Su Ying and Gu Sinian's attention were completely diverted to Old Master Gu.
Everyone at the table stopped eating and looked at Gu Huadong, wanting to know what name he had given the child, because they couldn't keep calling him "baby."
Gu Huadong chuckled, "The boy's name is Gu Lichen, and the girl's name is Gu Letong."
Qin Fang kept repeating the two names. They were really good names; not only did they sound nice, but they also flowed smoothly. He was the first person to accept these two names.
"The two names you chose for your in-laws are very well done, really nice and pleasant to hear. Let's call them Lichen and Letong."
Du Yunying, sitting to the side, also thought the name was quite nice. "It sounds good. You could call her Chenchen or Tongtong as a nickname..."
Du Yunying, who was quick to speak, realized what she had said and quickly covered her mouth.
"Yingying... Auntie didn't mean to say this to hurt your feelings. This is what I really think: even though the child hasn't been found yet, she should have everything that belongs to her."
Su Ying nodded with tears in her eyes. Yes, even though the child hasn't been found yet, everything that belongs to her shouldn't be taken away.
Last night's dream felt so real. My daughter lives in a small mountain village. Although life is a bit poor, her adoptive parents treat her very, very well, and that's enough.
Only when she is certain that her child is safe and happy until he is found will she feel a little better.
"I understand. Everyone, let's eat quickly, and then we'll go to the auditorium to watch the show."
Qin Fang and Gu Sinian didn't seem very interested; it seemed better to keep that thing at home with their wives.
The dancing is just a few simple movements, and it seems that nothing has changed over the years.
The chorus performances are pretty much the same every year, and there's nothing interesting to watch at those kinds of galas anymore. It's really more practical to stay home with my wife.
"You young people should go see it, I'm not going, I have to stay home with my wife."
Gu Sinian also shook his head, "I'm not going either. I'd rather stay home and take care of the kids than watch the Spring Festival Gala."
Su Ying's lips twitched. She had never attended a party at the base and didn't know what it was like. Her father and husband were so resistant, so it probably wasn't anything good.
She immediately lost interest.
"Then we won't go. We can each do our own thing after dinner."
Qin Fang had no intention of going at all, nodding vigorously, "Okay. I'm not going."
Three years later, the Qin and Gu families still hadn't given up searching for little Gu Letong, but there was still no news.
We've inquired in the surrounding villages, but no one has brought the child back in the past two years.
Gu Sinian listened to his subordinates' report, his heart sinking completely.
Let's keep this from my wife for now. Although she hasn't shown any signs of disappointment these past two years, he's the one who shares a bed with her, so how could he not understand her feelings?
He would still call out Gu Letong's name in his dreams at night, knowing that she missed the child very much.
Two years have passed, and the child is now two years old, the cutest and most adorable age.
All the little rascals in the family are so cute, soft and cuddly, and with a touch of adorable charm.
It would definitely be even cuter if it were a daughter.
well.
The dream I had back then could not be realized.
When the young wife was pregnant, she hoped to have a baby girl. After her wish came true, the baby girl went missing.
Why is it so difficult to raise a miniature version of a wife? He was inexplicably taken back to Beijing by the Gu family when he was a child, and he was never by his wife's side or able to watch her grow up. This has always been his regret.
He finally had a daughter, hoping to make up for this regret, but instead she played such a cruel joke on him.
"Battalion Commander Zhang, I hope you will keep the matter I asked you to investigate a secret, including your wife."
Zhang Guoqing nodded. It was Commander Gu's wife who saved his daughter Yaya, and it was also his sister-in-law who asked his wife to give him a chance.
He promised his wife that Jiang Chuntang would no longer appear at the garrison, and that he would not take the mother and daughter back to their hometown for holidays.
The two pairs of mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law lost all the politeness they had shown when they first met, and completely tore away the last shred of decorum.
Zhang Guoqing certainly knew what was most important. He sent one-third of his monthly salary back to his parents in the countryside as retirement money, and gave the rest to his child's mother.
Only then did they gain Zhao Fang's forgiveness, and their precarious family was saved.
Whether or not to have a second child, Zhang Guoqing respects his wife's decision. Ya Ya has suffered so much and needs her parents' love. Whether or not to have a second child is a matter for the future.
The two were discussing how to cover up their lie when they got home when the highest level alarm sounded at their base.
The two quickly tidied themselves up and hurriedly ran down to assemble.
On the playground.
Qin Fang gave a speech.
"Qingshuihe, a hundred kilometers away from our post, is surrounded by mountains. An earthquake occurred last night, burying nearly half of the villagers. The higher-ups ordered us, those of us stationed not far from Qingshuihe, to get there as quickly as possible."
"The rescue is urgent, so we won't let everyone go home to say goodbye. We'll leave it to the clerical staff. Everyone, go back to your dorms immediately, grab all your gear, and meet at the playground in ten minutes."
Gu Sinian knew that ten minutes wasn't enough time. If he ran faster, he might be able to go back to the family compound and talk to his wife about the disaster relief efforts, so she wouldn't worry too much.
Gu Sinian acted on his thoughts immediately. As soon as Qin Fang said to disband, Gu Sinian started running, with Qin Fang shouting behind him.
"If there is still enough time, please tell your Aunt Yunying that I also want to go out for disaster relief."
Gu Sinian was too lazy to pay attention to him. He knew perfectly well that ten minutes was not enough time. It was already tiring enough for him to run back and forth. It was already quite good that he could finish his own business.
