A 1970s mom raises a cute baby, and a crazy boss spoils her
Chapter 354 The journey has just begun, and there is a long way to go.
Finally, I also bought a barbecue grill, charcoal, skewers and other tools.
The two of them walked back on foot, pushing the large and small bags on their bicycles.
Gu Lanting took Zhong Weiqian and his wife over directly. When the couple learned that the three of them had done so well in the exam, they were overjoyed and wanted to tell the world.
Ming Ruxue went to the school to tell Zhong Zijun the news. For the first time in her life, Zhong Zijun felt so proud and proud because her two children were so successful.
When other teachers in the office learned that both of her children were admitted to Huaqing University, they all congratulated her.
Even though they are all teachers at Huaqing University, their children may not necessarily be admitted to Huaqing University.
A family’s ancestral grave cannot always be emitting smoke.
As conditions improved, the children's hearts became wilder. They couldn't settle down and were only concerned with eating, drinking and having fun.
This time when the college entrance examination was resumed, some of their children took it. So far, only Zhong Zijun's child has reported good news.
Moreover, both of them did so well in the exams, one was the top scorer in science in the city, and the other was also in the top five.
Such results are among the best in the country, it is excellent.
"Teacher Zhong, how did you train them? Both of them are so strong."
"That's right, please share some of your experience."
…Several teachers teased her.
While tidying up the books on the table, Zhong Zijun said with a wry smile: "I don't have any experience. I have been in the countryside for seven or eight years, and these two children have come through it all on their own.
If there is any way, it may be suffering, because suffering makes people grow. "
Suffering can give people tremendous energy. Of course, talent and hard work are also important.
But Zhong Zijun believes that if nothing had happened, the two children might also have been admitted to university, but they would never have done so well.
Everything that fate gives us has already been clearly priced.
Several teachers smiled awkwardly and said nothing more. They all knew that Zhong Zijun had been sent down to the countryside. They heard that life in the cowshed in the countryside was not easy and it was not easy to survive.
In comparison, it doesn’t matter if my own children are almost there. It’s better for them to live well than anything else.
Zhong Zijun had finished her morning classes. She packed up her things, said goodbye to a few teachers, and hurried home with Ming Ruxue.
They also lived together during this time.
When they got home, Gu Qinghuan and the others had not returned yet. Zhong Zijun first called Liang Zhiqiu in a panic, told her the good news about the children, and asked her to come over for dinner.
Liang Zhiqiu was grinning from ear to ear on the other end. She had wanted to go with Gu Qinghuan to check the results today, but she was afraid of making Gu Qinghuan nervous, so she simply waited for news at home.
This news is great!
She quickly packed up and prepared to go out. Before leaving, she called her husband to tell him the good news and asked him to go directly to the child's home for dinner after get off work that night.
Yun Runtong said three good words in a row on the other end of the phone.
When the Yun family came to him, they were not very prosperous and were almost extinct. He certainly had high hopes for the younger generations, as talents are always the core of a prosperous family.
After hanging up the phone, Zhong Zijun quickly prepared lunch with Wang Xiaowei and took out all the vegetables in the refrigerator to cook.
Ming Ruxue also received a call from Ming's parents. Although they could not come in person, they expressed their blessings to their daughter over the phone.
When Gu Qinghuan and Yun Jiuzhou arrived home, everyone who should have arrived was already there, except for Ji Linhai, Yun Runtong, and Zhong Ziyan.
After a lively lunch, the family began to prepare ingredients for the BBQ in the evening.
Gu Qinghuan was the commander-in-chief, directing everyone on how to operate the food. He also took the time to prepare a bowl of all-purpose barbecue ingredients.
The two men, Gu Lanting and Yun Jiuzhou, did the heavy and dirty work, making the charcoal fire.
Others were cutting and skewering, chatting while they worked.
In this age without mobile phones and without many choices, the family has more time to spend on ordinary life, which is simple, warm and plain.
Such a simple life has become a luxury in later generations, as everyone is immersed in a fast-paced work life.
Even when they have a party or a meal, they just find a random restaurant to sit down, eat and then leave. There is no human touch at all.
So Gu Qinghuan cherishes such days especially. She takes out her camera and records these precious scenes.
Zhong Zijun said jokingly: "What's so good about filming us working now? We are all covered in dust and dirt. Let's film it in the evening!"
Gu Qinghuan retorted: "Mom, you don't understand. What I want to record is the most real you at this moment. What's the point of posing for a photo?"
Liang Zhiqiu picked up an eggplant and stood in front of the camera, making a funny face: "Haha, is this real enough?"
Made everyone laugh.
You Ran also rushed into Gu Qinghuan's camera while holding her rabbit: "Aunt, take a picture of me and the little rabbit too."
Gu Qinghuan quickly pressed the shutter to record her smile.
The little rabbits fed by the three little guys are now gathered together again. Every now and then the three children will bring their rabbit friends to a party. Fortunately, they are kept in separate cages and are not put together.
Otherwise, Gu Qinghuan was afraid that she would not only have to be the little rabbit's grandmother, but also the great-grandmother, and great-great-grandmother, and it would be endless. If anyone said they wanted to give a rabbit to their child in the future, she would be angry. It would be too difficult to deal with.
By the way, no one knows what stage the relationship between Zhong Luo Ning and Xiao Zhuo has reached. It’s strange that Xiao Zhuo didn’t smell the scent and come over today.
Seeing this, Bai Jie hurried over and motioned to Gu Qinghuan to take a photo of her and her granddaughter. Now Youran and her are getting along very well, and the two of them have endless things to talk about.
After Bai Jie finished taking the photos, Dabao and Beibei also rushed over. The three little guys huddled together, showing their big teeth, and the camera recorded this scene.
The family was leisurely preparing, playing, and immersed in laughter.
In order to cater to the children's tastes, Gu Qinghuan marinated some meat and chicken wings for them using New Orleans marinade.
I made another bowl of ice jelly and put it in the refrigerator to chill.
All is ready except for the opportunity.
From 5:30 to 6:00 in the evening, everyone came one after another, including Yun Runtong, Zhong Ziyan, and even Ji Linhai who took the rare time to come.
Zhong Zijun called him just to tell him the good news. In fact, his work was at a critical time.
But as a father, I cannot miss this important event for my two children, even though I am a stepfather.
He has no children of his own, and Zhong Zijun's two children are his own children.
When Ji Linhai came back, he specially bought roast duck and Dingsheng cake to celebrate the success of his two children.
When everyone arrived, the banquet officially began.
Today is a family dinner. There is no formality. Except for a few elderly people, everyone has to help with the work and then enjoy the delicious food together. It is quite interesting.
The beautiful Chinese-style courtyard is filled with the laughter of adults and children, accompanied by the music from the phonograph.
Yun Jiuzhou and Gu Lanting sat opposite each other in front of the stove and grilled meat for everyone. The two of them were sweating in the smoke and fire, but they enjoyed it.
Gu Qinghuan, along with Wang Xiaowei, Ji's nanny, and Zhong Luoning, started working.
There are several charcoal braziers in the corner of the yard to dispel the winter cold.
Plates of grilled meat were brought to the table.
Drinks and teas of various flavors were prepared, and the table was filled with all kinds of food, so you could take whatever you wanted to eat.
Zhong Zijun, Liang Zhiqiu and Bai Jie are of similar age and have common topics. It is rare for them to sit down and chat, and they keep praising each other's children.
The two fathers, Yun Runtong and Ji Linhai, were able to chat with each other while having a drink and eating the barbecue made by their sons.
Neither of them brought any guards with them today, so they had to fend for themselves.
Well, this barbecue is really delicious. I don’t know how the kids came up with this idea, but it’s quite enjoyable to do it occasionally.
Grandpa Ji and Zhong Weiqian and his wife got together and looked at the young generations in the room. They felt so happy and their lives were complete.
The children each held a chicken wing and gnawed on it like cats, while discussing some secret.
As the lights came on, Gu Qinghuan took out many lanterns and hung them under the corridor. The yard became hazy and the atmosphere became better.
Hearing the doorbell, Wang Xiaowei hurried to open the door.
It turned out to be Xiao Zhuo and his mother!
Xiao Fengying's voice arrived before she did.
"Xiao Qinghuan, what's wrong? You won't keep in touch with me after you moved? It's such a big event, but you didn't even invite me to the party! I can only come uninvited." Xiao Fengying joked.
Gu Qinghuan hurried over to greet her: "Aunt Xiao, it's nothing. I'm just afraid of bothering you. It's nothing serious. I'm sorry for the expense."
"You are too modest. I heard that you two did very well in the exam. One ranked first in the city, and the other ranked in the top five. You are worthy of being from the Zhong family. You are outstanding!"
Xiao Fengying and Xiao Zhuo had so many bags in their hands that they had nowhere to put them.
Gu Qinghuan quickly signaled Wang Xiaowei to take it and carry it away, then invited the mother and son to take their seats.
"I brought a few bottles of wine. Let them open some to liven up the party later!" Xiao Fengying pointed to the things in the bag.
"Xiao Wei, go open the wine."
Gu Qinghuan nodded and asked Wang Xiaowei to do it.
Zhong Zijun and the others had met Xiao Zhuo before, but had not met Xiao Fengying yet.
Gu Qinghuan had no choice but to act as an introducer.
"This is Dr. Xiao's mother, Ms. Xiao Fengying. We used to live close to each other and often played together." After saying that, Gu Qinghuan briefly introduced Xiao Fengying to everyone one by one.
As expected of someone who has been abroad, Xiao Fengying is a very open-minded person. After just a few words, she started chatting with Zhong Zijun and Bai Jie.
There is no need for Gu Qinghuan to worry about anything.
Zhong Zijun thought that Xiao Zhuo would be Gu Qinghuan's teacher in the future, so she had to treat her daughter's teacher with some care, so she warmly invited her to sit down.
Although Bai Jie had never met Xiao Fengying, she knew that Xiao Zhuo had done Luo Ning a favor, so she was polite to Xiao Fengying.
Seeing the two people's attitude towards her, Liang Zhiqiu naturally started chatting with her.
"I really envy your big family. We have everything in our family except that we have no one. We can't have fun even if we want to.
In the past few years since I returned to China, the few lively gatherings I have had were all hosted by your family. It was so comfortable. I like this style. "
Xiao Fengying didn't hesitate to sit down on the chair and picked up a skewer of roasted lamb.
Seeing her so relaxed, as if she were at home, Zhong Zijun also smiled.
Xiao Zhuo really doesn't look like his mother.
However, Xiao Fengying's outgoing personality does not make people feel annoying, but rather quite interesting.
Several people started chatting enthusiastically.
Because they all came from good families, lived a life of luxury, and had similar personalities and interests, the four of them had a very pleasant chat.
Xiao Zhuo glanced at Zhong Luoning who was sitting next to the children, then wanted to look at Gu Qinghuan: "Congratulations, you got what you wanted."
Gu Qinghuan cupped his hands and said, "Doctor Xiao, I will call you teacher from now on. Please go easy on me!"
She must study psychology. Xiao Zhuo is a professor in the psychology department, and she will rely on him for support in the future.
Xiao Zhuo also made a rare joke: "It depends on the situation!"
Gu Qinghuan pretended to be angry and whispered: "Some people still want to be my brother-in-law, but they don't even give me this little face!"
When Xiao Zhuo heard this, he was like an ant on a hot pan. He wanted to reach out and cover Gu Qinghuan's mouth, but he felt it was inappropriate and took his hand back.
How did she know that she liked Zhong Luo Ning?
Gu Qinghuan rolled her eyes helplessly. She didn’t know whether to say this guy was innocent or stupid.
Even He Qiang knows that if you like a girl, you have to show it, say it with your mouth, and give her gifts to please her.
He who is close to the water gets the moon first. He has known Zhong Luoning for such a long time and they meet frequently, but there is still no progress. He is really a blockhead.
If she doesn't help, the two of them might never be together.
After knowing each other for such a long time, Xiao Zhuo is a good person. At least for Zhong Luo Ning, he is a good choice.
So Gu Qinghuan felt that they could bring them together, but whether it would succeed or not depended on them.
"If you want to be my brother-in-law, you'd better work harder. I heard from my aunt that she is looking for an opportunity to introduce a boyfriend to my sister." Gu Qinghuan deliberately fanned the flames to create anxiety for Xiao Zhuo.
Sure enough, Xiao Zhuo's face changed when he heard this.
"Really?"
"If you don't believe it, forget it. But if my sister is chased away by someone else, don't regret it." Gu Qinghuan looked serious, her heart full of joy.
After lighting a fire for Xiao Zhuo, Gu Qinghuan leisurely took a handful of skewers in his hand and ate while taking care of everyone.
Yun Jiuzhou and Gu Lanting had almost finished grilling and came over to eat and drink together.
Everyone has already drunk Xiao Fengying's red wine. Although red wine and barbecue are a bit inappropriate, as long as you are happy.
Today, except for a few children, everyone drank some wine, the atmosphere was right, and we were happy!
"Let's raise our glasses together to congratulate Qinghuan and Lanting, the brother and sister, for getting their names on the list of successful candidates. Their long and successful journey has just begun." Xiao Fengying was indeed a master at creating an atmosphere. With just one voice, she pushed the atmosphere to a climax.
Everyone raised their glasses to congratulate.
The head of the family, Zhong Weiqian, also stood up and said: "The ten years of hard study have finally paid off. When your names are on the list of successful candidates, children, set sail. May your lives shine from now on."
Gu Lanting shed a line of tears unconsciously and wiped them quietly with his sleeve.
The spring breeze is proud of horseshoe disease, seeing Chang'an flowers in one day.
No one cared about my hard study for ten years, but I became famous overnight.
His mood fluctuated greatly today. There were too many crossroads in his life. Fortunately, he was lucky and seized every opportunity, which led to his current situation.
Ming Ruxue quietly held his hand, as if to cheer him up.
