During the five-day holiday, Yun Suisui originally thought about returning to Hongshan Town, but was rejected by Gu Jun.

Because her back pain and joint pain have become more severe recently, and her calves and feet are always cramping, even riding in a car is a torture for her.

Moreover, the weather was hot and she couldn't eat. She had lost a lot of weight recently and looked even more frail.

Being pregnant is a troublesome thing. There are many people and gossips in the big courtyard, which is far less quiet than the small western-style building. It would be bad if someone bumped into you.

Yun Suisui thought about it and realized that it was the same, so she didn't think about going back.

Every day I prepare the medicinal materials for Shugan Liqi Pills step by step and teach Qu Pingping some pharmacological knowledge, and my life is very fulfilling.

At half past eight, today's study was over. She took Qu Pingping's hand and went downstairs. Just then, there was a knock on the door.

Aunt Yang thought it was Shao Yunwen who came to pick up the child, but when she opened the door, she found a young man she didn't recognize standing outside.

"Comrade, who are you looking for?"

The young man, however, looked at the people on the stairs with a gentle smile, "Sui Sui, long time no see!"

Yun Suisui was also very surprised to see him, "Brother Changan, why are you here?"

She said to Aunt Yang, "This is my childhood friend, Yan Changan. He's currently working as a researcher at the 43rd Army Military Factory."

Although Aunt Yang did not live in the compound, she knew that the army had been researching better equipment and that everyone in the military factory had a prominent background.

She had never been to school and had only learned a few words from the young lady before. She admired scholars the most and smiled immediately: "So you are my friend. Come in and sit down. I will wash some fruit for you!"

Yan Changan smiled and said, "Thank you, Auntie."

He walked in and saw Yun Suisui with a big belly and holding a little girl's hand, with hesitation in his eyes.

He looked at Qu Pingping and said, "This can't be your and Gu Jun's child, right?"

He remembered that he had only been locked up in the factory for four or five months. How could he have a baby so quickly?

Yun Suisui was amused by his conflicted expression, "If this is the child of Gu Jun and me, then who is the one in my belly?"

She touched the two little beads tied to Qu Pingping's head and introduced her, "This is Pingping, the child of a girl from the family compound, and my newest apprentice."

Qu Pingping was also a person who understood the ways of the world. She looked up and said in a baby voice, "Hello, uncle!"

Looking at her bright black eyes and round little face, Yan Changan couldn't help but think of Yun Suisui when she was a child. She also had big twinkling eyes, was bold and not at all stage-frightened. Every time she saw him, she would chase after him and call him Brother Changan.

He felt his heart melt, and he also touched Qu Pingping's little chirp, "Hello, Pingping, which ping is this?"

Qu Pingping answered crisply: "Ping as in apple!"

"It sounds so nice, no wonder you are so cute." Yan Changan praised.

Qu's father went to the countryside when Qu Pingping was a child. Qu Pingping no longer remembers what he looked like, but she remembers that he was a tall and strong man who spoke harshly to her and her mother.

But the uncle in front of her was different from all the male elders she had met before. His clothes were neatly dressed without any dirty dirt or sweat stains. He was handsome, spoke gently, and even praised her for being cute.

Qu Pingping blushed and smiled shyly, "Thank you, uncle."

Yan Changan patted the top of her head again, turned to look at Yun Suisui, and his gaze lingered on her belly for a few seconds. "Is pregnancy difficult?"

Although he didn't want to admit it, when he saw the skinny girl's belly bulging so big, his first reaction was to feel a little scared, followed by heartache.

Even if people drink too much water, they will feel bloated and uncomfortable all over, unable to sit or lie down steadily, and will feel dizzy if they move a little, not to mention carrying a baby in the belly.

Yun Suisui smiled and said, "It's certainly not easy, but when I think about it being my child, it feels quite novel."

"By the way, isn't it forbidden to enter or leave the factory at will? Why did you get out?"

Yan Changan's smile remained unchanged, but his eyes were more lively. "My father and I have basically completed our work, so we can take a short break."

Now it was Yun Suisui's turn to be surprised. "Is it finished? The transportation equipment has been developed?"

Yan Changan nodded. "Yes, it has been sent to the troops for test runs this afternoon. After the final debugging in a week, it can be put into mass production."

"Great!"

Yun Suisui also became excited.

Although many things in this life have changed compared to her previous life, she still feels uneasy occasionally.

Because the battle that led to Gu Jun's sacrifice has not been affected so far.

She didn't know the direct cause of Gu Jun's death, nor did she know what situation he was facing at the time. Even if she wanted to prevent it in advance, she was powerless. She could only start with the details, hoping that these details would eventually affect the outcome.

The successful development of the new transport vehicle will be a benefit to the upcoming operations. It is a good thing not only for her, but also for the entire Chinese combat army!

Seeing her so happy, Yan Changan's smile became much more sincere.

Yun Suisui looked at him and asked, "After this research project is completed, what will the higher-ups do with you and Uncle Yan?"

"My father's appointment has come down. I will stay in the military factory to do research and development."

Yan Changan smiled sheepishly. "As for me, I'm still going to teach at school, just like before. But I haven't decided which school yet, so I'm still living in the factory for the time being."

He was able to participate in the research before because he happened to discover a data error by chance, but he lacked the qualifications and practical experience, and his understanding of materials and machinery was average, so he naturally could not stay in the military factory.

He knew his own level well, so he was not too sad. Instead, he felt that the past six months had been a very valuable experience.

Moreover, because he participated in the research and development and was familiar with the data and information of the new transport vehicle, the leaders did not dare to let him teach in other places. They could only let him register at the town middle school and not go there until the new transport vehicle was mass-produced.

Yan Changan naturally had no objection. Even if he didn't work, he still had seniority. What a great thing!
