The Empress Dowager in the 70s

The Empress Dowager, doted on by her father and mother, suddenly transmigrated to the 1970s.

Confused, she was tricked by her unscrupulous elder sister and younger brother into becoming a sen...

Chapter 167

Bai Ruozhen noticed Gu Xiaoli's hesitation and quickly said, "Since our two schools are close, we can see each other often. We can rent a house in Beijing and spend weekends together. It will be here soon. In our sophomore year, we won't live on campus anymore. We can both go home and see each other every day."

"That's fine." Although Gu Xiaoli was reluctant to let Bai Ruozhen go, she also understood that Bai Ruozhen was indeed more suitable to go to Peking University than to Huaqing University, and Bai Ruozhen would not be lonely with her fifth brother by his side.

Of course, she wanted to go to Huaqing not only because she liked the school, but more importantly because of Li Xiuming.

"So what major are you planning to apply for?" Aunt Gu was delighted to see that she really wanted to be a teacher, and she quickly offered some advice. "You're not bad at history, why don't you study history?"

Bai Ruozhen's eyes lit up. That's fine. In her previous life, she was born into a wealthy family. Although she couldn't be said to be proficient in some historical relics, she had some eye for them. If she studied them systematically, maybe she could do it.

"Well, then let's apply for the history major." Bai Ruozhen made the decision happily.

As for Gu Changqing, he didn't expect his wife to really apply for the same major as him, so he just let her follow her interests.

After deciding on their major, the three of them went to register. There were a lot of people applying at the registration office. Although the scores had not been released yet, everyone was full of anticipation.

After filling in the volunteer application, Yancheng was hit by another snowstorm. The whole city was covered with heavy snow. It was freezing cold outside and Bai Ruozhen was so afraid of the cold that she didn't even want to get out of bed. If the two little bastards hadn't come to harass her in the morning, she would have wanted to lie down on the kang and not get up.

The days passed quickly, and it was already the twelfth lunar month. The notice had not come yet, and the family had nothing to do in Yancheng, so they returned to Xiahe Village together.

The road was difficult to travel on, and the buses had stopped running long ago. Gu Changqing got a cart and let the whole family sit on it, while he pulled the cart forward. Bai Ruozhen felt sorry for him and wanted to get off to help, but was stopped by Gu Changqing, "No, I can pull it, and it's warm this way."

We stopped and walked along the way until noon when we arrived at Xiahe Village. In winter, there were no fishing boats out to sea and no one was walking around in the village, so the sound of the waves was particularly clear.

Bai Ruozhen glanced at the sea in the distance, but in his heart he was reminiscing about his life in Yancheng over the past few years.

This would be her hometown from now on. To her, the provincial capital seemed to be just her mother's home.

When they arrived at Xiahe Village, Bai Ruozhen was completely paralyzed on the kang and couldn't move. However, Jiaozi and Doubao were different. They were so energetic that it was scary. It was thanks to the brothers Gu Changqing and Gu Zhiguo who were watching over them, otherwise they really couldn't bear to see the two boys.

After staying in Xiahe Village for a few days, Qiu Lanying packed up a bunch of things and said to Bai Ruozhen and Gu Changqing, "Let's go back to the provincial capital to see our parents before the notice comes."

Bai Ruozhen thought that it had been a long time since he was home, so he went to look after Changqing.

Gu Changqing smiled and said, "Look at what I'm doing. I'm going to the provincial capital."

His voice tightened as he spoke, "I just happened to have a batch of goods to sell."

Bai Ruozhen suddenly realized that her man was quite impressive. He not only owned a supermarket but was also very good at making money. Gu Changqing had barely left the house in the past two years, yet he had been bringing home a lot of money. Bai Ruozhen didn't know how he made his money, but she figured that as long as he hadn't done anything illegal, she didn't want to ask.

Moreover, since she had two sons, Gu Changqing's supermarket has brought great benefits to her family. It is extremely convenient to buy food, clothing and other daily necessities.

What's more, supermarkets always launch some big gift packages during the Spring Festival every year. The consumption level in Yancheng is low, so it is perfect to sell them in the provincial capital.

The couple's abacus was clacking, and they looked at each other tacitly, as if they both saw the smell of money.

The family left without even making a phone call and just carried their two sons to take the train.

Gu Changqing was worried about the difficulty in carrying things, so he bought a small two-wheeled cart from the supermarket, which made Qiu Lanying very envious. Bai Ruozhen said, "I'll give you this cart when you get back."

Qiu Lanying suddenly became happy.

All the things for the Bai family were placed on the cart. Gu Changqing bought a rope from the supermarket and tied the two sons to their belts like grasshoppers.

Bai Ruozhen didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "If you didn't know, you would think it was human trafficking."

Gu Changqing said dissatisfiedly, "Is there anyone who looks this similar?"

Bai Ruozhen laughed. Of course not. Jiaozi looks like her, Doubao looks like Gu Changqing. When the family walks out, you can tell they are a family.

"Okay, let your dad take you to the car." Qiu Lanying untied the rope, "Tie it up again when you get in the car, it's safer."

The couple took the bus to Yancheng with their child, bought tickets to the provincial capital that night and did not go back. They waited at the station for more than two hours. Gu Zhiguo stayed with them until they got on the bus before going back.

Before getting on the train, Gu Changqing tied his two sons' belts with ropes and did not untie them until they got on their berths.

Jiaozi and Doubao had taken the train last year, but they had long forgotten about it. Now they were two years old, and everything they saw was new to them, looking around curiously in the carriage. Gu Changqing dragged them to their huddled bunks, made them sit down, and retied the ropes for the two children. Then he handed the rope to Bai Ruozhen, "Hold them tight, I'll get some hot water."

Bai Ruozhen couldn't help laughing as he looked at the rope in his hand, "Okay."

Gu Changqing went out to fetch water. Bai Ruozhen pulled the rope to pull the two curious boys back, "Behave."

Jiaozi turned around and looked at her, "Mom, what's that over there?"

Bai Ruozhen glanced at it and said, "Nothing, he's also taking the same bus as us."

"Oh." Jiaozi lost interest after looking at it once, so he went back to sit next to Bai Ruozhen. Doubao was so energetic that if Bai Ruozhen hadn't held him tightly, he could have been dragged away by him.
