Chapter 40 Lu Chiyu was presented with a banner
She sat in the front, and when the soldier rode his bike, wouldn't she be sitting in his arms?
Sure enough, when they got on the bike, they were almost touching each other. When Gu Yuan stretched out his hand and rode the bike, Lu Chiyu felt her fall into his arms, her back against his broad and hard chest, which made her feel safe.
His body temperature was high. Lu Chiyu smelled the unique cool scent on him and her face turned red instantly, her heart pounding.
At this moment, Lu Chiyu felt that the sea breeze blowing towards him was sweet...
Coincidentally, Gu Yuan also felt that the wind on the island today was particularly sweet...
Captain Gu rode his bike fast and steadily. Fifteen minutes later, they returned to the military area. As soon as they entered the gate of the family compound, they heard the sound of gongs and drums coming from afar.
Lu Chiyu asked curiously, "Yuanyuan, why are there gongs and drums in the military area?"
"It sounds like someone is coming to deliver a thank-you letter or a banner to the military district."
When sending thank-you letters or banners to others, they are usually accompanied by drums and gongs. This is a characteristic of this era.
Lu Chiyu became even more curious: "I don't know what it is about, or who it's for. The person who received it must be very famous."
The most important thing is to have such experience, which will be very helpful in both work and life in the future.
Lu Chiyu was just joking around from the perspective of a bystander, but she didn't expect that this magnificent scenery would fall into her hands.
And then her true feeling was… awkward.
When they returned home, they saw a lively group of people gathered there.
"They're back. Xiao Gu and his wife are back." When Political Commissar Hai saw Lu Chiyu and the others, his eyes lit up and he said to the people around him.
Upon hearing this, Xu Gong and his son's family of three immediately walked towards Lu Chiyu and the others excitedly.
Brigade Commander Qin and several leaders hurried to follow.
"Xiao Gu, Xiao Lu, this is Engineer Xu from our military research institute. Xiao Lu, I never thought that a little girl like you could outsmart the human traffickers on the train, capture the criminals, and save Engineer Xu's grandson. You are really amazing!"
Brigade Commander Qin gave Lu Chiyu a thumbs-up and continued, "Mr. Xu and his family came here today to present a banner to you, Comrade Lu."
At this time, Xu Gong finally had the chance to speak: "Little girl, thank you so much for saving my grandson Hongyuan. Otherwise, this old man might never see him in this life."
Xu Wenlan, Xu Gong's daughter-in-law, excitedly stepped forward and took Lu Chiyu's hand. "Comrade Lu Chiyu, I don't know how to thank you. Not only did you save Xiaoyuan, you also saved our whole family. We really can't imagine what would have happened to our family if Xiaoyuan hadn't been found."
Then she said to the five-year-old Xu Hongyuan, who was being held by her husband Xu Zhishu, "Xiaoyuan, come and thank this big sister. If it weren't for her, you wouldn't be able to see your grandfather and your parents again."
The little boy had obviously been taught by his family. After hearing what his mother said, he immediately stepped forward and bowed to Lu Chiyu earnestly: "Thank you, big sister, thank you for saving Xiaoyuan."
The five-year-old boy is fair and clean, and looks gentle and clean. When he performs this set of movements, he actually looks like a little gentleman.
Lu Chiyu didn't take a good look at what the child she saved looked like at that time. Now, seeing the cute and well-behaved little bun thanking her seriously, her eyes suddenly lit up.
She wasn't particularly fond of creatures like children, but she couldn't resist the cute and well-behaved little bun.
So she couldn't help but reach out and touch the other person's head and said with a smile: "You're welcome, it's just a small favor, big sister, you just need to grow up safely in the future."
Seeing Lu Chiyu's love for children, Gu Yuan couldn't help but darken his eyes.
Hearing Lu Chiyu's simple yet sincere blessing, the adults in the Xu family were even more moved.
Xu Gong said to his assistant, "Xiao Liu, quickly bring the banner over."
Then Lu Chiyu saw a man in his twenties wearing glasses solemnly unfurl a silk banner, and at the same time, a burst of gongs and drums sounded...
Lu Chiyu was even startled by the sudden sound of gongs and drums, but it seemed that she was the only one who was scared at the scene.
It seems that everyone is familiar with this process!
Later, Lu Chiyu realized that the above was just an appetizer, and the following process was really awkward.
Shaking hands, shouting slogans, taking photos, receiving banners and thank-you letters, Lu Chiyu was already embarrassed after going through the whole process, but it was obvious that everyone at the scene was very satisfied with it except her...
When leaving, Brigade Commander Qin also told Lu Chiyu that she would be commended for her brave act this time, and asked her to wait, as the reward would be given to her immediately once it came.
After finally seeing off Xu Gong, Brigade Commander Qin and other military district leaders, the surrounding military wives came up again to congratulate Lu Chiyu.
Knowing that Lu Chiyu and the others were having a dinner party today, the military wives all expressed their willingness to help.
It was hard to refuse such a kind offer, and in the end Lu Chiyu repeatedly declined, but seven or eight other military wives, including Qian Fanghua, stayed to help.
"Hey, Xiao Lu, why did you buy all these little things? They're hard to handle, and they're all in shells, so they won't keep well. Did someone greedy at the seafood station trick you into buying these unwanted things?"
Qian Fanghua couldn't help but exclaim when she saw the basket full of seafood.
The other military wives were just as excited as Qian Fanghua when they saw these seafood scraps. The hot-tempered Guo Caixia even scolded them, "Xiao Lu, tell me which heartless person cheated you. I'm going to take the things back to him right now."
This statement was also recognized by everyone.
Lu Chiyu didn't expect them to be so excited, but after thinking about it, he understood that in their minds, these small seafoods were used to make fertilizer for pigs. It was really unscrupulous for the seafood station to sell this stuff to her, and sell her a whole basket of it at a time.
She hurriedly said: "Don't get me wrong, sisters-in-law, I got these small seafood for free at the seafood station, they didn't charge me."
I heard that Qian Fanghua and the others looked much better now that they don’t have to pay money.
Qian Fanghua asked doubtfully, "Xiao Lu, why did you bring these things back? Are you planning to eat them?"
"right."
Qian Fanghua was just asking to test the waters. She hadn't expected Lu Chiyu to actually cook it. After she was surprised, she quickly advised, "Xiao Lu, these little things don't have much meat on them, and they're tasteless. It might not be appropriate to put them on the table for your dinner today."
She was actually being tactful in her words. In their opinion, no one would serve such garbage to guests.
As he said that, he suddenly slapped his forehead and said, "Xiao Lu, did you guys not buy any vegetables? My sister-in-law has some sausages and bacon at home. I'll go get some."
Upon hearing this, Guo Caixia and the others agreed and said that they also wanted to go home to get things.
Seeing this scene, Lu Chiyu was at a loss whether to laugh or cry, and quickly said that the vegetables she and Gu Yuan bought were more than enough, and there were still a lot of "housewarming gifts" left at home from Qian Fanghua and the others.
She brought these small seafoods back with the intention of making a dish of small seafood in sauce, which is very delicious.
Qian Fanghua was skeptical: "Xiao Lu, do you think this seafood sauce can really make these little things taste good?"
