Su Jinru was dragged by Liu Yi to go shopping.

She said she was going shopping, but actually she wanted to talk about the marriage of Anxin and Xingguo's two children.

Liu Yi: "Aru, look, both of your children have graduated from university and are not young anymore, they are both twenty-six years old. Other children their age can already walk. Shouldn't we set a wedding date for them?"

Su Jinru said, "Sister-in-law, I also want the two children to get married as soon as possible, but Anxin has just graduated and went to work as a radio host. The work pressure is quite high. Give her some time to adapt to this job."

"An Xin's voice is really nice. Ever since An Xin started hosting that program, I listen to it every day."

"Yes! The number of listeners for that program is increasing, which puts even more pressure on An Xin."

Liu Yi: "If An Xin had chosen to stay at Peking University as a teacher like Xing Guo when she graduated, she wouldn't have felt so much pressure."

Su Jinru: "But An Xin just likes doing broadcasting and hosting. She does what she likes and loves. Work is not just work, which is great."

“An Xin is capable and talented, and she likes to do creative and challenging work. She has a lot of room for future development. Xing Guo, on the other hand, is only content to be a university history teacher. I am worried that the gap between the two of them will widen in the future, which may affect their relationship.”

Su Jinru: "Don't worry, sister-in-law. If two people truly have feelings for each other, these external conditions won't affect their relationship. Just look at me and A-Jie. From a worldly perspective, I'm a divorced woman with a child, and I've never been to school. Compared to A-Jie, who went to military academy and is a commander with numerous military achievements, isn't there a huge gap between us? But these gaps don't affect our relationship!"

"Moreover, he's a teacher at a prestigious university in Xingguo, a typical intellectual. He's already quite good, surpassing 99% of people!"

Su Jinru's words made Liu Yi smile broadly.

"You can still talk."

Su Jinru continued, "An Xin is reluctant to get married because she wants A-Jie to attend their wedding."

“Ah Jie has been gone for more than three years and hasn’t come back. They went to the battlefield; they can’t just come back whenever they want.”

"Yes! That's what I told her too, but Anxin has a very deep affection for her father. From childhood to adulthood, her father has loved Anxin more than he has loved Anran."

“An Xin is a very loyal and affectionate person, but who knows when the war will end? Does that mean they won’t get married if it doesn’t end in eight or ten years?”

"Yes! That's what I said too, Second Sister-in-law. Don't worry, if A-Jie calls again, I'll ask him to persuade An-Xin. An-Xin may not listen to what I say, but she won't disobey what her father says."

"Yes, yes, let Ah Jie talk to her. Ah Jie just wants her to get married soon! But how often does Ah Jie call back?"

"That's hard to say. At most, it might be once a month, or sometimes even once every two months."

Liu Yi took a breath.

“If we marry a soldier, we have to suffer this. We have to shoulder everything at home and outside. We can’t say anything or complain about our worries and fears. Luckily, I have a son, Xingguo, who didn’t join the army, otherwise I would be worrying about him endlessly.”

Su Jinru: "Yes! He's been gone for more than three years and hasn't come back even once. We at home have no idea what's going on with him. Our only hope is that he can call back and let us know he's safe."

“I understand, I understand. Your son A-Jie went to the front line. Although An Ran is not in mortal danger, because of the nature of his work, he doesn’t receive a phone call for a year or two. My family is similar. The father and son often don’t hear from each other for a long time. We can only say that they went on a mission, and we can’t ask about anything else.”

"But isn't our peaceful and stable life something they bought with their money?"

"yes……"

……

Su Jinru returned home carrying the things she bought while shopping.

As soon as Su Jinru entered, she heard Luo Xingguo telling a story.

On the sofa in the living room, Luo Xingguo held Guoguo in his arms, while Ruochen and Ruoxi sat around him.

One person was speaking animatedly, while the others listened attentively.

Even Guoguo, who was just over two years old, was listening intently with curious eyes in Luo Xingguo's arms.

The stories Luo Xingguo tells are all based on real historical figures.

Since Luo Xingguo and An Xin got engaged, Luo Xingguo would go to Su Jinru's house whenever he had free time, and even stay there. Su Jinru cleaned up a room next to An Ran's room for him to live in, and Luo Xingguo even regarded it as his own home. Since the school was not far from here, he would come here to stay every night after dinner.

After graduating and starting work, An Xin no longer lived at school and came back every night. Sometimes when she worked overtime at night, Luo Xingguo would go and keep her company while she worked overtime, and then pick her up and bring her back.

Sometimes when Luo Xingguo didn't have classes, he would arrive at Su Jinru's house early to help tutor the two children.

After Ruochen and Ruoxi finished their homework each day, Luo Xingguo would tell them stories, stories of historical figures.

Not only were the children captivated by Luo Xingguo's vivid and engaging stories, but Su Jinru was also often drawn to them.

Ruochen and Ruoxi are now in junior high school and have started studying history.

However, the history in their textbooks was just a simple introduction, which was dry and boring. But after Luo Xingguo told the stories, these historical events became vivid and concrete.

Both children have developed a love for history.

Luo Xingguo not only made history lessons more vivid and interesting by using time, stories, and characters, but he also boosted geography lessons.

Luo Xingguo bought a globe and used it to tell the children about historical events, pointing out where each event took place on the globe.

Every time Luo Xingguo tells stories to the children, Su Jinru listens with great interest.

Those historical stories, historical figures, there were wise and enlightened rulers, there were foolish and incompetent rulers who brought about the downfall of their kingdoms, there were loyal and unwavering heroes, there were treacherous officials, there were traitors, and there were countless think tanks...

In short, the children listened with varying degrees of righteous indignation, passion, heartbreak, and jubilation...

Although Su Jinru didn't understand education, after listening to Luo Xingguo tell historical stories, she felt that this was the best kind of education.

These historical events and figures can help children distinguish right from wrong, instill a sense of national pride, and teach them the wisdom and lessons of the ancients.

Because history encompasses everything, including politics, economics, customs, and the culture of different eras, reading and understanding history can provide a wealth of knowledge.
