Men and women eating in the courtyard

Just like the local security team in the movie, this is exactly what Li Xuewu saw before his eyes.

When he was in the army, he led the team, and when he returned home, he started by rectifying the team and leading the team. The most unsightly thing was that he was disorganized.

But look at it now, Dachun and the others have perfectly hit all the points that Li Xuewu cares about.

Not only did he step on it, but he also had to ravage Li Xuewu's nerves with a playful smile.

If these people are not sent to the mountain to be tidied up, how dare they be left here as guards?

What kind of place is this? This is the headquarters of the Dongcheng Dharma System. If we really let these guys stay here~,

hey-hey! Li Xuewu, the deputy director in charge of security training and patrol, the deputy director in charge of the security department of the steel rolling mill, was really embarrassed to the extreme.

After waving these people away and going back to pack their luggage, Li Xuewu smiled bitterly at Sister Lou and said, "I thought it would be good if two or three people came, but I didn't expect so many to come."

Sister Lou also smiled helplessly and said: "I thought you didn't trust the service here and asked these people to be waiters."

"forget it"

Li Xuewu grinned and said: "If I really hang the sign "Do not beat customers at will" on the wall, then sooner or later this club will become pornographic, and they will be the waiters? Haha."

Seeing what Li Xuewu said was interesting, Sister Lou also smiled, raised her eyes and said, "What are you doing standing here? Let's go and talk in the office."

"Don't go!"

Hearing what Sister Lou said, Li Xuewu replied as if on conditioned reflex.

But seeing that Sister Lou's face was wrong, she quickly explained: "We have guests at home at noon, otherwise I can arrange the party in the evening!"

After saying that, he changed the subject, pointed in the direction of the kitchen and asked, "Have you found the cook? Do you need me to call someone over to help?"

"No need~"

Sister Lou looked at Li Xuewu suspiciously, always feeling that he was lying, but she could only introduce him: "My father found the old chef in our family, and his skills are still good."

"That's good, that's good"

Li Xuewu smiled and nodded, motioned to the door and said, "Then I have to go back quickly. I'll come over early when I'm done with my work in the afternoon. Let's talk about it later."

Sister Lou didn't know that he was perfunctory with her, but she still said unconvincingly: "Then you should come here early~"

"Definitely, no problem!"

Li Xuewu smiled, waved his hand, jumped into the car, started the car and drove back.

When I got home, I called the Public Security Brigade and asked what time the supply truck of the 816th Regiment would leave. When I heard that they hadn't left yet, I asked the team to take a long detour to the club to help bring some people. Go up the mountain.

After putting down the phone, Li Xuewu called the training ground again and asked Wei Tong, the person in charge, who said that there were twenty-six trainees going up the mountain around noon.

Li Xuewu was really good at it. What he told Wei Tong on the phone was that these twenty-six people were from the security department of Dongfeng Club and were trained according to a full set of high standards.

They must be trained hard and seriously, and everything that can be taught will be arranged, including special skills such as long and short guns, blasting and rescue.

Then there is the fire protection. The club’s security department must have a part-time fire protection function.

The club's mansions are all made of wooden structures, so fire protection is a must.

As for the training expenses and food and drink, Li Xuewu asked Wei Tong to keep the accounts, and the client would record the expenses of Dongfeng Club and calculate them together later.

The Dongfeng Club's accounts are still under the control of Sister Lou, and all the funds are advanced by Sister Lou. Li Xuewu doesn't feel bad about spending it.

This training ground belongs to the steel rolling mill. Although the recycling station also has a share, the most is a discount, which will not look bad on the account.

Besides, the club here is collective, and when the money comes, it will be repaid naturally, including the advance payment made by Sister Lou, and there won’t be any difference.

As for the Security Section, it is actually simple. The unit is collective, so naturally you can apply for the establishment of the Security Section.

Moreover, Li Xuewu can help with the application and approval of the Security Department, including firearms procedures.

It's impossible not to arrange security here. There are still few people here, but that doesn't mean there will be less people in the future.

The current equipment and facilities are not fully laid out, but in the future there will be hotels, and functional areas such as movie theaters, gyms, shooting ranges, guest houses, etc. will all be opened, and there will be more people.

As long as there are too many people, there will always be conflicts, and the function of defense is to prevent this from happening.

Another one is the sense of mystery. The club is not open to the public, so someone will definitely try their best to get in.

If you can't get in through membership, you'll have to resort to other tricks, so the security department is very necessary, and even law enforcement rights must be applied for.

Of course, in this collective, club-like unit, the function of the security department is very simple, and it is not open to the outside world.

Li Xuewu doesn't need them to talk to the outside world, as long as they can manage the club's safety and fire safety well.

The powers and functions of the club management office are being improved little by little, such as the houses and equipment facilities that are currently being renovated, and the functional areas that are being built, etc.

Li Xuewu needs a group of loyal members to grow with the club.

These current members are very suitable, capable and willing, and will definitely become the backbone of the club in the future.

This is also the reason why Li Xuewu does not plan to recruit new people now, and cultivates relationships layer by layer.

We need to form a natural hierarchy in the club, and we also need to make time a natural barrier to divide members into different levels.

Members who come in first will have a sense of honor and a sense of belonging to the club.

People's hearts are the rules, and members' loyalty can be cultivated without gold or silver cards.

"Is there anything else?"

Gu Ning walked in from outside, looked at what Li Xuewu wrote after putting down the phone, and asked.

Li Xuewu turned his head and glanced at Gu Ning. Seeing that she was ready, he asked with a smile: "Old lady, are they all ready?"

"Um"

Gu Ning responded, walked over, looked at the notes written by Li Xuewu, and said, "Go back early, I'm afraid she won't be able to do it alone."

"knew"

Li Xuewu smiled, finished writing the last few words, closed the notebook and put it in his handbag, picked it up and followed Gu Ning out of the house.

The house here is not locked. Yu Li comes to clean it every day. She still has a key. If Li Xuewu and the others leave, Yu Li will naturally come back and lock it.

When they entered the front yard, the neighbors smiled when they saw the young couple and asked, "Are you going back now?"

And Li Xuewu just replied: "There are guests at home at noon."

Talking and laughing, simple greetings and questions and answers made Gu Ning feel a little yearning.

Maybe she never dreamed that one day she would live in such a compound, and she never thought that there would be such an atmosphere in such a compound.

The laughter and bustle last night, the people enjoying the cool air, and the running children all became Gu Ning's perception and impression of the courtyard.

Entering the front yard, the old lady was leading Li Shu out clumsily, followed by Liu Yin and Zhao Yafang.

It was already past nine o'clock in the morning, and the sun was shining brightly. Li Shu didn't feel the sun even though she was wearing a hat. After walking a few steps, she would look back at her grandparents. When she saw her grandparents walking slowly, she would wave to her to keep up. .

"Are you asking grandma to come to your house?"

"Ouch~!"

"Hahaha~"

Li Xuewu came closer and wanted to hug his daughter, but Li Shu twisted her body and avoided her, indicating that she wanted to leave by herself.

Everyone smiled and watched her play, and at the same time talked to the neighbors who came in and out.

When they reached the threshold of the Chuihua Gate, Li Shu was in trouble. Li Xuewu took the opportunity to pick up his daughter and coaxed her to the west courtyard.

"Let's go now. If we don't go back, we'll have lunch."

When Li Xuewu saw that his daughter was still showing off her temper and went off to the ground, he smiled and patted his daughter on the buttocks, and said in a fright: "Mother will be angry again~"

Li Shu stopped and glanced at her mother behind her father with her big eyes, then she stopped making trouble.

have to! Li Xuewu finally knew that Gu Ning had to be the one to blame in this family.

When they got into the car, Li Xuewu caught fire, and Li Shu started to cheat again. Fei took Liu Yin's hand and asked her grandma to get in the car, which made Liu Yin feel distressed.

In the end, Li Xuewu gave a scare and drove the car out of the west courtyard.

——

"You can't bear to leave it~"

Yu Li walked out of the sales department with a smile. Seeing that Zhao Yafang had gone back and Liu Yin was still standing there looking at the entrance of the alley, she made a joke.

Liu Yin also smiled and replied: "It's not that bad. The older this child gets, the more rare he becomes."

"If it's rare, just go and see it. It's not that far away."

Yu Li was good at coaxing people. She came over and hugged Liu Yin's arm, and said with a smile: "It only costs a few cents to take the bus."

"How can I have time~"

In fact, Liu Yin also missed her granddaughter and the old lady, and was afraid that the old lady wouldn't be used to living there.

It's been two weeks since we moved here, and I just follow the old lady's attitude. Even if there is any inconvenience, she won't say anything, and she doesn't want to cause trouble for her children.

What's more, it's even harder for someone who lives with his grandson to speak.

But now that Yu Li was here, Liu Yin was persuaded to calm down.

"Hi~ You are so true!"

Yu Li advised: "Even if you take the bus for only a few stops during the day and have lunch there before coming back, you won't have to worry about it at home."

"Say it again~"

Yu Li gently shook Liu Yin and said, "You and Avon are the only ones at home during the day. Why don't you eat this meal?"

"Haha, let's talk about it later"

Liu Yin smiled and patted Yu Li's hand, then muttered something perfunctory.

This woman says she has nothing to do at home, but once she gets busy, she doesn't stop. The day flies by, and she has so much free time.

The eldest daughter-in-law is pregnant, the younger daughter-in-law comes often, and she has to help Li Shun prepare Chinese medicinal materials, which is a lot to worry about.

"Hey~ It's you"

Liu Yin looked at Yu Li and asked, "Why don't you come home from work and take a look?"

But she knew that Yu Li and the others all had off-duty time, so they could rest if they worked together.

Yu Li shook her head and said, "It's too far away. I'm too lazy to take the bus. A few days ago, my brother took a break from work to visit me. I gave him my things to take back."

Accompanying Liu Yin to the courtyard, Yu Li also said helplessly: "My father is a hot-tempered man. He doesn't want me to be off work and delay the business here. He said that he has nothing to worry about at home, so don't come back, haha~"

"Then you have to go back often to take a look."

Liu Yin said with a smile: "Old people are like this. They say they don't want to, but in fact they are looking forward to their children coming back to see them."

Yu Li sent Liu Yin to the screen door, nodded and said: "The new Wang Yamei hasn't been brought out yet. I will go back and take a look when she has learned enough."

Liu Yin smiled and nodded, patted Yu Li's hand and said, "You have something to say, don't worry about it."

But Yu Li smiled and gave Liu Yin a hand and said, "What's the trouble? You're watching me every day when I work here."

The two get along well now. Liu Yin always calls Yu Li to help when there is something at home. Li Xuewu leaves the backyard house to Yu Li to take care of, but Liu Yin doesn't even ask.

This relationship seems very complicated, but it is also very simple.

Yu Li watched Liu Yin enter the front yard, and she also entered the sitting room. It was her turn to make lunch today.

When Li Xuewu and the others came out just now, Yu Li should have come over to prepare meals, but she just waited for Li Xuewu's car to leave before coming out.

Liu Yin must have noticed something, so she said those words to her.

It's impossible to say that she didn't have any ideas in her heart, but Li Xuewu never asked her what she thought before or after her marriage, and he obviously didn't want to let her go.

But now that Li Xuewu comes home every week, she doesn't see Li Xuewu taking the initiative to look for her, and she doesn't dare to take the initiative to look for Li Xuewu.

It seemed that Li Xuewu had forgotten her, but he often appeared in front of her.

This feeling is actually very hard and tiring, but Yu Li still has the determination to persevere.

What's worse than Qin Huairu is that she doesn't have as much freedom as Qin Huairu. She works in the same factory as Li Xuewu.

As for her, she circles around the recycling bin every day, and she can't get out of this circle no matter what.

But Li Xuewu didn't owe her anything. He gave her a house and a life. Now she was not qualified to ask Li Xuewu for anything.

She also wanted to say a few more words to Li Xuewu last night, but he was holding the child and talking about things, so she only had time to look at him a few times.

Before Li Xuewu got married, she didn't think there would be much change, but after getting married, especially after Li Shu followed him, she could clearly see the changes in Li Xuewu.

At least she could tell that Li Xuewu's thoughts were less here, which was also related to the less time he lived here.

Xilin and the others didn't feel that many people were missing after the inaugurating house left, but when Li Xuewu didn't come, everyone felt as if something was missing.

As soon as Saturday came, everyone seemed to be looking forward to something, but Li Xuewu came back, and everyone seemed to be more enthusiastic about eating.

This may be the extent of Li Xuewu's popularity, or it may be that he has subtly left an irreplaceable position in everyone's hearts.

Yu Li originally thought about whether she would follow Li Xuewu to live in his new home, but she hesitated. After all, her house had just been built.

Then there's the fact that she herself doesn't want to give up the job she worked so hard to win because of these things.

For women at this time, having a job and not having a job were two different things. A daughter who married with a salary was not subject to the control of her husband's family.

As for those who don’t get paid, haven’t we all seen it in this courtyard? How difficult it was for Qin Huairu in the past.

Maybe Li Xuewu saw her dilemma between working and going to her new home, so he didn't mention it again, which made her think too much today.

One reason that made her think more was Qin Huairu's sister - Qin Jingru.

Everyone can see how charming that little girl is, the key is that she looks good and has a good figure.

Although he is not tall, he has everything he should have. Otherwise, Qin Huairu's family really has this gene.

Qin Huairu is like this, with a tender face and a curvy face, which is most rare for men.

Yu Li knows her own thing. If you want to say she is slim, she is slim, but her figure is not that good.

It's not that I'm afraid of anything between Qin Jingru and Li Xuewu, it's just that I have random thoughts in my heart from time to time, and I always feel like I regret it again.

Yu Li envied Qin Jingru, and Qin Jingru also envied herself~

Yesterday, I walked up and down the villa. I was so addicted to relaxation that I imagined how great it would be if I owned such a big house.

She felt the study room upstairs, the desk where Gu Ning often sat, the small living room where she drank tea, the gramophone that played records, and even the big bed in the master bedroom.

She didn't sleep very well that night either, playing games and dreaming, and she also woke up from dreaming and laughing in the morning.

When she looked at the time, she remembered that there were still guests to entertain at noon today, and Li Xuewu and the others would be back early. However, she shattered her princess dream and hurriedly started to clean up.

I didn't even eat breakfast. After I tidied the house, I went out to buy groceries with my basket in hand.

The residential area here is not far from the vegetable market. I hurriedly bought vegetables and went to the supply and marketing cooperative nearby.

Because I had a few dollars from Li Xuewu in my pocket, I had the courage to pick out a few cosmetics and look at them.

It wasn't until the waiter got impatient that she chose a box of face wipes and bought the expensive ones, just to be afraid that the salesperson would look down on her.

She is also thinking too much. Who does the salesperson in this supply and marketing cooperative think highly of?

Even if she said she wanted to buy a bicycle, people would just treat it as normal. How could she look down upon her with a box of colorful bicycles?

But Qin Jingru was very satisfied. Her sister had a box at her sister's house, but she couldn't bear to wipe it off.

If she tried to wipe it off, she would always be ridiculed by Jia Zhang.

Now that she has her own, Qin Jingru can't wait to go back to the courtyard right now, smear this box on her face, and make Jia Zhang, who looks down on her, jealous.

When they were almost done shopping, Qin Jingru thought of going back, but when she arrived at the door of her house, she was shocked because the door was open.

When she entered the yard with fear, Li Xuewu and the others were really back.

The roof of the garage is sealed with cement and needs to be maintained. Workers will not come to seal the soil until tomorrow, so no one is working here today.

When I saw that the courtyard door was open, either a thief had broken in, or Li Xuewu and the others were back.

It's easy to talk to thieves, but she would be even more scared if Li Xuewu really said something to her.

Fortunately, when she entered the hospital, she saw Li Xuewu carrying two bags of vegetables and two bags of beef and mutton from the trunk of the car, but he ignored her.

Consciously closing the door, the bird quietly walked along the side of the car to go back to the house.

But Li Xuewu carried the meat and vegetables, looked at her and said, "Next time if you don't go back, you have to tell your sister. You also know the phone number of your sister's workplace. If you don't know how to call, just ask me. Don't get lost." ".

"I know...I know"

Qin Jingru lowered her head and grinned. She thought Li Xuewu was going to scold her for coming back late, but she didn't expect to mention her coming home.

When he thought of this, he raised his head again and asked, "My sister is asking me?"

"What do you think?"

Li Xuewu walked into the house from the other side of the car with drooped eyelids, muttering in his mouth: "You thought I sold you~"

"Can't~"

Qin Jingru chased Li Xuewu into the house and explained: "I'm not going anywhere else. Besides, there's no place for me to go in this city. How can I run around~"

"That's because your sister is worried about you!"

Li Xuewu glanced at her and went to the kitchen carrying meat and vegetables. The old lady and Gu Ning also came out to help after they had settled down.

Gu Ning asked Li Xuewu to wash his hands and take care of Li Shu, while she rolled up her sleeves and wanted to go into the kitchen to help.

"Forget it, you should coax the child."

Li Xuewu was really worried about Gu Ning entering the kitchen. It was not helping, it was causing trouble.

This daughter-in-law has never been in the kitchen since she was a child, and her mother doesn't ask her to raise her hands.

Even washing the dishes makes me feel scared, and it is not enough to waste time.

Li Xuewu washed his hands with the kitchen water, sat at the dining table, and began to choose dishes as the old lady asked.

Gu Ning also knew what his "strength" was, so he hugged Li Shu and sat at the dining table with some embarrassment, imitating Li Xuewu and choosing dishes.

Li Shu, on the other hand, saw something new and wanted to help while grabbing the food from Gu Ning's hand.

The old lady spread a small mat on the dining table and asked Gu Ning to hold Li Shu and sit on the small mat. She also gave Li Shu a stick of beans to calm her down.

Li Shu's vision was better now. There were dishes in front of her. Seeing her parents sitting on both sides, she also learned to choose the dishes.

The old lady soaked the beef and mutton in water. While she and Qin Jingru were busy, she smiled at Li Xuewu and explained: "I took Xuewu and his friends like this when they were young."

Li Xuewu looked at Li Shu in surprise, and then asked the old lady: "I also helped you choose vegetables when I was a child?"

"Hey~ you really know how to think~"

The old lady smiled and said: "It's enough for Amitabha if you don't cause trouble to me. One day it will stop."

Li Xuewu originally wanted to use the old lady's words to show his face in front of his wife and children, but he unexpectedly showed up.

Gu Ning pursed her lips and smiled. Seeing Li Xuewu's threatening eyes, she had no choice but to lower her head and not look at him.

The four members of the family were busy chatting, and the meal was quickly coming out. After the first dish was out of the oven, the doorbell rang in the house.

Li Xuewu got up, went to the gate and opened it.

"sister in law"

The first person to see them was Mu Hongyan, and then Li Xuewu opened the door for everyone and greeted them with a smile: "I am young, so I will call you eldest sister."

"Hey, Director Li is really good at talking!"

"Hahaha~"

"How else could Dr. Gu know how to choose a partner~"

…

Li Xuewu only felt the sound of hundreds of ducks coming from his ears. This was really the case with so many women.

Seeing Li Xuewu's expression, Mu Hongyan also smiled and let everyone go into the courtyard. Gu Ning had already come down from the steps to pick them up with Li Shu in his arms.

"Yo~ This is your home..."

Zhang Xiulan, who said hello first, saw Li Shu and wanted to say something, but she didn't know how to say it at the moment and almost froze.

Fortunately, Gu Ning answered the question quickly. Today, it was Li Xuewu who set up the stage and asked her to sing, just to improve the relationship between colleagues, so that they would be embarrassed as soon as they entered the door.

"My daughter's name is Li Shu"

Gu Ning introduced with a smile, then took Li Shu's little hand and waved it to his colleagues, introducing: "Call Auntie~"

Li Shu stared at the women who came in with her big eyes, and looked at Gu Ning with some fear.

Gu Ning also saw that she was a little afraid of the crowd, so she smiled and let everyone go inside first.

When Zhang Xiulan entered the courtyard, she took a look at the layout of the courtyard. Not to mention the small courtyard, but she could tell that this villa was different.

Especially the surrounding buildings are very different from the villas here. At first glance, they have history and elegance.

When I entered the villa again, I was a little surprised by the furniture and spacious layout design inside.

The doctors in Gu Ning's department all come from some backgrounds. Even though they are from ordinary backgrounds, they have never seen what kind of environment they have been in as doctors for so many years.

However, there is something different about the doctor's house. Perhaps it is because of the young age of the owner, which is in sharp contrast to the Republic of China-style decoration, which makes these people envious.

Li Xuewu took Li Shu from Gu Ning, smiled and invited everyone to sit in the living room, and also asked Gu Ning to sit with them and talk.

But these female doctors obviously knew what kind of character Gu Ning was. When they arrived at Gu Ning's house, they wouldn't be embarrassed, and they all turned the topic to him.

"Where does Director Li usually work~"

"When did Director Li and Dr. Gu meet~"

"..."

Seeing that Li Xuewu was coping well, Mu Hongyan smiled and teased Li Shu. Seeing that Li Shu was not afraid of her, he took her over and went to the restaurant to meet the old lady.

She had met the old lady several times, but she showed great respect. She could see the self-cultivation of the old lady of the Li family.

I came to the restaurant to make room for those people, and also to see the little nanny.

When she saw that she was still a girl, she believed in her heart what Li Xuewu told her last time.

There was no cat in the world who would put a fish in his mouth and refuse to eat it, not to mention that this fish was fresher and looked more delicious than the two fish she had seen.

The dining room was busy, but the living room was talking and laughing, and everyone got up again to tour the house.

How could Li Xuewu go to the second floor with other women? After all, that was where they slept, so he asked Gu Ning to lead everyone upstairs.

He himself took care of the few who stayed downstairs to look at the piano and goldfish, introduced the flowers and plants at home, and also laughed and chatted about his daily life with Gu Ning.

In just a few words, Gu Ning's colleagues had another understanding of Li Xuewu.

On the wedding day, I was surprised and distant when I saw Li Xuewu. I was shocked when I saw the wedding guests and his social circle.

But today, I saw that Li Xuewu was an ordinary person with life and warmth, chatting with them about homely things.

Speaking of this level, none of the people here are higher than Li Xuewu. Even if their respective men are as good as Li Xuewu, they are all over thirty years old.

Especially since Li Xuewu was so young and had such a good personality, everyone felt that Dr. Gu had found a treasure.

People downstairs felt that Dr. Gu had found a treasure, but those upstairs who visited the study and saw the words on the wall felt that Dr. Gu had struck a gold mine.

They all knew something about Li Xuewu. After all, Gu Ning's mother, Li Xuewu's mother-in-law, also introduced some things about Li Xuewu at the wedding.

As gossip lovers, they had a general understanding of Li Xuewu as soon as they asked people in the Dongcheng area about Li Xuewu.

When I saw the words on the wall again, I was shocked. I knew that this person was very capable, knowledgeable, and could handle cases and write books, but I didn't expect to receive such recognition from above.

When they saw the model worker certificate that Li Xuewu had just received hanging on the wall, everyone felt envious again.

The look she looked at Gu Ning was no longer the same suspicious look as before, but instead turned into one filled with envy for her talent and beauty.

In the past, they all suspected that Dr. Gu's target was either from the same family as hers, or that he wanted to make something through their family.

Now I don't think so anymore. If we really have these things, we can't go wrong without relying on the Gu Ning family.

But these things can't be obtained by relying on Gu Ning's family, and they can still handle this kind of relationship.

Zhang Xiulan took Gu Ning's hand and asked with a smile: "Tell me, how do you get so many awards, especially for model workers? Why don't you tell me!"

Gu Ning was also a little embarrassed when asked by his colleagues, and explained: "He didn't tell me, and I only saw these certificates after he got them back."

"Oh~ Doctor Gu, this one of yours is really deep!"

Those who were envious said: "If someone gets it, they would like to spread it all over the world, but this one in your family hides it and doesn't say anything, just shows it to you~"

However, Zhang Xiulan also laughed and joked: "Dr. Gu's lover is only twenty years old, and now he is so profound. Otherwise, why would he be the director of the department?"

Gu Ning heard Li Xuewu downstairs calling them to eat, so he took them downstairs again, but also explained: "He never takes home what he says about work, and he doesn't ask me about work. Home is rest”.

"Look~"

Zhang Xiulan took Gu Ning's hand and said with a smile: "Look at this happiness~"

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Li Xuewu stood downstairs, not knowing what was laughing upstairs. When they came down, he smiled and invited them to sit in the restaurant.

But the female doctors who came down from upstairs looked at him with burning eyes, and even praised him if they had something to say.

Li Xuewu was also a little confused by the praise. He didn't know how he caught the attention of these elder sisters.

Gu Ning also walked behind, waiting for these people to enter the restaurant before giving Li Xuewu a few reminders.

Li Xuewu also smiled helplessly and said: "I originally wanted to show off to my daughter. When she goes to school, I will compete with her to see who has won more certificates. I have no intention of showing off to your colleagues."

Gu Ning, however, glanced at Li Xuewu with a bit of pride. He didn't say anything, but the corner of his mouth was slightly raised, and he entered the restaurant with some pride.

Li Xuewu was praised by her colleagues for her grades, which made her feel happier and prouder than when she herself was praised for her grades.

These colleagues of Gu Ning also knew why Gu Ning invited them here today. They said it was to make up for their marriage, but in fact it was just to have a relationship with them.

Gu Ning used to be much more introverted than she is now, and basically didn't talk. But now, it seems that her lover has a lot of influence.

Everyone looked at the table full of dishes and understood what Li Xuewu was thinking.

Especially Zhang Xiulan met Li Xuewu at the door two days ago. When she returned to the office, everyone knew that it was Deputy Director Li who would not have invited them if Dr. Gu took the initiative.

Being so young, yet so friendly, yet so capable, and having seen everything, everyone silently made a mental note of how they should get along with Gu Ning.

He was originally a person with a high status and background that no leader in the hospital dared to mess with. Now he was such a courteous corporal and treated him cordially. Everyone knew that he was a good person.

To be honest, when they said that Gu Ning was too much, it was just because Gu Ning didn't fit in with others. And because Gu Ning seldom spoke, Gu Ning was naturally the subject of discussion.

But if you really think about it, Dr. Gu is very simple and quiet. She doesn't talk about this or pay attention to that. She comes from such a family and her sister-in-law has such a fierce temper, but she and her sister-in-law have never bullied anyone in the office.

When they thought of this, they understood that it was abnormal for someone to be powerful and polite but not domineering. How could they force someone to be tough?

Everyone looked at each other, raised their glasses, and swung the red wine in their glasses. The atmosphere suddenly became lively.

They are all smart people. Seeing that everyone understood what he meant, Li Xuewu also frequently persuaded everyone to drink and eat more vegetables.

The whole family came together today, and even Li Shu "helped". This meal was really made with care.

Especially Li Xuewu was ingenious and prepared red wine for everyone, which was very suitable for these female doctors.

The dishes on the table also have more meat, eggs and vegetables, less green vegetables, and there is enough oil and water in the dishes. Everyone knows that the host is full of sincerity.

At this time, even those whose families are very wealthy do not dare to eat and drink extravagantly. Saving is the main theme at this time.

Today was a day of good wine and delicious food. Everyone accepted Li Xuecheng's love, so they all took the initiative to clink glasses with Gu Ning and joke around.

Gu Ning had Li Xuewu by her side, as well as her family and children, but she also tried to open up her heart and slowly adapted to respond to the politeness of her colleagues.

She is also slowly learning and feeling the joy of this kind of social interaction.

Loneliness naturally has its advantages of self-confidence and thinking, but it also caused her to encounter a lot of troubles in real life.

After all, you need to face some things on your own in life. Even with the protection of her lover, she took the first step of socializing even more strongly.

Perhaps because of the red wine, everyone's faces were red, but no one asked Li Xuewu to fight for wine.

One is because they are all educated people, and they all have their own self-cultivation and reserve even at the wine table.

The second one is that everyone remembers Li Xuewu's alcohol test at the wedding. No matter who he is, he will be afraid of such a person who will never get drunk after a thousand drinks.

Li Xuewu actually thinks that these people have a bit of a petty bourgeois sentiment, especially those who drink red wine, laugh and talk about poems or articles, or talk about accidents and stories in the hospital. From the perspective of understanding and these opinions, Li Xuewu could feel it, it was quite boring.

But they are all married women, and they are all around thirty years old, so aren't they all in this stage?

With ideals in mind, facing the helpless reality, I have had dreams and pursuits, but I have to show my mature and annoying side.

Gu Ning was still relatively young compared to them, so they were the ones talking and Gu Ning listened.

Gu Ning was also taught and taught by Li Xuewu to learn to listen when socializing and learn to understand and accept other people's opinions.

Even if these views don't agree with you, there is no need to argue about it, because social interaction is not a trial, and you need to decide what is right and what is wrong.

The old lady and Qin Jingru didn't drink, so they finished eating first and then got off the table with their children in their arms.

Li Xuewu was afraid that Gu Ning wouldn't be able to handle it alone, so he just sat beside him and chatted with her from time to time.

As hosts, the couple played the role of listeners, making the guests at the table feel comfortable talking.

Especially the one or two sentences that Li Xuewu added from time to time gave them the desire to continue talking and talk more.

Mu Hongyan has more contact with Li Xuewu. Now seeing that his colleagues are drinking a little too much, and with Li Xuewu's "adding fuel and jealousy", it seems that they are more familiar with Li Xuewu, and they wish they had found a soulmate. generally.

Now think about it, when I was talking to Li Xuewu, was I also amused by Li Xuewu's "praising" and couldn't help laughing.

It was so terrifying. Only now did Mu Hongyan see the horror of Li Xuewu, who was sitting there and listening to his colleagues with a smile.

He talks slowly and softly, and is gentle and elegant, which makes you feel like your heart is being ripped out without even realizing it.

Seeing the behavior of her colleagues, she couldn't help but feel a little shy and a little angry. This person was really bad and scary.

"Sister-in-law, have one more drink. You have the capacity to drink. Please accompany Gu Ning on behalf of the elder sisters."

Mu Hongyan, who secretly decided to be wary of Li Xuewu, was slightly off guard by Li Xuewu's words.

This is calling her sister-in-law, praising her drinking capacity, and moving Gu Ning out. Not only does she let her take care of her, but she also lets those called eldest sister know that they need to take care of Gu Ning.

How old is this phrase!

Well, it was Li Xuewu who said the whole thing, so Mu Hongyan could only pour half a glass of red wine from Li Xuewu and start drinking with his colleagues.

Seeing that her sister-in-law had been fooled by Li Xuewu again, Gu Ning couldn't help but glare at him.

Li Xuewu smiled and winked at her with his left eye, his eyes seeming to say: "No one can escape the clutches of social gangsters."

Gu Ning was also a little embarrassed by Li Xuewu's flying eyes, there were so many people.

Originally, the banquet was held at noon, so as not to delay everyone's work, let alone affect the afternoon work.

But when the table was served, with the delicious wine and delicacies, everyone couldn't hold it back any longer. With further persuasion, they drank more and more wine.

In the end, it was too late and everyone got off the table.

In the living room, Qin Jingru had already prepared tea, and when everyone came out, she poured them all a cup.

Li Xuewu also smiled and said: "Drink some tea, relieve the hangover, and take a short rest. Our home is also close to the hospital, so it won't be in the way."

Zhang Xiulan smiled and waved her hands and said: "Stop envying us. Don't be jealous when we see Dr. Gu walking to and from get off work~"

"Hahaha~" (End of this chapter)
