Sheng Yingying brought Diandian back, and when they were two hundred meters away from their home, they ran into Gu Zhonghua.
Gu Zhonghua saw something, and his eyes lit up like Grandma Wolf seeing Little Red Riding Hood.
Rushed over impatiently.
Pick up a little bit.
She took the small basket from Diandian's hand and handed it to Sheng Yingying, "Go back and tell your brother and sister-in-law that I borrowed Diandian for something and will return the child to you in the evening."
Finished.
Gu Zhonghua ran away like a gust of wind, holding the child.
Sheng Yingying stood there with a frown, looking at Gu Zhonghua's back, and shook her head in confusion.
What are you going to do with the child?
In town.
department store.
Gu Zhonghua walked in holding Diandian.
Came to the counter.
"Comrade, what do you want to buy?"
"Do you have any incense for this child?"
"What?"
“It’s just the smell of rubbing your face!”
"Oh, yes."
As he spoke, he pulled out several products from the shelf. "This one is clam oil, which is best used in winter. If your hands and feet are chapped or cracked, just apply it on for a few days and they'll be fine. This one is Yumeijing Children's Cream, which is what everyone calls fragrant. It smells good when you rub it in. Which one do you want?"
Gu Zhonghua looked at the two items, coughed lightly, and then asked, "Which one can turn whiter if rubbed for a long time?"
The cashier thought for a moment and pointed at the children's cream. "I think this can whiten your skin. It smells like milk. I heard that rich people in big cities use milk to wash their faces to whiten their skin. So I think something with milk added should whiten your skin. But your daughter is already fair, so she doesn't need to be whitened anymore."
Diandian stared at the teller with her big eyes, innocent and naive, with a very cute face. The teller praised her, "Your child is really good-looking, fair and tender. This little red hat is so handsome."
When someone praised her Little Red Riding Hood, Diandian immediately raised her two chubby hands, pinched the brim of the hat, and said with a smile, "This was made for me by my mother."
The teller smiled and said, "Then your mother is really clever and skillful."
When Diandian heard someone praising Zhou Sese, she acted even happier than when someone was praising herself, and the child shook her head.
Gu Zhonghua pointed at Yumeijing Children's Cream and said, "I'll take this. Give me two bags."
After paying.
Gu Zhonghua put two bags of children's cream into his pockets and spent a huge amount of money to buy two lollipops for Diandian.
Diandian stared at the two candies with her mouth watering.
Go out to the department store.
Gu Zhonghua held Diandian in one hand and two candies in the other. "Do you want to eat?"
Nodding repeatedly.
All the saliva was splashed down and fell into Gu Zhonghua's hand.
Gu Zhonghua's eyes flashed with a hint of teasing, "Uncle Gu can give you the candy, he can give you both candies, but you have to agree to one request from Uncle Gu."
Diandian's eyes finally fell from the candy to Gu Zhonghua's face, "Uncle, then tell me quickly!"
She can't wait to eat candy!
I couldn't control my drooling, and it felt like my mouth was flooding and was about to be full.
Gu Zhonghua lowered his voice and said, "You have to promise uncle that you can't tell anyone about my shopping today. This is a secret between the two of us. If you promise to keep it a secret, I'll give you the candy."
What’s so difficult about this!
Diandian nodded her head immediately, "I promise, I promise uncle!"
Gu Zhonghua handed the candy to Diandian. Diandian carefully put one piece away and impatiently tore open the other one and put it into her mouth. The sweetness spread instantly and the sweetness reached her heart, making her feel satisfied!
On the way back.
Diandian hugged Gu Zhonghua's neck and said, "Uncle, next time you come secretly to buy incense, can you bring me with you?"
Gu Zhonghua: “…”

Gao family
Gao Tianguang rode his rickshaw in and casually parked it in the corner. As soon as he entered the door, he saw Gao Yang dressed up beautifully and about to go out.
Gao Tianguang asked, "Where are you going? To the military dependents' quarters?"
Gao Yang nodded.
Gao Tianguang frowned.
Gao Yang waved his hand and said, "Brother, I'm leaving now. Goodbye."
Gao Tianguang watched his sister leave silently, his brows still furrowed.
Gao's mother, Wu Xiumei, came down from upstairs. "When did you come back? Where's your sister?"
Gao Tianguang pointed outside the door.
Wu Xiumei smiled and shook her head. "This girl won't stay home for even a minute. She flies around like a little swallow all day. I don't know where she gets all the energy."
Gao Tianguang planned to talk to Wu Xiumei about the matter. "Mom, Yangyang is not young anymore. It's time to worry about her lifelong affairs. You should talk to her more when you have time. There is a deputy battalion commander in the military region who might be interested in her."
"A soldier."
"That's not bad."
"Do you understand? What's he like? What's his family situation like?"
Gao Tianguang was silent for two seconds, then said speechlessly, "It's mainly because he's too old. He's six or seven years older than your daughter."
Wu Xiumei thought about it and said very openly, "Being a few years older isn't a problem. As long as your sister likes him, he looks acceptable, treats her well, and is considerate enough, that's all that's fine, isn't it?"
Gao Tianguang: "...Yangyang is only twenty years old. You can't let her find a man who is almost thirty years old."
Wu Xiumei suddenly sneered, "You know you're already an old man at almost thirty? Don't you see how old you are? You're worrying about your sister's lifelong affairs, but you don't even have a partner yourself. How can you say that?"
In the past, you were busy with your career and always used this as an excuse to deal with me. Now that you've resigned, you're not busy with your career anymore, right? I'll ask my colleagues these days if they have any suitable girls to introduce to you. You must go on a blind date for me!"
Gao Tianguang touched his nose and said, "Mom, I don't even have a formal job right now. How could any decent girl be willing to be with me? Wait a minute. Once my career gets going again, we can consider marriage."
Wu Xiumei was furious and anxious. "You're the one who's right. You're the one who's wrong. You didn't look for a partner when you had a career, and you didn't look for one when you didn't. You just want to piss me off to death. The son of our deputy director of the department is three years younger than you, and he already has two children."
Gao Tianguang: “…”
Wu Xiumei sighed, "No matter what I say, you'll still do what you want to do. I don't know if I'll be able to see my grandson before I die."
Gao Tianguang was helpless, "Mom, you are talking nonsense again."
Wu Xiumei picked up her work bag and walked out. "How can you be called a liar? I'm going to the hospital for my shift. I'll wait for your dad to come back and cook dinner tonight."
Gao Tianguang agreed.
After Wu Xiumei left, Gao Tianguang unfolded the county map on the coffee table, looked at the scattered township coal mines, and fell into deep thought.
Not to mention the subsequent equipment, just taking over these township coal mines would require a considerable amount of money...
