Chapter 318 He was immediately targeted upon arriving in Beijing.
Su Niannian got into the car amidst repeated urging.
The Gu family members all got on the bus.
"Take care, everyone! We'll come back when we have the chance," Su Niannian said, opening the car window and calling out to the people outside.
Despite the reluctance, the car slowly drove away.
At the entrance of Kaoshan Village, in an inconspicuous spot, Sun Siyuan stood there with a face full of resentment.
Watching the three cars slowly drive away, I was absolutely furious.
"Damn it, we still didn't find an opportunity. Su Niannian has already left Kaoshan Village."
"Damn it, I don't even know if we'll ever see each other again. I haven't gotten my revenge yet..."
Sun Siyuan spoke angrily, spitting on the ground, but no one could answer him.
The vehicle drove away from Kaoshan Village.
In the car in front, Xiao Yang was driving, Gu's mother was sitting in the passenger seat, Zhao Tian was sitting in the back holding Yangyang, and Gu Ningning was sitting on the other side.
The truck was originally driven by a driver, but he didn't get on and was left in Kaoshan Village.
In a while, we'll have to take an oxcart from Kaoshan Village back to the county town.
Zhou Qishan took over as the truck driver and sat in the driver's seat. Gu Zhendong was also assigned to the truck; after all, the truck was spacious, and Gu Zhendong, who had difficulty walking, would find it more comfortable to sit in the passenger seat.
The car behind was originally driven by Zhou Qishan, but now Gu Nan has taken over Zhou Qishan's position and is sitting in the driver's seat.
In the back seat sat Chief Lu and Old Master Bai, while Su Niannian sat in the passenger seat.
"Look how popular my granddaughter and her friends are. So many people came to see them off when they went to Beijing," Old Master Bai said to Chief Lu, who was sitting in the back seat of the car.
His words were laced with a boastful air.
"Gu Nan is so young and already a regimental commander, what's wrong with sending more people to see him off?"
Commander Lu believed it must be because his subordinates were exceptionally capable.
Actually, that's not true.
When Gu Nan and his family returned to Kaoshan Village, they were truly shunned by the entire village.
All these changes began when Su Niannian married into the Gu family.
However, Su Niannian and Gu Nan exchanged a glance, and neither of them said a word.
Let the two old men continue their competition; they'd be happy to see it.
As the car drove away, the figures behind grew smaller and smaller until they were completely out of sight.
"Don't be sad. We'll meet again someday." Gu Nan said when he saw that Su Niannian was in low spirits.
Su Niannian nodded.
Then the conversation shifted.
"You can actually drive this kind of car?" Su Niannian thought that her man was really amazing.
Not only is he skilled in carpentry and can kill wild boars with his bare hands, but he can also drive a car.
In this day and age, cars are extremely rare. I never expected that Gu Nan would know how to drive one.
Gu Nan simply smiled.
The old leader Lu immediately started his self-promotion mode.
"The youngest regimental commander in the unit, he has consistently ranked first in the unit in terms of physical strength and endurance. He could drive a car when he was seventeen or eighteen, and he drives it very well." Commander Lu said with pride, his face full of joy.
"Pshaw, isn't my granddaughter's medical skill far superior to yours? Do you know how difficult and dangerous your lousy surgery is? Not a single one of those experts is as good as Niannian."
Grandpa Bai needs to quickly praise Su Niannian; he can't let her be outshone.
"Gu Nan is very meticulous; he never fails to complete a mission," Chief Lu continued.
“Niannian is so beautiful. Have you ever seen such a beautiful young girl?” said Grandpa Bai.
"Alright," Su Niannian and Gu Nan exchanged a glance and then laughed.
These two old men are really something else; they never stop comparing themselves to each other.
However, Gu Nan and Su Niannian both loved to listen, the more they talked, the better.
Because there were three cars and three drivers, the journey to Beijing was filled with frequent stops and starts.
Drive during the day and stay in a hotel at night.
With Grandpa Bai and Chief Lu present, all the paperwork was in order, so finding a hotel was very convenient.
Because all three vehicles belonged to the military, the journey was smooth and there was no danger whatsoever.
After two days and two nights, the car finally entered Beijing on the morning of the third day.
The military family compound is located some distance from the city center, in the far suburbs of Beijing.
So the car drove for another two hours, and it wasn't until almost noon that it arrived at the military family compound.
After registering at the gate of the residential compound, the car drove in.
"I was worried you wouldn't be used to the place, so I found you a slightly secluded spot at the back, where it's quiet. Also, although all the houses there are the same size, that yard is a bit bigger than the others."
Commander Lu pointed to the courtyard not far away and said.
Although the military family compound is a single compound, it is divided into three parts.
Once inside, walk to the far left, and you'll find several large courtyards, all with two-story buildings, designed for high-ranking officials and military personnel.
On the left, several three-story buildings were added this year, with two to three households on each floor. The smaller rooms are 30 to 40 square meters, and the larger rooms are 80 to 90 square meters. They are multi-story buildings with running water.
After entering the gate, to the right are all independent courtyards, like those in rural courtyards, with brick and tile bungalows and courtyards.
They're all about the same size, three rooms with a yard.
Gu Nan's military rank only allows him to choose a courtyard on the right, or an apartment of about 80 or 90 square meters in a building.
Chief Lu and Grandpa Bai felt that with so many people, living in an apartment building might be inconvenient.
Therefore, they took it upon themselves to choose a courtyard house for Gu Nan, the innermost one with the largest space.
The vehicle was parked outside Gu Nan's yard.
Su Niannian couldn't wait to jump out of the car as soon as it was parked to take a look.
"Slow down!" Gu Nansheng was afraid that Su Niannian would bump into something, so he quickly opened the car door and followed her.
"Wow, this is pretty good." Su Niannian said, standing outside the yard.
Upon seeing this, Zhou Qishan quickly stopped the truck and got out first.
After all, Chief Lu had already handed him the key, and if he arrived late, he would probably get another scolding.
Zhou Qishan opened the courtyard gate and then handed the key to Su Niannian.
Only then did they go back to help Gu Zhendong out of the car.
Su Niannian wandered around in the yard and then went inside to take a look.
I think the space is quite large.
The three brick houses, though not as big as Gu Nan's house in Kaoshan Village, were not much different.
The room already had some furniture, but the only thing Su Niannian didn't like was that the bed was made of wooden planks instead of the earthen kang (heated platform bed) like in Northeast China.
Gu Nan followed closely behind Su Niannian, worried that she might bump into something.
After looking around, Su Niannian came out with a smile, thinking that this place was really nice.
The arrival of these three vehicles attracted considerable attention within the residential compound.
"Old Lu is back. Let's begin the plan." In a two-story detached building in the distance, a middle-aged man lit a cigarette, took a deep drag, and said to the two men standing in front of him.
