A 1970s mom raises a cute baby, and a crazy boss spoils her

Chapter 167: Letter from Zhong Zijun, Preparations before Returning Home

Zhong Luo Ning and her three children fed the rabbit some radish leaves, then washed up and ate.

Ming Ruxue also appeared at the dinner table on time at mealtime.

"Sister Huanhuan, what do you want to eat this morning?"

"Big meat buns from the state-owned restaurant, plus soybean juice and porridge."

Ming Ruxue picked up a large meat bun and took a bite: "If you ask me, the buns made by this state-owned restaurant are still not as delicious as those made by my sister Huanhuan."

"Just blow it, and see if you can blow my sister up to the sky?" The pair of bickering enemies started arguing again.

Gu Qinghuan shook his head helplessly.

"bang bang"

Dabao quickly put down his chopsticks and ran out.

"I'll open the door."

Gu Qinghuan quickly followed behind him.

"Mom, it's the postman uncle."

"There is a letter from Gu Qinghuan. Are you Gu Qinghuan?" The postman handed over a letter.

"Yes." Gu Qinghuan nodded and signed quickly.

"Mom, whose letter is this?" Dabao stretched his neck to read.

Gu Qinghuan patted his head in amusement.

"Study hard. When you learn more words, you can help mom read letters."

This letter came from Xu Jiatun.

Gu Qinghuan opened the letter and started reading it seriously.

After reading the letter quickly, she paced back and forth in annoyance.

Seeing this, Zhong Luo Ning walked over and asked softly, "Huanhuan, is there something wrong?" She rarely saw Gu Qinghuan like this.

The letter was sent by Zhong Zijun. Due to transportation problems in winter and it was sent by surface mail, it was delayed on the way, so it took almost a month for the letter to reach Gu Qinghuan.

Zhong Zijun briefly mentioned to Gu Qinghuan that she was in danger and was rescued by Ji Linhai. She also asked her when she would return to Xujiatun and about the situation of Lanting and Zhong Luoning.

Although Zhong Zijun did not elaborate on describing the scene at that time, Gu Qinghuan could feel the thrill at that time and felt a little worried.

After Gu Yunchuan was executed, she wrote a letter and sent it back. At that time, she thought that she would return to Xujiatun soon, so she didn't say much.

"It's okay!" Gu Qinghuan shook his head at Zhong Luoning, then handed the letter to Lan Ting. He was Zhong Zijun's biological son, and he should be informed of the situation.

Lan Ting took the letter with some confusion, and after reading it, she immediately exploded with anger: "Sister, who are these people! Will mom be wronged in the village?"

This fool, a tiger in dire straits being bullied by a dog, how could he not feel wronged? Zhong Zijun has already suffered all the sufferings in the world.

"No, sister, let's go and take a look! Otherwise I will feel uneasy." Gu Lanting said in a loud voice.

Gu Qinghuan pondered and said nothing.

She has too many concerns.

On the one hand, Xu Huaian had not returned for more than half a month, and she was worried that something might have happened to him.

On the other hand, she now has a heavy responsibility. Lanting, Ming Ruxue, the two children, and Zhong Luoning and her son are all her responsibilities. It doesn't seem good to leave anyone here, and the New Year is coming soon.

She would definitely not feel at ease if she took Lanting and the two children back to Xujiatun and left Ming Ruxue and Zhong Luoning behind.

I just promised Nan Sheng and his wife to take care of Ming Ruxue, and I also received three thousand yuan from them.

Not to mention Zhong Luoning and her son, who are both patients who need care. If the Xu family takes the opportunity to seek revenge, they will be at the mercy of others.

But she was also very worried about the situation in Xujiatun. Anything could happen during the winter.

Ji Linhai is a good person, but he also has to make a living and it is impossible for him to stay with Zhong Zijun all day long. Zhong Weiqian and his wife cannot be relied upon either. They are old, weak and sick and still need Zhong Zijun's protection and care.

Thinking of this, Gu Qinghuan directly laid out his concerns.

"This is the situation now, and I am in a difficult situation."

After hearing this, Dabao and Beibei raised their hands first: "Mom, we will go wherever you go!" As for Dad, he can take care of himself, so it is more important for him to follow Mom.

Ming Ruxue swallowed the last bite of bun in her mouth: "Sister, me too, me too. I'll be wherever you are! Don't leave me." She didn't want to spend the New Year alone.

Lan Ting certainly felt the same way. Knowing what had happened to his mother, he wanted to pack up and leave immediately.

Now only Zhong Luoning and her son are left.

Several people looked at them.

Zhong Luo Ning also expressed his opinion: "You Ran and I have no problem, but I may have to trouble you along the way..."

"It's not a problem, it's not a problem. What are you talking about? I'm here for you."

Lan Ting patted his chest quickly. He had been eating well recently, and he seemed to have grown taller and stronger, looking more manly.

Since everyone was willing to go with her, Gu Qinghuan stopped hesitating and decided to bring everyone back to Xujiatun to celebrate the New Year.

The big kang in my hometown doesn’t have to worry about not having enough room to sleep.

The only thing is that I couldn't wait for Xu Huaian. I thought he would be back in a week, but he hasn't come back for half a month. I don't know what the mission was or whether he was in danger.

Never mind, she couldn't help now anyway.

The family quickly became busy.

It is not a simple matter for so many people to take the train to the Northeast. A lot of preparations need to be made.

The first thing is the train tickets. Four adults with three children and luggage definitely cannot squeeze into the hard seats, so we have to find a way to buy sleeper tickets.

As the year draws to a close, it’s hard to buy a sleeper berth.

If Ming Ruxue hadn't volunteered that she could find someone to book the tickets, Gu Qinghuan would have almost forgotten about her as the mascot.

She is a little princess who is cared for by a special department. Wouldn't it be a matter of minutes for her to buy a few sleeper tickets?

Leave this matter to her.

By the way, Gu Qinghuan also reminded her to inform her parents so that they would not worry.

Then there are the personal connections here.

The Chinese New Year is coming soon, and you should give some New Year gifts to the elders and familiar families. You must visit them before you leave, as relationships will only get better if you maintain them.

First, it was Xu Lei and Xia Lian's house. Gu Qinghuan came by bike, bringing 30 kilograms of flour, 30 kilograms of rice, a 3-kilogram piece of pork fat, and a 5-kilogram piece of pork fat.

She originally wanted to get two pheasants or rabbits from the space for them, but she really didn't have the time, so she could only make do with meat instead. This amount of animal oil was enough for them to have a good New Year.

In addition to being New Year gifts, these things are actually expressions of gratitude to Xu Lei for his help to them over the past few days.

Gu Qinghuan has always been a person who repays kindness with kindness and seeks revenge with revenge.

She remembers Xu Lei's kindness.

As soon as she arrived, she told Xia Lian that she was going back to Northeast China soon and their business might have to stop.

However, the finished products on hand can now be sold, and the remaining raw materials can be given to them for disposal.

Although Xia Lian felt a little disappointed, she immediately expressed her understanding and asked her if she needed any help.

Gu Qinghuan gave them the gifts she brought.

Xia Lian was frightened when she saw so many things. The gift was too heavy.

"Huanhuan, I can't accept these gifts. Old Xu will scold me when he comes back."

"Aunt, Lanting and I are struggling on our own, and we rely on Uncle Xu for help. Our two families will have to visit each other more often in the future. I sincerely thank Uncle Xu for his help. Please accept it." Gu Qinghuan said so sincerely that Xia Lian had no choice but to accept it.

Gu Qinghuan's gift was too expensive, and she really had nothing else to give in return. After thinking about it, she took out a bracelet from the cabinet and gave it to Gu Qinghuan as a token of her appreciation.

"Huanhuan, we are poor and have nothing. I am sorry to have made a fool of myself. This is a string of beads left by my mother. It is made of small-leaf red sandalwood and is worth some money. I am just offering it to you as a token of my gratitude. You must accept it." Xia Lian stuffed the bracelet into Gu Qinghuan's hand.

This thing is really not worth much nowadays, and you can't even exchange it for a few kilograms of food.

The main reason is that people nowadays are not getting enough to eat, so these dead things are even less important.

However, if placed in the future, it still has some value. This is the truth that gold is valuable in troubled times and antiques are valuable in prosperous times.

"No, this won't do. This is your mother's wish. How can you give it to me?"

"If you don't accept it, take your New Year gift as well." Xia Lian said helplessly.

Seeing that he couldn't refuse, Gu Qinghuan accepted it.

Xia Lian packed all the snacks she had made over the past two days and tied them to the back seat of her bicycle, and also gave her some pickles she had made herself.

Gu Qinghuan paid Xia Lian the money for the goods and wished their family a happy new year in advance.

On the way back, I put the snacks into the space and kept a dozen boxes of Beijing Eight Pieces to be used as gifts.

All other dim sum were put up for sale, and the dim sum business came to an end.

In the afternoon, she went to see Zhang Zheng, Qu Hanwen, Xiao Fengying, and the Fang family one after another with gifts.

Although she knew about the relationship between Qu Hanwen and Xiao Fengying, she still gave gifts to each of them separately. After all, they haven't reconciled yet.

She specially tidied up the warehouse in the space villa, found a lot of things, and put together several sets of gifts.
