Chapter 178: That's not what I've caught up with yet
Ning Sangyu lowered her head upon hearing this, "Brother, am I a burden to you?"
Ji Huaimin patted her head and said, "Don't think like that. Sangsang is one of the reasons why my brother lives."
His father was a revolutionary against the old dynasty and his entire family was exterminated by the old dynasty.
He should have died, but she, who came to visit, dragged him out from the pile of dead bodies and carried him home while crying and trembling.
He escaped death several times, and what supported him was not only his faith but also his sister.
He wanted to create a new home with like-minded people so that she would no longer live in fear.
"Stop daydreaming. The food is getting cold."
"Oh." Ning Sangyu slowly scooped the vegetables with his left hand, "Don't buy such long vegetables next time. I can't scoop them up."
Ji Huaimin found it a little funny to see her "fighting and failing" and asked, "Well, do you want me to feed you?"
"No, I'm not a child anymore."
"It seems like you're having a hard time eating. Today, all the restaurants nearby are closed early, so you can only buy vermicelli."
"Brother, since you and Yue Shuai have no friendship, since he saved me and took care of me for so long, should we go and thank him?"
Even if you have a friendship, you still have to say thank you.
"Well, I'll go and thank you." Yue Xiangli just didn't want to be thanked for some other reasons.
The next day, Yue Xiangli went to the military camp.
Shen Dingwei was standing on a high platform in the training ground watching the soldiers training.
Seeing Yue coming towards Li, he said, "I think he needs to work on his speed. His teamfighting ability is good, but his individual combat ability is still not strong."
Shen Dingwei went abroad to attend military school a few years ago.
"Then make a plan according to your ideas."
"The weapon is a bit outdated, the speed of continuous firing is very slow, and the bullets are a bit stuck."
"I heard from you that some of those who studied abroad studied firearms research and development. Do they have any intention of coming back?" Yue Xiangli has already prepared a firearms laboratory and recruited some talents in this field.
"Yes, Gu Kuangheng, 29 years old, I have some friendship with him."
"When I came back two years ago, he said he would come back in a few years. Two months ago, I received a letter from him saying that he was on the ship and should arrive at the Yuanjiang port on March 27th. Perhaps we can try to get him to come to our side." Shen Dingwei pressed his military cap.
"The news that he has returned is known to many people, and I guess other forces will also fight for him."
"Other factions are thinking of destroying him if they can't get him. If we want to win Gu Kuangheng over, we have to take him away when he gets off the ship."
"Gu Kuangheng received favors from the Yao family before he went abroad to study. If we don't have conditions that are enough to impress him, he might accept the olive branch from the Yao family."
Yue Xiangli looked at the soldiers below and asked, "What is his family background like?"
"I heard him say that all his family members are gone. They died at the hands of the old dynasty."
"He was entrusted to my aunt by my father, and my aunt and her family took him and fled to Qushan Province."
"When he was seventeen, he went abroad and his money was stolen. At that time, the Department of Remote Education sponsored a large number of students to study abroad, and he was one of them."
"When he was twenty-two, his aunt died of illness."
"He has a cousin from his aunt's family who is ten years younger than him, and a cousin from his uncle's sister's family who is four years younger than him."
"But the country has been in turmoil in recent years, and the correspondence between my uncle and him has stopped. When Gu Kuangheng received the last letter from home, my uncle said that his health was getting worse and he often coughed up blood."
"He wanted to go home, but there was a war going on abroad at that time, so his trip was put on hold."
"Do you want to play the emotional card? Then you have to go to Qushan Province to find his uncle's family. Qushan Province is not far from Qinghe Province and can be reached in five days."
"Give the summary of information about Gu Kuangheng's uncle's family to Lin Pingyi and ask him to go to Qushan Province and find the person before March 20th and bring him to Zhencheng safely. If he can't find him, forget it. We will get him back first."
"Okay." Shen Dingwei nodded. "I went to see you yesterday afternoon. Why weren't you in the mansion?"
"What do you want to talk to me about?"
"It's about what happened just now. I couldn't find you, and I thought you would come today. There's no point in worrying about this, so I'll just wait until today to talk about it."
"I went to visit someone."
Shen Dingwei thought for a moment, "I've searched your network of connections, but I can't think of anyone who's worth a visit."
All the connections between Vietnam and Li are in the army he leads.
"You will know when you should know." Yue Xiangli got down from the platform and went to train the troops personally.
On the way back in the afternoon, Shen Dingwei squeezed into Yue Xiangli's car and said, "Give me a ride."
"Not going my way."
"How can it be off the road? You have to pass by my house to go back to the Marshal's Mansion." Shen Dingwei leaned back in his chair and took off his hat.
Yue Xiangli glanced at him and said, "I'm going to the hospital."
"Go to the hospital? That's fine. My fiancée is also in the hospital. She is accompanying my future mother-in-law to visit friends today."
Yue Xiangli said nothing more and asked Yang Weiguo to open the pastry shop.
"Who are you going to see in the hospital?"
Yue Xiangli closed his eyes and said, "Look at my sweetheart."
"Who are you looking at?"
"You are not deaf, don't doubt it. Go wherever you want to go. Don't follow me. If you scare someone, I will hold you accountable." The car stopped and Yue Xiangli got off to buy things.
Shen Dingwei unbuttoned his collar and asked the guard in front of him, "What's going on with him?"
Wan Anbang: "If the Marshal didn't tell you, how dare we tell you?"
Shen Dingwei turned his hat with his fingers and said, "Okay, if you hide it from others, it means you haven't caught up with her yet."
Given his personality, there is no way he would hide something that has been confirmed.
When they arrived at the hospital, Yue Xiangli did not hide anything and went to the inpatient building in front of Shen Dingwei.
Shen Dingwei went to another floor to look for someone.
When they arrived at the ward, Yue Xiangli opened the door and heard Ji Huaimin's voice from inside.
"come in."
Yue Xiangli put the things on the table, "Double-nut milk skin puff pastry."
Ji Huaimin was drawing a picture. Ning Sangyu leaned over to watch him. Hearing what he said, she looked at him with some anticipation in her eyes.
Yue Xiangli untied the rope and handed the snack to her, "How do you feel today?"
He didn't look at Ji Huaimin's paintings.
Ji Huaimin glanced at him and continued painting.
"It won't hurt if you don't touch it." Ning Sangyu looked into his eyes and blinked.
Here it comes again. After she was no longer afraid of him, she had a strange feeling in her heart every time she looked at him.
Ji Huaimin turned sideways and saw her dazed look, and felt that the little girl was really unable to resist temptation.
"General Yue, when you have time, I will treat you to a meal to thank you for rescuing and taking care of my sister. I will also pay you back the medical expenses and hospitalization fees you paid in advance." Ji Huaimin said deliberately.
"No, I don't have time." Yue Xiangli responded, and seeing that she was a little distracted, a smile appeared in his eyes, "Don't you want to eat?"
Ning Sangyu came back to his senses and took a bite, "Oh."
Didn't he say yesterday afternoon that he wasn't busy during this period? He didn't have time to eat, but he had time to come and see her?
Does he like her?
After thinking in this direction, Ning Sangyu looked at him with more scrutiny and inquiry.
"Is it tasty?"
"I let you bring it because it tastes good."
"Yeah, that's right." Yue Xiangli nodded, "Then I'll buy another one for my brother when I go back home."
I just wanted to talk to her.
"Yue Shuai is so good to his brother and he even uses me as a food taster." Ning Sangyu said as she took another bite of the double-nut milk skin pastry.
"Okay."
In fact, he didn't want to buy it back for Yue Xiangchen. If he wanted to eat it, he would buy it himself.
