"..."
The couple had barely exchanged a few words with Li Zaiyang when Zhao Xiujuan and her husband, Lao Wang, arrived carrying food they had bought from the state-run hotel.
Best friends meet again.
Yu Mingxiang was six months pregnant, and Zhao Xiujuan's husband was also in good health; the couple lived in harmony.
The two hugged each other and looked at each other again and again.
His eyes were red.
Finally, Zhao Xiujuan lightly punched Yu Mingxiang's shoulder, "You bad woman, you didn't even tell me about such a big thing as your marriage!"
She smiled and playfully scolded, "Although my work at the educated youth settlement is very busy, at least you told me, so I can at least send you some melon seeds and candy to cheer you up!"
Upon hearing this, Yu Mingxiang was speechless.
I was even more moved.
When she went to the countryside, apart from finding goods from Gu Guanhai's village, most of her other things were provided by Brother Du and his wife, as well as her fellow apprentice.
And Zhao Xiujuan...
Not only did they manage to get her sent to the countryside where her daughter lived, but during the year and a half she was there, they sent her packages every year, every holiday.
Yu Mingxiang: ...
Looking at the people from past and present lives who had stood by him and helped him through thick and thin, his eyes couldn't help but redden again and again.
Seeing this, Gu Guanhai felt extremely distressed.
But he knew that his wife was happy.
At the dinner table, Du Changzheng and Li Zaiyang bombarded Gu Guanhai with questions, acting like family members testing him. After learning that Yu Mingxiang was pregnant and that Gu Guanhai had abandoned his work to return to Northeast China to be with her, the two...
"Good! That's how a good man should be!"
"Exactly! You can earn more money, find another job, but you can only have one wife!"
"Brother Gu, you're so lucky! My sister is a wonderful woman!"
Gu Guanhai agreed wholeheartedly upon hearing this.
For a time, toasts were exchanged and guests and hosts enjoyed themselves immensely.
That night.
Yu Mingxiang and Gu Guanhai stayed at Du Changzheng's house.
The next day.
Du Changzheng originally wanted to take leave to stay home with Yu Mingxiang and her husband, but after the couple refused, he went to work at the machinery factory.
After he left, Yu Mingxiang learned from Zheng Qiurong that the machinery factory had been doing poorly recently and didn't have many orders.
Zheng Qiurong's original intention was to tell Yu Mingxiang that it was fine for her husband to take leave and stay home with her, but upon hearing this, Yu Mingxiang turned and glanced at Gu Guanhai.
Their eyes met.
A knowing smile flashed in the eyes of the couple.
The downturn in the machinery factory is only temporary.
Soon, with the advancement of scientific research projects at the base, their Xia Kingdom will usher in a leapfrog development in science and technology.
By then, the machinery factory will probably be too busy to keep up with the demand.
"It will be alright!"
Yu Mingxiang patted Zheng Qiurong's hand and comforted her, "It will be alright soon! Don't worry, sister-in-law!"
Zheng Qiurong nodded with a smile.
"I know! I'm not worried!"
She said, "A woman marries a man for food and clothing. Don't worry, your Brother Du can definitely support me!"
Upon hearing this, Yu Mingxiang exclaimed, "Haha!"
I couldn't help but chuckle.
The couple chatted and laughed with Zheng Qiurong for a while, then made an excuse to leave and went to the department store.
They were in a rush to get home last night, and their meeting with Brother Du and his family was also rushed. They went to their house empty-handed, which wouldn't do.
The two bought a lot of things at the department store, and when they came out, a green train was already waiting at the entrance.
After leaving the department store, they went to the supply and marketing cooperative.
They went shopping together, filling the car with three gifts, before returning to Du Changzheng's home.
Zheng Qiurong: "!!!"
He stared wide-eyed when he saw the huge pile of gifts Gu Guanhai had brought.
I caught the couple and gave them a good lecture.
