Lin Chuchu felt that Mu Chen and Captain Qin must have done something special.
After breakfast, Lin Chuchu didn't wait for them and took Liu Xiaonuan to head towards Du Lingling's house.
Du Lingling lived next door to the Hou family, so she took the opportunity to visit Grandma Hou and the children.
The grandmother and grandson can only rely on each other for survival now, but fortunately, with everyone's care, their lives are not bad.
With Researcher Hou's subsidy coming back every month, the child has gained some weight back in the past two months.
When the two arrived, Du Lingling and her child had just finished eating and were thinking of tidying up before going to work when Lin Chuchu showed up.
She saw Lin Chuchu's face full of surprise, "Sister Chuchu, you're back! Why did this mission take so long?"
He looked her up and down and, finding that she was not injured, was relieved.
Thinking of something, she said to the two of them, "Wait a moment, I'll go find Luo Bai and Grandma Hou right now."
As he spoke, he placed his chubby son into Lin Chuchu's arms.
The little guy wasn't shy at all, staring intently at Lin Chuchu, and occasionally grinning.
"Little guy, you're quite heavy. It seems your mother has taken good care of you."
Lin Chuchu coaxed him to talk, asking him to introduce himself and say how old he was. The little guy answered loudly and even took out his snacks and toys for the two of them to play together.
Within minutes, several people walked in from outside. It was Grandma Hou, Song Luobai, Xiao Lu, and the children.
Lin Chuchu quickly greeted everyone, and after a few words of chatter, she turned to look at Grandma Hou and the little granddaughter in her arms.
She was born at the same time as Du Lingling's child, but she is much shorter and thinner than Du Lingling's child.
Grandma Hou patted her granddaughter's head helplessly, "She's gained a little weight since she first came back, but she doesn't talk much and is rather timid."
As she spoke, Grandma Hou's eyes reddened slightly, filled with pity for her granddaughter and resentment towards her daughter-in-law.
"If she doesn't like her daughter, why does she want custody? And even after she goes back, she doesn't raise her properly and lets others bully her daughter. How can she be so heartless?"
Lin Chuchu didn't understand the other person's thoughts. If it were her, she would definitely fight back if someone bullied her child.
"It's all good now. The child will gradually get better. It's nothing serious. Once he plays with other children, his personality will slowly change back."
Grandma Hou nodded, "Yes, it's fortunate that you were willing to help me and let the children play with her, otherwise, I really wouldn't know what to do."
Thinking about it, the grandmother and grandson are quite lucky. Although they encountered an irresponsible daughter-in-law/mother, their son's friends and colleagues have taken good care of them.
The little girl timidly hid behind her grandmother, but couldn't resist peeking out out of curiosity.
She looked longingly at the toys on the bed, wanting to play with them but too afraid to.
The two older children pulled her to play together.
Children love to be together, and before long, the children were playing happily.
Everyone had to go to work, so after talking for a while, they all went outside.
Du Lingling left her children with Grandma Hou for help, while the rest of her children were quite young, so they took care of them themselves.
As Lin Chuchu, Liu Xiaonuan, and Xiao Lu walked, they fell behind the others.
How is your recovery going?
Previously, Xiao Lu had mentioned wanting to come back later, so Lin Chuchu asked him directly.
Given her current contributions to the country, having one more bodyguard by her side wouldn't be a problem.
“I have resumed training, but my physical condition is not as good as before I was pregnant. I have made up my mind that I will still be a bodyguard in the future, but I can't stay by your side anymore.”
Xiao Lu was also disappointed, but there was nothing that could be done about it.
Having followed Lin Chuchu for so long, she naturally knew how dangerous it was around Lin Chuchu, and that with her current level of skill, she was not capable of protecting Lin Chuchu.
Besides, Lin Chuchu already has Liu Xiaonuan by her side. Although she knows that if she agrees, she can definitely return to Lin Chuchu's side and take up a guard position.
But there's really no need for that. This is fine as it is. I can still see Lin Chuchu regularly, and it's no different from before.
Seeing that she had made up her mind, Lin Chuchu did not try to persuade her further.
Since the other party has made up their mind, they must have discussed it with Captain Qin and his team.
"Oh, never mind, you guys go ahead and get busy, I need to go back and see the kids too."
Xiao Lu smiled and shooed the two away, then watched them leave.
Today, Lin Chuchu's work is the same as yesterday; she still has to deal with those cultural relics.
When they saw Lin Chuchu arrive, the experts and leaders felt a little embarrassed.
"Comrade Lin, please excuse our rudeness. We were just too excited yesterday."
Lin Chuchu shook her head, "We were also incredibly excited when we first saw this jade seal, but not as much as you guys."
That's the truth. The moment they saw the Imperial Seal, they couldn't sleep that night. Team Leader Qin and his team got up in the middle of the night to train.
Therefore, Lin Chuchu naturally understood everyone's excited state.
After talking for a while, everyone continued to sort out the cultural relics. There were still many cultural relics in Lin Chuchu's space that hadn't been taken out yet, and they still had a lot to do.
For a whole month, Lin Chuchu wandered back and forth in the artifact warehouse. After finally taking out all the artifacts, the experts had a thick stack of artifact names and brief descriptions in their hands.
Lin Chuchu couldn't help with the rest. She hadn't had a break since returning, and with more work to do, she decided to apply for leave.
Her leave application was quite simple. She didn't need to say how many days she wanted to take; she just needed to be notified of the start date of her leave. When she wanted to come back, she could cancel her leave.
After so long, Mu Chen had long since gone back to work. A month later, when Lin Chuchu returned to the family compound, she found that Xiao Bao had changed a lot.
"Grandma, what's wrong with Xiaobao? Why is he suddenly being so obedient?"
Grandma shook her head. "I don't know either. Ever since Chen'er and Captain Qin took him out for two days last time, he's been like this since we came back."
“He has even started to take his studies seriously. Xiao Bao is very smart. He just didn’t want to study properly before, but now that he’s putting his mind to it, his grades are improving very quickly.”
Lin Chuchu felt a little curious, wondering how Mu Chen and the others had managed to do it.
Actually, their method was very simple: they took the children to live like wild men for two days. Xiao Bao suffered a lot of setbacks during the process because he couldn't understand a single word his father and Uncle Qin said.
Finally, Dad said, "With your attitude, you want to be a general? Other generals aren't like you who know nothing."
From then on, Xiao Bao made up his mind to study hard.
