Chapter 14 Gu Qingye is so rich? !
As soon as Lu Youyou got on the car, she was surrounded by gazes from all directions, some friendly, some just watching the fun. She really didn't have the energy to do so, so she greeted them politely and didn't say anything else.
It was Li Sanhua who took the initiative to arrange it: "This is Comrade Lu Youyou, she will also live in the family compound in the future. Let's get along well and help each other!"
She didn't know the details of the case, but it was certain that Lu Youyou was innocently implicated.
Li Sanhua took the lead in applauding. She was a veteran in the staff quarters and always had prestige, so everyone followed suit and applauded to welcome her.
Lu Youyou’s current image is not very good.
The clam oil and pot ash were still on her face, making her look dark and yellow. She hadn't changed her clothes, and although there was no peculiar smell, she looked like an ordinary woman who was exhausted from traveling. The key point was that she was not very good-looking.
Several military wives exchanged glances behind their backs.
A: Captain Gu looks talented, but his vision is not very good!
B: Apart from being young, how else can you compare to my cousin from my mother's side?
C: Hey, you know, if anyone knew that Captain Gu found someone like this, wouldn’t he be pissed to death?
Ding: Who said it wasn’t? Now it’s time to watch something interesting!
The truck sped along for about an hour and stopped at a camp at the foot of a mountain.
The security here was tight, and Lu Youyou had to run twice just to get off the car and register. Finally, the car stopped in front of a high wall, and we arrived at the family compound.
"Comrade Lu, Captain Gu has already applied for a house. You can go back and rest for a while. I will take you to the cafeteria at lunch time."
Li Sanhua carefully introduced the layout of the family compound to Lu Youyou.
"The military's procurement vehicle goes out once a week. If you want to go to the city, just wait at the gate of the courtyard at the designated time. There is a military service center for daily necessities, just outside the east gate. I'll show it to you later..."
Li Sanhua explained the details in detail as she was asked to do so. When she passed by her house, she even went in and took out a package for Lu Youyou.
"This is the money and tickets Captain Gu left for you. He left in a hurry and his family didn't have time to pack. Just go and buy whatever you want."
Lu Youyou squeezed the thick envelope and gained a new appreciation for Gu Qingye's attentiveness.
It’s okay, at least he is not an old man who just sits there with his hands up and doesn’t care about anything. Otherwise, although his life can be saved, the quality of service cannot be guaranteed.
"Thank you so much, Sister Li. I was completely in the dark about this. It's all thanks to you!"
Li Sanhua smiled: "It's not all thanks to me, it's all thanks to your Captain Gu's meticulousness!"
She joked, "You don't know, Captain Gu brought a gift to my house before he left, asking me to take good care of you. I've lived in the family compound for so many years, and this is the first time I've seen someone care so much about his wife!"
Even though Lu Youyou's face was covered in red like a tabby cat, it now showed a hint of red.
"Since he entrusted it to you, he must want me to learn more from you. I'm new here and I'm grateful for your care!"
Gu Qingye is so sincere, she has to give something back.
Being able to entrust a large sum of money and his future wife to someone else, it seems that Gu Qingye has a good relationship with the family of a battalion commander. Everyone wants to carry his fancy sedan, so it doesn't take much effort to say a few nice words to him.
Gu Qingye applied for the innermost yard in the second row, which was only three households away from Li Sanhua's house.
Li Sanhua pushed open the courtyard door and said, "I've simply cleaned the inside and outside, and the basic furniture is there, but it's not in order. How about I help you with it this afternoon after dinner?"
Lu Youyou quickly waved her hand: "Don't bother you, I just need to clean up the sleeping room first, and I can take care of the rest slowly, no rush."
Li Sanhua said enthusiastically: "Don't be embarrassed, it's about helping neighbors, everyone has gone through this!"
"No, no, I don't have much stuff. I just need to pack it up. I can deal with the rest after Gu Qingye comes back."
Li Sanhua covered her mouth and laughed: "Of course, your Captain Gu is very capable, he must be eager for you to order him around!"
What could Lu Youyou say? She could only lower her head shyly.
Damn it, Gu Qingye, she is so high-profile, has she ever considered how thick-skinned she is?
Li Sanhua handed the key to Lu Youyou and tried the lights in the house again: "The keys to the main door and the room door are here. The family quarters have electricity. Here, the switch is here."
"By the way, the water tank outside is also full. You can just use it directly." Li Sanhua pointed to the large water tank in the yard.
Lu Youyou widened her eyes. She really didn’t expect Li Sanhua to be so thoughtful, and hurriedly thanked her.
Li Sanhua waved her hand: "If you have nothing else, I'll go back first and come see you at lunch."
After seeing Li Sanhua off, the first thing Lu Youyou did was to lie down on the wooden sofa for a while. She was really exhausted after tossing and turning for a whole day and night.
Although the sofa was very hard, she didn't want to move at all. She just turned her neck to observe the room.
There are three rooms in the front, the main room in the middle, a small room on each side, and a separate kitchen in the yard.
The room was quite clean, with a cement floor, white walls, a table, chairs and a bed, but it was all bare, so it was estimated that Gu Qingye had never lived there.
Although the yard is not big, Lu Youyou is still satisfied with it, at least it has its own door and house.
His eyes turned around and returned to the front, just landing on the envelope.
Lu Youyou forced herself to stand up. The moment she stood up, her joints all over her body made noises. She moved to the table with a grin on her face, opened the envelope and saw -
There were twenty Great Unity bills, a small stack of change, and quite a few different kinds of tickets, including industrial tickets, cloth tickets, grain tickets, sugar tickets... everything you could think of.
Gu Qingye is so rich? !
It was also because Lu Youyou didn't know much about the army. The lowest-level platoon leader in the front-line troops only got a minimum salary of 50 yuan, not to mention that Gu Qingye also received subsidies when he went on missions. With his level, he would get at least over 100 yuan every month.
He left suddenly this time and did not have time to withdraw the money in his passbook. He had to collect change and bills from his comrades, and borrow the money from his superiors.
Who could have thought that the cold and rude soldier king would marry a woman like this!
Not only the people in the family compound were curious about Lu Youyou, but Gu Qingye's comrades were even more curious.
Especially the head of the group, Jiang Tong, who gave money to Gu Qingye while feeling very disappointed with him, but in the end he still earnestly told him to live a good life after getting married.
At noon, Li Sanhua arrived on time and saw Lu Youyou making the bed. She immediately took the sheets and helped.
It was summer now, and Lu Youyou was impatient to sleep on a thick mattress, so she just used the old bedding from the Youth League Home as a cushion.
"Sister, take a look at what you need at home and make a list first. I'll take you to the service center this afternoon and borrow a cart. You don't have to worry about buying too much."
Lu Youyou was bending over to stretch out the quilt, and upon hearing this, she said, "That's great, I just happen to want to buy a bed mat, as well as cups and basins and so on."
Li Sanhua listed all the treasures: "I want to buy a cool mat, but I'm here. Several villages nearby can make it. It's an old craft that has been passed down for many years. It's strong and durable. The army collects it regularly. The village has more income, and it's more convenient for us."
Li Sanhua knew that Lu Youyou was young and was afraid that she would find life here hard.
"We are a little bit out of the way here, but the logistics support is pretty good. Except for the fact that the men have to go on missions every few days, life is actually much more comfortable than back home!"
Lu Youyou stood up straight, and smiled with beautiful eyes and eyebrows.
"Yes, it's much more comfortable than my hometown."
