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

Ji Linhai's eyes were unclear.

We had a very enjoyable meal and the table was completely cleared.

Ji Linhai volunteered to send the three members of the Zhong family back to the cowshed, and Gu Qinghuan saw them out.

Xu Huaian sent Mr. Ji back to the cowshed.

Zhong Luoning and Gu Lanting took the initiative to take on the task of cleaning up and washing the dishes.

Ming Ruxue takes care of the child.

Only then did Xu Huaian have time to have a good chat with Gu Qinghuan.

The two of them slipped into the space quietly.

"Why have you lost weight?" His face became the size of a palm again.

Gu Qinghuan avoided his burning gaze, fearing that she would fall into it.

"No, you're seeing things wrong."

Being tired is one thing, but she has indeed been eating less recently, so she has lost some weight.

"Thank you for taking care of the family." Xu Huaian said seriously.

"Nothing, the kids are all very well behaved. By the way, did you complete your mission this time?"

"It's done." Xu Huaian paused and said, "Huanhuan, there's one thing I can't make up my mind about!"

"what's up?"

"After this mission is completed, the Ministry of Defense said they can offer me a position."

"This is a good thing! The Ministry of National Defense is a good organization, but your illness..." Gu Qinghuan did not ask about the specific situation, but was worried that there were still hidden dangers in his illness.

"I have recovered my lost memories, Huanhuan. I will most likely not have an attack again in the future."

"That's good!" Gu Qinghuan didn't ask what part of his memory he had lost. As long as he was fine, it was fine.

"Now that you are well, go do what you want to do."

"But I can't bear to leave you, and I don't want to throw the responsibility that should belong to me to you." Xu Huaian hugged her in his arms.

"On the one hand, I know that a man must achieve success and to be honest, I also longed for such an opportunity.

But when it really came, I became worried and wavering, and did not dare to agree easily.

These two years have taught me to cherish what I have around me. Huanhuan, you are the most precious thing in my heart, and I am afraid of losing you.

Tell me, what should I do? "

If you take a step forward, you won't be able to take care of your family; if you take a step back, you'll seem like a coward. No matter which choice you make, you'll be in a dilemma. This is what a soldier is like.

Gu Qinghuan felt his hot embrace and hugged him back gently, feeling more at peace than ever before.

It was also the first time that he opened his heart to Xu Huaian and expressed his thoughts.

"Xu Huaian, go ahead and be a better version of yourself. You belong to a wider world, and an eagle shouldn't be trapped in this corner.

I want us all to be better people.

I actually have an idea in my mind. After the situation stabilizes and the college entrance examination is resumed, I want to take the college entrance examination and study psychology systematically.

I hope to use more professional knowledge to help people with mental disorders in the future.

Whether it is post-war psychological disorders, depression, or autism, I want to understand their world and truly help them out of their difficulties, not just relying on spiritual spring water.

God sent me here and gave me space and spiritual springs. It must be for more than just a visit. I think I have found the meaning of my trip.

I want to spread more advanced ideas of the future to this land and help more people out of their difficulties.”

Gu Qinghuan did not do this on a whim, she had been thinking about this matter for a long time. In the short six months since she came here, she had come across many cases where people could not be cured in time due to mental frustration.

Without her help, Xu Huaian would most likely end up being buried in the wilderness due to his post-war psychological problems.

Zhong Luoning's depression, Xu Youran's autism, although she didn't know what happened to them in their previous lives, she could imagine that Xu Jianguo would not let them have a good life, and they would probably end up miserably.

And Fang Zhengping, without her help, his condition would most likely continue to worsen and he would not receive timely treatment.

Although his family was well off and he didn't have to sleep on the streets, his life should have been brighter.

All these things made her feel that she had to do something on this trip.

Although we cannot build airplanes and cannons, and cannot benefit all mankind, we can at least use advanced ideas from future generations to change the fate of these vulnerable groups.

It was worth it that Hades generously gave her the space and spiritual spring water.

When she first came here, she really just wanted to treat it as a trip and have a leisurely trip.

Now she has considered herself a part of this world. Even if she cannot be its savior, she can at least contribute her part.

Xu Huaian never expected that his young wife had such lofty ambitions, and he was deeply moved.

"Huanhuan, it seems like I really understand you for the first time, and it also seems like I've known for a long time that you are this kind of person.

If I had the chance, I would really like to visit your world and experience the civilization there.

If this is what you like, I support you to go for it, and like you said, we can work together to become better people.”

At this moment, the two seemed to be in tune with each other and could understand each other's thoughts without much words.

Xu Huaian already knows the trajectory of historical development. The world will soon change and the future will still be dominated by intellectuals. He strongly supports Gu Qinghuan's desire to go to college and do what she wants to do.

In fact, after listening to Gu Qinghuan's ideas, he felt ashamed for a moment. As a soul from another world, Gu Qinghuan was thinking about making the world a better place and helping more people.

But all he has in his mind is love, which is really wrong.

At this moment, he made up his mind to work hard on his own to pave a smooth path for Gu Qinghuan, protect her dreams, and be her solid backing rather than a burden.

Whether it is love or friendship, two people must advance and retreat together and be at the same level for the relationship to last.

The two agreed that Xu Huaian would return to Beijing to work next year, while Gu Qinghuan would stay in Xujiatun temporarily to take care of Zhong Zijun and the others, and while taking care of the children, he could also review for the college entrance examination.

It’s not that she doesn’t want to go back to Beijing, but there are still many things here that she can’t give up, so she can only wait.

Wait until she gets admitted to university, wait for the Zhong family to be rehabilitated, wait for everything to settle down, I hope this day will not be too far away.

Xu Huaian also understood her decision.

When the two of them agreed to go out again, the house had been tidied up and everyone sat on Gu Qinghuan's kang, eating pine nuts and chatting.

Gu Lanting had already cleaned up the remaining fish, mainly thanks to Ji Linhai. After killing them all, he washed them again and waited for Gu Qinghuan's next arrangements.

When Ji Linhai sent Zhong Zijun away, Gu Qinghuan had already asked him to help bring a bucket of fish over, which was left to Zhong Zijun to use as she pleased.

The rest are on her side.

In order to avoid them being frozen and having to be thawed the next day, Gu Qinghuan processed them overnight.

Save the fresh ones and freeze them outside. In this weather, they will harden quickly.

Half of the remaining fish is smeared with salt and seasonings and hung on the beam in the kitchen to make cured fish. The high temperature in the kitchen is suitable for making cured fish.

Cut the other half into pieces and marinate with seasonings. When you are ready to eat, just take a few pieces out of the jar.

All in all, they are delicious methods.

Xu Huai'an accompanied her throughout the packing. Gu Qinghuan urged him to go to bed and rest several times, but he refused.

Fortunately, this job is quick.

Tonight's sleeping arrangements are the same as yesterday, except that Gu Lanting, Dabao, and Xu Huaian sleep in one room, and the others sleep in another.

We are all very tired today, so we went to bed early to prepare for tomorrow's market.

Especially Xu Huaian and Gu Lanting, one was in a hurry on the road and the other was killing fish, so they had used up all their strength and fell asleep almost the moment they lay down.

The next morning, everyone got up early and packed up.

Gu Qinghuan didn't have time to prepare a complicated breakfast, so she heated up a basket of buns she had made yesterday, fried a pot of egg pancakes, and gave each person a cup of milk powder as breakfast.

After the family had dinner, they prepared to set off.

Everyone is going today, and Ji Linhai is going with them.

Yesterday, Zhong Zijun said that she had everything at home, so she would not join in the fun and let them have fun.

Gu Lanting conjured up two homemade sleds from somewhere, one for Ji Linhai and one for himself.

"Come on, sister, get on!" He patted the sled and was really ready to pull Gu Qinghuan.

Jokes aside, Gu Qinghuan was really embarrassed to go up.

It just so happened that today they brought dozens of kilograms of vegetables over to exchange for goods, and Gu Lanting's sled was just the right size to hold the vegetables.

There was a big basket on Ji Linhai's sled, which was covered with warm things. He was pulling several children. Everyone was relieved because he was strong and steady.

There was no shortage of vegetables at home. The cellar and the space were full, so Gu Qinghuan planned to take some out to exchange for other things.

This was also inspired by Qian Caihua yesterday.

Let's see what we can exchange these vegetables for.

At the agreed time, the whole family arrived at the entrance of the village in a mighty manner. Erdan's family was also ready to go. There were also many families in the village who set out with large and small bags on their backs. It seemed that they were also going to the Sanlitun market.

When Erdan saw them coming, he ran over quickly and squeezed into the frame of three people.

The group chatted as they headed towards Sanlitun. The road was difficult to travel on, but everyone was united, talking and laughing, and an hour passed quickly.

During this time, Zhong Luoning and Ming Ruxue could no longer walk, so they took turns sitting on Gu Lanting's sled for a while.

On the contrary, Gu Qinghuan was very strong and could walk along with him without any problem.

Xu Huaian also whispered in her ear: "Are you tired? Otherwise, let me carry you on my back!" He was eager to try.

Gu Qinghuan shook his head violently, his whole face full of rejection.

Although they were a legal couple, if they did this in front of everyone, she would become the laughing stock of the entire Xujiatun before the evening. It was scary to think about it.

Xu Huaian looked quite regretful.

Gu Qinghuan quietly distanced herself from him.

Although Gu Lanting's body is not as strong as Xu Huaian's, he is still strong. The spiritual spring water has not been wasted. He pulled the sled all the way here and refused to let anyone replace him.

The group finally arrived at Sanlitun, and there were visibly more people there.

Ming Ruxue and Zhong Luoning had lived in the city since childhood and had never seen such rural scenes. Along the way, they felt like Granny Liu entering the Grand View Garden, where everything was new to them.

Sometimes the questions asked made Chen Fengqin laugh.

When you get close to the Sanlitun market, it's basically crowded.

Gu Qinghuan asked several children to get off the sled and hold the hands of adults so that they would not get lost easily.

It's called a market, but there are so many people there. What if there are human traffickers?

Because there were so many people, it was easy to be squeezed apart and couldn't get together, while Ming Ruxue, Gu Lanting, Zhong Luoning and others wanted to walk around alone.

So Gu Qinghuan simply let them move around freely and took a few children with him to play. When they had enough fun, they gathered under the big banyan tree at the entrance of Sanlitun market.

Ji Linhai also had to go exchange some daily necessities he needed, so he separated from them temporarily.

Erdan's family also acted alone.

Only Gu Qinghuan and Xu Huaian were left pulling a sled of vegetables. They looked at each other and laughed.

This is good, they can take the opportunity to smuggle some things out of the space, such as some dried goods and pears that were previously stored in the space.

Gu Qinghuan had taken out a large bag of pears and frozen them in the snow last night. They were real frozen pears, and they could be smuggled out of the space and taken back later.

There are also pheasants, rabbits and other things that are never too much. There are many people in the family, so we eat everything quickly.

It’s a pity that time is too tight today, otherwise Xu Huaian would have planned to kill a wild boar, goat, deer, etc. in the space and take some meat back to eat slowly.

But don’t worry, there will be opportunities later.

The two walked away in the market.
