The two children were stunned at first, somewhat unable to believe it, but they soon reacted, their eyes became red, and they kept bowing to Gu Jianing to express their gratitude.
With long-term cooperation, they no longer have to travel to such a distant county to buy traditional Chinese medicine, and the price will not be pushed down too low.
Moreover, the sister in front of him was from the military district and was a military wife. She had a very good impression of all soldiers and military wives.
"By the way, do you want tickets? Do you want to convert some money into tickets?" Gu Jianing asked.
These days, if you have money but no tickets, there are still many things you can’t buy.
"Yes, yes."
So, Gu Jianing gave them the calculated money and tickets.
Qin Tian and Qin Qing had never had so much money and tickets before. Looking at the piles of money and tickets, they felt that the upcoming heavy snow would block the mountain, so they shouldn't be sad.
"Sister, let's go back then."
"etc."
Just when the two were about to say goodbye to Gu Jianing and go buy food, Gu Jianing stopped them.
The two kids stopped immediately, a little nervous, fearing that something bad might happen.
Gu Jianing turned to the uncle selling mutton soup and said, "Uncle, pack me three more servings."
The uncle looked at Gu Jianing as if he was looking at the God of Wealth, "Okay."
Soon, everything was packed up.
Then, Gu Jianing handed two of them to Qin Tian and Qin Qing, brother and sister, "Here, they are for you."
Just now she saw that when the two little ones were talking to her, they couldn't help but glance at the fragrant and hot mutton stall, and sniffed with their little noses.
Give, give them?
Two servings of mutton soup, and they’re so expensive!
"No, no, we can't have it."
Having said that, Qin Tian pulled his sister and was about to leave. It was too valuable and they could not accept it.
When the people around saw Gu Jianing's behavior, they gasped. This girl is really rich. She just gave away two servings of mutton soup like that.
How could Gu Jianing allow others to refuse what he wanted to give?
He stuffed it into their arms and said, "Just take it. Consider it as us making friends. We will have long-term cooperation in the future."
"Okay, that's it. See you next time."
As he spoke, Gu Jianing took another portion of mutton soup that he was going to give to Sheng Zexi, asked the man pushing the cart to put a few bags of herbs on the cart, and then left to the place where he had agreed to meet with Zhang Shuwan and Yu Saozi.
It's about time.
So, here, Grandma Qin, who had just finished taking her medicine at home and was waiting, saw her two children coming in with red eyes.
I thought they were being bullied.
As a result, I saw them take out the food they had bought, the remaining money and tickets, and the two servings of mutton soup.
After listening to them, I found out that the two servings of mutton soup were actually given to them by the girl who kindly bought their herbs.
Not only that, she also planned to cooperate with them for a long time. As long as they had herbs, they could send them to her in the Northwest Military Region once a week.
"Okay, okay, this way you don't have to run to the county town in such a cold weather." Grandma Qin nodded repeatedly. It was too far and too cold, and the two children were still so young, and she would be worried at home.
The Northwest Military Region is different, it is close and safe.
After learning that it was Gu Jianing who forced the mutton soup on them, Grandma Qin had an even better impression of her.
She was a very kind girl.
"Whenever you have the chance in the future, you must repay that sister, okay?" Grandma Qin taught.
"Well, grandma, we know."
"Grandma, let's eat mutton together."
"No, just eat it. Grandma doesn't like it."
The two children were unable to eat meat once throughout the whole year. Finally, a kind-hearted person gave them mutton soup. How could she accept it?
She is old, and there is no use for her to eat these. It is more important to give them to her children so that they can grow.
"No, grandma, if you don't eat it, Xiaotian won't eat it either."
"Yes, if grandma wants to eat, grandma eats it, and then Qingqing eats it."
"Yes, grandma is not in good health. She is sick and needs to eat meat to keep healthy."
The two children were very stubborn. They knew that grandma didn’t dislike eating meat at all, she just wanted to give them the meat.
But how can they eat with peace of mind?
Granny Qin also knew the tempers of the two children. She sighed and said, "Okay, then the three of us will eat together."
So, in this shabby and cold little house, the three generations of grandparents and grandchildren ate warm mutton and drank mutton soup together, and they felt that the winter of this year did not seem so cold.
During this time, there were also children's voices chattering about what food they bought and how long it would last. They also said that they would go to the mountains to look for more herbs before the snow closed the mountains...
As Grandma Qin ate mutton soup and listened to her grandson's chatter, she felt much better both physically and mentally.
Just hold on a little longer.
At least, we have to wait until the parents of the two children come back.
That’s right, I’ve been waiting for 8 years, and I don’t know how long I have to wait.
She didn't even know whether her son and daughter-in-law were alive or dead.
At this time, in a remote mountainous area far to the southeast, no one knew that the country's special weapons research base was here.
At this time, a couple and their team had just perfectly completed a project they were currently working on, and everyone was very happy.
The aerospace project that has been studied for several years has finally made progress. This progress took them several years, but with this step forward, subsequent progress will be faster.
It was just during the break that the couple's eyes were red with longing for their old mother and two children who were far away in their hometown in the northwest.
The man hugged his wife and comforted her, "Wait a little longer, it will be soon, at most two years, at least one year, we can go back."
"Um."
They hadn't seen each other for 8 years, and there was no way for them to send any news back, nor any news to come in.
Eight years is neither long nor short.
I don’t know what happened to the people they care about.
What they don’t know is that 8 years is enough time to change a lot.
It is enough to make a healthy mother become old and weak, and it is also enough to make a child who could only stagger and speak incoherently become self-reliant, take care of himself, and help take care of his sick grandmother.
However, even if he knew, he might still make the same choice.
Big country, small family, big love, small love, it is always difficult to choose.
But someone has to sacrifice small love and fulfill big love. Only when everyone is well, can the thousands of small families protected by everyone be better.

"You actually bought so many things?"
When Gu Jianing and the people pushing the cart arrived at the agreed location, Zhang Shuwan and Yu Saozi couldn't help but exclaimed when they saw the cart was full of things.
Gu Jianing smiled a little embarrassedly. She also knew that she seemed to have not been able to control all of them and bought too much.
