The next day.
Su Ying left the space, holding Xiao Bao in her arms. She calculated that Xiao Bao should be awake by now, and just as she was wondering what to do, a pair of hands reached out to her.
Su Ying was slightly taken aback. The moment she looked up, she met a pair of familiar eyes and exclaimed in shock.
What are you doing here?
The man didn't seem to care. "Didn't you tell me to come pick you up today?"
"But we agreed to meet around dusk, right? It's only six in the morning now, so you rushed over last night?"
Gu Sinian nodded, "That's right. Anyway, we're coming to pick you up today, and we'll leave tonight, so we can come pick you and your daughter up earlier."
"Are you out of your mind? You're not sleeping when you should be. Driving while fatigued can easily cause accidents."
Gu Sinian looked helpless and didn't know how to explain to Su Ying that it was normal for soldiers to go without sleep for days and nights, and that going without sleep for just one night wasn't that serious.
After all, he's only twenty-six years old and in excellent physical condition. It's just one night without sleep; it's no big deal.
"It's nothing. I was just worried about you. The agreed time hadn't arrived yet, and you and your daughter left Qingshuihe without permission. Tell me quickly what happened."
Su Ying poured out everything that had happened over the past month, her words filled with grievance.
Gu Sinian was furious; he really wanted to go to the Qingshui River and teach that heartless couple a lesson.
“They are so ungrateful. In order to develop a pill suitable for Liu Qinghe, you used the most precious medicinal materials in your space. Those medicinal materials are priceless.”
Su Ying had no regrets; it was simply a matter of repaying kindness with kindness.
“They saved our Le Tong and raised her for three years, but they also mistreated her. What I’m doing is just exchanging one child for another. It’s fine that we’re even.”
"They asked for an exorbitant amount of money, but I didn't give them a single penny, so don't be angry."
Gu Sinian sighed, wondering if he should tell his wife that her attempt to run away was completely futile.
A month ago, the battalion commander had already informed them of their assigned disaster relief mission. They knew which station they were serving in.
I escaped in vain.
Given Liu Dashan and Liu Qinghe's character, they'll definitely find them...
He rubbed his temples, feeling utterly exhausted. He had initially thought they were a family worth associating with, but now it seemed that was all wishful thinking on his part.
How heartbroken the child must be to hear those words from the parents who raised him.
How could that bastard say such a thing? He's utterly inhuman.
With him around, I will love Xiaobao, his daughter, even more.
With so many people in the family, how could Xiao Bao be afraid of not being loved?
It's just the love of a pair of hypocritical parents; if you don't want it, then don't want it.
The battalion commander knows where he is serving, so he shouldn't tell his wife, lest she be upset again.
After all, you escaped for a whole night, only to find yourself empty-handed. Who wouldn't feel good about that?
"I'm not angry. As long as you're not angry, I won't be angry. My emotions come from you."
Su Ying couldn't resist and was completely taken aback by Gu Sinian's flirting. Was this still the same tough guy Gu Sinian?
It's completely changed.
"Where did you go for your studies? You've got a whole repertoire of sweet nothings!"
“I enrolled in a continuing education course at my father-in-law’s place. You know how difficult your mother is, so I naturally learned a lot from listening to her a lot.”
All right.
Su Ying firmly believed this.
After all, her mother is really difficult to deal with.
She couldn't stand it anymore; those capitalists hadn't changed their bad habits at all, and only her father could tolerate it.
"Let's go back first."
Gu Sinian stopped moving and looked at Su Ying, saying, "If I hadn't come here early and been squatting here, how would you have spent the morning and afternoon?"
Su Ying licked her lips. "My plan for today is to take Xiao Bao around and let him broaden his horizons. After all, he has lived in Qinghe Village since he was a child and has only been out of the house once since he was three years old."
"During the month I spent with her, I didn't recognize most of the things in the city, only the crops in the fields and the gossip in the village."
"My child has never been to a department store, and has only been to a supply and marketing cooperative once."
Gu Sinian frowned and asked the question that had been bothering him, "How do these mountain people manage their daily necessities, and what about fabric?"
"The brigade leader is in charge of purchasing. He comes to the supply and marketing cooperative once a month to buy everything the villagers want and bring it back."
Gu Sinian's lips twitched. No wonder Xiao Bao didn't recognize anything. Wasn't this a perfectly normal thing?
The child will gradually adapt after returning home.
Children are sometimes more adaptable than adults.
"Then let's stick to your original plan and take the kids sightseeing, and go back tomorrow."
Su Ying asked with concern, "Aren't you very busy lately?"
"I may be busy, but I still need to make time to spend with my wife and kids."
"Our daughter has been found again, and I am overjoyed. I just want to bring all the good things in the world to her, as long as she is happy."
"Okay. I'd like to take the kids to the department store and buy them some clothes so they'll have something to change into when we get home."
"good."
As long as Gu Sinian is okay, she'll be even less of a problem.
She didn't take any of the child's luggage, and the clothes Xiaobao was wearing were the two sets of clothes that she had asked the brigade leader to buy when she came to Qingshuihe.
After Xiaobao returned home, there were many things that needed to be bought, and now that we had time, we decided to buy them all at once.
Anyway, she has space, so she can fit more in.
As long as there's something on the surface that she can bring home, she'll have a reason to take things out of her spatial storage for Xiaobao to use.
"Let's go then."
Su Ying instinctively reached out to hold Gu Sinian's hand, but only after reaching out did she remember what was going on.
He was holding Xiaobao in his arms, but he didn't have a free hand to hold hers. Although she was a little disappointed, she was still very happy.
Now their family of four is complete.
very nice.
I felt really happy.
The situation on Gu Sinian's side is a bit complicated. Xiao Bao is sleeping too soundly. They have been talking for so long, but the child still shows no signs of waking up.
This terrified Gu Sinian.
"Is the child sick? Why isn't he moving at all?"
Su Ying slapped her forehead, realizing she had forgotten to release Xiao Bao's sleeping pressure point. Normally, Xiao Bao would need to sleep for another two hours before waking up.
"I forgot to release the child's sleeping acupoints."
Gu Sinian frowned. "Why are you putting pressure on the child's acupoints to make him sleep?"
"I was just trying to prevent my space from being exposed. I ran all night last night and arrived in the county town close to midnight."
"That's true. So what do we do now?"
"What else can we do? We've released the child's sleeping pressure points. Hold him for a bit."
"good."
Su Ying took out a silver needle from her spatial storage and inserted it into an acupoint. Xiao Bao's eyelids immediately twitched, and he slowly opened his eyes.
