Wang Guiying, Chen Guo, Ge Yun, Chen Qiang, and Fan Chun kept looking at him in astonishment and disbelief. They all looked at Gu Zhenqi, and they all had the same strange expression on their faces.
Ge Yun leaned close to Chen Guo and whispered: "Are you possessed by a ghost?"
Fan Chun leaned close to Chen Qiang and whispered: "It's very strange!"
Wang Guiying herself was also puzzled. Gu Zhenqi suddenly became a person she didn't recognize. Considering her personality, she glared at Ge Yun and Fan Chun each, giving them a warning look.
After Gu Zhenqi sat down, she looked at everyone at the table seriously: "Mom, eldest brother, eldest sister-in-law, second brother, second sister-in-law, I have been married into your family for three years, and I have been a parasite for you to support. I feel uneasy. I can't do farm work, and the children are young, so I have to take care of them at home. From now on, let me be responsible for the three meals a day at home. Chen Kuo has a lot of allowances, and I will make sure you have enough to eat every meal!"
"Zhenqi, are you serious? Actually, you don't have to. You are such a beautiful girl. You married into our Chen family and gave birth to children for the third son. He hasn't been home for three years. You are a widow, and your mother feels guilty about it. Just take good care of the children. As for the meals, your eldest and second sisters-in-law and I will take turns to cook. You are not needed!"
"Mom, eldest sister-in-law, second sister-in-law, you are too tired from work. Ruiduo and Fei'an are very well behaved. I can take care of them and cook. Since you treat me as a family member, it is only right that you share some of the burden at home!"
"Besides, Chen Kuo will come back eventually, and I have no intention of divorcing him. So, we have to continue living our life and become the best in the village. Mother, eldest brother, eldest sister-in-law, second brother, second sister-in-law, please give me this opportunity to do something for our family!"
When Wang Guiying heard that Gu Zhenqi had no intention of getting a divorce and wanted to continue to live a good life with Chen Kuo, the big stone that had been hanging in her heart fell to the ground. What else could she refuse: "Okay, okay, mother promises you, but there is only one thing, don't work too hard, keep the subsidy from San'er for yourself, don't use it to support the family, we can just make do with it casually."
Chen Guo and Chen Qiang are genuine, honest and hardworking farmers. They only know how to work, and they think that household matters are women's business, so they automatically keep silent and leave it to their wives.
Ge Yun and Fan Chun looked at each other. They were very happy that they could go home and have a ready-made meal without having to cook.
Ge Yun said cheerfully: "Thank you for your hard work, Zhenqi."
Fan Chun said frankly: "This is what you asked for!"
When Gu Zhenqi was reborn, she had already thought about it while cooking. The matter of her child in her previous life had become an unbridgeable gap between her and the Chen family, her parents, and her brothers.
In her previous life, after she turned 30, she had already gained both fame and fortune, but she was alone. During the day, it was fine, as she had endless work and clients to meet. But once night fell, she was left with an empty big house, all alone. Even if she cooked a big table of dishes, she would often sit at the table alone until dawn!
As she grew older, she envied those lively and happy families talking and laughing.
There are relatives visiting each other, sisters-in-law bickering with each other, parents being filial, children surrounding each other, and a man who understands your feelings.
She had nothing. To be more precise, what she once had was gone because she didn't appreciate it!
Since she can live her life over again, she will not leave any regrets from her past life behind, and will realize all her desires from her past life with her own hands!
Gu Zhenqi picked up a big bun and handed it to Wang Guiying: "Mom, eat the bun and taste it to see if it tastes good."
She handed a big bun to each person at the table and said sincerely: "I will do it well!"
Rui Duo praised her and said, "Mom, you are the best."
Fei An said: "Mom, cow!"
Gu Zhenqi took a bun and cut it into two halves, handing them to Ruiduo and Fei'an respectively, and said with a gentle smile: "You are the best. Because of you, mom is more motivated!"
Ruiduo took it and took a big bite: "Good, mom, good!"
Fei An also took a bite and said, "Mom, it's delicious, super delicious, half a piece is not enough!"
"You two are so sweet-mouthed, praising your mother all the time. I guess you think praise is free, right?" Wang Guiying said with a loving smile.
Ruiduo smiled and said: "Grandma, it doesn't cost money, but you should remember to praise your mother more!"
After saying that, she looked at the other people at the table and said in a soft and tender voice: "Uncle, aunt, second uncle, second aunt, you should also praise my mother more! It's free!"
"Ha ha……"
"..."
Everyone at the table was instantly amused by Ruiduo's innocence and cuteness.
Next, everyone praised Gu Zhenqi out of respect, which made her feel very embarrassed!
After dinner
During the lunch break, Gu Zhenqi coaxed the two children to sleep and then went to Wang Guiying's room.
"Zhenqi, is there anything you need from your mother?" Wang Guiying took off her shoes and got on the kang, preparing to doze off for a while.
"Mom, it's nothing serious. It won't disturb your lunch break. It's just a few words. I want to ask you for Chen Kuo's address. You said, we are husband and wife, we can't have no contact, right? I want to write him a letter, and when the weather gets cooler, I will make some food that is easy to preserve and mail it to him!"
When Wang Guiying heard this, she immediately smiled and excitedly grabbed Gu Zhenqi's hand: "Zhenqi, are you serious? Are you kidding me?"
Gu Zhenqi looked at Wang Guiying sincerely and nodded seriously: "Mom! What I said is of course true. Chen Kuo and I even have a child. If I don't live a good life with him, who else can I live with? Besides, the children also need a dad!"
Gu Zhenqi's last sentence was very meaningful. In her previous life, she met Chen Kuo once again, and they were both middle-aged.
She was a successful female entrepreneur and he was a senior military official. She didn't know what was wrong with her at the time, but she actually asked him with a licking face: "Do you hate me for the children's affairs?"
His face was filled with guilt, and he said sadly: "I am not a qualified father myself! How can I blame you? I am sorry for all three of you!"
They never met again after that. She knew very little about him, except that he never remarried.
After experiencing a lifetime, Gu Zhenqi looks at things from a completely different perspective and his vision is no longer narrow.
Defending the country is the mission of soldiers. Chen Kuo really did nothing wrong. Soldiers give up their own families to protect the happiness of thousands of families. They are the people's heroes!
Now Gu Zhenqi feels extremely honored and proud to marry a soldier of the people. Chen Kuo is a truly upright man!
He is going to protect the country, and Gu Zhenqi is willing to protect his small home for him, and will cultivate their relationship well when he comes back.
If he doesn't like her and the two of them can't develop that kind of relationship, she won't force it. For the sake of the children living in a healthy family, she will still try her best.
"Good, good. Good, really good, really good." Wang Guiying was so happy and relieved, except for these few words. There are no other words that can express her feelings at the moment.
She went downstairs again, took out a letter from the locked cabinet and handed it to Gu Zhenqi: "I just received the letter. It's the allowance for the third brother this month. I was going to give it to you tonight. Look at it and there should be a mailing address on it."
Gu Zhenqi carefully put away the letter and said, "Mom, you should have a rest. I will be leaving first."
…
When Gu Zhenqi came to the kitchen to clean up, she found Ge Yun sneaking around in the kitchen.
"Sister-in-law, what are you doing?"
Gu Zhenqi suddenly spoke up, which frightened Ge Yun so much that the bun in his hand almost fell to the ground: "Well, it's nothing, you go ahead and pack up, I'm leaving first!"
Just as Ge Yun reached the door, Gu Zhenqi's voice came from behind her: "Sister-in-law, aren't you full just now? Can you finish six buns at a time?"
Ge Yun turned back awkwardly and smiled sheepishly: "Hehe, Zhenqi, that thing, no, I'm full and I'm still feeling full now."
"What about the eldest sister-in-law? To her parents' home?"
"No, no, no, I left it for Chen Xiaode, Chen Zhizhi."
Ge Yun ran back anxiously and waved his hands to deny it.
"I know. I've kept all of Zhizhi's. No matter what, the children can't be without food. They can eat it when they come back from school in the evening. Don't do this in the future, sister-in-law. It's easy to cause misunderstandings and unpleasantness!"
"Since I said I would cook and make sure the family is well fed, I will definitely do it. If sister-in-law doesn't trust me, we can go to mom to testify. Sister-in-law, do you think it's okay?"
