"Alright, how could I bear to?" Gu Nanxun put the rice to steam, then turned around and pulled Lin Qing away from the kitchen.
Lin Qing was all smiles after being coaxed by Gu Nanxun. While waiting for dinner, the two of them snuggled on the sofa to watch a movie. But as the movie progressed, Lin Qing fell asleep in Gu Nanxun's arms. Gu Nanxun smiled and kissed Lin Qing's forehead, then carried her directly to the bedroom. He used a towel to wipe Lin Qing's face and feet, then washed up himself and went to bed as well. As for the rice, he just left it in the pot; the rice cooker would automatically keep it warm after it was cooked.
The next day, when Lin Qing woke up, she was still a little stunned to find herself lying in bed. She hadn't expected to fall asleep while watching a movie. What a pity, she missed out on the fried rice.
"She's awake!" Gu Nanxun, who had been keeping a close eye on Lin Qing, knew as soon as she woke up, so he came in and picked her up from the bed.
"Do you want me to carry you to the washroom?" Gu Nanxun lowered his head and kissed Lin Qing's forehead, then said with a smile.
"Okay!" After saying that, Lin Qing reached out and hugged Gu Nanxun's neck. Lin Qing had just woken up and her whole body was still weak. She was happy to enjoy the idea of someone carrying her to the bathroom.
Gu Nanxun chuckled, then scooped Lin Qing up and carried her to the bathroom. He placed her on the sink, squeezed toothpaste onto a toothbrush, and handed it to her. After Lin Qing brushed her teeth, Gu Nanxun picked up a towel and began drying her face.
"Okay, Nanxun, you can go now, I need to use the restroom!"
Gu Nanxun chuckled and pinched Lin Qing's cheek. "You little ingrate, I just finished helping you wash up and you're already kicking me out."
Lin Qing's eyes widened. "Brother Nanxun, you don't even watch me go to the bathroom, do you?"
"Qingqing, do you mind?" Gu Nanxun asked with a smile after hearing Lin Qing's words.
Lin Qing's eyes widened even more. "Brother Nanxun, I never thought you were this kind of person."
Gu Nanxun buried his head in Lin Qing's neck for a moment before smiling and saying, "What kind of person is she? Hmm, you still haven't said whether you mind or not?"
Lin Qing pushed Gu Nanxun's head away. "I mind, I mind! Brother Nanxun, you need to leave right now, or I'll get angry!"
Gu Nanxun lifted Lin Qing off the bathroom sink, pinched her cheek, and said with a smile, "Alright, I was just kidding! Hurry up and get on, I'll go out and make you breakfast. Do you want fried rice with egg again?" Gu Nanxun knew Lin Qing well; she hadn't had fried rice with egg yesterday, so she was definitely thinking about it today!
"Yes, I also want to eat fried rice with eggs. I didn't get to eat any yesterday," Lin Qing nodded and said.
"Okay, then I'll go out and make you some fried rice!" After saying that, Gu Nanxun left the bathroom.
Gu Nanxun went to the kitchen and saw that all the ingredients for making fried rice were already prepared. Gu Nanxun poured oil into the pan, and soon the aroma of fried rice filled the room.
Lin Qing came out of the bathroom and followed the aroma directly to the kitchen, where Gu Nanxun was ladling fried rice from the pan onto a plate.
Gu Nanxun served two plates of fried rice and carried them to the restaurant. Lin Qing followed Gu Nanxun to the restaurant. Gu Nanxun placed a plate of fried rice in front of Lin Qing and said, "You eat first, I'll go get some soup."
Looking at the golden fried rice, Lin Qing swallowed hard, eagerly picked up a spoon, and happily began to eat. As she ate, she mumbled to Gu Nanxun, "Brother Nanxun, your fried rice is still so delicious."
Gu Nanxun smiled and said, "If you like it, eat more, don't choke." After saying that, he turned around and went to the kitchen to bring out a pot of tomato and egg soup and two small bowls.
Gu Nanxun ladled a bowl of tomato and egg soup and placed it in front of Lin Qing: "Drink some soup, don't just eat rice."
Lin Qing took a sip of soup and sighed contentedly. Looking at Gu Nanxun, she suddenly remembered something, "Nanxun-ge, why didn't you go out today? Aren't you going out?"
Gu Nanxun nodded. "I'm not going out today. Your second and third brothers went by themselves. I'll stay home with you today."
Lin Qing chuckled, "Then let's go out and have some fun today. I haven't gone out to play in a long time."
Gu Nanxun thought for a moment and nodded, "Okay, where do you want to go?"
Lin Qing's eyes lit up. "I want to go to the amusement park!"
Gu Nanxun smiled and patted her head, "Baby, where am I supposed to get you an amusement park?"
"Sigh! I was just thinking about it. I've never been to an amusement park. When I was little, I didn't have the money to go, and now that I'm older, I'm busy with work and don't have time to go!" Lin Qing finished speaking and then lowered her head to eat the egg fried rice in her bowl.
A flicker of heartache crossed Gu Nanxun's eyes. He stroked Lei Linqing's hair and said with a smile, "We can take the children with us later!"
"Pfft..."
Hearing Gu Nanxun's words, Lin Qing laughed. As she laughed, she said to Gu Nanxun, "Bringing the child probably won't work, but bringing the grandson might be possible."
"hehe……"
Gu Nanxun laughed along, and as he laughed, he patted Lin Qing's head again: "Then let's take our grandson with us."
"Okay, then it's settled. We'll take our grandson to the amusement park from now on."
"Okay!" Gu Nanxun looked at Lin Qing, who was eating with her head down, and his heartache resurfaced in his eyes. In the days without him, what kind of life had his baby been living? He wondered how much suffering she had endured? And even now, she hadn't told him how she died.
Gu Laixun lowered his head and continued eating. He thought that this was the last bit of memory he had not recovered. He knew that this part of his memory was the memory of his baby's death. Although he had not remembered anything yet, every time he thought of it, his heart ached suffocatingly.
Turning his head, Gu Nanxun remembered Lin Qing's desire to go to the amusement park. Gu Nanxun recalled that the earliest amusement parks in China appeared in the early 20th century, which was more than 30 years ago. That was too long. He thought he could think about how to bring the amusement park to the world ahead of time.
After finishing their meal, the two left the space and went to the courtyard. Until they finished eating, Lin Qing didn't think about where to go. She just wanted to go out because she had been staying at home for too long, but where could she go in this era?
In the courtyard, Zhao Xi and Zhao Chen were cleaning the fish and loaches they had brought back yesterday. Lin Qing watched them listlessly from the side; she didn't want to do anything today.
"Qingqing, what are you going to do with these fish and loaches?"
The fish and loach were almost ready to be cleaned, so Zhao Xi asked Lin Qing for advice.
"Let's make some dried fish that can be stored for a long time, salted fish or air-dried fish are fine. I want my second brother to take some with him when he leaves. Let's make loach into dried loach. But are these loaches safe to eat? Have they been cleaned of all their spit-out food?"
