Chapter 224 Friends Visit
Li Xiangmei teased Sun ๋ while shouting to the outside:
"Zheng Weidang, don't you want to see Sun ๋? Come in and take a look!"
During this period, Zheng Weidang had been standing outside the house. He did not rashly follow Li Xiangmei in because he was afraid that it would be inconvenient for Gu Xiaojiao.
Now he heard Li Xiangmei calling him and hurriedly walked in from outside.
Zheng Yunsheng followed into the house.
The family gathered happily together, and Li Xiangmei couldn't help but say:
"It would be great if Shu Ning came over too!"
Zheng Shuning also wanted to come along, but because he was still in school, it was difficult for him to ask for leave, so he didn't come.
Li Xiangmei and Zheng Weidang were hugging their grandchildren in the house and did not leave.
The family gathered in the yard, enjoying the spring breeze and talking.
While they were chatting, a military vehicle stopped at the gate of the courtyard.
Two women and a man in military uniform got out of the car.
People entered the courtyard one after another.
Seeing the person coming, Zheng Yunsheng hurriedly stood up to greet him.
The leading girl walked up to Zheng Yunsheng and called out to him cheerfully, "Brother Zheng."
The man behind the girl also called Zheng Yunsheng "big brother" along with the girl.
These two people are Huo Yushi and Shen Guidong, who had just got married not long ago.
There was also the woman at the end. She smiled at Zheng Yunsheng with her lips bent. Seeing that Zheng Yunsheng wanted to talk to her, she quickly raised her finger and made a 'hush' gesture to Zheng Yunsheng.
Then the woman followed Huo Yushi into the room to look after Gu Xiaojiao.
Gu Xiaojiao was almost bored to death in the room. According to the rules of confinement, she had to stay in the room for a whole month.
I heard that during confinement, one must not be exposed to wind, nor take a bath or wash oneโs hair, otherwise one will easily get sick.
Fortunately, the weather is not hot now, so I can wipe it with hot wool instead of washing it, which is still acceptable.
The doors and windows of the house were tightly closed, making it airtight. There was a smell of milk in the air, which inevitably made people feel a little uncomfortable.
However, Gu Xiaojiao had no other options. Xie Jinxiang said that this is how women go through their confinement period, so she let Xie Jinxiang make arrangements so that she wouldn't have to worry.
Gu Xiaojiao also heard the voices in the yard. She heard someone pushing the door and knew it must be Huo Yushi coming in.
He quickly piled two pillows together, stood up and sat up half leaning on the pillows.
Huo Yushi pushed the door open and entered the room. She saw Gu Xiaojiao and kissed her tenderly, shouting:
"Sister Gu."
"Yushi, come here, happy wedding!" Gu Xiaojiao looked behind Huo Yushi while talking to her.
She discovered that there seemed to be someone following Huo Yushi.
After taking a closer look, Gu Xiaojiao was so happy that she almost sat up straight. She shouted with a tone that could not hide her joy:
"Xiao Wenjing."
Huo Yushi discovered that when Gu Xiaojiao saw her, she was far less surprised than when she saw Wen Jing, and she couldn't help but feel a little jealous:
"Oh, Sister Gu, you don't seem very happy to see me, but when you see Sister Wen Jing, your eyes light up."
"How could that be? Of course I'm just as happy. It's because I just heard you talking in the yard, but I didn't know Wen Jing was here too!"
Although she said so, Gu Xiaojiao knew in her heart that her relationship with Wen Jing was indeed closer than that with Huo Yushi.
After all, she and Wen Jing had been best friends since their previous life, but Huo Shiyu was just a girl she met by chance and rescued casually.
But this is also because she gets along well with Huo Yushi.
As long as they have compatible personalities and spend more time together, I believe she and Huo Yushi will also have a deep friendship.
After talking with Wen Jing, Gu Xiaojiao learned that Wen Jing did not take the college entrance examination when the educated youth returned to the city.
Instead, he was transferred to the field area by Huo Yuhuai.
In the past few years, Wen Jing has been receiving secret training in the field area and performing special tasks, so she has lost contact with Gu Xiaojiao.
Now Wen Jing and Shen Guidong are both in the field area, and both of them have reached the cadre level.
After her status was raised and her identity changed, Wen Jing had the opportunity to reconnect with the outside world. This time, until Shen Guidong and Huo Yushi came to Yanjing, she came with them to look after Gu Xiaojiao.
Gu Xiaojiao didn't expect that Wen Jing's life trajectory would change so much. In her previous life, she went to college and returned to her hometown to become a female entrepreneur.
Unexpectedly, I took a completely different path in this life. Because of my participation in rescuing Shen Guidong, I was promoted by Huo Huahuai.
Now he holds an important position in the army and is doing very well.
But Gu Xiaojiao didn't know whether Wen Jing finally got rid of that scumbag. When she thought of it, she asked:
"Xiao Wenjing, are you single or married now? Have you found a partner?"
"I haven't found one yet. Commander Huo has been arranging for me to attend special training and carry out missions in the past few years, so I haven't been able to take care of marriage."
Huo Yushi on the side took over the conversation: "Sister Wen Jing has high standards. My dad introduced many people to her, but she didn't like any of them."
"No way, that's because they look down on me and think I'm not feminine enough." Wen Jing said this, brushing her hair together a little embarrassedly.
When Wen Jing came in, Gu Xiaojiao noticed that Wen Jing now did look different from before.
She used to have a bob with hanging ears, but now she has cut it all short, a standard hairstyle for young women.
She is full of masculinity, but still very good-looking. She shouldn't be considered unfeminine by others. She probably doesn't want to be too feminine.
Gu Xiaojiao thought for a while and said:
"It's okay. Marriage is all about fate. If you haven't met the right one, don't force it."
The two of them continued chatting about other things.
During this period, the baby woke up once, and Wen Jing and Huo Yushi both picked up the baby and teased him for a while.
It's strange to say that this child is really good. On the day he was born, he cried when Zheng Yunsheng said he was ugly, and he even knew to scratch the birthmark on his arm with his hands.
At that time, Gu Xiaojiao and Zheng Yunsheng were almost reborn as children with memories, or for some other reason!
Since the birthmark was discovered, the baby has behaved no differently from other children.
When they were almost done chatting, Li Xiangmei came over and knocked on the door. She looked at Huo Yushi and Wen Jing at the door and shouted:
"You must be hungry, come and eat quickly."
Although Li Xiangmei also came to Yanjing today, she did not treat herself as a guest at all when she arrived at Xie Jinxiang's house. She went to the kitchen with Xie Jinxiang to cook and pick vegetables, and she was never idle for a moment.
When the two people in the room saw Li Xiangmei coming, they followed her to the courtyard to eat.
Gu Xiaojiao's meals were prepared separately, and the taste had to be light.
When the people outside started to eat, Xie Jinxiang brought the crucian carp soup and rice that she had cooked for Gu Xiaojiao into her room.
After finishing the meal, Huo Yushi and Shen Guidong said hello to Gu Xiaojiao and drove away.
The two of them came this time, not only to take care of Xiaojiao, but also to learn from the West and spend a fashionable honeymoon. It was naturally inconvenient to live in someone else's house.
Wen Jing was alone and stayed at Gu Xiaojiao's house.
