Xia Enru performed a medley of songs and dances, including "Driving Test Part 3," "Big Pixiu," "Love Like Fire," "Courage Explosion," "Garden Planting," "Dinosaur Fighting Wolves," "Little Bear Dance," and "Ace of Spades."
Gu Shaoxuan frowned as he watched. How could people from the future dance like this? It was simply... awful!
"So, is this what TikTok likes?"
Xia Enruo jumped up and down, breathless, and rushed to Gu Shaoxuan's side to ask.
"It's...it looks awful..."
"What did you say, Gu Shaoxuan? You actually said I sing and dance badly? You're tone-deaf..."
Upon hearing Gu Shaoxuan's reply, Xia Enruo grabbed his cheeks with both hands and playfully hit him.
"Honey, you are beautiful, but I really can't accept this performance style. What is this dance? I don't understand it!"
"Maybe you just don't get the feeling. It's not interesting to just watch me dance. I just want to tell you that this is all there is on TikTok!"
Gu Shaoxuan grabbed Xia Enruo's hand and kissed it.
"That's no fun, I'd rather watch my wife."
Xia Enruo began to take the lunch she had brought out of the basket little by little. After walking around all morning, she was actually quite hungry.
While she was setting out the food, Gu Shaoxuan got up and walked up the mountain path.
He walked halfway up the mountain, picked a few flowers to make a wreath, and then picked a bunch of flowers and came back.
"Here you go, honey. Smell it, does it smell good?"
"Oh, it's fresh flowers! They smell so good."
Gu Shaoxuan placed the flower wreath on her head and let her nestle in his arms.
"If only there were a camera to capture us both in a picture, I would definitely buy one when I earn more money, so I can get our photos printed."
How happy I would be to take this out and look at it when my hair is all white.
Xia Enruo, holding flowers, struck various poses in Gu Shaoxuan's arms.
"Shoot it like this, shoot it like this, and shoot it like this again."
Passersby occasionally glanced at the handsome young couple and felt a pang of envy.
"Young people are so romantic, they even come up with new ways to eat."
"Mainly because they're good-looking!"
"The times are getting better and better, and life is getting better and better."
Ge Qiuqin led her child to the Little Lei Feng Nursery, and sure enough, Qin Gang was right; the environment had indeed been upgraded.
The teachers are all young, unlike the previous two kindergartens where they were all older women.
"Comrade, you can rest assured to entrust your child to us. Our kindergarten is one of the best in Yongning City. Our boss is from the provincial capital and opened a branch here."
He specifically brought back the most advanced parenting methods from Guangzhou, which I heard originated from abroad. He's confident they'll raise your child well.
These days, anything associated with foreign countries is considered high-class or sophisticated, mainly because current material standards cannot meet people's growing needs.
When it comes to foreign goods, people are both curious and think they are incredibly good.
"What about tuition? How much is it per month?"
"It costs 30 yuan a month for each child, including lunch and afternoon nap. You can drop them off in the morning and pick them up in the evening, which saves you time and effort."
The nursery director noticed that Ge Qiuqin was dressed in an extraordinary manner; her wool coat alone was clearly an expensive item.
No target customer will be overlooked, regardless of the era.
These days, public daycare centers are scarce, and many children don't go to daycare centers; they go directly to primary school when they reach the appropriate age.
Ge Qiuqin was simply too busy to take care of her third and fourth children, and besides, she always felt that learning something at school would be useful.
30 yuan per child isn't expensive. I can earn several dozen yuan a day now, so I can afford it!
"Okay, I'll deliver it next month. It hasn't been moved over yet, it's a bit far."
"No problem, comrade. Come with me and complete the enrollment procedures first."
The principal of the private kindergarten will not let this opportunity pass by. She wants to keep the customer first, in case they leave and then change their minds.
This is completely different from state-owned enterprises. It doesn't matter whether I have children or not, I'll still get paid, and I don't care if I come or not!
Having spent half a year in the business world, Ge Qiuqin had long seen through the principal's tricks.
But since we've decided to do it here, it doesn't matter whether we do it sooner or later.
After completing the enrollment procedures, she led her two children back home.
Because her youngest daughter was clamoring for ice cream, she had to return to Central Street, where the ice cream stalls were the most numerous.
"Mom! It's Dad!"
The youngest son, with his sharp eyes, recognized his father from afar and pointed at him, then looked up at his mother and said...
Ge Qiuqin was taking out money to pay the stall owner when she heard her youngest son say this, and she turned her head to look ahead.
"Chen Yan!!!!"
She couldn't believe what she was seeing as Zhang Xin helped Chen Yan out of the department store.
Their intimate gestures were heartbreaking to watch, just like those of a newlywed couple.
Ge Qiuqin hurriedly covered the eyes of the two children, afraid that they would see this dirty scene.
Her heart felt as if it had been slashed open with a knife; the pain was excruciating.
Her husband wasn't coming home; he was having an affair with another woman, a woman who had come into her house with her mother-in-law.
I had endured so much suffering and beatings for the sake of my family, but it was all for nothing.
No wonder Xia told me not to be nice to Chen Yan; she must have known all along!
Ge Qiuqin was so angry that she felt dizzy. She suppressed her anger and grief, and her hand trembled as she took out the money.
She gritted her teeth; she could no longer continue living in this state of uncertainty.
At this moment, Zhang Xin, we have absolutely no feelings left for each other.
She led her two children, following the two men at a distance, her mind replaying the scenes of being bullied after marrying into the Zhang family.
She was slapped, kicked, hit with a rolling pin, pushed down by her sister-in-law, verbally abused by her mother-in-law, and humiliated by her entire family, including her own parents...
These scenes transformed into tears in my eyes, which involuntarily streamed down my cheeks.
Ge Qiuqin, you lived the first half of your life for your family but suffered betrayal and humiliation from them. In the second half of your life, you only live for yourself!
She silently repeated it to herself, step by step.
Suddenly a gust of wind blew in her face, lifting her curly hair. Her tears finally dried, and all that was left was courage!
...
After Xia Enruo and Gu Shaoxuan finished their picnic, they packed up and headed to the movie theater.
I heard today that the movie "Romance on Lushan Mountain" is being shown, which has caused quite a stir recently.
Young people on the streets were talking about it, and even students dining in the restaurant were discussing the plot.
Xia Enruo had never seen this movie in her previous life, and she was overjoyed when she heard that Gu Shaoxuan was taking her there.
This was the first time Gu Shaoxuan had taken a girl to the movies, and it was his beloved girl at that.
He was caught up with the times; he used to watch open-air movies in the army, and they were all war films.
This is his first time making a romance film!
