Chapter 43 Worry



"Wife, I'm on a mission, you take care of yourself at home." Gu Mingze ran home soaking wet and looked at Lu Qingyan deeply.

He said hello to his father-in-law and mother-in-law, turned around and ran downstairs, went back to gather, and led two companies to the next city for support.

"You're leaving now?" Mother Lu was awakened by the sound of the door closing before she could react. She looked at her daughter blankly and said

"Well, let's go." Lu Qingyan said with a smile pretending to be relaxed.

"You can still laugh? You are so careless." Mother Lu looked at her laughing daughter and glared at her.

"Look at what you said. Why am I crying instead of laughing?" Seeing her mother like this, Lu Qingyan was really at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

"Okay, you two should stop arguing. Finish your meal early and go back to sleep. This will also save some electricity bills." Father Lu stopped the old woman from talking and said

"Yes, eat quickly and go back to sleep to save electricity." Mother Lu nodded repeatedly after hearing this.

"The electricity bill isn't that much." Lu Qingyan had just finished speaking when the lights went out.

"What's going on? Is it broken?" Mother Lu exclaimed as she looked at the dark room.

"It seems like there's a power outage, Mom, don't move, I'll go to your room to get the kerosene lamp." After Lu Qingyan finished speaking, she groped her way to her mother's room, found the kerosene lamp and kerosene, picked up a box of matches and walked out carefully.

"Hey, this city is really bad. The power goes out when it rains and the weather is bad. You have to pay for everything. It's not as good as our brigade at all." Mother Lu lit the kerosene lamp and ate in the light.

"But it's convenient, there's everything in the house." Lu Qingyan retorted when she heard this.

"It's convenient now, but what about winter? We have a firewall at home, what's here? Let's see if you'll be cold in winter." Mother Lu pouted as she looked at her daughter.

"Oh, right. There's nothing here in winter. It must be freezing cold, right?" Lu Qingyan started shivering when she thought about the fact that there was nothing here in winter.

"Boom, boom, boom."

"Who is it?" Lu Qingyan stood up and opened the door. She looked at the middle-aged woman who was about the same age as her mother and asked in confusion, "Auntie, who are you?"

"You are Captain Gu's wife, and I live across the street from you. You can just call me Aunt Lin." The middle-aged woman said with a smile.

"Hello, Auntie Lin, why are you here?" Lu Qingyan nodded and said with a smile

"I came here to borrow your kerosene lamp. We were having dinner at home, but suddenly there was a power outage and I couldn't see anything, so I came to ask about your family." Aunt Lin looked at the light in the house and her smile became even more intense.

"Oh, I'm having dinner at home too. I can't lend it to you. Sorry, Aunt Lin." Lu Qingyan said apologetically and was about to close the door.

But Aunt Lin stopped him and said in a reproachful manner: "Captain Gu is out on a mission, and you are alone at home. What do you need a kerosene lamp for? Lend it to me, and I will return it to you tomorrow."

"Hey, look at what you said. Is it wrong for my daughter to use her own kerosene lamp?" Lu's mother originally thought that it was between neighbors, and they would lend her the kerosene lamp after dinner, but now after hearing what she said, she came over and said with an unhappy look on her face.

"Well, there's someone at home. I won't bother you anymore, haha." Aunt Lin looked at the woman who was stronger than herself and turned around and went home with a laugh.

"Bah, what a joke." Mother Lu spat at the door, closed the door, looked at Lu Qingyan and said, "You have to be thick-skinned in the future, otherwise you will be bullied to death."

"Okay, I understand, mother." Lu Qingyan agreed with a look of resignation. After dinner, she washed up, applied some balm, and soaked her feet.

Lying in bed, she began to worry about Gu Mingze, worried that he would get hurt, worried that he wouldn't have enough to eat or wear warm clothes. As she worried, she fell asleep in a daze.
