Professor Gu's daily life in the countryside after his rebirth

Bearing the heartache, all the chickens in the chicken farm were killed and disposed of harmlessly, and then the epidemic prevention staff carried out thorough disinfection, and the current work was completely completed.

According to scientific methods, this disinfection should last for two months. Only if no virus is detected can breeding continue.

Coincidentally, a similar incident occurred in Xia County, and was handled in almost the same way.

In addition to directing the killing and disinfection work, the guidance group was also responsible for the defense and protection of the surrounding areas. After a month, the group was so busy that they lost a lot of weight.

On the day he returned to Ontario, after getting off the car, Gu Zhan went straight home to put down his luggage. When he was about to go to the laboratory, Liu Xiaoxi and Gu Xinxin came home.

"You're back?" Liu Xiaoxi said in surprise.

"Dad!" Gu Xinxin hadn't seen her father for a month and threw herself into his arms.

Gu Zhan hugged his daughter and wife, and said tiredly, "I'm going to the lab now. You guys eat first. I'll be home later."

"What?" Liu Xiaoxi had never expected that Gu Zhan would go to the lab right after returning. However, seeing Gu Zhan's face, which had obviously become thinner, Liu Xiaoxi felt distressed. "Have a good sleep after dinner before going to work."

"I can't take care of it. I have to go and do my work first." Hearing his wife's request to stay, Gu Zhan refused in a distracted manner.

Liu Xiaoxi was stunned for a moment. Gu Zhan was not in this state before he left. Why did he become like this now?

Liu Xiaoxi didn't know what happened on this trip. She just felt that Gu Zhan's current appearance made her feel a little strange, as if the man standing in front of her was not the man who had been with her for almost ten years.

"What's wrong with you?" Liu Xiaoxi asked subconsciously and cautiously.

Gu Zhan knew that his current condition was not good, and the tone he used when talking to his wife was not nice either.

But the guilt in his heart was almost swallowing him up.

Although no effective medicine to treat avian influenza was introduced at home or abroad at the same time, as a reborn person, he already had idle abilities, but he still failed to develop the medicine for avian influenza at the required time.

To be honest, when he was carrying out the culling and epidemic prevention guidance work in Xia County, he even felt speechless facing those eager eyes of the breeders.

During the time between his departure and his return, he thought a lot and deeply realized the responsibility on his shoulders.

Coming back from his thoughts, seeing his wife's concerned eyes on him, Gu Zhan grinned slightly and comforted his wife, "Don't worry, I'm fine. I've just been away for so long. I'll go check on the progress at the lab and be back soon."

Gu Zhan said this, and Liu Xiaoxi felt relieved. "Then go quickly. I'll prepare dinner and wait for you."

"Dad, Xinxin is waiting for you to come home for dinner."

Looking at his daughter's adorable appearance, Gu Zhan nodded gently: "Okay, I'll be back soon."

Gu Zhan rushed to the laboratory as soon as possible. Just as he was changing his clothes and preparing to go in, Qu Hongbo arrived.

When the two met, they both smiled bitterly.

Qu Hongbo was the dean. Seeing Gu Zhan's hard work and dedication, he forced a smile and greeted him, "Little Gu, you're here?"

"Yeah, I just came out of the house."

After the simple greeting, the atmosphere fell into an eerie silence.

Liu Xu, who was still busy in the laboratory, saw the unusual atmosphere between the two and swallowed the greeting he was about to say.

Time passed so quickly in the lab that it felt like only half an hour had passed. In reality, it was already pitch dark. Liu Xu suppressed his curiosity as he watched Qu Hongbo and Gu Zhan work hard. After a long mental preparation, he finally said as they neared the starting point, "Dean, Gu Zhan, aren't you guys going to eat?"

These words brought the two of them back from their experiments.

Gu Zhan looked up and found that it was dark. Thinking of the promise he made to his wife and daughter to go home for dinner when he left home at noon, he began to pack up the things on the laboratory table.

Liu Xu looked surprised: "Are you planning to go home for dinner today?"

Gu Zhan smiled and said, "Well, let's go home and eat. My wife and daughter are waiting for us at home."

As soon as he finished speaking, Qu Hongbo stopped what he was doing and said, "Wait for me, I'll go back too."

Liu Xu...

It turned out that the two of them didn't quarrel. Seeing the awkward atmosphere between them today, he thought that Dean Qu and Gu Zhan had quarreled.

On the way back, Qu Hongbo said to Gu Zhan with deep feeling: "After going to the grassroots, I understand why you are so eager to develop a drug to treat bird flu. If ordinary people want to get rich through industry, basic scientific research services must keep up. Otherwise, if we encounter special circumstances, the efforts of several generations will be destroyed.

This special experience helped Qu Hongbo find his future research direction.

"Xiao Gu, your persistence is right." Qu Hongbo said suddenly.

Gu Zhan knew that this trip had also been tough on Qu Hongbo, a fellow agricultural researcher. His previous work hadn't been done well, and he needed to focus on needs and problems in his future research.

"Dean, are you kidding me? I came from the countryside, and I know what the countryside lacks the most right now."

Gu Zhan's words reminded Qu Hongbo of the complaint made by a farm owner in Xia County when the culling operation was underway: "Gu Zhan, as someone who left Xia County, you've forgotten your roots."

Only a few people understood the culling work at that time, especially since it was based on self-interest. Most importantly, they had already done ideological work on the farm owner. The owner's words were like a wake-up call that struck the hearts of each of them.

“Yes, this incident is really a wake-up call.”

Gu Zhan remained silent. Qu Hongbo knew that he was in a bad situation and didn't say anything more. When they parted at the stairs, he told Gu Zhan, "Come up to my house after dinner."

"Okay, Dean." Gu Zhan agreed happily.

Liu Xiaoxi had finished cooking and was helping her daughter with homework while waiting for Gu Zhan to come home. Suddenly, she heard Gu Zhan's voice in the corridor. Xinxin said happily, "It's Daddy, Daddy is back. I'll go open the door."

"Well, let's go."

With a creaky sound, the door opened. Gu Zhan paused as he was about to open the door and pinched his daughter's face: "Do you miss your daddy?"

"I do!" Gu Xinxin said happily in a long voice. Fortunately, her father was happy at this moment, otherwise she would be embarrassed to say it.
