Chapter 281 Two old men arrive overnight in Kaoshan Village
On the other side, a military vehicle drove up on the road from the county town to Kaoshan Village.
They drove straight to Gu Nan's house.
"Are you two really not going to take a break after all this travel?" Zhou Qishan, sitting in the passenger seat, looked at the two old men in the back seat with genuine concern.
But the two old men had excited expressions on their faces.
There was no indication that he had spent a day and two nights traveling by train.
"Stop talking nonsense! You've been chattering all the way here. If you make another sound, believe me, I'll throw you off the train!" Chief Lu said.
Zhou Qishan felt that if he said another word, he would really be thrown out of the car, so he quickly turned his head back and silently shut his mouth!
“Actually, you two didn’t need to come in person… I could have just called Gu Nan and Miss Su over.” Zhou Qishan murmured in a low voice.
"Come on, stop the car and throw Zhou Qishan out." Commander Lu made a gesture as if to tell the driver to stop the car and throw Zhou Qishan out.
Zhou Qishan immediately covered his mouth and shook his head frantically.
He indicated that he would never say another word.
Chief Lu then stopped paying attention to him.
"How much further? Why aren't we there yet? Is it really that far?" Old Master Bai asked anxiously.
The thought of seeing his granddaughter soon made Bai Xuesong wish he could sprout wings and fly over immediately.
"You old codger, you've been waiting for so long, what's a little longer?" Chief Lu rolled his eyes at the old man.
"Bullshit! Of course you're not worried if she's not your granddaughter!"
"My perfectly good granddaughter has been given away to one of your brats." Old Master Bai glared at Chief Lu.
The ensuing conversation prompted Zhou Qishan to turn around and look again.
As a result, the two old men, upon hearing the commotion, glared at Zhou Qishan together.
Like a startled rabbit, Zhou Qishan quickly averted his gaze and silently and obediently looked at the road ahead.
Seriously, I don't know what's gotten into these two old men. They rushed to Long County, and then rushed to Kaoshan Village to find Gu Nan and Su Niannian.
You know, Chief Lu has only just recovered from a serious illness. Can his body withstand such a bumpy ride?
It's one thing for Chief Lu to be impulsive, but Old Master Bai didn't even try to persuade him; he just went along with Chief Lu's madness.
Really are……
However, Zhou Qishan was still very curious about what could have made the two old men so anxious to go to Kaoshan Village to find Su Niannian and Gu Nan.
Also, who is the granddaughter that Grandpa Bai mentioned?
Gu Nan's transfer order should be issued in the next few days.
Why couldn't we have met in Beijing to discuss this? Why did you come all the way here in such a hurry?
The more Zhou Qishan thought about it, the less he knew what the two old men were up to.
When the car arrived at the village entrance, it attracted the attention of many people.
"So this is Kaoshan Village?" Old Master Bai asked Zhou Qishan.
Zhou Qishan nodded, then responded, saying that they had arrived at Kaoshan Village.
"Okay." Old Master Bai's expression became even more excited.
"Gu Nan's house is just ahead, but the car can't drive to the entrance. You have to stop over there," Zhou Qishan said, pointing ahead to the two elderly men in the back seat.
“Alright, we’ll drive as far as we can. We can walk on our own!” Old Master Bai said.
At that moment, he wished he could jump out of the car and run over.
Zhou Qishan had been here when Gu Nan got married, so he was familiar with the terrain.
Under Zhou Qishan's instructions, the car slowly came to a stop in a fairly open area.
“You’ll have to walk on your own from here on out, but it’s not far yet,” Zhou Qishan said.
Before he could finish speaking, the two elderly gentlemen in the back seat had already gotten out of the car.
Zhou Qishan also hurriedly opened the car door and got out.
As soon as the two old men got out of the car, they looked around with their eyes darting around.
"Which way? This way, right?" Chief Lu asked Zhou Qishan.
Zhou Qishan quickly nodded.
After receiving confirmation of the direction, the two old men immediately started walking forward.
"Xiao Yang, take the gifts inside," Old Master Bai instructed the driver, Xiao Yang.
"Zhou Qishan, you help carry it too!" Chief Lu said.
Then, the driver, Xiao Yang, and Zhou Qishan followed along, carrying the gifts they had prepared for Su Niannian in the car.
"The two old gentlemen are in high spirits," Xiao Yang said to Zhou Qishan in a low voice.
"Stop talking nonsense! Do you think it's our place to meddle in the old man's affairs?" Zhou Qishan had been scolded the whole way, and now he finally had someone to scold him for, which was great.
Xiao Yang: ? ? ?
It was the first time the two old men had come here, so they didn't know which one belonged to the Gu family.
As I walked along, I passed several courtyards, but they didn't look tidy at all. They probably weren't Gu Nan's houses.
Both Gu Nan and the little girl seem to be people who would keep their homes tidy and organized.
"Just one more shop ahead." Zhou Qishan, carrying his things, jogged after Xiao Yang.
Seeing the two old men walking so fast, I was afraid they would miss me.
So they shouted from behind.
"This way, this way! This is it." When Chief Lu saw that the courtyard on his left was very neat and clean, he thought this was the place.
"Hmm." Old Master Bai followed.
Zhou Qishan and Xiao Yang quickly ran over to catch up.
At this moment, Gu Zhendong was sunbathing in the yard, his mother was sweeping the yard, and Gu Ningning was playing in the mud with Yangyang.
Then two old men appeared at the gate of the courtyard.
"Who are you looking for?" When Gu's mother saw strangers appear at her doorstep, two rather imposing elderly men, she couldn't help but put down her broom and go over to ask.
"Gu Nan, you live here, right?" Chief Lu asked.
"You... Oh my, you must be Gu Nan's old commander?" Gu's mother didn't recognize the old commander at first.
But as soon as Chief Lu spoke, Gu's mother recognized him instantly.
I quickly asked.
"Yes, is Gu Nan at home?" Chief Lu asked again.
"No, Gu Nan and his wife went to work."
"Going to work? Did the little girl go to work too?" When Grandpa Bai heard that his precious granddaughter had also gone to work, he immediately felt uncomfortable.
"Hmm..." Gu's mother stared blankly at the two of them.
At this moment, Zhou Qishan and Xiao Yang also arrived.
"Are you looking for them? Is there some problem with Gu Nan's return to the army?" Gu's mother asked again.
"Where is the work site? Can you take us there?" Chief Lu asked.
"Go to Su Niannian's place," Old Master Bai replied.
"Could you let the two old gentlemen go in first, and then I'll go find them and bring them back?" Zhou Qishan said, carrying his things behind him.
As a result, he was glared at by the two old men again.
