Chapter 86 Sudden bad news

Time flies so fast, and it’s already autumn in a blink of an eye.

On the last day of September, just after breakfast, Zhao Ye got on his bicycle and headed towards Jichun with Gao Xiaoqin on his back.

On the way, Gao Xiaoqin, who was sitting in the back like a little daughter-in-law, suddenly asked: "Hey, do you think I should go and see off Zhou Rong?"

Thinking of the complicated relationship between the three of them, Zhao Ye tactfully advised: "Forget it. Didn't you say that your Uncle Liu asked someone to bring you a message, asking you to go back as soon as possible? Maybe there is something urgent."

Gao Xiaoqin thought about it, but she still complained: "What a mistake, why didn't I say more at that time and ask which school Zhou Rong would be assigned to? Now it's better, after all the detours, she actually went there

Jiang Da, isn't this the same as returning to Jichun from Wujiatun?"

This was the first time Gao Xiaoqin had nagged her since the admission notice came out. Although Zhao Ye had already developed immunity, he still found it funny.

"Why, do you still want to send someone two thousand miles away?"

After hearing Zhao Ye's joke, Gao Xiaoqin became even more angry: "Zhou Rong and I have no grievances, why do we do this? After all, it's not because of you, but it's good for you that you didn't warn me in advance and just watched it.

, I lifted a stone and smacked my own foot."

Zhao Ye shouted that he was wronged: "You're here again. I've explained it to you, why don't you believe it?"

"Young Master, who are you, Zhao Ye? How could such a cunning and cunning person not think of such a thing? I think you are clearly planning to hug me from both sides!"

Zhao Ye slowed down his movements and turned his head to try to reason with Gao Xiaoqin: "I really don't know the recommendation process, otherwise I would definitely tell you. Also, what do you mean I want to hug you, but you can't accuse someone of their innocence out of thin air.

Ah! Even if I take a step back, if I really have this intention, will you agree to it, or will Zhou Rong agree? "

"Humph, you think so!"

"It's over now, so what are you worried about? Jiang Da is not on vacation in Jichun, but after all, there is some distance from Wujiatun, so it's better than you two being in the same place!"

"After all, it's all your fault. You said you had nothing to do and why did you provoke Zhou Rong? I used to have a good relationship with her, but now it's embarrassing for everyone."

As soon as Zhao Ye heard this, he knew that he had made a mistake, that is, he should not reason with a woman, especially a woman who was in love.

After realizing this, he immediately stopped expressing any opinions on the matter. Whenever Gao Xiaoqin talked about it, he would always hum and haha ​​and deal with it casually.

Sure enough, when Gao Xiaoqin saw that Zhao Ye still refused to continue the conversation, she felt it was quite boring, so she took the initiative to ignore the topic and talked about something else.

While talking and laughing like this, the two people quickly arrived at the end of the field, placed Gao Xiaoqin at the door of the city courtyard, and watched her go in. Zhao Ye then returned to the optical film.

Zhou family.

Seeing that Zhao Ye had finally arrived, Zhou Rong, who had already packed up, habitually complained: "What time is it already? You have to come a little later, just in time for dinner."

Zhao Yepo poured a bowl of cold water into his stomach, poured it into his stomach and burped, and then said calmly: "I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry, do you understand? Anyway, there is only half a month to register, so I won't go tomorrow at all."

"

Zhou Rong wanted to say something more, but Li Suhua stood up and smoothed things over: "Okay Rong'er, stop bickering with Xiao Ye, it's more important to do business!"

After talking about her daughter, she asked Zhao Ye: "Xiaoye, how did your aunt do with the things you asked her to do?"

"Don't worry, Auntie, it's been done long ago!"

Zhao Ye patted his chest, handed the bills he had prepared in advance to Li Suhua, and added: "Fifty pounds of food stamps, all of which are fine grains. In addition, I have also prepared some other tickets. Auntie, please take a look.

"

Li Suhua just flipped through it casually, showing a look of satisfaction, and even praised Zhou Rong: "I said Xiaoye is a careful kid, look at it, in addition to food stamps, there are also towel stamps, candy

Tickets, soap tickets, shoe tickets, clothes tickets, it’s really complete, some of which I didn’t even expect.”

Zhou Rong was obviously very beautiful in her heart, but she said harshly: "Mom, please stop praising her. If you continue to praise her, someone's tail will be raised to the sky!"

"You kid!" Li Suhua shook her head, too lazy to argue with her daughter anymore, and turned to Zhao Ye for advice: "Then why should we set off now?"

Zhao Ye nodded and was about to get up and go out when he suddenly noticed that Zhou Bingkun was not there and couldn't help but feel a little strange: "Where's Bingkun? Didn't he come to see off Zhou Rong?"

Zhou Rong answered this question for her mother: "Today is his first day at the soy sauce factory, so I didn't let him deliver it."

Li Suhua said: "I don't know what Kun'er thinks, but I would say that the job in the lumber factory is pretty good. There is no need to change it. Isn't this just messing around!"

After hearing that Li Suhua didn't know about Zhou Bingkun's job loss, Zhao Ye couldn't help but look at Zhou Rong with a half-smiling look on his face.

Zhou Rong rolled her eyes at him angrily, and then followed Li Suhua's words and said, "What's so good? Kun'er works as an unloader in a lumber factory and walks around carrying wood thicker than her waist every day. Don't you feel bad?

You? Anyway, I, as a sister, can’t tolerate it."

"Is Cai Xiaoguang reliable? Don't lose the watermelon and pick up the sesame seeds instead of losing both ends."

"Just put your heart back into your stomach. Cai Xiaoguang has promised me that he will ask someone to arrange a decent and easy job, and he will never lose Kun'er."

"That's good, let's go then."

Zhao Ye, who was watching all this, saw Zhou Rongshi's natural look when he summoned Cai Xiaoguang, and couldn't help but sigh again: "Licking a dog has no human rights!"

Turning his eyes to the other side, after Gao Xiaoqin said goodbye to Zhao Ye, he came to a two-story foreign-style building deep in the city compound. He was about to raise his legs to step up to the door, but something happened in his eyes.

Suddenly I saw a military green Jeep parked next to the flower bed on the left.

After walking over and observing the car for a while, Gao Xiaoqin endured her doubts and entered the living room on the first floor. She asked the middle-aged woman who was sitting on the sofa reading a newspaper: "Aunt Wang, that car at the door?"

Whose car is it? Why does it look like a military vehicle to me?"

The Aunt Wang mentioned by Gao Xiaoqin, whose surname is Wang Minglan, is the lover of Liu Guofu, Gao's father's friend. Both husband and wife work in the Jichun Municipal Party Committee, Liu Guofu is the executive deputy director, and Wang Lan is the second-in-command of the Education Committee.

Gao Xiaoqin asked Wang Lan to handle Zhou Rong's matter earlier.

Since Liu Guofu and Gao's father were former comrades-in-arms and had a fatal friendship on the battlefield, and the couple only had three sons and had always wanted a daughter but could not get one, they entrusted Gao Xiaoqin to their friend.

He always treats his children as his own, and even his own children sometimes have to stay away.

As soon as she saw her coming back, Wang Lan immediately put down the newspaper in her hand and asked in a friendly and caring manner: "Xiao Qin is back. Is it hot on the road?"

Before Gao Xiaoqin could answer, Wang Lan seemed to have thought of something. She stood up and walked towards the kitchen, saying, "Someone gave your Uncle Liu a watermelon a while ago. I kept it specially for you."

Gao Xiaoqin followed Wang Lan and asked him the question again while thanking him.

Wang Lan glanced at Gao Xiaoqin with a smile, and said mysteriously: "Aunt Rong, let's keep it quiet. We'll talk about this later. Let's eat the watermelon first and see if it's sweet."

Gao Xiaoqin originally asked this question casually on a whim, but now she got this answer, which only aggravated her curiosity to the point where the watermelon no longer felt sweet in her mouth.

After gnawing two pieces of melon absent-mindedly, Gao Xiaoqin couldn't help but wanted to ask again, when she heard a familiar voice coming from the second floor. She looked up and saw that it was Liu Guofu walking in front.

Following closely behind him was a young man in military uniform.

When she saw the person's appearance clearly, she stood up suddenly and said in disbelief: "Brother, is it you?"

Gao Xiaoqin did not admit her mistake. This man was indeed her eldest brother, Gao Mingze, the eldest son of the Gao family.

Gao Mingze was also ecstatic when he heard his sister's voice. He rushed down the stairs as fast as flying. The brother and sister hugged each other tightly, unable to control themselves with excitement.

After a long time, Gao Mingze took the lead to calm down. While patting his sister's back to comfort him, he smiled and joked: "You are now a big girl, why are you still crying like you were when you were a child? You are not afraid of Uncle Liu and Aunt Wang's jokes."

Gao Xiaoqin said dullly: "I'm happy to see you. Besides, Uncle Liu and Aunt Wang won't laugh at me."

Wang Lan continued: "Yes, your Uncle Liu and I will not laugh at you, but if you keep crying like this, Mingze's clothes should be washed. Mingze, have you brought a change of clothes?"

After hearing this, Gao Xiaoqin finally stopped crying, broke away from Gao Mingze's arms, and asked immediately: "Brother, why did you come back to Jichun at this time?"

Gao Mingze took Gao Xiaoqin and sat opposite Liu Guofu and his wife, held his sister's hand and explained:

"This year's recruitment is not starting again. It happens that the deputy commander of our army who came to Jiangliao to pick up the troops is our father's old subordinate, so I asked him to take me with him and come back to see you."

"How long can you stay?"

"The mission is very tight and I have to leave the day after tomorrow."

Gao Xiaoqin looked disappointed: "Ah, the time is so short. I have a lot to say to my elder brother!"

Liu Guofu, who had been sitting silently by the side, spoke up: "Haha, Xiaoqin can't bear to let go of my brother! It doesn't matter, uncle tells you, there will be many opportunities for you brother and sister to meet in the future!"

Gao Xiaoqin looked at Liu Guofu confused and asked, "Uncle Liu, what does this mean?"

Liu Guofu said to Gao Mingze: "Silly girl, what do you mean by asking? Do you say it or do I say it?"

Gao Mingze said with a smile: "It's all thanks to Uncle Liu that this happened, so naturally it's up to you to do the talking."

"You kid, no one can say that they are all the same!" Even so, Liu Guofu still did his duty and told Gao Xiaoqin.

"That's what happened. Didn't your brother just say that Captain Zhang, who is in charge of receiving the troops this time, is your father's old subordinate. He is also my comrade. When he first joined the army, I was his

Platoon leader.

This time he came to Jichun and came to visit me specially. I told him that you wanted to be a soldier. He didn't say anything. He patted his chest and said: I'll take care of it. The old leader's daughter wants to be a soldier.

We can still ignore it. Tell me, is this a great good thing? When you and your eldest brother are in the same army in the future, won’t it be easy to meet each other? "

After listening to this, Gao Xiaoqin felt her head buzzing and said insincerely: "But where are my parents..."

Before she could finish her sentence, Liu Guofu waved his hand: "Don't worry about this matter. We will find a way. You can just follow your brother the day after tomorrow."

Having such a good thing happen to him may be great news to others, but all Gao Xiaoqin can think about at the moment is Zhao Ye. What should he do?

Regardless of the fact that the two were already married, Gao Xiaoqin couldn't let go of the relationship between them. After hesitating for a while, she tentatively asked: "Uncle Liu, can I bring someone with me?"

As soon as these words came out, the three people in the living room were all surprised. Gao Mingze couldn't help but stood up, pointed at his sister and asked: "Xiaoqin, please tell me clearly, who is the person you want to bring?"

Who has it to do with you?"

Facing the anger from her brother, Gao Xiaoqin was so frightened that she didn't dare to reply. Wang Lan couldn't stand it and stopped Gao Mingze's behavior.
