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

Chapter 336 Comrade Lu, it seems you have guests at your home.
Knowing that Lu Youyou was pregnant with twins, Gu Qingye's book of precautions for pregnant women grew thicker at a visible speed.

To maintain sufficient exercise, he would take Lu Youyou to school every morning, walk with her from the school gate to the office building, and then pick her up in the evening.

Every day, the two can be seen walking side by side on the Tsinghua University campus, and Lu Youyou's students are always at the forefront of gossip.

Anyone who has taken her class would find it hard not to wonder if this excessively young and beautiful teacher has a boyfriend, is married, and if so, who her husband is, how old he is, and what he looks like...

With Gu Qingye's appearance, everything was settled. No matter the height, appearance, or temperament, there was not a single flaw to be found. From any angle, they were a match made in heaven.

The project team members and students were more familiar with Lu Youyou, and they spoke more casually. For example, Duan Mingjuan blurted out "Grandmaster" after learning Gu Qingye's identity.

Lu Youyou laughed at that moment; the term "Master" seemed to have aged Gu Qingye by twenty years out of nowhere.

When Lu Youyou talked about this when she got home that night, she couldn't help but laugh. "Master's wife" was in her early twenties and was in her prime, while "Master's husband" was already an old man over thirty.

The older man wasn't angry. He just hugged and kissed his pregnant wife repeatedly. He couldn't prove he wasn't old at all right now, but that was okay. He'd pay her back after the baby was born.

As time went by, Lu Youyou's belly was still much smaller than that of other twin pregnancies. By the time she was four months pregnant, very few people at school knew she was pregnant.

Lin Nanxing was very worried that there might be problems with the fetus's development, so she paid close attention to every prenatal checkup.

Subsequent ultrasounds revealed increasingly clear images: the two fetuses were positioned vertically, both had posterior placentas, and both babies were developing healthily and were within the normal size range.

Lu Youyou's belly was still smooth as jade, without a single stretch mark. The doctor who examined her was amazed at how well her belly had developed.

Aside from being a little sleepy and not as energetic as before, Lu Youyou was fine, but the deans of the two colleges were terrified and strongly urged her to suspend her undergraduate courses for a semester.

Lu Youyou thought about it briefly and agreed. Her due date was in April of next year, and the twins might be premature. She really wouldn't be able to attend classes next semester.

And so, the winter break arrived peacefully, and now it was finally clear that she was pregnant.

Her limbs weren't particularly fat, and her belly was only slightly larger than that of a normal single pregnancy. She looked radiant and supple, like the soft halo on a pearl.

Gu Qingye was on vacation at home that day. He got up in the morning and took Lu Youyou out for a half-hour walk, and bought some groceries along the way.

On my way home, I passed by the breakfast shop at the entrance of the alley. The busy young woman inside greeted us with a smile, "Comrade Lu, out for a walk? Oh, the chicken you bought today is really good. Is this an old hen?"

"Yes, I'm preparing to make soup," Lu Youyou replied with a smile.

The young woman looked at the two with envy. She had lived here for many years, and ever since Lu Youyou and Gu Qingye moved in, they had become the focus of everyone's attention in the alley.

Young and promising, a loving couple, one a university professor and the other a team leader, they are truly flawless.

In the past, some people brought up the fact that the couple didn't have children, especially during the two years Lu Youyou went abroad, when some people secretly speculated that she might not come back.

Some people have even thought about Gu Qingye's "future." Although he was abandoned and became a divorced man, he is tall, good-looking, and has a top-notch job, making him a sought-after candidate for remarriage.

The gossipy women waited and waited, but they never got a single piece of gossip. Then Lu Youyou came back, and then she got pregnant. The couple became even more loving than before.

The young woman glanced at her husband, who was busy at the chopping board, and smiled slightly. Everyone has their own destiny. She didn't crave a glamorous life; she was content with this simple existence.

Seeing that the two were about to walk away, she immediately looked up and called out, "Comrade Lu, it seems you have guests. There's a car parked in front of your house." "I know, thank you, sister-in-law."

"Hey, you're welcome, you're welcome."

Gu Qingye led Lu Youyou slowly back.

"They must have arrived."

"Didn't you say you'd come at noon? Why are you here so early?"

"I don't know, let's take it slow, no rush."

Last night, Gu Bohuai called and said that Gu Hongying wanted to visit her sister-in-law. He asked if the two of them were free, as he had just bought some things for Lu Youyou and was bringing them over as well.

Lu Youyou didn't care. She didn't have any ill feelings towards Gu Hongying. That girl wasn't like her mother and brother, and she didn't mind getting to know her.

Gu Bohuai's car was parked in front of the courtyard house. Upon seeing the two of them, he and Gu Hongying got out of the car together.

Gu Hongying's hair was shorter than before, and her skin tone had darkened, making her look even more dashing.

She came running over with a bright smile: "Big brother and sister-in-law, it's been a long time! I've heard from my dad that your wife is pregnant, and I've been wanting to come and see her, but unfortunately I don't have the time off."

Gu Hongying was in the army and had occasionally met Gu Qingye over the past few years. Although she hadn't been able to realize her dream of becoming a female soldier in the military, she had worked hard to pass the military academy selection and went to study in another city. She only had time to come back now that she was on winter vacation.

Her gaze toward Gu Qingye remained unchanged, filled with undiminished admiration, and she looked at Lu Youyou with almost the same expression.

Even if she gets into military academy, she is still worlds apart from being a top student. She admires capable people the most. She used to admire her father, and now she also admires her older brother and sister-in-law.

Lu Youyou smiled and said, "Hello, sorry to keep you waiting, please come in."

Gu Bohuai called Gu Qingye to help him get the things. The trunk was packed full. He had come several times before, and each time he had more things than the last.

Lu Youyou opened the courtyard gate and, as expected, saw the two gatekeepers in their respective positions.

Little Grey and Chasing Wind flanked Lu Youyou without moving, but when it was Gu Hongying and Gu Bohuai's turn, they couldn't move.

They examined everything like a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner takes a pulse, going through each of the four diagnostic methods—observation, auscultation, inquiry, and palpation—before finally letting him go, even scrutinizing the gifts he brought.

The word "barely" is used because Chasing Wind followed behind the two like a prison guard, while Little Grey flew to a high place to keep a close eye on their every move, ready to pounce at any moment if anything seemed amiss.

Gu Bohuai was already used to it. The previous times he came, it was the same. The eagle and the dog followed him everywhere. Even if he was the introducer for Little Grey's four cubs' enrollment, it was useless. Comrade Lu Grey was impartial and incorruptible. No matter who you were, he would keep an eye on you.

Gu Hongying was no longer calm; she had never seen anything like this before.

She had seen many military dogs, and Gu Bohuai had briefly mentioned Little Grey's glorious deeds, but the scene before her still shocked her.

She even saw a hint of tactical coordination in the way Zhui Feng and Xiao Hui Hui worked together!

Do even animals in the homes of war heroes have to possess military skills?
