Gu Jianing also missed Amber and the others, so he squatted down and hugged them.
Soon, they also entered the house.
Xingxing and Yueyue were playing with Amber and her cubs, while Gu Jianing and Sheng Zexi were looking after the house.
They found that the house was quite nice. There were quite a lot of furniture in it, and they were all new. They could use it completely and didn't need to buy anything else.
"You go and play with the children, I'll pack the luggage." Sheng Zexi said.
"OK."
Gu Jianing went to play with Xingxing, Yueyue, Amber and the others. Sheng Zexi moved quickly and put the luggage away.
Then started sweeping the floor again.
This place is not actually dirty, but it still needs to be cleaned.
After cleaning, Sheng Zexi fetched water in the yard and mopped the floor twice.
Seeing that he was working, Gu Jianing felt it was not appropriate to just sit there doing nothing.
She didn't look for a husband so that he would work and she would sit idle.
So, I took Xingxing and Yueyue with me, fetched some water and a rag, and helped to wipe the tables, chairs and cabinets.
It feels good to work together as a family.
During this time, Amber also told Gu Jianing that an old lady in the family compound seemed to be coveting her house.
"She came here to steal things two days ago."
Gu Jianing suddenly understood, so that's how it was.
Does this count as a feud?
Unexpectedly, as soon as she arrived at Huansha Island, someone was resentful towards her family.
It seems that this year has been a troubled one on Huansha Island.
However, Gu Jianing is not afraid. If someone really dares to do something to harm her and her family, there are malicious alarms.
In the afternoon, Sheng Zexi went out to buy some daily necessities for the family before he officially started work.
Although Gu Jianing had it in his space, it was not easy to take it out at the moment and he could only wait until later.
This time, Gu Jianing followed Sheng Zexi to Huansha Island.
Originally a doctor in the Northwest Military Region, she was transferred to the hospital on Huansha Island and was directly given the position of expert professor.
Gu Jianing had originally planned to start work tomorrow.
However, the arrival of a phone call interrupted Gu Jianing's plan.
That afternoon, not long after Sheng Zexi left, a soldier came to their door.
"Is it Gu Jianing's sister-in-law?" asked the soldier.
Gu Jianing nodded, "Yes, I am."
"There's a call from the Communications Office. It's from the Northwest Military Region, saying they're your master."
Master? Master Chen?!
"Okay, I'll go pick it up."
Gu Jianing asked Xingxing, Yueyue and Amber to look after the house, and then followed the soldiers to the communication office.
The call was answered quickly.
"Ning girl, you're at Huansha Island now. How do you feel?" As soon as I picked up the phone, I heard the familiar voice of Master Chen.
"I just arrived on the island today and I'm home. It's not bad. Although the weather here is changeable, it's not as cold as the northwest."
"That's fine. By the way, I have something important to tell you this time."
"Master, you say."
"The Beijing City would like to invite you to participate in the preparation of the college entrance examination papers."
"What?!"
When Mr. Chen said this, Gu Jianing was shocked.
"But Master, I only have a high school diploma. Are they serious about inviting me to write the college entrance examination papers?"
"What high school degree? You have professor-level ability! This is a special title given to you by the higher-ups. It's several levels higher than college students. With your ability, you can easily write the college entrance examination papers. Since you care so much about academic qualifications, I will ask the higher-ups to give you a doctorate degree from Jingshi University!"
Mr. Chen thought that as long as he proposed it himself, Jingshi University would definitely agree.
Not to mention Beijing University, even other universities are vying for it.
Gu Jianing didn't know whether to laugh or cry when listening to his master's words.
However, Gu Jianing knew that the quality of college students in this era was very high. The quality of college students was so high, let alone a doctoral degree.
From Beijing University!
Don’t say it, Gu Jianing really wants it!
"But I will be working at the island hospital tomorrow..."
"We can put this aside for now."
"How long will it take to produce the test paper this time?"
"It will probably take at least two months. The first college entrance examination after the resumption of the exam was in December, but now it's in October. The teachers who set the exam papers can't leave until at least the first batch of students finish taking the exam."
Gu Jianing: Doesn’t that mean her trip to Beijing will take at least two months?
What about Xingxing and Yueyue, and Brother Xi...
"Master, I need to think about it."
"Okay, then go back and think about it. No matter what, give me a reply tomorrow."
"good."
After hanging up the phone, Gu Jianing went home.
Sheng Zexi went to purchase supplies and didn't come back until the evening with a lot of things.
Then I immediately went to the kitchen to cook.
In their family, there has always been a tradition after marriage.
That is, as long as Sheng Zexi is at home, he will cook and wash the dishes.
Over the years, Sheng Zexi has always enjoyed it.
To him, Gu Jianing's hands were suitable for wearing beautiful jewelry, applying beautiful nail polish, and keeping them white and tender, but they were not suitable for cooking, washing dishes, or washing clothes, which would make those hands rough.
Gu Jianing also understood how much Sheng Zexi cherished her.
So, when Sheng Zexi was cooking, she would go in to help.
"There's something in my trouser pocket. It's for you. Take it out."
Gu Jianing raised his eyebrows. What could it be?
She reached out her hand, reached into Sheng Zexi's trouser pocket, and quickly took out the thing.
It turned out to be a straight pearl hairpin.
The light blue pearls are inlaid into the shape of a camellia, which is very beautiful.
Gu Jianing, who likes wearing hairpins very much, liked it at once and a smile appeared on her face.
“Where did you buy it?”
"I happened to see someone selling it, so I bought it for 5 yuan."
5 dollars!
That's a lot of money in this day and age.
"This pearl is real. Although it is not big, it is light blue and the color is quite special," Sheng Zexi explained.
The person secretly selling the pearl hairpin was an old lady who seemed to be in urgent need of money. Sheng Zexi happened to meet her and saw the light blue pearl hairpin. He thought Gu Jianing would definitely like it, so he bought it.
5 yuan is a lot of money for an average family, but it is nothing for Sheng Zexi.
So I bought it back.
As expected, Gu Jianing liked it very much.
Gu Jianing immediately took off the hairpin on her head and put on the pearl hairpin instead.
Sheng Zexi stared at it, his eyes full of tenderness, and praised: "It looks good."
Gu Jianing smiled. This guy looked at her, and it was unclear whether he was praising the hairpin or saying that she was pretty.
If Sheng Zexi knew what she was thinking, he would definitely say: Of course my wife is prettier!
