Chapter 1161: You're all crazy!!! (Two chapters)
Gu Yin smiled helplessly upon hearing this, "We haven't confirmed the date yet. I was planning to call you after we confirmed it, but how could I not call you?!"
"If I'm unsure about the dates, I'll stay a few more days!"
After Wu Ye finished speaking, he waved his hand and said, "Come on, bring all the safes up here."
"Keep your mine. If you need money, just tell me. If you want jadeite, just tell me! I have plenty! All kinds of jadeite! Why would you need to open your own mine? It would be so embarrassing! My godson and godson are so poor that they have to open a mine. If word gets out, I'll lose face! Come, come, these boxes contain both designed pieces and raw stones! See if you like them!"
If each person carries two boxes, then six people would have twelve boxes!
When it was opened, everyone present was completely shocked.
Those green ones, those purple ones, those glass-like things—anyone who owns one of them would be rich.
There are twelve boxes displayed here!
Every box is full!
"You didn't bring out all your most treasured possessions, did you? These are priceless items!"
Gu Yin picked up a piece of colorless glass, about the size of a goose egg, and could see the lines on her palm through it!
"I suppose so. I was just worried that you might have a big shortage and not enough for other things! But I received news on the way here that your company is fine. Since I brought all this stuff, you can divide it among yourselves. It would be a loss if it got worn out while you were taking it back!"
It's been protected so well, how could it possibly be worn out!
Gu Le pondered for a moment and said, "Grandpa, how about this? I'll take these things, and we'll give you the two mines over there in return. You'll have to take a loss, okay?"
"It's yours now, what's the point of exchanging it? Do you think I'm someone who lacks a little jade? Just keep it!"
Gu Le was also conflicted; whether or not to give them these things was his decision!
Gu Le gave two boxes to Xiao Huang, and the remaining ten boxes were all given to Gu Yin.
"I don't need that many, one box is enough!"
Gu Yin quickly refused, saying she already had all those things, and so much gold; she really didn't need any more!
"Take it if you want! If you don't, you can have both boxes!"
After Gu Le finished speaking, Xiao Huang immediately nodded in agreement: "That's right, I don't need any either, so please keep them all for my elder sister."
As Wu Ye watched the siblings pushing and shoving each other, he gradually became suspicious.
Something's not right, something's definitely not right!
In the past, the siblings always split the things they were given equally!
Why is everything being given to Gu Yin all of a sudden?!
Something's really wrong!
Wu Ye moved slightly closer to Zhou Wansheng and tugged at him.
Surprisingly, the other party did not respond.
"What are you doing?" He tugged at her again.
Zhou Wansheng finally came to his senses.
After rubbing his temples, Zhou Wansheng exhaled and looked at Wu Ye: "What's wrong?"
"Come out here for a moment, I have something to ask you."
After saying that, he stood up, smiled at Gu Le and Gu Yin, and said, "You two continue discussing, I'm going out for a smoke! I'm craving a cigarette!"
After saying that, he walked out.
Just as it was lit, Zhou Wansheng came out.
What do you want to ask?
Wu Ye handed him the cigarette and lit one for himself.
They quietly observed each other.
Zhou Wansheng: "...Why are you looking at me like that? What's wrong? You're getting old and you've discovered my charm and fallen for me?"
Wu Ye: "...Are you even speaking human language?! Look at your dark circles! They're as blue as if you've been indulging in too much sex! Tell me, what exactly happened? What's going on? You were forced to marry the daughter of a royal family? That shouldn't be possible, you're the shipping magnate of Asia! Our child is good enough for her! Don't worry! If you really don't like it, I'll talk to her!"
"It's not about that. The two kids are fine. Don't make things up!"
"Then tell me what happened! Look at your state of mind, and look at Ah Le and Ah Yin's unusual behavior. Something big must have happened! Although we're not from the same country, we're family! If Ah Yin hadn't saved me back then, I wouldn't be where I am now! We're all family, so just tell me what's wrong!"
Zhou Wansheng sighed and took a deep breath.
Then he said heavily, "It's Ayin. Ayin is going on a mission, and there's a 90% chance she won't come back."
He and his wife haven't been able to sleep for the past few days!
"Tell me, when she was a child, she worked so hard all by herself to find out the truth, and that's how I found out who my real child is. This reunion is only for a few years, and then we'll be separated again, most likely permanently. What should I do?"
Wu Ye was stunned.
"What, what's going on? You're going to war? I haven't heard! The international situation is indeed quite tense, but no one dares to touch your country yet. At most, they just bark a few times online. They're quite good at making noise, but if it really comes to war, see who dares to do it?"
"There's no large-scale war to fight. Even if Ayin goes on a mission, given her abilities, there's no need to worry so much. You guys are being too tense. I thought she went to fight in outer space!"
Zhou Wansheng glanced at him, sighed, and remained silent.
Wu Ye: "......???!!! Don't tell me! She's really going to outer space! Is she crazy or is your country crazy?! Holy crap! We haven't even fully explored outer space yet, and she wants to go fight aliens whose existence hasn't even been confirmed?"
"It's not about fighting! It's about sending an advance team! We need to send the first group of people. Since it's the first group, they have to be outstanding. Ayin, Ayan, Lanyan, and Niannian, all of them will go."
!!
"No! Are you all out of your minds? With A-Yin's abilities, if something happens to her, it will be a tragedy for your country and for humanity! Can't you tell the difference between what's important and what's not?"
Zhou Wansheng was also very frustrated and grabbed his hair hard!
"Do you think I wanted this?! Ayin is an adult! She made her own decision! Nobody can persuade her otherwise! Look at her, she's already working for the country before she even graduated. She was born to belong to the country! Nobody can stop her, and we have no reason to stop her! Whose child isn't a child? Everyone is important, but if you're more capable than others, then you should step up even more, right? I understand, I accept it. Just like Ayin said, let's just consider it as her traveling in Taiyuan, it's just a bit of a long journey. Okay, don't be too surprised. Don't reveal what I told you today."
After Zhou Wansheng finished speaking, he straightened his clothes, perked up, and returned to the living room.
Wu Ye: "?? No, why does it have to be so grand? Why does faith have to be so powerful? Are other people's children more important than your own? Are others more important than yourself?"
I don't understand!
But when I think about this country, well, they're all crazy!
Gu Yin could sense the change in her grandfather's emotions; not only the old man, but everyone else in the family felt the same way.
Gu Yin also discovered that they were secretly watching a lot of space movies while she was sleeping.
I watched The Wandering Earth repeatedly.
After reading it, I seem to understand Gu Yin's actions.
Then everyone calmed down.
But Gu Yin knew that while they understood, they were still in a state of half-acceptance and half-non-acceptance.
Fortunately, Gu Le's wedding date has been set.
Everyone is busy again.
"Ayin, your teacher is here!"
The old lady called out from the yard, and Gu Yin came out of her room.
Everyone told her to rest and not to do anything, so she had no choice but to go back to her room.
"Teacher, why are you back?"
Cheng Dong smiled and said, "I have to come back for Ah Le's wedding."
After saying that, seeing everyone busy in the living room, Cheng Dong nodded towards the backyard: "Those two chickens will be back soon, go to the back and tidy up their coop."
Is he about to say something again?
Sure enough, once they reached a secluded spot, Cheng Dong asked.
"I heard from Elder Jin that you and Ayan are going to lead a team as the first batch of warriors to enter space?"
Gu Yin nodded: "Yes."
"Are you sure? Have you thought it through?"
"Yes, I'm sure."
"Okay, that's settled."
Gu Yin asked in surprise, "Teacher, aren't you going to try to persuade me?"
Cheng Dong chuckled: "I almost died for my job back then, what right do I have to advise you? Besides, those of us who do this job have long since disregarded life and death. For us, living an ordinary life is not as good as going to our death heroically. It's just a metaphor, nothing serious. Maybe you will live longer than us. There are too many uncertainties in space. Who can say for sure whether we live or die? The end of science is metaphysics."
"Teacher, could you help me comfort my family? I think your job as political commissar is great!"
As soon as Gu Yin finished speaking, she received a glare from Cheng Dong.
"Don't try to persuade me. Just figure it out yourself. You're so outstanding, your family won't be any less so. They're just a little resistant at first, but they'll be fine in a couple of days. Don't worry."
I hope so.
When the two chickens came back in the afternoon, they immediately diverted the family's attention.
"Good heavens! Is this really my chicken? How did it turn out like this? It's neither a peacock nor a phoenix; it has this weird, tacky feel to it!"
The old woman circled the two chickens, still unable to believe that the two chickens, which were twice as tall and twice as big as before, were hers.
"Coo coo!"
Seeing that the old lady didn't believe him, the clucking chicken immediately lowered its head and started to act coquettishly towards her chest.
The clucking chicken squatted down in front of Gu Yin, flapped its wings, and raised its head.
"Hehe!!" Get on! I'll show you around! Let me demonstrate my skills!
Gu Yin silently turned its head to the side.
"I won't sit here, let someone else sit."
"Anyone interested? The clucking chicken can carry you around in a circle."
"I'll do it!!"
Gu Shu immediately ran over!
Gu Le: "...Cuckoo Chicken, can you take me for a spin?"
They beat us to it; we could only find the hen.
"Don't you know your own weight? What if you crush my chicken? Go away, go sit on the clucking chicken, it has thick skin and tough flesh!"
The old lady directly refused on behalf of the chicken.
"Hmph, chickens that know how to fawn always have the best lives!"
Gu Yin: "......"
What on earth is this?!
Exclamations of surprise occasionally echoed from the courtyard, breaking the slightly somber atmosphere of the past few days.
Gu Yin gave the courtyard house near Qingda University directly to Gu Le.
Xiaohuang had no objection to where they would stay, so after the place was renovated, it was temporarily used as their marital home.
"The wedding banquet is tomorrow. Here are the wedding dresses. Try them on one last time. If there are no problems, take them back to your rooms and head to the main hall tomorrow morning."
Wang Yanzhi brought over the dresses and distributed them to everyone to try on.
It's hot now, and Gu Le's wedding is in the traditional Chinese style.
So everyone was wearing cheongsams and traditional Chinese clothing.
Gu Yin's dress was a sleeveless, backless, halter-neck, high-necked cheongsam design.
The cheongsam was covered with rhinestones.
Slim fit, fashionable, dignified and noble.
"Pairing it with pearls is a bit stingy. Wear that colorless glass-type bracelet and earrings instead. Less is more. Just wear these two items."
Wang Yanzhi looked at Gu Yin for a while and then helped her with her accessories.
Chu Yan chose a black formal suit with a brooch on the diagonal lapel. The brooch was a diamond woodpecker holding a bunch of transparent grapes, just like Gu Yin's outfit, making them look like a pair.
After everyone had made their decisions, they went back to rest.
The next morning, Gu Le drove his family to the Red House to pick up his bride and head to the National Auditorium.
The last time I came to this hall was for a meeting; I never expected to come again to attend Ah Le's wedding.
People outside the auditorium can actually rent it out to hold banquets. The government hasn't publicized it, but everyone in Beijing knows about it.
A long red carpet was laid out at the entrance.
The wedding car drove directly to the entrance of the hall.
The heavy, dignified gate was opened from the inside.
Gu Le led Xiao Huang inside.
Gu Yin and the others followed behind.
"Why am I feeling a little nervous? It feels like I'm going to a national conference! The atmosphere is so serious!"
Gu Shu followed Gu Yin, secretly making sarcastic remarks.
Gu Yin chuckled: "Look at your wife, then look at your daughter, and finally look at yourself. Is that appropriate?"
Gu Shu said helplessly, "My wife grew up here, and my daughter is studying in this circle now. They're used to it. You have to understand your brother!"
Despite saying that, Gu Shu still sat up straight and walked in with her head held high.
The hall was filled with Chinese-style chairs on both sides, and a huge red floral ball hung overhead. Red silk covered the entire venue.
The theme is peonies and bamboo, which has a very auspicious meaning!
"The officiant was actually our old commander! My goodness, that's a bit scary!"
Upon seeing the people on the stage, Gu Shu immediately sat up straight, not daring to move an inch.
Gu Yin looked around and realized that most of the guests were people she had seen on the news.
The remaining people are relatives and friends.
I originally thought the wedding would be complicated and lengthy, but the old chief didn't waste any time with his words.
After completing the formalities, the next step was to offer blessings to the newlyweds, then personally hand Xiaohuang over to Gu Le, and finally give him a "change of address" fee.
He left in a hurry without even eating.
Those important leaders also left one after another.
That's normal. People who don't get much rest in a day are already very lucky to be able to spare an hour!
“The old leaders are gone, the atmosphere is different now, it’s much more relaxed. Ah Yin, you sit down, I’ll go talk to them.”
Gu Yin nodded when she saw that he was pointing to Xiao Sheng and Long Yu. "Okay."
As soon as Gu Shu left, the old leader's secretary came over.
"Comrade Zhou, the old leader has something to say to you."
Gu Yin took the shawl and put it on. After saying something to Chu Yan, she followed him upstairs to the old chief's office.
The office door was open, and people were talking inside.
Upon seeing Gu Yin arrive, the group nodded and got up to leave.
"Come in."
Upon hearing this, Gu Yin went inside.
"I heard things haven't been peaceful at home these past few days."
Gu Yin sighed helplessly, "How did these little things get to the ears of our old leader? It's really embarrassing."
The old leader didn't say anything, but his pen kept moving.
Ten minutes later, the other person finally put down the pen.
"What are your thoughts on the question of 'why it's you and not someone else, and why it's you and not someone else'?"
"What's there to think about? Because I'm amazing. Nobody can do it except me."
Gu Yin's expression remained unchanged, exuding arrogance.
The old leader glanced at her quietly and nodded: "Okay, go back."
