Traveling between the 70s and the modern world

Chapter 283 Punishment, Promotion

After the doctor left, Lin Qingyan took out the bag she was carrying and took out the ginseng from it.

He handed it to Mr. Gu and said to him with a smile:

"Grandpa Gu, I found this ginseng by chance in the mountains in the countryside. I wanted Yizhou to bring it to you, but I didn't expect him to use it first.

Now he doesn't need this ginseng anymore, so I'll give the rest to you. Do you mind if this ginseng is used?"

Old Master Gu looked at Lin Qingyan quietly for a while, and seeing the sincerity in her eyes, he thought for a while and then reached out to take it.

"Good boy, I know your intention. This ginseng is very valuable and has been shown outside. It is not as safe with you as it is with me. So I will keep it for you first. You can ask me for it when you need it, okay?"

"Grandpa Gu, this ginseng is really for you. I dug one in the mountains with Yizhou and Fang Yunxing before.

But that one is not as old as this one, and I have a smaller one that I plan to take back for my parents as a backup."

Gu Yizhou also said to Mr. Gu:

"Grandpa, this is a meeting gift from Qingyan. You can't just refuse it!"

Mr. Gu couldn't help but scold him.

"You little brat, only elders give gifts to younger ones. How can younger ones give gifts to elders first? Are you blaming me for not giving a gift to the girl yet?"

"Grandpa, you just need to prepare a bigger gift next time to make up for it." Gu Yizhou replied directly and shamelessly.

Mr. Gu ignored his grandson and took out a big red envelope from his pocket and handed it to Lin Qingyan.

"Girl, grandpa doesn't know what you girls like. Take this and buy whatever you like. If you can't buy it or need a ticket, tell grandpa and I'll get it for you."

Lin Qingyan waved her hands repeatedly to refuse, but Gu Yizhou quickly took the red envelope and stuffed it into Lin Qingyan's hand.

"No need to save money for him, grandpa is very rich, he is the richest in our family."

Lin Qingyan did not refuse the red envelope in the end, but instead thought about exchanging the money for other things of equal value or making up for it in other ways.

"Girl, I heard from Yizhou that you were admitted to Beijing University? Which department?"

"Yes, grandpa, it's the Department of Economics and Management of Peking University!"

"I heard that you are good at English and French. Why didn't you think of studying these but studied economics instead?"

Mr. Gu continued to ask.

Lin Qingyan fell into a brief memory.

"I am an educated youth who went to the countryside. In the past few years, I have seen too many farmers who were hungry and cold. Before applying for a major, I wondered what major would help them have enough food and clothing. I wanted to study agriculture and carefully study how to increase grain production.

But if the grain output increases, the farmers may be able to eat their fill, but what about their other material needs after they are full? How can these be met? Should we provide more materials to lower the price of products? Or should we create more opportunities so that the people can have money in their own hands? "

Lin Qingyan's eyes gradually changed from confused to clearer and clearer.

"I think whether ordinary people live a good life has a lot to do with the country's economic development."

Lin Qingyan didn't say anything more, but Mr. Gu understood what she meant and looked at her with approval:

"Girl, just do whatever you want to do. Grandpa will support you from behind."

Lin Qingyan didn't understand the importance of Mr. Gu's words at this time. She didn't really understand Mr. Gu's status. After all, television was still very rare in that era, and she didn't know that the old man in front of her was a character who often appeared on TV.

"Hurry up and thank Grandpa."

Gu Yizhou urged her from behind, and Lin Qingyan hurriedly thanked Mr. Gu with a smile.

When Gu Guodong and Lu Wan'er came over, the grandfather and grandson were chatting happily in the ward. Lu Wan'er wanted to ignore Gu Yizhou and Lin Qingyan, but when she saw Old Man Gu, she just stood aside obediently and didn't say a word.

The family got along very harmoniously, at least in the eyes of the leader who came in from outside to visit Gu Yizhou, they seemed to be very harmonious.

The chief came in and glanced at Gu Yizhou, then went out to talk with Old Man Gu and Gu Guodong.

There were only Lin Qingyan, Gu Yizhou and Lu Wan'er in the ward. Lu Wan'er looked at Lin Qingyan again and again.

Gu Yizhou was the first one who couldn't help himself and said to her:

"Mom! If you are tired, just go back and rest. Qingyan and Yunxing are here in the hospital!"

"What's wrong? Do you dislike your mother now?"

"Mom, you know that's not what I meant. It's just that you've been running back and forth to the hospital these past two days and haven't had a good rest. You look a little pale. If Aunt Chen next door sees you, she might scold you for another half a year."

Lu Wan'er touched her face in disbelief. She was an actress in a film studio. In addition to her acting skills, she also relied on her looks to make a living.

Is her face really so ugly now? If it is really like what her son said, if the shameless Chen next door sees it, she will really laugh at her.

When Lu Wan'er thought of this, she ignored Gu Guodong and said directly to Gu Yizhou:

"Then I'll go back first. When your dad comes, tell him."

After saying that, he took his bag and left.

Lin Qingyan was dumbfounded the whole time. She had never met someone who paid so much attention to image in this life or the previous one, except for Zhou Limei in modern times and those rich ladies she had met.

Whenever they met, they would discuss whose complexion looked better, who had injected more facial skin, and who had injected hyaluronic acid. Although she didn't understand what these words meant at the time, she found out after looking them up online.

Lu Wan'er was the first woman she met in the 70s who paid so much attention to her image.

On the other side, Mr. Gu and others were discussing the mission. After investigation by special departments, it was found that this mission was a trap set up specifically for Gu Yizhou.

In fact, the purpose of this plot was not to kill him, but to make him their son-in-law.

A political commissar in Gu Yizhou's army, Huang Yudong's father, saw that his daughter liked Gu Yizhou and made it clear that she wanted to marry Gu Yizhou. He asked his wife to go to Lu Wan'er to talk about the in-laws, but was directly rejected by Gu Yizhou.

Huang Yudong accidentally saw Gu Yizhou talking to Lin Qingyan on the phone, so he sent someone to check on Lin Qingyan. Huang Yudong was also responsible for the interception of Lin Qingyan's notice.

Even when Gu Yizhou wanted to go down to investigate in person, the political commissar issued a false order that he must stay in Beijing and wait for orders.

A few days ago, when Gu Yizhou was taking Lin Qingyan to the guesthouse in Beijing, he was seen by a confidant of the political commissar, which led to Gu Yizhou's temporary mission.

This mission was the last chance the political commissar gave to his daughter. He wanted to use this mission to allow them to develop feelings for each other, but he did not expect that Gu Yizhou was so determined to refuse, which led to Huang Yudong's breakdown and was discovered by the enemy spies in advance.

"The course of this matter has been thoroughly investigated. That's it. Political Commissar Huang has been given an administrative warning, and Comrade Huang Yudong has been expelled from the party and punished for his post.

Yizhou's compensation will be made up after he recovers from his injury and returns to the army, and it is likely that we will make another small step forward."

The chief explained the punishment for the relevant personnel and the compensation for Gu Yizhou. Old Man Gu was silent for a while and nodded to accept the result.
