Back To The 80s-Chapter 450 - 460: Delivery_1

Li Juan told Gu Xiaobei how Xiangmin had sought her out and said, "I had no idea she divorced the instructor."

Gu Xiaobei didn’t bother to mention that Xiangmin had actually run away, and asked, "So, you’re saying Guo Huaqiang sent her to apologize to me and Fengmei? Using Xinxin as a condition?"

Li Juan nodded.

Gu Xiaobei squinted and thought, Guo Huaqiang had moved to the provincial city and severed all old relationships, how could he suddenly want Xiangmin to apologize to them? Gu Xiaobei believed that there must be something wrong when things deviate from the norm, and he had to be on guard in the future.

In the afternoon, just before closing, a last-minute client from the same city came to pick up goods. After checking the goods, calculating the account, and sending off the customer, he called Xiuxiu to close the shop together.

Lost in thought, he took out a piece of wood, prepared to wedge it into the door slot when suddenly a big dark hand reached out from behind and took the door plank.

Gu Xiaobei jumped in fright. If it weren’t for the familiar scent of the person behind, she would have screamed.

Annoyed, she turns around and lunges at Lu Zhanguo’s arm without caring that Xiuxiu was there. "You scared me again, are you trying to scare me to death?"

Lu Zhanguo felt wronged. He had made sure to stomp his feet and be as noticeable as possible when he walked in. Xiuxiu had even noticed and smiled at him, who knew that this little woman would be so oblivious.

It was only after scolding Lu Zhanguo with a mix of spoiled charm and anger that Gu Xiaobei asked, "When did you come back?" She finally looked directly at her husband.

At first glance, she was taken aback, he was already a dark man, now he was darker, his lips were purplish black due to staying on the plateau for a long time, it was so ugly that it hurt to look at.

"I came back this afternoon. Xiaopang just went to sleep, so I came to pick you up." Lu Zhanguo looked at Gu Xiaobei’s shocked eyes, reminiscent of how their daughter cried when she saw him, refusing to let him hold her until she familiarized herself with him again.

Seeing the thin and ugly man, Gu Xiaobei quietly said, "You should stay at home and rest for a while, why would you make the trip? Aren’t you tired?"

Lu Zhanguo chose not to respond, he took the planks from the shop one by one, locked the door, and finished up.

On the way home, with Gu Xiaobei sitting on the bicycle, she kept rambling about recent events, "Have you seen Doudou yet?"

"I saw."

"Will you guys be coming back and resting for a while this time?"

"Hmm."

"Will the Mid-Autumn Festival be celebrated at home?"

"It will be celebrated at home."

"That’s just great. Sister-in-law says big brother will be back for the Mid-Autumn Festival, I don’t know if Aiguo will be back? Whether Fang Jing will have such a long vacation, if they all come, we can have a barbecue in the yard."

"Good"

"....."

The whole journey was basically Gu Xiaobei talking non-stop and Lu Zhanguo just hummed in response. The setting sun stretched the shadows of the two bicyclists very long.

Because Lu Zhanguo came back, Wen Xiuqing rolled out some noodles especially for dinner, seeing that her son was both black and thin, she took half of the chicken soup she had made for Bai Xiaolan and gave it to Lu Zhanguo.

On the plateau, noodles were always undercooked and rice was always half-cooked, water never boiled, he had not even had a decent meal.

So he consumed the bowl of noodles huffily and puffily.

Wen Xiuqing couldn’t help but say, "Your dad’s comrades are all in contact, we could arrange a lighter duty for you, just have a look, you go out and lose so much weight."

Lu Songyuan dropped his chopsticks and glared, saying, "Your son is your son, but other people’s sons aren’t sons? How low can your awareness be?"

Wen Xiuqing, having grown much more open-minded, did not react angrily or make further comments.

Zhou Siping understood Wen Xiuqing and added, "Isn’t it about raising a child for a hundred years and worrying for ninety-nine? Parents just hope that their children will stay safe by their side." After saying this, he looked at his daughter, who was busy eating, and sighed in his heart. Here was another worry.

After dinner, Xiaopang insisted on going home with her dad and insisted on having her dad buy her ice cream.

No matter how much Wen Xiuqing coaxed her, it didn’t work. Gu Xiaobei could only take Mo Wang and the four of them went back to their apartment together.

Arriving at the apartment complex, after washing the two children, they both played on the kang.

Lu Zhanguo took out a fist-sized stone from his bag and handed it to Gu Xiaobei, "I bought this from a Uygur when we passed the Gobi Desert."

Gu Xiaobei was delighted to receive the stone, looking like a rosy cloud, moist like a crystal. After looking closely she said, "What is this? It doesn’t look like jade? It does look like agate though."

"I don’t know, it just looked nice, so I bought it." He remembered Gu Xiaobei saying that if you see a nice stone, you should buy it because she liked it.

Gu Xiaobei studied it for a while and, although she didn’t know what it was, she decided to keep it. Who knows, maybe it would turn out to be a treasure one day.

Xiaopang, because her dad was back, insisted on sleeping with her dad and told her mom and brother to sleep in the next room because she wanted to talk about buying ice cream with her dad. If her mom knew, she would definitely disagree.

Gu Xiaobei couldn’t help but laugh as she carried Mo Wang to the room next door for sleep.

As soon as her mother walked out the door carrying her brother, Xiaopang hugged her father’s neck and said coquettishly, "Where did dad go? Xiaopang missed dad."

Her baby voice melted Lu Zhanguo’s heart and he held his precious daughter and asked, "Where did Xiaopang miss her dad?"

Xiaopang drew back her arm, touched her round little belly, and said coyly, "Xiaopang missed her dad here, it hurts from missing dad."

Lu Zhanguo asked in cooperation with his daughter, "Why does your belly hurt? Now that dad is back, does it still hurt?"

Xiaopang blinked her big eyes, dumbly said, "It hurts, still hurts, it won’t hurt after eating an ice cream."

Lu Zhanguo couldn’t help laughing. The two-year-old little trickster had wrapped him around her little finger.

After the children fell asleep, Lu Zhanguo first brought Mo Wang to sleep on the bed, then, after a long time, he brought the mother of his children back to sleep together on the big bed.

On the 30th of August, Gu Xiaobei’s goods were already packed and ready, waiting for Boss Huang to pick them up.

Qin Li anxiously asked, "Sister Xiaobei, why isn’t he here yet? Could he have changed his mind?"

Gu Xiaobei wasn’t worried at all. She laughed and said, "No problem, if he doesn’t want them, we can sell them slowly. Besides, he would lose his three-thousand-dollar deposit."

Then, after a moment’s thought, Gu Xiaobei decided to give Boss Huang a call to inform him that the goods were ready for pick up.

After calling the number Boss Huang left several times, she finally reached him.

Gu Xiaobei had just finished saying that the goods were ready for pickup when Boss Huang paused and said, "Boss Gu, you guys sure are efficient, but according to our agreement, aren’t you supposed to deliver the goods?"
