Chapter 191 Admission
"Isn't Qiuyan still here?" Gu Huai asked, "You know, that girl has the biggest mouth. If she knew we didn't sleep together, she would definitely tell Mom when she returns to the food supply department in the second half of the month."
"If Mom knew, she would definitely come to watch over us as soon as the busy farming season is over."
Logically speaking, no matter how small the bed in the study is, it is more comfortable than sleeping on the floor.
But Gu Huai seemed to be used to sleeping on the floor. When he heard Yu Hui say that he could sleep in the study instead of sleeping on the floor, he was actually a little unhappy.
Yu Hui thought about Gu Qiuyan's mouth and Zhao Changying's personality, then nodded and said, "That's right."
Then let him sleep on the floor for a while until Gu Qiuyan goes to the army.
Even though she knew that she could apply for self-employed status by opening a restaurant, Yu Hui did not rush to the Industrial and Commercial Bureau.
No matter what, we have to wait for Qian Lan to come back and discuss it with her.
After resting for two days, Gu Huai went back to work.
However, he no longer stayed away from home for several days like before, but went home every day, but sometimes came back a little later.
On August 10th, conscription registration began.
Yu Hui asked Gu Dong and Gu Nan to look after their younger siblings at home, and took Gu Qiuyan to the conscription office to sign up.
When one person joins the army, the whole family is honored. Therefore, whenever there is a conscription, there will be many people who sign up.
There are both men and women who come to register, but there are still more men than women.
Gu Qiuyan filled out the application form. After the staff at the conscription office looked at it, they asked her to take the application form to the next room for an interview.
The interview was conducted by a male and a female military officer. They asked Gu Qiuyan many questions, and she answered them all swiftly and truthfully.
The two officers were satisfied with her answer and asked her to go to the next room for a physical examination, which was performed by a female military doctor.
While examining and filling out forms, the female military doctor also praised Gu Qiuyan for her good health and said she was a good candidate for a soldier.
After the examination, Gu Qiuyan was allowed to go home. The results would be announced three days later. If her name was on the list, she would be admitted; if not, she would not be admitted.
Yu Hui had been waiting outside. When she saw Gu Qiuyan come out, she went up to her and asked, "How is it?"
Gu Qiuyan pursed her lips and said thoughtfully, "I think there's a chance."
As long as there is a show.
"Let's go home and I'll make you some braised pork." Yu Hui took Gu Qiuyan's hand and walked towards home.
"Aren't you going to wait for my dad to come back and eat together?"
"Don't wait for him."
At noon, to celebrate for Gu Qiuyan, they had braised pork. Although Yu Hui said that she would not wait for Gu Huai to come back to eat together, she still left half a bowl for him.
When eating noodles in the evening, Gu Huai gave each of the children a piece, but he didn't even eat two pieces himself.
Three days passed quickly. There were many people looking at the list, so Yu Hui didn't let the child go with her and went to see the list with Gu Qiuyan.
After finally squeezing in to look at the list, the two of them looked up at the red list, searching for the three words "Gu Qiuyan".
Before I found it, I heard someone shouting, "Qiuyan, you've been accepted."
The two looked in the direction of the sound and saw Zhan Lang standing in the front, waving at them.
Gu Qiuyan was stunned at first, then happily hugged Yu Hui, "Ahhh, I was accepted, I was accepted, I can be a female soldier."
Yu Hui patted her on the back and was happy for her.
After finally squeezing out, Gu Qiuyan tugged at her clothes, which had been squeezed askew. She looked at Zhan Lang, whose white shirt was wrinkled, and asked, "Why did you come to see the list?"
Zhan Lang raised his hand and touched the back of his neck. "I'm here to help a relative check the list?"
"Where are your relatives?" Gu Qiuyan looked behind him but didn't see anyone.
Zhan Lang said, "He couldn't come, so he asked me to look at the list."
Gu Qiuyan didn't doubt it, "So was he accepted?"
"Admitted, of course admitted." Zhan Lang said with a smile.
Yu Hui knew everything clearly and smiled at Zhan Lang. He must have come specially to help Gu Qiuyan check the list.
"Zhanlang, to celebrate Qiuyan, I bought a big fish at the market this morning and will make boiled fish in the evening. You can come join us." Yu Hui made an invitation.
Zhan Lang also helped her find out the news, so she should treat him to a meal.
Zhan Lang's face lit up with joy, "Okay."
Those who were admitted could go to the conscription office to collect two sets of military uniforms. After collecting them, the three of them returned to the military family compound together.
In the evening, Yu Hui made spicy and delicious boiled fish, and added konjac, tofu, bean sprouts, phoenix tail and other side dishes, a whole bowl of it.
In addition, I also made some jelly, steamed pork with rice flour, and fried two vegetarian dishes.
I also cooked a small pot of fish, meat and vegetable porridge for Beibei.
Zhan Lang arrived at five o'clock, helped with some work, and took Gu Dong and the others to the grocery store to buy soda.
Dinner was about to begin. Gu Huai raised the soda that Zhan Lang had bought and said, "Let's toast together to celebrate Qiu Yan's admission."
"Qiuyan, congratulations." Yu Hui congratulated with a smile.
"Thank you, Dad, thank you, Mom." Gu Qiuyan's little face flushed with joy.
"Congratulations, Qiuyan." Zhan Lang also raised his soda and congratulated with a smile.
The three brothers of the Gu family: "Sister Qiuyan, congratulations..."
"Jiejie ah ah..." Beibei raised his little spoon.
Everyone clinked their bottles together, "Thank you everyone." Gu Qiuyan thanked happily.
"Eat more." Yu Hui put a piece of fish into Gu Qiuyan's bowl.
"Hey, thank you, mom."
"Don't call me sister anymore?" Yu Hui frowned. She really didn't like this title.
Gu Qiuyan said with a smile: "I should change my way of speaking and get used to calling you Yao Ma."
After all, she is a soldier.
"The new recruits have to report to the conscription office on August 20th. You have to go home quickly in the next two days and transfer the food supply." Gu Huai looked at Gu Qiuyan and said.
Yu Hui frowned. "You can't take leave, and I have to take care of the children. Who will take Qiuyan back?"
It would be bad to let her, a little girl, go back alone.
What if something unexpected happens?
"I can go back by myself. Don't worry about me, Mom and Dad." She had been here once and knew how to go back.
Isn’t it just taking a train?
You can call home in advance and ask them to pick her up at the county train station.
If her family is not available, she can take the bus to town by herself.
"How can that be possible?" Zhan Lang frowned and said, "There are still a lot of bad guys nowadays."
He recently read in the newspaper that cases of young girls and children going missing frequently occurred at train stations across the country, and most of them were abducted and trafficked.
Beautiful young girls like Gu Qiuyan are the most likely targets of human trafficking criminals.
"Why not?" Gu Qiuyan asked, "When I put on my military uniform, will that bad guy dare to attack me?"
She could even imagine how cool she would look sitting on the train in her military uniform.
Zhan Lang: "These days, people wearing military uniforms aren't necessarily soldiers. Even if you put on a military uniform, people won't necessarily think you're a soldier."
Military uniforms are considered popular clothing in this era, and young people wearing military uniforms can be seen everywhere on the streets.
Gu Qiuyan frowned. "Even if the bad guys dare to attack me, I'm not afraid of them. I'll beat them to a pulp."
Zhan Lang: "These bad guys have many tricks up their sleeves. Even if you're strong and skilled, you may not be able to defeat them."
Gu Qiuyan looked at Zhan Lang and felt that he was a bit annoying. He always refuted everything she said.
Zhan Lang didn't notice that Gu Qiuyan was annoying him. Instead, he rolled his eyes and looked at Gu Huai and said, "Uncle Gu, I have nothing to do anyway. Why don't I take Sister Qiuyan back home?"
Gu Qiuyan: “?”
