Time Travel Article: My parents divorced at the beginning

Ever since Gu Qingyu waved his sleeves and left the Jiang family that day, Duan Xuezhi was like a balloon that was constantly inflated. As her inner resentment grew day by day, it seemed that she would explode in the next second.

The two little ones saw all these changes, and they hid in their room in fear, not daring to take a single step. The huge house seemed particularly deserted without the usual noise of play.

That day, after Jiang Kejian finished dealing with the real estate of Old Lady Jiang, he finally had time to have a calm talk with Duan Xuezhi.

The two sat facing each other in the living room in silence. No one spoke. After a long while, Jiang Kejian took Duan Xuezhi's hand, stroking it gently, and said, "Xuezhi, haven't you noticed that the house has been very quiet lately?"

Quiet?

Duan Xuezhi thought back to the past few days at home. It was indeed quiet. Mingyue and Mingyang basically stayed in their rooms and didn't come out. Isn't that quiet?

"No matter what, we owe Qingyu. Since the child said so, we should let her go, don't you think?"

"There's something I haven't told you. The situation has been getting increasingly serious. I already disposed of the remaining Jiang family properties two days ago. If nothing unexpected happens, we'll both be transferred to the Third Front to avoid the limelight."

"In this situation, we should keep a low profile and avoid unnecessary trouble. You must not let your quarrel with the child lead to any further trouble. As far as I know, more than one group of people are targeting us. If any more complications arise, the situation will probably get even worse."

Duan Xuezhi's eyes widened in shock. For years, she had devoted herself to household chores, caring for her family wholeheartedly. All of this had been tacitly approved and supported by her husband, Jiang Kejian. Yet, now it seemed she was so utterly disconnected from the outside world!

"How could it be like this? I didn't feel anything at all!" Jiang Kejian's words diverted Duan Xuezhi's attention from her own family. Although she was obsessed with her family, Duan Xuezhi still had the political sensitivity she should have.

"Is the problem serious enough for the whole family to leave? Can we ask Uncle Chen for help?"

"Uncle Chen isn't having a good time either. I've talked to him, and he's planning to retire soon!"

"It was Uncle Chen who suggested we go to the Third Front. He has some old subordinates in the southwest, and he suggested we go there!"

Duan Xuezhi didn't expect the situation to be so critical. She suddenly felt that the quarrel between her and Gu Qingyu was nothing. If she really went to the southwest, she probably wouldn't know how many times she would see him again in this life!

forget it!

Gu Qingyu naturally didn't know that there was such a conversation happening at the Jiang family, so she continued to live her life as usual.

The days passed quickly and it was October in a blink of an eye. The Gu family of four was about to leave after the National Day.

The house originally allocated to Gu An also had to be vacated for the army, and Gu Qingyu had moved into the unit dormitory some time ago.

Gu An considered that it would be difficult to meet again after they were separated for so long, and it would be inconvenient for him to interfere in Gu Qingyu's marriage in the future, so he divided the family in advance.

At the Gu family breakfast table that day, Gu An said to everyone, "While everyone is here today, I plan to divide the house."

"Our family doesn't have any fixed assets. Your aunt's salary belongs to her personally and will be left to the two children in the future."

"The only money our family has divided up now is my salary and allowances from these years. Yesterday, I asked your aunt to count the money and there was a little over 3,000 left. I discussed this with your aunt and decided to leave 1,000 for you, Qingyu."

Gu Qingyu was very surprised that Gu Anlin would do this before leaving. She was a little surprised, but since Gu Anlin gave it to her, she would rather refuse it.

"I have no opinion!"

Gu Qingyu got a thousand yuan, plus the child support she had saved over the years, and now Gu Qingyu can be said to be a small wealthy woman. Looking at the more than three thousand yuan in the passbook, Gu Qingyu planned to ask someone to find a small courtyard house one day.

Many families are selling their properties and moving out of town due to the current situation, so this is a good time to buy a house. It will be difficult to buy a house with clear title later.

That day, Gu Qingyu sat quietly in her office, concentrating on reviewing the most recent purchase list with Sister Zhang. The newly appointed Director of the Revolutionary Committee, Wang Dahai, had specifically instructed all departments to carefully review their previous purchase lists at a general meeting. It was unclear whether this was a new official's first move or a case of Xiang Zhuang dancing with a sword, aiming for the Duke of Pei.

The atmosphere in the bureau had been a bit tense lately, with Gu Qingyu and her colleagues worried about the consequences of a fight between higher-ups. She and Sister Zhang carefully checked the name, quantity, and price of each item, ensuring everything was correct. They couldn't afford to make even the slightest mistake.

Suddenly, a loud commotion erupted from outside the door, shattering the tranquil atmosphere. Gu Qingyu couldn't help but frown and look towards the door. The noise grew louder, as if many people were arguing or discussing something.

The sound became louder and louder. Gu Qingyu and Sister Zhang felt that something was wrong, so they quickly got up and went out to see what was going on.
