Chapter 196 Differential Treatment (Edited)

After returning home, Yu Wanqing saw that Huo Lanci looked a little serious. She immediately remembered that Uncle Fu and the others had left. Now there was only Old Kang left here. Would A Ci and the others also leave?

She walked over to the recliner next to Huo Lanci and sat down, whispering, "When are you leaving?"

Jing'er has not yet gotten over the pain of Uncle Fu and the others leaving, and now he has to face the departure of his partner again.

Yu Wanqing was feeling a little depressed.

Huo Lanci reached out and held her hand, smiling helplessly: "I have received a notice that you must return to the barracks in ten days."

"I don't want to be separated from you." He looked at Yu Wanqing: "But I have responsibilities and I have to leave."

"Wanqing, this is one of the reasons why I hope to marry you as soon as possible. Once we are married, we won't have to be so far apart." Once they are married, she will follow the army, and even if he is on a mission, he will be able to see her first when he returns to the family compound.

Yu Wanqing shook his hand back and said, "Go back and apply for a family home. We will get married next year and I will join the army then."

Huo Lanci stood up suddenly, his eyes sparkling, staring at her in disbelief: "Are you serious? You're not lying to me about getting married next year?"

"Do I look like someone who would joke about marriage?" Yu Wanqing rolled her eyes in annoyance and wanted to kick him.

This guy actually dared to doubt himself like this: "How about, slow down for a while?"

"No, no, no, let's get married next year, early next year." Huo Lanci slammed the table and decided that he must marry her home early next year and then take her to the military camp.

"Is Xue Kun going to rejoin the team too?" There are only four people left in Beishan now, Old Kang and Xue Kun, and two others who had ulterior motives but were beaten up in the end and can only take care of themselves now.

Huo Lanci nodded: "The issue regarding Elder Kang will surely be resolved before we leave."

"Even if not, it will be safe for Elder Kang to stay in the Five-Star Brigade."

All they wanted was the research data in the hands of Fu Henian and others. As long as they left, Mr. Kang's safety would not be threatened.

When Huo Lanci went to the countryside, it was arranged by his leader. Now that he is leaving, it was also his superior who notified him.

The notice was delivered to Secretary Zhou the day before he left for the northwest. After reading it, he was dumbfounded: "So, Huo Zhiqing is leaving?"

Upon hearing this, the team leader and Accountant Ye quickly stood up, rushed to Secretary Zhou, snatched the notice away, and took a look. They were also dumbfounded.

Accountant Ye said, "Why is it so sudden?"

The captain sighed and said, "Huo Zhiqing's family has already found a job for him. It is normal for him to leave the Five Star Brigade and return to Beijing."

"We really think that we are so popular here that we want to send our children out." The world outside is too big and broad. It is a good thing for children to go out and gain more knowledge.

What's more, Huo Zhiqing grew up in the imperial city, and the fact that he had been in the Five-Star Brigade for two years was already a fate between them.

Secretary Zhou nodded: "I will write him a letter of introduction now."

No matter which educated youth wanted to leave, they would never use any means to hinder the child's future.

On the day the notice came down, the people at the educated youth point also knew that Huo Lanci was leaving. Guo Hongying looked at Zhang Hongqi with a worried look on her face: "If Huo Zhiqing leaves the Five-Star Brigade, what will happen to Wanqing?"

"Could it be that he only wants to be with Wan Qing and has never thought about marrying her?" Thinking of this, Guo Hongying's face changed instantly: "No, I want to go and see."

After saying this, she quickly ran to Yu Wanqing's house.

Guo Hongying found that Lu Guohua and others were also here. She didn't care and stared at Huo Lanci and asked, "You want to go back to Beijing, what about Wanqing?"

Hearing this, everyone looked at Guo Hongying, while Lu Guohua and others laughed secretly. It was a rare day of rest, and they could still see such a good show when they returned to the educated youth site.

He whispered to Ji Qing, "I won."

He just told everyone that Guo Hongying would definitely come to demand accountability once she got the news.

As soon as he finished speaking, Guo Hongying appeared. She is really a good and obedient comrade.

Ji Qing rolled his eyes at Lu Guohua and spoke as if they couldn't guess.

It's easy to guess that Guo Hongying would come to kill him and bring charges against him.

Zhang Hongqi followed closely in. Yu Wanqing looked at the people in the room and suddenly felt a headache.

Huo Lanci quickly said, "Wanqing and I plan to get married next year."

"Even if I return to the city, I have no intention of giving up my wife."

After hearing this, Guo Hongying whispered, "Are you sure you won't look for a girl from Beijing after you return to the city?"

It's not like this has never happened before.

"I don't want anyone else except Yu Wanqing." Huo Lanci looked at Yu Wanqing: "So you don't have to worry that I will let you down. Time can prove everything."

He will silence all questioning voices with facts.

"We can all testify for Wanqing. If you let Wanqing down in the future, we will return to Beijing to settle the score with you. No matter what job your parents arrange for you, we can find a way to destroy your job." Zhang Hongqi reminded lightly.

"We may not have much power, but we have many people."

Gao Qingmei nodded: "Yes, we have a lot of people. As long as you do something bad, we can't do anything to you. We also have means and methods to make your life difficult."

She and Zhou Chengye are in a relationship, and Wan Qing is her future sister-in-law and also her relative, so she must protect her.

Everyone expressed that they would stand on Yu Wanqing's side. Seeing this, Huo Lanci sighed and said, "It seems that we are friends with you all."

“Why do you treat them differently?”

In fact, Huo Lanci was very happy in his heart. Everyone cared about Wan Qing, which proved that her efforts were not wrong.

Ji Qing said: "You are indeed our friend, but in this matter, we will be biased towards Yu Zhiqing."

In emotional matters, if the woman is not at fault but is abandoned in the end, she is the only one who suffers.

As friends, they must stand on Yu Zhiqing's side.

Lu Guohua and others nodded.

"Brother Huo, it's not that we don't care about you, but we think Sister Yu needs our protection more." Luo Hui said with a smile: "You are a grown man, even if you get bumped, you won't get hurt, so don't be so fragile."

Yu Wanqing couldn't help laughing when she heard this. She looked at Huo Lanci and said, "See, I have a lot of relatives from my mother's family."

Huo Lanci nodded: "Yes, yes, you have so many relatives from your mother's family. Even if I were given two more courages, I would not dare to let you down."

Everyone could tell that Huo Lanci was joking, and for a moment, the joyful atmosphere in the room washed away the sadness of the impending departure.

Guo Hongying approached Yu Wanqing and whispered, "When do you plan to get married next year?"

Next May, she will go to the countryside for two years. Grandpa said that as long as she stays there for two years, she can go home to visit her relatives.

Yu Wanqing shook her head: "I'm not sure yet. I will tell you when the time comes."

Only then did Guo Hongying nodded with satisfaction.

When we got back to the educated youth center, Lu Guohua suddenly said, "Why don't we invite Ah Ci to have a meal and have a good time together before he leaves?"

Once separated, it may be difficult to reunite.

Everyone agreed.

"Qingmei can cook a lot of dishes. I'll ask her to come over and discuss what dishes to cook. The male educated youth can go to the commune to buy vegetables then." After Wang Yuping finished speaking, she left the educated youth center and went to the next yard to call Gao Qingmei.

Yu Wanqing and Huo Lanci were unaware that the educated youth were secretly trying to bribe him.

After everything was settled, Yu Wanqing proposed to treat everyone to a meal. Unexpectedly, the educated youth had already prepared everything. Guo Hongying was responsible for bringing Yu Wanqing to the educated youth site, and Chuan Ming was responsible for tricking Huo Lanci over.

When the two saw the dishes on the two round tables in the lobby of the Youth Camp, they were a little surprised: "How could you have hidden so many delicacies from us?"

Chicken, duck, some bacon, vegetables, big steamed buns, a table full of delicious food.

Chu Ming smiled and said, "We thought about preparing a meal for Ah Ci and we can have a good time together. We don't know when we will get together next time."

At the end, everyone looked a little lost.

Just think about it, life is long, no one can always accompany each other, so separation is a matter of sooner or later.

However, Aci's departure came early.

During the banquet, Huo Lanci drank a lot of wine, and when he returned, he was really drunk.

The handsome face was red at this moment, looking a bit tempting. Yu Wanqing suppressed the urge to bite it.

Huo Lanci whispered: "I am honored to be here and meet so many friends."

The people at the educated youth site are really nice.

Yu Wanqing hummed: "Me too, luckily I came here and got to know them and you."

Huo Lanci chuckled and reached out his hand to hold her.

In the next two days, Huo Lanci visited the captain and accountant Ye, who had helped him a lot in the past two years. Without their help and cover-up, many things would not have been carried out so smoothly.

In the dead of night, deep in the mountains and forests:

Yu Wanqing and Huo Lanci sat on the top of a mountain. She rested her head on his shoulder, looking at the sky full of stars. She couldn't help but smile and asked, "You brought me to the top of the mountain just to look at the stars?"

"Yes, this is the best place to watch the stars. When I first arrived at the Five Star Brigade, I often climbed here at night." They left when it was almost dawn.

Looking at the starry sky, it seems that all the troubles in my heart will be driven away. At least at that moment, my heart is really peaceful.

This is also the reason why I thought Wan Qing’s eyes were beautiful, like stars when I first met her.

Because, the night before she came, he sat here looking at the stars and the moon, and the stars were particularly bright that night.

"I am about to leave. Perhaps, I will never have the chance to come here to look at the stars again in my life, so I want to bring you here to see the night sky that I once saw."

Yu Wanqing hugged Huo Lanci's arm and smiled happily: "I didn't expect you to have a romantic heart."

"Fortunately, I have some ability, otherwise who can follow you to climb so high." This mountain is located in Beishan, and it is also the highest peak in the area.

The road is not easy to walk on.

Therefore, people with poor physical strength, poor skills, and slow reaction dare not come here.

Huo Lanci said: "There are also very high mountains over there. The night sky there is also very beautiful. When you go with the army in the future, I will take you into the mountains to see the stars and the moon."

After listening to Huo Lanci's words, Yu Wanqing instantly remembered the sentence: Look at the stars, look at the moon, and then talk about poetry and songs and the philosophy of life.

I wanted to shut the man up with this sentence, but he immediately followed it up with, "Catch rabbits and hunt pheasants. If you come across wild boars, that can be added to the dishes."

In an instant, I returned from the poetic life to reality.

Yu Wanqing couldn't help but look at the man with a smile on his face: "Aren't you afraid that others will know that your wife is a strong woman?"

Huo Lanci shook his head: "Don't worry, they won't be able to find someone as capable and powerful as you even if they want to."

"Some people are envious, and naturally some are jealous. I never care about what others think of me."

He patted Yu Wanqing's delicate face and said jokingly, "I grew up in a storm of rumors since I was a child."

"Only the words of the people I care about can hurt me. The irrelevant words from others are just garbage to me."

If someone said something bad about Wan Qing, he would get very angry, and once he got angry, he would pick on their men or sons to fight back.

It's even possible that he might tear the gossiper apart with his own hands.

In short, no one can let his daughter-in-law suffer any injustice.

The two stayed on the top of the mountain for a while and caught two pheasants on their way down the mountain.

After returning home, Huo Lanci took the pheasant home, killed it, cleaned it, and then sent it to Yu Wanqing's house.

Aci was leaving today, so Yu Wanqing took a leave of absence from work and planned to send him to the commune, where he would meet up with his comrades.

"We're having chicken noodle soup this morning," Huo Lanci said as he rolled up his sleeves and prepared to knead the dough.

Yu Wanqing leaned against the door of the room, watching him busying around alone, a hint of reluctance flashing across her eyes.

She said, "Huo Lanci, I want to eat the halved pig's feet you made."

Huo Lanci paused for a moment while kneading the dough when he heard this, then nodded: "Okay, I'll go to the commune and buy some pig's feet and cook them for you later."

She was his young wife, tricked into marrying him by using a pig's trotter's leg. He would find a way to satisfy her whatever she wanted.

Yu Wanqing smiled when she heard this. Every word and every matter had a response, and she was talking about Huo Lanci.

Yu Wanqing stepped forward to help: "Half a year has passed quickly."

Huo Lanci understood what she meant. Half a year later, they could get their marriage certificate and stay together forever.

He hummed and said, "You should pay more attention to yourself and don't try to be too arrogant."

"Don't worry, I understand. I won't do anything that I can't do." Yu Wanqing agreed repeatedly.

We can't let him feel uneasy even when he returns to the barracks.

After eating two bowls of noodles, Huo Lanci hurriedly rode his bike to the commune to buy pig's feet.

At this time, genius began to shine.

Yu Wanqing watched his back disappear from her sight before she closed the door and entered the space.

She went to the pharmacy to prepare some hemostatic drugs and some antidote pills for Huo Lanci to carry with him.

With missions like theirs that are often carried out, often on the most dangerous missions, casualties are inevitable. The hemostatic drugs available on the market are too slow to stop bleeding, and in the wild, excessive blood loss without medical treatment may result in death.
