Chapter 139 Selfishness
When both of them calmed down from their excitement, He Yuzhu looked at the gauze on Guo Lei's left hand and asked, "Where did you come from?"

Guo Lei definitely did not come from home. He Yuzhu even doubted whether he had ever been home. Otherwise, given the temperament of Guo's father and mother, they would definitely not let their son out if he was injured like this.

Sure enough, when it comes to this, Guo Lei's face looks a little unnatural.

He said to He Yuzhu: "I came to the hospital with the medical team. I haven't notified my family yet!
I asked for leave to come here just to ask how my family is doing now?

Zhuzi, you all, please keep this a secret for me for now.

Alas, I don’t know how to face my parents.”

Everyone fell silent after hearing this.

They are proud of Guo Lei, but when it comes to reality, if they put themselves in his shoes, they don’t know how to face it.

"Confused." The one who cursed was He Yuzhu.

He Yuzhu got angry and asked, "Can this be kept secret?

Uncle and Auntie have been worried about you for more than a year, and you want them to be sad for you anymore?
How long can you hide?
You are a hero and you should go home and tell them that you have completed the mission assigned to you by the motherland.

You have not brought shame to your parents, nor have you brought shame to our street.

As for your future work and life, the street will arrange it, and you still have us as your friends."

He Yuzhu was so emotional that he didn't know what to say.

He knew that Guo Lei was worried about becoming a burden to the family in the future and might be thinking a lot.

He wanted to comfort her, but found that words were so powerless at this moment.

It's easy to say it with your mouth!
But this result will accompany Guo Lei for decades.

His future work, he hasn't gotten married yet, these are things he will have to face in his life.

Guo Lei lowered his head but said to He Yuzhu, "Thank you."

He Yuzhu understood Guo Lei's thank you. It was not because of what He Yuzhu had just said, but because He Yuzhu kept his promise and really took care of his parents for more than a year.

He Yuzhu wanted to hold Guo Lei's left hand, but saw blood oozing out of the gauze.

He Yuzhu simply held his hands in both of his, and shook them gently up and down.

This thing really made He Yuzhu feel at a loss for words.

In the end, Guo Lei decided to go home, but he had to ask for leave from the leader who came with him from the army.

He also took a leave of absence today. His idea was very simple, which was to come and ask how his parents were doing.

He didn't think that these little friends passed the message to one another and brought everyone together.

He also knew that there were many people talking and that it would be good if he could keep the secret for a day or two.

There will always be a time for his parents to know.

But how can I explain this kind of thing? I feel timid when it comes to my family.

If He Yuzhu hadn't pushed him, he might have figured it out on his own, or he might have waited for Guo's father and mother to find out and come directly to his house.

He Yuzhu calmed down, thought for a moment and said: "It's best to discuss it with Director Wang first, and let Director Wang go over to communicate first, so that your parents can have a general idea."

Guo Lei hesitated and asked, "Is this appropriate?"

He Yuzhu waved his hand and said, "It's okay, Director Wang will take care of it."

What He Yuzhu was talking about was nothing else but Guo Lei's situation. After he recovered from his injuries, the next step would be to retire and be arranged for a job.

Since it will be arranged sooner or later, why not find some connections now so that Guo Lei's parents can have a peace of mind. In addition to serving the country and the people, life also includes food, clothing, housing and transportation. Guo Lei has already served the country and the people, so it is not shameful for him to worry about food, clothing, housing and transportation.

He Yuzhu was not talking nonsense when he brought this up.

He would rather be called selfish.

In this matter, there is still a gap between waiting for arrangements from above and looking for it on your own.

Even if there is no gap now, there will be a gap between units in a few decades.

He Yuzhu led Guo Lei to Director Wang's office. On the way, He Yuzhu whispered: "Try to go to those workplace units, such as our street office, institute, and those units in the district.

Don’t go to the factory. Remember, don’t go there, no matter how good the factory is.”

Guo Lei looked at He Yuzhu and saw that He Yuzhu had a serious face, but he said suspiciously: "I just lost my arm, but my brain is not damaged.

Can't I still do something at the factory?"

He Yuzhu was a little annoyed. This was what he was worried about.

I was afraid that Guo Lei would not admit defeat and was still thinking about proving himself in other positions.

But this is what He Yuzhu is afraid of. If he goes to work in a small factory run by a street office, he may not be able to continue working there after thirty or forty years, which would be another big hurdle for Guo Lei.

He Yuzhu thought for a moment and said: "Think about your parents. You can stay in the street or go to the newly established supply and marketing cooperatives.

At least we can take care of their lives.

If you really want to work in a factory, you don’t know whether it is good or not. If the factory moves, wouldn’t that make the two elders worry?”

He Yuzhu had no choice but to use Guo Lei's parents to pressure him.

When Guo Lei heard He Yuzhu talking about his parents, he shut up.

Director Wang probably knew that Guo Lei was coming a long time ago, and the reason why he didn't go over was simply to try to cover up his mistake.

If she knew, she would definitely tell the Guo family.

But now Guo Lei was in such a state and nothing was certain, so she didn't know how to start.

She could arrange this kind of thing for Guo Lei, but what if he had a better arrangement?
So I can only pretend I don’t know.

Now is definitely the best time to make arrangements. There are various construction projects everywhere. We can assign a hero to any unit. Although Director Wang cannot make the decision, he can make recommendations.

The army has not yet transferred Guo Lei's information to the local area. Director Wang is not clear about what kind of merits he has made and what level of treatment he should be given.

I want to help, but I don't know where to start.

This is how things work. He Yuzhu brought Guo Lei here, which felt like a backdoor approach.

After Guo Lei told Director Wang everything he could, He Yuzhu whispered to Director Wang with a sly look in his eyes: "It would be best if it was a newly built grain station or supply and marketing cooperative. If that doesn't work, our street office is also fine."

Director Wang looked at He Yuzhu in surprise, but comforted Guo Lei with some official words, but did not promise any specific location.

Even if Director Wang didn't know, her husband knew about the future city planning. Now that he heard that He Yuzhu was eyeing the two most popular units in the future, he was naturally a little surprised.

This was not surprising. She knew the families He Yuzhu visited and some of them were introduced by her.

It’s really not too complicated for He Yuzhu to know some development plans.

What surprised her even more was that, although He Yuzhu knew that those two units would be good for the future, he never thought of asking for anything on his own behalf.

Instead, he asked her for help on behalf of Guo Lei, who was just a neighbor. This made Director Wang think more.
