Chapter 462: Chasing your wife to the crematorium!

Huo Jianguo found an opportunity to have a serious talk with Du Lei about his skin disease.

Du Lei felt mixed emotions after learning that his skin disease was caused by the cold air and that the disease could not be cured if he continued to serve in the frontier.

He had been treating skin diseases for so many years, but it turned out that it was just due to his inability to adapt to the air environment in the frontier?

"I have persisted for so many years, am I going to retire for this reason?" Du Lei frowned and said with a troubled look on his face.

"Du Lei, I think your skin problem is serious and you are really not suitable to continue working in the border area.

My suggestion is that you apply for discharge from the military and come to work in my company, at least you can have a stable life.

No matter where we are, we can all make a difference to society."

Du Lei was already wavering in his heart, but after hearing Huo Jianguo's suggestion, he quickly agreed to it.

Seeing Du Lei looking sad, Huo Jianguo patted Du Lei on the shoulder to comfort him.

After hearing that Du Lei was going to retire, Shao Gang couldn't hold back. He originally wanted to follow Huo Jianguo, but thinking about how Du Lei was still staying on the frontier despite the hardship, he didn't have the nerve to ask Huo Jianguo for a job.

Now that Du Lei was about to retire, he quickly found Huo Jianguo and said anxiously:

"Captain, you see Du Lei is leaving soon, I also want to follow you and continue to be your subordinate!"

Huo Jianguo disagreed at first, as he set up this company to recruit veterans.

What's the matter with active military personnel clamoring to be discharged in order to follow him?

Later, it was Chen Yilong who lobbied for Shao Gang, and Huo Jianguo finally kept Shao Gang.

As a result, when Li Yuan saw that the two men were about to retire, he began to think: "My mother is old, I should let her leave the frontier and enjoy a few years of happiness."

Just like that, a small group of people who used to follow Huo Jianguo in the army decided to follow their leader back to the border to complete the discharge procedures.

When Chen Yilon came here, he brought a group of people with him, but when he leaves, he will probably be alone.

Looking at these soldiers who decided to retire, Chen Yilong felt a lot of emotions in his heart, but he was also very relieved:

“It’s good to have a nice place to go!”

Chen Yillong knew how hard life was on the border, so he had no reason to prevent these soldiers, who had suffered for decades on the border, from finding a chance to live a better life.

After all, we are all born by our fathers and raised by our parents, and each of us can only live for a few short decades.

…………

The Chinese New Year finally arrived. Su Mei's parents Su Yongcang and Bai Xiaofang, as well as her grandfather Su Xuanju, came to Yanjing and celebrated the New Year with Su Mei.

They sold the medicinal herbs they had grown that year to the soldiers in the army and made a lot of money.

Looking at the money he received, Su Yongcang smiled until his eyes narrowed into slits. He said excitedly:

"My goodness, this is several times more profitable than growing crops!"

"That's right, our work this year has not been in vain!" Bai Xiaofang also laughed happily.

Grandpa Su Xuanhu stroked his beard, feeling full of achievement:

"I never thought that my skills in making medicinal herbs could be put to good use. I can finally die with peace of mind!"

"Pooh, pooh, pooh. Why are you talking about life and death on New Year's Day?" Su Mei looked at her parents and grandfather happy, and she was happy too.

On New Year's Day, Su Mei brought her whole family to the empty courtyard in Wangfujing, where they decorated the place with lights and colorful lanterns, creating a lively atmosphere.

Big red lanterns are hung high, Spring Festival couplets are posted neatly, colorful window decorations are blooming on the windows, and the yard is filled with the strong flavor of the New Year.

In the kitchen, there was steam and fragrance.

Su Mei and her mother Bai Xiaofang were busy having fun, cooking delicious dishes one after another.

The table was filled with a sumptuous New Year's Eve dinner, including shiny braised fish, which symbolizes abundance every year; fragrant pork elbows in sauce, which were fatty but not greasy; and golden and crispy fried meatballs, which were crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.

The family sat together, their faces filled with happy smiles.

Grandpa Su Xuanhu sat in the first seat, grinning from ear to ear and praising the deliciousness of the food.

He said that times were good and he was very happy to be able to take advantage of Su Mei's help and visit Yanjing.

Su Mei took the opportunity to persuade her grandfather to stay in Yanjing, but Su Xuanhu did not agree. He said that when people get old, they should return to their roots.

Yang Suhua also came to Su Mei's home to celebrate the New Year together, because her master Li Shufen and Zeng Shengqiang had gone to celebrate the New Year, and she was embarrassed to disturb their first New Year.

Su Shengxue took special care of Yang Suhua, busying himself with preparations. Sometimes he would add more rice to Yang Suhua's meal, and sometimes he would ask if she had enough to eat.

Yang Suhua felt a little embarrassed and kept saying, "Brother Shengxue, I can come by myself."

Seeing Fifth Brother being so attentive to Yang Suhua, Su Shengxue began to wonder. She secretly pulled Su Shengxue over and asked him:

"Fifth brother, do you have any feelings for Sister Suhua?"

"You girl, you think too much! I just treat Yang Suhua like you, and take care of her as a younger sister. I'm worried that she will be wronged during the New Year at our house. What else can I care about?" Su Shengxue rolled his eyes at Su Mei in annoyance, and in the blink of an eye he went up to Su Mei with a smile.

Su Mei looked at Su Shengxue's back and shook her head in disdain. She curled her lips to show her disbelief:

"Humph, I've never seen you being so attentive to your own sister, me."

The food was served, and everyone enjoyed the delicious New Year's Eve dinner while sharing the interesting things that happened in the past year. Laughter and joy echoed throughout the yard.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Su Mei went to pay New Year's greetings to her master Qin Zhengting.

As soon as she entered the door, she found Chu Tian was also in her master's house.

Su Mei asked curiously, "Senior, why are you here too? Are you here to wish everyone a happy new year as well?"

"No." Chu Tian replied in a low voice, somewhat embarrassed.

After asking carefully, Su Mei found out that it was her senior brother Qin Fang who was having an affair with Chu Tian.

So Chu Tian spent the New Year at Qin's house.

After learning about this, Su Mei went to the study to help Qin Fang look at a new research topic and secretly said to Qin Fang:

"Brother, you finally have taste for once. Senior Sister Chu Tian is very good, you must cherish her!"

"It's great that her parents like her and think she's a good girl, and you like her, and everyone likes her.

But my heart is dead, and I will never fall in love with anyone again. However, for the sake of filial piety, I am willing to marry her and live a life of pretending to be in love with her." Qin Fang looked lazy, as if it didn't matter who he was with.

Su Mei didn't expect Qin Fang to have such thoughts. When she heard Qin Fang say this, she immediately became furious:

"Brother, you are such a jerk! A girl has no obligation to pay for your filial piety. Don't let your so-called filial piety ruin my life!"

Qin Fang didn't care:

"Don't worry, I will make her live a happy life. At least I am serious about acting my love for her and I can act it out for the rest of my life. As long as she is happy, my parents will be happy too, and the family is harmonious, it's fine if I sacrifice my love a little bit."

What kind of perverse logic is this? Does the girl need you to sacrifice her?

Su Mei felt that this was just her senior brother. If it was her real brother Su who was going to college, she would definitely give him two benches.

What are the scumbag quotes?

Just when Su Mei was thinking about how to scold Qin Fang without using any curse words, she suddenly heard the sound of a glass falling to the ground and breaking outside the door.

She and Qin Fang looked at each other and hurried out of the study, only to see Chu Tian, ​​who had brought the tea, standing outside the study with empty hands and tears streaming down her face.

Chu Tian looked at Qin Fang sadly, and she said with a trembling voice:

"I don't need others to pretend to love me, I can also find someone who truly loves me!

Qin Fang, you really disgust me."

After saying that, Chu Tian covered her mouth and ran out crying.

Huo Jianguo, who was chatting with Qin Zhengting in the living room, also came out after hearing the noise, looking confused: "What happened? Why did Chu Tian run away?"

Qin Fang didn't say anything. He suddenly felt panicky and turned around to chase after him.

Su Mei was very upset and told Huo Jianguo and Qin Zhengting the topic she had just discussed with Qin Fang in a self-reproachful manner.

She felt that she shouldn't have said those things, causing Chu Tian to be so sad.

Qin Zhengting comforted Su Mei: "Those words must be made clear, otherwise it will really harm the girl.

"What kind of eyes does Qin Fang have? Chu Tian is much better than Mu Lan!" Huo Jianguo shook his head, expressing his confusion.

"Forget about him. This idiot won't be able to eat four dishes in his life." Qin Zhengting was so disappointed that he turned around and went into the house helplessly.

Su Mei and Huo Jianguo could only follow in silently.

After a while, Qin Fang came back in a daze, and Chu Tian was not with him.

While eating, everyone was talking and laughing, except Qin Fang, who was drinking alone without saying a word.

The master's wife looked at her son's distraught state and sighed distressedly:

"Hey, look at you. You look just like you did when you broke up with Mu Lan. It seems like you still have feelings for Chu Tian."

While complaining, she patted Qin Fang's shoulder gently:

"You deserve it. When Chu Tian was here, you didn't know how to cherish her. Now that she's gone, who are you crying for?"

Qin Fang remained silent and just drank one glass of wine after another.

Finally, he got drunk and began to mutter to himself:

"In the past, no matter what mistakes I made, I always thought that as long as I coaxed Chu Tian a little, we would be fine again. But this time is different. I feel that it may be difficult to coax her this time..."

He raised his head and looked at Huo Jianguo pitifully, his eyes full of expectation:

"Brother-in-law Jianguo, please tell me, how should I coax her this time?"

"I don't know what to do!" Huo Jianguo shrugged helplessly and shook his head. He couldn't say such heartless words.

At this time, Su Mei sneered and thought to herself:

"Hmph, you scumbag senior brother, I told you to pretend you don't care and talk nonsense, but now you're chasing your wife to the funeral pyre!"
