Chapter 259 Who Performs Best
"If you want to wait for the Red Army to come——"
The high and pleasant high notes, like the sound of nature, strike the soul and make all the listeners excited.
"Azaleas are blooming on the ridge~"
"Azaleas are blooming on the ridge..."
Only then did everyone recover from the shock brought by the high notes and burst into warm applause.
When singing the high note for the second time, Yu Hui pitched it even higher than the previous time, but she still sang it with ease.
The high-pitched and melodious high notes really echoed in everyone's ears like lingering sound.
After singing the song, I still feel unsatisfied.
"Thank you, everyone." After singing the song, Yu Hui bowed to the people in the audience and then pushed the precious bicycle she won back to the stage.
There was another burst of warm applause from the audience.
Gu Huai also quickly stood up to greet Yu Hui.
"Let me do it." Gu Huai took it from Yu Hui and walked down the stairs carrying the bicycle.
"Thank you, Comrade Xiao Yu, for bringing us such a touching song."
"Today's party ends here. Please leave in an orderly manner and avoid crowding..."
On the way home, Gu Huai helped push the bicycle, and the children took turns sitting on the back seat and playing.
Yu Hui looked at her bicycle and felt indescribable joy in her heart. If it weren't for the fact that she wanted to avoid being exposed, she would have wanted to ride her bicycle home right now.
She can ride a bicycle, but the original owner can't. The original owner has never touched a bicycle in the countryside, so she naturally can't say that she can ride one.
Of course, you have to pretend to learn how to ride it.
"Xiao Yu, you sing so beautifully, better than anyone in the art troupe." Someone from the military family compound walked past the family and said to Yu Hui sideways.
"No, no." Yu Hui waved her hand modestly.
"Of course not. It's just better than the ones in the art troupe."
"That's right." Someone agreed.
Yu Hui smiled but said nothing. She sang purely as a personal hobby and was an amateur. There was still a big gap between her and professional singers.
Along the way, the Gu family members held their chests high with pride, feeling that today was a very glorious day.
The bathhouse closed at 8:30, so it was too late to take a bath there. After returning home, the family sat in the yard, eating fried dough twists and fried fish, watching the moon for a while, then simply washed up and went back to their room to sleep.
"My second brother is going home tomorrow, you can go and see him off." Yu Hui was sitting on the bed in her pajamas, looking at Gu Huai who walked into the room while still wearing his summer pajamas.
Just now when we were looking at the moon, Gu He said he missed home and wanted to buy a ticket back tomorrow.
Gu Huai nodded and sat on the bed. "I'll go to the camp to get the car tomorrow morning and drive my second brother to the station."
Yu Hui turned sideways, took out fifty yuan from under the pillow and handed it to Gu Huai.
"Tomorrow when you take your second brother to the station, go to the state-owned store and buy some mooncakes, candy, and malted milk. Have him take them back. Don't let him go back empty-handed. Let him keep the remaining money as well."
Gu Huai didn't answer, "No, I still have money."
Yu Hui: "Whether you have money is your business, this is just a token of my appreciation for my family."
Gu Huai stared at her for a few seconds, then reached out to take it.
He liked to hear the word "family" very much. It meant that although she said that they would divorce in three years, she still regarded his family as family in her heart.
Gu Huai stood up and put the money into the pocket of the clothes he would wear tomorrow.
Beibei was sleepy and fell asleep curled up in his mother's arms.
Gu Huai returned to bed, looked at Yu Hui, and asked, "What do you think of our Special Forces Corps' show tonight?"
"Very well." Yu Hui gently patted Beibei in her arms.
“Who do you think performed the best?”
Gu Huai looked at her without blinking.
Yu Hui thought about it, and the image of Wu Hai performing on the stage appeared in her mind, "Wu Hai."
Sure enough, Gu Huai's face darkened.
Yu Hui glanced at him casually, but noticed that his expression was a little off, so she frowned and asked, "What's wrong?"
Gu Huai shook his head, "Nothing, go to sleep."
After saying that, he lay down.
Yu Hui carefully placed Beibei in the middle and quietly asked Gu Huai to turn off the lights.
After a while, Yu Hui fell asleep with Beibei in her arms. Gu Huai, who was still awake, lay sideways in the dark, looking at her facial features, feeling a little angry.
She is his daughter-in-law, how can he look at other men and think that they are better?
At this moment, Gu Huai's possessiveness from men reached its peak.
He raised his upper body, leaned forward, and kissed Yu Hui on the forehead, like stamping a seal, as if the person belonged to him after the seal was stamped.
Before daybreak, the Gu family woke up according to their biological clocks.
Gu He was leaving today, so Yu Hui went to buy vegetables, made dumplings, and prepared a hearty breakfast early in the morning.
When Gu He set out, he also brought him steamed buns, steamed bread, twisted dough sticks and fried fish for him to eat on the way.
"Sister-in-law, I'm leaving."
"Qiuyan, work hard in the army and take good care of yourself."
"Hongmei, you are doing well at your fourth brother's house. Work hard with your fourth sister-in-law and call home often."
"Dongdong, study hard, don't be naughty, and take good care of your younger brothers and sisters."
"Nannan Xixi, be good and obedient. Come home early to play during the New Year."
"Beibei, eat well and grow up obediently."
Gu He stood beside the jeep and said goodbye to everyone who came to see him off with a smile.
Gu Qiuyan was a little reluctant, "Dad, you too, take care of yourself. When I have home leave, I will go home to see you."
Gu He nodded with relief. His daughter had grown up and knew how to feel sorry for her father.
The three Gudong brothers said: "Goodbye, Second Dad. Come visit us often in the future."
Beibei also waved her little hand and said, "See you later..."
"Okay, bye, bye." Gu He smiled and waved, then got into the jeep.
Yu Hui stood at the door with the children. Only after seeing the jeep go away did she turn around and go back.
Gu Huai came into the city early, so the state-owned stores were not crowded at that time. He bought a bunch of things according to Yu Hui's instructions before continuing to send his second brother to the train station.
He went to the train station, bought a ticket, and sent the person on the train. He also added twenty yuan to the remaining money after buying things and secretly put it into his second brother's pocket.
It was only after the train had left that Gu He discovered the forty yuan he had secretly stuffed into his pocket.
Gu He's train arrived at the station at four o'clock in the afternoon. Because he called the supply and marketing cooperative in town when he was at the station, Gu Jiang came to pick him up when he got out of the station.
"Why did you bring back so many things again?" Gu Jiang frowned when he saw the large and small bags his second brother was carrying and holding.
Gu He smiled and said, "I told him not to buy it, but the youngest insisted on buying it. You know, he's stronger than me, and I can't stop him."
Gu Jiang shook his head helplessly and put all the things on the tractor.
When he got home at around five o'clock, Gu He gave the forty yuan that the youngest brother had secretly given him to his mother.
Zhao Changying frowned as she took the money and said, "You've already brought back so many things, why are you still accepting the money he asked you to take?"
The last time she came back, Xiaohui gave her some money, and it hasn't been long since then.
Gu He said, "When I was on the train, the youngest one secretly put it in my pocket. I didn't find it until the train started moving. If the youngest one had given it to me directly, I would definitely not have taken it."
Wang Mei looked at the forty yuan that went into the mother-in-law's hands, and her eyes were jealous. She blamed her husband for being too honest. It was forty yuan, and he embezzled ten yuan. Who would know?
