During the time that Gu Zhenqi stayed at her mother's house, she cooked different delicious meals for her family every day, and everyone became plumper at a visible speed.

The night before she was leaving for her husband's home, Gu Zhenqi crawled into her mother's bed like she did when she was a child.

As before, her mother gently stroked her hair with her slightly rough hands, and her tone was especially gentle.

Gu Zhenqi used to find her mother's repetitive words annoying.

Now that time has passed and my mood has changed, listening again, every word and every sentence is a mother's loving advice to her child!

"Now that you've made the decision, go back to your husband's house and live a peaceful and stable life. A woman's life is to live around her husband when she has no children, and to live around her children when she has children!"

"Don't listen to the gossips of others. They are just idle and have nothing to do. It's pure nonsense. Just take good care of Ruiduo and Fei'an, these two children!"

"As a man, if you are destined to meet someone like this, don't complain or think about it! Live a good life with your children. You always have to have something to look forward to. If one day you have other ideas, remember that your family supports you!"

"Oh, my girl! Don't let yourself get hurt. Bring your child back. Your parents will support you and your child for the rest of your life!"

My father, who I thought was asleep, suddenly interrupted.

Mom smiled and turned around to hit him lightly, saying, "Hey, you old man, you're still pretending to be asleep, you!"

Dad pulled his quilt shamelessly and said with a smile: "She was asleep. She was asleep. She was not worried that our daughter would be wronged, so she suddenly woke up to give her a warning!"

Gu Zhenqi was so moved that she smiled. Her mother did not expose her father, but just smiled and said, "Oh, so you care about your daughter. She is alert when she sleeps, right?"

"Of course, I have to pay attention to my daughter. Besides, when am I not alert when I sleep?"

"Really? Then the last time..."

"Huff...Huff..." Dad Gu Jianguo interrupted Mom from continuing to speak with his snoring.

Gu Zhenqi asked curiously: "Mom, what happened last time?"

Mother Qu Ru was instantly excited by the question and leaned closer to Gu Zhenqi: "Let me tell you, last time your father..."

"I'm asleep, you two can chat slowly!"

Gu Jianguo didn't want his daughter to know about his shameful deeds, so he interrupted again.

"Mom, let's talk about other things and let Dad go for now!"

Gu Zhenqi smiled and spoke to Qu Ru in a voice that only the two of them could hear.

Qu Ru smiled and nodded.

"Zhenqi, when are you going back tomorrow morning? Let your third brother take you back. When you leave, take anything your in-laws need!"

"There has to be a give and take, you can't take something from your in-laws and go back empty-handed, right?"

"No need. Third Brother can earn ten work points a day. I can take the two kids for a stroll and then go back!"

"Really?"

Qu Ru was still worried about Gu Zhenqi going back alone, especially with her belongings and two young children.

"Really, no need, I can do it!"

Gu Zhenqi insisted.

You know your own child well! Qu Ru knew that Gu Zhenqi had a temper like a stubborn donkey. Once he made a decision, no matter what anyone said, it would be useless!

"I'll listen to you. Mom tells you..."

The mother and daughter forgot about time while chatting. When they looked up again, it was already dawn outside the window.

Qu Ru said with some self-blame: "Look, I've been chatting without a time limit. Zhenqi, hurry up and take some more sleep. I'll get up and make breakfast for you!"

As he said this, he got up from the kang and prepared breakfast.

Gu Zhenqi quickly pulled her back: "Mom, you can rest assured and sleep for a while. I'll go prepare breakfast. You have a whole day to work. I have nothing to do when I go back to my husband's house, so I can catch up on some sleep. Besides, it's okay for us young people to not sleep for a day or two, right?"

"Let me go. You take some sleep. Otherwise, your body won't be able to handle it."

In a mother’s heart, her children always come first, and her own situation is always secondary!

Gu Zhenqi's eyes suddenly turned red, and she turned around and hugged him: "Mom, I love you. I'll cook the meal. Don't worry, it's okay. I'll come back to see you often. You and Dad must take care of your health!"

People of this generation are very reserved in expressing their emotions, no matter what kind of relationship they are in!

If Gu Zhenqi had not lived an extra lifetime and experienced an era where love had to be expressed immediately, she would definitely not have blurted out the three words "I love you" today.

This really brought a great shock to Qu Ru. On one hand, she felt a little embarrassed, but on the other hand, she felt very happy and wrapped in happiness.

She remained there with a smile on her lips until Gu Zhenqi left the house and went to the kitchen to cook.

…

After breakfast, Gu Zhenqi said goodbye to his family, stood at the gate of the yard, and watched them go to work.

Dad Gu Jianguo advised: "My daughter, don't let yourself be wronged. If you feel wronged, come back to your mother's house!"

The eldest brother Gu Dazhu said: "Sister, if you don't want to continue living like this, I will take you home!"

Sister-in-law Wu Xiuxiu said: "When those people say unpleasant things, it's bullshit!"

The second brother Gu Erzhu said: "If you have any problems, remember to find me!"

Second sister-in-law Lu Jia said: "We can't live like this anymore, let's go back to our parents' home!"

The third brother Gu Sanzhu said: "Sister, if anyone bullies you, tell me and I will help you beat him up. If it's my opinion, you should not go back and stay here as a family!"

He Shu reluctantly held Gu Zhenqi's arm, her eyes red and her voice choked: "Zhenqi, can you not go back?"

"You've only been back for a few days. I can't bear to leave you. Why don't you listen to your third brother and don't go back? If you go back, you'll have to wait endlessly. I don't know when Chen Kuo will come back."

"Don't cry, you're useless!"

Gu Zhenqi pulled He Shu aside and whispered, "I gave you a lot of delicious food in your room. Remember to hide some. If you finish eating and I'm not back, go to Chen's house to find me!"

Hearing about the delicious food, He Shu's eyes lit up, and she quickly asked in confusion: "Where did you get the delicious food? You obviously didn't go out?"

Gu Zhenqi looked at her seriously: "Don't ask if you want to eat. I will ensure that you will be supplied continuously in the future. Otherwise... Also, after I leave, if anyone in my family is curious about the extra things in your room, remember to help me explain them and make it go away!"

He Shu's biggest hobby is eating, but the scarcity of materials in those days deprived her of her hobby. Gu Zhenqi had such conditions, so naturally he wanted to satisfy her.

In fact, I am still very restricted. After all, the existence of the space cannot be known to my family.

The man is innocent unless he is in possession of a treasure! She was not worried about her family, but she was afraid that outsiders would find out and bring disaster to her family!

She cannot expose her space. She wants to be good to her family and give them the best, but she will be subject to some restrictions and can only leave as much as possible for them.

This is hard to explain, and I have to thank He Shu for her hard work!

"Okay, don't worry, leave it to me. It's just... you have to take care of yourself. Do you really want to live with Chen Kuo?"

"Don't worry, I will take good care of myself! I've decided. I'm waiting for you. Go to work quickly. Come get it from me after you finish eating!"

He Shu walked to the door and looked back at her reluctantly and worriedly.

Gu Zhenqi waved at her: "I'll be fine, go!"

After seeing her family off, Gu Zhenqi finally breathed a sigh of relief. Next, she needed to do what she had to do!
