Chapter 57
The soundproofing measures these days are really average.
The Su family members heard most of the argument between Qin Chao and Xie Yinyin, if not all of it.
They were all ready to leave, but unexpectedly Qin Chao came out, and they were all a little embarrassed.
But the old couple of the Su family had been in the business for many years. Seeing that Qin Chao did not show any embarrassment in his heart, they said, "Qin's boy, thank you for speaking for my Su Ye just now."
The old couple of the Su family did not want their young people to have anything to do with the Qin family, but at the beginning, Grandma Qin Chao and Grandma Su were close friends. Although the relationship between the two families gradually faded after Grandma Qin passed away, she did not want her grandson, who was loved by her old sisters, to become a lonely person without any good friends.
Now that others have spoken out to help, they should naturally be grateful.
Qin Chaochong nodded slightly to the others, as if nothing had happened just now. He said calmly: "Grandma Su, you are polite. You are my grandma's good friend, and this is what I should do."
After saying that, he glanced at Su Ye, which made Su Ye's heart skip a beat and he immediately had a bad premonition.
Sure enough, the next moment she heard Qin Chao say: "Besides, Su Ye saved me before, so I am repaying him for saving my life."
Su Ye gritted his teeth, is this repaying a favor or taking revenge? Big brother, please shut up!
However, no one could hear her inner voice. The old couple were even more shocked by the words "life-saving grace". What kind of thing could be called a life-saving grace?
So the two of them asked hurriedly, but the second brother of the Su family, who had not spoken a word, looked at his sister deeply. His jealous and vengeful sister was really too bold and now it was getting more and more difficult to manage. It was really difficult to deal with the eldest brother being transferred away.
"Last time I was in danger, it was thanks to Su Ye and a comrade named Yu Yao who saved me. Otherwise, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to stand in front of you now." Qin Chao ignored Su Ye's vicious warning look and continued, "But the people who caused trouble to me before were the gangsters from Shanghai, Brother Hua and his group, so Comrade Su Ye and Comrade Yu Yao should also be careful."
"This is my problem. I'm sorry to have caused you all trouble." After saying this, he bowed to the old couple and was quickly helped up by Grandma Su.
Grandma Su glared at her little granddaughter. She had never mentioned a word about what had happened. If someone really targeted her, this silly girl would probably be eaten until nothing was left.
Seeing that the old couple was concerned about this matter, Qin Chao said goodbye. When he met Su Ye's unhappy gaze, he moved his lips but still said nothing and walked away.
With the Su family around, he probably doesn't need to say anything more.
Yu Yao didn't know yet that another of her deeds had been known to the Su family. She and Gu Qing had a good sleep, packed up their things, and went to visit Zhu Guoming.
Zhu Guoming was a little surprised to see them come so early, but luckily he had already packed the things prepared for Yu Yao when he came back.
"These are what Ah Ci and I sorted out before. Although most of them are just for fun, they should be in line with your needs. I don't have any requirements. I just hope you can treat these notes well."
Yu Yao flipped open the yellowed pages of the notes and took a look. They were richly illustrated with pictures and texts, and were more practical than many books nowadays, especially for people who had no basic knowledge of botany.
Looking at the various handwritings above, it is not difficult to tell that they were written by two people. Thinking of Zhu Ci, Yu Yao couldn't help feeling a little sad. She wanted to ask Mr. Zhu whether she wanted to keep it as a commemoration, but she didn't open her mouth. Since Mr. Zhu had already decided to give it to her, he must have considered it carefully.
"Don't worry, Mr. Zhu. I will take good care of these notes. If you want to see them again, please come to me."
Hearing her words, Mr. Zhu naturally understood what she meant, smiled and said, "Okay, okay, I hope it will be useful to you."
The three chatted for a while and learned that Mr. Zhu was ready to return to the research institute, so Yu Yao and the others were relieved.
It is a good thing for Mr. Zhu now to be able to focus all his attention on research.
I believe that he will devote himself to his work with his faith and thoughts for his grandson, and realize the common ideal that they once shared.
Yu Yao went into the kitchen and prepared a table full of delicious food for the old man, and also made some preserved pickles for him. They stayed together until the afternoon, when they returned to the guesthouse and headed to the train station with their food.
With Gu Qing around and Yu Yao having space, riding the train alone for the two of them was much better than their previous experience.
However, the green train that takes a day and a night is not that comfortable to ride. When we arrived in Beijing, Yu Yao felt depressed again.
"My sister has a cold personality. If you feel that she is difficult to get along with, then it must be her problem." Seeing that Yu Yao was anxious, Gu Qing explained the situation at home to Yu Yao while walking out with his things in his hand.
In fact, Yu Yao doesn't care much about it. Family affection can't be forced, just like her family and Jiang Yugui. So if Gu Qing's family treats her in a certain way, she will treat them the same way. However, it is inevitable that she is nervous.
"Dad, my dad is over there."
Yu Yao looked in the direction Gu Qing pointed, and saw a man and a woman looking at them in front. The man waved at them and then came over.
"Dad, this is Yu Yao, Ah Yao, this is my dad, and my sister Gu Yu."
Yu Yao quickly called out, "Dad, sister."
"Brother, sister-in-law." As soon as Gu Yu opened his mouth, Yu Yao knew that what Gu Qing said just now was not groundless. Her sister-in-law did not change her expression throughout the whole process. She looked very cold, but she had no idea what she was thinking inside.
But she came to pick us up, greeted us politely, and showed no displeasure. She seemed easy to get along with.
"Okay, okay, let's go back first. You must be hungry. Your mother has prepared dinner at home."
Gu Wu wanted to take the things from Gu Qing's hand, but Gu Qing wouldn't let him, so they went straight to the car.
After getting in the car, Gu Qing sat in the back with Yu Yao. He held Yu Yao's hand and chatted with Gu Wu from time to time, mostly asking about their plans, the situation of Grandpa Gu and Yu Yao's family.
She didn't talk much, and the questions she asked didn't make Yu Yao feel uncomfortable. Gu Yu didn't say a word the whole time. Yu Yao looked at her in the rearview mirror and saw that she was staring into the void with an expressionless face. No one knew what she was thinking.
The train station was a little distance away from Gu's house. Yu Yao was originally sitting lightly, but somehow she slowly leaned on Gu Qing's shoulder and fell asleep.
"Ah Yao, wake up, go home and sleep again later."
Yu Yao hummed as usual, but did not move.
Gu Qing laughed and whispered in her ear, "If you don't go in, your parents will laugh at you soon."
When she heard the word "mom and dad", Yu Yao was stunned for a moment, then she sat up abruptly. Seeing her dazed look, Gu Qing couldn't help but kiss her on the face, then pulled her out of the car.
Gu Wu, who was about to enter the house first, turned around and took a look. He happened to see this scene. His teeth ached and he quickly turned his head back.
He and his wife have had to worry about this brat for so many years.
Yu Yao straightened her clothes. Before she entered the house, Gu's mother Zeng Yue came to greet her with a smile, "Hey, this must be my Ah Yao, come here and let me take a look. I never dreamed that Gu Qing, that stinky boy, would bring me such a beautiful daughter-in-law. He finally did something worthy of my respect."
"Mom." Yu Yao tried to hold back her laughter and was pulled into the house by Zeng Yue.
Once inside, the lights became even brighter.
When the Gu couple saw Yu Yao's appearance, they felt more and more satisfied. Even though she looked a little tired after sitting in the car for a day and a night, her overall temperament could not deceive people.
No wonder my son hasn’t found one for so many years. After all this time, he still likes pretty girls.
Zeng Yue prepared a table full of dishes and hurriedly asked everyone to sit down and eat. While eating, she did not ask much but just greeted Yu Yao, which made Yu Yao breathe a sigh of relief.
The family was very happy to learn that they could stay at home for two days. You know, Gu Qing has been getting busier and busier in recent years, and he has been home very few times. There were even times when he didn't even go home. It's good that he can stay for two days this time.
After dinner, Gu Qing cleaned up the dishes on his own accord. Yu Yao subconsciously wanted to help but was stopped by Zeng Yue, "Don't worry about it. In our family, men wash the dishes. He doesn't bully you at home, does he? I heard that you cook delicious food. Is this brat just being lazy and letting you do it?"
Yu Yao was a little surprised. She thought that Gu Qing's ability to cook was just an exception, but she didn't expect it to be a family tradition.
"No." Yu Yao said honestly, "Gu Qing can also make it when he is free. He is also a good cook. I only now know that he inherited his skills from my mother."
"Hey, you little sweetheart, come quickly, I'll take you to your room. I've already packed up the room. See if you need anything, then take a shower and have a rest. You must be exhausted, right?"
Zeng Yue had a smile on her face and didn't seem to be dissatisfied with Yu Yao at all. She was very affectionate. Although Yu Yao was a little confused, it was better than the other party disliking her, so Yu Yao agreed to everything she said, which made the other party more satisfied.
Gu Qing's room is on the east side of the second floor. To the left is Gu Yu's room. In the middle is a study room they share and a guest room.
Gu's father and mother live on the first floor, and there is also grandpa's room on the first floor.
Zeng Yue had prepared everything very well. Not only did she prepare shampoo and soap, which were rare these days, but she even prepared pajamas for Yu Yao. "This dress is newly made and washed. You can wear it to sleep."
"Thank you, Mom." Even if Yu Yao used the eyes of future generations, she could not find any fault with the Gu family. At this moment, she was completely relieved.
She went to take a shower, and Zeng Yue left.
Yu Yao didn't know when Gu Qing would come back. Presumably, they had a lot to talk about between father and son, so Yu Yao didn't wait for him and fell asleep directly.
The next morning, it was already noon when Yu Yao woke up in Gu Qing's arms. She found that the clothes she was wearing were not right. When she saw the surrounding environment, she remembered that she had arrived at Gu Qing's house. She hurriedly woke Gu Qing up.
"Hurry up, are we getting up too late?"
Unexpectedly, Gu Qing pushed her back to the bed and said, "It's not too late at all. Aren't we on holiday? Of course we should rest more during the holiday."
Yu Yao was speechless. Is this what she meant?
Gu Qing didn't know when he developed this habit, but after he woke up in the morning, washed up and exercised, if Yu Yao hadn't gotten up yet, he would lie back in bed and sleep with her.
Although Yu Yao likes it very much, it’s not appropriate at this time, okay?
"Your parents may think I've made you lazy later, so get up quickly."
"It's okay. They've all gone to work. It's just the two of us at home. My mom said she'll take the afternoon off to go out with you. A-Yu will come along."
Nowadays, everyone really loves to work and will not ask for leave unless it is necessary. Zeng Yue wanted to ask for leave directly, but was persuaded by Gu Qing.
Of course Yu Yao didn't know. She felt relieved when she heard Gu Qing say that. "Your mother is so nice. She doesn't act like a mother-in-law at all."
Gu Qing stared at her and held her tightly, "It's our mother."
Even so, Yu Yao didn't stay too long, "Let's go buy some food and cook something delicious for our parents. You haven't been home for so long, you should show some filial piety to them."
Gu Qing: "I always listen to my wife."
Yu Yao rubbed his goose bumps and went to wash up.
The two of them hadn't had such leisure time for a long time, and Yu Yao was enjoying it quite a bit. After packing up and eating the breakfast left by Zeng Yue, the two of them went out side by side.
"What kind of food do Dad, Mom and A-Yu like to eat?"
"My dad likes sweet food, such as sweet and sour spareribs, glutinous rice and lotus root, and braised pork. My mom likes spicy food, such as spicy chicken and spicy fish. My sister is casual and no one cares about her."
Yu Yao frowned, "What are you talking about? Your family doesn't favor boys over girls, does it?"
"No, no, no, you misunderstood." Gu Qing realized that his words were ambiguous, and he quickly explained, "Ayu has never been picky about food since she was a child. She eats everything. Look at the way she dresses. Could my family favor boys over girls? If we really favor boys over girls, my parents wouldn't be so nice to you."
That's true, but Yu Yao still feels something is wrong. In fact, for people like Gu Qing and Gu Yu, it's a bit strange to have Gu Yu as a family member.
"Has your sister been so quiet since she was a child?"
Before Gu Qing could answer, a voice suddenly came from behind the two of them, "Gu Qing!"
They both turned around at the same time and saw two young girls walking towards them. The girl in front had red eyes and was staring at Gu Qing. Yu Yao felt that expression was very familiar. Wasn't this You Ling from back then?
Yu Yao couldn't help but sneer, and the next second Gu Qing grabbed her hand.
The girl frowned fiercely without disguising her expression.
But Gu Qing didn't care about her at all and was about to leave with Yu Yao, but who knew that the other party actually trotted forward and blocked their way.
I thought she was going to complain, but she actually said, "Gu Qing, I heard that you found a wife from the countryside. After all, we grew up together. Why don't you introduce her to me?"
Unexpectedly, Gu Qing didn't give her any face at all and said, "Lin Ling, if I remember correctly, you were already in your teens when you moved to this family compound. I joined the army within two years. How can you say we grew up together? How can you say that so easily?"
If you want to talk nonsense in front of her daughter-in-law, it's impossible.
"But... we see each other every year, so why can't we say we grew up together?"
She stared at Gu Qing closely, and that expression made Yu Yao very uncomfortable, even though Gu Qing's tone was very impatient.
"If you ask about me every year and force your mother to come to my house to visit, then we must have grown up together. But I don't want to let irrelevant people affect my wife's mood, so I don't want to introduce you."
Lin Ling had never expected this to happen. She just wanted to take advantage of the time when Gu Qing was introducing his wife to ridicule him and scold him for being blind. She didn't expect that he would actually block her way. Lin Ling was so angry that she couldn't speak for a long time.
At this time, the girl next to Lin Ling spoke up as if she couldn't stand it, "Gu Qing, how can you say that? Lin Ling just likes you, she has done nothing wrong, how can you say that to a girl?"
"Xiao Qin! What are you saying!"
Lin Ling looked at Xiao Qin in disbelief. Didn’t they agree to come here to humiliate Gu Qing today?
Gu Qing is already married now, what's the point of talking about likes and dislikes?
Even if it's good for you, you can't say that. Wouldn't that just make you a laughing stock? Isn't Xiao Qin too stupid?
"Who do you think you are? How dare you control me?" Gu Qing would never say such words to a girl, but this Xiao Qin actually dared to instigate people to cause trouble in front of Yu Yao, so don't blame him for being rude.
"Do you think that everyone in the world is stupid and will believe whatever you say? Why have you been unpopular since you were a child? Don't you have any sense? How can you talk to people in the family compound? Do you need me to explain it clearly?"
Lin Ling was confused by these words. She always felt that Gu Qing was scolding her. Didn't she believe everything Xiao Qin said? But Xiao Qin had never hurt her and had often helped her. Could it be that her words were not trustworthy?
And what do his subsequent words mean?
She didn't quite understand what he said, but Xiao Qin understood it instantly and her face turned pale.
Just as she was about to retort, Gu Qing had already dragged Yu Yao away, and before she left, Yu Yao left a message, "Be careful when making friends."
There was no need for anything else. Just from that one sentence, Yu Yao could sense the malice in Xiao Qin's words towards herself and Lin Ling.
This person is really vicious. He dragged two people into trouble with just one sentence.
"You have quite a lot of bad luck in love." Yu Yao teased Gu Qing.
Gu Qing gave her a silly smile, "Sometimes being too good can be a problem."
Yu Yao curled her lips, this guy is so shameless.
"They don't really like me that much. I don't know if you understand this mentality, but the more I ignore them, the more they may think I'm different from others. This is true for both men and women."
Yu Yao certainly understood that what you can't get will always make you restless.
"But, are the people in your courtyard so simple?" Then Lin Ling probably got sold and still helped count money, right?
And how dare they look down on country people?
"This is not difficult to understand. If you are used to it at home and have been pampered since childhood, you don't have to think about many things yourself, so you will naturally become stupid over time."
Seeing that Yu Yao seemed very interested, Gu Qing told her about the two girls.
"We all live in the same compound. It would be strange if I didn't know them. Don't listen to her nonsense. I remember her name."
As a soldier, he should have this sensitivity. Besides, it's nothing. What Gu Qing said was not a lie. Lin Ling would basically come to visit him with her mother as soon as she heard that he was coming home, or they would meet him outside by chance, just like today.
If it were usual, Gu Qing might nod in response to their greetings and then leave with the excuse of having something to do, and there would be no need to think about further communication. But today, Yu Yao was here, and Gu Qing didn't want Yu Yao to think too much.
Of course he also had his own little thoughts. He wanted to see Yu Yao's jealous look first, and she did not disappoint him just now. He was extremely happy. If he hadn't been in front of those two women, he would have laughed out loud.
He thought Yu Yao didn't know his little thoughts, but in fact Yu Yao knew it very well. However, she was still willing to listen to his explanation more, just don't say nothing.
Just as Gu Qing said, Lin Ling moved to the family compound when she was in her teens. Because she was well-behaved and had a good family background, she was very popular right away, but she just liked to follow Gu Qing around.
This was not because Gu Qing was so outstanding at that time. She was good-looking on the one hand, and she was also a gangster on the other. It was the rebellious age of youth, and most girls would admire the leader of a group of people. Gu Qing at that time was that leader.
Xiao Qin was the one who grew up with them. She was adopted by the Xiao family. Although she was young, she was already sensible. Perhaps for this reason, she was more sensitive since childhood and did some disgusting things.
For example, hiding the eraser of the classmate you sit next to in the desk of the person you dislike, pretending to be weak and pitiful, or often going home to tell on others.
Gu Qing remembered that one time when Gu Yu was playing with a classmate, she accidentally bumped into him and sprained his foot. Then, in order to prevent him from blaming his sister, Gu Qing offered to escort her to and from school.
At that time, many people had already begun to admire Gu Qing, especially the boys, so there was always a large group of people following the two little girls.
"I feel so embarrassed when I think about it now." Gu Qing said this with a bit of laughter and tears in his eyes.
Yu Yao imagined the scene of the bad boy and found it a little funny. "Let me guess, could it be that the girl you escorted is Lin Ling, and Xiao Qin saw her and followed her example to scam her sister?"
Gu Qing looked at Yu Yao in surprise, "What's wrong with your little head? How did you know that?"
Yu Yao: "..." She was just guessing, aren't all idiots like that? "So Lin Ling likes you because of that incident?"
"Maybe." Gu Qing said, "Anyway, I have never been interested in her. If you don't believe me, you can go ask Ayu."
That's really not the case. If Yu Yao is still jealous about something that happened hundreds of years ago, he would be really stupid.
"I saw with my own eyes that time she bumped into A-Yu while running, knocking her down, and she also sprained her ankle. Maybe she thought she was pretending well, but I saw clearly at the time that she bumped into someone first, and then twisted her ankle. Her ankle was swollen in a short while. She was only 11 years old at that time."
Yu Yao began to look at her with a new respect, of course, and it wasn't a compliment.
At such a young age, he is so calculating and more importantly, he is also cruel to himself.
"I didn't care about her little actions before, but I couldn't stand it when she bumped into A-Yu. I exposed her directly. Even if a child is good at lying, it will leave a mark. A-Yu and I can't be blamed when the teacher comes. From then on, she never dared to provoke my brother and me again, and she became more cautious about her little actions, but such things still happened a lot. Later, many people were unwilling to play with her."
He said this as if he was very mature at that time. Seeing him gossiping seriously, Yu Yao was holding back her laughter and telling her everything. How could she be so adorable?
Yu Yao doesn't think he is holding a grudge. Some children have bad habits since childhood. If they make mistakes and fail to correct them in time, they will only get worse, so we have to be careful. Isn't Xiao Qin like that?
Of course, this is definitely due to her adoptive parents. They adopted the child but did not educate him well, which was their dereliction of duty.
"She grew up and seemed to have changed for the better, but many of us knew her tricks. Lin Ling was made stupid by her family and believed whatever others said. Even A-Yu stopped being close to her."
"Anyway, just stay away from these two people. If they provoke you again, you don't have to pay any attention to them. If you don't want to endure a beating, that's fine."
"Pfft!" Yu Yao couldn't hold back her laughter any longer. She teased him, "Why do you say that about a girl?"
Gu Qing paused, as if he was thinking seriously about Yu Yao's problem. After a while, he said doubtfully: "If you dare to do it, don't be afraid of being criticized. You can't do something harmful to others just because you are a girl. If you weren't a girl, it wouldn't be so simple for me to say so." He would beat her till she was left with a broken tooth.
Yu Yao understood what he meant and became even happier. This seemingly cold person actually loves gossip, which is fine since she likes to listen to it anyway.
What happened to Lin Ling and Yu Yao was just a small episode for them and had no impact on them at all.
But Gu Qing had never scolded Lin Ling like that before. Lin Ling was very sad and went home crying without caring about Xiao Qin.
Xiao Qin wanted to go after her to comfort her, but Lin Ling locked her outside the house.
"Xiaoqin, what happened today?"
Mother Lin was a little worried when she saw the closed door, so she had to ask Xiao Qin who was standing beside her.
Xiao Qin lowered her head, and hesitated for a long time before she said, "When we went out just now... we ran into Gu Qing and his wife, and we..."
Hearing this, Lin's mother frowned. Seeing that she was speechless for a long time, she said, "Forget it. She is a stubborn person. She will be fine after she cries. You can go back first."
Xiao Qin looked at the closed door and listened to the crying inside. Although she was a little unwilling, she still nodded and said, "Then I'll go first, auntie."
"Well, go back quickly and don't let your parents worry."
After watching the person leave, Lin's mother knocked on the door twice, "Lin Ling, open the door. If you don't open the door, you won't have to go out for this month."
After she finished speaking, she waited, and sure enough, Lin Ling opened the door after a while. Her rabbit-like red eyes made Lin's mother feel heartbroken.
But if her daughter didn't learn a lesson, she would suffer a great loss sooner or later. She hardened her heart and said coldly, "Go in and talk."
Lin Ling was stunned by her mother's behavior, and then she felt even more aggrieved. Even her mother didn't care about her, right?
"You went to see Gu Qing? Who asked you to go? Xiao Qin?"
Lin Ling was completely stupefied by the three questions in a row.
"Mom..." I'm so sad, can't she care about me? Why is she asking these questions? It's really annoying.
"Don't call me mom. Didn't I tell you not to look for Gu Qing anymore? Don't you know he's already married? What do you want? Do you want to ruin your military marriage or go to jail?"
Lin Ling was really stunned when she heard her mother say such harsh words.
"How can it be so serious?" And how could her mother not believe her? Is she that kind of person?
"I……"
Before she could finish her words, Lin's mother yelled at her, "What do you mean it's not that serious? Then tell me, why did you go to him? Why are you crying?"
Lin Ling choked and wanted to cry. Her mother had never scolded her so harshly before. Didn't she just want to teach that Yu Yao a lesson? Besides, didn't she fail to teach him a lesson? Moreover, she was made a fool of by the other party. Whenever she thought of this, Lin Ling felt as if the sky was falling.
"Why are you crying? I'm asking you a question. Why did you go to see him?"
Lin Ling thought her mother was determined that she would interfere with Gu Qing's relationship. She also got angry and said angrily: "What's wrong with me looking for him? Can't I scold him for being blind? Can't I go and take a look at him marrying a country girl?"
Mother Lin looked at her doted-on daughter with some pain. She sighed, "Lingling, how did you become like this? Listen to what you said. Your grandparents are all from the countryside. The food you eat now is all from the countryside. Mom always thought you were a sensible girl. You really disappoint Mom."
"Mom..." Lin Ling was a little panicked. Her mother had clearly supported her in finding Gu Qing before, and had been supporting her for so many years. Could it be that she was not angry at all that Gu Qing suddenly got married?
But Lin Ling didn't dare to ask, her mother was already angry enough.
"Mom, I was wrong. I shouldn't have said that to her, but they still scolded me today."
"Scold you? What's going on?" Although Lin's mother was angry at her daughter's ignorance, she couldn't stand others bullying her, and immediately her protective spirit came out.
Seeing her like this, Lin Ling felt even more wronged. She angrily told her what had just happened. She stopped crying after she vented her anger. She said angrily, "Gu Qing actually called me a fool! Mom, do you think he was too much?"
Mother Lin poked her head hard and said, "I think he is right. You are just a little fool. I finally understand why Gu Qing doesn't like you."
"Why?" Lin Ling was still puzzled. "You're not going to say it's because I'm stupid, are you?"
Lin's mother gave her a look that showed she had some self-awareness. "People can see it at a glance, but you haven't understood it for so many years. Do you still have the nerve to dislike them?"
Lin's mother was so angry that she wanted to die. Is it too late for her and Old Lin to have another child now?
Concerning Xiao Qin, Lin's mother had told Lin Ling countless times, but her silly daughter would turn into a knife whenever she heard a few nice words from others.
It seems that this matter can no longer be discussed in a friendly way. Her husband, Mr. Lin, has to step in and directly transfer the Xiao family away. Although this is only a temporary solution, it can at least solve the problem temporarily.
Gu Qing is already married, and there is no chance for this silly girl to be with him anymore. She also has to find a suitable marriage for her girl.
Yu Yao and Gu Qing didn't know that their few words had changed the lives of the two girls. They went to the market and brought back a lot of vegetables, including a lot of dried vegetables, so that Yu Yao could make some meat sauce and the like.
Now that you have come to Beijing, you have to consider your career, right?
Although the pickles in Jing City are richer than those in Xichuan, there are still many fewer varieties than what she has seen in the future. As long as they can reach an agreement with the Liao family, they can do this business. Now they can accumulate connections and seize the market. When the 1980s comes and individual operations are allowed, they can also build factories in the north, so that they can avoid the problem of food spoilage to a greater extent.
When the Gu family returned home, they could smell the fragrance before they even entered the house. Zeng Yue immediately smiled from ear to ear. Who could have thought that she would not only have a daughter-in-law in her life, but also such a capable and beautiful daughter-in-law. If the two of them could have a child soon and then find a suitable partner for A Yu, her life would be complete.
"Mom and Dad, you're back. Where's A-Yu?"
"She's a little far away and should be back soon. You've worked so hard, Yao." Zeng Yue washed her hands as soon as she arrived in the kitchen, acting very enthusiastic.
Gu Yu looks young, but actually she is already working in a research institute. She skipped a grade in her studies. Although she did not go to university, she had very capable teachers to guide her, and now she can be considered a successful graduate.
After learning about this, Yu Yao finally understood why she looked so cold. This must be the loneliness of a genius.
Their minds are filled with research knowledge, so they naturally don't care much about ordinary things.
Suddenly, Yu Yao felt a little embarrassed to bother the girl she had asked to accompany her shopping in the afternoon.
But then she changed her mind and felt that no matter how talented she was, she should not spend all her time on work. She was a lively girl, but she looked mature beyond her years, and she didn't dress up much, and looked lifeless.
Just as the food was served, Gu Yu came back with her book in her hands. She just said hello and took the things in her hands back to the house before sitting down to eat.
Seeing Yu Yao bringing out a few small jars from the kitchen, Zeng Yue asked first, "What are these?"
They could all see that there should be food in the transparent glass jar, but they couldn't tell what it was. However, from the smell on the table they knew it was probably something, and they were all looking forward to it.
"Here are some different flavors of bibimbap sauces I made. Uncles, aunts, and sisters, you can try them and see which ones you like best. I'll make some more for you in the next two days. You can mix them with noodles or rice on a regular basis. You don't have to cook when you're busy."
Gu Wu is usually very busy in the army, Zeng Yue is in the hospital and may not have time to eat, and the same goes for Gu Yu. They often eat in the cafeteria in a hurry, but sometimes when they are busy, they easily miss the meals in the cafeteria. Having this is much more convenient.
Several people tasted it immediately and started praising it, but it was really difficult to ask them to choose, after all, it seemed that each one tasted different and all were very good.
"This rice sauce tastes much better than the one sold at the supply and marketing cooperative. It would be great if it could be supplied to the troops." Gu Wu's first thought was work. If the soldiers could take this sauce with them on missions, they wouldn't have to find it so hard to swallow dry grains.
"Can this be sold? If so, I will definitely get you a good reward."
Zeng Yue glared at him and said, "What are you talking about? You're trying to get everything into your team."
Even if you think so, can't you talk to your son in private first? What if your daughter-in-law gets angry and runs away?
Yu Yao really didn't expect that he would make such a request. It's not that Yu Yao was unwilling, but now she and the Liao family have reached a verbal agreement, and it is definitely impossible for her to give the recipe to others casually.
But it is not impossible to cooperate.
Yu Yao told the Gu family about the arrangements he and the Liao sisters had made. The whole family looked at Yu Yao in shock.
The main reason is that there is no one in their family who is engaged in business, so they thought what Yu Yao said was very impressive.
After a while, Gu Wu reacted and said, "There is nothing we can do about this."
"It's not impossible." Yu Yao said, "I can make some. Dad, you can bring them to let everyone try them. If they really want them, I will go back and contact the Liao family to see if they want to supply finished products or provide technical support. I will do my best to negotiate this. In addition..."
Yu Yao thought about it and expressed his thoughts, "In addition, we can also carry out deeper cooperation, or expand the scale of the industry, so that veterans and some military families can participate in the work."
Gu Wu was excited when he heard the word "veteran". "Tell me more about it?"
Actually, Yu Yao planned to implement this idea in the 1980s, but who knows what will happen in the future. If it can be realized now, it will definitely help Gu Wu's career. Moreover, the sooner it is done, the sooner it can help more people. Although I will earn less, I will not lose anything.
Sometimes you can consider interests, but there is no need to hold on to them too tightly.
Having made up his mind, Yu Yao expressed his thoughts. The military's connections were undoubtedly important. The more veterans participated in their work, the better their sales would be and the easier it would be to manage.
"There is only one thing, that is, once you enter the factory, you must obey the management, and you can't just put anyone in the factory. If you make a mistake, you must abide by the factory's rules and regulations."
In fact, the point that Yu Yao emphasized was mainly aimed at military families. Some people in the family compound made her a little scared. Some people thought they were superior because they were military families. If they had such thoughts, they would definitely bully the original workers.
Yu Yao said that she would definitely first protect the rights of the people of Liaojia Village, and then consider other things. She would not destroy the bridge after crossing the river.
In fact, at this point, they can apply to open a factory by themselves. Although it is complicated, it is not impossible for Gu to do it, especially if they can open a community-run factory in the countryside. I wonder how many people will welcome them.
But Yu Yao felt that the most important thing in doing business was trust. If she really did that, it might cause many people in Liaojia Village to lose their jobs early.
And there was no need for her to show up like this at this time.
Sure enough, Gu Wu did not make such a suggestion at all. Instead, he was very interested in her suggestion. He urged Yu Yao to eat quickly and discussed the details in the study after dinner.
"What are you talking about? We agreed to go shopping with Yao this afternoon."
Gu Wu frowned, "Alright, you guys go shopping this afternoon, don't eat these yet, I'll bring them over for them to try, and we can discuss this."
After saying this, he tapped the chopsticks of Gu Qing who was about to pick up the beef in sauce, and put away the glass jars.
Gu Qing looked at Yu Yao: "..."
