Chapter 24 Relatives



"They are all my family, there is nothing inappropriate." Gu Zhiye lowered his eyes and glanced at Su Niannian: "Or do you not want your brother to live in the family compound?"

When I heard that I could live in the military family compound,

It was the red brick building that seemed out of reach that day.

Su Jianshan's eyes suddenly lit up. He turned his head and said to Su Niannian excitedly, "I have never been in the army or lived in a building in my life. Sister, I want to live with my brother-in-law. You can come to us when you are free. I will cook and stew meat for you. I promise not to cause any trouble for you. Really! I swear..."

Su Jianshan was almost panicking.

Gu Zhiye calmly pulled his brother-in-law to the back, silently waiting for Su Niannian's answer. As long as Su Jianshan lived with him, Su Niannian would have no choice but to go to the family compound every week.

Su Niannian was in a dilemma. "Okay, okay."

In a place that the brother and sister cannot see,

Gu Zhiye smiled imperceptibly.

After a series of events, Su Niannian's trust in Gu Zhiye has increased significantly, and she believes that he can arrange things well.

Gu Zhiye, who seems cold-hearted,

In fact, doing things as a person makes her feel at ease.

This sense of steadiness has nothing to do with money, but is based on a kind of trust. With a beautiful vision for future life in mind, Su Niannian, Liu Tao, Liao Yu and others stepped into the staff cafeteria. When getting food, the young man in charge of scooping the dishes shook his hand, and two more pieces of chicken fell on Su Niannian's plate. She subconsciously looked up, but met Su Jianshan's excited eyes.

The other person was wearing a cotton mask and the clothes of a logistics worker.

Scoop vegetables and serve rice for the soldiers in line.

Su Niannian's pupils suddenly shrank. Just as she was about to speak, she heard Su Jianshan excitedly say, "Next! Next!"

"..."

No matter how many doubts Su Niannian had, she buried them in her heart. Now that Su Jianshan lived in the staff compound, which was still Gu Zhiye's territory, keeping a distance from both of them was the best choice. However, the fact that Su Jianshan appeared in the staff cafeteria caused waves in her heart, and she didn't want Gu Zhiye to make a mistake because of her.

The rice on the plate was almost broken. Liu Tao looked at her friend's plate, which was obviously twice as much, and asked in confusion: "Niannian, what's wrong? Can't you finish it?"

As a matter of course, she took a chopstick and ate the food in the other person's bowl.

Su Jianshan's eyes in the glass window almost popped out.

Su Niannian smiled and said, "It seems like I hit a little too much."

"Good-looking comrades do have privileges..." Liu Tao said with a teasing look on her face.

"By the way, the service worker who served the food just now seemed to be new. Is the cafeteria expanding its enrollment recently? There are a lot of new faces..."

Liao Yu, who had been eating, finally looked up at the two of them. As someone who had been attending meetings for a long time, she was always well-informed. She glanced in the direction of Su Jianshan and said thoughtfully, "It seems that they are expanding their recruitment. Many people have been assigned to temporary positions, that is, workers are selected from outside the army. By the way, this matter is under the charge of Captain Zhang..."

Su Niannian was shocked: "Captain Zhang?"

"He is Zhang Jie Zhang, the deputy head of the canteen's logistics department. It is said that he retired from the battlefield and has hidden injuries, so he was assigned to the logistics position, responsible for purchasing and management. He was the one who recruited this group of logistics workers. He has a good eye..."

"Liu Tao--!" Liao Yu subconsciously glared at Liu Tao who was talking nonsense. There were many people in the cafeteria and many things were not something their art troupe could comment on casually. If they were not careful, they would get notified at the least, but in serious cases, they would have to take off their military uniforms.

Liu Tao quickly slapped her lips, looking embarrassed.

"By the way, there is a tour to the Red Flag Commune in Zeng County, City A this week. Are you going?"

Liao Yu shook his head and refused directly.

Su Niannian was about to shake her head when Liao Yu grabbed her arm. His eyes were particularly sincere, and he spoke word by word, "Team One will definitely not take this kind of rural mission seriously, and the candidates are basically selected from Teams Two and Three, so it's voluntary, but I hope you can go.

I can't travel far because of my leg injury, but Taozi, Nian Nian, as the captain, there is something I must say in advance.

The purpose of our art troupe's existence is to bring joy and comfort to the vast majority of toiling masses in dire straits. Although the imperial capital is the holy place in everyone's hearts, every performance is important. You don't have to go to a lively place to stand out. Sometimes, leaders prefer good comrades who can endure hardships..."

Su Niannian's eyes moved slightly, and she immediately understood Liao Yu's hint.

She swallowed the food in her mouth and nodded.

"Captain, don't worry, I will definitely sign up."

Since she had nothing to do, she might as well take this trip...

Last week, Su Niannian and I made an appointment for the three of us to go to a state-owned restaurant for a meal to celebrate Su Jianshan finding a job and settling down in Ningcheng. The two grown men packed up and set off early in the morning, but they never thought that Su Niannian would stand them up.

The other party just disappeared without a trace.

As the host, Gu Zhiye had to take his brother-in-law to the state-owned restaurant. There were more dishes served on weekends. He ordered a pork elbow with soy sauce and two bowls of white rice. Su Jianshan's saliva almost dripped out. He touched his head and smiled, "Zhiye, have I caused you any trouble? The neighbors often come to ask why it is me who is accompanying the army and not my sister. It's strange..."

"You two are both in the military area, it's a good match." Gu Zhiye was silent for a second, and explained: "It was Zhang Jie's idea to ask you to help in the cafeteria. It has nothing to do with me."

"He's doing this for your sake. I understand. He's your good brother..."

Su Jianshan immediately tore off the fattest meat from his elbow and put it into Gu Zhiye's bowl, staring at him ingratiatingly. Gu Zhiye smiled and immediately stood up to serve the rice soup. Just as Su Jianshan was about to eat heartily, someone suddenly bumped into his shoulder heavily, accompanied by the girl's collapsed roar: "Brother! I miss you so much——!"

Su Jianshan was so scared that his chopsticks dropped.

He turned his head and just saw Chen Niannian's rough face.

"Niannian, why are you here?!"

"It's over! The Chen family is over! I thought I would live a comfortable life when I returned, but who knew that a group of people suddenly came and smashed the house and took everything. My father and mother were arrested and said they were sent to some place. My mother took great pains to get me out and let me go find my fiancé in the Jin family. If I had known that I would be tormented like this, I should not have returned..."

Familiar footsteps sounded behind him. Su Jianshan, for some reason, reached out and covered Chen Niannian's chattering mouth.
