Chapter 31 You are looking down on me
Youth Points:
Everyone was sitting together for dinner, and Zhang Hongqi suddenly said, "Yu Zhiqing and Huo Zhiqing are dating."
Wang Yuping was extremely surprised: "Really? I thought it was just the aunties talking nonsense."
"It's not nonsense. We just went to ask." Guo Hongying didn't know why Hongqi suddenly said this. Seeing that Hongqi was not hiding it, she also told the story: "We just went to Yu Zhiqing's house and saw Huo Zhiqing helping to cook."
"Huo Zhiqing is really good to Yu Zhiqing." Guo Hongying looked excited when talking about the two of them.
She didn't know what she was so excited about, but seeing two such good-looking people together, she could look forward to how beautiful their future children would be.
When they first met on the train, she was jealous of Yu Wanqing's beauty, but now she feels that someone like Yu Wanqing deserves to be beautiful.
Lu Guohua smiled when he heard this: "A talented man and a beautiful woman."
Everyone agreed.
"I didn't expect Yu Zhiqing to find a partner so quickly. I, an old man who has been working in the countryside for a year, am still alone. I am such a failure." Lu Guohua couldn't help but tease himself.
His eyes fell on Zhang Hongqi, but they shifted away in an instant.
Chu Ming, who had been silent, noticed Lu Guohua's look and smiled: Big brother, you seem to want to find a partner.
Gu Xiaoru sat aside eating, her expression gloomy, and she looked out of place in this youth training center full of laughter.
When she heard that Yu Wanqing and Huo Lanci were really dating, she was so angry that she almost broke the chopsticks: Damn Yu Wanqing, how can you be so lucky to get the favor of Huo Lanci.
What qualifications do you have to date Huo Lanci? You are such a scumbag and a fox, and you are the best at seducing men.
Huo Lanci is a blind man, yet he actually fell in love with someone like Yu Wanqing.
She kept slandering the two men in her mind, and as a result, she almost dug out her toes while digging the ground in the afternoon.
In a rage, she threw the hoe on the ground and felt so wronged that she was about to cry: I am their child, so why don’t my parents like me?
Although they were all female educated youth, Chu Ming was only willing to talk to them.
They are both good-looking, so why does Huo Lanci only like Yu Wanqing?
She felt that her life was bitter, even bitterer than Coptis chinensis.
Niu Erzhuang had been paying attention to Gu Xiaoru. Seeing her squatting on the ground crying, he hurried over and asked, "Gu Zhiqing, why are you crying? Who bullied you?"
Gu Xiaoru looked at Niu Erzhuang with tears in her eyes: "No, no one bullied me, really, Yu Zhiqing didn't bully me."
Niu Erzhuang suddenly became angry: "It's Yu Zhiqing again."
"Don't be afraid, I will help you." Niu Erzhuang looked around and found that no one was paying attention to this place. He held Gu Xiaoru's hand and said, "Don't panic, just do it slowly. I will help you with the rest of the work and will not let Ye Shulan deduct your work points."
Gu Xiaoru wanted to pull her hand back, but when she heard him say he would help her, she stopped immediately: "Really?"
"No, the captain will scold me if he finds out." Gu Xiaoru shook her head quickly: "I can't let you get involved."
Niu Erzhuang said: "I did it secretly."
"Don't worry, no one will find out. Really, I promise that no one will find out about this and it won't have any impact on your reputation." Niu Erzhuang likes Gu Xiaoru and also hopes that Gu Xiaoru likes him.
His family is not as good as those educated youth, but he is the most capable among his brothers, and he will definitely let Gu, the educated youth, live a good life.
Gu Xiaoru listened to Niu Erzhuang's repeated assurances and then nodded: "Okay."
In the next few days, Niu Erzhuang went to help Gu Xiaoru with work after lunch. Because of the helper, Gu Xiaoru no longer had to work so hard.
If you can just let someone hold your hand to make your life a little easier, why not do it?
Shangyang City:
Li Xiulan was silent for a long time after reading her daughter's letter: "Old Yu, our daughter is so thoughtful."
“Who would be willing to go to the countryside as an educated youth when they can stay in the city? Life in the countryside must be hard, but she only reports good news and not worries.” Whenever Li Xiulan thought of her precious daughter suffering in the countryside, she felt sad and powerless.
Upon hearing this, Yu's father patted his wife on the shoulder and said, "Our daughter has always been sensible."
"If you're really worried, let Guangji go and take a look."
Wei Guangji, director of the Nanfu County Armed Forces Department, was once the company commander of the regiment where Yu's father served. The two had a life-and-death friendship. Although they had not been in contact for many years, he believed that this life-and-death friendship would not change even in ten or twenty years.
What's more, it's just to let Wei Guangji understand his daughter's current situation.
Li Xiulan hesitated: "Will it be too much trouble for Lao Wei? You haven't been in touch for many years. What will he think if you suddenly ask someone to check on your daughter?"
"Don't worry, it won't happen."
When he returned to the office the next day, he called Wei Guangji and told him what had happened.
When Wei Guangji learned that the old head of the group's daughter was working in the countryside in Nanfu County, he shouted at the person on the other end of the phone: "Old head of the group, you are so mean. You didn't tell me that your niece was working in the countryside here."
"Are you looking down on me?"
Upon hearing this, Yu's father hurried to explain. He briefly told Wei Guangji what had happened at home: "It was really too sudden. Your sister-in-law and I have not yet recovered from it."
"I have already told Xiaowu your address and phone number. I asked her to come to you if she has any questions."
Wei Guangji smiled when he heard this. He was willing to tell his niece his contact information, which proved that the old leader did not treat him as an outsider.
Wei Guangji smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'll go to the Five Star Brigade to take a look."
"I haven't seen my niece for ten years. I don't know what she looks like now."
Wei Guangji left the Beijing Military Region in 1958 and went to Shangyang City to visit his old regiment commander. This was the first time he met Yu Wanqing. In his opinion, Yu Wanqing was very beautiful, cheerful and lovable. The girl even shouted that if she was given another twelve years, she could defeat Wei Guangji, a veteran from the battlefield.
Ten years passed in a flash. Unexpectedly, the girl had graduated from high school and came to Nanfu County to work in the countryside.
Thinking of the lofty ambitions of the little girl back then, he couldn't help but laugh.
Even after ten years, Wei Guangji is still impressed by her.
Ever since his wife died in childbirth, Wei Guangji hadn't been able to find a reason to take a vacation. Today, he suddenly wanted to take a vacation. There wasn't much to do recently, so he handed over the work and submitted his vacation application.
Then he rode away on his bike.
Everything happened too suddenly, leaving a group of confused colleagues.
Wei Guangji first went to the county department store and bought a lot of things before heading to the Five-Star Brigade.
It was already past four in the afternoon when he arrived at the Five-Star Brigade. He asked people where Yu Wanqing was.
Auntie Daniu looked at the man in front of her who was wearing a Zhongshan suit and riding a bicycle. He looked dignified and respectable. "Yu Zhiqing is digging at the foot of the mountain. Just keep walking along this road. When you get to the end, you will see a group of people. The best-looking one is Yu Zhiqing."
Wei Guangji thanked him and rode away.
Auntie Daniu saw a big cloth bag tied to the back of his bicycle, and it was obvious that it was a good thing.
She said to the worker next door, "I don't know who this person is. Why is he looking for Yu Zhiqing?"
