Chapter 371 Book
The tenderness she revealed enveloped Chen Zhuyi like a tide. She sniffed again, as if she was about to cry.
"Don't feel guilty about what you've done. Pregnancy itself has many uncontrollable factors. Our family allows you to choose what you eat."
Su Yunya put her arm around Chen Zhuyi's shoulders and made assurance.
The warmth and friendship he felt from them made Chen Zhuyi curl the corners of his lips and smile.
Perhaps, she has lost a lot of things, but the people of the Huo family are helping her make up for it in the best way they can. Now, she can feel no less love than before.
"Mom, you guys are so good to me. I don't know how I can ever repay you."
Chen Zhu's eyes were red, and what he said was naturally true.
Upon hearing this, Su Yunya's expression changed. She emphasized in a tone of extreme disapproval, "Because you're so kind, we'll treat you better. We're a family, and there's nothing to repay."
The serious tone dispelled the tension and panic in Chen Zhuyi's heart.
She couldn't help but laugh and nodded heavily, with tears welling up in her eyes.
Huo Jinzhi, who was standing by, couldn't help but feel a little awkward when he saw this scene. He could only hug Chen Zhu more tightly in his arms, his eyes full of seriousness.
The two of them left the place while chatting together.
Because of the birth, they would not leave Beijing in the short term. Huo Jinzhi had originally planned to set aside some time, but things did not go as planned.
He received news from his superiors that there was an important matter and he had to go on a mission right away. He only had time to say a few words to Chen Zhu before leaving.
"That's what being a soldier is like. You and your wife spend less time together than together. We are sorry for you." Su Yunya looked at her son's hurriedly leaving back and only sighed before speaking, with a hint of heaviness in her eyes.
This time, she could probably guess what he was worried about.
In recent years, as the domestic situation has gradually opened up, educated youth have gradually returned to the city, and many lawless elements have been waiting for opportunities to make huge profits!
I don’t know how many ignorant young people have been deceived and are still helping those foreign traitors to obtain information about our country.
Some people may not have intended to do this at first, but they just don't understand the pros and cons. This requires the active cooperation of relevant propaganda departments to control everything as soon as possible.
"Although I can stay with you during this period, I cannot completely give up work." Su Yunya looked as if she wanted to say something but stopped, and sighed softly.
The peaceful days were not going to last long. Chen Zhu knew that this was an extremely dangerous era. Everyone was working towards a common goal, and she was no exception.
"We are all striving for a common goal. To me, this is the best thing. The rest...is not that important, is it?"
Chen Zhu smiled and gave an extremely firm answer.
The moment she heard these words, Su Yunya felt excited. In this best era, they would only fight for their common ideals.
Where they live, the sound of gossip has completely disappeared.
Occasionally, someone would see Chen Zhuyi and compete to help him. They were all smiling and friendly, as if the rumors at the beginning had never happened.
Whether they are convinced sincerely or just pretending to be so is not important to Chen Zhuyi.
She has the ability to take absolute initiative and can ignore voices she doesn't like.
"Comrade Xiao Shen." An aunt came over with a smile, but there was obvious flattery in her eyes, and she stood in front of Chen Zhuyi awkwardly.
These days, Su Yunya was very busy, no one knew what had happened, so she could only let Chen Zhuyi go out for a walk by himself.
She was not a spoiled child, nor was she the type to insist on having someone around her, and no one had taken the initiative to look for her along the way.
The unexpected appearance of such an aunt made Chen Zhuyi curious and he looked at her with a smile.
"Can you help me deliver these things to the east side of the city? You young people are very agile. My child is sick recently and needs to be taken care of. Running back and forth... I'm afraid it will be too late."
As my aunt spoke, she sighed again, with a hint of sadness in her eyes. If you didn't know her, you would think she had encountered something very difficult to solve.
"It's just a few books. You can take care of the children and deliver them yourself in time. Why should I go all this way?"
Chen Zhuyi weighed it briefly and felt the weight of the package, and a hint of doubt appeared in his eyes.
To be honest, although everyone has been able to accept him recently, their feelings for each other are not really that deep.
There was no need for my aunt to ask him for help in delivering things.
It smells a bit like a conspiracy.
Several guesses emerged in Shen Zhuyi's mind.
The aunt herself waved her hand nonchalantly and explained with a smile, "The person who wanted the books is a good friend of mine who I've had for years. She's never asked me for anything before, but now... she just wants a few books."
"He said he wanted to help his village become prosperous as quickly as possible. I thought... since I can help, I'll do my best."
Helping others make money is a big deal, especially in this particularly simple era. When Chen Zhu heard this, he didn't know how to refuse for a moment.
She lowered her head and glanced at it casually. She even reached out and briefly scratched it, only to see the cover. She couldn't help but raise her eyebrows in confusion: "If you don't mind, can I take a look?"
"Of course you can. I'm afraid you have more of this stuff than we do." Auntie really didn't think it was a big deal.
After hearing this, Chen Zhuyi opened the book without hesitation.
Most of the things recorded in the book are the rapid development and changes in the country. It even comes with a lot of black and white pictures, which were taken by people on the front line to enhance the national confidence.
Chen Zhuyi's expression finally changed. She stared at her aunt, suspicion thick in her eyes, "Are you sure these are really close friends?"
This is not a simple gift of a book at all.
If this matter is discovered by others, my aunt will most likely be arrested as an enemy spy.
And there is no way that Chen Zhuyi, who passed the book in the middle, would have a good ending!
She was not sure whether her aunt was sincere or not, so she could only make a bold judgment based on her aunt's expression.
"Isn't it just an ordinary book? Could it possibly record something remarkable?" The aunt also felt that Chen Zhuyi's mood was not right. She was not panicked, but just kept her eyes open, full of confusion.
