Chapter 134 Confirmed
The military compound is one of Kyoto's most powerful institutions, so security is naturally tight. From the moment the car got a little over a thousand meters away, there were very few pedestrians. Upon entering the compound, one had to register, and their name, age, work unit, and supporting documents were all verified. After confirming that everything was correct, Ye Chi signed the form before allowing them to pass.
As the car slowly drove into the compound, we saw a group of soldiers armed with live ammunition passing by in an orderly formation. They were patrolling soldiers.
The car drove for two or three minutes before stopping in front of a courtyard with a two-story building. Ye Chi honked the horn, and a woman in her thirties wearing an apron opened the door with a smile.
The two cars drove into the yard one after the other, and a tall, energetic man in his sixties stood on the steps. Beside him was a woman in her forties, with delicate features and a gentle temperament.
Gu Jianguo and the others got out of the car. Ye Xingjian came up to them without any airs, smiled and shook hands with Gu Jianguo, "Are you Gu Yimin's father?"
Gu Jianguo greeted him with a smile, "Yes, hello, Chief."
Ye Xingjian laughed, "You're welcome. We'll all be family from now on."
Gu Jianguo called his wife and daughters over to greet Ye Xingjian. Seeing that all four sisters of Gu Yimin were good-looking, Ye Xingjian patted Gu Jianguo on the shoulder and said, "Brother Jianguo, you are so lucky!"
Gu Jianguo's heart trembled when he was called "brother". In terms of age, Ye Xingjian was in his sixties, while Gu Jianguo was less than forty, a complete generation difference. In terms of status, they were even on different levels, but he could only accept it when he was called that.
"Yimin, do you still remember me?" Ye Xingjian asked Gu Yimin with a smile.
Gu Yimin stepped forward and said with a smile: "I remember, you are more energetic than before."
She was a little nervous. After all, Ye Xingjian was no longer the Ye Xingjian of Shanshui Town. He was now a high-ranking military commander with full military power. But she did her best to suppress her nervousness and appeared quite natural.
Ye Xingjian was very satisfied with her and the performance of the Gu family. He felt that even if the two families were not a good match, this marriage could still be concluded.
"Don't stand outside, let's go inside and talk." Liu Yuzhen smiled and walked over to Wang Yueju. She had to admit that the women in the Gu family were all good-looking. Even Wang Yueju, who was almost forty years old, still looked charming.
No wonder Ye Chi fell in love with Gu Yimin, all men are lustful.
"You are so lucky. All your children are handsome." Liu Yuzhen said to Wang Yueju with a smile.
Wang Yueju smiled and replied, "Sometimes he can be quite naughty."
Wang Yueju smiled and followed Liu Yuzhen into the house, but her mind was in a state of confusion. Judging from her age, this chief's wife couldn't be Ye Chi's biological mother. Stepmothers and stepsons rarely have a good relationship, but this chief's wife smiled so kindly, it was unclear whether she was truly happy or just pretending.
The family is complicated!
Ye Chi instantly lost a lot of points in front of Comrade Wang Yueju.
The meal wasn't ready yet, so everyone sat on the sofa in the living room and chatted. Ye Xingjian mainly talked about his past in Shanshui Town and his gratitude to Yimin. Liu Yuzhen sat beside him, smiling gently.
Gu Yimin sat next to Wang Yueju and could feel Liu Yuzhen's gaze turning towards her from time to time. Although Liu Yuzhen always had a smile on her face, she just didn't feel any kindness from her.
After talking for a while, a person came in. She was in her thirties, tall, and looked a bit like Ye Chi. She was probably Ye Chi's sister. As soon as she came in, her eyes fell on herself and Er Hui with a scrutinizing look. Gu Yimin suddenly felt uncomfortable again.
Ye Ling's gaze lingered on Gu Yimin and Gu Erhui for a moment, then she smiled and greeted the Gu family. When she realized which one was Gu Yimin, she shook her hand and said, "Thank you so much! My dad has been thinking about you all these years."
Gu Yimin was embarrassed by her enthusiasm and smiled, "It was Uncle Ye who helped me first."
Ye Xingjian laughed heartily after hearing this. "My little help to you is far less than the kindness you showed me in saving my life."
At this time, the nanny came over and said that the meal was ready, so everyone went to the dining room to eat. Because there were so many people, the large dining table was full, and everyone ate and talked. Liu Yuzhen looked at Wang Yueju who was sitting next to her and asked, "I heard that you are going to buy a house in Kyoto?"
"Yes, to prepare the child for school." Wang Yueju didn't have the habit of praising her children in front of others. She joked, "The Gu family hasn't produced any educated people in generations. My wife wants to put some pressure on the child because she's doing well in her studies. But she may not pass the exam."
Gu Siqing wanted to laugh when she heard this. Mom, what you said sounds like a nouveau riche.
Liu Yuzhen naturally didn't believe what she said. She thought that the Gu family and Ye Chi were colluding to siphon Ye Xingjian's money.
"Which house do you like?" Liu Yuzhen asked.
"Ye Chi found several houses and we are considering which one to buy." Wang Yueju said.
After hearing what she said, Ye Xingjian said, "If you're going to buy one, buy one near the Forbidden City. It's a bit more expensive, but the location is good."
Ye Chi told him that the Gu family was engaged in clothing wholesale. Although Ye Xingjian himself did not do business, he had some general knowledge in this area and knew that the Gu family could still come up with more than 10,000 yuan.
Gu Jianguo also thought that the house next to the Forbidden City was good, so he said, "Then listen to the chief and buy the one next to the Forbidden City."
Ye Xingjian nodded. "As for the formalities, if Ye Chi is busy, I can ask my guards to help."
Buying a house involves many procedures, and without acquaintances, it could take a long time. Gu Jianguo agreed. Seeing that they had agreed to the house after a few rounds of negotiations, Liu Yuzhen decided on it, which cost over 10,000 yuan.
It would take them several years to save up more than 10,000 yuan. They absolutely couldn't let Ye Chi take so much all at once. She smiled at Wang Yueju and said, "Although the Star Sword allowance is not low, more than 10,000 yuan is also a lot of money. It's really a bit difficult for us to take it. You don't know the expenses of this family..."
"What are you talking about?" Ye Xingjian interrupted him angrily.
Liu Yuzhen's eyes instantly filled with tears. "Xingjian, I'm telling the truth. We don't have much savings. If we spend more than 10,000 yuan to buy them a house, how are we going to live in the future?"
Ye Xingjian was so angry that he almost died. When did he say he would buy a house for the Gu family? Just as he was about to open his mouth to scold him, the little girl from the Gu family who had been eating with her head down spoke up: "We have money, we didn't ask your family to pay for us to buy a house!"
Gu Sanjing continued unhappily, counting on her fingers: "Xiao Si also said that our family wants to buy five houses, one for my parents, and one for each of the four of us. If Uncle Han's family buys like this, then Uncle Han and Aunt Han will have one, and Brother Zhengping and Erpang will each have one, for a total of three houses, and our two families will have eight houses combined."
After she finished speaking, she looked at Ye Chi and said, "You haven't found enough houses."
Everyone: ""
Gu Siqing: My family is nouveau riche, confirmed!
