After a busy day, Sun Yuqi and Liu Jingjing left work together in the afternoon.
"Jingjing, you came to Beijing to work. How did you solve the housing problem?"
Liu Jingjing pushed her bicycle along the path. "Qi Aiguo has been transferred to No. 3 Middle School, so we were allocated a 50-square-meter apartment in the No. 3 Middle School staff compound. We didn't bring our child with us, so he lives with his grandparents in his hometown. The house is enough for him for now."
Hearing Liu Jingjing talking about her children, Sun Yuqi curiously asked, "How old are your children?"
When Liu Jingjing talked about her son, she sounded more like a mother, and the teacher's temperament was gone.
"Alas, he's already over three years old, and will be four in November. Aiguo and I have discussed taking him home when he's old enough to start primary school. To be honest, I've been missing him for just half a month, and I've become a bit like a child myself."
Sun Yuqi understood what Liu Jingjing said. She is a mother now and can see her child every day. Even so, sometimes she would think of her child from time to time while at work.
"Well, you've just been transferred here, so you must focus on your work. You should wait for two years! But don't we have two vacations a year? You can still go back to see the child then. Even if you bring the child here now, I'm afraid you two won't have time to take care of him!"
"Who said it wasn't? It was because of these things that I didn't bring the child here. Okay, let's not talk about me anymore. You are married, do you have children?"
Sun Yuqi smiled.
"I'm already 25. If I don't get married, I'll be chased and introduced to someone. My husband works at the Public Security Bureau. We had a son last year. He's over a year old now and will be two by the end of February next year."
Liu Jingjing suddenly thought of Sun Yuqi's boyfriend when she was sent to the countryside to work. After thinking about it, she decided not to ask. Chen Lixiang suddenly disappeared. It was said that he later sent a letter to Sun Yuqi. Although she didn't know what was in the letter, she guessed that it was definitely not a good thing, so Sun Yuqi never mentioned Chen Lixiang again over the years.
After the crowds thinned out, the two rode their bicycles forward. At the intersection ahead, they separated and went back home, but they also made an appointment that this weekend, Sun Yuqi would invite Liu Jingjing and her husband to her home for dinner.
When I got home, I saw Mu Jingran coming back from get off work.
"Oh my! A busy man would actually leave work so early!"
Mu Jingran heard Sun Yuqi's teasing and said with a wry smile, "Okay, wife, you know how busy I have been these past two years. I've been busy during this period, so there aren't too many things to do. I'll leave work early."
The couple pushed their bicycles into the yard. Mu Qingzhuo, who was playing with Grandpa Chen, heard the sound of the bicycle and turned around. When he saw that it was his parents, he immediately dropped the wooden shovel he was using to dig sand and ran towards Sun Yuqi.
Sun Yuqi parked her bike, picked up Mu Qingzhuo, kissed him on the forehead first, and then spoke softly to him.
After the family had dinner in the evening, they lay in bed. Sun Yuqi talked about Liu Jingjing and told Mu Jingran.
"I'm planning to invite Liu Jingjing and her husband to my house for dinner this weekend, which is Sunday, so that you and Qi Aiguo can get to know each other."
When Sun Yuqi said this, she suddenly remembered the scene when she first arrived in Zhengjiatun when she went to the countryside to work in the fields, and she couldn't help laughing for a moment.
Mu Jingran looked at Sun Yuqi strangely, then reached out and held her in his arms.
"Wife, what are you laughing at for no reason?"
Sun Yuqi smiled and said to Mu Jingran.
"I'm done, you can't be angry!"
Mu Jingran's heart suddenly skipped a beat, but he still looked indifferent.
"Okay, tell me. Your man's concentration and psychological resilience are quite good."
Sun Yuqi told her about the first day she met Qi Aiguo and how Qi Aiguo looked at her and Lu Yao in a daze.
The veins on Mu Jingran's forehead throbbed three times, but eventually calmed down. He looked at Sun Yuqi with a scoundrel look on his face and said, "Wife, do you feel good? You are beautiful and it's an honor for men to be in a daze for you."
Sun Yuqi didn't expect that Mu Jingran, who usually looked righteous, would reveal such a ruffian expression. She was stunned for a moment, but at this moment, Mu Jingran seized the opportunity and pressed her onto the bed.
The spring breeze filled the house all night. The next morning, Sun Yuqi almost got up late, but Comrade Mu Jingran had already disappeared. Sun Yuqi was so angry that she cursed under her breath.
"That damn pervert, I shouldn't have promised him so much. Now I'm almost late."
Sun Yuqi knew that Mu Jingran was called away by his colleagues from their unit last night, and she guessed that some case had occurred somewhere.
After getting up, washing and brushing her teeth, Sun Yuqi rushed to school without eating. As soon as she entered the office, the bell for class rang.
Liu Jingjing looked at Sun Yuqi, who seemed to have not rested well at night, so she walked to Sun Yuqi and said something softly.
"You must have been busy all night! But you have to take care of yourself!"
Sun Yuqi looked up at Liu Jingjing's face full of concern, but she must not ignore the teasing in her eyes. Sun Yuqi rolled her eyes.
"Alright, we all understand each other. Back when we were in the Youth League, the noise kept us awake that night..."
Before Sun Yuqi could finish her words, Liu Jingjing covered her mouth with her hand. When she looked at Liu Jingjing again, her face was already flushed.
Sun Yuqi snorted coldly: Little guy, I can’t deal with you, let’s just be at peace with each other!
Saturday soon arrived. When Sun Yuqi got off work in the afternoon, she agreed with Liu Jingjing that they should go to Grandpa Chen's house the next morning and had already told her the address.
When Sun Yuqi returned home in the evening, she told her grandfather that she would invite her sisters from her time as educated youth to dinner tomorrow, and Grandpa Chen was also very happy.
"Well, we should invite them to our home for a meal. After all, you've been in the Northeast for two years, so there must be some affection. Besides, they've traveled thousands of miles to Beijing, so we should show some hospitality."
"How about this, tomorrow morning you accompany me to the vegetable market, we'll buy some vegetables, and then grandpa will cook you a delicious meal, and you can have a good time together."
The next morning, Sun Yuqi got up and handed the child to Ye Mei. She rode her bicycle with Grandpa Chen to the vegetable market and bought a lot of vegetables.
When they returned home, Mu Jingran had already cleaned the house. Sun Yuqi went into the kitchen with Grandpa Chen and started to get busy.
