Chapter 91 Bottle, you've been wronged.
Chapter 91 Bottle, you've been wronged.
There is no suspense.
Gu Juncheng stood beside Lin Qingping, his brows slightly furrowed, and looked at her with sharp eyes, making Lu Meizhi feel utterly ashamed.
Lu Meizhi covered her face with her hands and ran away.
Gu Youlian rushed over upon receiving the news and yelled at Lu Meizhi's retreating figure, "Where did this shameless woman come from! My brother and Pingzi are doing just fine, why are you getting a divorce!"
Then he turned around and took Lin Qingping's hand, "Pingzi, you've been wronged."
As someone fiercely protective of her brother, Gu Youlian felt deeply that this incident had affected her brother's reputation, and she had to clarify things with the people at the factory.
"I don't know where this wicked woman came from! She's ruining my brother's reputation! My brother is a soldier! He guards the border year after year! Even we Pingzi only see him a few times a year, how could he possibly have anything to do with her!" Gu Youlian spoke with conviction, describing how loving Gu Juncheng and Lin Qingping's relationship was.
The people in the factory slowly dispersed, and they all suddenly realized, "Oh, so that's how it is!" They whispered among themselves, saying that the young people these days really have a bad influence.
What else is there to say at this point?
The answer to why Lin Qingping left without saying goodbye is obvious.
Gu Juncheng looked at Lin Qingping, his eyes filled with a lot of emotions.
Lin Qingping glanced at him silently, then turned and left.
But her wrist tightened; he had grabbed it.
There were people coming and going around, and they all stared at the two of them.
At that time, people were still relatively conservative, and people like Lu Meizhi were extremely rare. It was uncommon for couples to be seen pulling and tugging at each other in public.
Lin Qingping looked at her wrist, and Gu Juncheng, feeling embarrassed, withdrew his wrist.
"Ahem..." He coughed, "Um... Comrade Lin Qingping..."
He spoke haltingly for the first time, and also unusually used very formal titles.
"I..." Gu Juncheng hesitated, looking at the people coming and going around him, unable to say anything.
"Never mind, I'm going in." Lin Qingping took out her keys from her pocket. "If you want to go into the dormitory, go by yourself first."
She glanced at his legs and couldn't bear to say anything to him. "I'll bring you lunch later." He was still limping, so she didn't want him to keep walking around.
Gu Juncheng held the keys in his hand and watched helplessly as she returned to the workshop.
Lin Qingping was actually a bit tired. She had been working on math problems all night, so how could she not be exhausted? That's why she looked listless.
However, Gu Juncheng stood there, watching her back for a long time.
When the lunch break bell rang, Lin Qingping and Gu Youlian walked out of the workshop side by side, inviting each other to get lunch, but they saw Xiao Tian standing at the door waiting for them.
"Sister-in-law... Sister-in-law..." Xiao Tian smiled at her, "The regimental commander said that we don't need to get him lunch anymore."
"Where is he eating?" Lin Qingping felt the sun was blinding and she was exhausted.
"He's off on business and told you not to wait for him."
Okay, Lin Qingping was used to his style, and nodded, "What about you? Are you eating in the cafeteria?"
"I'm going to find the regimental commander," Xiao Tian chuckled.
"Okay, let's go then." Lin Qingping and Gu Youlian went to the cafeteria together.
In fact, Lin Qingping felt that Gu Youlian had been acting strangely lately, always asking her to eat together. Why didn't she eat with Du Gen?
"Sister, where's Dugen?" she couldn't help but ask.
Gu Youlian's expression turned sour. "I don't know."
"Did you two have a fight?" Lin Qingping carefully observed Gu Youlian's expression.
"No!" Gu Youlian said no, but her face showed a "yes" expression.
"What happened?"
"Oh dear, let's go eat! I've been starving all morning!" Gu Youlian took her hand and led her to the cafeteria.
Not long after they arrived at the cafeteria, Dugen also arrived, glanced at the two of them, and silently joined another line.
It would be strange if there wasn't a problem!
Lin Qingping's gaze darted back and forth between the two men, who both looked to one side.
Dugan came later, but his group moved faster and reached the window ahead of them.
The cafeteria served spicy braised pork knuckle for lunch today. Gu Youlian loves gnawing on big pork knuckles and had been planning to buy one. However, when she got to Du Gen's place, it was the last one available.
Then, Dugan took the last one.
When it was Gu Youlian's turn, she was dumbfounded and couldn't help but complain to Lin Qingping, "Look at this! Look at this! Who would do something like this?"
Lin Qingping chuckled inwardly.
The two got their food and were about to go back to their dormitory when they saw Dugen waiting for them as soon as they left the cafeteria.
Gu Youlian rolled her eyes and was about to walk over when Du Gen blocked her way and smiled at them.
In his lunchbox, there were two shiny pieces of pork knuckle, so bright they were almost blinding.
Lin Qingping smiled and said, "I'm very sleepy today, I'm going back to my dorm to sleep."
"Don't!"
Now, the two of them spoke in unison.
Lin Qingping smiled as she looked at the two of them.
Gu Youlian said, "Wait for me, I'll go with you!"
Dugen said, "Bottle, this is the last pork knuckle. I was afraid that if others bought it, you wouldn't be able to get it, so I just bought it myself. Here you go. My chopsticks and bowl are clean."
As he spoke, he reached for a piece of food in Lin Qingping's lunchbox.
Lin Qingping: ? ? ?
Is it for her? Isn't this obviously asking her to give it to Gu Youlian again? She doesn't have any obsession with pork knuckles!
Dugan didn't say much, just gave it to them and left.
"What should we do?" Lin Qingping held out her lunchbox. "I don't like to eat this."
Gu Youlian glared at her, "Who told you to pay attention to him? You picked him up, so eat it yourself!"
Of course, in the end, the braised pork knuckle ended up in Gu Youlian's bowl. Lin Qingping carried the food up to the dormitory building with her. She couldn't help but ask curiously, "Sister, you and your husband don't talk to each other, but you still live in the same dormitory, right? Except for last night when your husband went to stay at a hotel, you didn't apply for an extra dormitory room!"
Gu Youlian snorted a few times, "He sleeps on the floor."
"You two are actually fighting? What's the reason?"
Gu Youlian was unwilling to talk about it.
In the afternoon, Du Gen quietly came to ask her if Gu Youlian had eaten the braised pork knuckle. Only then did Lin Qingping ask Du Gen in detail what had happened.
Dugen sighed, "I don't know if money is a good thing or not. Before we had money, the family was harmonious. Now that we have some money, everyone is arguing with each other."
"So, what happened?"
Dugan hesitated for a moment before explaining the reason.
It turned out that Du Gen's mother had taken all the money that Du Gen and his wife had earned during this period and given it to her brother and sister. Her reason was that they had agreed to acknowledge her son, and she had even kowtowed to him, but then she reneged. She had also agreed to hire several young people from her family to work in the factory, but she refused to do so either. What could she do? She was deeply hurt.
Dugen was a filial son. His mother cried and begged him to manage her money, and he had no choice but to hand it all over.
Even now, Dugen is still saying, "Anyway, I'm an only child, and my mother helps me manage the money, so it will eventually be mine. The relatives are just borrowing money, and I will pay it back later."
