As Yin expected, the two men were indeed selected in the end.
Lu Shuqi was successfully selected. The other one was also an educated youth from Shanghai, whose family seemed to have connections in the supply and marketing cooperative.
There's no way around it. Don't talk about fairness or unfairness. Everything we do is to help Yunnan's specialty products sell more.
The matter has been settled, and no matter how unwilling one is, there's nothing that can be done.
Some of the educated youth who were active and had capable families thought that if Shanghai had an office, then their city could also set up an office.
Yu Yin was unaware of the turmoil among the educated youth; they were seeing Lu Shuqi off.
This time when I go back, we won't see each other again until next May, so I must make sure Shuqi has a good meal and drinks before I leave.
The five members of the Chu family next door, along with Wang Wenye and his two companions, and Yu Yin's family, gathered in Yu Yin's courtyard. The adults were laughing and the children were shouting; it was incredibly lively!
"Xiao Lu, your cooking skills are pretty good! The old duck and bamboo shoot soup is so flavorful, one sip and it warms me up inside." Chu Jianguo can't cook, but he's quite good at commenting, which makes his wife roll her eyes.
"Aunt Su, why are you rolling your eyes?" An'an not only has sharp eyesight, but she also speaks quickly!
"Ha ha……"
Chu Jianguo was mercilessly mocked, but he didn't mind, since it was all his wife's fault.
"My dad is the best! He can cook delicious food, do laundry, and braid hair. How can my dad be so amazing!" An'an said, munching on a duck wing and showering him with compliments.
Chu Weiguo looked enviously at the girl's little darling, then at his own brat, who was eating with his head down and eyes closed.
Chu Chen looked up at his father and said, "Dad, when will you be able to do everything like An'an's dad?" Chu Chen was also helpless. An'an was too good at showing off, and he was outdone by her.
"Ha ha……"
Another burst of laughter erupted. Chu Jianguo didn't want to talk anymore. Wasn't eating meat more enjoyable?
Pingping and Yangyang looked at An'an and the other two, and took a step back at the same time. They were too childish.
The children ate and drank their fill and ran off, leaving only a group of adults at the table.
"Shuqi, do your best this time. Opportunities are for those who are prepared. Don't worry about useless things." Chu Jianguo has never seen any real storms along the way, but he has experienced his fair share of minor ones, so he still has a lot of authority.
"Understood, Director." Lu Shuqi listened attentively to the opinions.
"Alright, Shuqi isn't a child anymore. Hurry up and drink your soup. Think about whether you can learn to cook a few dishes, so your son won't envy An'an. You'll feel ashamed then," Su Yixian complained about her husband.
"Alright, I'll have the soup and see if I can figure out Xiao Lu's secret recipe so I can make it for you guys when I get back!" Chu Jianguo said with a smile. Cooking? That's a long shot for him.
"Brother Chu, you don't need to think about it too much. I'll write down the recipe and ingredients for you in a bit, and you can just follow along." Lu Shurui was sly as ever, knowing full well that Chu Jianguo didn't like cooking, he was still trying to provoke him.
Wang Wenye and Qian Weiguo dared not be presumptuous in front of Uncle Chu, and ate their food in silence. This was much tastier than the cafeteria food, so they had to eat more.
The stars twinkle in the sky, and the bonfire burns brightly on the ground!
Yu Yin touched her big belly and looked at her friends laughing and chatting around her, feeling a sense of peaceful tranquility.
The music has ended and the audience has dispersed. This farewell awaits the next reunion!
After seeing Lu Shuqi off, Yu Yin's belly had grown even bigger.
When I went to the hospital for a checkup, Dr. Lin said that the baby was doing well and the fetal heartbeat was fine.
"Aunt Lin, are you sure there are two fetal heartbeats?" Yu Yin asked nervously.
"Yes, what's wrong?" Dr. Lin's examination showed everything was fine, there were no problems.
"Recently, I've been feeling fetal movement, but it seems like only one baby is moving, and I can't feel the other one moving." Yu Yin was a little worried, as the original owner of this body was slow to react after birth.
Yu's mother said it was because she had been in the womb for too long, but no one could explain the specific reason.
Especially lately, she's been feeling that her other child isn't moving, and she's worried that what if the child inherits her slow reaction time? She doesn't want her child to go through the same unfortunate childhood that the original owner of this body had.
"Don't worry, it should be fine. The baby's heartbeat sounds very strong. The lack of movement might be because the baby is absorbing nutrients well and is growing big with limited space, so it's not as noticeable." Dr. Lin's words made a lot of sense, and Yu Yin decided to stop overthinking. There wasn't much time left before delivery.
"Yinyin, everything will be alright. This is the time when you should avoid getting upset. Our baby will be healthy!" Lu Shurui hadn't heard Yu Yin mention this before. Was she afraid he would worry?
"I know, but I can't help thinking about whether there will be any problems with the baby. The closer I get to giving birth, the less I can control my thoughts." Yu Yin knew that this was unacceptable.
After leaving the hospital, the two slowly walked home.
“Shurui, if the child is slow to react like I was when I was a child, we must not rush him, but be patient with him.” Deep in Yu Yin’s memory, her mother’s constant urging left little Yu Yin feeling helpless and unable to react.
She can still feel the helplessness and guilt of a little girl, and it makes her heart ache.
“I know that no matter what, she is still our child, regardless of her appearance, intelligence, or health. It’s fate that she came into our family and became our child, and we must cherish this fate.” Lu Shurui comforted Yu Yin. Indeed, sometimes he felt that his mother-in-law was not a qualified mother and was too heartless towards Yu Yin.
His mother was also biased, but fortunately, she considered herself an educated person and couldn't say anything unpleasant.
But then I thought, even though his mother doesn't say anything harsh, it's still hard for her to stay silent.
It's quite oppressive to watch you coldly without saying a word. Fortunately, he spent most of his childhood with his grandparents.
