Du Feng scratched his head a little embarrassedly and saw Gu Jinghong nod.
He scooped out all the noodles in the bowl.
Su Ying quickly pushed the stewed pork towards him.
"Spoon more, this is enough."
Du Feng felt even more embarrassed and quickly said "Wu".
"It's because Auntie's noodles are so delicious that I can't help myself."
Su Ying smiled.
"Yes, it's delicious. Thank you, Brother Du, for your support."
The next day, Gu Jinghong and Du Feng took the village horse-drawn carriage. In winter, some villagers went to the county to sell cabbages, which were pulled by horse-drawn carriages. The two of them rode on other people's cabbages to the county town.
Su Ying and Chen Shuyun washed clothes, bed sheets and hung quilts at home.
Chen Erqiang's wife came over and asked them to help make dumplings. Su Ying then realized that the winter solstice was coming the next day.
Gu Jinghong didn't come back until the evening. Su Ying and the others had eaten dumplings at Chen Erqiang's house at noon, and he brought some back for them, but they didn't come back until dark.
Su Ying quickly touched Gu Jinghong's hand and found it was ice cold.
"Isn't it cold? Why are you guys so late?"
"It's getting dark, and the road is hard to walk on. Are you getting anxious waiting?"
Chen Shuyun brought each of them a teacup of hot water.
"Drink some hot water to warm yourself up first. I'll heat up some dumplings for you."
Capital city, military command post.
"Did that kid really say that?"
The soldier who answered the phone looked at the driver helplessly.
"Yes, that's what Commander Gu said. He said he hopes he can be the leader of the task force."
"Nonsense"
An old man next to the driver was the first to lose control.
"How old is he? Why does he want to cross the system to control other people's children? He's obvious."
After cursing, he went to see the driver and sneered at him again.
"This guy is willing to come back to work. Sifu, what do you think? Should we also help him get this done? Otherwise, he'll keep dragging it out until the New Year. The deputy commander and the commissar of his division haven't been home for the New Year in almost three years. And the regimental commanders and battalion commanders under him are all staying put. Besides, if he comes back, won't someone else do our previous mission?"
The driver glanced at the old man who was speaking.
"I know you can't bear to part with him. This isn't a difficult matter, but we need to let them investigate on their own. If he's involved, call him and tell him he can assist, but not be the team leader."
Everyone in the command center laughed and said that others were reluctant to part with him, and the drivers were reluctant to part with him too.
Su Ying and her friends found the person who went to the university that Su Ying was admitted to these days. Her name was Hao Wenjuan. Su Ying also found out her home address. Her mother was actually a doctor, and she had no father.
In that era, families like this attracted a lot of attention, so when Su Ying went to ask around, she found her home and heard a lot about her children from the neighbors around her.
"She has been without a father since she was a child. Ever since they moved here, it's been just the two of them. Hao Wenjuan's mother is very beautiful, and she has inherited her mother's beauty, too. You haven't seen it, the mother and daughter standing together look like sisters."
"Yes, and it's not easy for Doctor Hao either, a woman raising a child on her own. But the child is also very hardworking. She went to college this year and it seems she got into a very famous medical school. Isn't she going to be a doctor like her mother?"
The neighbors here seem to have a good impression of the mother and daughter, and most of them say that her family has had a difficult life.
But a woman with curly hair said with disdain.
"What do you know? Doctor Hao is very powerful. I advise you to take care of your own men. Doctor Hao is good-looking, but of course, he probably doesn't look down on our men."
