Chen Yan hugged her tightly with care and whispered softly.
"Everything will be fine."
Gu Keqing knew what was written in the book, that after Chen Yan made great contributions, his whole family followed him back to the capital.
The original owner died young, but since she came to this world, she would not let things develop in an uncontrollable direction.
The biggest troublemaker, the heroine Qi Zhilan, has now been dealt with.
Then the future will surely be bright.
"Wife...it's great to have you. Thank you for staying with me."
Chen Yan murmured with soft eyes.
“We’re there for each other.”
Gu Keqing put her arms around Chen Yan's waist and smiled brightly.
......
the next day.
Gu Keqing still got up early.
She took out the buns from the space in advance, heated them on the stove, cooked a pot of vegetable porridge, and hurried out.
Today is Qi Zhilan's execution day, but she is not interested in paying attention.
Making money is the first priority.
No matter what era, if you want to live a good life and make your family comfortable, you have to make more money.
Chen Yan will return to the army to be a leader in the future.
Gu Keqing doesn't want to be anyone's appendage.
She needs to have her own career and the ability to support her family.
So she decided to build her career before returning to Beijing.
"Gu Zhiqing, are you going into the city today too?"
Aunt Lanhua called her from behind.
"yes."
Gu Keqing smiled at her and asked, "Auntie, are you going into the city?"
Aunt Lanhua carried a bamboo basket filled with eggs.
"My daughter just gave birth and she's running low on milk. So, I'm going to the city to bring her some food to replenish her nutrition."
Aunt Lanhua carefully guarded the basket of eggs.
When Gu Keqing heard this, she realized that insufficient milk supply meant that there was not enough milk to eat.
"Auntie, I have a few bottles of milk powder here, why don't you take them with you."
Aunt Lanhua heard this and asked hurriedly:
"Milk powder? Is it the same kind as the one at Mrs. Chen's house?
Gu Keqing smiled and said:
“Yes, Aunt Chen’s grandson didn’t eat enough at night, so I gave her two bottles last time.”
Aunt Lanhua is also from the intelligence team of the Caohua Brigade, and she has heard Mrs. Chen brag about it hundreds of times.
She talked about how good the milk powder was and how much her little grandson loved it.
I heard that the aunties and ladies in the brigade were so envious.
"Chen Yan's wife, how can this be so embarrassing? You are too polite. How about I give you money?"
Aunt Caihua couldn't bear to take it for free, so she took out 2 yuan from her pocket.
Gu Keqing smiled and pushed it back, "We're from the same village, so it's only natural for us to help. If we run into any problems in the future, we'll still need your help."
She knew that if Chen Yan wanted to achieve great things in the future, she would need the help of the members of the Caohua Brigade.
Now is the time to help him accumulate favors.
"Then... thank you very much. From now on, if you need me any help, just let me know. I will go through fire and water for you."
Aunt Caihua's eyes began to tear up as she spoke.
These two glass bottles of milk powder would cost a lot of money if I bought them at the supply and marketing cooperative.
When someone says to give something, they give it to you. You must remember this favor.
Just like every time she rode in a bullock cart, Gu Keqing took out some candy and snacks to share with the people on the cart.
In order to drive the ox cart, everyone got up early, and when they saw the delicious snacks, they couldn't help but take them.
Lin Shulan often bought snacks before going to the countryside, but this was the first time she had eaten such delicious snacks.
"Gu Zhiqing, where did you buy your snacks? Why do they smell so good?"
Gu Keqing smiled:
"One of my younger sisters brought it from the provincial capital."
