Gu Ye was treated to meals by his old comrades every day, and Jiang Yue was not idle either. Sister Zhao invited her to dinner every day, so Aunt Yang and Sister Shi could not get a seat.
In addition to distributing year-end bonuses, Jiang Yue also had another purpose in coming back this time, which was to hold a year-end summary meeting for the company.
Two of the backbone members when the company was founded went to Beijing, and one stayed in Qingshan County. Although the company does not have many people, it has everything it needs. It is precisely because of the company that Jiang Yue can let go and does not have to do everything himself. He can just give orders for anything.
Every month, the company manager and finance department would go to Beijing to meet with members of the head office there to report on performance.
Three days passed in the blink of an eye, and the day of departure was approaching.
That morning, Mrs. Zhao, Captain Zhao and his wife, and Commander Zheng all came to see Gu Ye and Jiang Yue off.
"Gu Ye, next time we meet, I'll call you Teacher Gu!" Teacher Zheng teased Gu Ye.
"Commander, you are joking. I don't have enough qualifications. It's too early for you to become commander!" Gu Ye smiled generously.
Captain Zhao curled his lips, "Gu Ye, don't be so modest! If your qualifications are not enough, then who has them?"
Everyone knew that Gu Ye was under the age limit, he was too young. Others were promoted to division commander when they were almost fifty years old, which was considered young. He was only twenty-eight after the Chinese New Year, and a twenty-eight-year-old regimental commander was already rare, let alone a division-level cadre.
Gu Yuanzhang and Gu Huaijing had a long-term vision and decided to let him hone his skills for a few more years for the sake of Gu Ye's future.
"Gu Ye, what I told you--" Commander Zheng patted Gu Ye's shoulder.
"I remember! Don't worry, Commander!" Gu Ye agreed.
Jiang Yue heard from Gu Ye last night that Commander Zheng wanted to find him because he wanted to transfer his son to Gu Ye's regiment.
Mrs. Zhao held Jiang Yue's hand and was reluctant to let her go.
After seeing off a few people, Wu Xianfeng's family and Shi's family also arrived. Ning Ning saw the packed luggage in the main room and hugged Jiang Yue's legs, "Mom, I can't bear to leave you!"
Jiang Yue hugged Ningning and her eyes were also red.
The flight was at around 11:00 am, so they had to rush to the provincial capital in advance, and Zhang Jianguo drove them there.
"Don't worry, we will clean this place so you can always have a clean home when you come back!" said Wu's sister-in-law as she helped Jiang Yue carry her luggage to the car.
"Thanks!"
As the feeling of parting came up, everyone's eyes became hot.
Only little Gu Chu got on the car, kicking his little hands and feet around with joy.
The big jeep had just driven out of the old street to pick up Sister Sun. Zhang Jianguo was about to start the car when Jiang Yue saw a familiar figure. "Wait!"
"Gu Ye, is that Aunt He?"
Jiang Yue pointed at a middle-aged woman carrying a vegetable basket on the roadside and asked Gu Ye.
Gu Ye glanced over and said, "It should be!"
Jiang Yue opened the car door and said, "I'm going to talk to Aunt He!"
"Aunt He!"
Jiang Yue got out of the car, walked a few steps closer and called out.
The middle-aged woman in front turned around when she heard the voice and saw that it was a beautiful girl calling her. She was stunned at first, then she looked over. Aunt He was overjoyed, "Oh, who is calling me? It turned out to be Jiang Yue! When did you come back? Let's go to her house and have a seat!"
Jiang Yue smiled and said, "I've been back for two days! I have to leave today, maybe next time!"
Aunt He looked Jiang Yue up and down with a smile, "The last time I saw you was when you gave birth to your baby. It's been more than half a year now. You don't look like a mother who has given birth to three children. You're clearly still a little girl!"
Jiang Yue felt embarrassed by the compliments. After chatting with Aunt He for a few words, she asked about He Jingxuan, "Aunt, how is He Jingxuan now? Is he okay?"
Since He Jingxuan went to the south, Jiang Yue has lost contact with him. Before she went to the capital, she often met Director Shen and Aunt He in Qingshan County, and occasionally they would reveal news about He Jingxuan.
Jiang Yue knew that He Jingxuan started a business after going to the south. It was said that he was in the furniture business at first, and later he opened a foreign trade company.
Since Jiang Yue went to the capital, she has not heard any news about He Jingxuan. Now that she has met Aunt He today, she naturally wants to ask about him.
However, when Aunt He heard Jiang Yue asking about He Jingxuan, her expression became strange.
"Aunt, what's wrong? Did something happen?" Jiang Yue's heart tightened.
In fact, Jiang Yue has always felt uneasy during this period of time. A few months ago, Pei Xueyun went to find Gu Ye, which caused Gu Ye to behave abnormally. Although Gu Ye has not told Jiang Yue what Pei Xueyun said to him at the time, and Gu Ye later behaved normally, Jiang Yue still keenly noticed the changes in Gu Ye in some aspects.
Jiang Yue has been looking for Pei Xueyun, but after leaving Gu Ye’s troops, Pei Xueyun has never appeared again.
Jiang Yue sent someone to Kang County to inquire, and the news they got was that Pei Xueyun was not in Kang County.
People in the Pei family said that Pei Xueyun was crazy. She destroyed the tea egg workshop that was doing well in Kang County. Not only did she destroy the workshop, she also beat up everyone in the Pei family before leaving. So when everyone was asleep at night, she went in with a stick and beat everyone she saw.
Pei's mother was the first to be beaten until her head was bleeding, and all the money she had saved for her son's marriage was snatched away by Pei Xueyun.
Jiang Yue was very worried about Pei Xueyun and went to find He Jingxuan.
"I'm not very clear about the details, but I heard from my sister-in-law that Xiaoxuan called me a while ago and said that he had encountered some trouble and might have to hide for a while. He won't be back for the New Year this year, and asked his family not to look for him!" Aunt He said worriedly.
"In trouble?" Jiang Yue frowned. "How long ago?"
He Jingxuan is alone in the south. He is so smart, what kind of trouble will he encounter?
"The call was made last month. I don't know exactly when the trouble occurred!" Aunt He replied.
