20demayo Chapter 292
Chapter 292
Gu Dongfang's body does indeed need conditioning, after all, he suffered many injuries in his early years, including knife wounds and gunshot wounds, leaving him with quite a few scars.
However, given Gu Dongfang's status, he has been well taken care of over the years.
Ye Nuan thought that this was Gu Hanchuan's biological grandfather, so she had to treat him with utmost care.
Moreover, Ye Nuan thought about the Gu family now. It seemed very powerful, but in reality, it was a disorganized mess. Gu Hanchuan's uncles and aunts were not all together, and the younger generation had their own agendas. If they wanted the Gu family to have a better life after 1980 and for their children to have a better future, then the old man's existence would be a pillar of stability.
Therefore, Ye Nuan prepared medicinal meals for Gu Dongfang for several days in a row, and each time she would add some spiritual fruit juice to them.
The effects of the spiritual juice were remarkable. Gu Dongfang clearly felt that his body was different from before, and he was even more satisfied with his granddaughter-in-law.
Gu Dongfang was actually here to check out Gu Hanchuan's grandson.
Among the next generation of the Gu family, his second son was actually more suitable to be the head of the family, but this son had always been in the Northwest, and it is estimated that by the time he returned, he would have already passed away.
Moreover, the second son's position is not something that can be easily changed.
So Gu Dongfang thought he should take good care of his health and try to live a few more years, so that he could skip his son's generation and directly raise his grandson.
Of Gu Dongfang's dozen or so grandsons, the only ones who caught his eye, besides the eldest son who became a pilot, were Gu Hanchuan.
As for the eldest and third sons, they were not within Gu Dongfang's consideration.
The eldest son is going into politics, but he lacks the necessary qualifications and his future position is unlikely to be very high.
Needless to say, the third brother is someone you only see once every three to five years. How can he manage the entire Gu family?
As for the fourth brother who stayed by his side, Gu Dongfang looked down on him even more.
Aside from his silver tongue, he can only get money and things from his mother; he's good for nothing.
Therefore, Gu Dongfang had no choice but to start raising his grandson as soon as possible.
Gu Hanchuan is not old, but he has made many contributions and has long been firmly established as the regimental commander. It would not be difficult for him to be promoted to the next level.
Gu Hanchuan's current deputy is Cai Ying. Gu Dongfang also knows this young man. If it weren't for his injury, he would probably be a full regimental commander by now.
Gu Dongfang's biggest concern during this trip was actually Wang Qinya at home.
She was afraid that if the old man continued to support Gu Hanchuan, there would be less resources available for his own grandson.
Given Gu Dongfang's position, he would have connections in any department, and he retired early to make room for the younger generation in his family. This shows that the old man is not power-hungry.
No matter how anxious Wang Qinya was, there was nothing she could do.
The old man didn't say goodbye before he left, and only sent a letter to Wang Qinya after he was gone.
Because of this, Wang Qinya knew that the old man was dissatisfied with her, so she dared not chase after him.
After arriving here, Gu Dongfang felt more and more comfortable and didn't want to leave.
Besides, he was just trying to get better. Even if he's almost fully recovered from all his injuries, so what?
As long as he says he's in pain or has no strength, who would dare to kick him out?
Later, Zhai Hua and Tian Guihua found out that Gu Hanchuan's grandfather lived there, and they even thought about going to the leaders to report it, but they were scolded by their own husbands instead.
Only then did they realize that he was a former leader, a true hero and veteran revolutionary.
Now, the two of them dared not cause any more trouble and stayed put obediently.
The old man had no intention of going back home until the Chinese New Year.
Xiao Liu can walk steadily now and can call out to people, but he can only say three words at most, and sometimes he uses reduplicated words.
"Oh, our little Liu looks so smart today! Come here to your great-grandfather."
Xiao Liu stumbled over, his short legs moving quite energetically. Just as he was about to fall, Gu Dongfang caught him.
"Wow, our little Liu is amazing! He can still run around dressed like that. Not bad, better than your dad."
I don't know if Xiao Liu understood or not, but he grinned and repeated, "Strong!"
Gu Dongfang is now extremely fond of this great-grandson.
Of course, the main reason I like him is because I like my granddaughter-in-law.
As for his grandson Gu Hanchuan, he would come over every now and then to annoy him, and Gu Dongfang wished he could give the kid a good beating!
Gu Dongfang originally intended to find an opportunity to transfer Gu Hanchuan to Beijing, but Ye Nuan disagreed.
Ye Nuan was reborn, so she naturally knew that Beijing would be in turmoil for the next few years. Going back at this time would only make things worse.
She knew why the old man wanted Gu Hanchuan to go back, so she simply had a frank and in-depth talk with him. She then mentioned that Gu Hanchuan would definitely go back, but not now, so they couldn't rush it.
Gu Dongfang wasn't the kind of stubborn old man. If you figured out his personality and were willing to talk to him properly, many things could actually be easily resolved.
The old man took Ye Nuan's words to heart.
However, not returning to Beijing does not mean he cannot help Gu Hanchuan improve his skills as quickly as possible.
Moreover, Gu Dongfang's intention to stay here for a longer period of time is actually a signal to the outside world.
It goes without saying that those old friends or subordinates of the old man would understand who the young man favored.
As a result, Gu Hanchuan's name began to appear frequently in some leadership positions.
In 1976, Gu Hanchuan was transferred back to the Beijing Military Region, and Ye Nuan was transferred back with him.
At this time, Gu Hanchuan was promoted again and became a deputy division chief, while Ye Nuan was already a deputy chief physician.
The salary of an associate chief physician is already very high. This is only because Ye Nuan is too young. Otherwise, with her medical skills and those successful treatment cases, she could have been promoted much faster.
Jiang Yuanshan and the forces behind him had long been eliminated, so this time Xiao Gangpao also used his real name Zheng Gang to go to Beijing.
Zheng Gang was assigned to the traditional Chinese medicine pharmacy at the city hospital, and he was no longer in the same unit as Ye Nuan.
Ye Nuan still urged her to read more books so that she could take the college entrance examination later.
The following winter, Zheng Gang took the college entrance examination and was successfully admitted to a key university, but he chose pharmacy as his major.
Ye Nuan had long seen through Zheng Gang's ambition not to become a doctor.
That's good too, so his work can also have the effect of treating and saving lives in the future.
Gu Hanchuan took over most of the Gu family's resources last year, and Gu Dongfang is now in good health. With him protecting them, Wang Qinya and Gu Guoliang won't be able to cause any trouble.
However, Ye Nuan gave birth to another son in 2007 or 2008. Now, Li Qiang, who had just had two years of peace and quiet, was back to taking care of the child.
