Chapter 269: Relationship as Solid as a Rock

~15 min read 2,820 words

The emotion in the letter was very aggrieved, Lin Zhao's mouth couldn't help but rise.

Returned to the room, sat down, and picked up a pen to write back.

【... Letter received, felt your intentions, still felt surprised.

You know me, compared to buildings, I do prefer bungalows, not afraid of broken or old, can be repaired, small and no privacy is the most headache-inducing.

Battalion Commander Gu, you did well, the four cubs and I are very satisfied, giving you a thumbs up from far away.

You silently did all this, considering our family, considering our reunion, how could I be angry with you because of those inexplicable people?

Distance cannot affect us, others' nonsense even less so, how firm you are, that's how firm I am...】

Half a month later, Gu Chenghuai, who received the letter, couldn't stop his mouth from rising, the whole person like a spring breeze.

Sun Yeli hadn't asked yet, he took the initiative: "Look, I said my wife is the most understanding and the smartest, those demons and monsters can't shake our feelings."

Gu Chenghuai raised the letter in his hand: "Revolutionary relationship as solid as a rock, that's what it means for me and our family's Comrade Lin."

That "Comrade Lin" was called extremely gently.

Sun Yeli curled his lips: "I haven't seen the letter, what the sister-in-law says is whatever you say."

He hugged his chest, deliberately using a critical and suspicious gaze to measure Gu Chenghuai: "This possibility is quite high. I've seen many, those people are all henpecked husbands like you."

Sun Yeli thought he said this, the comrade-in-arms would definitely take some measures, but he didn't.

"Being afraid of your wife will make you prosperous." Gu Chenghuai's expression was steady.

"Besides..." He had a mouth like it was smeared with poison, smiled slightly, and said: "Isn't being afraid of your wife a kind of happiness, having someone to worry about at all times, unlike some people, who haven't even talked about an object, right?"

Sun Yeli: "..."

What is it!!

Gu Chenghuai walked toward the dormitory slowly, Sun Yeli chased after him: "Gu Chenghuai! This mouth of yours, is it smeared with poison, is it? Don't know how the sister-in-law tolerates you..."

He nagged all the way.

Speaking of which.

Old Lady Lu still discovered Lu Laotou's matter.

Just knowing it, Old Lady Lu was like being struck by lightning, her head blank, her eyes black.

When she reacted, that old face was red.

"You—" she grabbed Lu Laotou's collar with one hand, and scratched his face with the other, "At your age, you still steal food, do you deserve me, you dead old man, shameful thing, you shameful thing, I want to report you!!"

Old Lady Lu was crazy with anger, wishing she could slap this dead old man to death.

"I thought you'd be honest when you were old, didn't expect that most of your body was buried in the soil, and you could still grow flower intestines in your heart, it would be better if you hung on the wall early, you wouldn't have harmed me until today!"

She pulled Lu Laotou and walked out: "Go to the brigade department, I want to send you to parade through the streets."

Hearing this, Su Yuxian, who was also shocked and looking at her father-in-law mockingly, came back to her senses.

Hurried to stop her.

"Mom, can't, this matter can't be made big!"

Old Lady Lu was in a fit of anger, couldn't listen to any words, the daughter-in-law's words clearly made her admit defeat, she swung her arm and slapped her.

Su Yuxian's face was slapped, blood spilled from the corner of her mouth.

Afraid of being impulsive, she clenched her hands into fists, tightly gripping them, only then did she not return it.

"Mom, if you want Baozhen's father to transfer, come back to farm, you go, go now, I absolutely won't stop you."

Old Lady Lu's anger froze on her face.

Lu Laotou took the opportunity to push her away, covered the red mark on his face, pointed at Old Lady Lu and scolded: "Shrew, you shrew, I want to divorce you."

Old Lady Lu picked up the broom and beat him.

"Divorce your mother's immortal board, want to divorce me and be with that widow, right? Think beautifully, ask my son if he agrees?"

"If Yizhou knew that his father was not honest at his age, he would probably hate not having you as a father, you dog-day old beast, sooner or later I'll hang you on the wall."

Old Lady Lu was also afraid that the matter Lu Laotou caused would affect her son, turned around and took a rusty, chipped kitchen knife from the kitchen, and held it to his neck.

"Where is the money in the house? Take it out!"

The knife edge moved forward, threatening.

Lu Laotou's expression changed, his head tilted back, and he said urgently: "Where is there money in the house."

Old Lady Lu slapped him: "Dog thing, did you give all the money in the house to the fox spirit outside?"

"Nonsense, where is there any fox spirit." Lu Laotou didn't admit it.

If it weren't for the old woman being so sure, he wouldn't even want to admit the matter of finding the old widow.

"The money in the house is long gone..."

Lu Laotou was saying, the kitchen knife approached his neck a few points.

"Where is the money in the house? Hand over the money, I can not hold the matter of you finding the fox spirit widow against you, if you don't hand it over, I'll take you to parade through the streets, do you say it or not?"

Old Lady Lu's eyes were red, looking fierce.

Lu Laotou was afraid the old woman would really give him a kitchen knife in a moment of impulse, and hurriedly said: "In the clay pot under the kitchen cutting board."

Old Lady Lu slapped him and rushed into the kitchen to find the money.

After finding it and counting it, she found half was missing, her anger didn't decrease but increased.

"Old immortal."

After scolding, she threw the kitchen knife in her hand to his feet.

"This is not my kitchen knife, I want to see my kitchen knife before tonight, if not, I'll still take you to parade through the streets."

Lu Laotou was startled by her action of throwing the kitchen knife, hurriedly retreated a few steps, staying away from the dangerous person who had no reason.

His anger also rose: "You go, you go, you're not afraid that Yizhou will resent you for ruining his future, you shout, you shout everywhere—"

Old Lady Lu really didn't dare, glared at the dead old man fiercely, and turned back to the room.

There are no secrets in the countryside, and everyone who should know and shouldn't know about this scene that happened in the Lu family knew.

Even Lin Zhao, who stayed at home, heard a little bit.

It was the educated youth who submitted the manuscript and came to thank Lin Zhao who said it.

"... Lu Laotou messing around outside?" Lin Zhao's mind flashed a messy face, who was the other person, really hungry.

Lu Laotou didn't even brush his teeth, let alone bathe, and didn't change his clothes, looking smelly.

The one who could mess around with him, wasn't true love, it was because of Lu Yizhou's allowance. Looking at it, the latter possibility was greater.

"It's true, someone saw it." The quiet and introverted city girl had been in the countryside for a long time, and her personality had become heroic, Educated Youth Guan said: "Lu Laotou patting people's buttocks, this is absolutely true."

"Educated Youth Sun also said, she saw with her own eyes Lu Laotou coming out of the widow's house, in the middle of the night, not messing around, what did he go to that house for in the middle of the night, and still sneaking around."

Educated Youth Guan's whole face was glowing, as if eating melons was more exciting than her newspaper submission.

Lin Zhao looked at her with a smile.

Curiosity is the essence of humanity.

Su Song Zhiqing said: "Old Lady Lu actually forgave him, and didn't make a scene."

"How to make a scene? If it's made a scene, Lu Yizhou's future will be ruined, and if it's more serious, years of struggle will be in vain, directly transferred back to the countryside to farm, of course she doesn't dare to make a scene." Lin Zhao said lightly.

Afraid Old Lady Lu didn't know that someone would climb onto her own chimney to watch the Lu family's fun.

Educated Youth Guan agreed with Lin Zhao: "That's right. Old Lady Lu wanted to send that person to parade through the streets, but Su Yuxian wouldn't agree."

Lin Zhao: Of course she wouldn't agree, Su Yuxian was a lick-dog for several years to marry into the Lu family... just to be an official's wife, no matter what, she would find a way to suppress it.

Su Song Zhiqing complained: "The situation outside is so severe, Lu Laotou actually dared to mess around, he's really bold, not afraid of being reported."

"It's not that he's bold, he knows he won't be reported." Lin Zhao said.

She knew some of the villagers' thoughts: "If there's someone messing around in the brigade, the impact is too big, the villagers will watch the fun, but won't make it big."

Even the cautious ones won't say it if they see it.

Every family has daughters, if there's someone messing around in the brigade, it's the brigade's reputation that's ruined. Not to mention, once a scandal is exposed, the Harvest Brigade won't have a share in the year-end brigade evaluation!

Heard the first place has prizes and certificates.

The Harvest Brigade has engaged in side businesses, almost every month a batch of mushrooms is shipped away, the possibility of winning honors is very high, and all the members are working together!

Whoever destroys their hope is their public enemy!

Su Song Zhiqing understood, nodded her head constantly, her smile very pleasing.

"I heard Su Song Zhiqing and Educated Youth Guan also planted mushrooms, and earned quite a bit, right?" Lin Zhao asked casually.

Su Song Zhiqing laughed: "Not much, earned a hard-earned money."

This is modesty, and earned quite a bit.

Relying on this money, she exchanged for cotton and cloth, made new cotton quilts, and sent them to her parents who were in a difficult situation. Worried that the new cotton quilts were too conspicuous, she found a way to make them look old, only then successfully sending them to their destination.

Su Yi was very grateful to Lin Zhao and the Gu family.

She knew that if it weren't for planting mushrooms, she wouldn't have saved money, and without saving money, she wouldn't have been able to help her parents in the bitter cold place.

"Comrade Lin, thank you." Su Yi said suddenly.

"Hm?" Lin Zhao was confused, "Thank me for what."

"Thank you for not being selfish, taking out the main technology, and also guiding us to write articles." Su Yi said sincerely.

Educated Youth Guan looked at her, lowered her eyes, and didn't speak.

They lived in the same courtyard, although Su Yi deliberately concealed it, she could also find some tricks—the Su family wasn't right.

It wasn't that she hadn't struggled.

People with mistakes in their components really didn't dare to get too close, who knew what trouble it would bring to their own family.

After sending a letter to her family, her heart settled down, and she didn't tell anyone, pretending she didn't know anything.

This is what Father Guan said in his letter—

"You can write to me without taking measures immediately, which shows that you already have the answer in your heart, my child, please follow your heart to make a choice, Dad believes in you.

As for your various concerns, don't worry, we work hard just to support a piece of sky for our children, so that you can say no, can do whatever you want to do, take good care of yourself, hope our family will be reunited soon..."

Seeing Su Yi thanking her so solemnly, and she and Educated Youth Guan brought things when they came, Lin Zhao smiled and said gently: "It's good that I can help you, don't take it to heart, I just moved my mouth."

"It's not easy for you girls to be educated youths, I'm very happy to be able to do my best to make you live more comfortably."

For girls with beautiful qualities, Lin Zhao was always willing to take care of them a little more.

Educated Youth Guan felt that Comrade Lin was really broad-minded and bright, a completely different feeling from the girls in the countryside.

She thought, if Educated Youth Lin lived in the same family building as her, they might become very good friends.

"Comrade Lin, thanks to you, I might be going back to the city soon." This shouldn't be said, but the moment Educated Youth Guan said it, she didn't have a trace of regret.

Su Yi looked up suddenly, full of disbelief.

What?

Did she hear it wrong? Educated Youth Guan is going back to the city, then what about her?!

Lin Zhao wasn't surprised.

The first time she saw Educated Youth Guan, she guessed that the other party wouldn't stay long, afraid she was here to go through the process.

Didn't expect it to be so fast.

"My blessing?" Her eyes were confused, "I don't seem to have helped you much."

Educated Youth Guan raised the newspaper in her hand: "Yes, this, this article on the big newspaper, this is my stepping stone to return to the city, it's very important, with this I can go back, it's indeed thanks to you."

"If it weren't for you helping me, I wouldn't have thought of submitting, and so many opportunities would have slipped through my fingers."

"Comrade Lin, I also want to thank you."

From before the New Year until now, she submitted many, many manuscripts, almost all were returned, when her confidence was constantly collapsing, it was Comrade Lin who gave her encouragement, helped her find problems, find entry points...

"Look at the waste manuscripts in your room, you should know, the one you should thank isn't me, but yourself who keeps trying to write and keeps progressing." Lin Zhao's brows bloomed with a smile, her tone soft, "Congratulations to you, Educated Youth Guan."

"Although I think our brigade is not bad, but I know, you educated youths aren't used to this kind of life, wanting to return to the city every moment. I wish you get what you want, and also wish you a bright future."

Educated Youth Guan's eyes moved slightly, as if bright pearls were flashing.

"Thank you, also hope Comrade Lin everything goes well, forever happy."

Su Yi looked at Educated Youth Guan reluctantly, finally finding her voice, "... When are you leaving?"

After Educated Youth Guan returns to the city, her room will definitely be targeted, she doesn't want to live with difficult people.

"Not yet decided, when it's decided, my father should send me a telegram." Educated Youth Guan said.

The matter of returning to the city, she and her family hadn't communicated yet, but they had a tacit understanding, she believed her father would act when he saw her article on the newspaper.

Indeed as Educated Youth Guan thought, Father Guan was indeed rushing to the post office at this time, the corners of his eyes dyed with smiles, anyone could see his good mood.

He only had such a daughter, sent to the countryside so far away, their whole family couldn't rest easy.

Fortunately, his daughter was promising, writing an article could be on the newspaper, such a high honor, a little operation could get people back.

Really saved him face!!

Su Yi said: "Okay, although I'm very reluctant to part with you, I still wish you everything goes well."

Feeling that Educated Youth Guan's heart was a bit big, she frowned and said: "You shouldn't have said this now, what if I have bad intentions, go out and talk nonsense to stop you from returning to the city?"

Educated Youth Guan's expression was serious, her words showing trust: "You won't, Comrade Lin even less so, I trust you."

After saying this, she smiled again, saying indifferently: "If I misjudged people, I admit it, it's nothing."

Just a bit of trouble, she could still go back.

Lin Zhao interjected: "Thank you for trusting me and Su Song Zhiqing so much."

Educated Youth Guan covered her mouth and laughed, rarely revealing liveliness: "No way, who told you to have a face that looks trustworthy." ===== CHAPTER 270 =====
