1970s: Hot wife accompanies the army, cold-faced rough man is not easy to tease

Chapter 210 Don’t even think about taking a penny away (asking for monthly tickets~)

Du Shuang calmed his expression and went forward to meet him.

"You're back. Have you eaten yet?"

Gu Hongying couldn't believe it. Did her mother hear it or not? Why would her mother be so kind?

She quietly took a few steps, walked behind Du Shuang, and winked at Gu Bohuai behind her back.

Gu Bohuai smiled and nodded. Since he had agreed, he would not change his mind.

Gu Hongying breathed a sigh of relief and immediately said, "Dad, Mom, I'll go upstairs then."

It was not a good place to stay for long. If her mother came to her senses, she didn't want to hear those clichés.

Du Shuang's mind was full of Song Jinshu and Gu Qingye, and she really didn't hear what the father and daughter said.

She didn't know whether Gu Bohuai had noticed Gu Qingye's existence. She didn't dare to ask, not even to hint at it.

It was indeed Mr. Du who had the foresight to promote Gu Bohuai to his team. However, it has been almost twenty years since the old man passed away, and Gu Bohuai has still made it to where he is today, and is even more promising than his own son Du Guanghan. This shows his ability and character.

After so many years of marriage, Du Shuang didn't dare to say that she knew exactly what he was thinking.

But now she has a sense of urgency. Gu Qingye wants to investigate, and she cannot give up the benefits that Gu Yuanzheng deserves.

"Old Gu, I want to discuss something with you."

"what's up?"

Gu Bohuai changed into slippers and entered the house. Just as he was about to pour some water, Du Shuang had already brought him a cup of wolfberry and chrysanthemum tea that was just right for him to drink.

"Look, I ran into Zhou Aihua from the General Administration of Culture and Sports' Cultural Troupe a few days ago, and we happened to be talking about children. I thought Yuanzheng was about the same age, so why don't we have a meal together so the two children can meet each other?"

Gu Bohuai put down his teacup. "Zhou Aihua? The lover of Qi Hewei, the deputy director and general manager?"

"Yes, Zhou Aihua and I have known each other for many years. I also watched her little daughter grow up under my care. She is one year older than Yuanzheng, so I can take care of him and control his temper."

Gu Bohuai looked at Du Shuang, and it only took a few seconds for her to feel uneasy.

Du Shuang quickly reviewed what she had said and found nothing wrong, so she continued, "What's wrong? The Gu and Qi families are a good match, wouldn't it be nice to marry them?"

Gu Bohuai did not respond.

Not long after he was promoted to the second-in-command of the General Staff, he immediately arranged to marry the director and deputy director of the General Staff?

Others would not think that this was a friendship between two families, but would only say that Gu Bohuai was forming cliques before he even had a stable seat.

He knew his son's character very well. Gu Bohuai was not afraid of self-deprecation. He had been busy with work and had not educated his son well.

A grown man is not even one tenth as ambitious as Hongying.

If his last name was not Gu and he was not the grandson of the Du family, Gu Yuanzheng would be no different from an idle vagrant on the street, and achieving nothing would be his best fate.

Gu Bohuai had never seen the daughter of the Qi family, but Du Shuang was so picky that she would not mention anything other than the best.

She is willing to marry, but is the other party willing to marry her? If the marriage is a mess, it will not only make the marriage more harmonious but also create enemies.

"The Gu family doesn't need to trade their children's marriages for benefits, nor do they need the so-called equal status. The Qi family is not a good match."

Gu Bohuai had considered his son's marriage, and his best choice was the daughter of an old subordinate.

He told Du Shuang his considerations, but before he finished listening, his nails had already left several bloody marks on his palm.

She couldn't help but think elsewhere.

Did Gu Bohuai already know about Gu Qingye's existence?
Is he afraid that the expedition will block his way, so he deliberately doesn't want a daughter-in-law of equal status?
If Yuanzheng's marriage is cancelled, then what will happen in the future? Will the entire Gu family be handed over to Gu Qingye?

Du Shuang tried her best to endure, but the fire in her heart grew more and more intense.

She didn't want to hear any reasons. She believed that Yuanzheng must have a capable relative-in-law. Everything in the Gu family belonged to her son, and no one could take away a single cent!
Gu Hongying's marriage couldn't be neglected either; she had to find someone who could help her, so she could have more support during the expedition. Du Shuang tried to calm herself down. She had lived with Gu Bohuai for twenty years and knew that stubbornness would lead to nowhere.

But one thing she was very clear about was that Gu Bohuai respected the child's wishes.

He agreed to Gu Hongying's swordplay. If Yuan Zheng and the daughter of the Qi family got together, Gu Bohuai would surely not break them up.

After figuring out the situation, Du Shuang put the matter aside.

--------

early February

It coincided with the registration of the first batch of freshmen after the resumption of the college entrance examination, and the Huaqing campus had not been so lively for a long time.

Lu Youyou completed the registration process and went to the dormitory building carrying her simple luggage.

She has already registered as a day student, but her bed is still reserved.

In her previous life, she had never attended university in China, nor had she lived in a dormitory. Even though she was mentally prepared, she was still stunned for a few seconds after pushing open the door.

Five people have already arrived at the six-person dormitory, but that's not the point. In the small room, a woman in her thirties is holding a crying child and trying to comfort him.

"Daya, don't cry, don't cry, did I hurt you? It's Mommy's fault..."

The sunlight cast a long shadow from behind Lu Youyou, and the light dimmed. Everyone turned around in unison and saw Lu Youyou at the door, with the same expression.

There was no dusty look, no panting from carrying luggage upstairs. Lu Youyou's radiant appearance was different from all the freshmen they had met along the way.

There was no trace of confusion, timidity or curiosity in her eyes, as if she was not stepping into a completely unknown world.

"Hello everyone, I'm Lu Youyou."

After Lu Youyou greeted him, her eyes fell on the only empty bed in the room.

The bumpy wooden boards and the rusty and paint-chipped bed frame looked like no one had lived there for over a decade.

At this moment, the person on the upper bunk happened to move, and the creaking sound was so painful that it made people's teeth ache.

Lu Youyou sighed in her heart. She had never suffered in her previous life, and she didn't want to suffer in this life either.

I had been thinking of coming here occasionally to take a nap, but it seems the library is more suitable for her.

"Hello, Comrade Lu. We have already cleaned your bunk. You can just put your bedding on it."

The girl in the next bed stood up to say hello. She was half a head taller than her, and her Northeastern accent sounded very familiar.

"Thank you." Lu Youyou thanked with a smile.

Seeing someone break the ice first, the remaining people also came over to say hello, except for the one on the upper bunk.

Lu Youyou knew what role this fashionable "young lady" played at a glance.

He is arrogant and looks down on others. His family either has some power or some money.

It seems that every big drama cannot be without such a person.

The woman in her thirties finally coaxed the child, took two steps forward and started to apologize.

"I'm sorry, Comrade Lu. I was packing up and accidentally hit the child. Daya is usually very sensible and rarely cries. I'm really sorry!"

She took out a bag of dried fruits and handed it to Lu Youyou, with a look of panic on her face.

"My name is Liu Peirong, and this is my daughter. From now on, she...she will live in the dormitory with me. I will definitely keep an eye on her and try not to let her disturb you. If it causes any inconvenience, I apologize in advance."

As she spoke, Liu Peirong bowed deeply.

It’s the end of the month, I’m asking for a wave of monthly tickets, thank you all!!! Kiss, hug and lift up high, muah muah muah muah!!!
