Chapter 127 Round Iron Lump
As soon as Wu Weimin returned home, he closed the doors and windows and looked at Old Mrs. Wu with a serious expression.
"Mom, what's wrong with you? Can you just say whatever you want about a traitor? If you say something like that, even if it makes sense, it becomes nonsense!"
Old Mrs. Wu talks nonsense a lot, so why would she care about this? She looked at Wu Weimin's expression and felt a little relieved when she saw that he didn't seem to take Qiu's words seriously.
"I am anxious. Qiu Qiu is so young and yet she dares to throw dirty water on her family. How can I not teach her a lesson?"
Wu Weimin naturally didn't believe that it was Old Lady Wu who started it first. His mother loved her grandson more than anyone else, so how could she do such a thing?
But it was a fact that Wang Manzhi almost had a miscarriage, and he would never swallow this.
Nothing good has happened since Gu Qingye appeared, even his wife is a plague.
Seeing that Wu Weimin didn't say anything, Old Lady Wu grabbed his arm.
"Son, that wicked couple shouldn't have occupied the captain's position. If it weren't for them, our lives would be much more comfortable!"
Wu Weimin nodded: "Mom, don't worry about this matter, I have my own ideas."
The farce came suddenly and ended even more suddenly.
Lu Youyou had a lot of things to say but she didn't have time to say them, and in the blink of an eye she didn't even have the chance to express them.
She met Zheng Aimei for the first time today and gained a new understanding of Old Mrs. Wu's status in the Wu family.
She didn't even give face to the commander's wife. Although Zheng Aimei didn't necessarily take the old woman seriously, Mrs. Wu's attitude to a certain extent explained Commander Wu's attitude.
Without the indulgence of the head of the family, Old Mrs. Wu would not be so majestic.
In the past, she only knew that Wu Weimin was the commander's nephew. Now she realized how important the only male child was in the commander's heart.
The next day at noon, Gu Qingye led the team back. He worked without stopping and went home immediately after handing over the task.
"Are you okay?"
"How are you?"
They both spoke at the same time.
"I'm fine, how about you?"
"I'm fine too."
Gu Qingye wanted to say sorry, but he was not there when someone came to cause trouble.
Lu Youyou seemed to know what he was going to say: "Don't say sorry, this matter has nothing to do with you. A madman may go crazy at any time and anywhere. You can't just stare at him and do nothing."
Old lady Wu couldn't hurt her, and her verbal attacks were completely ineffective. Every time the old lady got mad and angry, it was always her who was hurt, and she was unharmed.
Gu Qingye, on the other hand, must be feeling very uncomfortable being caught between Wu Weimin and Commander Wu.
"Is your work going well?"
She knew that many things involved confidentiality regulations and never asked about his work.
But Dongzhou Island is not like Ancheng. The Wu family has been working here for many years. Gu Qingye is a newcomer and is the highly-anticipated captain of Niusi Zhange. He must be under a lot of pressure.
Gu Qingye smiled. He didn’t expect that this was what Lu Youyou was worried about.
"Very good, you don't believe in my ability?"
Lu Youyou immediately shook her head. Of course she believed it.
Gu Qingye said: "If they really have a way, the captain's position will not be in my hands. As for Wu Weimin, it is not easy to be the deputy captain. If he dares to drag his feet, he will be the first to suffer."
"You must be careful no matter what. Since he is a despicable person, you should not be afraid to assume the worst of him."
Gu Qingye was amused: "Okay, I'll keep Comrade Lu's teachings in mind."
Lu Youyou's face turned red. What could she, an amateur, teach?
The eldest lady was furious and her eyes fell fiercely on Gu Qingye's face: "I'm hungry, I want to eat dry pot crab and braised shrimp!"
Gu Qingye suppressed his lips and saluted: "Yes, sir."
Lu Youyou was smoking at the spot, and suddenly she smelled the aroma of braised shrimps coming from the kitchen, and her face became even hotter.
————
Gu Qingye said he would rest for two days. Excluding the impromptu training last night, he had spent less than a day at home.
He resumed his routine of going out early and coming back late, and Lu Youyou started to disappear all day again. She didn't even react when Gu Qingye said he wanted to go out to sea.
She seldom saw him when he was at home, and it seemed to make no difference whether he was at sea or not.
Most of the men in the family compound had left, leaving only the elderly, children, women and children. A few days later, Wang Manzhi, who had not been seen for a long time, also came back.
As she got older, she became thinner and thinner, as if she would fall over if the wind blew. Her matchstick-like body supported such a huge belly, which was terrifying to watch.
It was Zheng Aimei who sent her back, followed by her little tail Qiu Tian.
Wang Jinglian came to visit Lu Youyou and only started chirping softly after the commander's special car left.
"I hope their family can calm down a bit this time. My precious grandson can't stand the torture this time. I hope Old Mrs. Wu can't bear it for several months!"
Lu Youyou chuckled and said nothing.
If Mrs. Wu knew when to stop, her reputation wouldn't be so bad. We can only hope that her offspring's cancer is really that serious so that everyone can have some relief.
Xiaodong came running over, "Mom, is Qiu back? Can I ask her to come out and play?"
Wang Jinglian was shocked and quickly dissuaded her son from the idea.
"No, no, no, her mother is not in good health, Qiu Qiu has to stay at home with her mother, you guys can play by yourselves, it's best to go far away, don't disturb Qiu Qiu's mother to rest."
Wang Jinglian felt sorry for Qiu Tian, but she was scared enough of this family that she would rather spoil their fun than have anything to do with the Wu family.
Xiaodong pursed his lips and sighed in a very realistic way.
"Well, I also want to tell her that Zhuifeng has learned how to find milk candies. No matter who has milk candies hidden on them, Zhuifeng can find them."
Wang Jinglian was originally feeling sympathetic, and she couldn't stop laughing when she heard this. She waited until Xiaodong ran away before she started teasing him.
"Zhuifeng is really good at coaxing children, Xiaolu, when you and Captain Gu have a baby in the future, Zhuifeng will definitely be a good helper!"
What do you say?
Why did you jump to this topic so quickly?!
A picture appeared in Lu Youyou's mind almost uncontrollably -
She was holding a fat baby, sometimes handing it the bottle, sometimes the diaper, and when she got tired of holding the baby, the baby could help rock the cradle.
As for the child's father...
Lu Youyou shuddered. The scene was so beautiful that she didn't dare to look at it.
As luck would have it, Xiao Huihui also came back at this time, and Wang Jinglian had something to continue talking about.
"And Little Gray Gray, with it the child doesn't even need toys, some to sleep and some to play with, and the child won't cry. It's less of a worry to take care of the child if he doesn't cry or make a fuss."
Lu Youyou's head was buzzing and his eyes were almost unfocused when he looked at Xiao Huihui.
Little Huihui had no idea that it had become a stuffed toy to amuse children. It had expanded its patrol range a little over the past two days and accidentally discovered something valuable.
It couldn't wait to fly back and share the good news with Lu Youyou first.
Seeing Xiao Huihui slowing down, Lu Youyou subconsciously stretched out her arm. Before Xiao Huihui landed, her claws loosened and a round iron lump fell on her leg.
