Chapter 167 One of Life's Greatest Joys

Lu Youyou found the unfinished second round of implementation summary report and added a few more pages.

"Why aren't you suitable for new equipment testing while recovering from an injury? One, two, three, four..."

As a "medical expert" supported by formal medical publications, Lu Youyou's arguments are reasonable, well-founded and credible.

Wu Weimin worked hard to rehabilitate just to catch up with the fitting of the new diving suit. Having missed the first two rounds, he was determined to participate in the next round.

Once this report is submitted, he will have to take a full three months' leave.

One step late, every step is late. He will not be part of the mission, and he will not get any credit. The capable will be promoted and the mediocre will be demoted. The position of deputy captain is not the Iron Throne.

Eliminating harm for the people is indeed a great joy in life. Lu Youyou's literary inspiration flows like a spring, and his writing is as if inspired by God. His output efficiency reaches the peak of his life.

As she put the last period, there was a knock on the door outside the yard.

Through the window, I saw Old Mrs. Wu standing there with her hands on her hips. Her nose was not a nose and her eyes were not eyes. She was gritting her teeth and frowning, with a very conflicted expression.

Seeing that it was her, Lu Youyou was not ready to come out. Not only did he close the window, he even planned to close the door of the room.

"Hey hey hey! What are you doing? Didn't you hear someone knocking on the door?"

"Hey, wait a minute!"

"Hey!" Old Mrs. Wu banged on the door. "Can't you hear me? I said I have something to tell you!"

very good!

Defamation, insults, and now adding another charge of disturbing the public, Lu Youyou suddenly got inspiration and could write two more pages of the report.

Seeing that his mother was about to mess things up again, Wu Weimin, who had wanted to hide behind the scenes, had to come out.

"Comrade Lu, wait a moment, my mother is here to apologize to you."

As Wu Weimin spoke, he tugged at the corner of Old Lady Wu's clothes. Old Lady Wu looked as if she had eaten a fly, and her old face was distorted beyond recognition.

Lu Youyou was too lazy to appreciate the double act between the mother and son. The old woman looked reluctant as if she wanted to eat someone. If she said sorry, she would probably stab the villain dozens of times when she got home. Anyone seeking revenge would have a better attitude than her.

Lu Youyou said nothing as if she didn't hear anything, and Wu Weimin became anxious.

The old lady cried and wailed at home, saying that it was not easy for a widow to raise a child, but her son blamed her for outsiders. He had finally persuaded his mother, so how could Lu Youyou not listen?
"Comrade Lu..."

"Wu Weimin, what do you want to do?!"

A male voice with hidden anger suddenly interrupted, and Gu Qingye strode forward to block the gate of the courtyard, forcing the mother and son to retreat repeatedly.

Wu Weimin was overwhelmed. Why did Gu Qingye come back?
He hurriedly urged his mother to come over because he didn't want to run into Gu Qingye, but who knew that it would be so unexpected that the old lady delayed time and Gu Qingye left work early.

Old Mrs. Wu was already reluctant, Lu Youyou ignored her, and Gu Qingye was ferocious. The old lady, unable to bear the anger, simply gave up.

"Wei Min, let's go. What's there to say to these two? She even asked me to apologize. Does she deserve it?!"

Wu Weimin was dragged home. He was not a flexible person, otherwise he would not let his mother take the lead in everything.

It was impossible to go back and apologize, especially in front of Gu Qingye. It was harder to get him to say sorry than to kill him.

"Are they messing with you again?"

Gu Qingye's voice was cold and there was no intention of concealing anything. It was directed at the two people who were leaving.

The old lady was startled by the cold and wanted to turn around to retort, but this time it was Wu Weimin who dragged her away.

The apology is already dead, so let's not add fuel to the fire. Previously, it could be explained as a quarrel between family members, but with Gu Qingye added to the mix, it's hard to say. Lu Youyou looked relaxed and handed over the masterpiece she had just written.

"I don't care. If my mother scolds me, my son's sentence will be extended by ten days. I'm going to make another proposal: those with unstable emotions or poor mental qualities are prohibited from entering the water to avoid affecting the actual test results. What do you think?"

Gu Qingye read ten lines at a glance, and before he finished reading, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"You are the expert, so the content of the report is naturally decided by you."

All he could guarantee was that the report would be delivered to the military district intact, and the Wu family would absolutely not be able to get their hands on it.

Wu Weimin didn't know that his unemployment would continue to extend. Seeing that Gu Qingye and his wife had not taken any action for many days, he thought that the matter had just passed.

During this period, the entire Wu family was immersed in the joy of having a new baby. The old lady took the child out to show off all day long, and no one remembered that there was another child lying in the hospital.

More than 20 days later, Zheng Aimei personally sent Wang Manzhi back. When the neighbors saw the haggard young woman, no one dared to recognize her.

Is this what the Wu family meant by premature birth discomfort and the need for rest?
Wang Manzhi not only lost a layer of skin, but also a layer of flesh. Even skin and bones are better than her!
Several notoriously gossipy women in the family compound didn't dare to ask, for fear of blowing someone off their guard with one breath.

Outsiders couldn't bear it, and the disgust on Old Mrs. Wu's face seemed inappropriate.

"You still remember to come back. I thought you treated the hospital as your home!"

In other words, she doesn't have to pay for it herself, otherwise there will be even more unpleasant words waiting for her.

Wang Manzhi seemed even colder than before. She remained indifferent to whatever the old woman said, and ignored Zheng Aimei who sent her back.

The others looked at each other, as if something was strange.

Family disgrace must never be made public, especially when it involves Wu Aiju. Zheng Aimei helped Wang Manzhi walk inside, while still trying to disperse the onlookers.

The title of division commander's wife was still useful, and the encirclement gradually dissipated.

Lu Youyou turned a deaf ear to what was happening outside until Qiu came knocking on the door and she learned that Wang Manzhi had been discharged from the hospital.

The little girl grunted as she lifted up the net bag in her hand, which contained malted milk and a dozen oranges.

"Aunt Lu, Mom asked me to thank you and Uncle Gu on her behalf."

It took Lu Youyou a while to remember what there was to thank Wang Manzhi for.

On the day of the accident, Gu Qingye had someone push the cart to the door, and that night no one was taking care of Qiu, so she brought a meal to the little girl, and there seemed to be nothing else.

It can't be that he is thanking her for setting a trick on Wu Weimin, right?

"Your mother..." Lu Youyou paused and swallowed her words. The little girl's eyes were already red, and it was obvious that the situation must be very bad.

But has Wang Manzhi finally figured it out? Has she remembered that she has a sensible daughter?
Apart from sighing, Lu Youyou didn't know what to say.

Being a woman always has a lot of difficulties. It's good for both Wang Manzhi and Qiu Qiu that she can figure it out.

"Little deer, are you... Yo, autumn is here?"

Wang Jinglian was halfway through her words when she immediately switched from gossiping to caring mode.

Autumn smiled shyly, said hello and ran away.

Wang Jinglian looked at her frail figure and sighed three times, a rare occurrence. Before she began to tell the story, she couldn't help but sigh again: "Oh! How pitiful!"

Before Lu Youyou could respond, Wang Jinglian had already told her the whole story of the "big event" she had heard.
