Reborn into the 70: Turning Adversity into Her Dazzling Path Chapter 234: Petty

The original plan was to visit grandmother’s house the next day, but after agreeing with Liu Yating and Yang Yunhai, Gu Lingling discussed with Gu Chunhai to postpone the visit by a day.

Early the next morning, Gu Chunhai was supposed to accompany Gu Lingling to the military base, but just as they stepped out, they saw a military vehicle approaching. "Are you Comrade Gu Lingling? Our captain asked to pick you up."

Li Hongjun, with his dark face, smiled at Gu Lingling, revealing a small dimple when he did.

"Thank you so much." Gu Lingling hadn’t expected Yang Yunhai to be so considerate. In fact, she wanted to say she could easily walk there herself, walking is exercise and she’s not worried about the cold at all.

But since there was a car, and it saved ti, why not?

Seeing that there was soone to pick her up, Gu Chunhai felt relieved and went back ho to tidy up the house. With the New Year approaching, there is a tradition of cleaning in rural areas. With his daughter not at ho today, he could clean the house inside and out by himself.

Gu Lingling was directly taken to the Special Team’s eting room.

There was a large table inside, with writing materials already prepared. Gu Lingling glanced at it and noticed the brush and ink were much better than what they had at ho.

The paper hadn’t been cut yet, as they weren’t sure what style Gu Lingling wanted.

Gu Lingling felt very satisfied with this arrangent. Although Yang Yunhai hadn’t co, he had assigned her two soldiers to assist her — anything she needed, she just had to say the word.

The eting room had heating, which was much more comfortable than ho. No matter how many couplets she wrote, her hands wouldn’t get cold.

Yang Yunhai planned for Gu Lingling to write couplets for the entire Special Team.

He had great confidence in Gu Lingling’s calligraphy and had the couplets posted on his own house’s door first thing in the morning.

When Liu Xiaoqin ca out, she specifically asked the young soldier, "Who wrote the spring couplets for our captain’s house? The handwriting is really good."

The young soldier didn’t know who it was, but had heard that the person who wrote the couplets would be invited to the base to write today.

And so, the news quickly spread throughout the community residences.

The families of the Special Team loved the couplets as soon as they saw them, and a few of them discussed, "Why don’t we quietly go to the base too? See if we can get so couplets written for our hos?"

Most of these military wives were not very literate, so they especially admired soone who could write such beautiful characters.

Besides, with the couplets posted at the captain’s house, if their own couplets were still written haphazardly by kids like in previous years, wouldn’t that be a disgrace to the Special Team?

Indeed, finding excellent calligraphy skills in the military wasn’t easy, so every year the couplets at ho were written by kids who had learned brush writing for a few days.

But now it was different — they heard that the Special Team invited soone to write couplets, and they were also part of the Special Team. Just four or five families’ couplets to write, shouldn’t be too difficult, right?

After their discussion, they happily decided on the plan.

"Should we go and buy so red paper?" soone asked weakly.

"Why buy it? Does the base need our few sheets of red paper?" Liu Xiaoqin said scornfully.

"I’ve already bought red paper at ho, I’ll go get it," Mo Hongying said with a smile.

What she couldn’t stand the most was Liu Xiaoqin’s petty attitude — a few sheets of red paper wouldn’t cost much, is it right to take advantage of the base like this?

"I also have red paper at ho," said Zhang Lanfang, who got along well with Mo Hongying.

Their husbands had just been transferred to the company as commanders this year, and the two n had joined the army in the sa year, so their families were closer.
