Gu Jianing: "I just think that you are a really good husband, Xi Ge, and you will definitely be a good father in the future."
She was telling the truth. Ever since he confirmed that she was pregnant, Sheng Zexi had been doing his best to follow Dr. Hao's advice on what pregnant women should pay attention to and how to take care of them.
However, Gu Jianing's pregnancy has not yet been told to Gu's family or Grandpa Sang. They will wait three months until everything is stable before telling them the good news.
At this moment, Sheng Zexi heard his wife's praise for him, and his eyebrows couldn't help but rise, and the corners of his mouth also raised a big arc, "Of course, I, Sheng Zexi, dare to guarantee that I am definitely the best husband in the world."
As for being a father, he has never been one and doesn't know how to be one.
He didn't have a concept in his mind yet, but he thought that if it was his and Ningning's child, he would try his best to be a good father.
Gu Jianing probably understood the hidden meaning in Sheng Zexi's words. She gave him a slight glare and said nothing more.
Qin Tian, who was sitting in the back seat and watched the whole process, said: Sister Gu and her brother-in-law have a really good relationship.
The jeep drove slowly out of the military area. Kaoshan Village was not far away. With Qin Tian's guidance, they arrived in less than ten minutes.
After getting out of the car, Gu Jianing stood in front of the Qin family's house.
Surprisingly, she used to think that the Qin family was very poor and might live in a thatched house or an adobe house, but she didn't expect that it was a green brick and tile house that was not very big, but not small either.
Seeing Gu Jianing looking at the house, Qin Tian also looked at the house, as if he was looking through it, and said softly: "Grandma said that this house was built by my parents..."
Qin Tian had forgotten how long it had been since he had said the words "Dad and Mom". When he mentioned them now, even he felt a little strange.
They have been away from home for 8 years.
They were suddenly picked up by a car and left. Qin Tian and Qin Qing were only 2 years old at the time.
Sister Qin Qing’s memory is not as good as Qin Tian’s. She can’t even remember what her parents look like.
Qin Tian, on the other hand, has an early memory and has remembered his memories from when he was 2 years old all these years.
He remembered that day, his mother was telling him and his sister how to make powerful weapons, and his father took a knife and used a piece of wood to carve a small pistol for him and his sister.
It was a very ordinary and warm day.
The arrival of the car broke the warmth and made this day unusual.
The car took Mom and Dad away in such a hurry that they didn't even have time to pack their clothes.
Mom and Dad only had time to say goodbye to grandma and hug him and his sister.
At that time, he remembered that his mother hugged him and told him to live well with his grandmother and wait for them to come back.
Perhaps it was a child's intuition, but that day the 2-year-old Qin Tian cried and asked his parents not to leave.
He had a bad intuition, which told him that if his parents left, he might never see them again in his lifetime.
So, mom and dad must stay.
But in the end, no matter how much little Qintian cried, his parents still left.
With tears in his eyes, little Qintian and his sister ran after the car, but eventually they fell down. They could only watch as his parents in the car quickly disappeared from their sight.
Later...
During the time when his parents left, he and his sister would cry from time to time whenever they thought about them.
Little Qintian also cried and asked his grandmother where his father and mother had gone.
At that time, the old lady held him and his sister in her arms and said, "Your father and mother are going to do extraordinary things for the country and the people."
"Xiaotian, Xiaoqing, don't blame your parents, they are great."
Two-year-old Qin Tian couldn't understand the word "great". He only knew that he and his sister missed their parents, but their parents were not there.
But children always seem to forget things faster.
Once, when little Qintian thought of his parents, he suddenly discovered that his sister seemed to have not cried or mentioned his parents for some time.
Later, no matter how good Qintian's memory was, he was only 2 years old at the time. As he grew older, the scene of that day, including the figures and faces of his parents, seemed to become gradually blurred.
Mom and Dad, if you don’t come back, my sister and I may not remember you.
At the distant Southeastern Weapons Research Institute, a young woman who was assembling weapons suddenly felt a pain in her heart and burst into tears.
"What's wrong?" The husband next to her noticed the situation and asked nervously.
The woman shook her head gently. "Nothing. I just suddenly thought of my two children."
The man hugged his wife and said, "It will be soon. We will be able to go back soon. Although we cannot send letters back, we send our wages back every month. Mother and the children should be doing well."
"Yeah, I hope so."
The sadness was only momentary. Time was running out, so the couple calmed down and continued with the work at hand.
In Kaoshan Village, Gu Jianing had already entered the Qin family and came to Grandma Qin's kang.
Grandma Qin was awake, and when she saw the perfect couple Gu Jianing and Sheng Zexi, her eyes were full of kindness.
She coughed and said, "You must be the sister Gu that Xiaotian mentioned who is very kind to them. Comrade Xiaogu, please come over. It's so cold, Xiaotian shouldn't have disturbed you."
"They say that life and death are determined by fate. I, an old woman, have lived long enough. I just can't bear to leave my two children behind, ahem..."
"Grandma..." Qin Tian and Qin Qing both had tears in their eyes.
"Grandma, since you are worried about the two children, you should take good care of yourself. You should know that the Qin family is in such a situation. If you are not here, the two siblings will be bullied."
While comforting her, Gu Jianing let the system bind Granny Qin as a patient, while scanning Granny Qin's physical condition with his eyes.
It was quickly concluded that it was indeed tuberculosis.
She checked Grandma Qin's pulse and finally said, "...it's tuberculosis."
When Granny Qin heard the word "pulmonary tuberculosis" from her, a hint of grayness flashed across her already pale and thin face again.
She had seen tuberculosis before in her life.
Few people can be cured.
Granny Qin seemed to be able to foresee her own death.
She had lived to this age, so it didn't matter if she died, but what about her two children?
She knew that many people in the village were eyeing the Qin family's brick and tile house.
My son and daughter-in-law have been gone for eight years and we haven't received even a letter from them, let alone sent money back. Otherwise, this family, with its old and young, wouldn't be in such a difficult situation.
I don't know if she can wait for them to come back with her eyes closed.
Thinking of this, tears welled up in Grandma Qin's eyes.
"Grandma..." Seeing grandma crying, Qin Tian and his sister were stunned.
"Hey, grandma, don't cry. Even though it's tuberculosis, I didn't say it can't be cured."
