Three days before the arrival of experts from the Provincial Museum, the atmosphere at the Yang County Ruins had already become extremely lively.

After the excavation scope was expanded, the team members were able to clean out more than a dozen pieces of porcelain from the late Song Dynasty every day.

Gu Fanxing and Ling Jiuer spend every day at the ruins, organizing porcelain fragments and recording data...

Pei Luonan looked at Gu Fanxing busy and felt both distressed and relieved.

Every morning he would go to the county town to buy the soy milk and red bean paste buns that Gu Fanxing liked to eat. At noon, he would ask the kitchen to make her favorite stir-fried shrimps and tofu soup. In the evening, he would accompany her to sort the porcelain pieces in the tent, and occasionally make her a cup of warm osmanthus tea to remind her to rest.

That afternoon, the sky suddenly turned gloomy, and the awning next to the exploration area was blown to the point of collapse by the wind.

Gu Fanxing was sorting out a piece of porcelain she had just found. Seeing the weather change, she felt nervous: "Oh no, it's going to rain! These porcelain pieces haven't been sorted out yet. If they get wet, they will be damaged!"

Ling Jiuer was also panicking: "What should we do? Should we move the porcelain pieces back to the tent now? But there are still many porcelain pieces in the ruins that have not been cleared out!"

Pei Luonan immediately came over and said calmly, "Don't panic. I've asked Du Fei to take the team to get the waterproof sheet. Let's put the cleaned porcelain pieces into a sealed box and move them into the tent. Then we'll cover the exploration area with the waterproof sheet to prevent rainwater from seeping in and damaging the soil and the porcelain pieces inside."

Gu Fanxing immediately picked up the sealed box and carefully placed the porcelain pieces inside.

Ling Jiuer and other team members also hurried to help, some sorted the porcelain pieces, some carried the sealed boxes, and the scene was busy and orderly.

When Du Fei and his team members came over with the waterproof sheet, the rain had already started to fall.

Pei Luonan took the waterproof cloth and climbed up the rack next to the exploration square with Du Fei. They unfolded the waterproof cloth, covered the exploration square with it, and secured it with a rope.

The raindrops were getting bigger and bigger, making a crackling sound when hitting the waterproof cloth.

Gu Fanxing stood at the door of the tent, looking at Pei Luonan's busy figure, her heart filled with heartache.

When Pei Luonan came down, she immediately ran over and handed him the towel: "Luonan, wipe it quickly, don't catch a cold."

Pei Luonan took the towel and wiped the rain off his face, then smiled and said, "It's okay, I'm in good health, this little rain is nothing. The exploration area has been built, and the porcelain pieces have been moved back to the tent, don't worry."

Ling Jiuer also came over and handed Du Fei a dry towel: "Du Fei, you should wipe it too. It was too dangerous when you were climbing the scaffold just now. It's raining so hard, you have to be careful."

Du Fei took the towel, smiled and nodded: "Don't worry, I'm fine. The most important thing now is to see if the porcelain pieces in the tent are damp. If they are, it will affect the subsequent identification."

Everyone returned to the tent, and Gu Fanxing immediately opened the sealed box and checked the porcelain pieces inside.

Fortunately, the sealed box was well sealed and the porcelain pieces did not get damp. She breathed a sigh of relief: "That's great, the porcelain pieces are fine. It's really thanks to Luo Nan just now. If it weren't for him, the porcelain pieces would definitely be damaged by the rain."

Pei Luonan came over and ruffled her hair: "Why are you being so polite to me? It is also my responsibility to protect the porcelain pieces. After all, you worked so hard to find them."

The rain outside was getting heavier, but the tent was particularly warm.

Pei Luonan made some ginger tea for everyone to drive away the cold.

Gu Fanxing took the ginger tea and took a sip. The warm ginger tea slid down her throat and her heart felt warm as well.

Ling Jiuer drank ginger tea, looked at Gu Fanxing and Pei Luonan, and said with a smile: "Xingxing, look how much President Pei loves you. When it rained just now, the first thing he thought of was to protect the porcelain pieces. He was afraid that the porcelain pieces you worked so hard to find would be damaged. This is what it means to love someone and love their dog, right?"

Gu Fanxing's cheeks flushed slightly, but the corners of her mouth couldn't help but rise: "He has always been so considerate."

Pei Luonan looked at Gu Fanxing, his eyes full of pampering: "As long as you are happy, I am willing to do anything."

The rain continued until evening.

Gu Fanxing was worried that the soil in the exploration area would become soft due to the rain, so early the next morning, he went to the exploration area with Pei Luonan, Ling Jiuer and Du Fei to check.

Fortunately, the waterproof cloth was covered tightly and there was no obvious sign of looseness in the soil. There was just some water accumulated at the edge of the exploration area, which needed to be cleaned up.

"That's great, the soil layer is fine, we can continue excavating." Gu Fanxing breathed a sigh of relief and a smile appeared on his face.

Du Fei smiled and said, "Now we can rest assured. Once the accumulated water is cleared, we can continue excavating in the afternoon and try to find more porcelain fragments before the experts arrive."

While digging in the afternoon, Ling Jiuer made a new discovery: "Xingxing! Look what this is!" Ling Jiuer came over, her eyes full of excitement, "It looks like a complete artifact!"

Gu Fanxing's heart beat faster and she cleaned the dirt more carefully, fearing that she would break the utensils.

As the dirt was cleared away bit by bit, a complete porcelain bowl from the late Song Dynasty slowly emerged. "Great! It's a complete porcelain bowl!" Gu Fanxing exclaimed excitedly, "We finally found a complete artifact!"

Pei Luonan looked at her happy face, his heart filled with relief. He gently hugged Gu Fanxing: "Xingxing, congratulations, your efforts have not been in vain."

Ling Jiuer also jumped up excitedly: "That's amazing! Xingxing, we found a complete porcelain bowl! The experts will definitely be surprised when they come!"

Du Fei also smiled and said, "Now you have enough information. When the experts come, they will be able to more accurately determine the age and characteristics of the kiln. Maybe they can even publish an important paper."

Gu Fanxing leaned in Pei Luonan's arms, tears kept falling: "Luonan, thank you for always being with me. If it weren't for you, we would definitely not be able to find this porcelain bowl."

"Silly girl," Pei Luonan wiped her tears with a gentle tone, "This is the result of your hard work. I just helped you a little. You will find more complete artifacts in the future, and I will always be with you."

When the team members heard the news, they all gathered around and looked at the intact porcelain bowl with excitement on their faces.

Everyone was talking at once, and the tent was filled with laughter.

Gu Fanxing looked at everything in front of her, her heart filled with happiness - not only did she find the complete artifact she had always dreamed of, but she also had people who loved her and friends who supported her. This was probably the best life in life.

At night, Gu Fanxing carefully placed the porcelain bowl into a special protective box and placed it in the safest place in the tent.

Pei Luonan accompanied her and helped her organize the photos and data of the porcelain bowl. He also recorded the process of discovering the porcelain bowl in a notebook next to her, remembering every detail clearly.

"Luonan, what do you think the experts would say when they see this porcelain bowl?" Gu Fanxing leaned on Pei Luonan's shoulder and asked softly.

"They'll definitely be surprised."

Pei Luonan smiled and said, "This porcelain bowl is highly complete, with clear patterns and kiln marks. It is very valuable for studying local kilns in the late Song Dynasty. Maybe we will invite you to give a report at the provincial museum to share your findings."

Gu Fanxing's eyes were full of anticipation: "Really? I never thought I would be able to give a report at the Provincial Museum."

"Of course it's true," Pei Luonan held her hand, his tone firm, "You are so outstanding, you deserve to be seen by more people. I will help you prepare the materials for the report and accompany you to the Provincial Museum."

Gu Fanxing looked at Pei Luonan, her heart filled with emotion.

She knew that no matter how many challenges there were in the future, as long as Pei Luonan was by her side, she could face them bravely, because he was her strongest backing and warmest support.

The moonlight outside the tent poured in and fell on the porcelain bowl in the protective box, giving it a faint luster.

Gu Fanxing leaned in Pei Luonan's arms, looking at the porcelain bowl with a faint smile on her lips.

She knew that this porcelain bowl was not only an important breakthrough in her archaeological career, but also a testimony to her relationship with Pei Luonan - they had experienced ups and downs together and harvested joy together, and this relationship would be like this porcelain bowl, becoming more precious with the passage of time.
