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

With the experience of going to the city for the first time, Gu Zhan was already familiar with the route the second time.

He was busy taking care of Liu Xiaoxi all the way.

It was Liu Xiaoxi's first time to go to the city. When he saw unfamiliar scenery and things along the way, he just wanted to stretch his neck to take a closer look.

Gu Zhan found it cute and held her waist, letting her look around.

This curiosity persisted all the way into the city.

"Wow, the buildings in the city are much taller than those in the county town."

Liu Xiaoxi said quietly.

After listening to her, Gu Zhan whispered in her ear, "It seems so."

There were no taxis at this time, so we had to walk to the guesthouse.

When they arrived at the front desk, Gu Zhan showed his production team certificate and marriage certificate. The staff quickly registered a room for the two of them, which was on the second floor.

After the two went upstairs, the staff member in charge of registration at the guesthouse couldn't wait to whisper to his colleagues: "Look, this is the young man from last time. He has changed his clothes this time and looks very handsome."

There was no other reason, it was simply because she had a deep impression of Gu Zhan. Even though the young man was wearing shabby clothes, his temperament was not affected at all, and it was eye-catching.

"You mean the one who just went upstairs?"

"That's right, but it's a pity that he's already married."

"She doesn't look very old, but I didn't expect she's already married."

Having stayed in a guesthouse once before, Liu Xiaoxi was not unfamiliar with the procedures for staying in a guesthouse. After going upstairs, she took the initiative to hold Gu Zhan's hand and took him to find a room.

After finding the room, Liu Xiaoxi took the key and opened the door. She waited for Gu Zhan to go in first before going in.

The room was very tidy and much larger than the room I stayed in in the county during my previous prenatal checkup. From a distance, the furnishings seemed more exquisite and colorful.

As soon as you enter the door, you can smell a fresh scent of soap, which is the smell you can only smell in a country room when you wash up in the morning.

Liu Xiaoxi greedily breathed in the fresh fragrance in the air and felt extremely comfortable. The smell of gasoline that he had smelled all day finally disappeared.

“It smells so good!”

At this moment, Liu Xiaoxi no longer felt sorry for the three dollars for accommodation. She just felt that it was worth it to be able to see such a place once, even if it cost three dollars.

For dinner, at Liu Xiaoxi's strong request, the two went to the state-owned canteen and bought five meat-filled buns. Liu Xiaoxi had a small appetite and ate one and a half, and the rest went into Gu Zhan's stomach.

On the way back, Gu Zhan took Liu Xiaoxi for a long walk on the street until Liu Xiaoxi complained of sore legs, and then he took them back.

When Liu Xiaoxi got to the room, he was still thinking about the lights he had seen outside. "That light on the street is so bright. It would be great if we had one in our village too."

"There will be." Gu Zhan said.

It is now 1976, and in just over two years, the spring breeze of reform and opening up will blow across the land of China.

By then, everything here will have undergone earth-shaking changes. The farmers' food, clothing, housing and transportation will be greatly improved, productivity will continue to increase, people's various needs will be met, and living standards will continue to improve.

As for the issue of electricity, a few years before his death, he had already achieved 100% electricity access.

What's more, Xia County has relatively good natural conditions, so it won't take several years for full electrification.

Thinking of this, Gu Zhan felt a sense of urgency. In this life, he still planned to go to college, because it was the beginning of his career that would last for a long time.

But in this life, he will not focus more on various experiments, but rather wants to change the lives of the people here through science and the transformation of experimental results, so that they can enter a well-off life earlier.

Liu Xiaoxi thought for a while, then followed Gu Zhan's example and nodded, saying, "I believe it too. There will be."

Gu Zhan asked with great interest, "Why are you so sure?"

"Look, our family's life is getting better day by day, and everyone's life will definitely get better day by day."

"Well, my wife is right."

Liu Xiaoxi punched Gu Zhan lightly. What was he talking about? He was talking about serious matters.

The two of them rushed around all day and slept until dawn.

Early in the morning, Gu Zhan brought hot steamed buns and millet porridge in a lunch box.

After being influenced by Gu Zhan's wild spending for some time, Liu Xiaoxi has become accustomed to it.

After having breakfast at the table in the room, Gu Zhan told Liu Xiaoxi, "Stay in the room and don't run around. I'm going to the Agricultural Technology Center to hand in the book and translation manuscript. I'll be back soon."

"Well, I know."

Liu Xiaoxi pushed the nagging Gu Zhan out of the room and locked the door from the inside.

Liu Xiaoxi pouted and stood in front of the door. After hearing Gu Zhan's footsteps leaving, she began to laugh secretly and called herself smart.

Gu Zhan was being nagging terribly. If he didn't urge him to go out quickly, he would probably keep nagging for most of the day before going out. It would be bad if he missed something by then.

Before going down the stairs, Gu Zhan looked back at the closed door before turning and leaving.

At the Agricultural Technology Center, Li Yuquan frowned as he looked at the translation manuscripts that had been handed in at the office. These two people hadn't even finished translating a single book in over a month, and the manuscripts barely made sense, let alone the coherence and accuracy.

The manuscripts translated by these two people are not even close to the one translated by Gu Zhan, and that is simply the starting line and the finish line.

Li Yuquan sighed and threw the translation manuscript in front of him aside, thinking that out of sight, out of mind.

I started to miss Gu Zhan. I wondered when this guy would be able to bring the manuscript over. Director Liu had mentioned this several times.

He was hesitating whether to call Shanghe Village to ask Gu Zhan, when he saw Gu Zhan walking into his sight carrying a bag.

Li Yuquan's eyes lit up. After not seeing him for a month, this boy's temperament was even stronger than before. Wearing this navy blue suit, he looked even more handsome than a college graduate from the capital.

With a sigh of appreciation in his heart, he quickly stood up and walked out of the office to greet the person.

"Xiao Gu! I finally got you here."

Gu Zhan smiled awkwardly. He was indeed a little embarrassed. He had wasted a lot of time making penicillin in the county before, and then a lot of miscellaneous things piled up, which really delayed Li Yuquan's affairs.

Seeing Li Yuquan so enthusiastic, Gu Zhan felt embarrassed. He responded apologetically: "Hello, Director Li, I'm really sorry. I've been busy recently. I'm really sorry."

After a few pleasantries, Li Yuquan brought Gu Zhan into the office.

"Xiao Gu, drink some water."

Li Yuquan personally poured a cup of tea in front of Gu Zhan, and handed the draft translated by the two people to Gu Zhan.

"Xiao Gu, can you please take a look at these translations? How's the quality?"
