Chapter 216 Gu Guoliang Gets into Trouble
Gu Hanchuan scoffed at what he read in the newspaper.
If they really cared, why would they have indulged the mother and daughter for so many years?
If it were the old Gu Hanchuan, he probably wouldn't even have accepted the savings book the old man gave him yesterday.
But Gu Hanchuan is different now. He's married and about to become a father. He also knows that daily life is inseparable from basic necessities, so the more money the better. After all, it's all given by his father. If he doesn't take it, who knows who will benefit in the end?
Thinking about the amount in the savings account, Gu Hanchuan decided to say goodbye to the old man before leaving, lest he really make the old man sick again, and then the whole family would be in trouble.
Gu Dongfang half-closed his eyes and after a long while asked, "When will you be transferred back?"
Gu Hanchuan looked up, his expression nonchalant: "Why transfer back?"
Gu Dongfang's expression turned slightly cold: "You bastard! Do you intend to stay in Zhejiang Province for the rest of your life?"
"It's not impossible!"
"You brat, don't think I can't beat you up!"
Gu Hanchuan remained silent.
If it weren't for his excellent upbringing, he would have really wanted to run away right now.
Gu Dongfang snorted heavily: "I know your wife is studying at university over there. I heard she's very capable, not only getting first place in all her subjects, but also being the prized student of several professors?"
Gu Hanchuan's expression remained unchanged, but his eyes were full of smugness.
"Yes, she has a talent for medicine. Now that she's working under Director Su, if nothing unexpected happens, her main focus should be on cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases."
"She's ambitious; it's quite impressive that she's achieved so much at such a young age."
"Nuan Nuan is indeed very good."
"Then let's wait until she graduates."
Gu Hanchuan remained unmoved: "Let's talk about it later. My connections are all there, so staying a few more years won't be a problem. If all else fails, I'll go to my second uncle's place."
"You're kidding me! Your second uncle's focus is on the Air Force, the Air Force. You're in the Army, what are you doing getting involved?"
“I can try doing it from the paratroopers.”
"Do you believe I'll beat you up?!"
The old man didn't take this seriously. After all, Gu Hanchuan was quite outstanding in the combat unit, and given his current achievements and age, it was impossible for him to train in parachuting anymore.
Finally, the old man asked Gu Hanchuan to come into his study with him. When Gu Hanchuan left, the old man stood by the window and watched him with a complicated expression.
Everyone knows that the old man's study has many good things, such as some calligraphy and paintings or tea sets that he collected in the past.
But for various reasons, these valuable items were either hidden away or voluntarily handed over.
Wang Qinya sat on the sofa in the living room and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Gu Hanchuan had come out empty-handed.
She was terrified of that boy.
Even when Gu Hanchuan was still a child, she was afraid to face him.
Unexpectedly, after so many years, this kid has become even more imposing, vaguely resembling the old man's demeanor back then.
No one knew that when Gu Hanchuan left, he actually had a set of keys in his pocket.
In addition to the house in the compound, the old man also has a house outside.
Moreover, he had already transferred the house to Gu Hanchuan's name when Gu Hanchuan was still in school.
In this way, when the housing management bureau later made unified plans for the houses, Gu Hanchuan had already grown up and was in high school at the time, so it was normal for him to own a house.
And just like that, we avoided it.
The house is now inhabited by two old brothers who followed Gu Dongfang in building the empire back then.
These two old brothers had no children, and one of them had never even married.
Because both of them were disabled, there was no way to arrange jobs for them directly. Neither of them wanted to go back to their hometown, so Gu Dongfang arranged for them to stay in the house.
The two of them receive a monthly allowance, and they wanted to pay Gu Dongfang the rent, but Gu Dongfang refused, saying that they were all brothers and that this practice was not common nowadays.
The two elderly people are now living together, and things are going quite smoothly.
The main thing is that they don't need to go to work, and the monthly allowance is not small. They can eat and drink their fill, so what more could they want?
When Gu Hanchuan arrived, the two elderly people were sitting under a big tree in the yard, enjoying the cool shade.
"Hey, isn't this Ogawa?"
Gu Hanchuan greeted him with a smile. One of the men had lost a leg in the explosion, with one leg missing from the lower leg and the other amputated in the middle of the thigh. So Gu Hanchuan knelt down on the ground to talk to him.
This kind of behavior pleased the two elders.
"How have you two grandfathers been these past few years?"
“Great! Great. The government hasn’t forgotten us either. Every month, the neighborhood committee sends someone to visit us, and every month, someone delivers our food. We also receive subsidies. As for vegetables, we can just grow some in our yard.”
"You two are both heroes of our country, you must take good care of yourselves. By the way, I specially asked my wife to make some health-preserving pills for you this time. Do you two still remember how to take them?"
"I remember! This is the same thing you sent us last year, right? We ate it for more than two months straight."
"Well, my wife said that medicine is three parts poison and can't be taken all the time, so she stopped taking it for more than half a year. This time when I came, my wife asked me to bring some more for you. I guess the medicine will be finished by the end of summer."
"Okay, please thank your wife for us."
After chatting with them for a few minutes, Gu Hanchuan planned to go to the back.
These two old men live in the front yard, and there's a locked door leading to the back yard.
Gu Hanchuan opened the door and went inside. The two old men exchanged a glance and then smiled slightly.
Half an hour later, Gu Hanchuan came out again.
"Xiao Chuan, how long of a leave did you take this time?"
"It's not exactly asking for leave, it's just a normal vacation. My wife is pregnant, and the train journey is too long and tiring, so I didn't dare let her come. We'll wait until next time, when the baby is probably born, and then I'll bring them over to let you see them."
The old man in the wheelchair suddenly turned cold: "She's pregnant, and you still dare to go on a long trip?"
“There are people at home to take care of us. There’s a boy who’s about to grow up, and a little girl who’s a few years old. My cousin is also there, so you two can rest assured.”
Feeling guilty, Gu Hanchuan didn't mention that Song Huili was also pregnant.
That evening, Gu Hanchuan boarded the train back to Zhejiang Province.
No sooner had Gu Hanchuan left than Gu Guoliang caused trouble.
Ding Changde and Zhang Shuang got into a fight, and despite their age, they actually started hitting each other.
In a moment of panic, Gu Guoliang pushed Ding Changde's elderly mother to the ground, which stirred up a hornet's nest!
Mrs. Ding is over seventy years old this year. Ding Changde is her youngest son. He was pushed and immediately hospitalized. The examination revealed that he had a serious back injury and had to stay in bed for three months.
Gu Guoliang was dumbfounded.
