Seeing this, Gu Nanxun couldn't help but ruffle his son's hair again. His son should grow up healthy and happy like the Little Prince.
"Mom and Dad, thank you, thank you for accepting me."
Gu Shulan's voice carried a hint of gratitude, but even more so, happiness.
"Silly child, what are you thanking me for! You, your brother, your sister, and they are all my and your father's children. You are all children I carried for ten months and gave birth to. If I'm not good to you, who will I be good to!"
Lin Qing spoke gently to Gu Shulan.
Gu Nanxun patted Gu Shulan on the shoulder and said, "Shulan, now that you have memories of your past life, do you have any plans for your future?"
Gu Shulan thought for a moment, then said, "Father, I want to study. I want to become a useful person. I don't want to be abandoned again."
Gu Nanxun nodded and said, "Okay, I will arrange the best teacher for you in a few years. But Shulan, you must understand that no matter whether you can become a useful person or not, you are still your parents' child and we will never abandon you. No matter what you choose to do in the future, as long as you are happy, your parents will always support you."
"Father, thank you." Gu Shulan's voice carried a hint of gratitude and helplessness. He had never been so embraced before. No one had ever told him that no matter what, whether he was a useful person or not, his parents would love him and would never abandon him.
Gu Nanxun smiled and said, "Shulan, remember, you are my and your mother's child. We only hope that you will be happy."
After hearing Gu Nanxun's words, Gu Shulan thought for a moment and then nodded seriously.
"Mom and Dad, I remember. I will do what I want to do."
"That's right, just do what you like and don't worry about anything else. Your parents will take care of everything!"
Lin Qing smiled and nodded upon hearing this, saying with a satisfied expression.
"Okay, Mom and Dad, I understand, I'll remember!"
Gu Nanxun nodded seriously once again, then a bright smile appeared on his face.
...
After that, with the support and encouragement of his parents, Gu Shulan began to face his new life with more confidence. He was no longer afraid of being different, nor worried about being abandoned. He knew that no matter what happened, his parents would stand by him.
As time went on, Gu Shulan gradually demonstrated his talent in both studies and life. He not only excelled academically but also showed outstanding performance in the arts and sports. Gu Nanxun and Lin Qing were also proud of him, and they often encouraged him to pursue his interests and dreams.
Gu Shulan also began to participate more actively in family activities, and his relationship with his younger siblings became closer. He was no longer the child who always stood quietly to the side, but became an active member of the family.
...
Time flies, and 1977 arrived in the blink of an eye.
In recent years, everyone has changed a lot. In addition to Lin Qing, Lin Yunfeng and Zhao Xi also had two sons and a daughter, Lu Xianghong and Chen Bin also had a son and a daughter, and Wang Haoran and Xu Fengjiao also had two sons.
Zhao Chen also married Zhao Chun five years ago and they have a son and a daughter. Zhao Xia, Zhao Qiu, Zhao Dong, Zhao Feng, Zhao Yu, Zhao Lei, and Zhao Dian have also gotten married.
Lin Qing's eldest and second eldest brothers also got married in the past few years and each had a child. Their wives were both in the military, and they met in the army. Both wives were very beautiful and had very forthright and cheerful personalities, which made Lin Qing very satisfied.
To be honest, the eldest and second brothers are truly twins; they even like the same women.
Meanwhile, waves of educated youth came to Chaoyang Brigade. Some couldn't bear it and married into the village, some used connections to leave, and some just kept enduring it silently.
Shortly after the Spring Festival in 1977, Lin Qing and Gu Nanxun invited everyone to dinner under some pretext, bringing everyone together.
"Cough cough..."
After lunch, everyone sat around the table drinking tea, while the children played in the yard.
Suddenly, Lin Qing coughed with a serious expression.
"Comrades, I have something very serious to tell you now."
Upon hearing this, everyone sat up straight, looking at Lin Qing intently, waiting for his next words.
"Comrades, according to the information I have received, the college entrance examination may be reinstated, and we all need to start studying."
Upon hearing this, Lu Xianghong looked up at Lin Qing in surprise. How did Qingqing know? Could it be...?
No, that's not right. What am I thinking? Lu Xianghong couldn't help but slap her head. Qingqing doesn't look like someone who has been reborn at all, and there aren't that many reborn people! It's probably because of some connections in Gu Nanxun's family that he knows. After all, Gu Nanxun's job is not ordinary, so it's normal for him to get some inside information.
"Sister Xiang Hong, what's wrong?"
Lin Qing said that she had been observing Lu Xianghong since the college entrance examination was reinstated. When she saw Lu Xianghong patting her head, she asked with concern.
"It's nothing, I'm just too excited. If the college entrance exam could be reinstated, wouldn't we be able to take it and go to university? Then we could leave this place!"
Lu Xianghong said excitedly, and everyone else was equally excited. They had no doubt that Lin Qing meant the college entrance examination might be reinstated.
Everyone knew about the relationship between Lin Qing and Gu Nanxun, so no one asked any further questions.
"So what do we do next?"
Xu Fengjiao looked eager to try, and she said excitedly.
"Of course, I'll study hard and prepare for the college entrance exam!" Zhao Xi said excitedly.
"No, none of what you're saying is right?"
Suddenly, Lin Qing said with a mysterious expression.
Everyone looked at Lin Qing with suspicion.
"What's wrong? What do you think we should do?"
Zhao Xi asked curiously.
"Of course we're going to the county town to buy textbooks. We haven't looked at textbooks for so many years, and the knowledge in the textbooks now is probably different from what we learned before. The most important thing now is to go to the county town to buy textbooks, and go early before everyone finds out, so that we don't run out of textbooks when everyone finds out."
"Yes, yes, the most important thing now is to buy textbooks. How are we supposed to study without textbooks!"
Xu Fengjiao looked at Lin Qing with shining eyes and nodded repeatedly. Her little sister was really too smart.
Everyone else nodded in agreement.
Seeing that everyone agreed with her point of view, Lin Qing continued, "Then let's set off tomorrow and go to the county town as soon as possible to try to buy all the textbooks we need."
"Okay, it's settled then!" everyone answered in unison.
