Chapter 464 Facing the sunset, towards happiness
When Gu Hongmei got married, all the members of the Gu family came, including Gu Qiuye.
Except for Mrs. Gu, who was really carsick and couldn't travel far.
Gu Pingshan asked the relatives in the village to help take care of him.
Zhao Changying and Gu Pingshan prepared a piece of furniture with forty-six legs and ten quilts as a dowry for their daughter, and also gave her a hundred yuan in savings.
Gu Hongmei took all the three turns, one ring and two hundred yuan of betrothal gifts back to her husband's family without keeping a single cent.
Gu Huai and Yu Hui, the brother and sister-in-law, were even more generous and directly gave a TV and a refrigerator as dowry.
Gu Jiang discussed it with his other two younger brothers and gave each of them fifty yuan.
The fifty yuan made Wang Mei and Tian Ying very sad. The two sisters-in-law secretly said that Zhao Changying and Gu Pingshan were partial to each other. Not only did they not keep any betrothal gifts, but they also gave such a large dowry to Gu Hongmei, a daughter who was getting married for the second time.
When they left Yucheng, Zhao Changying gave them the money that the second and third sons' families had sent them.
Because the second and third sons' families are not like the eldest son's, two of them work in the city with Xiaohui to earn a salary. When Hongmei got married, they helped Hongmei with her facials and gave such an expensive gift to the eldest son. The two daughters-in-law would definitely have something to say, so she simply used her own money to compensate them.
Zhao Changying is rich. She takes care of Yu Hui in the city. Yu Hui gives her 80 yuan a month for living expenses, which she can never spend all.
If Yu Hui can't spend all the money, let her keep it herself, and still give her the monthly payment.
After Gu Hongmei returned home, Gu Pingshan took his family back home.
By the Chinese New Year, Yu Hui was already seven months pregnant. She had gained some weight and her belly was as big as a watermelon.
However, her pregnancy was going well and the baby in her belly was sensible. Except for vomiting for a while in the first three months, there was basically no major reaction afterwards.
Zhao Changying was worried about her and did not go back for the New Year. However, Zheng Rong took Gu Qiuyu back, and Gu Hongmei stayed in the city.
Gu Qiuyan spent the New Year holiday at the military family compound for a few days, and had a pretty lively New Year.
Gu Qiuyan performed well in the communications company and has been promoted to squad leader. He looks more imposing now.
On the second day of the Lunar New Year, Gu Qiuyan, wearing a military uniform and a hat, held Beibei in her arms, and took her three younger brothers to the grocery store to buy fireworks.
As soon as she reached the gate of the military family compound, she heard someone calling her.
"Gu Qiuyan?"
She paused, turned around with Beibei in her arms, and saw an acquaintance.
"Zhan Lang!" She grinned, revealing a row of big white teeth.
Zhan Lang was wearing the same military uniform as her, and a military coat outside. He looked more robust than before.
"Are you back from vacation?" Gu Qiuyan asked with a smile.
Zhan Lang nodded, "How are you doing in the Communications Company?"
"That's great. I'm now the squad leader of the communications company." Gu Qiuyan raised her chin proudly.
Zhan Lang liked her confidence, "Then you are great."
"That's right. Don't you see whose niece I am?" She is the niece of the commander of the special forces regiment!
But no one in their company knew about this.
"Okay, I won't follow you anymore. I'm going to take my younger brother and sister to buy firecrackers."
After saying that, Gu Qiuyan waved to him and said, "Goodbye."
Zhan Lang looked at her leaving back, smiled and said: "We will definitely meet again."
On the road ahead.
After the third year of junior high school, Gu Qiuyan returned to the company.
After the Chinese New Year, Gu Huai became busy again because the military district was going to carry out military exercises again.
Yu Hui also entered the late stage of pregnancy and suffered from leg cramps.
When Gu Huai was at home, he would massage her. When Gu Huai was not at home, she could only massage her by herself and cry at the same time.
Fortunately, before her due date, Gu Huai finally finished his work and even took half a month off to accompany Yu Hui during her delivery.
On March 20th, Yu Hui took action.
Gu Huai drove her to the military hospital. She waited in the delivery room for a long time for her cervix to dilate before being pushed into the delivery room.
Before entering the delivery room, Yu Hui, sweating profusely from the pain, tightly grasped Gu Huai's hand and said, "If anything happens, you must protect me. Do you hear me?"
Gu Huai was stunned for a moment, then nodded vigorously and said, "I'll protect you, I'll protect you, only you."
Three hours later, accompanied by the cry of a baby, a new life was born.
Three years later
"Beibei, run slower, don't fall." Eleven-year-old Gu Dong, holding his three-year-old sister Zhenzhen, shouted to his five-year-old sister Beibei.
Eleven-year-old Gu Dong is already over 1.6 meters tall and has grown into a big boy.
"I won't fall!" Beibei snorted and ran straight into the garment factory.
"Hey, Beibei is here?" Gu Hai came out of the warehouse and saw his niece Beibei.
"Third Dad, is my mother back?" Beibei asked hurriedly.
She hasn't seen her mother for a week.
Gu Dong and his friends, as well as three-year-old Zhenzhen, also called him "Third Dad".
Gu Hai nodded and said, "I'm back. I just got off the train from Pengcheng and went straight to the factory for a meeting. You guys should go to your mother's office and wait."
He also had to go to a meeting at the moment. A new batch of materials had just arrived and he had to watch over the storage, so he didn't go.
Gu Dong nodded and said, "I'll take my brother and sister to the office to wait for mom."
Gu Dong brought his younger brother and sister to his mother's office with ease, and put his younger sister Zhenzhen on the sofa.
"Big Pot, when will mommy come to see Zhenzhen?" Zhenzhen asked with her little face raised.
Gu Dong touched his little sister's face and said, "Mom will be here soon."
After saying that, she reminded her younger brothers not to touch things in her mother's office.
Last year, Yu Hui obtained investment from overseas Chinese and founded the Zhixia Garment Factory. It has now been put on the right track, and the clothing of the Zhixia Garment Factory has also entered major state-owned shopping malls.
Because half of the employees of Zhixia Garment Factory are basically military dependents, and it has received strong support from government departments, it has now become a very famous clothing company in Chongqing.
The entire Gu family also arrived in Yucheng and started working in the garment factory.
Yu Hui and Bai Chunhua, one is the factory director and the other is the deputy factory director, one is in charge of external affairs and the other is in charge of internal affairs.
Bai Chunhua and Wu Yang got married two years ago and gave birth to a daughter at the beginning of last year. She went back to work when the child was three months old.
Gu Hongmei is the manager of the finance department. Her child is almost two years old, a son, and her mother-in-law stays at home.
Zheng Rong is the director of the quality inspection department, Gu Qiuyu joined the design department and is currently learning fashion design from a master craftsman, and the Bai Chunling sisters are both team leaders in the workshop.
Gu Jiang learned the technology of repairing machines and joined the maintenance department, Gu He joined the logistics department, Gu Hai was in charge of the warehouse, Wang Mei joined the cafeteria, and only Tian Ying did not work in the factory.
The reason was because of her mouth. Originally, Yu Hui arranged her to work in the cafeteria, but she said that Yu Hui looked down on her as her sister-in-law. Outsiders were all officials in the factory, but she, her own sister-in-law, was not an official.
When Zhao Changying heard about it, she told her to go home and take care of the child.
Old Mrs. Gu passed away peacefully a year ago. Gu Pingshan resigned from his position as village chief, moved to the city, and raised the children with his wife.
Gu Qiuyue did not come to Yucheng, but opened a clothing store in the county town of her hometown, selling Zhixia's clothes and making a lot of money.
Gu Qiuye is very promising. He was admitted to a university in Beijing two years ago and is now a college student.
Today is the day Yu Hui returns from her study and exchange trip to Pengcheng. It is summer vacation now and the children haven't seen her for a week. The two younger ones knew she was back today and clamored to see their mother. Gu Dong, the older brother, brought his younger brothers and sisters directly to the factory.
"Tap tap tap..." The sound of high heels rang out.
"It's Mom." Beibei immediately rushed to the door.
A beautiful and capable woman with short hair, wearing a waist-hugging short-sleeved suit, wide-leg pants, and high heels appeared at the door.
"Mom." Beibei opened his arms and asked for a hug.
Yu Hui curled her red lips and picked up her eldest daughter, "Beibei, do you miss your mother?"
Beibei hugged her mother's neck and kissed her on the cheek, "Yes, Zhenzhen misses you too."
Yu Hui carried Beibei into the office, kissed her little face in return, and put her on the sofa.
He picked up Baba again, looked at his little daughter Zhenzhen and kissed her, then touched the heads of his three sons one by one, the main point being that he treated them all equally.
"Mom brought you gifts." Yu Hui dragged out the suitcase behind the desk.
He opened the suitcase and said, "Dongdong, this is a Walkman for you. You can use it to listen to music. When you start junior high school, you can also use it to listen to English."
"Thank you, Mom."
"This is the game console I bought for Nan Nan."
"Xixi's toy car."
"Beibei's Barbie doll."
"Where's Zhenzhen? Where's Zhenzhen?" Zhenzhen stamped her feet anxiously when she saw that her brothers and sisters had all received gifts.
"Yes, yes, Zhenzhen also has a Barbie doll, just like her sister's. Do you like it, Zhenzhen?"
Zhenzhen hugged the Barbie doll and nodded vigorously, "Zhenzhen's is the same as her sister's. Zhenzhen likes it, and Zhenzhen likes her sister too."
Beibei hugged her sister and kissed her little face, "I like Zhenzhen, too."
Yu Hui smiled and asked Gu Dong to take his younger brothers and sisters to wait for her. She signed a few documents that needed to be signed and went home.
After signing the documents, Yu Hui asked the driver to take her and the children home.
The factory is only about twenty minutes' walk from the military family compound, so when Gu Dong and the others came, they all walked.
The car stopped at the gate of the military family compound, and Yu Hui and the children got out.
As soon as I got off the car, I heard someone honking the horn.
When I turned around, I saw the jeep that was taking Gu Huai home.
Gu Huai, wearing a military uniform, got out of the car, and several children called out "Dad" in unison.
Seeing his wife whom he hadn't seen for many days, Gu Huai smiled and asked, "Director Yu is finally back from his business trip?
Yu Hui: "Deputy Brigade Commander Gu is off work so early?"
Gu Huai got promoted again, just this year.
"I heard that Director Yu was coming back today, so I finished my work early and got off the early shift."
The couple smiled at each other and stretched out their hands.
They walked hand in hand, shoulder to shoulder, with their children, facing the sunset, on the road to happiness.
