"Sister-in-law, you don't know--" Gu Baiting sat on the edge of the bed, holding a fried dough stick in his mouth.
Gu Xiaobao shook his head and asked, "Uncle, what do you not know?"
Gu Baiting thought about it and kept it a secret. He raised his lips but still didn't say anything. He raised his finger and flicked Gu Xiaobao's forehead, "It's better for children not to know about adult matters."
Seeing Gu Baiting's strange look, Su Nianmei shook the cup in her hand and the water spilled out.
"Brother, sister-in-law, I remembered that I have something else to do. You guys can chat first. I'll take Xiaobao away, so you don't have to worry about him."
Gu Baiting stood up and was about to leave, taking Gu Xiaobao with him.
Gu Xiaobao stretched his hands, unhappy. He had just seen his mother for a few minutes and was being taken away by his uncle again.
Gu Baiting leaned over to Gu Xiaobao's ear and coaxed him, saying, "Xiaobao, do you want a sister?" Gu Xiaobao's hand froze just as he was about to shake it off. Seeing that there was a chance, Gu Baiting continued to persuade him, "Only if you follow your uncle can you have a sister."
Gu Xiaobao was stunned, and he dragged Gu Baiting out. When he passed by his father, he didn't even raise his eyelids or look at him.
After Su Nianmei came back from the bathroom, she was moved to a new ward with two beds, but for some reason she was the only one living there.
Gu Xichao raised the iron box in his hand, opened the lid, and sat on the chair that Gu Baiting had just sat on. It was still quite warm. "I just went to the cafeteria to heat up some porridge for you. You just got injured, so you need to drink something light."
There were two knocks on the ward door, and a young nurse came in with a medicine box and said softly, "Mr. Gu, it's time to change your dressing."
Gu Xichao picked up the spoon, scooped a spoonful of millet porridge, blew it on his lips, and said, "Sorry for bothering you, leave it here first, I'll change it myself later."
Su Nianmei stopped the nurse and asked, "Hello, can you tell me where my husband is injured?"
The young nurse paused, looked at Gu Xichao and then continued: "Don't worry too much, they are just superficial injuries. Just change the dressing on time and don't let the wound get inflamed and everything will be fine." After that, the young nurse left.
Gu Xichao stopped delivering the porridge and lowered his eyes. "It's okay."
Su Nianmei glared at him, "What do you mean it's okay? Being injured is okay, and getting an inflamed wound is okay." Su Nianmei became angrier and angrier, and simply shouted, "Do you think it's okay even if you die?"
Gu Xichao was stunned as he watched Su Nianmei's little mouth opening and closing.
As Su Nianmei was speaking, Gu Xichao suddenly rushed over, held her head with his big hands, stroked her hair with his fingers, and sealed the moment with a kiss.
"Good boy." he said.
He had wanted to do this for a long time.
The tips of their tongues touched each other, and their breaths intertwined.
Gu Xichao's hands were shaking as he held Su Nianmei. No one knew how scared he was when he saw the note, and no one knew how panicked he was when he was rushing on the road.
Fortunately, something went wrong and the earthquake was not felt strongly.
After this incident, he finally figured it out. No matter who she is, she is Su Nianmei, the sweet baby that Gu Xichao holds in his heart with his life.
"The porridge... the porridge is getting cold." Su Nianmei pushed Gu Xichao but didn't dare to use force.
Gu Xichao hugged Su Nianmei and licked the corner of his mouth with satisfaction. Then he picked up the bowl again and fed her one spoonful at a time.
After finishing the porridge, Gu Xichao pestered Su Nianmei, "Wife, I haven't changed the medicine yet."
Su Nianmei said sternly, "You deserve it! Who told you not to let the nurse change your dressing just now?"
Gu Xichao rubbed Su Nianmei's neck softly, "My dear, are you willing to let others see me?"
After saying that, Gu Xichao took off his shirt without saying a word, revealing his strong body.
Su Nianmei took a closer look and saw that they were indeed just superficial injuries, but he didn't look much better than her.
His whole body was covered with bruises, some parts of which were wrapped in gauze. Su Nianmei felt sad when she saw it.
"What's there to be reluctant about? You're not a popular person, and it's impossible for everyone to like you." Although she said so, Su Nianmei's hand was still a little lighter when applying the medicine.
Gu Xichao took a deep breath of cold air.
"Does it hurt?" Su Nianmei asked nervously immediately.
Gu Xichao chuckled twice, turned around and kissed her finger, "It doesn't hurt."
In the past few days, seeing that his elder brother and sister-in-law's relationship had visibly recovered, Gu Baiting breathed a sigh of relief. His elder brother was truly deeply in love with his sister-in-law. His brother had been a taciturn person since he was young. He kept everything in his heart and never showed his feelings. When he suddenly brought a large group of manpower and resources to Qing Province to find him a few days ago, his brother's face turned pale.
I don’t know if it was telepathy or foresight, but his sister-in-law happened to have an accident at that time. Fortunately, the earthquake was small and no one was hurt, otherwise Gu Baiting would have felt guilty for the rest of his life.
At the end of June, Su Nianmei's test results came out.
The school director personally delivered the results. The total score was 580, and Su Nianmei scored 521. Although she was not ranked in the top ten in the province, she was able to get into a good school.
After the results came out, there was everything else to do, including choosing a school and a major, but Su Nianmei was not too busy. On the day the results came out, Ji's uncle invited the most experienced teacher to help Su Nianmei analyze the results, which made Gao Qiu angry and glared at her. After a while of discussion, a few people finally finalized the matter.
There is no need to choose a school, it must be Peking University, but I spent a lot of time thinking about the major. Su Nianmei is a science student, but she has a romantic sentiment in her heart. She doesn't have to make money in this life and doesn't have to worry about food and drink. In the end, she applied for the Chinese major, one of the trump cards of Peking University. This can be regarded as the fulfillment of her dream in her previous life.
The old Su family was in an uproar when they received the news about Su Nianmei's grades, as if they were scalded by boiling water.
The only telephone number of the brigade was next door to the Su family. Old Man Su answered the phone and yelled across the wall, calling all the women, young and old, in his room to come over.
My little brother Su Huailin is studying in the county middle school. He hasn’t had his holiday yet and can only come back on weekends.
Old Man Su's hand holding the phone was shaking, his lips were quivering, he was so excited as if he had been given a shot of cardiotonic, he couldn't believe his ears.
He, their Su family is going to have a college student! And he is a college student from a prestigious university! This is a great happy event that has never happened in many years!
Lin Ai Qiu leaned over to Old Man Su's ear and listened for a long time. He could hear a score or something intermittently. He patted Old Man Su's shoulder and said, "Dad, how did our dead girl do in the exam?"
When Su Jianguo, Su's father, heard this, he frowned.
Su Jianguo also had thick eyebrows and big eyes when he was young. The children of the Su family all looked like their father Su, and they were all very good-looking. The name that she usually didn't find awkward to hear, but today, when Lin Aiqiu said it, it was particularly harsh. She frowned, glanced at her old partner, and the smile on her face froze. She said in a deep voice with full majesty:
"Ai Qiu, you should be more careful about what you say in front of the baby. Our Nianmei is the eldest daughter after all, so be careful with your words when you mention the baby in front of her brothers and sisters. The golden egg that our Su family has been waiting for for dozens of generations has finally been laid in my generation. After I, Su Jianguo, am 100 years old, I will be able to hold my head high when I meet my ancestors."
Lin Ai Qiu glared at Su Jianguo in a vicious tone, but the tone of her words changed: "Don't tell me, I don't believe that Xin Mei, a girl who has never been to school since childhood, can be admitted to a good school. Don't let yourself be fooled by others."
Su Sixia, Su Xiaomei, straightened her collar. She had been so busy running over that she didn't even notice her appearance. She held a small square mirror in her hand, looking back and forth, fiddling with her hair, and said, "Dad, that's right. Our teacher said that there are still some fake universities nowadays. If you are fooled by my sister, you will be embarrassed in the village."
Father Su said, "How is that possible? The person who reported the news was the director of some unknown middle school in Kyoto. What the director said must be true. Your sister was admitted to Peking University. The director said that it is a school that city kids can't get into even if they try their best. But our precious child got in."
Old Man Su had been a farmer all his life, and he had great respect for those who held official positions and were knowledgeable. So how could what the teachers at school said be wrong?
Seeing her old man's affirmative tone, Lin Ai Qiu's heart also brightened up. This girl Su Nianmei must have been admitted to school.
She glanced at Su Sixia again. As a mother, she always thought about her children. Her son Su Huailin was smart and would be admitted to university, so he would have no worries about his future. However, her youngest daughter Su Sixia's academic performance was unstable, fluctuating from time to time.
Otherwise, let Su Nianmei give up her admission qualification to Si Xia. Anyway, Su Nianmei is a good student and she was able to get into university even though she didn't study for more than ten years. If she gives up this opportunity, she can still do well next time. But it is different for Si Xia. With this good opportunity, she might meet a noble man in university, and her precious daughter may enjoy a happy life for the rest of her life.
The more Lin Ai Qiu thought about it, the more he felt that this method was feasible. I returned home happily, took out a few eggs that the hen had laid that morning, and made an egg cake to celebrate.
Everyone in the family had their own thoughts, but they were all secretly waiting to attend Su Nianmei's teacher farewell banquet.
Who would have thought that there would be no further news after the last phone call? When Lin Ai Qiu heard from Murakami's "Phone Number" Su Qian that several universities in the provincial capital were about to start school, she became so anxious that her mouth was covered with bubbles and she gasped when she spoke.
In mid-August, a telegram arrived inviting their family to Kyoto to attend a teacher appreciation banquet.
The farewell banquet for teachers was held in the largest restaurant in Kyoto and was organized by Gu Baiting.
The old man of the Su family took the train with the whole family to Kyoto. When he saw the three big gold-plated words "Hao Ke Lai" on the hotel, his throat started to boil.
I stepped into the hotel door nervously.
Younger Su Huailin was walking at the back, and when he saw the man in military uniform sitting in the chief seat, he pursed his lips slightly. He felt that the man looked somewhat familiar, but he just didn't know where he had seen him before.
Ji Yuan was drinking when he suddenly felt as if someone was staring at him. He raised his head but found nothing unusual.
