Chapter 247: Really Proud
"Second brother, Fourth Sister-in-law is in the newspaper." Gu Hongmei walked into the noodle shop happily with the newspaper she had just bought.
Gu He looked confused, wondering what kind of newspaper it was in.
Qian Lan, on the other hand, was very excited. She wiped her hands on her apron and asked Gu Hongmei, "Has our noodle shop been featured in the newspaper?"
Gu Hongmei nodded and said, "It was published. There's also your photo in Sister Yu's newspaper."
"Really? Let me see." Qian Lan's wheat-colored face flushed with excitement, and she hurried to Gu Hongmei to read the newspaper.
She didn't know many words, but she saw her name in the newspaper.
"Military Wife Qian Lan, this is my name."
"Yes, there's a picture of you kneading dough here." Gu Hongmei pointed to the lower left corner.
In the lower left corner is a photo of Qian Lan kneading dough, and in the middle is a photo of Yu Hui picking noodles. Qian Lan's body appears a little stiff and her facial expression is unnatural in the photo, but Yu Hui's frontal photo of picking noodles is very natural and focused, and you will be attracted at first sight.
"Really? Why does my expression look so weird?" Qian Lan looked at her photo and was a little dissatisfied.
Yu Hui walked over and said, "Sister-in-law, you were too nervous when taking the photo, so your expression and body movements don't look natural."
Qian Lan: "Those were reporters taking pictures of me. How could I not be nervous? I've never had my picture taken before."
"Let me see." Gu He walked over.
Yu Hui gave him another newspaper. She originally wanted to buy only one, but Gu Hongmei and Gu Nan asked her to buy a few more copies. One said that she would let her second brother take it home to read to family and relatives, and the other said that she would let her brother take it to school to read to his classmates, so she bought a few more copies.
Gu He carefully looked at the photo in the newspaper, read the content, and gave Yu Hui a thumbs up.
"It's all in the newspaper. You're so proud, Xiaohui."
If I take this newspaper home and show it to my parents, they will be so happy.
His father was determined to take it to the village committee and read it to the whole village using a loudspeaker.
Gu He folded up the newspaper and said, "I'm going to take this newspaper home and show it to my parents, relatives and friends."
After hearing what he said, Qian Lan also said, "I will also send this newspaper back to my parents in my mother's family and my parents-in-law's family to read."
She wanted to let them all see how successful Qian Lan was now.
She wanted to let her husband's parents know that Qian Lan could now earn money on her own, and that she had appeared in newspapers that their son had not been in.
"I'll buy two copies right now." Qian Lan said as she was about to go out to buy newspapers.
"Sister-in-law, you don't have to buy it. I have some extra." Yu Hui said as she handed Qian Lan two newspapers.
"Thank you." Qian Lan took it with a smile, but when the newspaper was in her hand, the smile froze on her face and then slowly went down.
Because she remembered that before she and Xiao Yu opened the noodle shop, both her husband's family and her own family often asked them for money.
If they knew that she had opened a noodle shop with someone else and that business was so good, wouldn't they ask her and Yu Qiang for more money?
We still can’t let them know that the noodle shop business is booming.
Seeing that her face was not right, Yu Hui asked quietly: "What's wrong, sister-in-law?"
Qian Lan came back to her senses and smiled, "Nothing, thank you for the newspaper, I'll continue kneading the dough."
Many people who came to eat noodles at noon were talking about Yu Hui being in the newspaper.
"Now that this Happy Noodle House is in the newspaper, will people from the city come to our military dependents' compound and compete with us for noodles?"
"The newspaper praised the noodles so highly, so people will definitely come here because of its reputation."
"If I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have praised my noodles so highly during the interview." The male comrade who was interviewed by the reporter held his forehead in regret.
"Don't worry too much. Even if people from the city want to come and eat, they will probably come on weekends. They shouldn't be able to compete with us on weekdays."
"That's great, but I don't know if they can outsmart those soldiers who have been craving it for a week."
The noodle shop is closed on Saturdays and is open one day on Sundays because the soldiers are resting.
Half of the people who can line up for food at noon on weekdays will not come to compete with these soldiers on Sundays. One reason is that they cannot get it, and the other is that they want these soldiers who have worked hard to train and defend their country to also have a bowl of delicious noodles.
The diners who were eating noodles also asked if Yu Hui and her colleagues were open during holidays.
We were all very happy to hear that the store would be closed on the 30th and 1st, and open on the 2nd and 3rd. We just hoped it wouldn't be closed for four consecutive days.
At 2:30 in the afternoon, the noodle shop finished packing and closed.
Wen Zhaodi is still working in the bun shop. There are still two baskets of buns that have not been sold out. She has to wait until the evening to sell them all.
Seeing Yu Hui and the others go home so early again, and remembering that everyone who came to buy buns today would ask, "The noodle shop next door is in the newspaper, why isn't your bun shop in the newspaper?" I felt jealous and envious.
When Gu Huai returned home from get off work, he heard from others that Yu Hui was in the newspaper.
When I passed by a grocery store, I bought a few more newspapers and read them all the way home. By the time I got home, I had just finished reading the contents of the newspapers.
In the yard, Gu Dong was reading the newspaper to his younger brother and sister.
"Daddy is here." Gu Xixi pointed at Gu Huai who came in and shouted.
"Dad, Mom is in the newspaper." Gu Dong immediately ran towards his father with the newspaper.
Gu Huai raised the newspaper in his hand and said, "I saw it."
"Dad, did you buy a newspaper too?" Gu Nan asked.
Gu Huai nodded, "I bought a few more."
He will put these newspapers in the regiment's reading room tomorrow.
Before going to bed at night, Yu Hui gave Gu Huai the money she was going to give to the driver for picking up the meat the next morning.
The money for meat was a little more than usual because she ordered more ribs and pig's feet.
Yu Hui woke up at four in the morning because she had to urinate.
She carefully let go of Beibei and tried to pull out her hand that was under her pillow, but she found something wrong.
Why does Beibei have no hair?
She was startled and reached out to touch it. Oh my god, it was not Beibei she was hugging, but Gu Huai's arm.
In the darkness, Gu Huai's chest was obviously bulging, obviously because Beibei was sleeping on him.
When did Beibei climb onto Gu Huai to sleep?
When did she fall asleep holding Gu Huai's arm?
Yu Hui had no idea and just thought it was an accident. She was also glad that she was woken up by the urge to pee and realized that she had hugged the wrong person. It would be embarrassing if Gu Huai knew.
She pulled her hand back, sat on the bed for a few seconds, and got out of bed in the dark.
As soon as she got out of bed, Gu Huai opened his eyes.
Gu Huai was very alert when he slept, and he woke up the moment Yu Hui touched his arm.
He frowned in the darkness, a hint of regret flashing in his eyes.
Xiaohui has discovered this now, and she will probably be extra careful in the future to avoid hugging the wrong arm after falling asleep.
