The sentry was a little confused as he watched Gu Ye disappear. Gu Tuan looked gloomy, and just a minute ago, Gu Tuan's wife and daughter had just gone there. Why didn't the couple leave together?
Ever since Gu Ye saw Jiang Yue doing business and selling things with others outside the government compound, he has been wondering why Jiang Yue did this. Seeing how familiar she looked with it, it should not be her first time. She must have taken Ningning to the county town to do this when he was not at home last week.
This explains why she was so nervous and even a little panicked when she saw him at home on Saturday.
Gu Ye thought a lot along the way. He planned to ask Jiang Yue in person why she wanted to do this. But when he walked to the door of his house and was about to push it in, he heard the laughter of Jiang Yue and Ning Ning in the yard, and Gu Ye stopped.
Gu Ye changed his mind temporarily and did not go into the house to question Jiang Yue. Instead, he turned around and went back to the regiment headquarters.
"Gu, are you back? I heard from Xiao Xue that you met your sister-in-law in the county town. Are you sending her and Ningning home?" Political Commissar Tang Wenyan knocked on Gu Ye's office door and came in with a teacup in his hand.
Gu Ye took off his hat and put it on the hanger at the door, and said "hmm" casually when he heard it.
He did not come back with Xue Hongliang. Xue Hongliang would definitely report his encounter with Jiang Yue to Political Commissar Tang when he returned to the regiment headquarters. However, Xue Hongliang did not see Jiang Yue selling French fries, so he probably came back and said that he went to send Jiang Yue and Ningning home.
Gu Ye didn't intend to explain, but Political Commissar Tang got curious first, "Gu, I heard from Lao Zhao that your relationship with your sister-in-law has improved a lot recently?"
Hearing this, Gu Ye raised his eyebrows but did not refute.
He often goes home for dinner recently, and the news has spread in the regiment a long time ago. In addition, Captain Zhao from next door tells everyone that he and Jiang Yue are now in love. Now, not only their regiment, but probably the entire 179th Division knows that he and Jiang Yue have reconciled.
Gu Ye didn't know how Captain Zhao could tell that he and Jiang Yue were in love. It might be the misunderstanding caused by the night when he was massaging Jiang Yue's arm and was heard by Captain Zhao and Sister-in-law Zhao.
But it was difficult for Gu Ye to explain this kind of thing, so he could only let the couple misunderstand.
"Gu, listen to your big brother's advice. Since your sister-in-law is willing to live with you now, don't worry too much about the past. Marriage is like this. If you change someone else, it may not be a good thing!" Political Commissar Tang persuaded Gu Ye with the tone of an experienced person.
Gu Ye looked up in confusion, "What do you mean by replacement? Replace who?"
"It's enough if you just know it in your heart!" Political Commissar Tang just smiled and didn't point it out.
The two talked about some work matters, and then Political Commissar Tang returned to his office with the teacup.
Gu Ye sat down, and after writing a document, he was distracted for a while while holding the pen. Then he frowned, opened the rightmost drawer, and pulled out a folded paper from the bottom.
He thought he should understand the meaning of what Political Commissar Tang had just said to him.
Gu Ye unfolded the paper and saw a divorce application at the top. Below was his and Jiang Yue’s basic information and the reason for applying for divorce.
This was the divorce application that Gu Ye wrote the day after he returned from the provincial capital, but he did not submit it because he was delayed by something at the time. Later, it lay in the corner of his drawer.
Gu Ye looked at it for a while, then folded it again, put it in the book, and put it back in the drawer.
In the evening, when Gu Ye returned home, Jiang Yue had already prepared the meal. The aroma wafted over before he even entered the door.
In the yard, under a large osmanthus tree with lush branches and leaves, Ningning and Jiang Yue were sitting on small stools, flipping through a book together.
Jiang Yue lit a mosquito coil at her feet. The yard had obviously been sprinkled with water, and there was a smell of the evaporating summer heat.
The flowers and plants that were planted in the corner yesterday were wilting in the sun, and the buds on several large roses were also drooping.
"Mom, Dad is back!" Ningning was the first to notice Gu Ye and immediately stood up and rushed towards Gu Ye.
Jiang Yue turned her head and saw Gu Ye looking at her, so she grinned, "You're back, go wash your hands, it's time to eat!"
After saying that, Jiang Yue got up and went to the kitchen. Gu Ye came back after washing his hands and saw that what was placed on the stone table was not a book, but an exercise book.
Gu Ye thought it was just an ordinary exercise book, which everyone in school had. He had seen Jiang Yue writing and drawing in it before. But Gu Ye still picked it up and opened the first page. To his surprise, there were some little people drawn on it, and there were sentences next to the little people.
"What is this?" Gu Ye flipped through the pages, and every page was filled with little people having conversations like this.
"This is a bullying prevention manual that my mom drew for Ningning." Ningning answered in a baby voice. She pointed to a little girl with two pigtails on the paper and said, "This is Xiaoning."
Gu Ye: "What are you trying to protect against? What kind of bullying?"
Ningning: "Mom said it's to prevent being bullied."
It was the first time that Gu Ye heard the word bullying, but when Ning Ning said it was about preventing being bullied, he understood.
He looked at the little people on the paper again. They were two little boys named Da Gou and Er Gou. They covered Xiao Ning's head with mud, ripped her beautiful braids, snatched the things in her bag, and threatened her not to tell the teacher and parents, otherwise they would beat her to death.
Xiao Ning hid in the corner, trembling with fear. She didn't dare to tell anyone when she got home. Then Big Dog and Second Dog bullied Xiao Ning even more.
Later, Xiao Ning mustered up the courage to tell her parents about being bullied. Her parents took her to find Dagou and Ergou's parents and successfully taught them a lesson. Xiao Ning herself also became strong and tough, and would resist and seek help when faced with bullying.
This part of the story was drawn by Jiang Yue in a comic book style, and Xiao Ning was obviously based on Ning Ning. Even their looks are very similar, so cute.
As Gu Ye watched, he fell into deep thought.
"Dad! Dad!" Ningning was telling Gu Ye the story of Xiao Ning. Seeing that Gu Ye didn't respond, she turned around and asked, "Dad, are you listening?"
"Yeah, I'm listening!" Gu Ye touched Ningning's hair.
Ningning immediately turned the page happily, "Then Ningning will tell Daddy the story of Xiao Ning's adventures."
"Okay, Ningning, let's eat first, and then tell dad a story after dinner, okay?" Jiang Yue came out with a plate of food. Hearing Ningning's words, she suggested with a smile.
Gu Ye looked up and just happened to see Jiang Yue's smiling face. Her eyebrows were curved, her smile was gentle, and she was so bright and generous that there was no trace of her former self.
The words that were about to come out of Gu Ye's mouth were swallowed back again.
Jiang Yue saw Gu Ye getting up and going to the kitchen, so she raised her hand and pressed it on his shoulder, "No need, just sit down, I'll do it!"
In Jiang Yue's opinion, Gu Ye is a perfect candidate for a husband. He is diligent and clean. He doesn't sit back and act like a big boss as soon as he gets home. He will take the initiative to wash the dishes and do certain housework. He doesn't need Jiang Yue to wash clothes, as he will wash them after taking a shower.
Moreover, Gu Ye did not question her spending money recklessly. Even when the relationship between the original body and him was so bad in the past, he still gave her money and tickets. He never scolded the original body when he saw that a piece of clothing of the original body cost more than ten or twenty yuan.
Well, apart from being unromantic and indifferent to beautiful women throwing themselves at him, Gu Ye actually has quite a lot of good qualities.
