Chapter 320 The country comes first, then the family
Zhao Tian smiled, took the water bottle, and first asked Ningning if she wanted some. After Ningning said no, Zhao Tian unscrewed the water bottle and took a big gulp of water.
"The way you're saying that makes it sound like we're not a couple," Zhao Tian said with a smile.
I put the kettle back on the bedside table.
At this moment, Gu Ningning had already run out. Gu Zhendong saw that only he and Zhao Tian were in the room, so he pulled Zhao Tian's hand and gestured for her to sit down.
Zhao Tian sat on the edge of the bed, and Gu Zhendong supported himself with his hands, placing a kiss on Zhao Tian's forehead.
"Thank you for your hard work. I'll make it up to you a lot once my leg is healed," Gu Zhendong said gently to Zhao Tian.
Zhao Tian's face flushed red instantly, and she nodded shyly.
I don't know where Zhendong's "double compensation" refers to...
"Then you watch the child, I'll go out first." Zhao Tian has always been a straightforward person, looking very capable. Since marrying Gu Zhendong, she has really shown a lot of her feminine side.
Before Gu Zhendong could say anything more, Zhao Tian had already turned and left the room.
Gu Zhendong looked at the child on the bed and at Zhao Tian's back, and a smile crept onto his lips.
Once my leg heals, I'll work hard to earn money and pay back Gu Nan and Su Niannian.
I also need to earn more money so that my wife and children can live a good life.
Everyone has their own unique talents, and the current Gu Zhendong shows no trace of the dejection he displayed the year before.
Outside, Su Niannian stood by the truck, wanting to take some luggage inside, but her hand never touched any of the luggage.
Whether it was Zhou Qishan, Xiao Yang, Gu Nan, or Gu's mother, as soon as they saw Su Niannian about to take her luggage, they would take her things first.
Even Gu Ningning and Zhao Tian, who had just joined, wouldn't let Su Niannian touch anything heavy.
They were protecting Su Niannian like a giant panda.
As for Chief Lu and Old Master Bai, they were already sitting in the courtyard.
The two elderly people wanted to help with the luggage, but who would dare ask them to help move things? So they were told to sit in the yard.
"Girl, come and sit down." Chief Lu found it amusing to see Su Niannian looking like she couldn't get her luggage.
He then invited Su Niannian to come and sit down.
"I've been sitting for too long. Once I get that package from the kitchen, I'll start cooking," Su Niannian said with a smile to Chief Lu.
"Cook? What kind of food? There's a canteen in the compound. We'll go eat there after we unload the goods," said Chief Lu.
After all this running around, how could I let Su Niannian cook? That old geezer over there would kill me.
"My brother's legs aren't very strong, so I'd better cook something at home." Su Niannian felt that having such a large group of people go to the cafeteria might attract attention.
Since I'm new here, it's best to keep a low profile.
When Grandpa Bai heard what Su Niannian said, he also felt that there was some truth to it.
"Go buy some and eat it," Old Master Bai said, nudging Chief Lu with his elbow.
Commander Lu understood and sent Xiao Yang to buy some food.
Fine, now Su Niannian is even more bored. She's not allowed to take her own things, and now she's not even allowed to cook.
Gu Nan noticed that his little girl seemed a bit unhappy.
He walked over to Su Niannian with the things in his hand, took her wrist, and led her into his room.
"What are you doing?"
"Aren't you always busy? You have things in the house, can't you take them out and tidy them up?" Gu Nan said softly to Su Niannian.
Su Niannian then realized she no longer had nothing to do, and a smile appeared on her face as Gu Nan pulled her into the house.
As a result... as soon as Gu Nan entered the room, he put down his luggage and hugged Su Niannian.
"??"
What's going on? Weren't you supposed to be packing your things?
"Well!"
Gu Nan's kisses fell like raindrops.
Su Niannian's legs felt weak from Gu Nan's kisses while she was in his arms.
Gu Nan finally stopped.
"Let's pack up." Gu Nan said with a smile, put the luggage that had just been placed on the ground back in a place where it wouldn't get in the way, and then went out to continue moving things.
Su Niannian covered her mouth and glared at Gu Nan's back.
"That damn bastard, kissing so hard! If his lips swell up, he'll be laughed to death!"
Su Niannian's voice wasn't loud, but Gu Nan, with his sharp ears, still heard it.
Gu Nan looked like a child who had just done something naughty, with the corners of his mouth turned up in a mischievous smile, a smile that was harder to suppress than an AK.
In no time at all, all the luggage on the truck was unloaded.
The sewing machine was in the way, so it was placed directly in Gu's mother's room, since her room was larger.
The kitchen utensils were also placed inside the kitchen.
At the entrance to the courtyard, there was a place that looked like a storage room with a awning, so two bicycles were placed there, along with some baskets, bamboo hampers, small stools, farm tools, and the like.
The house and yard had been cleaned by someone before, so they were fairly clean.
All that's left is to unpack the luggage, organize the items, and then there's no rush.
After the items were moved, someone came and drove the truck and a car away.
We can't just stay outside Gu Nan's house forever.
A short while later, Xiao Yang drove back with lunch.
Everyone gathered in the courtyard, eating their meal.
"You should report to the army tomorrow. You've just returned, so take some time to adjust. There's a new batch of recruits, so I'll entrust them to you for guidance," Commander Lu said to Gu Nan during dinner.
Gu Nan responded, "Yes, I will take good care of them."
Gu Nan responded seriously.
Chief Lu's expression changed slightly, and he thought to himself, "There's no need to be so careful with them..."
After all, Gu Nan seems to be even stricter than him when it comes to leading troops.
After all, Gu Nan's own physical fitness and endurance are what they are; if he were to use the same standards he holds himself to for the new recruits...
I'm afraid the new recruits will all be suffering terribly from the training.
However, this is just a minor issue. After all, once Gu Nan has familiarized himself with the situation, his primary focus will still be on missions.
Gu Nan is so capable, otherwise, how could he have risen to the position of regimental commander at such a young age?
That's right. Su Niannian is pregnant now. If Gu Nan's mission is the kind that requires him to be away from home for a long time, it might be a bit inappropriate.
However, the more capable a person is, the more useful they should be placed in a position of strength; otherwise, what kind of person will they become?
Chief Lu was somewhat influenced by personal feelings and became a little soft-hearted.
Old Master Bai, however, seemed to sense his old friend's thoughts...
"Let things be as they are! The country comes first, then the family." Old Master Bai patted his old friend on the shoulder and said seriously.
"Nonsense, do you need to tell me? Don't I know?" Chief Lu said, showing a look of disdain.
But I no longer felt the same hesitation as before.
He smiled and continued eating.
