Political Commissar Ye really couldn't control his temper.
"I just want to know what kind of golden branches and jade leaves this is. It actually requires so much, a gift of one thousand yuan? There are so many requirements."
"Oh, please calm down, don't think about it, Gu Shou... the way he is now, it's appropriate for him to have more betrothal gifts."
Political Commissar Ye was angry and helpless. The conditions here were indeed...
Thinking of this, he felt a little melancholy, Gu Jinghong, that was Gu Jinghong, a great hero in the army, a hero who had been personally awarded by the chief. Now the hero is short of breath, and he has to be so humble to get a wife.
"Do you have the girl's photo? Let's show it to the guy first?"
The director still asked Zhao Yumei calmly.
Zhao Yumei was secretly annoyed that she had forgotten this matter. She should have taken a photo of Su Ying and brought it over first.
"I didn't take a photo, but that girl looks pretty good."
The director and the political commissar looked at each other, both feeling helpless. Even though Gu Jinghong was like that now, they still had to check when choosing a wife for him, and they couldn't just accept anyone.
"Then tell us her name. We need to review it here."
Zhao Yumei's face changed. She was a little worried that their investigation would find out about her and Su Jianshe, so she felt that she had to go back quickly and let Su Jianshe get a divorce. If they got divorced, it would have nothing to do with them. people.
"Um, okay, her name is Su Ying. She has always been from the countryside. She just came to Jiangcheng these days..."
After Zhao Yumei left, Political Commissar Ye and the director left the office together, passed through several training grounds, and reached the family courtyard at the back.
When I walked to an independent courtyard, there were two guards at the door. I saluted immediately when I saw them.
"Political commissar, director."
The two returned the gift and walked in together, hands behind their backs.
As soon as he entered the room, the room was filled with coldness. A man was lying on the bed, staring at the ceiling with his eyes wide open. Although he was paralyzed, his eyes were still sharp and his aura was very strong.
Facing him, Political Commissar Ye and Director Du both put on smiles, and their official airs were gone.
"Chief, we have found a suitable person for you. The girl is just twenty years old this year. She looks... not bad, you..."
"Retreat"
With a cold and hoarse voice, the man slowly turned his head to look at the two of them.
"Do you know how old I am?"
The two looked at each other and knew that they knew and understood the chief's concerns. Director Ye said quickly.
"Chief, although you are thirty years old, you have been on the battlefield for the first half of your life, which has delayed your personal issues. In our team, let alone thirty, even getting married at forty is normal. That girl is the same. If you are willing, there should be someone beside you who understands both cold and hot."
As soon as he finished speaking, he noticed that the man's eyes were like knives. He stiffened his neck and silently took a step back.
Director Du saw that Political Commissar Ye was too timid to speak, so he carefully considered his words before speaking in a low voice.
"Chief, that girl is from a rural area. We don't know her specific situation yet, but we have sent people to investigate. You really can't go on like this anymore. You must have a caring person beside you to take care of her."
"intimate?"
The man's voice was still cold, but there was a bit of self-deprecation in this indifference.
"Do you think being my wife will make you considerate? Will you not dislike her?"
Both the director and the political commissar were silent. They didn't know this. They didn't mind it. They could take care of the chief personally, but they also had a lot of work to do every day and couldn't always come to wash the chief's clothes and wipe his body.
"Stop harming other girls. Just retreat. I don't need to find a wife. You all go and do your work."
The two of them stood there and refused to leave. They really felt sorry for the chief. They had replaced several guards for the chief before. Either they were driven away by the chief, or they were driven away by themselves because of lack of dedication. Now this person next to the chief...
well……
Although the two of them were afraid that this person would get angry, they had to resist the pressure no matter what they said. They would definitely marry the chief a wife. Even if it was expensive and the demands were many, she still had to marry her. As long as she was truly willing and could take care of others. Just fine.
But when Su Ying's review report was delivered, the two of them were worried again.
Slutty, lazy, contradicting elders, these words are piled up, can it still be a good thing?
Director Du finally found an advantage in Su Ying's pile of information, which was that she was doing well in school, but she didn't get into college this year.
"Maybe you didn't pass the exam and you want to work in the city?"
Su Ying didn't know that someone was investigating her. She had just rented an adobe house in the north of the city. Three families lived in this house. She and Chen Shuyun rented one for five yuan a month. The mother and daughter took the package with them. , moved in after checking out the guest house.
In the evening, Chen Shuyun cleaned the house inside and out, and looked at the wooden bed with some worry.
"We don't even have bedding, so we'll just spend the night covered with clothes."
She was mainly worried about Su Ying. She was very picky when she was in the village and the quilts were all covered with thick cotton. Now that she had hurt her head, she was afraid that she would be uncomfortable.
Su Ying found some clothes from the package and spread them flatly on the bed.
"Mom, it's not cold now, so let's sleep covered in clothes. I'll go out to find a job tomorrow. Let's stabilize first and make money first.
"Looking for a job? Mom will go find it while you rest at home."
Su Ying took another package and used it as a pillow. It felt okay when she put it on it. It was quite soft and she didn't have a headache.
"I also have to work. I can't support me by you alone. How much money do you have now?"
Chen Shuyun rummaged through the pocket sewn on her long johns for a long time, and took out several pieces of money, some in small pieces and some in whole. Su Ying picked them up and counted them, and there were actually 83 yuan, 6 cents and 5 cents. Chen Shuyun had paid more than 93 yuan for two months' rent before that.
"Mom, your money..."
"While we were away, mom rented the old sow to Erdan's mother for fifty yuan."
The old sow could produce two litters of piglets a year, which cost more than fifty yuan. Su Ying could see that she was feeling regretful and felt that her family had suffered a loss.
Chen Shuyun smiled.
"We're going out, and we don't know when we'll be back. There's no one to feed the pig at home. Someone will take care of it if we rent it out."
In fact, she wanted to take Su Ying back to the village, but Su Ying said she wanted to stay, and since Su Jianshe was here, the family wanted to be together.
Su Ying asked Chen Shuyun to look around the house and ask if anyone was hiring. If not, go home and wait for her. She took the tram and went to Jiangcheng Pharmaceutical Factory.
This place is far away from the city, and the factory looks quite large. Standing at the door, you can smell the unique smell of the pharmaceutical factory.
