"What's going on?" When Su's mother was speaking, Su's father had been sitting on the sofa next to her without moving. He waited until his daughter returned to the room before asking.
"No, Jiang Nan has really lost face today and is now blaming me for not publishing a statement about the cancellation of the engagement."
"Their family is planning to rescue the girl. This is not like their style." Father Su was very surprised. The Gu family is powerful and influential. They should not fall in love with the daughter of a nanny.
"Their family said they would let you get promoted to a higher level. They probably wanted it as compensation to shut us up. In fact, we also made a profit. People outside may feel sorry for us, but we know in our hearts that no matter then or now, we are the beneficiaries." Sun Lan looked at the closed door of her daughter's room, sat closer to Su's father, and whispered.
"real?"
"This is also false, but it is not stated explicitly."
"But it's a pity. If our daughter could marry into the Gu family, it wouldn't be a problem for her to get promoted several levels." Father Su said with regret.
"Needless to say? The Gu family already knows that we orchestrated Mr. Gu's marriage. It's good enough that we haven't fallen out. Don't be so ungrateful. If they knew why we refused to send the telegram to cancel the engagement, I think Sun Nan would tear us apart."
Su Yitang didn't continue listening. A trace of hatred flashed in her eyes. These were the parents who always said they loved her, but once their own interests were involved, they could easily abandon her.
Gu Huaijin has already gone to the division commander's office to receive his transfer certificate.
"Has the family agreed?" Gu Huaijin's old leader Zhong Xiang looked at the promising young man whom he had cultivated for so many years, and was somewhat reluctant to see him leave.
"We've already discussed it. I've also filed a marriage report. We'll get married after it's approved." Gu Huaijin said calmly without changing his expression.
"Okay, live a good life after you get married. You can't focus on work like you do now. Don't forget to come back often when you go to the Northwest. Your sister went to Xinjiang for several years and didn't say she was coming back. Your father was worried all the time and missed his daughter. You can't learn from her." Zhong Xiang thought it was not easy. Although he envied the two children of the Gu family for their outstanding abilities, only they knew the hardships involved.
Looking at the person sitting in front of him, he hesitated for a moment before opening his mouth to ask, "I heard that you went to see a psychiatrist some time ago. It's time to let go of what happened in the past."
Gu Huaijin didn't say a word, but his body became visibly stiff.
Zhong Xiang sighed and stopped trying to comfort her. Turning back to work, he said, "Based on your situation, we've discussed it and decided to transfer you to the position of Political Commissar."
When Gu Huaijin heard this decision, his eyes darkened and his hands on his legs tightened. He did not object, and he had no right to object.
"Sister Song, Xiaojin just came back and said he's being transferred to the northwest. The transfer order has already come down. I want to hold the wedding before he leaves. We're a bit rushed on time, but don't worry, our family will prepare everything necessary and will not treat Zhizhi unfairly." Jiang Nan pulled Song Mei, who was washing dishes, to sit on the sofa and said embarrassedly.
Although Song Mei was somewhat unhappy about Gu Huaijin's sudden departure for the Northwest, she was happy that her daughter and he were getting married, not showing any displeasure. After a moment's hesitation, she said, "This is indeed a bit hasty. When are you leaving?"
"He just came back and told me that you'll be leaving in a week. This kid is really not very reliable this time." Jiang Nan felt guilty as he spoke. Marriage is a major event in life. It's not a good look to have to prepare in such a hurry. It seems that you don't value the other party. However, there is indeed a reason for this, and he scolded his son in his heart.
"A week? Then we have to prepare quickly."
"Yes, that's the truth. When Lao Gu comes back tonight, I'll tell him about it. Let's get ready quickly."
The marriage report was approved the next day, which was considered an expedited approval given by the army to Gu Huaijin.
Song Zhi was arranged by his elders to go shopping for wedding supplies with Gu Huaijin last night.
She got up early this morning and planned to change clothes and leave after breakfast. She looked at the original owner's wardrobe. Most of the clothes were cute and the material felt like chemical fiber, which was popular in that era. However, Song Zhi always liked pure cotton material, which was comfortable to wear.
After picking and choosing, I finally found a gentle cardigan and a knitted long skirt, paired with small leather shoes, and braided a fluffy and natural low ponytail. I walked around the mirror and it was perfect. I took my small bag and prepared to go.
"Zhizhi, it's still early. Let's go to the Friendship Store with Xiaojin first. My friend told me that a new batch of goods will arrive there today. Buy whatever you like. This is the red envelope your auntie gave you." As she said that, she took out the red envelope that she had prepared in advance from her bag and stuffed it into Song Zhi's hand.
Song Zhi held the red envelope, looking a little helpless, and wanted to return the red envelope to Jiang's mother.
"Auntie, I..."
"Take it. This is a gift from the elders. You cannot refuse it." Jiang Nan looked at her with amusement. This child used to stick to her and call her "Auntie". It was so sweet. All these years when her daughter was not around, it was thanks to this child who often chatted with her. Why did they become more distant now that they were getting married?
Song's mother tidied her daughter's clothes and said with a smile, "Take it. This is a gift from your Aunt Jiang."
Song Zhi had no choice but to accept it and put it in his bag.
At this moment, Gu Huaijin drove to the door. Song Zhi saw him and hurried over.
"Mom, Aunt Jiang, we're leaving." Song Zhi got in the car and waved to the two of them.
