"Brother Chen, I have to go back now."
After watching the two walk away, Wu Wen got up and said goodbye to Gu Xichen.
Although he still really wanted to stay and eat pig intestines, he had a feeling that he might have indigestion today.
He should just go back to doing his own thing.
"Wait for me a moment."
Gu Xichen was also going out, and they happened to be going the same way.
However, he still had some things to explain, so he asked Wu Wen to wait for him a little longer.
The construction workers have all come to work now.
Gu Xichen checked their progress and felt that they should order the red bricks in advance and have them shipped back.
In this way, after they have dug the foundation and made the necessary preparations, they can start building directly on it.
Only then will the project progress not be delayed.
We need to prepare the red bricks, and we also need to prepare the rice we promised to give to the helpers in advance.
He told Jiang Jinxiu and the others, then rode his bicycle and followed Wu Wen.
The brick factory is located in Mojia Village, the closest village to their Punan Town. Gu Xichen needs to go there to check with the people there before bringing the bricks to their home.
Wu Wen's large truck can be of good help to him.
"Mosquito, where's your big truck?"
"It's sitting in the parking lot. I'm not busy lately and rarely drive it."
"Okay, then help me haul a few truckloads of red bricks back, and I'll settle the payment with you later."
"Brother Chen, what are you saying? If you have something to say, just tell me. I don't care about money."
Gu Xichen knew what he was thinking, but he didn't want to owe anyone anything.
But now is not the time to argue. We can just give him the money later.
Even close brothers keep clear accounts; what's due should still be given.
Seeing that Gu Xichen remained silent, Wu Wen continued softly, "Brother Chen, I haven't asked you about Yue yesterday. Is she alright? How was her check-up at the hospital? Was she injured?"
A series of questions.
Hearing his brother showing such concern for his wife, Gu Xichen felt a pang of unease, even though Wu Wen didn't know that she was his wife.
He gave Wu Wen a deep look: "It's nothing."
As soon as he finished speaking, he increased the pressure on his feet and rode forward with all his might.
No matter what Wu Wen wanted to ask, he would only give a word or two in response.
Wu Wen was quite helpless about Gu Xichen's reply, but there was nothing he could do. However, after learning that Hu Yue was alright, he was completely relieved.
...
Gu Xichen went to the brick factory in Mojia Village, found the person in charge of the brick factory, explained his purpose, and the factory manager, Mo Kaiming, happily welcomed him in.
Mo Kaiming was Gu Dashan's former comrade-in-arms. After retiring from the army and returning to his hometown, he worked at the red brick factory and worked his way up to his current position.
Actually, he was quite surprised when Gu Dashan found him. There were only a few comrades from the same town, and he had always known that Gu Dashan was unconscious and thought that this was the end of his life and that he would never wake up.
But what he found was a living, breathing person standing right in front of him.
More than anything, I felt shocked and delighted.
In fact, he was very grateful to Gu Dashan.
When they were in the army, Gu Dashan often took care of him.
If it weren't for Gu Dashan, he might not have been able to retire from the army safely.
They hadn't had a chance to visit each other before, but this time Gu Dashan asked for help, and he agreed without hesitation.
Seeing his son now feels like seeing the young Gu Dashan again; it's incredibly heartwarming.
The two were chatting in the office.
The door was suddenly pushed open.
"Dad, Mom asked me to call you home for dinner."
As soon as she finished speaking, she saw a strong, muscular figure with his back to her.
It was obvious that her father had guests again.
When Mo Kaiming saw that it was his precious daughter, his face was full of smiles: "You little girl, how many times have I told you to knock before coming in?"
Although there was some reproach in his words, there was even more affection in them.
"Oh dear, Dad, I didn't know you had guests. Come on, come back quickly, Mom is still waiting for you," Mo Caixia said coquettishly.
After saying that, she turned around and was about to go back.
But Mo Kaiming called out to him, "Come back."
"Why are you running? Come here for a second, Dad will introduce you to someone."
Mo Caixia walked over somewhat reluctantly: "Dad, you want to..."
Before she could finish her sentence, she swallowed it all back down.
Her eyes lit up the moment she saw Gu Xichen.
Handsome features, sharp angles, a straight nose, and thick eyebrows.
How could she possibly forget such a handsome face?
He was once a top student at their school. Not only was he academically excellent, but he was also tall and handsome, and the object of many girls' secret crushes.
However, I also heard that he was a local tyrant and that he had beaten up many people, regardless of gender.
Therefore, girls who secretly admired him never dared to confess their feelings to him. Only a few dared to talk to him, and Mo Caixia was one of them.
Later I heard that he joined the army, and we lost contact after graduation.
The man in front of me was more robust and fairer-skinned than when I was in school.
Don't all soldiers get tanned?
How did he become even paler?
Mo Caixia didn't have time to think too much; all she knew was that she was truly surprised to have run into Gu Xichen again.
"Gu Xichen, how could it be you?"
Mo Kaiming was also surprised to hear his daughter's words: "What, you two know each other?"
This is the young man he is most satisfied with so far.
His daughter has never gotten married, and if she could be with Gu Xichen, he would definitely give her his full support.
