In the evening, after Jiang Yue finished feeding, Sister Sun carried the baby downstairs. Gu Ye pushed the door open and sat next to Jiang Yue.
"Jiang Yue, I have something to tell you!"
"Well, you say!"
Jiang Yue was tidying up her clothes and didn't even raise her head when she heard this. She thought Gu Ye was just talking to her about something ordinary.
However, Jiang Yue waited and did not hear Gu Ye speak, so she looked up and saw a serious expression on Gu Yejun's face.
"What's wrong?" Jiang Yue realized that what Gu Ye wanted to say must be something very important.
Gu Ye paused, then spoke slowly: "Just as I mentioned to you before, I might join the Independent Regiment!"
Jiang Yue raised her eyebrows and glared at Gu Ye, "Is that it? You scared me. Why are you being so serious?"
Gu Ye was promoted to the rank of regiment commander when he was less than 30 years old. He also made two consecutive achievements last year. He should have been promoted to the rank of division commander, but there were very few regiment commanders of Gu Ye's age, let alone division-level cadres.
Gu Yuanzhang and Gu Huaijing both think that Gu Ye should gain more experience for a few more years and not rush for promotion.
The military district had long planned to form an independent regiment, and Gu Ye happened to be transferred back, so Gu Huaijing hoped that Gu Ye could take over the independent regiment.
"If I go there, I won't be able to accompany you and the baby!" Gu Ye said in a deep voice.
At noon in the courtyard, Jiang Yue said that they would move in together after school started, so he wanted to tell her about it, but he saw that Jiang Yue was very happy at the time and didn't want to spoil her interest, so he didn't mention it in the end.
Jiang Yue asked: "Isn't the Independent Group in the capital? Is it very far away?"
Gu Ye replied: "It's not too far, about 20 to 30 kilometers from the capital."
Jiang Yue frowned and thought for a moment, "Are you worried that no one will take care of me and the baby?"
Gu Ye reached out and stroked Jiang Yue's cheek. Seeing her bright eyes looking at him, he sighed slightly, "I don't want to be separated from you!"
Jiang Yue felt warm in her heart when she heard this. She hooked her arms around Gu Ye's neck and leaned into his arms. She smiled and said, "Look at you. It's only a few dozen kilometers, not hundreds of kilometers. Can't you come back at the weekend?"
Gu Ye said seriously: "I'm not at home usually, and it will be very hard for you to take care of the three of them!"
Jiang Yue actually didn't want to be separated from Gu Ye. Since she came to this world, they had always been together except when Gu Ye was on a mission. She had become accustomed to Gu Ye's company.
Jiang Yue began to feel uncomfortable at the thought that she would not be able to see Gu Ye every day soon.
However, Jiang Yue understood that Gu Ye was an eagle, destined to spread his wings and soar. She couldn't ask him to fold his wings and live in seclusion in a corner just because of a little sentimental sentiment.
Although she felt upset, Jiang Yue still said with a clear conscience: "Don't I have Sister Sun and Aunt Liu to help me? And my parents are here, don't worry!"
Gu Ye hugged Jiang Yue tightly, his lowered eyes filled with deep love.
In fact, he guessed that Jiang Yue would support him, but he was also thinking that if Jiang Yue didn't want to separate from him, then he would not go to the Independent Regiment. This way he could see her and the baby every day, just like when they were still in Qingshan County, which would be nice.
He is still young, and his personal development can wait for a few more years, until the baby grows up a little, and Jiang Yue graduates. It will not be too late then.
Gu Ye didn't say anything, Jiang Yue comforted him instead: "I know you are worried about me, but think about it, I will move to the courtyard after school starts, and the baby will definitely be with me. Even if you stay in Beijing, you can't leave the military area to go home every day, and you can only leave the team on weekends, right?"
Jiang Yue was still breastfeeding, so she had to rush home after class to breastfeed for three hours. However, Peking University was not close to the military compound, and even if there was a car to pick her up, it would take one or two hours to go back and forth.
Not to mention that Jiang Yue would be very rushed and tired from traveling back and forth, the three little ones probably couldn't wait for her to come back every day.
Before coming to the capital, she and Gu Ye had discussed that she would move to the courtyard house after school started so that it would be convenient for her to go to classes and go home to breastfeed.
Gu Ye's eyes were fixed on Jiang Yue's face. Jiang Yue smiled at him and said, "So you see, whether you stay in Beijing or go there, the result is actually the same. We can only see each other on weekends!"
Seeing Gu Ye's serious expression, Jiang Yue hooked her arm around his neck and kissed him, then said with a smile, "Okay! I promise, I'll bring the baby to see you during the holidays!"
"Hmm!" Gu Ye and Jiang Yue put their foreheads together and responded softly.
…
School is about to start in a week, and Jiang Yue has been running to the courtyard these days.
The luggage, clothes and other things that were checked in from Qingshan County were all at the courtyard, and she had to go there to sort them out.
Jiang Yue will take the three little ones with her so that they can adapt to the environment in advance.
Sister Sun and Aunt Liu helped Jiang Yue tidy up the room, and within a few days, the courtyard was filled with a breath of life.
After Gu Ye reported to the military region, he immediately became busy. He was nowhere to be seen during the day and came back late at night. Several times, Jiang Yue fell asleep before he got home.
The Gu family members are all very busy. Gu Huaijing has been attending a meeting in the military district recently, Gu Li has gone to lead troops to participate in an exercise, and Rong Yin also has work to deal with at the Chamber of Commerce, so no one is at home during the day.
These past few days, Jiang Yue took the triplets out early in the morning and stayed in the courtyard for the entire day.
The night before school started, Jiang Yue came back from the courtyard. As soon as she entered the door, she saw Gu Ye coming down from the second floor.
"Gu Ye, you're back!" Jiang Yue rushed over happily, "Why are you back so early today?"
When Gu Ye saw Jiang Yue, he also smiled and hugged her, "Have you had dinner?"
"Yeah, I've eaten! How about you?" Jiang Yue hugged Gu Ye's thin waist and looked up at him. She hadn't seen him for several days and really missed him!
"We ate in the cafeteria!" Gu Ye held Jiang Yue's hand and looked up at Sister Sun and Aunt Liu who came in behind them. Both of them were holding small baskets with the triplets lying obediently inside.
"Baby, look who's back, it's daddy!" Sister Sun and Aunt Liu lifted the gauze covering the basket and took the triplets out.
Gu Ye goes out early and comes back late every day, and he hasn't seen the three little ones for several days. At this moment, seeing his son and daughter smiling at him with their big eyes, his heart melted.
They hugged and kissed each one of them. Seeing that Jiang Yue didn't say anything, Gu Ye turned his head to look at her, but saw that Jiang Yue was staring at the backpack placed beside the sofa in a daze.
"Jiang Yue!" Gu Ye put his daughter back into the cradle, walked to Jiang Yue and called her, but Jiang Yue did not respond.
"Jiang Yue?" Gu Ye called again.
This time Jiang Yue heard it and suddenly looked up at Gu Ye.
"I received an order to leave tonight!" Gu Ye's lips moved before he spoke, "Sorry! I can't accompany you to report tomorrow!"
Hearing this, Jiang Yue's heart suddenly trembled, her eyes immediately turned red, and the corners of her mouth flattened, but then she held back her tears and smiled, "It's okay, I can go by myself!"
Gu Ye could see that Jiang Yue was feeling aggrieved, but he was a soldier and a soldier's duty was to obey orders. Even though he had asked his superiors to let him leave a day later, and his superiors had agreed, who would have thought that the military district would give a direct order tonight to set off immediately.
Gu Ye didn't want to say these words to Jiang Yue, fearing that she would be sad. Time was running out, so he had to hurry up and say a few more words to her.
"Wait until I come back!" A car horn sounded outside the door. Gu Ye put his big hand on Jiang Yue's face. A strong love and reluctance flashed in the beautiful Ruifeng eyes.
