The whole family looked at Gu Changan expressionlessly, thinking that he was bragging and lying. How could the family not know his own virtue? As far as Chang’an is concerned, going out and not being driven back is already the best result.
Being able to stay in the army for such a long time is not bad.
Of course, no one would hit him at this time.
He just came back, so they have to give him some face. Otherwise, what should they do if he loses his temper?
Gu Changan didn’t notice anything wrong with his family. He ate the braised pork and big white rice in big mouthfuls, his eyes narrowed unconsciously, and he leaned on the chair and sighed.
It’s so comfortable, this is how people should live

Seeing him like this, mother Gu felt very distressed, so she hurriedly asked Eldest Sister-in-law Gu to make honey water for him. Chang’an likes to drink that.
After eating a full stomach and drinking the sweet honey water, Gu Changan smiled.
“Chang’an, why did you come back suddenly?” Deputy Magistrate Gu asked while holding a teacup.
He is also planning to find his old comrades during the Chinese New Year, to see if he can bring Chang’an back for a blind date. He didn’t expect him to come back early.
Gu Changan enjoyed drinking honey water from his own enamel cup, and when he heard this, he said, “Didn’t I just say that I finished training, and our company commander asked me to come back.”
Eldest brother Gu Changzheng said, “Chang’an, are you the only one coming back?” Gu Chang’an said, “It should be, the other two seem to have not completed their training yet.”
This sounds unreliable. Originally, the most unreliable person in the family can become a good soldier in the army. He finished the training that others haven’t finished yet?
Deputy county magistrate Gu said, “Comrade Gu Chang’an, as a People’s Liberation Army, you must be honest and not lie about military information.”
“Why would I lie about military information?” Seeing that they still didn’t trust them, Gu Changan went straight into the house and then took out an envelope from his bag, “Everything is in there, and you still don’t believe me. I haven’t had a good day in the army.”
Deputy county magistrate Gu took it over and took out a medal and certificate from it.
Gu Changan continued to complain, “I thought holding this would allow me to go to a good company to live a good life, but it turned out to be useless. It was useless. The place I went to was more miserable than others. I finally know why it’s called Sharp Knife Camp, it’s as uncomfortable as stepping on a knife
”
After reading the certificates and medals, the whole family stared at him blankly
 Is this still their third child, Gu Changan?
Look at the name, well, yes. Looking at the person again, except that his skin looks like dad, he still looks like mom. It’s the third child, that’s right.
God, there is really something promising in Chang’an!
Deputy Magistrate Gu’s eyes turned red with excitement.
The hand holding the certificate was shaking. He really didn’t expect it. He originally wanted to send his son to hone and suffer a little, so that he can grow up a little bit. Who knew that he could grow so well all of a sudden?
He was mistaken, his son is still a good candidate for a soldier.
He asked, “Chang’an, how did you practice in the army?”
Gu Chang’an pouted, “If it wasn’t for my good health, I would have been crippled long ago!” How did I practice? Of course, I practiced desperately!
Mother Gu wiped her tears when she heard this, “It’s a good thing I feed Chang’an well. You always dislike the fact that Chang’an eats well and eats a lot. If he doesn’t eat like this, can he be successful?”
Sister-in-law Gu and Second sister-in-law Gu shook their heads. My brother-in-law is really well-raised.
Seeing his mother crying, Gu Changan felt that there was something to be done, so he said, “Mom and Dad, I have suffered a lot now, see if you can get me back from the army. I want to retire, I am too tired, too bitter, woo woo
”
How is this possible?! Deputy County Magistrate Gu collected the medals and certificates calmly and prepared to display them in the living room.
As for letting his son leave the army, it is completely impossible. If he gets such a good prospect back from the army, he will be sorry for the motherland and the people.
Besides, if he was so good, the army would not let him go.
“Once you join the army unless you become a deserter
 you will have to go to a military court.”
Mother Gu was about to promise her son, but she immediately shut up when she heard this.
Gu Chang’an was confused, what do you mean, I can’t come back?
Deputy County Magistrate Gu said, “Don’t worry, Chang’an, if you behave better, you can come back sooner. You see that you performed well this time, didn’t you come back too? If you do better in the future, you can come back sooner. If you really can’t bear this hardship, then you can act like a cadre. Do you see your company commander doesn’t need training?”
Gu Chang’an nodded, yes, the company commander never trains, so he just yelled a few times behind him.
“Son, behave well, Dad is waiting for you to come back. That’s right. You have to come back to get married.”
Hearing him talk about this, Mother Gu also thought of this important event, “Yes, Chang’an, we have already done it for you. We have found a good match, tomorrow we will visit your mother-in-law’s house.”
“When did I get a mother-in-law?” Gu Changan was even more confused than before. He didn’t even have a partner when he left. Now there is a mother-in-law after half a year, why didn’t he know?
Mother Gu smiled and said, “It’s Qing’er’s mother. We all work together to look for your partner, and your two sisters-in-law helped to find her
”
The second sister-in-law Gu looked at the sky, don’t mention it, she regretted it to death. Eldest Sister-in-law Gu laughed heartily and didn’t say a word.
Gu Ma continued, “Your dad and I have seen her too. She is a very good girl, and your mother-in-law is also good.”
Gu Chang’an immediately quit. Why are you looking for a partner? He hasn’t eaten big white noodles and meat himself, but now he has to raise others. How can he raise them?
“Mom, I’m still young, so I won’t look for it. If I look for it, I can’t afford it. Our army allowance is not much. It’s only ten yuan a month. I don’t even have enough food for myself.”
Eldest Sister-in-law Gu and Second sister-in-law Gu: “
” Suddenly I feel that the little girl is also very pitiful.
Mother Gu raised her brows with joy and said, “I don’t want you to raise them. Your mother-in-law said that they will raise themselves in the future. They will eat fine grains and wear new clothes. They will supply themselves and don’t want you to raise their family. They will treat you well. Whatever good things they have, they will share with you.”
Gu Chang’an’s brows slowly raised
 How can there be such a good thing?
“Does she look ugly, Mom? I’m not willing to do anything just for one bite of food.”
“Oh, my Chang’an, just relax, can mom neglect you? It’s white and tender. She has a round face and round eyes, not to mention how cute she is, and she has a good temper. She is raised by three brothers in the family. She is also very diligent and can do everything, including making clothes and cooking. I heard that everyone on their team likes her. Tell me, where can you find such a good girl?”

Why does it sound like you hit it off so well?
Gu Chang’an coughed, “Then, let’s take a look.”
“My Chang’an is really sensible, Mom will definitely not harm you!” Mother Gu immediately burst into joy.
In the Yellow River production team, the old Su family in Sujia Village, Gao Xiulan showed off the fatty fish and meat she brought back.
The family members who watched were drooling.
It’s a pity that after Gao Xiulan showed them all, she put them away in her room, “We will entertain our in-laws tomorrow. Cheer up one by one. Dress neatly. Wear new clothes and be decent!”
Erbao turned around anxiously, “Grandma, new clothes, new clothes.”
Su Qinghe was collecting the needle, “Don’t worry, it will be ready soon.” Go down a few stitches in a row, then start to close the stitches and tie the knot. A small army green coat is ready.
After the buzzing in her head for a long time, Su Qinghe endured it for a while and finally stopped. Then put the new clothes on Erbao.
The other children stared eagerly at Gao Xiulan. “Grandmother
”
Gao Xiulan felt uncomfortable when she heard this, “What is it called? Wear them tomorrow, the leather will be ruined if you wear them now. Wear it tomorrow morning, and show them to your uncle.” With that, regardless of Erbao’s flat mouth, he took off his clothes and held them in his hand.
Su Qinghe: “
”
After the meeting, Lin Shuhong and Ding Guihua started to boil water for the family to take a bath. It’s inconvenient to take a bath at home. Except for Su Qinghe, everyone else hasn’t taken a bath for several months
 Well, if you want to wear new clothes, you must wash them clean.
When the family was busy, Su Qinghe got into the room. Close the door and start closing her eyes.
I started to check my skill points;
clothes (level B): 0
food (level B): 2
house: 0
transportation: 0
Su Qinghe was happy, and finally upgraded the skill points of ‘Clothes’ to level B. No wonder she became more and more proficient in making clothes later on.
“Congratulations on the host’s ‘clothes’ task for upgrading and entering the B-level assessment stage.”
“B-level assessment task: As a military wife with a superb sewing memory, how can the craftsmanship be inferior to ordinary tailors? The requirements exceed the craftsmanship of the tailors in the county where you are. Make ten pieces of clothing that are beyond others’ craftsmanship. The system will judge. If you fail to complete one piece, one skill point and the corresponding fabric will be rewarded.”
Su Qinghe silently ignored it, and then checked the list of side tasks, where the tasks of ‘house’ and ‘transportation’ finally appeared.
Side task 3: As an all-around military wife, how can she not take care of her own home? Regular cleaning is carried out. If the sanitation is qualified, 1 cleaning skill point will be rewarded and a cleaning product will be rewarded.
Su Qinghe: “
 Cleaning still requires skills?”
“Host, any profession has technical content, such as how to wash dishes and chopsticks in a healthy and safe manner, and how to sterilize and exterminate the house. All of them require correct knowledge. For a good living environment for yourself and others, it is necessary for the host to learn this skill. Of course, this skill is not strictly required, and the host can do whatever she wants. However, the rewards for this task are also very generous, meeting the daily needs of the host.”
Su Qinghe automatically ignored its brainwashing remarks, and then checked the skills below.
Side task four: As an all-around military wife, how can she not have a means of transportation? The host is asked to choose a means of transportation to learn, and if she drives one kilometer for the first time without any accidents, she will be rewarded with 1 skill point. If you drive two kilometers for the second time without accidents, you will be rewarded with 1 skill point, and so on
 There is no small reward for this task. After completing the upgrade, you will be rewarded with a vehicle. ”
Seeing the reward, Su Qinghe’s eyes lit up, wondering if she could have a spaceship

“Host, please note that the vehicle rewarded is the same as the vehicle learned by the host. ”
” 
” Su Qinghe said, “It’s still possible to dream, maybe I can accidentally realize it.” ”
“That’s impossible.”
“
Okay, I won’t quarrel with artificial intelligence, so what, the vehicle you rewarded, I can’t explain where it came from. You need a ticket to buy a bicycle here. ”
“The system can reward bicycle tickets. The host can purchase it by herself. ”
Su Qinghe thought about it, and this seems to be barely acceptable. At this moment, a bicycle is equivalent to a car in the future. Riding a bicycle every day when you have nothing to do can reward you with a bicycle worth a car, and make a lot of money. The problem is, Where can she find a bicycle to ride?
Forget it, she doesn’t want to think about the problem for the time being. Su Qinghe immediately went to find the problem that she is most concerned about. Quickly opened the storage space to check, and there was a small box of shining gold coins inside. This is the star coin.
“Is this enough to buy seeds? ”
“Yes, host.”
Su Qinghe was relieved, it was fine, everything was done.
Well, there is nothing else to do
 There is also a blind date

Early the next morning, Ols Su’s family asked for leave and didn’t go to work. What kind of job do they have? A blind date with a girl at home is a big event, so how can you be absent? This is a lack of attention to the girl!
Because they washed themselves the day before, they all put on clean clothes. Su Aiguo and Su Aihua both wore the clothes they wore when they got married, and Lin Shuhong and Ding Guihua did the same. Su Aidang is not married. Fortunately, there is a new dress left by his father that year. The children were all wearing their new clothes, cautiously, not daring to put their hands on their bodies. For fear of getting dirty.
These are new clothes.
Even Su Dabao didn’t go out anymore, because he was afraid that his clothes would be soiled if he went out.
Gao Xiulan placed brown sugar on the table, rock sugar, peanuts, and melon seeds, which were even better than those prepared during the Chinese New Year.
There are fish and meat hanging on the bamboo poles in the yard

The old Gu family was also dispatched by the whole family. After arriving in the town by car, they took the carriage in the commune to the Yellow River production team. Because they are the main matchmakers, Secretary Hao and his wife also came.
A group of people is in a hurry.
As soon as he entered the village, he was discovered. Guo Changsheng thought that the leader was here to hold him accountable for the food, but the leader went directly to the old Su’s house in the village
He didn’t even change his clothes and went directly. He was worried that the old Su family had done something earth-shattering.
At this time, Gu Chang’an had already followed his parents into the yard of the future mother-in-law’s house.
As soon as he entered the yard, he saw the fish and meat hanging on the bamboo poles
 There was a feeling of deja vu.
“Hey, my in-laws, you are here. Come in and sit down and drink a glass of water. This is Chang’an, right? Come here quickly.”
A loud voice came, and Gu Changan immediately looked over with a calm expression. He saw a thin old lady pulling a round, white and tender little girl over.
His eyes straightened immediately
 He had seen that old lady before! Yesterday, just yesterday, the old lady who wanted to feed her son-in-law big fish and meat!
Gu Changan slightly raised the corners of his mouth, telling himself to be calm. Then he looked at Su Qinghe calmly
 Inexplicably, he felt familiar, and it was also a feeling of deja vu.
Su Qinghe also looked at him. Why did she think she had seen him somewhere?
The two secretly looked at each other. In the end, both of them came to a conclusion, could this be the so-called love at first sight?
“Love is the longing for the half of ourselves we have lost.”
