"Brother Gu, you have to take good care of yourself and your sister-in-law. We will come to you after the college entrance examination!"
At the train station, Huangmao and the others burst into tears, tugging at Gu Hui's sleeves and sobbing, trying to wipe their tears and snot all over him. Gu Hui pushed their heads away with a finger and said, "Don't come to me if you embarrass yourself again."
What's the point of crying? Why weren't they so reluctant to part with him when he left before?
The yellow-haired man paused and laughed awkwardly, "Hehehehe: This is excitement~" As soon as they thought of the six-digit deposit in the bank card, everyone was so excited that they wanted to dance.
They were all shocked when their sister-in-law gave them their salary the day before yesterday.
Six figures! The most money they had ever seen in their lives was four figures. They always paid tuition before the money was even warm in their pockets. But now... thinking about how their parents would no longer have to work so hard and they wouldn't have to worry about tuition fees, they all wanted to be packed up and taken away by Brother Gu.
Why go to school? Only by following Brother Gu can you have a future!
Unfortunately, they were beaten up by Brother Gu as soon as they opened their mouths (I haven’t been beaten for a long time, and I inexplicably missed it).
Gu Hui said with a cold face: "Study hard and get into a good university. If Xiang Yuan tells me that someone doesn't study hard and fights all day, don't come to me."
Xihe added with a smile, "Your brother Gu is going to do great things in the future. You have to keep up with his footsteps."
Xiang Yuan was the first to nod: "Brother Gu, don't worry, I will definitely get into the best school and help you in the future!" Seeing this, Huangmao and others raised their hands and swore that they would study hard in the future and never be lazy.
A smile slowly appeared on Gu Hui's face: "I'll wait for you in Guangshi."
At this moment, the sound of the train arriving at the station came from the radio, urging everyone to get on the train quickly. Several teenagers immediately helped carry their things and sent them to the ticket gate, then watched Gu Hui and his group walk in and disappear from their sight.
Li Wai'an was quiet and went wherever Gu Hui led him.
Uncle Li, carrying bags and bags, looked around excitedly. He was finally leaving this hellhole and going to the big city to enjoy a peaceful life. Secretary Li pushed him and said, "Mr. Li, this way."
"Oh oh oh, okay, okay, I'll come."
He approached Secretary Li and kept asking what Guangshi was like, whether they lived in a villa, or drove a luxury car.
Secretary Li was overwhelmed by what he heard and could only say "hmm" and "ahh" without saying a word.
Xihe walked beside Gu Hui: "Grandpa, are you feeling okay?"
Gu Hui carefully supported the old man: "It's okay for now."
Because they were worried that Grandpa Li might get into trouble on the plane due to his old age, the group took the train. Fortunately, Grandpa Li was smiling until the train started, and there was nothing wrong.
Gu Hui's tense shoulders relaxed and he breathed a long sigh of relief.
It took more than 20 hours to drive from Lin County to Guang City. Gu Hui kept a close eye on Grandpa Li's condition. When he relaxed for a moment, his attention turned to his girlfriend. He felt very guilty: "Momo, I..."
Xihe shook his head and said indifferently: "Have a good rest, everything will be fine when we get to Guangshi."
Gu Hui nodded and couldn't help but hold her hand tightly: "Okay."
The train arrived at the station in the evening of the next day. The sky was covered with sunset clouds. The square was bustling with people wearing cool clothes. Xihe was just about to make a phone call when a middle-aged couple came over from the opposite direction.
Mother Jiang trotted over and gave her daughter a big hug: "Mommy's baby!"
Father Jiang followed behind and asked: "Did you have a smooth journey?"
Gu Hui's heart tightened, and he felt awkward for no reason. He managed to remain calm: "Thank you Uncle Jiang for your concern. Have a safe trip."
Dad Jiang nodded, looked at Grandpa Li and greeted him, and also said a few words to Uncle Li. However, when Uncle Li saw Dad Jiang, he became timid, grunting and blushing, and couldn't say a word for a long time.
Father Jiang's expression remained unchanged. He simply said, "I've made an appointment with a doctor for Mr. Li. Let's go to the hospital for a checkup first."
When Mother Jiang heard this, she put her arm around her daughter's shoulders and said to Gu Hui with a smile, "Grandpa is old and he's been on the train for such a long time. It would be more reassuring if we go get him checked first."
There was naturally no reason for Gu Hui to refuse, but he was still full of doubts.
Why did they accept him so easily? He was an illegitimate child and could not bring any benefits.
He could understand his girlfriend's behavior as being blinded by love, but what about Jiang's father and mother? They were adults, and Jiang's father had worked his way up from a poor boy to where he is today. Didn't he take these things into consideration?
Gu Hui was puzzled.
Father Jiang flicked the cigarette in his hand and said, "Because I don't want Jiang Mo to follow her mother's path."
At that time, his father-in-law and mother-in-law did not agree with him being with Jiang's mother. They thought that he was not good-looking and his family was poor. In order to separate them, they even locked their daughter at home for a time.
But how could a man and a woman in love be defeated by these things?
The more his father-in-law and mother-in-law opposed them, the more they longed to be together. In the end, Mother Jiang even jumped off the second-floor balcony and eloped with him.
"You can't let me down, right? I have no one else but you."
At that time, Mother Jiang always held his face and said this, her beautiful face full of fear for the future.
He knew her insecurities and knew that she had no regrets, so he worked very hard and climbed up the ladder until he got to where he is now... He could clearly see the feelings in his daughter's eyes for the boy. It was not a momentary impulse of hormones. She really wanted to be with the boy.
He admitted that he didn't care as much about his daughter as he did about his wife, but that was his blood.
She is the only daughter he and his wife have. As a father, he has to put a lot of things in place for her, so even though he feels helpless, he has no choice but to accept it.
The only difference between him and his father-in-law and mother-in-law is that he is willing to keep a close eye on people. Once a person shows signs of becoming a heartless person, he can act decisively and deal with him personally.
Father Jiang patted the boy's shoulder and smiled gently: "Gu Hui, I'll leave Jiang Mo to you. You can't let her down."
Gu Hui's eyes suddenly turned red. He quickly lowered his head and blinked hard. Then he raised his head with a firm gaze: "Uncle, don't worry, I will never let Momo down. I swear on my life!"
Father Jiang smiled and turned to talk about his future plans.
Gu Hui listened attentively, nodding or asking questions from time to time. Father Jiang was very satisfied with his seriousness.
The hospital's examination was quick, and considering Grandpa Li's age and need for rest, they arranged a ward after the examination. Seeing this, Xihe took the opportunity to persuade Father Jiang to arrange for him to be placed in a nursing home, where there would be dedicated caregivers and Grandpa Li would receive the best possible care.
Father Jiang glanced at her and said, "Okay, just do as Jiang Mo said."
