She hasn't replied to the letter or made a phone call since receiving it.
She has to call him today.
The call was quickly connected, and Ruan Yunxi explained her purpose: "I'm looking for Gu Weizhou, the commander of the 149th Regiment of the Navy."
The operator said, "Commander Gu is currently on a mission and is temporarily unavailable. Please leave a message if you need anything."
Ruan Yunxi said, "Tell him that Ruan Yunxi called to ask if we are getting married, and ask him to call back as soon as possible."
The person on the other end was clearly taken aback for a moment: "Please say it again."
Ruan Yunxi could only repeat what she had just said, knowing that the area was remote, the signal was poor, and it was inevitable that she couldn't hear clearly.
After hearing this, the operator said, "Okay, I will inform Commander Gu as soon as possible. Please wait patiently for a call back."
After hanging up the phone, Ruan Yunxi breathed a sigh of relief.
Granny Hua asked anxiously, "How is it?"
Ruan Yunxi explained, "We've been dispatched on a mission and need to wait for a reply."
Granny Hua was anxious: "This...when will we get a reply? We need to go to the countryside within three days."
Just as Ruan Yunxi was about to comfort Granny Hua, someone else came to the house.
This time it wasn't people from the neighborhood committee, but Lu Minghua who brought Ning Zhenzhen; they couldn't wait to get the jade gourd.
Seeing this scumbag and despicable woman appear before her, Ruan Yunxi wanted nothing more than to tear their faces apart.
Granny Hua already knew that Lu Minghua had ill intentions, so she was much less enthusiastic about him and looked at him with anger.
Lu Minghua assumed that the old woman knew about the family heirloom jade gourd and was unhappy about it.
"Yunxi, I've come to get something," Lu Minghua explained his purpose.
Ruan Yunxi, playing along, looked at Granny Hua and said, "Granny, where is that jade pendant? Take it out and give it to Brother Minghua."
Granny Hua knew the jade gourd was fake, but she still reluctantly took it out: "You'd better treat our young lady well from now on, otherwise the master and madam will not let you off if they knew in the afterlife."
Lu Minghua: "......"
Ning Zhenzhen, who came along, immediately said, "Don't worry, Granny. My brother likes Sister Yunxi the most and will definitely treat her well. When we go to Hong Kong, we will be able to live a good life. It's much better there than Shanghai."
Ruan Yunxi looked at Ning Zhenzhen, who had a calculating look on her face, and smiled: "Yes, we'll be free once we get to Hong Kong."
Lu Minghua nodded heavily, wanting to say a few more words to Ruan Yunxi, but Ning Zhenzhen secretly tugged at his sleeve.
He understood: "Yunxi, my parents are waiting for us to come back. You should quickly get your things ready. I'll call a car tonight to take you to the dock. We need to act quickly, as we received a notice to go to the countryside and we have to report within three days."
To dissuade Ruan Yunxi from going to the countryside, Lu Minghua said, "We educated youth from Shanghai mostly went to rubber plantations in Yunnan Province. It's hot there, there are lots of mosquitoes, and the rubber is poisonous. If it gets on your skin, it will cause unbearable itching, ulceration, and sores. You're so fair and delicate, you definitely can't stand it."
Ruan Yunxi looked frightened and shook her head in refusal: "I'm not going to Yunnan Province. I'll go with you."
Having achieved his goal, Lu Minghua almost burst out laughing: "Okay, I'll come and haul the goods for you tonight. Don't worry, my dad arranged the boat; it's safe and reliable."
Damn it!
Your family is the most unreliable one!
With the jade gourd in hand, Ning Zhenzhen couldn't wait to try it out and see if it could really open up a spatial dimension: "Sister Yunxi, we're leaving now, see you tomorrow!"
Ruan Yunxi smiled and said, "Okay!"
Watching the scumbag and the bitch ride away on their bikes, Ruan Yunxi's smile vanished: "Granny, I want to eat braised pork tonight, please make some extra."
Granny Hua hesitated, then asked, "Yunxi... are you really going to pack up the things and send them to the dock?"
Ruan Yunxi shook her head: "I have plans. Granny, please don't ask too many questions. There are some things you're better off not knowing."
Looking at the confident Ruan Yunxi, Granny Hua nodded: "Granny won't ask, Miss, you must take good care of yourself."
