Chapter 237 Things come true in a secret way
When I sent Xu Xiwen back home in the afternoon, I handed her a package.
"what?"
"Something you care about."
Xu Xiwen opened it curiously, then exclaimed, looked up in disbelief and said, "Baifu Quilt!"
"If I don't take it out, my ears will be callused from your nagging."
Xu Xiwen said arrogantly, "Humph, why didn't you give it to me earlier, so that I could secretly drink that vinegar."
"Yeah, I smelled it a long time ago." Gu Mingyue joked, "Isn't it just to see you jumping up and down?"
Xu Xiwen touched the Baifu quilt lovingly and said, "For the sake of the gift, I won't make it a fuss with you. By the way, as for the matter of the mountain cats, I am not jealous anymore. However, remember to send me photos of them when you go back. Although I don't have mountain cats to lead the way, at least I have the memory. Alas..." She sighed deliberately.
"Stop making such a scene here. I'll just make you jealous. I think only your man can stand you. If Xiaoxue was half as good as you, I wouldn't have gone to so much trouble to plan. I hope she can live as clearly as you."
Xu Xiwen grinned and laughed, "Oh my, it's so rare to see you praising me. You finally discovered my shining point, right?"
"Yes, yes, you have always been brilliant, incomparable, peerless, and unrivaled. Are you satisfied now? Are you still jealous?"
Xu Xiwen stretched out her little finger and said, "There's still a little bit left. If you praise me more, I might be even happier."
Gu Mingyue said unhappily, "You are the one who pushes the envelope. The car is here, let's go, and remember to call me when you get home."
Xu Xiwen showed a reluctant look and said, "Okay, you must remember to write to me too."
"understood."
On the third day after their wedding, Lu Xue and Shen Zhiqiang returned to Gujia Village with smiles on their faces and gifts in their hands.
Whenever I met villagers on the road, I would grab a handful of wedding candy and give it to everyone I saw.
Gu Mingyue went to her uncle's house to wait so as to avoid running back and forth.
When they met again, Shen Zhiqiang still looked a little unnatural, but he also knew that he had spoken out of turn, so he lowered his posture and said, "I was too busy before and didn't have time to explain. I have already warned those relatives and also talked to my parents. They promised that they would never interfere with my married life. Also, my uncle asked me to tell you that what he promised must be counted. If you have time to visit his home, he can arrange a special car to pick you up. If you want to bring Da Mao and the others, you are welcome at any time."
Gu Mingyue said calmly, "Let's talk about it later, depending on my mood. I don't have time for now, as I have a lot of things to do in the village."
Liu Caixia tried to smooth things over, "Yes, yes, the workshop has a lot of orders, I will definitely go there if I have the chance. Zhiqiang, you guys can come to the village and stay for two days during your holidays, there is room at home, food and drinks, don't hesitate."
"Okay, then don't find me annoying when the time comes."
Liu Caixia smiled and said, "Of course not. I wish you two could come back more often. Otherwise, I would feel lonely when the children are not at home."
Guangxin pouted and said, "Aunt, I am a child too!"
Li Xiuhe was now very worried when she saw her daughter who was even more naughty than her son. "You are everywhere! There are so many delicious foods but they can't stop you from eating your food."
"Mom, you love me less and less!" Guangxin complained aggrievedly.
Li Xiuhe slapped her daughter who was misbehaving and said embarrassedly, "Xiaoxue, Zhiqiang, the child is immature, please don't be offended. Eat quickly, eat quickly, the food is cold."
After saying this, she secretly glared at Brother Gu, meaning to let him see his good daughter.
If someone sits nearby, disaster will come from the sky!
Second Brother Gu sighed secretly. He didn't understand why he was always the one who got hurt when the mother and daughter quarreled...
Lu Xue chatted with Gu Mingyue privately, saying that the Shen family was very nice to her, and Shen Zhiqiang also went along with her.
"Oh my, I just gave your brother Shen a cold look, and you immediately helped to explain. Are you afraid that he will be wronged?"
Lu Xue said angrily, "No, I just want to tell you that I'm doing well. If you have a conflict, I will definitely stand by your side."
"Really?"
Lu Xue said firmly, "Of course, is there any need to say this?"
Then he took the initiative to hug her and said, "Mingyue, I know you don't like sentimentality, but I still want to say one thing - thank you!"
"Okay, I believe you. There's no need for formalities between us. Take good care of yourself. As I said before, don't be wronged. Always remember that loving yourself is more important than anything else. Got it?"
"Listen to you."
The excitement fades away and ordinary life continues.
At the end of the year, Guangsheng came back, and while having the New Year's Eve dinner, Gu Mingyue talked to him about finding an early job.
"Aunt, don't be so anxious. There are companies recruiting third-year students, but the salary may be lower. Many large companies will wait until graduation to contact the counselor first to confirm that the grades and comments are excellent before notifying for an interview. I have performed well. I should be able to find a good job after waiting for another year."
Seeing that her family was somewhat confused, Gu Mingyue could not tell the real reason, so she could only use Shen Qianzhong as an excuse and said solemnly, "There is news from Beijing that the situation is not stable and there is a high possibility of another turmoil. I am afraid that it will affect the school, so it is better to make plans early. Think carefully, have the leaders of your school behaved abnormally recently?"
It had been sixty-five years, so there couldn't have been no signs. Even Xu Xiwen wrote to remind her to dress conservatively, so there must be something unusual.
As expected, Guangsheng frowned and said, "What you said is true. Our school leaders, especially those teachers who taught foreign languages before, used to dress very fashionably. Now they all dress simply. Many of them disappeared for no reason. Some people said they asked for leave, and there are also rumors that they ran to the other side. I don't know how such news came out?!"
Liu Caixia was naturally concerned about her son's future. When she heard this, she hurriedly asked, "What do you mean? We can't fight again, right?"
Gu Mingwei scolded, "Don't talk nonsense!" Knowing that his wife was also anxious, he softened his tone and said, "It's probably an internal struggle. It shouldn't have much impact. If you don't believe me, ask Mingyue."
"Sister-in-law, I'm just being safe. Anyway, there's only one year left. No, it should be only half a year. Normally they will be able to join the unit next semester. It won't make much difference if they join earlier."
She turned to Guangsheng and asked, "Do you have a favorite unit?"
"No."
Gu Mingyue thought for a moment and said, "Then when school starts, you can ask your counselor. Any company that recruits students from a university is not bad. Besides, you have just graduated. Even if you go to a big company, you will start from scratch. Gold shines everywhere. You can occupy a place first. If you perform well in the future, it will not be difficult to transfer. Don't let anything happen, or you won't even have the chance to choose."
Gu Guoqiang took a puff of his pipe and said, "Guangsheng, listen to your aunt. She is very experienced and thinks long-term. We ordinary people want a stable life. We have finally been admitted to university and will graduate soon. We just need to change our career path at the last minute. We can't let this happen."
"I know, Grandpa. I'll ask when I get back." Then he said to Gu Mingyue, "Aunt, don't worry. I have a good family background. I'll be fine."
"I'm not worried about you getting into trouble, I'm just afraid that you'll get implicated. Guangsheng, remember, keeping secrets can lead to failure. If anyone asks you about school starting, just say your family is pushing you hard and they want you to earn money to support the family. Don't be too talkative. When you're alone outside, don't trust others easily and be careful about everything."
"Okay, I remember."
