Chapter 416: Will I have a younger uncle?
In the afternoon, Yu Hui and several children were standing guard at the front. Just as they saw off a regular customer who brought his friends to buy clothes, a familiar person walked in.
"sister in law."
"Xu Daqiang?" Yu Hui looked at Xu Daqiang in green military uniform with some surprise. Why was he here?
Isn't today their day off?
"Are you here to buy clothes?"
Xu Daqiang nodded and looked around the store. When he didn't see Gu Hongmei, he asked, "Is Comrade Hongmei here? I want her to recommend something for me."
Yu Hui was stunned for a moment, staring at Xu Daqiang for a few seconds, then suddenly realized what was going on. She nodded hurriedly and said, "Yes, yes, I'll let her out right away."
Yu Hui took the children to the back and told Gu Hongmei that someone was looking for her.
"Who is it?" Gu Hongmei straightened up with a confused look on her face.
Yu Hui pursed her lips and smiled, "You'll know when you get out."
When Gu Hongmei walked out and saw Xu Daqiang, her face turned red and she turned to leave.
"Comrade Gu Hongmei," Xu Daqiang called to her. "I want to buy a skirt for my sister. Can you recommend one?"
Gu Hongmei turned back and walked over to Xu Daqiang and asked, "How old is your sister?"
It just so happened that she didn't bring the hairpin he gave her last time with her today, otherwise she could have returned it to him.
"She is seventeen and still in high school. She has always wanted a dress. I told her that if she gets into college, I will buy her a beautiful dress as a reward." Xu Daqiang's face was full of smiles when he mentioned his sister.
"I don't know if I'll still be around when she gets into college, so I want to buy it in advance and send it back, and then have my mom give it to her after she finishes the exam."
Gu Hongmei suddenly raised her head, not knowing whether she was still there. What did it mean?
Xu Daqiang smiled and said, "I'm going on a mission. It's a bit dangerous, and I don't know if I can come back."
"You will definitely come back!" Gu Hongmei blurted out.
"Thank you for your good wishes. I also hope that I can come back alive. After all, I haven't had a girlfriend yet. It would be a pity if I died like this." Xu Daqiang joked.
Gu Hongmei looked at him smiling, but felt a little sad in her heart.
Xu Daqiang shrugged his shoulders pretending to be relaxed. "Please help me recommend something. My sister's skin is a bit dark, so she needs to wear something that makes her look whiter."
"How about this yellow skirt? This color makes you look whiter and is suitable for young girls." Gu Hongmei recommended it to Xu Daqiang seriously.
Xu Daqiang took a look and nodded, saying, "Okay, this is it. Please pack it for me."
"How much?"
He asked as he took out his wallet from his pocket.
"Since you're an acquaintance, you can get a 40% discount. This skirt is 18 yuan, and I'll give you a discount, so just give me 10 yuan." Gu Hongmei walked to the counter holding the clothes.
Xu Daqiang: "Thank you so much."
Gu Hongmei carefully folded the clothes, wrapped them in linen cloth specially used for wrapping clothes, and tied a bow with a thin string.
"Here you go." Gu Hongmei handed the wrapped clothes to Xu Daqiang with both hands.
Xu Daqiang stretched out his hands to take it, "Comrade Gu Hongmei." He suddenly spoke.
"Ah?" Gu Hongmei looked up at him.
"I like you."
A blush spread from Gu Hongmei's ears to her entire face.
"I'm not saying this because I want you to accept me. I'm just afraid that if I don't say it today, I won't have another chance in the future. This is the first time I like a girl, and I want to say it out loud. I don't want to have any regrets."
"Comrade Gu Hongmei, I like you and hope you will be safe and happy for the rest of your life." Xu Daqiang said with a grin, revealing a row of white teeth.
Gu Hongmei's heart, which had been silent due to the hurt, began to beat like a deer again.
Xu Daqiang's sincere confession and blessing touched her heart, but at the same time she felt a little sad because he was about to carry out a dangerous mission that might cost his life.
"Then you come back alive."
Xu Daqiang said "Ah?", not understanding what she meant.
Gu Hongmei bit her lower lip and said, "If you come back alive, I will be your partner."
"Really? As long as I come back alive, you will be my partner?" Xu Daqiang was so happy that he almost went crazy.
"Keep your voice down." Gu Hongmei was extremely embarrassed. "First, come back alive."
"But you have to think about it, I'm a divorced person." Her voice gradually lowered.
Xu Daqiang said nonchalantly, "I've known about this for a long time. So what if you're divorced? I don't mind even if you have children."
Gu Hongmei: "If you don't mind, will your family also not mind?"
There are probably very few parents who would not mind their son finding a divorced partner.
Xu Daqiang: "They are eager for me to get married soon. It doesn't matter who it is, as long as it's a woman."
There is a cousin in their family who is also twenty-four or twenty-five and still has no partner. When pressed, he says that he hasn't met the right person. In the end, it was found out that he is dating his best friend. He doesn't like women, he likes men!
Since then, all their relatives have been worried that their sons will have the same problem as their cousin.
Especially him, as he is surrounded by men in the army and is in his twenties and still single. Whenever his mother urges him, he says he doesn't have time, so his parents are very worried.
No matter whether the person he will date in the future is married or not, as long as she is a woman, they will be so happy that they will laugh out loud.
After Xu Daqiang left, Gu Qiuyu, Yu Hui and a few children, who had been eavesdropping behind the door for a while, came out from behind.
"Oh my, it looks like I'll have a little uncle soon."
Gu Hongmei blushed and glared at her nieces, not knowing how much they had eavesdropped on her.
"When did you two fall in love with each other? How come I didn't notice?" Yu Hui asked curiously.
Gu Hongmei stamped her feet, "Who is attracted to him?"
Yu Hui: "Didn't you promise to date him when he comes back?"
Doesn't this mean they fell in love with each other before?
When she was in the noodle shop, she was so busy cooking noodles that she didn't notice any signs at all. She was probably too focused on cooking the noodles.
Gu Hongmei was embarrassed and turned around and ran to the backyard.
"Aunt, what are you doing?"
"I need to go to the bathroom!"
Gu Qiuyu: "I'm sorry, little aunt."
Yu Hui smiled and poked her between the eyebrows, "Be careful or your aunt will beat you."
When she got home from get off work in the afternoon, Yu Hui asked Gu Huai to kill a chicken that her sister-in-law and her family had brought from their hometown, and made a chicken stewed with mushrooms.
The children left the table early to watch TV. Gu Qiuyu was gnawing on a chicken paw when she suddenly asked, "Dad, what mission is your subordinate Xu Daqiang going on? Can someone else go? Otherwise, I won't have a uncle anymore."
"What uncle-in-law?" Gu Huai frowned.
Gu Hongmei kicked Gu Qiuyu under the table. What nonsense was she talking about!
"Ouch." Gu Qiuyu cried out, "That Xu Daqiang confessed his love to my aunt today, and my aunt agreed, saying that she would date him when he came back."
She was also thinking about her aunt's happiness, so why did her aunt kick her?
"Heh..." Gu Huai laughed angrily.
"That brat asked me for leave today, saying he had something very important to do, which was to confess his love to my sister!"
The bastard is so brave that he dares to seduce his sister right under his nose!
Gu Huai wanted to rush to the camp immediately to have a sparring match with Xu Daqiang.
"Fourth brother, don't hit him." Gu Hongmei could see that he wanted to hit someone.
Gu Huai: "..."
I was even more angry. They weren't even in a relationship yet, but Hongmei was already protecting him.
"Dad, can we change someone?" Gu Qiuyu asked again.
Gu Huai lowered his eyelids and said in a deep voice, "No."
In order to ensure the successful completion of the mission, these dispatched personnel were all elite members of their special forces regiment, and no replacements were possible.
Even if he could replace someone, he would not replace Xu Daqiang just because Xu Daqiang was going to become his brother-in-law.
Using public power for personal gain is not his style, and it is an insult to Xu Daqiang.
