Chapter 136: Prosperity 136: Give You an Egg
Datunzi Village.
Gu Jin received a telegram from the Baisha Island Battalion Headquarters and suddenly left the team headquarters and walked out. Qin Wu happened to come in from the door holding an enamel cup, and the two met each other.
The cup was too full of water and some of it spilled out, soaking my shoes.
Qin Wu said angrily: "What are you doing, fool? You are already the captain, can't you be more serious?"
Gu Jin waved the telegram in his left hand, scratched his head with his right hand, and said with a silly smile: "I got a letter from Chu Dai."
"Okay, I know you have a good son-in-law. I'm going to the brick kiln in the afternoon to check the quality of the red bricks. Do you want to go?" Qin Wu shook off the water stains on his shoes, which were still wet and a little annoyed.
How could this fool suddenly become so reckless? Normally he would not even be moved by thunder.
Gu Jin shook his head and said, "I won't go this afternoon. I have to go home and tell my parents the good news."
"Hmm?" Qin Wu hesitated, "Your Chu Dai got promoted again? Didn't you say he was the most powerful person on the island? You wouldn't lie to me, would you?"
"Who said he is the biggest on the island?" Gu Jin felt a little guilty, thinking that he was just bragging after drinking too much. He couldn't help but be proud: "My Qingqing is pregnant. I have a granddaughter!"
Qin Wu snorted and squinted at him: "Look at what your Gu family is capable of. It's just a granddaughter, and only the old men in your Gu family treat her like a treasure."
"Then you are wrong." Gu Jin smiled and pointed with his fingers: "Yes!"
Qin Wu: “…” I really can’t stand seeing him showing off like this. I don’t know what luck the Gu family has. Then, he thought of something.
"Foolish boy, don't forget that your two sons are also twins. Maybe this time they will have two grandchildren." He said gloatingly.
Gu Jin was unmoved and remained cheerful: "As long as they are my dear children, they are the treasures of our Gu family."
After saying this, he didn't bother to argue with Qin Wu and ran home like a gust of wind.
Zhang Cuifen and the others were sewing insoles at home, the mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law were chatting, and Gu Cai took Zhang Yuqing back to the city.
Seeing their son coming back panting on his bicycle, throwing the bicycle that was usually so heavy that it could not move casually into the corner, the women looked at each other.
What's the big deal in this team?
Without waiting for them to ask, Gu Jin handed over the telegram with a smile on his face: "Mom, A-Dai wrote to say Qingqing is pregnant! And it's two! Hehe, I'm a grandfather now."
Zhang Cuifen was stunned for a moment, then quickly took the telegram and opened the envelope, but she was illiterate and fumbled around in confusion. She then called to her eldest daughter-in-law next to her, "Big sister, take a quick look at what it says."
Shi Rushuang was extremely anxious. Her hands were shaking when she received the telegram. But when she saw the words clearly, she was delighted. "Adai said Qingqing is one and a half months pregnant. The military doctor who has a good relationship with them diagnosed her with twins after taking her pulse. It must be true."
"Oh my God! God bless my Qingqing!" Han Lianxin also cried out: "Mom, sister-in-law, we can't go to the island, we have to send something to Qingqing. Do you have bacon and bacon at home? And prepare clothes and shoes for the two children. If not, I have to go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy fabrics."
As she said this, she went into the room to look for money and cloth coupons.
Shi Rushuang and Zhang Cuifen only then realized that the mother and daughter had no time to care about the money and were wandering around like aimless flies, mumbling about what to do.
Gu Jin hesitated and thought about going to the brick kiln in the afternoon.
At the Southern Military Region Headquarters, a guard held a telegram and said to Chu Yuan, who was standing in front of the sand table, "Report, Commander, your telegram."
Chu Yuan was discussing a joint air-land exercise with Chu Zhan, the commander of the Air Force Group Army, and the commander of the Field Army. When he heard what he said, he frowned and took the telegram: "Where is it from?"
"White Sand Island Camp Headquarters."
Chu Yuan was stunned for a moment, and then he heard Chu Zhan slowly say: "It must be from your Chu Daifa, let's take a look."
Chu Yuan snorted coldly, "He won't give me any water even if the Yellow River floods back." Although he said this, his hands did not stop moving.
When he opened it, Chu Zhan came up to take a look and taunted him, "This time the Yellow River is flooding back, Comrade Chief."
"This is at the headquarters." Chu Yuan glanced at him calmly, "Watch your tone when talking to your superiors."
Chu Zhan immediately put down the enamel cup in his hand and saluted: "Yes, Chief."
Chu Yuan returned his gaze to the telegram. He did not speak for a long time after reading it. His brows were almost twisted into a knot, and it took him a long time to relax.
Chu Zhan was frightened by this. He asked tentatively, "Is A-Dai okay?"
Chu Yuan finally came back to his senses, and then he laughed heartily, startling the people around him.
Chu Zhan's hands shook and he almost dropped the enamel cup.
What kind of epilepsy is this bandit leader having? !
Chu Yuan had never felt so relieved before. He threw the telegram directly into Chu Zhan's arms and said, "See for yourself. This is the first time I like this brat."
Chu Zhan was originally wondering what Chu Dai had posted. He just glanced at the name at the beginning, but now after reading it sentence by sentence, he couldn't help but jump up.
"Old Chu! Does your family have an heir? Or two!" He was really happy for Chu Yuan. After so many years of fighting with him, they were no longer just superiors and subordinates. Too many people in the Chu family had sacrificed their lives, and this was indeed great news.
Moreover, in his conservative thinking, the descendants of Chu Yuan's brothers have nothing to do with him, and his own children and grandchildren are still reliable.
The field army commander probably understood the situation clearly, and a smile appeared on his weather-beaten face unconsciously: "Congratulations, Commander."
Guard Xiao Xu couldn't help but smile. Sister Qingqing is pregnant? That's great.
Chu Yuan approached Chu Zhan who was still reading the telegram and said embarrassedly, "Old Chu, you should pay off your small debt first. I have to use my monthly allowance to buy something for Qingqing and send it to her. It's not easy for her to stay on the island with that little bastard."
Chu Zhan expressed his understanding and said, "Okay, you can pay it back next month." When Chu Dai and his wife got married, they almost emptied the Chu family's savings. It has been three or four months, and there is still a sum left to be paid off.
Chu Yuan coughed lightly, "Well, can you lend me some more? The money I have isn't enough. It should be enough to buy some supplements for your niece-in-law, right?"
Chu Zhan couldn't believe it, and couldn't help but raise his voice a few cents: "Your allowance is more than 300 yuan a month, what are you going to buy for your daughter-in-law and grandson? Dragon meat!"
The commander of the field army, who didn't say much, took out a large stack of money from his pocket and slapped it on the sand table. "Commander, it's been a while since Old Chu's been doing this. I'll lend you this money. There's no rush to pay it back. After the exercise is over, we in the field army want to ask the air force for two people to help us with training. What do you think?"
Chu Yuan looked at the stunned Chu Zhao, took the bills from the sand table, counted them slowly, and chuckled, "Okay, I think that Gu Canyang is pretty good. Their pilots are trained in special operations, and their skills are no worse than your scouts. I think he's good enough."
"No," Chu Zhan said with some pain, "How can the Air Force help you? They are not from the same branch of the military. I don't agree."
"This is an order." Chu Yuan was too lazy to listen to him and turned his head to look at the guard: "Go and see if Chu Dai has sent a telegram to Gu Canyang. If not, go and tell him the good news."
"yes!"
After the guards left, Chu Zhan sighed. A higher-ranking official can suppress others to death, not to mention that Chu Yuan was his lifelong leader.
He said to the commander of the field army: "Gu Canyang will only be loaned to you for two days at most, and you must return him to me."
"Five days." The field army commander said slowly.
Facing Chu Yuan's pressing gaze, he waved his hands and drank a sip of water irritably: "Okay, okay, five days."
"Let me make it clear to you first. Gu Canyang was bought by the Air Force with money. He is priceless. If anything goes wrong, don't blame me, Old Chu, for turning my back on him."
"I know. It's just for communication and training. Our comrades in the field army are very friendly."
Chu Zhan sneered.
Border town, build a corps.
Gu Qinglie had been grinning the whole afternoon after receiving the telegram. Yu Fugui, Zhang Chao and Lao Zhu from the pig farm all knew that Gu Qingqing had the good news, and they got together to discuss what specialties to send to her.
Gu Qinglie's heart had already flown to Baisha Island in the south. He took out all the money he had and asked Sun Shufen to go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some things for him. Tomorrow when Yu Fugui went to the market to buy vegetables, he could ask him to bring them over to the train station.
After doing all this, he intensified his training, hoping to have a vacation when the girl gave birth, so that he could go to the island to see her.
white sand island.
It's night.
The lights on the second floor were dim. Gu Qingqing was sitting by the bed, sewing clothes for Chu Dai. At the table by the window, Chu Dai was watching Shen Sui doing his homework.
She looked up at the man's thin back, then glanced at the even thinner Shen Sui next to him, wondering how to make Shen Sui gain some weight.
In the silent night, the man's voice was clear and gentle, while Shen Sui's voice was childish and dull. Gu Qingqing felt a little drowsy after listening to them.
Chu Dai saw no movement behind him for a long time, so he turned around and saw the woman threading a needle with his army green shirt on her legs.
He smiled silently, thinking that the little woman couldn't bear it anymore and fell asleep.
Gu Qingqing was touched. She looked up to meet his dark eyes, her eyebrows curved into crescent shapes in a smile.
Chu Dai smiled softly and asked her, "Are you hungry?"
Gu Qingqing was really curious. She didn't say anything, but just looked at him eagerly.
How could the man not understand? He stood up with his hands on his knees and rubbed the boy's head, who was quietly doing his homework. "I'm going to cook noodles. What do you want to add?"
"Shrimp." Shen Sui's voice was cold.
"No." The man glanced at the woman behind him, "Your sister can't eat cold food. Change it."
Shen Sui sighed unnoticeably, "I can do anything as long as I listen to my brother-in-law."
Chu Dai couldn't help but curl his lips and ruffle his black hair, "Okay, then let's have pickled mustard tuber and shredded pork noodles."
Gu Qingqing nodded repeatedly.
Chu Dai went out and passed by the bed. While Shen Sui was doing her homework, he leaned over and kissed her forehead, whispering, "I'll give you an egg."
Gu Qingqing's forehead was moist and warm. She smiled and pushed the man, "Okay."
Chu Dai's footsteps disappeared at the stairs.
Gu Qingqing bit off the cotton thread, put away the needle and thread, and casually put the man's shirt aside.
