Su girl will surely soar to great heights and achieve something in Beijing sooner or later, but Baichuan is taking things one step at a time, and it's hard to say what he'll become in the future.
Marshal Li was worried that the two children would drift further and further apart in the future, and he would never be able to reconcile them, just like Qi Feng and Li Ci before.
But he will never know that everything Su Ti did was for Li Baichuan.
They had no idea what kind of surprise Suti would give them.
Little did anyone know that Li Baichuan would find an opportunity to desperately climb the ranks for Su Ti's sake. Their hearts would never be far apart; they would always be connected.
As long as they are with each other, they are full of energy.
"It's getting late, Grandpa and Dad, we should head back now." Suti checked the time. Not to mention that his grandparents were reluctant to leave, they also wanted to stay a little longer.
"Okay, now that you've settled in after moving, the classes will continue starting tomorrow. We can just go to your place; I've already made arrangements."
Marshal Li thought that Su Yatou was full of energy now, while Baichuan was still lacking in many aspects and could not be lazy anymore.
"Okay." Li Baichuan was also thinking about these things. He planned to take the exam this year and get his junior high school graduation certificate first.
Since they were already there, they couldn't leave empty-handed, so Grandpa packed a lot of things for them, a whole bunch of bags and packages.
Suti accepted with a smile, but Qi Feng stopped his father because he saw that their car was really hard to park.
Back home, Suti packed a lot of things, planning to send some to Guo Lili, as friends should exchange gifts.
"Honey, I'll mail it for you tomorrow. Just leave it there and I'll pack it up." Li Baichuan first boiled some water, thinking of taking his wife to the state-run bathhouse for a bath tomorrow.
The temperature at home is still quite cold, which he thinks is okay, but his wife can't stand it.
He first helped Suti to bed before tidying up his things. After he finished tidying up, he was about to go to bed and talk to his wife when he looked up and saw that she had already fallen asleep.
Li Baichuan tiptoed into bed, kissed his wife's forehead, pulled her into his arms, and fell asleep contentedly. He had important things to do tomorrow.
Li Baichuan habitually went for a morning run, a good habit he had developed in the compound, but this time he had a purpose.
The people living in the alley are now very friendly to Li Baichuan and Su Ti.
After that incident, everyone knew that the couple were descendants of martyrs, and no one dared to provoke them openly or secretly anymore.
Those who caused trouble last time, the better ones were demoted, and the worst ones were almost dismissed.
That's great, they complained that this place was too cramped, but now they don't have to stay here anymore.
Without a job, they certainly wouldn't be allowed to live in the housing provided by their work unit, and since no unit would accept their household registration, they would have to be transferred back to their hometowns, where every household would be bustling with activity.
"Good morning, Comrade Li." The people in the alley greeted him politely, as they were used to Li Baichuan getting up early to run.
"Good morning." Li Baichuan stopped to greet them as usual, and saw that there were quite a few people gathered there, many of whom were women who had gotten up early to go to the farmers' market to buy vegetables.
Everyone was discussing what vegetables they had managed to snag that day, and those who had ration coupons and bought some meat were eager to show it off to everyone.
"You ladies are so lucky. I'll have to get up early tomorrow to buy some meat for my wife to nourish her. She was really upset yesterday."
Li Baichuan looked at the group of people, his eyes fixed on the dishes. It was these words that drew the curious glances of the women over there.
"What's wrong with Comrade Su?" The group stopped discussing the dishes and gathered around.
"Sigh, it's hard for me to talk about this. Yesterday, my wife was resting at home, and some of her colleagues came to visit her. When they saw our yard, they were just as envious as those families who were causing trouble."
“They were jealous of my house. One of the women actually tried to ruin my reputation and smuggle me out of my wife. She found out about it and went straight to my workplace.”
"They still claimed she was my wife when we got there, leaving me with no way to explain myself. If I hadn't invited a few colleagues from my workplace to my wedding, this would have been a real mess."
"Everyone knows that rumors can kill people. When I got home, I told my wife about it, and she cried right away."
"No matter what I do, I can't coax her. She's pregnant now. That's exactly what those people are planning. They want to upset her so she can cling to me and take the house."
"But she doesn't even consider that these are all my wife's things. If anything happens to my wife, not only will the higher-ups not let her off the hook, but I will also fight her to the death."
"Oh, I shouldn't have said these things, but I'm just so angry." Li Baichuan's words made the aunties' eyes widen in surprise.
They never imagined there were people even more shameless than them. How could a girl from a respectable family do something like this?
And this Comrade Li said that this courtyard belongs to his wife. Could it be that this house is Comrade Su's dowry?
That woman was really stupid. He was a descendant of a martyr. She couldn't get away with anything by getting a little bit of skin on her body, and now she's even being resented.
"Comrade Li, you must go back and persuade Comrade Su to not take it to heart. If she gets sick from anger, she will fall into that woman's trap."
The people gathered together were all women, and they had the most disdain for those who wanted to break up other people's families.
Some kind-hearted people thought they would report her to the police next time they encountered her and charge her with hooliganism, while others with more ulterior motives thought that woman was really smart.
If she really starts clinging to someone, then the house will be hers, regardless of her reputation.
As long as she isn't caught in the act, she can just say that Li Baichuan was being a pervert with her, and then he won't be able to explain himself. He can't very well go to jail himself, can he?
In the end, wouldn't we have to admit it? But then I remembered what Comrade Li said about this house belonging to Comrade Su.
They all gave up on the idea, thinking about the group of people who had stayed there that day, who said they were Su's family members. They realized that the house might have been part of the bride's dowry.
If a family can afford a house as a dowry, and is the descendant of a martyr, then their family is certainly not simple.
At that point, let alone losing their houses, if things escalate, it might be even worse than losing their jobs. The few people who had this idea were terrified when they thought about it.
They joined the others in condemning the woman they didn't know, as if raising their voices would conceal their own ulterior motives.
"Comrade Li, don't worry, if any woman comes to your house to cause trouble again, we won't believe it."
"Everyone knows that you and Comrade Su have a good relationship. Those bad women want to ruin your relationship, but we, as your neighbors, will definitely help you."
Everyone tried to dissuade them, and a few who had ulterior motives indignantly cheered, saying that if they couldn't have it, no one else could either.
