Time Travel Article: My parents divorced at the beginning

When Gu Qingyu took the bus into the county town, he wrote down the general layout of the county town on the bus.

The post office is located in the southeast corner of the county town, and it only takes more than half an hour to walk there. He should hurry over before it gets off work. Gu Qingyu also wants to reserve some time to go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some things.

Fortunately, there was no one queuing in front of them when they arrived. Gu Qingyu ignored Chen Mingzhu who was dawdling in the back, pulled her to the front, pointed at the phone and asked her to call her home.

Chen Mingzhu also knew that she could not escape. She thought that since she was already in Ping'an County, her family was too far away to capture her and it would probably be too late.

Hehe, I'm a little secretly happy!

Chen Mingzhu quickly interrupted her thoughts, straightened her attitude, and then hung up the phone home.

After several transfers and a few beeps, the call was finally connected, and a gentle female voice sounded in Chen Mingzhu's ears.

Chen Mingzhu burst into tears when she heard the voice, and she said with a choked voice: "Mom!"

"Mingzhu! You didn't even tell me where you were going! You're driving your family crazy, don't you know?"

"Where the hell are you now?"

Chen Mingzhu hesitated for a long time before saying, "Mom, I've signed up to go to the countryside. I'm in Ping'an County, Xinhu City now, and tomorrow I'm going to Xia'ao Village, Hongqi Commune, to join the team."

Gu Qingyu didn't just sit there and wait, as there wasn't just one phone in the post office. She took a few steps into the room, intending to call Gujia Village first.

She had originally written to her grandparents saying she would be back in October, but now it’s the end of November, and her grandmother must be getting impatient.

Gujia Village Brigade Headquarters, ding-ling-ling, ding-ling-ling!

In the surrounding area, only Gujia Village and Yangjiazhuang Brigade Headquarters had telephones installed. They were usually locked in a wooden box and only opened when needed.

After the old branch secretary retired due to old age, he had nothing to do, so he just watched the telephone at the brigade headquarters.

"Hello! Who?"

As soon as Gu Qingyu heard the voice, he knew it was the old branch secretary, and immediately said loudly, "Grandpa, I am Qingyu!"

"Qingyu girl! Are you looking for your grandparents?"

"Your grandma has been running to the brigade headquarters every day lately, afraid she'd miss your call!"

"Wait a minute, I'll send someone to call your grandma. Call back in ten minutes!"

After saying that, he hung up the phone without even giving Gu Qingyu a response. Ever since the people in Gujia Village learned from Li Dahua that phone calls were charged by the minute, they had almost developed the habit of hanging up the phone without wasting time.

Even after many times, Gu Qingyu still hadn't gotten used to it. Just as there were people like Gu Jiacun who were worried about spending money, there were also people like Chen Mingzhu who were not afraid of spending money even though they were talking on the phone for a long time.

Gu Qingyu stood in front of the phone waiting, and could hear Chen Mingzhu and her family's coquettish and sweet words in her ears.

"Even if you guys are trying to find connections, I won't go back. It's useless for anyone to come!"

"I just like Fu Wenjing, Mom, you guys go look for the Fu family again. Can Fu Wenjing still not listen to his family?"

Gu Qingyu shook his head after hearing this. Whoever has a daughter like this would be unlucky for eight lifetimes.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Gu Qingyu called Gujia Village again, guessing that her grandmother should have already arrived at the brigade headquarters and was waiting there.

Gujia Village, Brigade Headquarters

After the old Party Secretary hung up the phone, he shouted outside, "Sanwazi, come here!"

Sanwazi, who was playing at the entrance of the brigade office, stopped playing immediately when he heard his great-grandfather's call, dropped the stones in his hand and ran towards the brigade office.

"Grandpa, what's the matter?" The little guy was just over five years old and looked chubby.

Because he was not yet of school age, his family usually asked him to stay with the old branch secretary every day and run errands for him when there was something to do.

"Go to your great-grandfather's house and call someone to answer the phone. Your aunt Qingyu is calling!" The old branch secretary told his great-grandson to go out and call someone, while he sat next to the stool, drinking tea and waiting.

Sanwazi was familiar with this matter because his aunt Qingyu often called back, and he was basically the one who went to call people every time.

Sanwazi ran fast and soon arrived at the door of Gu's house. At this time, Li Dahua was sitting in the main room rubbing corn kernels, planning to rub all the corn drying under the eaves and grind it into corn flour at the brigade headquarters.

"Third Grandma, my Aunt Qingyu called and my great-grandfather asked me to come and call for help."

Seeing the little guy sweating profusely from running, Li Dahua quickly stood up and poured him a glass of water, "Third kid, go inside and have a drink of water first."

After the old man's leg healed, he started wandering around again. No one knew where he went now, and Li Dahua didn't plan to call anyone to go.

After the little guy finished drinking the water, Li Dahua took Sanwazi's hand and slowly walked towards the brigade headquarters.

Along the way, Li Dahua was thinking about why her granddaughter did not come back at the agreed time, and she didn't know what happened.

As soon as Li Dahua arrived at the brigade headquarters, she heard the phone ringing. She quickly let go of the little guy's hand, rushed in in two or three steps, grabbed the phone and answered it.

You really don't look old at all.

Sure enough, when Li Dahua picked up the phone, Gu Qingyu's voice came from the other end.

"Qingyu, you haven't come back yet since the end of November. Is anything wrong?"

"Something delayed me, grandma! I'm in the county town now. I'll go back to Gujia Village tomorrow. Don't worry."

When Li Dahua heard that her good granddaughter would be home tomorrow, she smiled so hard that she couldn't stop and said several good words in a row.

After making sure that Gu Qingyu had no other instructions, Li Dahua immediately hung up the phone and ran home. She had to go back and tidy up Qingyu's room.

In the post office, Gu Qingyu was in a good mood after hanging up the phone. She could imagine how the old lady Li Dahua looked after hanging up the phone.

Thinking of Chen Mingzhu who was still talking on the phone outside the door, Gu Qingyu had to pick up the phone and call a military hospital.

"Doctor Chen, there's a call for you, come and answer it!"

Chen Yuanchao had just come down from the operating table and returned to the office when he heard a phone call before he had time to drink a sip of water.

There was nothing I could do but walk towards the phone while drinking water, thinking helplessly that it was probably another call from home.

In the past two days, he has received countless calls from home because his cousin Chen Mingzhu disappeared without saying goodbye.

This girl has been getting more and more outrageous since she came back from Haicheng. This time she even ran away from home without telling anyone. She is getting bolder and bolder.

Once he finds her, he'll see how he handles her! If he doesn't subdue her, who knows what kind of trouble she'll cause.

"Hey!"

"I'm Gu Qingyu!"

Chen Yuanchao was surprised to hear the person on the other end introduce themselves. Ever since he graduated from university and started working, they hadn't been in touch much, usually only getting together occasionally during holidays.

Chen Yuanchao didn't expect Gu Qingyu to call him suddenly. Something happened!
