Yu Sui did not comment. It was probably not her turn to do this.
Finally, Sister Yan Zi said, "She also specifically said that she heard you work in the factory under our supply and marketing cooperative. Since you are here, you are also a family member. She asked you to come and prepare a performance."
"Huh? Why?"
Yu Suixian was surprised.
She is not a military dependent, so why was she invited?
"I don't know. She's a person who does whatever she wants." Sister Yan Zi shrugged helplessly: "You should have seen her, right?"
Yu Sui nodded and told the story of her last visit to Guan Changqing.
Sister Yan frowned. "She wasn't that arrogant before, but ever since Vice Chairman Zhang took office, she's acted like a big shot. My husband, Fang, has warned me several times to be careful with my words when I meet her in the future. He says that even the regiment commander is interested in her now! Oh, and by the way, I heard from another family member that she even called her brother from her hometown for a blind date, and the girl she met is the regiment commander's daughter."
Yu Sui: "Ah? Come on, her brother is here for a blind date?"
Sister Yan Zi: "Do you know her brother?"
"I don't know her very well. I was just on my way from home and shared a sleeper compartment with her brother Guan Huiqing."
"What about her brother? Is he also so arrogant?"
"I think he's younger than her." Yu Sui said honestly, "He's quite polite."
Sister Yan Zi didn't comment any further, but only warned Yu Sui:
"Since our boss warned me, I didn't dare to refuse for you. You can come with me to dinner, and if you can't perform, just say you can't. After all, she's from the troupe and likes to be in the spotlight, so we have to give in to her. She probably asked us to go just to highlight her singing and dancing skills."
Yu Sui obeyed the instruction obediently: "Tai, I understand."
In the blink of an eye, half a month passed.
The food factory of the supply and marketing cooperative can already produce more than ten kilograms of rice cakes and more than ten kilograms of flower candies every day. Because Yu Sui designed the packaging, it looks more upscale than ordinary things, so the market response is very good.
Sister Yan Zi was very happy:
"Hey, Yu Sui, I just thought about asking you to make some candy first. I'd like to do it if I can avoid losing money. Turns out it sells even better than the candy we get from the provincial capital. It's amazing! By the way, I heard your factory also produces pine nut candy and dragon beard candy. These things sound delicious just by the name. We need to diversify the food variety for the people. How about you teach us how to make them?"
Yu Sui agreed immediately: "That's no problem. But if I make these two kinds of candies again, I might have to stay longer than a month."
Sister Yanzi smiled knowingly: "Oh, I understand, I understand. How about you stay for another month?"
Yu Sui smiled from ear to ear: "Thank you, sister-in-law!"
When Yu Sui got off work that day, she just pushed her bicycle to the factory gate and saw Xia Lin standing on the side of the road with snow on his hat.
Seeing Yu Sui coming out, this guy immediately ran over, his hat almost blowing off his head: "Oh, my wife is off work, I've been waiting for an hour."
Yu Sui: "You came from the border? Why don't you go to the dormitory and wait? I'll always come after get off work. Why are you standing in the cold?"
Xia Lin's eyes were full of smiles under his hood: "I want to look at you for a while longer."
Just hearing this, Yu Sui felt sweet in her heart. She took the initiative to let him ride her bike and sat on the back seat herself.
When they got to the dormitory, Xia Lin didn't let Yu Sui do anything and asked her to sit while he was busy lighting the fire pit, preparing meals, washing clothes and sweeping the floor. He didn't help Yu Sui take off her coat until the room was warm, and then he brought her hot meals.
Yu Sui looked at him sitting opposite her, still a little dazed: "I've been eating alone for so many days, and suddenly seeing you, I'm still a little uncomfortable!"
"What do you mean, don't you miss me?"
"No, I'm busy with work. When I get home I have to knit sweaters and gloves. I can't think of you."
"You're so heartless! I think about you every day and wanted to send you a letter. My comrades laughed at me, saying I could see you in two weeks, but why would I write to you? What would they do if they couldn't see me for several days? That's why I wrote but didn't dare to send it to you. I was afraid they'd be jealous. Hehehe, but I wrote it and hid it for you to see."
Xia Lin took out a stack of letters from her green schoolbag and gave them to Yu Sui.
Yu Sui picked up the phone, flipped through it, and saw a letter from her hometown.
Yu Sui: "Is this sent from home?"
Xia Lin glanced at it and said, "Oh, this is from our old family's military department. I haven't had time to read it yet. It should be about the results of our investigation."
Yu Sui handed him the letter and said, "Then take a quick look. The person who reported you must be Yu Qiu, but I think the case has been resolved by now. If she goes to jail, I'll have an extra bowl of rice to celebrate."
Xia Lin was peeling a potato for Yu Sui: "I can't free my hands. You can peel it if you want. You have the right to know."
Yu Sui: "Then wait until you have time to open it. I shouldn't open your letters casually."
Xia Lin was a little helpless, but more of an admiring person. He quickly passed the food that Yu Sui had eaten to her, ate the rest himself, and then opened the letter.
He almost finished reading and frowned.
Yu Sui: "Are you ready to get married?"
Xia Lin spread the letter in front of her: "I don't know if it's good or bad, it's a bit... weird. It says Yu Qiu has gone crazy. Take a look."
Yu Sui almost dropped the bowl she was holding and quickly picked up the letter to read.
It turned out that the letter was from Director Shen of the People's Armed Forces Department in his hometown county. He said that the person who reported Xia Lin had been found and it was indeed Yu Qiu, a substitute teacher at Dongfeng Brigade Primary School. However, during Yu Qiu's detention, he began to show mental abnormalities. The county found two groups of psychiatrists to examine him, and both believed that Yu Qiu was indeed mentally abnormal.
As for the mentally ill patient, their armed forces department could not deal with her casually. Finally, they could only work together with the county public security bureau and the county hospital to issue various certificates. She is currently being detained in the city's mental hospital.
Of course, the county people’s armed forces department will also report this situation to the troops here so that Xia Linbei doesn’t have to worry.
Yu Sui put down the letter and sighed heavily: "Yu Qiu, it's true."
Xia Lin: "What do you mean? You don't believe it?"
"I definitely don't believe it. Yu Qiu, you must be pretending."
"Why?"
"Because if she didn't pretend to be crazy, her crime would be more serious. There's something I didn't think it was appropriate to tell you at first, but I'm going to tell you now so you know what's going on."
Yu Sui told Xia Lin everything about the encounter with the brigade secretary before coming here and the fact that Yu Qiu wrote in his diary that a certain important person would die the next day.
Xia Linbei was a person of this era. When she heard the news, she was completely stunned: "How could she write this? Damn it!"
