After resting for two days, Gu Hanqiu packed up the things he brought back and sent them to Aunt Ji and his brother Gu Shui's home.
Uncle Ding has been promoted and has moved to the Political and Legal Affairs Bureau next door to them.
Now that the two families live close to each other, they spend more time visiting each other.
Gu Hanqiu walked into the Political and Legal Compound carrying his things. Before he reached Aunt Ji's house, he met an acquaintance on the road.
But this acquaintance is someone she knows, but the other person doesn't know her.
This acquaintance is Li Erlu, who was involved in the incident of two men serving one woman that caused a sensation in Beijing a few years ago.
At this time, he no longer had the vigor and vitality of a few years ago. He looked much older. Although he was younger than Gu Hanqiu, he looked like a 30-year-old man.
His clothes were also different from before. Although his clothes were washed white and had no holes in them, it was still obvious that his living conditions were not very good.
Only after Li Erlu walked away did Gu Hanqiu look back at him.
Even if she is in love, it’s not acceptable!
Tsk tsk!
He used to be such a handsome young man, but after suffering the pain of love, he turned into this haggard old man.
I have to say, fate is so cruel.
When they arrived at Ding's house and saw the door was open, Gu Hanqiu knocked twice on the door frame.
"Sister! Are you home?"
"Here I am! Xiaoqiu, just come in!"
Hearing Gu Hanqiu's voice, Aunt Ji hurried out of the room.
"Xiao Qiu, why are you here?"
"By the way, I heard you and my little brother went out to play? How was it? Was it fun?"
Gu Hanqiu handed the things in his hand to Aunt Ji while replying to her.
"Well enough!"
"You know what? Occasionally going out for a couple of days to play can not only relax your body and mind, but also make the relationship between husband and wife a lot closer."
"Ji Heng moved into the dormitory overnight!"
"By the way! Sister, this is the specialty I brought you."
"They are all seafood, please clean them up before they go bad."
Aunt Ji was not polite and took the bag and opened it on the spot.
"Wow!"
"Xiao Qiu, did you two go rob a fishing boat? So much seafood? It's enough to eat for a long time!"
"Okay, make yourself at home. Don't be polite. I'll go to the kitchen and clean these up."
Aunt Ji is also an impatient person. She wants to clean up the things on the spot as soon as she gets them.
Seeing Aunt Ji enter the kitchen, Gu Hanqiu also found a small stool and sat in the kitchen to help her clean up.
"Sister, when I just came in, I saw Li Erlu."
"Do you know why he came in?"
As soon as he sat down, Gu Hanqiu couldn't wait to ask Aunt Ji about eating the melon.
Aunt Ji is more than 20 years older than Gu Hanqiu. She is also very interested in gossip and will go around to listen to gossip when she has nothing to do.
She just happened to know the answer to the question Gu Hanqiu asked.
Seeing that his sister-in-law was interested, he immediately turned into a storyteller and started explaining to her.
"You mean him?"
"I actually know."
"After that incident, the Li couple wanted to have another son and train him to take over the Li family. However, they gave birth to two daughters in a row. Now that they are old and can't have more children, they are planning to take their eldest son back."
"Li Erlu had a hard time outside for the past two years. When his parents came to pick him up, he didn't resist and came back with them."
After Aunt Ji said this, Gu Hanqiu understood.
Mr. and Mrs. Li had planned to practice the trumpet because the Li family business needed someone to take over.
But the Li family was unlucky. Both of their children were daughters. The Li family had no choice but to bow their heads and take their son back.
Gu Hanqiu sighed a little, even though people now say "women hold up half the sky" and advocate gender equality.
But in the eyes of the older generation, they still prefer boys, otherwise the Li family would not have taken Li Erlu back.
Previously, because of Li Erlu, the Li family lost face in Beijing. Now, in order to continue the family, they don’t even care about their reputation.
If it were Gu Hanqiu, she would definitely not bring the people back, but would directly train the two girls to be successors. In that case, others might even look up to their family.
Now that Li Erlu has gone through so much, he has become much more mature and is doing a good job of taking over the family. He is more reliable than before.
"What about Su Tiantian and Chen Xiaojun?"
"What's going on with them?"
After learning about Li Erlu's situation, Gu Hanqiu asked about the other two people.
Of the three people who became famous back then, one has returned home to take over the family business. I wonder how the other two feel?
Is it envy?
Or regret?
"Them?"
"Hehe... To be honest, it's a bit bad!"
"Su Tiantian, needless to say, has been tortured terribly by Chen Xiaojun and Li Erlu over the years."
"He was so skinny that his body was just skin and bones, and he had a lot of wounds on his body."
"On the day Li Erlu returned home, she refused to give up and wanted to follow him home, but was rejected by Li Erlu."
"I took a look at it, and it looked like a walking skeleton. It was very scary."
"As for Chen Xiaojun, he saw Li Erlu return to the compound, and he wanted to come back too."
"What a shame! He's different from Li Erlu. He has a big brother above him. It doesn't matter whether he comes back or not."
"Brother Chen hates this younger brother who has brought shame to the Chen family, but his parents still feel sorry for their youngest son."
"After all, it's a piece of flesh that fell from her body. How could Mother Chen not feel distressed?"
"However, they also had to consider their eldest son's opinion, so neither of them agreed outright."
"Xiao Qiu, you just saw Li Erlu. If you stayed here for two days, you would see Chen Xiaojun coming to ask for forgiveness."
