Chapter 8: Various kinds of misery
Gu Shuchen has been furious these days.
"No organization or individual may defame or denigrate the honor of military personnel in any way, or insult or slander the reputation of military personnel..."
Gu Qingye’s words played in his mind on a loop. Before leaving, his good brother actually said that he had already filed a marriage report and that Lu Youyou would be a military dependent in the future, so he asked him to think carefully before doing anything.
He had a dream two days ago. Everything in the dream was as he wished, but in reality, everything was the opposite of what he had dreamed.
Gu Shuchen endured for several days, waiting to see how Lu Youyou would behave as a military dependent. However, more than ten days passed and there was no news at all.
He didn't want to endure it anymore. He couldn't sleep until he figured out some things.
When Gu Shuchen approached, Lu Youyou couldn't help but let out a sigh.
With sunken eyes and droopy eye bags, even she, a half-baked doctor, could tell that the man suffered from yang deficiency and kidney deficiency, and lack of vital energy.
He has become more emaciated after not seeing him for a few days. Can his illness really be cured?
How huge is Gu Qingye’s pension, or is there really a miracle doctor in this world?
If her grandfather were here, there might be hope, but judging from Lu Youyou's unprofessional opinion, it's a bit difficult.
"Lu Youyou, have you been hooking up with Gu Qingye all along? You've got me fooled around, you fickle slut!"
Lu Youyou picked up a dry branch and threw it at Gu Shuchen, hitting him right between his two rows of teeth, blocking his stinky mouth that was spewing shit.
"I'm warning you, I didn't cause any trouble because I was giving your family face. Don't push your luck!"
Lu Youyou just wanted to leave this place as soon as possible and leave these meaningless scum behind.
After all, she is Gu Qingye's direct relative. If something really happens to her, it might affect the direction of his life, and naturally it would also affect her ability to complete the task.
Gu Shuchen was terrified, fearing that Lu Youyou would know about his ugly deeds.
"Why save face? What do you know?"
People with secrets are like frightened birds. A random word from others can hurt their sensitive hearts.
Lu Youyou sneered: "I'll go my way and you go your way. Isn't that good? Or do you have some secret you're afraid I'll know?"
"What secrets do I have?! You're dating me and then you hook up with my brother. You're the one who's afraid of people finding out!"
Gu Shuchen denied it immediately, saying that his inhumanity was his deepest pain.
Lu Youyou really wanted to publish a complete list of Chinese swear words, but hesitated for a second.
The main reason was that she didn’t know when she could leave, and she didn’t want to cause any trouble.
Maybe God also likes to watch the fun, and thought the show by two people was not exciting enough, so he sent another one.
"Lu Zhiqing, why are you here?"
Sun Pan'er stared at Lu Youyou as if she were a class enemy. If it weren't for her image, she would have wanted to pull Gu Shuchen away from this dangerous woman.
Lu Youyou said before that she had nothing to do with Gu Shuchen. She secretly observed him for a while and it seemed that they really had no contact.
I just relaxed for a day today, how come these two got together again!
Sun Paner was afraid that Gu Shuchen would be deceived by a vixen, so she pretended to speak casually.
"Comrade Gu Shuchen, I saw your elder brother sending Comrade Lu back to the Youth Hostel that day. Were they dating?"
Gu Shuchen seemed to have heard something dirty, and his eyes were bloodshot.
Someone helped him recall the scene that had tortured him for so long!
Dating, huh, Lu Youyou is dating his elder brother!
Sun Pan'er was startled by Gu Shuchen's gaze, thinking that he just knew about it now, so she immediately added fuel to the fire.
"I saw Comrade Gu and Comrade Lu chatted for a long time that day..."
Sun Paner was afraid that she had not poured enough oil, so she continued speaking in a pinched voice.
"Any relationship that is not aimed at marriage is just hooliganism. Comrade Lu, I should be able to hear good news from you soon, right?"
Lu Youyou couldn't bear to look at Gu Shuchen's expression and tried hard to hold back her laughter.
You're stabbing me left and right, sister, are you chasing a man or making an enemy?
Gu Shuchen really couldn't stand it anymore and didn't even want to mock Lu Youyou anymore.
After her lover left, Sun Paner's voice returned to normal.
"Didn't you say you didn't like it? What's the point of this?"
"I don't like it, and I really want to get married, so you don't have to put your eyes on me."
Regardless of Sun Paner's shock, Lu Youyou turned around and left.
She touched the letter of guarantee in her lapel again, and felt her ribs.
My goodness, she lost weight because of worry!
Lu Youyou's words failed to dispel Sun Paner's worries.
She began to appear inadvertently at the gathering places of gossips in the village, and confirmed the fact that Lu Youyou had a partner as soon as possible.
Soon, Lu Youyou's love life became the hottest topic in Qiaoshan Village.
The opening line of conversation among aunts and sisters has changed from "Have you eaten?" to "Have you heard?"
Some say that Gu Lao Da and Lu Zhiqing fell in love at first sight, while others say that the two families already had a tacit understanding and were just waiting for Gu Qingye to come back to get engaged. Otherwise, why would the Gu family be so nice to Lu Zhiqing?
As for the suspicion that Lu Zhiqing and the second son of the Gu family were close before? It was rare for Gu Qingye to come back, so it was not impossible for him to marry on his brother's behalf.
Lu Youyou was overjoyed after hearing this and really wanted to give Sun Paner the title of "Love Security Guard".
Are rumors scary?
Lu Youyou wished that everyone knew that she and Gu Qingye were getting married, but she couldn't announce it herself, so Sun Paner was so thoughtful to do it for her.
The more people know about it, the more cautious the Gu family becomes. Their eldest son is getting married, but the Gu family hasn't released any news at all. Who knows what they are planning?
Lu Youyou had a shy and timid face. Whenever anyone asked her anything, she would lower her head and blush, then say "hmm" softly.
The gossips' gluttony was instantly appeased.
Look at how knowledgeable and interesting Lu Zhiqing is. Unlike the woman from the team leader's family, she always has a sullen face when asked. We are not trying to steal the bride, so why doesn't anyone even want to hear congratulations!
Zhang Caifeng really didn't want to hear that the person the second brother liked was snatched away by the eldest brother. What a shame!
Gu Shuchen banged the table and punched the wall at home, looking more and more haggard. Zhang Caifeng was so anxious that a blister appeared on her mouth, which hurt when touched.
"Shu Chen, you are tearing out my heart, hiss...if there is anything I...hiss...will find a way for you, don't be so hard on yourself...hiss...!"
Zhang Caifeng grabbed Gu Shuchen, and the blood marks on his hands made her cry.
"You are angry...hiss...you can smash cups and bowls, but how can you...hiss!"
Zhang Caifeng couldn't continue speaking, and blood began to seep from the corners of her mouth. Both mother and son were in terrible pain.
"Mom, why did Gu Qingye snatch my people as soon as he came back? Why didn't he die outside?"
Gu Shuchen spoke without thinking, but Zhang Caifeng did not blame him at all, as if in her heart only her youngest son was her son.
"That bitch thinks it's so good to be with the army? She might become a widow someday!"
Gu Shuchen said this and was about to pound his fist against the wall again.
This blue brick and tile house was built with the money sent back by Gu Qingye. He lived comfortably in it, but now he felt that Gu Qingye's cold gaze could be seen through the cracks in the wall.
