Shi Shi decided to quit while she was ahead, as she was afraid that this guy would get annoyed and start telling her stupid stories from his childhood.
"When will my eldest brother come back? He's been gone for two months, right?"
Gu Zhan's hands kept moving, and a small mountain of food had piled up on the plate in front of Wei Ci, while he did not forget to respond to Wei Ci's questions.
"It will be soon. He's taking the new recruits to the mountains for training this time. It won't take long."
The three of them ate and chatted, talking about the recent changes at home and abroad, and expressed surprise from time to time.
"By the way, Aci, when are you going to the capital? Bring me something for my mom. It's the skin care product you made for me. It works really well."
Her father is in the army and can't come home once a year, and her mother is in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and is so busy that she is rarely seen.
I don’t know how the couple maintains their relationship when they can’t see each other all year round.
How could they live in peace and harmony for the rest of their lives?!
"It's a platonic marriage." She couldn't do it.
"No, yours is for pregnant women and may not be suitable for aunt. I have some here. Let her choose it herself when the time comes."
She met all of Gu Zhan's relatives at her eldest brother's wedding banquet, including her future father-in-law who loved fishing, so she naturally followed Gu Zhan's lead.
When it comes to going to the capital, Shi Shi is particularly curious.
"Do you really want to cooperate with that Qiao Mu? How can you, a medical researcher, cooperate with her?"
Take a look at the TV, refrigerator, and air conditioner in the house. Isn't that what Qiao Mu was researching? This has nothing to do with medicine.
"Well, maybe it's going to develop into medical machinery?"
This is the speculation that Wei Ci came up with based on some internal gossip.
Qiao Mu had a very clear-cut personality and was extremely hostile to foreigners. When he learned that medical equipment used in China had to pay large amounts of patent fees to foreign countries every year, he clapped his hands and decided to produce it himself.
She is good at mechanics, but she knows nothing about medicine, so she can only find someone who knows the most. Wei Ci is well-known, young, and can keep up with her train of thought, so he is naturally the best candidate.
Nowadays, medicine is flourishing in Huazhou, and the unit where Wei Ci is located has benefited the most. Many things that are not available outside can be enjoyed by almost everyone here, and other military regions have envied them for this.
The medicinal bath that strengthens the body can maximize their strength and strengthen their bones.
The potion that can unleash a person's maximum potential will make those who are already very fast even faster. When they run at full speed, only an afterimage will be seen.
There are also some medicines that are much more effective than those outside, which greatly reduces the casualties of the troops.
So, as the saying goes, a person's reputation is like a tree's shadow, it is not surprising that Wei Ci was chosen.
"When will you be back? Can you catch up with me when I give birth?"
She is six months old now and doesn't know if she can wait until Wei Ci comes back. She heard that a child will look like the first person he sees when he opens his eyes. Although she is not ugly, her sister-in-law is extremely beautiful. She is very happy that the child looks like her.
Wei Ci was also unsure. Once in the laboratory, he was busy day and night, and the most easily overlooked thing was time.
"I'll try my best. If it really doesn't work out, my sister-in-law can go to the capital to give birth. Auntie will find a confinement nanny for you then. Stay here. Big brother is on a mission unexpectedly, and my uncle is very busy. Who will take care of you?"
Shi Shi had a headache, and this was also the problem she was thinking about.
Her parents on her mother's side are busier than spinning tops, and her husband's parents have no parents at all, only her sister-in-law and brother-in-law, who are also busy as spinning tops. She has never taken care of a child and doesn't even know how to change a diaper. What should she do then?
"Take Aunt Huang with you. You're used to her care, and she has experience in looking after children."
Wei Ci suggested that Aunt Huang was the one who came to take care of her.
Shi Shi shook her head and refused, "No, she is here to take care of you, how can she take care of me? Don't worry, my mother will definitely arrange everything when the time comes."
"Getting married and having kids is such a hassle."
Gu Zhan's sensitive radar instantly locked onto the keyword, and his heart skipped a beat.
"Don't worry, if you don't want to have children, then we won't have any in our lifetime, but you can't say that marriage is troublesome."
Anyway, with the two sons born to his eldest brother to support them, the Gu family should not be extinct.
Wei Ci had just casually sighed, but she hadn't expected Gu Zhan to take it seriously. After a moment of confusion, she smiled helplessly, reached out and held his hand, and said seriously:
"What are you thinking about? It's okay if you don't want to get married. I'm just saying this, don't think too much."
Shi Shi covered her lips and smiled secretly. She didn't expect that her cousin was so eager to get married.
Gu Zhan breathed a sigh of relief. When would these days of fear end? No! He had to persuade his brother-in-law. If that didn't work, he would go to the political commissar and take the huge stack of photos. He just wouldn't believe it. Whether they were fat or thin, there wasn't a single one he liked!
Wei Ci had no idea what her boyfriend was thinking. She was busy categorizing the many projects she had on hand. She would hand over the completed ones first, and temporarily seal the unfinished ones and continue them when she came back.
"Be careful when you go to the capital. If you need anything, go find my dad. If that doesn't work, you can also find my eldest brother and his wife. They are both in the Capital Military Region."
As for other aunts and uncles, they are too busy and we rarely see them during the Chinese New Year, let alone on weekdays.
Wei Ci nodded and carefully took note of Gu Zhan's instructions.
The more he looked at her, the softer his heart became. Gu Zhan reached out and pulled her into his arms, holding her tightly.
"What should I do? I'm already beginning to miss you and want to keep you by my side all the time."
He had never thought that one day he would be so worried about a girl that he would want to hold her in his hands and keep her in his heart.
Wei Ci rolled her eyes and patted his back, signaling him to relax.
"You've been away on missions for a month or half a year, and I've never seen you so reluctant to leave."
Gu Zhan choked and didn't know what to say for a long time.
He was so tender and affectionate here, but the little object poured a basin of cold water on him, and all his sticky things turned into a mess.
He pinched her slender waist hard and lifted her up, holding her hips and letting her wrap around his waist. Gu Zhan pressed her lower back with one hand and pressed the back of her neck with the other hand, then bent down and kissed her.
His little girlfriend is allergic to sweet talk, so he should just express his feelings through direct actions.
Wei Ci will complete the laboratory projects here, and the only thing left is the clinical trials, which can be handed over to others.
After saying goodbye to the reluctant crowd, I turned around and got into the car.
"Where are we going?"
Seeing that the direction was getting further and further away, Wei Ci wondered if this was the way out of the military area.
"There's a plane coming to Kyoto to pick you up."
The little soldier holding the gun had bright eyes and excitement.
That's the latest version of the attack helicopter!
They have heard of it, but have not seen it!
The production is limited, and several military regions are fighting over it. The troops have applied to go up and don’t know when it will be their turn. I didn’t expect to see it today!
