Chapter 260 Gu Jiandong Returns
"What's wrong with being a live-in son-in-law? Gu Jiandong likes my eldest niece and likes to be the live-in son-in-law of our Shen family. My eldest niece has plenty of money and can afford to support Gu Jiandong."
What's wrong with this live-in son-in-law? Liu Pandi thinks he's very good. The Shen family members are easy to talk to, especially her, Liu Pandi.
"Shu Yu is as lazy as a salted fish, but she is also very strong. If the couple quarrels, what should we do if Shu Yu bullies Jiandong?"
Jiandong is a very good-tempered kid. If he was bullied by his wife, he would definitely not say anything. He might even reflect on what he did wrong.
Bah, bah, what are they thinking? Shu Yu and Jiandong can never be a couple. Shu Yu is not worthy of Jiandong.
"Why are you bullying her? My niece loves Gu Jiandong so much, how could she possibly bully him..."
Liu Pandi put her hands on her hips and started quarreling with the group of old women. Zhang Cuicui and Li Caixia heard their conversation. The three sisters-in-law formed a united front and started quarreling with the aunts with their mouths like machine guns.
Shen Shuyu and Gu Jiandong didn't know all this. As soon as Gu Jiandong arrived at the bureau, he called the army to tell them about the situation.
After Du Changtian finished interrogating the captured people, he and Du Changtian led all the people in the bureau to go out.
After a day and a night of lying in wait, they captured a group of enemy spies in a house in the suburbs.
It was three days later when Gu Jiandong returned to the Shenjiaba Brigade. He had not slept for several days and nights. His beard was untidy and he looked listless. When everyone saw him like this, they thought he had been tortured into confessing by the public security comrades.
"I said that the police officer who took Jiandong away was worried that he was not very upright. Look, Jiandong must have been beaten by them."
"That's right. We agreed to bring Jiandong back the next day, but he only came back now, and there's no bicycle to take him back."
He said he would come back the next day. But no one had seen Gu Jiandong, so they went to the bureau several times to ask about him. Everyone was very anxious and sat down in the bureau and refused to leave. It was Shen Erzhu who went to call him back.
"This is too much. Let's go and reason with them."
"Let's go, let's go..."
These women are police officers, not bandits. How could they do anything to Jiandong? Shen Erzhu said, "Be quiet, stop making noise, and see what Jiandong has to say."
"I'm on a mission. I haven't slept for several days. I'm a little tired."
"Did you hear that? The kid is out on a mission. Stop surrounding Jiandong and let him go home and sleep."
The crowd dispersed, and Gu Jiandong saw Shen Shuyu outside the crowd. He strode towards her with a gentle look in his eyes and a smile, "Shuyu, I'm back."
Shen Shuyu felt inexplicably relieved when she saw him coming back. "It's good that you're back. Let's go home."
The two walked side by side, their eyes occasionally not meeting each other's gazes, they didn't talk much, but the atmosphere was very harmonious.
Liu Pan looked at the two people's backs and pursed his lips, "See how well-matched the two children are when they walk together."
Everyone watched, but chose to pretend not to see it.
Liu Pandi: “…” These old ladies dared to question her words. When she, Liu Pandi, successfully brings the two of them together and the wedding banquet is set out, these old ladies will have to smile and bless the two children.
As soon as Gu Jiandong got home, Mr. and Mrs. Shen surrounded him. "Oh, why do you look so tired? Your second aunt made noodles and you ate them and then fell asleep."
Gu Jiandong was really in love and was in a hurry to come back. He didn't even go to the state-owned restaurant when Du Changtian asked him to have dinner.
Gu Jiandong finished a bowl of noodles in less than a minute, and then filled a bucket with hot water and said he was going to take a shower.
After taking a shower, Gu Jiandong wanted to stay with Shen Shuyu for a while. Shen Shuyu said, "Go back to your room and rest first. When you have enough sleep, we can talk."
Gu Jiandong nodded, returned to the room, and fell asleep immediately.
The white radish has been soaking in the spiritual spring water and has drunk a lot of it, and the wound has healed a little.
Now that it was feeling better and no longer in danger, Shen Shuyu stopped letting it soak in the spiritual spring water. Instead, he applied herbal medicine to it and bandaged its wound with gauze.
Knowing that Gu Jiandong had returned, he shouted on the kang, wanting to go see Gu Jiandong. Shen Shuyu simply carried the white radish to Gu Jiandong's room.
Bai Luobo really missed Gu Jiandong after not seeing him for several days. He and his dog were sleeping soundly in the house.
Shen Shuyu went to the cowshed before dinner. They lived in the cowshed and had no contact with the villagers. Shen Shuyu did not tell them, so he knew the news later than others.
They were out picking up cow dung when they heard from the villagers that a group of people came to Shenjiaba Brigade with guns and held children hostage, and their granddaughter even fought with them.
As soon as Shen Shuyu arrived, the couple asked, "Shuyu, who are those people? Why did they appear in Shenjiaba Brigade out of nowhere?"
The couple was a little worried that those people were coming to look for them.
"I don't know either. Gu Jiandong is back and sleeping at home. I'll ask him later when he wakes up."
Shen Shuyu knew what they were worried about, but what Shen Shuyu was sure of was that those people were not here to look for her grandparents.
If they came to look for my grandparents, those people would not have fought with Gu Jiandong at the foot of the mountain.
"I heard that Jiandong's child is fine?" Yang Zhen and his wife knew the boy from the Gu family. They had held the child in their arms when he was young.
They were sent down here and found out that Gu Jiandong, the educated youth who went to the countryside, was the child of the Gu family. They sighed and wondered why this child had a brain injury!
"Okay, he's not stupid anymore."
"Alright, alright, alright."
After talking in the cowshed for a while, Shen Shuyu estimated that it was almost time for dinner at home, so he left the cowshed.
The fact that Gu Jiandong was not stupid was unknown to everyone in Shenjiaba Brigade, including Zhou Jingchen and Shen Xue who had never left their homes.
When Zhou Jingchen heard the news, his first reaction was disbelief. He had asked Shen Xue before, and she knew that Gu Jiandong became stupid because he was shot in the head.
The military hospital couldn’t cure him, so they discharged him from the army. He became a fool and worthless, and his family abandoned him and sent him to the countryside as a fool.
How could someone who has always been a fool suddenly stop being a fool?
These villagers must be talking nonsense.
Shen Xue didn't believe it either, so she went out with her crutches to ask her mother.
"Gu Jiandong is fine, so he is fine. Can Aunt Liu still lie to you?"
"Mom, don't you find it strange? Gu Jiandong has always been a fool, how come he is suddenly not a fool anymore?"
"What's so strange about this? You're so stupid that you're willing to marry Zhou Jingchen, that weakling, even if it means begging for mercy and losing all your dignity.
Gu Jiandong suddenly got better, what's so strange about that? This proves that our Shenjiaba Brigade is taking care of people."
Shen Xue: “…” She shouldn’t have asked her mother. Every time she asked a question, her mother would find an opportunity to scold her.
