Chapter 200 It’s Not a Mission
Gu Huai glanced at the seven people in the dormitory and asked, "Why didn't you go?"
Yu Daqiang whispered, "We just want to save some money to send back home."
"You guys follow me."
Wu Hai and the others thought they were going to carry out some mission, so they quickly put on their hats and picked up the belts hanging at the end of the bed and tied them around their waists.
Seeing this, Gu Huai said, "It's not a mission, there's no need to dress so formally."
If it's not a mission, then what are you doing?
Several people looked at each other, put down the belts in their hands, took off the hats on their heads, and followed the deputy commander out of the dormitory with a lot of questions in their minds.
When they arrived outside the warehouse, Wu Hai and the others were still wondering whether the deputy commander had brought them to clean the warehouse.
Pushing open the warehouse door, Gu Huai fanned the dust off the door frame, looked at the tables and stools piled on the left, and said to Wu Hai and others, "Choose eight sets of tables and stools that you can use from these."
The tables are long tables that can seat six people, and the stools are also long benches. One table and two benches form a set.
Wu Hai and the others didn't ask any more questions and just followed orders. They picked out eight sets from the tables and benches.
Even if you choose the best one, there are still one or two tables and stools that are not stable and need to be repaired after you take them back.
After the tables were chosen, Gu Huai carried a set of tables and chairs, and asked Wu Hai and others to carry a set of tables and chairs and follow him.
A group of people carried tables and chairs out of the camp and headed towards the military family compound.
"Why did the deputy commander bring so many tables and chairs to his home? His house can't even fit them all." Yu Qiang walked over to Wu Hai and asked, carrying the tables and chairs.
Wu Hai shook his head, "You'll know when you get there."
They all thought that the deputy commander was going to take so many tables and chairs home, but when they arrived at the gate of the military family compound, the deputy commander did not take him in, but turned right.
The door of the shop was already open, bricks and sand were placed at the entrance. Qian Lan was standing inside the shop. Seeing Gu Huai and the others coming, she went up to greet them and said, "Wow, you brought back so many tables and chairs."
Gu Huai carried the table and stools into the store and said to Wu Hai and the others, "Come in and put the table and stools inside."
Wu Hai and others carried the table and chairs into the house, placed them on the ground, and looked around the room.
"Deputy Commander, is there not enough space at home? He built another house this big." Yu Qiang muttered in a low voice.
At this time, Yu Hui came with her three children.
"Have you got them all?"
Gu Huai, who was sitting on the stool, stood up and said, "I brought back eight sets. Do you think they are enough? If not, I'll go get more."
Wu Hai and others also looked at Yu Hui and called her sister-in-law.
Yu Hui nodded and said, "That's enough. This restaurant can only accommodate eight tables." There would be no room for more.
"Oh, Uncle Wu Hai." Gu Xixi's baby voice was filled with surprise, and she trotted two steps and stood in front of Wu Hai.
The latter smiled at him, bent down, picked him up and held him high.
"Hahaha." Gu Xixi laughed happily.
"I want one too." Gu Nan also walked in front of Wu Hai and jumped with his arms open.
Wu Hai put Gu Xixi down and picked up Gu Nan and held him high.
"Beep, beep..." Beibei held her mother's hand and looked up at her father.
Gu Huai bent down and picked her up. He glanced at his two sons who were having fun playing with Wu Hai, and still felt that his daughter was the best.
"Sister-in-law, what are the purposes of placing so many tables in this room?" Yu Qiang couldn't help asking.
Yu Hui smiled and replied, "Open a noodle shop."
"Open a noodle shop?" The seven soldiers exclaimed in unison.
Yu Hui smiled and nodded. "Now that self-employed individuals are allowed to run businesses, I'm thinking of partnering with Sister Yu to open a noodle shop."
"When does it open?" Wu Hai asked hurriedly.
Others also wanted to know that once my sister-in-law opened her noodle shop, they could come to the shop to enjoy a bite whenever they felt hungry.
They were reluctant to contribute their allowances to the canteen and state-owned restaurants, but they were more than willing to contribute to their sister-in-law's noodle shop.
The food my sister-in-law cooks is much more delicious than the food in the canteen or state-owned restaurants.
Yu Hui thought for a moment and said, "It'll probably take at least five or six days."
Five or six days wouldn't be long. Wu Hai said excitedly, "I'll definitely come and eat at the noodle shop when it opens."
Whenever you crave my sister-in-law’s cooking in the future, you can come here and have a bowl of noodles to satisfy your craving.
Yu Daqiang: "We're coming too."
Yu Hui smiled and said, "Come on, I'll give you a discount then."
Gu Huai asked someone who knew how to repair tables and stools to fix the broken ones, and he took two people with him to build a stove and a table.
Gu Huai had a strong ability to understand, and he understood everything Yu Hui explained as soon as she did.
After mixing the sand, I started building the stove.
Yu Hui stood and watched for a while, then said to Wu Hai and the others, "I'm going home to cook first. You all should come home for lunch. Don't sneak away."
Yu Daqiang said with a playful smile: "Don't worry, sister-in-law, we have been looking forward to eating a meal cooked by you day and night. Now that the opportunity has come, we will not let it go."
Yu Hui was amused by him, and she and Qian Lan took Beibei back first. Gu Nan and Gu Xi wanted to play in the store, so they asked their father to take them back when he got home.
After returning home and tidying up, Yu Hui started preparing lunch.
Yu Hui went to the market and bought a chicken, a pair of pig intestines, and some taro, planning to make a taro and pig intestine chicken.
I also bought a big silver carp and planned to make a boiled fish.
Yu Hui and Qian Lan were chatting while cooking. When the food was almost ready, Gu Huai and the others came back.
Gu Huai asked Wu Hai and the others to wash their hands. After washing his own hands, he went into the kitchen.
"How can I help you?"
Qian Lan looked at Yu Hui enviously and joked, "Your Deputy Head Gu is so good. After finishing his work outside, he came into the kitchen and asked if there was anything he could help with. Unlike my Old Yu, he never sets foot in the kitchen and won't even help with a fallen soy sauce bottle."
It was obviously a joke, but I felt a little sad as I said it.
Yu Hui smiled and looked at Gu Huai and said, "Go to Sister Yu's house and bring her table and stools over. I'll just fry two more dishes and we can eat."
"Okay." Gu Huai walked out of the kitchen and called two more people to go with him to Yu's house to move the table.
Qian Lan looked at Gu Huai's back and said to Yu Hui, "Xiao Yu, you are actually a lucky person. Although you are a stepmother and your ex-husband left many children, Deputy Captain Gu is a really good man. He is much better than most men."
"Many men who earn money think they are the kings of the family. When they get home, they do nothing but wait for food and drink. As a woman, you don't earn money at home, but rely on me to earn money, so you should serve me."
"To put it bluntly, my old Yu is the same, but I see that Deputy Headmaster Gu doesn't have such thoughts."
"You have to cherish a man like this." She didn't know if she was wrong, but she always felt that Xiao Yu didn't seem to care that much about Gu Huai.
Yu Hui raised her eyebrows but said nothing.
She did not deny that Gu Huai was better than most men of this era. He also respected women more than most men and appreciated their contributions to the family.
It's true that he is a good man, but that doesn't mean that she has to spend her whole life with him just because he is a good man.
The prerequisite for forming a family and spending a lifetime with someone is that your three views are in line with each other and you like each other.
