Chapter 168: Leave the House with Nothing
After Chen Yuling and Yuan Weide met up in the county town, they took a stroll and then went to a state-owned restaurant for a meal.
The meals in the Youth League Home were all from a big pot, without any oil or water, and I was so craving for meat.
"Brother Wei De, you choose. I like everything you choose." Chen Yuling glanced at the menu, then looked at the man in front of her and spoke with a smile.
She looked and liked all the dishes on the menu.
Yuan Weide was very satisfied with his partner's gentleness and thoughtfulness, and he ordered more generously. "Then give me some braised pork, stewed chicken with mushrooms, fried fish, scrambled eggs, 10 meat buns, and 20 steamed buns."
"Let's take the buns and steamed buns back to the village. Look at you, I haven't seen you for half a month, and you've lost a lot of weight." He looked at the weak woman opposite him with some heartache in his eyes.
Chen Yuling looked at him shyly and nodded obediently.
The two of them found an empty seat and sat down while waiting for their food, exchanging glances from time to time.
Yuan Wei De's family lived in a large compound in the Beijing area. His family was well off. Chen Yuling was the niece of his second aunt. The two had known each other before, but his mother did not like Chen Yuling and said that she was a poor relative of his second aunt.
When he was in Beijing, although he had some feelings for her, there was no need to make his mother unhappy, so he was not very enthusiastic towards her.
But he didn't expect that she loved him so much and would follow him to the countryside to suffer.
And the more they spent time together, the more he saw the charm of Yu Ling. She was considerate, understanding, beautiful, and would encourage herself in the face of difficult circumstances.
Now, he has some plans to marry her.
Chen Yuling naturally noticed the change in his attitude towards her, and her lowered eyes were full of determination. She wanted to marry into the Yuan family and live a better life.
"Gu Yu, sit here."
"good."
Hearing the familiar name, Chen Yuling looked over quickly.
It was really him. Although she had only spent a few days with him on the train two years ago, she had never forgotten this face. That was the first time she was frustrated by a man.
Gu Yu was very alert and noticed someone was staring at him. He glanced over with his sharp black eyes and sized up the other person.
Seeing that it was someone he didn't know, he continued to talk to Yu Mingli as if nothing had happened.
Chen Yuling's heart beat faster. The two of them just looked at each other. Did he recognize her?
Does he still remember her?
Yuan Weide also noticed the two men sitting not far away. One of them had a very strong aura, and the space in the state-owned restaurant was so small that it was hard not to notice him. ”
"Yu Mingli? Brother Yu?" He recognized that this was a member of the Yu family who lived in the same compound in Jingshi, and a friend of his eldest brother.
Yu Mingli looked at his face and thought for a long time before he remembered that he was sitting there without moving, smiling and greeting, "Weide, what a coincidence, I didn't expect to meet you here."
"Yes, what a coincidence, Brother Yu, are you here in Ding'an County for business?" Yuan Weide was a little excited to see an acquaintance in Beijing.
Yu Mingli thought about it for a while and felt that there was nothing to hide, so he said truthfully: "I was transferred to work here, and now I am the director of the county public security bureau."
Fearing that it would be bad to leave Gu Yu out, he introduced the two of them, "This is also someone from our compound, Gu Yu, who is now the county magistrate of our Ding'an County."
"County Magistrate Gu, this is Yuan Weide from the Yuan family."
"Hello, County Magistrate Gu," Yuan Weide hurried forward.
Gu Yu from the Gu family, everyone in the compound knew his name. No one expected that he would come here to be the county magistrate.
Gu Yu nodded politely without saying anything.
He has no interest in meeting irrelevant people.
Chen Yuling was so excited that she couldn't help but think that Gu Yu was so capable. She was right about him.
After a moment of hesitation, she still didn't want to give up this opportunity, so she stepped forward and said softly, "Um, Gu Yu, do you still remember me? I'm Chen Yuling. We met in the train compartment two years ago. There was another female comrade and a male comrade there at the time."
I was afraid that the man opposite me didn’t remember it, so I mentioned it more.
But she would not say the name Lin Xiuzhu.
When Gu Yu heard what she said, he reacted. That was the first time he met his young wife, so he remembered it very clearly. He knew that Yan Ming and another female comrade were in the car at that time.
But he had long forgotten the names and appearances of irrelevant people.
Now that it was brought up again, Gu Yu couldn't help but think of the scenes when he was getting along with Xiuzhu. He thought of the little girl's guard against him at that time, but now she lies in his arms every night and has long been dependent on him.
Gu Yu's eyebrows softened unconsciously, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly.
Chen Yuling's face lit up with joy. She didn't expect that he still remembered her.
…
When Xiuzhu entered the state-owned restaurant, she saw this scene: her husband, who usually obeyed her in everything, was smiling tenderly at another woman, and that woman was also looking at him shyly.
Dog man!
Her eyes were red, but she forced herself to hold them back. At this moment, she told herself to be strong and brave.
She wanted to go back and get a divorce, and make Gu Yu leave the house with nothing.
Gu Yu noticed the unfriendly gaze on him, turned around and looked over, it was his little wife. He thought, the two of them really have a tacit understanding, just when he was thinking about her, she appeared in front of him.
He quickly stood up, walked quickly to his wife, and said in a gentle voice: "Why did you come out? Let me warm your hand for you, it must be frozen!"
"Of course you don't want me to come out." Xiuzhu held back her tears and tried hard to control her emotions. She couldn't embarrass herself in front of so many people.
Gu Yu has always been sensitive to his wife's abnormality. He said softly, "What's wrong? I don't want you to come out. I'm just afraid that you will be cold."
Listening to his gentle voice and thinking of the scene she had just seen, Xiuzhu felt a strong pang in her heart. She could no longer control herself and the tears in her eyes overflowed one by one. She did not dare to cry out loud and just sobbed softly.
Gu Yu felt so distressed when he saw his little wife like this. She hadn't cried for a long time.
Without caring about anything else or whether there was anyone else around him, he hugged her in his arms and took her to a remote storage room nearby.
"My dear, what's wrong? There's no one here now, so you can tell me." He coaxed softly.
Knowing that his wife is very concerned about her reputation, she won't say anything when there are people around.
"Wow, you're having an affair with another woman, you lied to me, and you were so gentle to her." Xiuzhu dared to cry out loud only after she saw that there was really no one around, and she choked up as she accused the person in front of her.
Gu Yu frowned. When had he ever been gentle to other women?
How come he doesn't know?
