Chapter 12 Are you sure your body can handle it?
"Mom, this is the result of our careful consideration..."
Su Xiangwan repeated the reasons and concerns she had previously shared with Gu Yanxiao to Gu's parents, finally getting them to agree.
Gu Yanfei looked at Su Xiangwan with a surprised expression.
It felt like I was meeting this sister-in-law for the first time.
Is the poised, considerate, and thoughtful person in front of me really the same foolish and demanding sister-in-law I knew before?
It's like you've become a completely different person.
After accepting that Su Xiangwan would also be going to the countryside, Gu's father said, "Since Xiangwan is going to Liaoning Province with us, our preparations are a bit insufficient. For one thing, we need to prepare more meat ration coupons, exchange more cloth ration coupons, and also get hand warmers... I'll write to our comrades in Liaoning Province now..."
Mother Gu also started to get busy: "We need to prepare more cotton and other things. Xiang Wan is afraid of the cold, and the cotton quilts we prepared before might not be thick enough, so we need to prepare more. Also, when she goes into postpartum confinement, we need to prepare enough chickens and eggs..."
Because they were worried about Su Xiangwan's trip to Liaoning Province, Gu's parents barely ate any dinner before heading out.
The task of delivering food to Gu Yanxiao fell to Su Xiangwan once again.
As she passed by Cao Zhiyuan and Gu Yanni's hospital room, seeing that no one was inside, she casually put Gu Yanni's household registration book back.
When they arrived at Gu Yanxiao's hospital room, they saw Shao Zijie talking to Gu Yanxiao.
When he saw Su Xiangwan, Shao Zijie's gaze was complicated, but he still greeted her politely, "Sister-in-law is here, so I'll be going now."
I didn't realize it before, but now it seems that the team leader really cherishes Su Xiangwan.
Such a huge favor was used up on something that was both important and unimportant, just because Su Xiangwan wanted to go to Liaoning Province with them.
He really felt sorry for the regimental commander!
Su Xiangwan was a little confused by Shao Zijie's gaze. She nodded to him before entering the ward.
"What's wrong with him? Why is he acting like he's seeing me for the first time?"
Su Xiangwan opened the lunchbox and arranged the dishes while asking questions.
Gu Yanxiao set the dishes with her and casually said, "It's nothing, I just asked him to arrange some things."
"What is it? Can you tell me?" Su Xiangwan said, then, as if she had thought of something, added, "If it's something that's inconvenient for me to know, then there's no need to say it."
“There’s nothing inconvenient about it.” Gu Yanxiao put a piece of food on her plate before saying, “It’s just that I asked him to contact our former leader and use a favor to change our assignment from being sent down to the countryside to being sent to the rural areas.”
Su Xiangwan was taken aback, then looked at him solemnly: "This favor must be very valuable!"
Gu Yanxiao smiled gently: "No matter how precious it is, if you don't use it, it's just empty space."
Su Xiangwan sighed: "If I hadn't wanted to go to Liaoning Province with you, you wouldn't have used this favor so easily, right?"
She remembered that in the original novel, when Gu Yanxiao went to Liaoning Province, it was under the pretext of being sent to a lower-level position, and he did not use this favor.
However... at that time, Gu Yanxiao looked like he was heartbroken and despondent. Going to the countryside or being sent down to the countryside made no difference to him!
“It’s not easy.” Gu Yanxiao looked at her earnestly. “It’s something to be cherished.”
Gu Yanxiao's appearance was already stunning, and at this moment, he was being looked at so intently by those beautiful eyes.
Su Xiangwan felt enveloped in a beautiful and enchanting atmosphere, and even the beauty mark under the man's eye seemed to exude a seductive aura.
"Gurgle!"
With her mouth dry, Su Xiangwan subconsciously picked up the water from the bedside table and took a big gulp.
Only after finishing the drink did she realize that she had drunk from Gu Yanxiao's water glass.
Seeing the smile on his lips, Su Xiangwan snorted and raised her chin arrogantly.
What's wrong?
She even has his child.
We did everything we were supposed to do, like kissing, hugging, and sleeping together.
What's wrong with drinking from his water cup?
What's wrong? !
Looking at his wife, whose face clearly said, "I feel guilty but I won't admit it," Gu Yanxiao affectionately reached out and wiped the water from the corner of her mouth.
Then, considerately, she picked up the thermos and refilled the empty cup with hot water.
"The water is too hot now, let it cool down a bit before you drink it."
"Oh." Su Xiangwan's face flushed a little. Clearly, the other person didn't take it to heart that he drank from her water cup. She was just being too sensitive.
To avoid further awkwardness, Su Xiangwan subconsciously changed the subject: "Did the doctor say when you were discharged?"
"There's another test result coming out tomorrow morning, and then you can be discharged."
Su Xiangwan nodded: "My parents said that we'll be leaving for Liaoning Province in about five days at the latest. Are you sure you're in good health?"
Gu Yanxiao paused for a moment, looked up at his wife's earnest question, and said in a deep voice, "Okay."
Su Xiangwan touched her nose. She felt that there was a hint of resentment in Gu Yanxiao's "okay".
It must be my imagination!
After finishing her meal, Su Xiangwan discussed with Gu Yanxiao what she needed to prepare for her trip to Liaoning Province before leaving with her lunchbox.
When I passed by Cao Zhiyuan and Gu Yanni's hospital room, I saw the two of them handing out wedding candy.
Upon closer listening, I realized that the two of them had just gone to get their marriage certificate.
Su Xiangwan breathed a sigh of relief. Luckily, she returned the household registration book in time, otherwise it would have really delayed the two people's good time.
Such a perfect match, it would be a waste not to bind them together.
It's just unknown what these two will be like after the Cao family's affair comes to light.
The nurses received the wedding candy from Cao Zhiyuan and his family, and their faces showed a mixture of emotions.
The candy itself wasn't bad, but... these two people were practically fished out of a cesspool, so the candy they gave us was really inedible!
After all, the smell hasn't dissipated yet.
Su Xiangwan also fanned her nose and prepared to leave.
Then Hu Xiangyang came running towards them in a panic: "Brother Cao! Brother Cao! Something bad has happened! Your dad has been arrested by the police!"
"What?" Cao Zhiyuan, who was distributing wedding candy, suddenly changed his expression. "What happened? Why was my dad arrested by the police?"
"I heard... I heard that the documents that were lost last time were handed over to the police."
As Cao Zhiyuan's confidant, Hu Xiangyang naturally knew about the fact that the stronghold had been emptied.
But those things couldn't be done in the light of day, so naturally they didn't dare to make any moves.
But who could have imagined...
At this point, Hu Xiangyang pointed at Gu Yanni with a look of hatred and said, "Brother Cao, we were all deceived by Gu Yanni. She was the one who took our things, and she was also the one who handed those documents over to the police..."
