1970s: A hot-tempered wife who accompanied a soldier to the military compound and made a fortune.

Chapter 316 Noble Man
In Gu Lingzhi's heart, Chu Xue was the benefactor of his grandson Gu Qianshan.

Last time at the hospital, if it weren't for this girl, my grandson would have been injured, if not killed. But she just smashed a bowl over his head, and apart from being a little frightened, he wasn't hurt at all.

To be honest, I felt ashamed. I had originally planned to repay the girl after I finished dealing with the matter last time, but the girl refused repeatedly. I also had to go to Haishi on a business trip, so I put the matter aside.

Unexpectedly, when they met again, the grandson was saved by the same person once more: "Comrade Liu, thank you so much. If it weren't for you, I don't know what to say about Qianshan this time. I was thinking of visiting your house when I had some free time, but I didn't expect that this would happen as soon as I got back from Haishi."

Gu Lingzhi wasn't lying; he had risen through the ranks from a technical position, and the plan to lead a team to Shanghai for training had been arranged beforehand.

It can be said that every family has its own troubles. He also has an old revolutionary father who is not in good health and spends half of the year in the hospital. Although there are people taking care of him, his family cannot simply let go of him.

However, his wife died early, and his only son injured his leg while on a mission. Given his rank, he could have hired a caregiver, but his daughter-in-law's family background was problematic, and he was afraid of being caught red-handed, so he had to give up the idea.

The daughter-in-law has to take care of her husband and son, and when she has free time, she has to go to the retirement home to take care of the old man.

So after he went on a business trip to Haishi, his daughter-in-law was unable to find time to visit the Liu family.

Chu Xue had no intention of expecting anything in return for saving the child, as it was truly a simple act of kindness: "Comrade Gu, it's good that the child is alright. Anyone would do the same in this situation. It's just that I seem to have a special connection with your grandson, as we've run into each other twice in such a short time."

Looking at the sky, she said, "Alright, now that you're here, I should go back, or my family will worry." Just then, Li Xiaoya, who had just calmed her son down, came out and heard this. Without saying a word, she knelt down in front of Chuxue and said, "I really don't know what to say. From now on, you're my sister, and Qianshan is your nephew. I'm so grateful to you. If anything had happened to Qianshan, I wouldn't have been able to live. You've saved both my son's and my life."

Chu Xue was startled: "Oh dear, sister, what are you doing? Get up quickly."

Li Xiaoya insisted on kowtowing, her voice trembling with tears, "Sister, if it weren't for you, my son would probably have died in the mountains and no one would have known."

Hearing her words, Chu Xue's eyes welled up with tears. What she said was true; the two men had originally intended to leave the sack in the cave and wait for news from here before going to retrieve the people.

If she hadn't encountered this, even if she hadn't been attacked by wild animals, she would probably have lived in constant fear, and it's hard to say what would have happened to the child then.

Chu Xue was strong. After Li Xiaoya kowtowed, she forcefully pulled her up: "Okay, then, it's as you said. From now on, you're my older sister, and the little guy is my nephew. Please don't kneel down to me again, it's too scary."

But as soon as she said that, Li Xiaoya, who was still crying, suddenly burst out laughing: "I've decided you're my sister. I really like your personality."

After exchanging a few more pleasantries, the Gu family finally let Chuxue leave after confirming her address.
