Chapter 421 You've got some skills, managing to get so much diesel fuel.
Hearing her grandfather say that, Su Niannian stopped refusing.
These two old buddies have a good relationship, and it's a good thing that they often meet up to chat and joke around.
Su Niannian also hopes that her maternal grandfather and Chief Lu can be happy every day.
Chief Lu has been quite busy lately, with so many things happening, so I imagine he's not in a good mood.
When Grandpa passed away, Chief Lu must have been happy.
However, Su Niannian had something to do before going back.
"Grandpa, I want to go to that plantation before I go back," Su Niannian said with a smile.
She also needs to go and fetch two buckets of diesel fuel into the space.
After all, tomorrow is the day to make the deal with Gao Yunshan.
“Okay, it’s just a matter of taking a detour.” Old Master Bai readily agreed.
In fact, Su Niannian has many secrets, but Old Master Bai's thoughts were similar to Gu Nan's at the time.
I don't plan to ask any more questions unless my precious granddaughter tells me.
Anyway, this is my precious granddaughter, and I will protect her no matter what.
Whether he knew or not was not that important to Old Master Bai.
When Su Niannian decides to tell him, he will naturally find out.
Old Master Bai instructed Guo Futian to drive the car.
These days, Guo Futian has become somewhat like a driver.
However, Guo Futian didn't care.
In Guo Futian's heart, Old Master Bai was like his own father, and the things Old Master Bai entrusted to him were the most important things.
Grandpa Bai and Su Niannian got into the car, and Guo Futian stepped on the gas and drove off.
They headed straight for Old Master Bai's abandoned plantation.
When they arrived at the destination, Su Niannian said she would go in and take a look and then come out right away, and that she could go by herself.
Grandpa Bai didn't know what Su Niannian was going to do inside, but he didn't ask any questions and just nodded.
After getting out of the car, Su Niannian went straight to the warehouse at the back.
When Su Niannian saw the diesel fuel that Guo Futian had prepared for her, she exclaimed in amazement.
There were five large buckets and ten small buckets.
This must have been brought over by truck.
The large barrel is about one meter tall and about sixty centimeters in diameter, with two hundred liters marked on the top.
The small bucket is labeled 30 liters and has a handle for easy carrying.
Su Niannian couldn't help but smile when she saw these.
This Brother Guo is quite honest; he doesn't even know what he needs diesel for, yet he's made so much.
However, Guo Futian's actions made Su Niannian think that he was a very nice person.
Let alone in later generations, even now, it would cost a lot of money to get this much diesel.
There's 1,300 liters here, which would cost quite a bit even with a diesel fuel ticket.
Moreover, this was a period when diesel fuel was scarce and was a restricted product. Su Niannian had not expected that Guo Futian could obtain so much diesel fuel during this era.
Guo Futian was devoted to his maternal grandfather, so the problem with the decline in his grandfather's assets shouldn't lie with Guo Futian.
"Then who else could it be?" His maternal grandfather seemed to be a rather shrewd man.
For someone to cause such a significant reduction in his assets, and for whom Grandpa doesn't harbor deep resentment, this person must have a very close relationship with Grandpa.
Su Niannian couldn't understand it.
Then don’t think about it.
Su Niannian casually grabbed four small buckets of diesel fuel and placed them in a corner of the space before quickly leaving the warehouse.
"Grandpa! I'm back." Su Niannian opened the car door and sat back down.
Grandpa Bai smiled at Su Niannian but didn't ask anything.
Guo Futian drove directly to the military family compound.
After a drive of more than an hour, the group returned to their residential compound.
"Grandpa, let's have dinner at home tonight," Su Niannian said with a smile, linking arms with Grandpa Bai.
"No, when you go back, I'll go straight to find old man Lu." It wasn't that Grandpa Bai didn't want to have dinner at Su Niannian's house.
But that is Su Niannian's in-laws' home after all, and it's not appropriate for me to keep going there and bothering them.
Anyway, Su Niannian is already in Beijing, so she'll always have opportunities.
It would be better for Old Master Bai to go and find Old Man Lu now.
Therefore, he refused Su Niannian's request.
"Okay, I'll be going now. Feel free to contact me anytime if you need anything," Su Niannian said with a smile.
Grandpa Bai nodded and told Su Niannian to take good care of herself.
After Su Niannian got out of the car, she watched it drive away.
When Su Niannian got home, it was already past five o'clock. The aroma of food was already wafting from the Gu family's kitchen.
"Niannian is back." Gu's mother came out of the kitchen when she heard the voice.
"Mother!" Su Niannian called out with a smile.
"Is everything alright with Grandpa Bai?" Gu's mother asked Su Niannian, drying her hands with her apron.
"It's nothing, Grandpa asked me to help treat someone's illness," Su Niannian said.
Over there, Gu's mother handed Su Niannian a glass of water.
It was warm. Although it was getting hot, Gu's mother felt that Su Niannian was pregnant, so it was better for her to drink warm water.
Su Niannian took it and drank a few sips.
"What is Mother making? It smells delicious." Su Niannian said, putting her water glass on the table in the yard after finishing her water.
"The tofu stew with bok choy also has pork belly."
"I made braised pork with the remaining pork belly."
"Your sister-in-law made steamed buns, they're almost ready," Gu's mother said with a smile.
This pork belly was brought by Grandpa Bai. With the recent hot weather, some of it was made into cured pork, but the rest couldn't be stored for long.
We need to eat it quickly.
Su Niannian smiled and nodded, "Eat up, I'll buy more after you're done."
"You silly girl, it's better to save your money, after all, you'll need money when the baby is born."
"When it comes to food, we should save as much as possible." It wasn't that Gu's mother was controlling Su Niannian and not letting her spend money, but she felt that Su Niannian kept buying things for the family and was afraid of wasting Su Niannian's money.
"I also want to eat some meat to nourish my body," Su Niannian said, knowing what Gu's mother meant, and affectionately took Gu's mother's arm.
Gu's mother told Su Niannian to rest, and then went back to the kitchen to help Zhao Tian prepare dinner.
A while later, Gu Ningning arrived home.
As soon as Gu Ningning got back, she started chattering about what was happening at school.
I told them I brought candy to share with my classmates, and they liked me even more.
She also said that she knew a lot about her studies, and the teacher praised her.
As Gu Ningning continued recounting the interesting things that happened at school, Gu Nan returned.
Su Niannian hurriedly went to the door to greet him, the moment Gu Nan saw his little girl.
I felt extremely happy.
The two embraced again, oblivious to everyone else around them.
Although Su Niannian was a little shy, she hugged Gu Nan in front of so many people.
But how could she refuse Gu Nan's outstretched arms?
"You just got back, aren't you dirty? Go wash up quickly," Gu's mother said to Gu Nan.
Su Niannian is now a pregnant woman, and Gu Nan has been busy outside all day. I don't know if he has any bacteria on him.
