At night, Shen Qingmiao finally got a good night's sleep. She had never slept well in the hospital. It was too noisy. There were always footsteps coming in and out, or people talking. It was so hard to get a good night's sleep.
Today, there were finally no annoying noises, and I could finally have a good, comfortable sleep. Covered in a thick blanket, Shen Qingmiao even piled his cotton-padded jacket and sweater on himself to keep himself even warmer.
The most comfortable thing in winter is to lie in bed. As soon as he lay down, Shen Qingmiao let out a comfortable sigh. He crawled in completely, leaving only his face exposed. Xue's mother in the next bed had also gotten into bed. They all felt that bed was the most comfortable place.
The two of them were lying on their respective beds, talking, and as they chatted, the night grew late. After their eyelids began to droop and their mouths yawned repeatedly, Shen Qingmiao said goodbye to Xue's mother and fell asleep.
He slept soundly until the sun was high in the sky, and the sunlight was shining on the quilt. Shen Qingmiao opened his eyes, but was immediately stimulated by the glare of the sun and closed them immediately. After opening and closing them several times, his eyes finally adjusted to the brightness.
Shen Qingmiao, who had just woken up, had not yet regained her memory. For a moment, she could not remember where she was. Wasn't she in the hospital?
After a few seconds, her memory returned and she finally understood the situation. She glanced at the bed next to her and saw that no one was there, and the quilt had been folded.
Where did your aunt go?
What time is it now?
Seeing that the room was empty, Shen Qingmiao took out her watch from her space and checked the time. She hadn't expected to sleep so late, and it was already half past nine.
"No wonder my aunt is up. Why did I sleep so late?" Shen Qingmiao put the watch back into the space and sat up, rubbing his fluffy and messy hair with his hands, his face full of confusion.
"Forget it, forget it, let's get up quickly." It was so late, and Shen Qingmiao's desire to stay in bed disappeared. He put on a sweater, lifted the quilt, and got up quickly.
After getting up, Xue's mother saw Shen Qingmiao was still sleeping and did not disturb her. Shen Qingmiao looked tired due to the busy days, and Xue's mother could also see it.
Let her have a good sleep to replenish her energy.
Xue's mother got up alone and went out to get a pot of hot water. Not only did she need it herself, but she also thought that Shen Qingmiao would probably need it after she got up, so she filled the pot.
After Xue's mother finished washing up, she saw that Shen Qingmiao was still asleep, so she wanted to go out and buy some breakfast. When she left, Xue's mother walked quietly, afraid of waking Shen Qingmiao.
When closing the door, Xue's mother took a special look at Shen Qingmiao who was still sleeping soundly. Seeing that she didn't look like she was going to wake up, she closed the door with confidence.
During the years that Gu Jingyuan was serving in the army, Xue's mother had come here several times. So she knew exactly where the breakfast cafeteria was.
Xue's mother went downstairs and out of the guesthouse. When she looked up, she saw her son walking towards her carrying something.
"It seems that I don't need to buy breakfast myself." Now Xue's mother had no desire to move, but stood there waiting for Gu Jingyuan to come over.
Gu Jingyuan spotted Xue's mother from a distance, and only spoke after he approached her, "Mom, where are you going?"
"I was just about to buy breakfast, and here you are." While speaking, Xue's mother looked at the things Gu Jingyuan was carrying.
Gu Jingyuan picked up the breakfast in his hand and placed it in front of Xue's mother. "That's perfect. I brought breakfast with me. You don't have to make another trip."
"Let's go up. Oh, by the way, why don't you see Miaomiao?"
Mother Xue followed Gu Jingyuan back to the house. "Qingmiao is still sleeping. She must be too tired these days. Please be quiet and don't disturb her."
"Know."
Gu Jingyuan saw how tired the little girl was. Not only did she have to take care of Shen Jianjun, a patient, but she also had to help prepare three meals a day for them and visit him in his ward whenever she had the chance. It can be said that she was very busy and tired. Thinking of her, Gu Jingyuan felt distressed.
After going up the stairs and taking a few steps, they arrived at the room they had booked. Xue's mother opened the door with her key and the two of them walked in.
"Who?" Shen Qingmiao scolded.
When Shen Qingmiao heard the noise, he immediately turned his head cautiously. If he saw any danger, he would immediately take out the equipment in the space to protect his personal safety. He only lowered his guard after seeing a familiar figure.
It turned out that her aunt and Gu Jingyuan had returned, causing her to worry for nothing.
Suddenly Shen Qingmiao seemed to remember something and quickly ran to the toilet, "Wait a minute, you sit down first."
Oh my God, she was seen by Gu Jingyuan with her hair disheveled and unwashed.
So embarrassing!
Gu Jingyuan and Xue's mother looked at each other and saw the confusion in each other's eyes.
What happened to Qingmiao?
It took me a while to figure it out.
It was a long time before Shen Qingmiao came out of the bathroom, and he was already dressed neatly.
Seeing Shen Qingmiao coming out, Xue's mother immediately called out, "Qingmiao, come here quickly. Jingyuan brought breakfast. After we finish eating, we can go to the city."
The breakfast that Gu Jingyuan brought was opened and placed on the table, and Xue's mother had already started eating.
Seeing this, Shen Qingmiao came over to sit next to Xue's mother without hesitation, picked up a bun and took a bite. Noticing that Gu Jingyuan was looking at him not far away, Shen Qingmiao smiled widely.
"Breakfast, thank you." Shen Qingmiao said with a smile, raising the bun in his hand.
"You're welcome." Gu Jingyuan replied, still keeping his eyes on her.
All I can see is her.
After breakfast, Gu Jingyuan and his group set off for the city. Shen Qingmiao, who was going there for the first time, was a little excited and had a curious look on his face throughout the whole process.
What would the provincial capital look like at this time? Shen Qingmiao couldn't help but wonder in his heart.
So what if it’s better than the small county town at home?
With all their curiosity, the group finally arrived in the city. The first place they visited was the Friendship Store, which was not available in the small county town of Qinghe County.
I heard that many of the things inside were imported from foreign countries, so Shen Qingmiao wanted to take a look.
When walking on the street, Gu Jingyuan always let Shen Qingmiao walk inside while he walked outside, so that he could protect Shen Qingmiao at any time. When there were many people, he would extend his hand to block Shen Qingmiao to prevent her from being bumped into.
He protected Shen Qingmiao the whole time.
Xue's mother couldn't help but feel sad when she saw it. Her son had indeed become someone else's.
At this moment, she suddenly thought of Father Gu.
Then I remembered that I hadn't called Gu's father for a long time, and I started to feel guilty for some reason.
Xue’s mother: The old man hasn’t called me these days. I wonder if he is waiting for me to go back and settle the score with me.
It is indeed very suspicious that Gu's father has not called for several days. Compared with his previous behavior, it is quite abnormal.
Forget it, let’s talk about it when we get back.
While Xue's mother was lost in thought, the three of them had already arrived at the entrance of the Friendship Store.
