Quick Wear: After Saving the Cannon Fodder, I Became a God

Chapter 387 The Poor Educated Youth Forced to Go to the Countryside 59

It was only a year after Gu Mingzhe's death that they received the ashes sent back by his superiors, without even a single personal belonging.

Before that, they didn't know what he was doing or why he died.

However, they could vaguely sense that he was doing something extraordinary, so they did not dare to disturb him or write to him. They would only reply if he contacted them first.

Gu Mingzhe had previously studied abroad and also studied physics.

Because the country needed him, he racked his brains to come up with various ways to come back from abroad and resolutely dedicated himself to contribute to the country.

After returning to China, he was entrusted with an important task and went to work in a research institute in the capital.

Not long after, he was sent to Heilongjiang Province by his superiors on a business trip, and stayed there for three years.

In fact, the reason why Gu Mingzhe was sent to Heilongjiang Province was because when he came back from abroad, he received the results of a project he participated in at a foreign research institute.

In order to protect him, the leader demoted him on the surface, but in reality he was sent to Heilongjiang Province to stay out of the spotlight and avoid being noticed.

It has to be said that this strategy was successful. He stayed in Heilongjiang Province for three years and hid for three years.

Over the past three years, he has also been conducting research in the underground research institute.

Finally, one day three years later, he and his colleagues at the institute successfully solved the problem, resulting in a breakthrough in the project.

Just two months after his colleagues in the laboratory reported the project, Gu Mingzhe was discovered by spies and died tragically at home.

It was not until the next day that a colleague who came to visit discovered it.

According to the leader who came to comfort them, there was a traitor in the group, and when the project report appeared, Gu Mingzhe was exposed.

The spy was unable to prevent the results from being submitted, so he could only kill Gu Mingzhe, the so-called thief.

In order to appease them, the organization not only gave them a large pension, but also promoted Gu Mingli's husband.

Their family also successfully transformed from ordinary businessmen to the family of the first-class merit owner.

On the surface, one’s social status is much higher and one has a lot of personal connections.

Their whole family benefited a lot from Gu Mingzhe's research results and his death, but no one was really happy.

Their family was not short of money, otherwise they would not have been able to send Gu Mingzhe and Gu Mingli to study abroad.

Gu Mingli’s husband is a politician, because they knew that at that time, having money but no background was basically putting themselves in trouble.

Therefore, when choosing a son-in-law and husband, the two elders of the Gu family and Gu Mingli considered a lot.

It just so happened that the administrative secretary Mu Lingjiang was launching a fierce pursuit of Gu Mingli at the time, and even said that if Gu Mingli was willing to agree to marry him, he promised that their children would take the surname Gu.

This was not only a verbal promise, but also a written agreement he made in front of the two elders of the Gu family.

Just this point alone made Gu Mingli excited.

At that time, she didn't know why she cared so much about this. It was not until her brother got into trouble that she realized that this was a kind of induction between blood relatives.

Not only did they have only a vague idea that Gu Mingzhe had a wife and daughter, even his colleagues in the research lab did not know about it.

They didn't even know how on earth he had the time.

Maybe Gu Mingzhe was afraid that what he did would implicate his wife and daughter, so he kept it a secret.

Ever since learning of Gu Mingzhe's death, their family has been depressed for a long time.

No one is willing to accept and believe this.

Why did my son and brother who had not returned home for three years on business trip suddenly die?

They hadn’t seen each other for more than three years, but suddenly they received such bad news. The two elders of the Gu family fell ill all of a sudden.

Gu Mingli lost a child due to the double blow of her brother's death and her parents' illness and hospitalization.

It was precisely because of this aborted child that everyone in the family suddenly cheered up.

Their family can no longer accept losing anyone else.

After the whole family forced themselves to forget the sad event, the next year, Gu Mingli became pregnant with Gu Liufang.

The arrival of this child is simply a reassurance.

It not only soothed the uneasy hearts of the two elders of the Gu family, but also soothed Gu Mingli's painful heart.

Gradually, the situation of the whole family was getting better.

But when it comes to looking for Gu Mingzhe's wife and daughter, everyone always goes with anticipation but returns with disappointment.

They were already disheartened by this.

But I didn't expect that when I sent my precious daughter and my naughty son to school, I actually saw a girl who looked somewhat similar to my brother and whose name was Gu Qian!

Gu Mingli's panic and anxiety that had been buried for many years were aroused again.

Her heart told her with certainty that this was her brother's daughter, it had to be!

She was afraid that all this was fake, and even more afraid that the child would not want to recognize them.

She wanted to know everything desperately, but she couldn't open her mouth.

When she saw Liufang speaking, she breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time laughed at herself in her heart: When did I become so cowardly?

But I never expected that my sister-in-law would also pass away!

Why is that?

When did my sister-in-law die? How did the child do afterwards?

"Sister Qianqian, I'm sorry, I didn't know..." Gu Liufang said in a trembling voice.

"It doesn't matter. My mom died when I was four. I don't care that much now."

Four years old!

Another bolt from the blue hit Gu Liufang and Gu Mingli.

Gu Mingli couldn't hold it in any longer. "Then...then how did you live alone for so many years?"

"Hmm..." Gu Qian pretended to be embarrassed and didn't say anything. She made the bed silently by herself.

When Xia Fangli saw that they mentioned Gu Qian’s sad story, she felt a little sorry for her.

"Um...don't ask me that. This is the first time we've met. Why are you asking me that? You're just bringing up other people's sad stories for no reason!"

After hearing what Xia Fangli said, Gu Mingli realized that she was a bit abrupt.

But she really couldn't help it.

If I tell Qianqian now that they are her relatives, she will definitely not believe it.

We must find an opportunity to talk to her alone. It’s better not to alert her now and hurt her feelings.

"Yes, yes, Auntie, I'm being abrupt. Why are you asking these questions when you're meeting for the first time? I won't ask them anymore."

"Yes, Sister Qianqian, I'm sorry, I won't ask again."

"It's okay, I'm used to it, it's nothing."

"Sister Qianqian, to express our apologies, shall we treat you to a meal?"

"No, it's really nothing."

"No, no, you have to treat me. Sister Qianqian, let's just make it a deal, okay? We'll go when you're free." Gu Liufang pulled Gu Qian's hand and acted coquettishly.

"Uh"

Faced with Gu Liufang's coquettish behavior, Gu Qian was actually a little at a loss as to what to do.

After all, they were not familiar with each other, not as familiar as she and Xia Fangli.
