It's not that she's crazy; she thought the other woman was a first-time offender, but it turns out the old woman is likely a repeat offender, and a repeat offender who has harmed others before. And yet she still doesn't behave herself? It's truly...
"Auntie, don't be angry. We were just guessing."
Aunt Xiao waved her hand, "I think it's very likely. This old hag isn't afraid of being punished for doing too many bad things."
Those were two lives. How could she do such a thing? It's so pitiful for that child to have such a foolish grandmother.
Liu Li agreed with this statement, "I just heard that Aunt Tian said the same thing to other people, but some people didn't listen to her instigation and nothing really happened. Some people made a lot of trouble because of her family. After this incident, everyone felt that they were used as pawns by her, so they went to her daughter-in-law and said a good word to her."
Liu Li couldn't help but laugh when she heard this. "Her daughter-in-law's family is well-off, so she immediately got into a fight with her. After the fight, she packed her things, took the children, and went back to her parents' home. Now, her son has taken leave to go after his wife after hearing about this."
Xiao Ma: "Serves her right! If I had known she had done those other despicable things, I would have given her a good dressing down just now."
“An’an, you should stay away from that old hag in the future. She’s a very wicked person and might try to trip you up behind your back.”
Gu An'an nodded confidently, "Mom, don't you trust me?"
Remembering Gu An'an's past "great achievements," Xiao's mother couldn't help but laugh out loud. "Mom believes in you. If she dares to do anything bad again, she'll definitely be in big trouble."
Xiao's mother stayed in the family compound for two more days until Xiao Yuheng was discharged from the hospital, at which point she packed her bags and went home.
She couldn't not go back. There was a ton of work waiting for her at the factory, and she also had to take care of her father and two elderly relatives at home. She was really worried that if she didn't go back, those three wouldn't know how they would take care of her.
"Alright, alright, you two can go back now!"
"Mom, if someone tries to chat you up on the street, don't pay any attention to them."
Seeing her son giving her a long, nagging lecture, Xiao's mother was secretly pleased but outwardly disdainful, "I know, how many times have you said that? I'm not a child, I'm not going to lose myself."
Xiao Yuheng felt helpless, but the train was really chaotic these days, so it was always good to be more vigilant.
"Mom, call us when you get home."
"Okay, take good care of yourself here. If you're not happy here, come home, understand?"
Xiao Yuheng didn't even want to complain anymore. He had never seen a mother who loved to compete with her son for his wife so much. He immediately took Gu An'an's hand and said to her mother, "Mom, the car is about to leave, so we'll go first."
Turning to Gu An'an, he said, "Since we're already in the city, why don't we go for a walk around?"
Since he can't train or go on missions right now, who else would he spend his vacation with but his wife?
Gu An'an looked at his injury and said, "Let's walk around for a while. If you get tired, just tell me."
Watching the beautiful couple walk away hand in hand, Xiao's mother was extremely satisfied, "That rascal."
As soon as Gu An'an entered the supply and marketing cooperative, she heard a girl call her name.
"Liu Xiaoqing".
Liu Xiaoqing was surprised that the other person still remembered her name, and immediately nodded and said, "It's me, it's me."
"Didn't you say you worked in the logistics department?"
Liu Xiaoqing pouted and said, "Don't even mention it. One of them went to give birth, and the other is sick. There's no one available, so they asked me to fill in."
Working in logistics is so much better. There's only so much work to do each day, and you can relax and enjoy yourself after you're done. Unlike now, my throat is practically burning from shouting.
As she spoke, her hands didn't stop; she accurately quoted prices, collected money, and took the goods. She was clearly a capable girl, and thankfully, she had gotten rid of that kind of man.
What do you want to buy?
Gu An'an glanced at the items in the display case, told Liu Xiaoqing what she was missing, and Liu Xiaoqing quickly got the items for her. She then whispered over and asked, "Apples and oranges will be arriving later, do you want some?"
Although Gu An'an had everything in her space, she could only eat it herself. With Xiao Yuheng around, she didn't dare to take anything out, which was somewhat inconvenient.
Now that she had the chance to buy seasonal fruit, Gu An'an naturally wanted it.
"I knew you weren't short of money. We also have seafood from the south. If you want it, just wait a bit; it should arrive in about half an hour."
When Gu An'an heard that there was also seafood, her smile became even more genuine, and she felt even more strongly that it was indeed a good thing to know people from the supply and marketing cooperative in this day and age.
"Okay, then we'll wait over there."
Although fruits and seafood are not things that ordinary people can afford, there are plenty of wealthy people in every place. These scarce items are hard to come by without connections, and Gu An'an is willing to wait.
"OK."
Sure enough, half an hour later, Liu Xiaoqing said a few words to the person next to her and came out from behind the counter. "Come on, I'll take you to the back to buy."
As she spoke, her gaze lingered on Xiao Yuheng's face for two seconds. "Comrade Gu, is this your man?"
Gu An'an nodded, "This is my husband, Xiao Yuheng."
Xiao Yuheng nodded to Liu Xiaoqing, but there was no extra enthusiasm in his expression.
Is your man in the military?
Gu An'an wasn't surprised that she could tell; the main problem was that Xiao Yuheng's military bearing was so strong that it would be strange if she couldn't tell.
"Yes, what's wrong?"
The usually outgoing Liu Xiaoqing suddenly became a little shy. "You saw what happened last time. Later, I took my parents and my brother and sister-in-law to his factory and made a scene, ruining his job. As a result, that guy got desperate and ruined my reputation, saying that I would never be able to get married and would only be an old nun. That made me so angry."
"I want to slap him in the face, but I don't really have anyone suitable around me. I just wanted to ask if there's anyone suitable for me in the military..."
After all, she was a young woman, and even the usually carefree Liu Xiaoqing blushed.
Gu An'an looked at Xiao Yuheng, who didn't mind playing matchmaker. After all, their unit had no shortage of bachelors, so if it worked out, it would be a good thing.
"What kind of person are you looking for? Position, appearance, and so on."
Liu Xiaoqing was desperate and grasped at straws. Unexpectedly, the other party did not refuse and immediately said, "There are no special requirements for the position, just a good person with a sense of responsibility, preferably not living too far away, a bit taller than me, and of average appearance."
There are requirements, but they are not high.
"Okay, I'll go back and take a look."
Xiao Yuheng already had a few candidates in mind. After all, it was his duty to care about his brothers' marriages, but he still needed to go back and ask them if they were suitable.
Liu Xiaoqing was surprised by how successful things were, and she couldn't stop smiling.
"Thank you, sister. Thank you, brother-in-law."
Wow, just a moment ago it was Comrade Gu, and now it's Sister and Brother-in-law. Gu An'an can only say that this girl can really change her face.
But she doesn't dislike it.
Following Liu Xiaoqing to the backyard of the supply and marketing cooperative, they found several people unloading goods.
"Brother, my friend wants to buy something, let her pick some out first."
