huangying Commune.
He Lanzhang was standing at the door, occasionally looking at his watch, sometimes looking into the distance, a little anxious, as if he was worried that she would not come, or that something had happened. However, when he saw Gu Yuehuai appear holding Yan Shaotang, all his joy turned into joy.
"Comrade Gu!" He trotted over to meet him. He was not surprised to see Yan Shaotang. He just said, "Is this your sister? What a pretty little sister. Here, brother will give you some candy."
As he spoke, He Lanzhang took out two White Rabbit milk candies from his pocket.
Gu Yuehuai looked at him in surprise. A grown man, pretending to be sweet when he goes out?
He Lanzhang felt a little embarrassed by her gaze. He looked at her a little stiffly and explained in a low voice: "I... I prefer sweets."
Gu Yuehuai laughed and said, "Come in, it's my treat today, don't fight with me."
She still had some food coupons on her, although not much, but enough for a meal at a state-owned restaurant.
He Lanzhang smiled but said nothing. The two of them went in, found a seat and sat down. They ordered a few dishes written on the blackboard. Before they could even sit down, Gu Yuehuai took out the money and handed it to He Lanzhang.
He Lanzhang paused. He originally wanted to say something else, but seeing Gu Yuehuai's persistence, he could only smile bitterly and take out the IOU from his pocket.
There were obvious wrinkles on the IOU, showing that the owner often looked through it. When he handed it to Gu Yuehuai, he seemed reluctant to part with it. He didn't even count the money and just casually put it in his coat pocket.
He smiled and teased, "This is a huge sum of money for me, so don't argue with me when we settle the bill later."
Gu Yuehuai smiled, raised his hand and touched Yan Shaotang's head. Just as he was about to reintroduce him, a shadow suddenly covered him, followed by an angry voice with a tearful tone: "Who are you? Why are you having dinner with Comrade He?!"
Gu Yuehuai's eyebrows twitched slightly, and he blocked Yan Shaotang behind him without leaving a trace, and looked up at the person who came.
When I saw this, I was stunned for a moment.
She knew this man; they had met once before. He was also the "destined person" for her first business deal. She bought him the pair of white mesh shoes with trumpet creepers painted on them. Now, she was wearing those shoes.
If she remembered correctly, her name was Zhu Rongrong and she lived in the compound of the County Revolutionary Committee.
Gu Yuehuai is not a fool. Thinking back to what Zhu Rongrong had just said, he knew what was going on.
She turned her head to look at He Lanzhang, but saw that he looked a little unhappy and said, "Comrade Zhu, Comrade Gu is my friend, not your prisoner. Besides, do I need to report to you who I eat with?"
Zhu Rongrong's expression changed. She looked at He Lanzhang in disbelief: "What did you say? Say it again?"
He Lanzhang closed his eyes and spoke in a deeper voice: "Comrade Zhu, stop making trouble. If you want to eat, just eat well and don't disturb us."
Zhu Rongrong was so angry that she wanted to throw a tantrum, but seeing He Lanzhang's ruthless look, she couldn't help but shed tears and choked up, "Bothering? Do you think I'm disturbing you? He Lanzhang, didn't you say you wanted to marry me?"
He Lanzhang stood up suddenly, his face livid as he asked, "When did I ever say I wanted to marry you? This was just something my brother and your father said verbally. Did I ever agree to it?"
Zhu Rongrong paused and stammered, "You...if you don't agree, why did you come to my house for dinner? How could you not like me? Aren't you afraid that my dad will be angry? He Lanzhang! Think about it carefully!"
After saying that, Zhu Rongrong felt a little regretful. She came here today to make amends, not to anger He Lanzhang.
She pursed her lips and forced a smile on her chubby face: "He... Comrade He, I'm sorry, I said something that didn't belong to me, but you can't deny this matter if you want to. Brother Hongzhang has already said that you will definitely marry me."
He Lanzhang said coldly: "He said he would marry you. If you want to marry into the He family, marry He Hongzhang."
After saying that, He Lanzhang sat down again very calmly and smiled apologetically at Gu Yuehuai.
Gu Yuehuai had never expected that eating a meal could cause problems. However, she had never thought that Zhu Rongrong and He Lanzhang had this kind of relationship. Besides, wasn't there a saying about marriages between people of equal social status in the 1970s?
